<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">AirGate PCS, Inc. has proposed a financial
restructuring through the recapitalization plan described in
this prospectus and solicitation statement. The recapitalization
plan consists of the exchange offer and consent solicitation and
the other related transactions described herein. Pursuant to an
amended support agreement, and subject to certain conditions,
holders representing more than two-thirds of the principal
amount of our currently outstanding notes have agreed to tender
their notes in the exchange offer. If we do not meet the 98%
minimum tender or other conditions to complete the
recapitalization plan, we may pursue a prepackaged plan of
reorganization of AirGate. We are therefore also soliciting
acceptances of a prepackaged plan of reorganization under
Chapter&nbsp;11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. We do not
intend to file a petition for relief under Chapter&nbsp;11 of
the Bankruptcy Code and seek confirmation of the prepackaged
plan if the conditions to the recapitalization plan are
satisfied or waived, including the exchange offer minimum tender
condition and related consents. The recapitalization plan and
the prepackaged plan are collectively referred to as the
&#147;restructuring.&#148; For a description of the
recapitalization plan, see &#147;The Recapitalization
Plan,&#148; beginning on page&nbsp;165, and for a description of
the prepackaged plan, see &#147;The Prepackaged Plan,&#148;
beginning on page&nbsp;179.

<FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each holder of our 13.5%
Senior Subordinated Discount Notes due 2009, which we refer to
as our &#147;old notes,&#148; will receive, for each $1,000 of
aggregate principal amount due at maturity that is exchanged in
the exchange offer, 110.1384 shares of our common stock, without
giving effect to the reverse stock split described herein, and
$533.33 in principal amount of our new 9&nbsp;3/8% Senior
Subordinated Secured Notes due 2009, which we refer to as our
&#147;new notes.&#148; Pursuant to a support agreement, we
previously made a private offer to holders of approximately 67%
of our outstanding old notes to exchange their old notes for
shares of our common stock and new notes, on terms and
conditions substantially identical to those in this public
exchange offer. Consummation of the public and private exchange
offers will occur concurrently, following satisfaction of all
conditions. The shares of our common stock and the new notes to
be issued in the private exchange offer will be restricted
securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
will contain a legend to this effect. We will file a resale
registration statement to permit resale of these securities
immediately following consummation of the recapitalization plan.

<FONT size="2">We are a Sprint network partner with the right to
sell Sprint&nbsp;PCS products and services in our territory. Two
recent surveys ranked Sprint last among national wireless
carriers in terms of customer satisfaction with customer care.
We believe actual or perceived poor customer care contributes to
higher churn. AirGate is examining a change in its billing and
customer care provider from Sprint to another provider. Whether
we change providers depends on a number of factors, including
our estimate of improvements to our business which may result
from a change in providers, the cost of alternative providers
compared to Sprint, the costs Sprint may charge to accommodate
the transition to a new provider, the costs Sprint may charge
for services that remain with Sprint, either through our choice
or because Sprint requires us to accept these services, and the
resolution of other issues with Sprint. Sprint has proposed
changes in our underlying economic relationship on terms similar
to those accepted by other Sprint network partners. Under this
modified arrangement, Sprint would provide fixed service costs
for up to three years at lower rates than those currently
charged, subject to certain exceptions and would agree to fix
the reciprocal roaming rate charged among Sprint and its network
partners at $0.058 per minute for at least three years. We are
evaluating all of these alternatives. See

to terminate Sprint customer care and billing, we would be

Restructuring</FONT></B>

<DIV align="left"><FONT size="1">

</FONT></DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We became a Sprint PCS network partner in 1998
and completed an initial public offering in September 1999. At
that time, our business plan projected that historic high rates
of growth in the wireless industry would continue through 2009
as wireless penetration rates in the United States grew to above
70%, which would in turn support pricing levels for wireless
products and services. As a result, we believed that we would
have sufficient cash flow to service our high level of debt. Our
growth rates through mid-2002 met or exceeded our expectations,
despite slower subscriber growth in the industry in 2001 than in
prior years. Nevertheless, we have incurred operating losses and
experienced continued net losses for every fiscal year since we
commenced operations. Since mid-2002, our rate of subscriber
growth has slowed significantly, our industry has become more
competitive than we expected and our market share has declined
as the Sprint market share has declined. Consequently, AirGate
had a net loss of $42.2&nbsp;million for fiscal 2003 and had a
stockholders&#146; deficit of $377.0&nbsp;million at
September&nbsp;30, 2003. In addition, AirGate has an accumulated
deficit of $1.3&nbsp;billion at September&nbsp;30, 2003.

<DIV align="left"><FONT size="1">

</FONT></DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Further, our dependence on Sprint has, over time,
created additional challenges that have compounded the problems
created by these market conditions. Among the most serious
problems was Sprint&#146;s introduction of the Clear Pay program
targeted at sub-prime credit quality subscribers in early 2001,
which resulted in unexpectedly high levels of customer turnover
or churn and higher levels of bad debt in 2002 and early 2003.
In addition, Sprint has made unilateral decisions over time that
have had an adverse impact on our revenue, such as the reduction
in the reciprocal roaming rate paid by Sprint and its network
partners. Further, we have not realized the benefits of scale
that were expected when we agreed to designate Sprint as our
principal service provider for various services, including
billing, collections and customer care. Finally, we believe
Sprint&#146;s failure to provide customer care in a manner
consistent with that of our competitors has contributed to
higher rates of churn.
</FONT>

<DIV align="left"><FONT size="1">

</FONT></DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">These factors and the lack of additional sources
of capital led us to revise our business plan to, among other
things, account for slower growth, increased competition, higher
Sprint costs and lower reciprocal roaming rates, and to focus on
increased EBITDA and cash conservation by reducing spending for
capital and operating costs. This revised business plan led us
to examine alternatives for a capital restructuring.

<FONT size="2">After drawing the remaining available
$9.0&nbsp;million credit under our $153.5&nbsp;million credit
facility in August, 2003, we have no outside funding
alternatives and are completely dependent on available cash and
operating cash flow to operate our business and fund our capital
needs. We have significant cash principal and interest payments
under our indebtedness coming due during the period from 2005
through 2009. In November 2003, we entered into an amendment to
our credit facility as described herein under &#147;Description
of Our Credit Facility&nbsp;&#151; The Amendment of Our Credit
Facility.&#148; Certain changes are effective and are used in
determining compliance with financial covenants for periods
ended December&nbsp;31, 2003 and thereafter. These changes
clarify certain ambiguities and modify the definition of, and
period for calculating, EBITDA for purposes of complying with
financial covenants under the credit facility. Some of the
changes will assist us in complying with key financial covenants
for the next twelve months. Under our current business plan, our
compliance with the financial covenants under our credit
facility is not assured and after March 2005, our ability to
generate operating cash flow to cover our debt service and other
capital requirements and meet the financial covenants in our
credit facility is significantly uncertain. In addition, there
is substantial risk under our current business plan that we
would not have sufficient liquidity to meet our cash interest
obligations under the old notes beginning in 2006.

principal amount due at maturity of the outstanding old notes.
The support agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of,

have agreed, subject to the terms thereof, to tender their old

changes to the old notes indenture. These noteholders will
receive restricted shares of our common stock and new notes.
Because these holders also have agreed, subject to certain
conditions, to accept the prepackaged plan, we believe it is
likely that we would have enough acceptances to confirm the

a recapitalization for United States Federal income tax purposes

<FONT size="2">As a result of the recapitalization plan, for
federal income tax purposes we will realize income from the
cancellation of indebtedness, or COD. Since our inception in
1998, we have generated significant net operating losses, or
&#147;NOLs.&#148; We expect to use these NOLs to offset the
cancellation of indebtedness income that we will realize as a
result of the restructuring. However, if we were to experience
an ownership change for tax purposes prior to our completion of
the restructuring, such ownership change would severely restrict
our use of the NOLs to offset the COD income. As a result, we
would have insufficient NOLs to fully offset our realization of
COD income upon completion of the restructuring and, therefore,
could be subject to material federal income taxes.

<FONT size="2">As part of the recapitalization plan, we are
proposing to implement a 1 for 5 reverse split of our common
stock. The reverse stock split, by itself, will not have any
effect on the stockholders&#146; proportionate equity interests
in our Company, other than as a result of the elimination of
fractional shares. The reverse stock split will not have any
economic impact on the aggregate capital represented by the
shares of common stock for financial statement purposes. The
adoption of the reverse stock split will reduce the number of
shares of stock authorized for issuance by a factor of five. The
rights and privileges of holders of shares of common stock will
remain the same after the reverse stock split. All of our
outstanding options and warrants will be proportionately
adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We propose to implement the reverse stock split
in connection with the relisting of our common stock on the
Nasdaq National Market. We currently intend to consummate the
relisting either concurrently with the consummation of the
exchange offer, or as promptly as possible thereafter. Pursuant
to the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, we must comply with
requirements regarding, among other things, number of shares
outstanding, market value of publicly held shares, total revenue
and total assets and a minimum bid price of $5 per share. We
currently meet each of these requirements other than the minimum
bid price requirement. We believe that the 1 to 5 ratio of the
reverse stock split is sufficiently high to increase the bid
price of our common stock significantly above the $5 minimum
requirement.

other claims) will receive the same consideration in exchange

<FONT size="2">We are seeking acceptances of the prepackaged
plan from all impaired classes of claims and equity interests,
including holders of the old notes, that are entitled to vote on
the prepackaged plan. Under the prepackaged plan, creditors and
stockholders who hold substantially similar legal claims or
interests with respect to the distribution of the value of our
assets are divided into separate &#147;classes&#148; of claims
or interests. Under the Bankruptcy Code, the separate classes of
claims and interests must be designated either as
&#147;impaired&#148; (affected by the plan) or
&#147;unimpaired&#148; (unaffected by the plan). For the
prepackaged plan to be confirmed by the bankruptcy court without
invoking the &#147;cram down&#148; provisions, each class of
claims or interests that is impaired must vote to accept the
prepackaged plan. An impaired class of claims (such as the
holders of our old notes (Class&nbsp;3)) is deemed to accept a
plan of reorganization under the provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code if holders of at least two-thirds in dollar amount and more
than one-half in number of the holders of claims who actually
cast ballots vote to accept the prepackaged plan. An impaired
class of interests (such as our common stock (Class&nbsp;7)) is
deemed to accept a plan of reorganization if the holders of at
least two-thirds in amount of the interests in such class who
actually cast ballots vote to accept the prepackaged plan.

that Class&nbsp;3 claim holders will approve the prepackaged

common stock, which are classified as Class&nbsp;7 equity under
the prepackaged plan, as impaired and will be soliciting,
through a separate proxy statement filed with the SEC, their
acceptance of the prepackaged plan. We have elected to treat the
holders of &#147;above market&#148; warrants and stock options,
which are classified as Class&nbsp;8 equity under the
prepackaged plan, as unimpaired. Under the prepackaged plan,
&#147;above market&#148; warrants and stock options are those
outstanding warrants and stock options that have an exercise

by holders of Class&nbsp;7 equity interests would require the
affirmative vote to accept the prepackaged plan from holders of
at least two-thirds in amount of the equity interests in the
class who actually cast ballots. In the event that Class&nbsp;3
claims holders approve the prepackaged plan, we anticipate that
we would be in a position to consider a &#147;cram down&#148; of
the Class&nbsp;7 equity interests pursuant to Section&nbsp;1129
of the Bankruptcy Code, which permits the confirmation of a plan
of reorganization even if the plan of reorganization is not
accepted by all impaired classes, so long as at least one
impaired class of claims has accepted the plan of reorganization
and as long as no class of claims or interests junior to the
dissenting class receives any distributions. See &#147;The

consisting of &#147;below market&#148; warrants and stock
options, which are classified as Class&nbsp;9 equity, will not
be entitled to receive any distribution pursuant to the
prepackaged plan, that class of equity interests will be deemed
to have not accepted the prepackaged plan. &#147;Below
market&#148; warrants and stock options are those outstanding
warrants and stock options which have an exercise price in
excess of the market price of our common stock on the voting
record date for the prepackaged plan. Consequently, if our board
of directors decides to file the prepackaged plan we will seek
to take advantage of the &#147;cram down&#148; provisions of
Section&nbsp;1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, at least with respect
to this class of equity interests. We believe that it is highly
likely that we will be able to obtain approval for the
prepackaged plan from at least one class of claims and, because
there are no classes of equity interests ranking junior to the
classes of &#147;below market&#148; warrants and stock options,
we expect that we will be in a position to &#147;cram down&#148;
that class of equity interests. Holders of interests or claims
in any class affected by the &#147;cram down&#148; will receive
the same treatment as they would have received had the class
approved the prepackaged plan.

<FONT size="2">Under the prepackaged plan, we plan to assume
executory contracts, including the management agreement with
Sprint. We have a number of disputes with Sprint. In order to
assume our management agreement with Sprint, we would be
required to cure any defaults the bankruptcy court requires.
While we do not believe we are in default under our Sprint
agreements, Sprint may not agree and may seek to require us to
pay all outstanding disputes as a condition to the assumption of
our management agreement with Sprint. Such an action could delay
the implementation of the prepackaged plan as we seek to resolve
contract disputes, and if we do not prevail, we could be
required to pay all outstanding disputed amounts Sprint asserts
we owe, which is $11.8&nbsp;million (including both invoiced and
uninvoiced claims) at September&nbsp;30, 2003, and continue to
pay increased fees in the future. Sprint could also seek to
terminate our agreements with Sprint because a bankruptcy filing
would constitute an event of termination under the management
agreement. Sprint&#146;s ability to terminate an executory
contract, such as our agreements with Sprint, are limited by
sections 541(c)(1) and 365(e)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code which
provide that a party to an executory contract may not terminate
a contract with a debtor simply because the debtor commences a
bankruptcy case. In addition, Sprint has entered into a consent
and agreement with the administrative agent under our credit
facility which prohibits Sprint from exercising certain of it
rights and remedies, including its right to terminate the Sprint
management agreement, until our obligations under the credit
facility have been satisfied in full.

<FONT size="2">The summary statement of operations and balance
sheet data presented below is derived from our audited
consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 1999, and the years ended
September&nbsp;30, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003. Such data includes
the results of operations of iPCS subsequent to
November&nbsp;30, 2001, its date of acquisition, but as a result
of iPCS&#146;s Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy filing, does not
include the results of operations of iPCS subsequent to
February&nbsp;23, 2003. iPCS filed for Chapter&nbsp;11
bankruptcy on February&nbsp;23, 2003. On October&nbsp;17, 2003,
the Company irrevocably transferred all of its shares of iPCS
common stock to a trust organized under Delaware law. As of the
date of this transfer, the disposition will be accounted for as
a discontinued operation.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, iPCS&#146;s results of operations are not
consolidated with AirGate&#146;s results subsequent to
February&nbsp;23, 2003 and the accounts of iPCS are recorded as
an investment using the cost method of accounting. The
comparability of our results for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003 to the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2002 are affected by the exclusion of the results of iPCS for
the periods prior to November&nbsp;30, 2001 and after
February&nbsp;23, 2003. As a result, the exclusion of iPCS
results after February&nbsp;23, 2003 has the effect of lowering
revenues and expenses in the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003
compared to the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, which is
partially offset by the exclusion of results for iPCS prior to
November&nbsp;30, 2001.

to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may
affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock
and also may affect the ability of our current stockholders to
sell their securities in any market that might develop. In
addition, the SEC has adopted a number of rules to regulate
&#147;penny stocks.&#148; Such rules include Rules&nbsp;3a51-1,
15-g1, 15-g2, 15g-3, 15g-4, 15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our common
stock may constitute &#147;penny stocks&#148; within the meaning
of the rules. These rules may further affect the ability of
owners of our common stock to sell our securities in any market
that might develop for them.

<FONT size="2">Stockholders should also be aware that, according
to the SEC, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent
years from patterns of fraud and abuse. We are aware of the
abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock
market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate
the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate
in the market, management will strive within the confines of
practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from
being established with respect to our securities.

old notes will receive shares of our common stock representing
56% of our common stock, assuming all outstanding old notes are
tendered in the exchange offer. Before the restructuring, the
majority of our outstanding old notes were held by a few
investors. Consequently, these investors individually will hold
high concentrations of our common stock immediately after the
restructuring. The largest percentage of our common stock held
by any single noteholder as a result of the consummation of the
financial restructuring is expected to be approximately 12.5%.
This noteholder has requested, and we have agreed to provide,
certain registration rights to permit such noteholder&#146;s
resale of our common stock and new notes. In addition, we have
agreed, pursuant to a registration rights agreement, to use our
reasonable best efforts to file and maintain the effectiveness
of a shelf registration to permit the resale of our common stock

and additional interest to the date of repurchase. If a change
of control or asset sale were to occur, there can be no
assurance that we would have sufficient funds to pay the
purchase price for all of the new notes that we might be
required to purchase. Our credit facility limits our ability to
purchase the new notes in the event of a change of control or
asset sale. Our future indebtedness may also contain
restrictions on our ability to repurchase the new notes upon
certain events, including transactions that could constitute a
change of control or asset sale under the new notes indenture.
Our failure to purchase, or give notice of purchase of, the new
notes would be a default under the new notes indenture, which
would in turn be a default under our credit facility. In
addition, a change of control will constitute an event of
default under our credit facility. A default under our credit
facility would result in an event of default under the new notes
indenture if the lenders were to accelerate the debt under our
credit facility. If the foregoing occurs, we may not have enough
assets to satisfy all obligations under our credit facility and
the new notes indenture. All payments on the new notes and the
related guarantees will be blocked in the event of a payment
default on our designated senior debt and may be blocked up to
179&nbsp;consecutive days in the event of defaults other than
payment defaults on our designated senior debt that permit the

significant net operating losses, or &#147;NOLs.&#148; We expect
to use these NOLs to offset the cancellation of indebtedness
income that we will realize as a result of the restructuring.
However, if we were to experience an ownership change for tax
purposes prior to our completion of the restructuring, such
ownership change would severely restrict our use of the NOLs to
offset the COD income. As a result, we would have insufficient
NOLs to fully offset our realization of COD income upon
completion of the restructuring and, therefore, could be subject
to material federal income taxes. Because we will not know if we
have experienced an ownership change for tax purposes until our
5% stockholders file their Schedules 13D or 13G (which may be as
late as February&nbsp;14, 2004), we cannot assure you that we
will not be subject to tax on the COD income. If we are required
to pay tax on significant COD income, we may not have sufficient
funds to pay the tax or meet our other obligations. As of
November&nbsp;1, 2003, and based on information available to us,
we estimate that we have experienced a 30% change in ownership.

procedural or related to the adequacy of disclosure, such as,
for example, that the disclosures or other procedural compliance
required for a prepackaged plan to be confirmed are in any way
deficient. Any of the reasons may delay the confirmation and
effectiveness of the prepackaged plan, and some of these reasons
may result in the bankruptcy court not confirming the
prepackaged plan. In addition, if we do not file the prepackaged
plan by February&nbsp;15, 2004, the holders of old notes that

<I><FONT size="2">Classification of Claims or
Interests.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> Section&nbsp;1122 of the
Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan may place a claim or an
interest in a particular class only if such claim or interest is
substantially similar to the other claims or interests of such
class. We believe that the classification of claims and
interests under the prepackaged plan complies with the
requirements set forth in the Bankruptcy Code. However, once a
Chapter&nbsp;11 case has been commenced, a claim or interest
holder could challenge the classification. In such event, the
cost of the prepackaged plan and the time needed to confirm the
prepackaged plan could increase and the bankruptcy court may not
agree with our classification of claims and interests.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">If the bankruptcy court concludes that the
classification of claims and equity interests under the
prepackaged plan does not comply with the requirements of the
Bankruptcy Code, we may need to modify the prepackaged plan.
Such modification could require a resolicitation of votes on the
prepackaged plan. If the bankruptcy court determined that our
classification of claims and equity interests was not
appropriate or if the court determined that the different
treatment provided to claim or interest holders was unfair or
inappropriate, the prepackaged plan may not be confirmed. If
this occurs, the amended plan of reorganization that would
ultimately be confirmed would likely be less attractive to
certain classes of our claim and equity interest holders than
the prepackaged plan, and we would expect that the treatment of
our equity security holders, particularly our existing
stockholders, under an alternate plan would be adversely
affected.

Sprint&#146;s system. Resolving these and other issues related
to rejecting the services agreement could increase the costs of
any such outsourcing and delay the benefits of any outsourcing.
If we are unable to seamlessly outsource these services, our
business could be disrupted. In addition, the increased costs of
outsourcing could limit our ability to lower our operating costs.

results, liquidity and capital resources is the fact that we
have limited funding options. On August&nbsp;8, 2003 we drew the

We currently have no additional sources of working capital other
than cash on hand, which was $54.1&nbsp;million at

substantial risk that we could not access the capital or credit

<FONT size="2">We have seen a continuation of competitive
pressures in the wireless telecommunications market causing
carriers to offer plans with increasingly large bundles of
minutes of use at lower prices which may compete with the
calling plans we offer, including the Sprint calling plans we
support. There is no assurance that subscriber growth will not
be less than we project or that average revenue per user will
not be lower than we project. Increased price competition may
lead to lower average monthly revenues per user than we
anticipate. See &#147;&#151;&nbsp;Risks Related to our
Business&nbsp;&#151; Risks Related to Our Relationship with
Sprint.&#148; In addition, the lower reciprocal roaming rate
that Sprint has implemented will reduce our roaming revenue,
which may not be offset by the reduction in our roaming expense.
If our revenues are less than we anticipate, it could materially
adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition and results
of operation. We estimate that, based on our projections for
fiscal 2004, every $1 reduction in monthly ARPU will increase
our annual operating loss by approximately $3.9&nbsp;million. In
addition, based on our projections for fiscal year 2004, we
estimate that every 1,000 reduction in monthly gross subscriber
activations will increase our annual operating loss by
approximately $800,000.

sales of handset and other costs to acquire subscribers.
Further, as described below under &#147;Risks Related to Our
Relationship With Sprint,&#148; a substantial portion of costs
of service and roaming are attributable to fees and charges we
pay Sprint for billing and collections, customer care and other
back-office support. Our ability to manage costs charged by or
through Sprint is limited. If our costs are more than we
anticipate, the actual amount of funds needed to implement our
strategy and business plan may exceed our estimates, which could
have a material adverse affect on our liquidity, financial
condition and results of operations. We estimate, based on our
projections for fiscal year 2004, that for every 1% that
aggregate Sprint fees exceed our planned expectations, it will
increase our annual operating loss by approximately $400,000.

<FONT size="2">The wireless personal communications services
industry in general, and Sprint and its network partners in
particular, have experienced a higher rate of subscriber
turnover, commonly known as churn, as compared to cellular
industry averages. We believe this churn rate was driven higher
in 2002 and early 2003 due to the NDASL and Clear Pay programs
required by Sprint and the removal of deposit requirements as
described elsewhere in this prospectus and solicitation
statement. Our business plan assumes that churn will be
relatively constant in fiscal 2004, but will decline
significantly thereafter. Although churn declined in the first
nine months of fiscal 2003, churn rates increased in the quarter
ended September&nbsp;30, 2003. Due to significant competition in
our industry and general economic conditions, among other
things, churn may increase and our future rate of subscriber
turnover may be higher than projected or our historical rate.
Factors that may contribute to higher churn include:

<FONT size="2">Implementation of the Federal Communications
Commission&#146;s (&#147;FCC&#148;) wireless local number
portability (&#147;LNP&#148;) requirement will enable wireless
subscribers to keep their telephone numbers when switching to
another carrier. As of November&nbsp;24, 2003, all covered CMRS
providers, including broadband PCS, cellular and SMR licensees,
were required to allow customers to retain, subject to
geographical limitations, their existing telephone number when
switching from one telecommunications carrier to another.
Current rules require that covered CMRS providers have to
provide LNP in the 100 largest metropolitan statistical areas,
in compliance with certain FCC performance criteria, upon
request from another carrier (CMRS provider or local exchange
carrier). For metropolitan statistical areas outside the largest
100, CMRS providers that receive a request to allow an end user
to port their number must be capable of doing so within six
months of receiving the request or within six months after
November&nbsp;24, 2003, whichever is later. Porting is currently
mandated in approximately 35% of our markets. We currently plan
to implement WLNP in the remainder of our markets on
May&nbsp;24, 2004. The overall impact of this mandate is
uncertain. We anticipate that the wireless LNP mandate will
impose increased operating costs on all CMRS providers,
including us, and may result in lower revenues, higher churn and
higher subscriber acquisition and retention costs.

<FONT size="2">Sprint has licenses covering 10 MHz of spectrum
in our territory. As the number of subscribers in our territory
increases, this limited amount of licensed spectrum may not be
able to accommodate increases in call volume, may lead to
increased dropped and blocked calls and may limit our ability to
offer enhanced services, all of which could result in increased
subscriber turnover and adversely affect our financial condition
and results of operations.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Further, in January 2003, the FCC rules imposing
limits on the amount of spectrum that can be held by one
provider in a specific market was lifted. The FCC now relies on
case-by-case review of transactions involving transfers of
control of CMRS spectrum in connection with its public interest
review of all license transfers. In light of this change in
regulatory review, competition may increase to the extent that
licenses are transferred from smaller stand-alone operators to
larger, better capitalized, and more experienced wireless
communications operators. These larger wireless communications
operators may be able to offer customers network features not
offered by us. The actions of these larger wireless
communications operators could negatively affect our churn,
ability to attract new subscribers, ARPU, cost to acquire
subscribers and operating costs per subscriber.

tower facilities shared with one or more wireless providers. A
few tower companies own a large portion of these leased tower
sites. Approximately 75% of the towers leased by us are owned by
four tower companies (and their affiliates). If a master
co-location agreement with one of these tower companies were to
terminate, or if one of these tower companies were unable to
support our use of its tower sites, we would have to find new
sites or we may be required to rebuild that portion of our
network. In addition, because of this concentration of ownership
of our cell sites, our financial condition and results of
operations could be materially and adversely affected if we are
unable to renew expiring leases with such tower companies on
favorable terms, or in the event of a disruption in any of their
business operations. For example, if our agreement with our
largest tower company were to expire without successful
renegotiation, we would be required to relocate approximately
34% of our cell site locations, causing disruption to our
network operations.

<FONT size="2">We rely on Sprint&#146;s roaming agreements with
its competitors to provide automatic roaming capabilities to
subscribers in many of the areas of the United States not
covered by Sprint&#146;s PCS network. Competitors may be able to
offer coverage in areas not served by Sprint&#146;s PCS network
or may be able to offer roaming rates that are lower than those
offered by Sprint. Competitors are seeking to reduce access to
their networks through actions pending with the FCC. Moreover,
AT&#38;T Wireless has sought reconsideration of an FCC ruling in
order to expedite elimination of the engineering standard
(&#147;AMPS&#148;)&nbsp;for the dominant air interface on which
Sprint&#146;s subscribers roam. If AT&#38;T Wireless is
successful and the FCC eliminated this standard before Sprint
can transition its handsets to different standards, customers of
Sprint could be unable to roam in those markets where cellular
operators cease to offer their AMPS network for roaming.
Further, on September&nbsp;24, 2002, the FCC modified its rules
to eliminate, after a five-year transition period, the
requirement that carriers provide analog service compatible with
AMPS specifications. If this requirement is eliminated before
Sprint can transition its handsets to different standards,
customers of Sprint could be unable to roam in those markets
where cellular operators cease to offer their AMPS network for
roaming.

<FONT size="2">Over time, Sprint has increased fees charged to
AirGate and other network partners and has added fees that were
not anticipated when the agreements with Sprint were entered
into. Sprint also sought to collect money from us that we
believe is not authorized under the agreements. In addition,
Sprint has also imposed additional programs, requirements and
conditions that have adversely affected our financial
performance. If these increases, additional charges and changes
continue, our operating results, liquidity and capital resources
could be adversely affected. As of September&nbsp;30, 2003, we
have disputed approximately $8.9&nbsp;million in invoices for
such increases and additional charges, but those issues have not
been resolved. While we believe that we have adequately reserved
for these disputed amounts, if they are resolved in favor of
Sprint and against AirGate, the payment of this amount money
could adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources. The
resolution of all disputes in favor of Sprint and payment of
disputed amounts will reduce our cash position at
September&nbsp;30, 2003 of $54.1&nbsp;million by approximately
$8.9&nbsp;million.

<FONT size="2">We do not own the licenses to operate our

agreements remaining in effect and not being terminated. All of
our subscribers have purchased Sprint PCS products and services
to date, and we do not anticipate any change in the near future.
The agreements between Sprint and us are not perpetual. Our
management agreement automatically renews at the expiration of
the 20-year initial term (July&nbsp;22, 2018) for an additional
10-year period unless we are in material default. Sprint can
choose not to renew our management agreement at the expiration
of the ten-year renewal term or any subsequent ten-year renewal
term. In any event, our management agreement terminates in
50&nbsp;years.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In addition, subject to the provisions of the
consent and agreement, these agreements can be terminated for
breach of any material term, including, among others, failure to
pay, marketing, build-out and network operational requirements.
Many of these requirements are extremely technical and detailed
in nature. In addition, many of these requirements can be
changed by Sprint with little notice. As a result, we may not
always be in compliance with all requirements of the Sprint
agreements. There may be substantial costs associated with
remedying any non-compliance, and such costs may adversely
affect our liquidity, financial condition and results of
operations.

<FONT size="2">In late 2002, Sprint implemented a new PCS to PCS
product offering under which subscribers receive unlimited
buckets of minutes for little or no additional cost, for any
calls made from one Sprint PCS subscriber to another. Pursuant
to our Sprint agreements, we are required to support this
program in our territory. The number of minutes-over-plan
(&#147;MOPs&#148;) used and associated revenues of our
subscribers has dropped. AirGate&#146;s ARPU has declined from
$61 for the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002 to $60 for
the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, while the number
of minutes used for PCS to PCS calls increased from
6&nbsp;million to over 60&nbsp;million minutes per month. In
addition, the program had the effect of switching current
subscribers to the product offering, rather than resulting in a
meaningful increase in new subscribers. In addition to the lost
revenue the PCS to PCS plan causes, it is also generating a
large amount of incremental traffic on our network, which may
increase our capital needs beyond what we have planned.

unable to provide internal support systems in a high quality
manner, or to efficiently outsource those services and systems
through third-party vendors. Cost pressures are expected to
continue to pose a significant challenge to Sprint&#146;s
internal support systems. Additionally, Sprint has made
reductions in its customer service support structure and may
continue to do so in the future, which may have an adverse
effect on our churn rate. Further, Sprint has relied on
third-party vendors for a significant number of important
functions and components of its internal support systems and may
continue to rely on these vendors in the future. We currently
depend on Sprint&#146;s willingness to continue to offer these
services and to provide these services effectively and at
competitive costs. These costs were approximately
$40.0&nbsp;million for AirGate for the fiscal year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003. Our Sprint agreements provide that,
upon nine months prior written notice, Sprint may elect to
terminate any of these services. The inability of Sprint to
provide high quality back office services, or our inability to
use Sprint back office services and third-party vendors&#146;
back office systems, could lead to subscriber dissatisfaction,
increase churn or otherwise increase our costs.

<FONT size="2">Two recent independent surveys have ranked Sprint
last among national carriers in customer service. We believe
that poor customer care is an important cause of increased
churn. To date, Sprint has been unable to provide a level of
service equal to or better than industry averages under the
services agreement. Consequently, outsourcing these services may
be the only alternative to significantly improve churn. We are
exploring ways to outsource billing, collections and customer
care services now provided by Sprint. While the services
agreement allows us to use third-party vendors to provide
certain of these services instead of Sprint, Sprint may seek to
require us to pay high start-up costs to interface with
Sprint&#146;s system and may otherwise seek to delay any such
outsourcing, which could make an outsourcing cost prohibitive,
increase the costs of any such outsourcing and delay the
benefits of any outsourcing. This could limit our ability to
lower our operating costs and reduce churn.

Sprint&#146;s PCS licenses may not be renewed. The FCC has
adopted specific standards to apply to PCS license renewals. Any
failure by Sprint or us to comply with these standards could
cause revocation or forfeiture of Sprint&#146;s PCS licenses for
our territories. If Sprint loses any of its licenses in our
territory, we would be severely restricted in our ability to
conduct business.

</TABLE>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Competition in the wireless communications
industry is intense. According to information it has filed with
the SEC, Sprint believes that the traditional dividing lines
between long distance, local, wireless, and Internet services
are increasingly becoming blurred. Through mergers and various
service integration strategies, major providers, including
Sprint, are striving to provide integrated solutions both within
and across all geographical markets. We do not currently offer
services other than wireless services and may not be able to
effectively compete against competitors with integrated
solutions. Further, the provision of integrated offerings may
increase Sprint&#146;s control over our business.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Competition has caused, and we anticipate that
competition will continue to cause, the market prices for
two-way wireless products and services to decline in the future.
Our ability to compete will depend, in part, on our ability to
anticipate and respond to various competitive factors affecting
the telecommunications industry. Our dependence on Sprint to
develop competitive products and services and the requirement
that we obtain Sprint&#146;s consent to sell local pricing plans
and non-Sprint approved equipment may limit our ability to keep
pace with competitors on the introduction of new products,
services and equipment. Many of our competitors are larger than
us, possess greater financial and technical resources and may
market other services, such as landline telephone service, cable
television and Internet access, with their wireless
communications services. Some of our competitors also have
well-established infrastructures, marketing programs and brand
names. In addition, some of our competitors may be able to offer
regional coverage in areas not served by the Sprint PCS network
or, because of their calling volumes or relationships with other
wireless providers, may be able to offer regional roaming rates
that are lower than those we offer. Additionally, we expect that
existing cellular providers will continue to upgrade their
systems to provide digital wireless communication services
competitive with Sprint. Our success, therefore, is, to a large
extent, dependent on Sprint&#146;s ability to distinguish itself
from competitors by marketing and anticipating and responding to
various competitive factors affecting the wireless industry,
including new services that may be introduced, changes in
consumer preferences, demographic trends, economic conditions
and discount pricing strategies by competitors. To the extent
that Sprint is not able to keep pace with technological advances
or fails to respond timely to changes in competitive factors in
the wireless industry, it could cause us to lose market share or
experience a decline in revenue.

<FONT size="2">There has been a recent trend in the wireless
communications industry towards consolidation of wireless
service providers through joint ventures, reorganizations and
acquisitions. We expect this consolidation to lead to larger
competitors over time. We may be unable to compete successfully
with larger companies that have substantially greater resources
or that offer more services than we do. In addition, we may be
at a competitive disadvantage since we may be more highly
leveraged than many of our competitors.

<FONT size="2">Sprint and its network partners, including
AirGate, have committed significant resources to wireless data
services and our business plan assumes increasing uptake in such
services. That demand may not materialize. Even if such demand
does develop, our ability to deploy and deliver wireless data
services relies, in many instances, on new and unproven
technology. Existing technology may not perform as expected. We
may not be able to obtain new technology to effectively and
economically deliver these services.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The success of wireless data services is
substantially dependent on the ability of Sprint and others to
develop applications for wireless data devices and to develop
and manufacture devices that support wireless applications.
These applications or devices may not be developed or developed
in sufficient quantities to support the deployment of wireless
data services. These services may not be widely introduced and
fully implemented at all or in a timely fashion. These services
may not be successful when they are in place, and customers may
not purchase the services offered.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Consumer needs for wireless data services may be
met by technologies such as 802.11, known as wi-fi, which does
not rely on FCC regulated spectrum. The lack of standardization
across wireless data handsets may contribute to customer
confusion, which could slow acceptance of wireless data
services, or increase customer care costs. Either could
adversely affect our ability to provide these services
profitably. If these services are not successful or costs
associated with implementation and completion of the rollout of
these services materially exceed our current estimates, our
financial condition and prospects cold be materially adversely
affected.

considering or have recently enacted legislation that would
restrict or prohibit the use of a wireless handset while driving
a vehicle or, alternatively, require the use of a hands-free
telephone. Legislation of this sort, if enacted, would require
wireless service providers to provide hands-free enhanced

phones and headsets, so that they can keep generating revenue
from their subscribers, who make many of their calls while on

<FONT size="2">The exchange of old notes for our common stock
and new notes will be accounted for as a troubled debt
restructuring pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No.&nbsp;15, &#147;Accounting by Debtors and Creditors
for Troubled Debt Restructurings&#148; (&#147;SFAS
No.&nbsp;15&#148;) and EITF&nbsp;02-4 &#147;Determining whether
Debtor&#146;s Modification or Exchange of Debt is within the
scope of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;15.&#148; Our outstanding old
notes will be exchanged for 33,041,516&nbsp;shares of our common
stock, before giving effect to the reverse stock split, and
$160.0&nbsp;million in aggregate principal amount of new notes.
In accordance with SFAS No.&nbsp;15, a gain will not be recorded
upon the restructuring as the adjusted carrying amount of the
old notes is less than the maximum future cash payments
(including future interest payments) of the new notes. The
effects of the restructuring will therefore be accounted for as
a reduction in the effective interest rate on the new notes.

<FONT size="2">Transaction costs for the recapitalization plan
are estimated to be $8.9&nbsp;million, including financial
advisor and dealer/ manager, legal, filing, printing and
accounting fees. Costs attributable to the debt are estimated to
be $5.9&nbsp;million and will be expensed as incurred; costs of
approximately $3.0&nbsp;million will be offset against the
carrying amount of the common stock based on values as of
September&nbsp;30, 2003. In addition, approximately
$0.8&nbsp;million relates to financing costs capitalized on the
balance sheet, which were incurred in connection with amendments
to the credit facility. These costs will be amortized to
interest expense over the remaining life of the credit facility.
Additionally, the Company may be required to pay alternative
minimum taxes because net operating loss carry forwards can
offset only 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. The
Company has estimated alternative minimum taxes due of
$0.6&nbsp;million.

DATA</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The selected statement of operations and balance
sheet data presented below is derived from our audited
consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 1999, and the years ended
September&nbsp;30, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003. Such data includes
the results of operations of iPCS subsequent to
November&nbsp;30, 2001, its date of acquisition, but as a result
of iPCS&#146;s Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy filing, does not
include the results of operations of iPCS subsequent to
February&nbsp;23, 2003. iPCS filed for Chapter&nbsp;11
bankruptcy on February&nbsp;23, 2003. On October&nbsp;17, 2003,
the Company irrevocably transferred all of its shares of iPCS
common stock to a trust organized under Delaware law. As of the
date of this transfer, the disposition will be accounted for as
a discontinued operation.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, iPCS&#146;s results of operations are not
consolidated with AirGate&#146;s results subsequent to
February&nbsp;23, 2003 and the accounts of iPCS are recorded as
an investment using the cost method of accounting. The
comparability of our results for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003 to the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2002 are affected by the exclusion of the results of iPCS for
the periods prior to November&nbsp;30, 2001 and after
February&nbsp;23, 2003. As a result, the exclusion of iPCS
results after February&nbsp;23, 2003 has the effect of lowering
revenues and expenses in the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003
compared to the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, which is
partially offset by the exclusion of results for iPCS prior to
November&nbsp;30, 2001.

Subsequent to November&nbsp;30, 2001, the results of operations

Northern District of Georgia for the purpose of effecting a
court-administered reorganization. Subsequent to

<FONT size="2">Transaction costs for the recapitalization plan
are estimated to be $8.9&nbsp;million, including financial
advisor and dealer/ manager, legal, filing, printing and
accounting fees. Costs attributable to the debt are estimated to
be $5.9&nbsp;million and will be expensed as incurred; costs of
approximately $3.0&nbsp;million related to the issuance of
common stock will be offset against the carrying amount of the
common stock. In addition, approximately $0.8&nbsp;million
relates to financing costs capitalized on the balance sheet,
which were incurred in connection with amendments to the credit
facility. These costs will be capitalized and amortized to
interest expense over the remaining life of the credit facility.
Additionally, the Company may be required to pay alternative
minimum taxes because net operating loss carry forwards can
offset only 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. The
Company has estimated alternative minimum taxes due of
$0.6&nbsp;million. The pro forma condensed consolidated balance
sheet gives effect to these payments, and the effect has not
been reflected in the pro forma condensed consolidated statement
of operations.

<FONT size="2">The following summarizes certain key provisions
and accounting related to the recapitalization plan as it
relates to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The
recapitalization plan is further described in the prospectus and
solicitation statement.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The old notes with a carrying value of $252,987
as of September&nbsp;30, 2003 will be exchanged for new notes
with a principal balance of $160,000 and 33,041,516&nbsp;shares
of common stock, which is assumed to be valued at $79,960 as of
September&nbsp;30, 2003, based upon the common stock market
price of $2.42 on that date. The common stock will be valued
based on the market price on the transaction date. The market
price, which will be used to value the common stock, will be
different and the difference may be material and will also
change the effective interest rate of the new notes. An increase
or decrease of $1.00 in the market price of the Company&#146;s
common stock would result in a decrease or increase,
respectively, in the carrying amount of the notes of $33,041. An
increase or decrease in the carrying amount of the debt results
in a decrease or increase, respectively, in the effective
interest rate.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The financial restructuring qualifies as a
troubled debt restructuring in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;15 &#147;Accounting by
Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings&#148; and
EITF&nbsp;02-4, &#147;Determining Whether a Debtors Modification
or Exchange of Debt is within the scope of FASB statement
No.&nbsp;15.&#148; Based on the proposed recapitalization plan
and assumptions, there will not be a gain on the transaction
since total future cash payments, including interest, exceed the
remaining carrying amount of the old notes after reducing the
old notes by the assumed value of the common stock.

<FONT size="2">On July&nbsp;22, 1998, AirGate entered into
management and related agreements with Sprint whereby it became
the network partner of Sprint with the right to provide 100%
digital PCS products and services under the Sprint brand names
in AirGate&#146;s territory in the southeastern United States.
In January 2000, AirGate began commercial operations with the
launch of four markets covering 2.2&nbsp;million residents in
AirGate&#146;s territory. By September&nbsp;30, 2000, AirGate
had launched commercial PCS service in all 21 of its markets. On
September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate had 359,460 subscribers and
total network coverage of approximately 6.1&nbsp;million
residents or 83% of the 7.4&nbsp;million residents in its
territory.

<FONT size="2">Under AirGate&#146;s long-term agreements with
Sprint, we manage our network on Sprint&#146;s licensed spectrum
and have the right to use the Sprint brand names royalty-free
during our PCS affiliation with Sprint. We also have access to
Sprint&#146;s national marketing support and distribution
programs and are generally required to buy network equipment and
subscriber handsets from Sprint or vendors approved by Sprint.
The agreements generally provide that these purchases are to be
made at the same discounted rates offered by vendors to Sprint
based on its large volume purchases. Sprint pays AirGate a
management fee which generally consists of 92% of collected
revenues. We are entitled to 100% of revenues collected from the
sale of handsets and accessories and on roaming revenues
received when customers of Sprint and Sprint&#146;s other
network partners make a wireless call on our PCS network.

<FONT size="2">On November&nbsp;30, 2001, AirGate acquired iPCS,
a network partner of Sprint with 37&nbsp;markets in the
midwestern states of Michigan, Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska. The
acquisition of iPCS increased the total resident population in
the Company&#146;s markets from approximately 7.1&nbsp;million
to approximately 14.5 million. On February&nbsp;23, 2003, iPCS
filed a Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy petition in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia for the
purpose of effecting a court-administered reorganization. In
connection with the financial restructuring described elsewhere
in this prospectus and solicitation statement, on
October&nbsp;17, 2003, we transferred our shares of iPCS common
stock to a trust organized under Delaware law for the benefit of
our stockholders. For more information on this transfer, please

<FONT size="2">During the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
AirGate&#146;s net loss was $7.8&nbsp;million, which was
positively affected by $1.9&nbsp;million of special settlements
received from Sprint with respect to E911 and USF items. During
the quarter, revenues were $89.3&nbsp;million, compared to
$87.4&nbsp;million for the same period in 2002. Monthly
recurring subscriber charges increased slightly, as minutes over
plan paid by subscribers continues to decline. AirGate&#146;s
operating expenses were $86.4&nbsp;million, compared to
$106.9&nbsp;million for the same period in 2002. Operating
expenses increased slightly over the quarter ended June&nbsp;30,
2003, primarily due to expenses incurred in connection with the
financial restructuring. In addition, customer turnover, or
&#147;churn,&#148; reached 3.41% during the quarter ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003. Churn has improved to lower levels in
October and November, however, the implementation of wireless
local number portability in 35% of our markets make churn trends
more difficult to predict in the near term. Wireless local
number portability has not had a significant effect on our
business since its November&nbsp;24, 2003 implementation;
however, its impact during the quarter ending December&nbsp;31,
2003 and beyond is difficult to predict. See &#147;Risk

<FONT size="2">We experienced a decrease in the number of net
new subscribers in the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2003 of
approximately 4,700&nbsp;subscribers, in part due to higher
churn, the loss of certain distribution channels, declining
market share, and an increase in the number of competing
wireless calling plans. Our costs to add each new subscriber
increased in the quarter, due in large part to lower gross
subscriber additions and higher than anticipated handset upgrade
costs.

<FONT size="2">In contemplation of the proposed restructuring,
AirGate entered into an amendment to its credit facility on
November&nbsp;30, 2003. Certain changes are effective and are
used in determining compliance with financial covenants for
periods ended December&nbsp;31, 2003 and thereafter. These
changes clarify certain ambiguities and modify the definition
of, and period for calculating, EBITDA for purposes of complying
with financial covenants under the credit facility. Management
expects these changes to generally assist AirGate in complying
with these financial covenants for the next twelve months. Other
changes are not effective unless the restructuring is completed.

increased the deposit amount in February 2003. The Company
believes that the re-imposition of and increase in deposit

collection risk. Additionally, the Company has experienced
improvements in the credit quality of its subscriber base.
Accordingly, in March 2003 the Company ceased recording this

<FONT size="2">The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered
or products have been delivered, the price to the buyer is fixed
and determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Effective July&nbsp;1, 2003 the Company adopted Emerging Issues
Task Force (&#147;EITF&#148;) No.&nbsp;00-21, &#147;Accounting
for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Element
Deliverables.&#148; The EITF guidance addresses how to account
for arrangements that may involve multiple revenue-generating
activities, i.e., the delivery or performance of multiple
products, services, and/or rights to use assets. In applying
this guidance, separate contracts with the same party, entered
into at or near the same time, will be presumed to be a bundled
transaction, and the consideration will be measured and
allocated to the separate units based on their relative fair
values. The consensus guidance is applicable to agreements
entered into for quarters beginning after June&nbsp;15, 2003.
The adoption of EITF 00-21 has required evaluation of each
arrangement entered into by the Company for each sales channel.
The Company will continue to monitor arrangements with its sales
channels to determine if any changes in revenue recognition
would need to be made in the future. The adoption of
EITF&nbsp;00-21 has resulted in substantially all of the
activation fee revenue generated from Company-owned retail
stores and associated costs being recognized at the time the
related wireless handset is sold and it is classified as
equipment revenue and cost of equipment, respectively. Upon
adoption of EITF&nbsp;00-21, previously deferred revenues and
costs will continue to be amortized over the remaining estimated
life of a subscriber, not to exceed 30&nbsp;months. Revenue and
costs for activations at other retail locations will continue to
be deferred and amortized over their estimated lives. The
adoption of EITF&nbsp;00-21 had the effect of increasing
equipment revenue by $0.4&nbsp;million and increasing costs of
equipment by $0.3&nbsp;million, which otherwise would have been
deferred and amortized.

$309.4&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $327.4&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002, a decrease of $18.0&nbsp;million. For
AirGate, service revenue was $251.5&nbsp;million for the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2003 compared to $226.5&nbsp;million
for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, an increase of
$25.0&nbsp;million. The increase in service revenue attributable
to AirGate reflects the higher average number of subscribers
using the Company&#146;s network, partially offset by lower
minute-over-plan overage charges. The decrease in Company
service revenue is primarily attributable to the shorter period
of iPCS results of operation included in the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003 compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<FONT size="2">While the roaming minutes of use increased for
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003 over the prior year, the
increase was more than offset by decreases in the price per
minute, which is primarily attributable to the declines in the
reciprocal roaming rate among Sprint and its PCS network
partners, including the Company. Sprint has unilaterally
decreased this rate over time, from $0.20&nbsp;per minute of use
prior to June&nbsp;1, 2001, to $0.10&nbsp;per minute of use
through calendar year 2002 to $0.058&nbsp;per minute of use in

of $14.0&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2003, compared to $18.0&nbsp;million for the year ended

ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to $13.0&nbsp;million
for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002. The reduction in
AirGate equipment revenue is primarily attributable to the
reduced AirGate subscriber gross additions during the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003 compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. For the Company, equipment revenue also
decreased as a result of the shorter period of iPCS results of

compared to the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<FONT size="2">Cost of service and roaming was
$243.2&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $311.3&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002, a decrease of $68.1&nbsp;million. For
AirGate, the cost of service and roaming was $187.4&nbsp;million
for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to
$204.2&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.
The decrease in the cost of service and roaming for AirGate is
attributable to reduced roaming and bad debt expenses. For the
Company, the decrease in cost of service and roaming is also
attributable to the shorter period of iPCS results of operations
included for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003 compared to
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<FONT size="2">Roaming expense was $66.9&nbsp;million for the
year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to
$85.5&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, a
decrease of $18.6&nbsp;million. For AirGate, roaming expense was
$53.7&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $57.7&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decline in roaming expense is
attributable to the decrease in the reciprocal roaming rate paid
to Sprint and its network partners, partially offset by
increased roaming minutes of use by our subscribers. The
increase in roaming minutes of use is due both to the growth in
the subscriber base as well as the general increase in usage per
subscriber year over year. For the Company, the decrease in
roaming expense is also attributable to the shorter period of
iPCS results of operation included for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<FONT size="2">For the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
network operating costs were $59.9&nbsp;million compared to
$86.0&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2002, a decrease of
$26.1&nbsp;million. For AirGate, network operating costs were
$43.8&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $48.3&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decrease resulted from more
favorable network connectivity-related costs despite the growing
AirGate subscriber base and increased subscriber usage. The
decrease for the Company was also attributable to the shorter
period of iPCS results of operations included for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. At September&nbsp;30, 2003,
AirGate&#146;s 359,460 subscribers were supported by a network
of approximately 800 active cell sites, 4 switches and
64&nbsp;network operations employees, compared to
September&nbsp;30, 2002, when the Company&#146;s network,
including the iPCS territory, consisted of approximately 1,433
active cell sites (800 for AirGate and 633 for iPCS) and 7
switches (4 for AirGate and 3 for iPCS) and 144 employees (89
for AirGate and 55 for iPCS).

<FONT size="2">Bad debt expense included in the cost of service
and roaming was $6.9&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to $26.9&nbsp;million for the
year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, a decrease of
$20.0&nbsp;million. For AirGate, bad debt expense was
$5.2&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $21.3&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. The AirGate decrease in bad debt
expense is attributable to the decrease in payment defaults
resulting from the re-imposition and increase of deposit
requirements for sub-prime credit customers and the improved
credit quality of our customer base during the 2003 fiscal year.
The decrease for the Company was also attributable to the
shorter period of iPCS results of operations included for the
year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<FONT size="2">Sprint has a program in which subscribers with
lower quality credit or limited credit history may nonetheless
sign up for services subject to certain account spending limits,
if the subscriber makes a deposit ranging from $125 to $250. In
May 2001, Sprint introduced the NDASL Program, in which the
deposit requirement was waived except in very limited
circumstances. The NDASL program was replaced in late 2001 with
the Clear Pay program. The Clear Pay program re-instituted the
deposit for only the lowest credit quality subscribers. The
NDASL and Clear Pay programs and their associated lack of
general deposit requirements increased the number of the
Company&#146;s sub-prime credit subscribers. In February 2002,
Sprint allowed its network partners to re-institute deposits in
a program called the Clear Pay&nbsp;II program. The Clear
Pay&nbsp;II programs and its deposit requirements are currently
in effect for all of AirGate&#146;s markets. In early February
2003, AirGate increased the deposit threshold to $250 for most
sub-prime customers.

<FONT size="2">The Company incurred approximately
$7.8&nbsp;million for wireless handset upgrade costs through
national third party retailers, business and Sprint sales
channels for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003 compared to
$4.8&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.
For AirGate, these costs were $6.0&nbsp;million for the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to $3.1&nbsp;million for
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002. The AirGate increase is
attributable to the larger number of subscribers upgrading
handsets in these channels. For the Company, the increase is
partially offset by the shorter period of iPCS results of
operations included for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.

$101.6&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003
for other cost of service expenses including long distance
expenses, Sprint affiliation fees and Sprint service fees to
support its customer base, compared to $108.0&nbsp;million for
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, a decrease of
$6.4&nbsp;million. For AirGate, these costs increased to
$78.6&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $73.7&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. The increase primarily reflects growth
in the subscriber base from 339,139 as of September&nbsp;30,
2002 to 359,460 as of September&nbsp;30, 2003. For the Company,
the decrease was primarily attributable to the shorter period of
iPCS results of operations included for the year ended

September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<I><FONT size="2">Cost of Equipment.</FONT></I><FONT size="2">
We purchase handsets and accessories to resell to our
subscribers for use in connection with our services. Because we
subsidize the sale of handsets to remain competitive in the
marketplace, the cost of handsets is higher than the resale
price to the subscriber. Cost of equipment was
$28.4&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
and $43.6&nbsp;million for year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, a
decrease of $15.2&nbsp;million. For AirGate, cost of equipment
was $21.5&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2003, compared to $27.8&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. This decrease is attributable to the
reduction in the number of subscribers added during the period.
The decrease for the Company was also attributable to the
shorter period of iPCS results of operations included for the
year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<I><FONT size="2">Selling and Marketing.
</FONT></I><FONT size="2">Selling and marketing expense includes
retail store costs such as salaries and rent, promotion,
advertising and commission costs, and handset subsidies on units
sold by national third-party retailers, the Company&#146;s
business sales channel and Sprint sales channels for which the
Company does not record revenue. Under our agreements with
Sprint, when a national retailer or other Sprint distribution
channel sells a handset purchased from Sprint to a subscriber
from the Company&#146;s territory, the Company is obligated to
reimburse Sprint for the handset subsidy and related costs that
Sprint originally incurred. The Company incurred selling and
marketing expense of $68.2&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to $116.6&nbsp;million for the
year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, a decrease of
$48.4&nbsp;million. For AirGate, selling and marketing expense
was $51.8&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2003, compared to $79.1&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decrease reflects reduced gross
subscriber additions, 55&nbsp;staff reductions, 9&nbsp;store
closings, and reduced advertising and promotion expenses,
partially offset by severance and similar costs. The decrease
for the Company was also attributable to the shorter period of
iPCS results of operations included for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

approximately 343 AirGate employees performing sales and
marketing functions, compared to 710 sales and marketing
employees as of September&nbsp;30, 2002 (480 for AirGate and 230
for iPCS). The decrease in employees reflects the
deconsolidation of iPCS and AirGate staff reductions.

asset. For the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, depreciation
decreased to $60.7&nbsp;million, compared to $70.2&nbsp;million
for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, a reduction of
$9.5&nbsp;million. For AirGate, depreciation expense was
$46.5&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $40.7&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. This increase for AirGate is primarily
attributable to capital additions at the end of fiscal year 2002
that were depreciated for a full year in fiscal year 2003. For
the Company, the decrease is also attributable to the
deconsolidation of iPCS at February&nbsp;23, 2003, and the
resulting shorter period of iPCS results of operations included
for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.

iPCS subscriber base. The right to provide service under
iPCS&#146;s Sprint agreements and the acquired iPCS subscriber
base recorded by the Company resulted from the purchase price
allocation related to the acquisition of iPCS. This impairment
arose from significant adverse changes to the business plan for
iPCS. Accordingly, the Company reduced the carrying value of the

the Company&#146;s lower average cash and cash equivalent

$42.7&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $35.5&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. For AirGate, the increase is
attributable to increased borrowings under the AirGate credit
facility, which was partially offset by lower interest rates,
and an increase in the accreted value of the AirGate notes. For
the Company, the decrease in interest expense is attributable to
the shorter period of iPCS results of operations included for

September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decrease in net loss was
attributable primarily to asset impairments during 2002 and
year-over-year improvements in operations of AirGate for fiscal
year 2003. During the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, the
Company recorded goodwill impairments of $460.9&nbsp;million,
property and equipment impairments of $44.5&nbsp;million, and
intangible assets impairment of $312.0&nbsp;million, each of

During the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, the net loss for

service revenues, a $27.3&nbsp;million reduction in sales and
marketing expenses, primarily in advertising, a
$16.1&nbsp;million improvement in bad debt expense and
$8.6&nbsp;million in special settlements from Sprint, offset by
an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of
$5.8&nbsp;million and an increase in interest expense of

<FONT size="2">We use certain operating and financial measures
that are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. A
non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of
a company&#146;s financial performance that (i)&nbsp;excludes
amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of
excluding amounts, that are included in the comparable measure
calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the
statement of income or statement of cash flows; or

have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the

<FONT size="2">Terms such as subscriber net additions, average
revenue per user (&#147;ARPU&#148;), churn, cost per gross
addition (&#147;CPGA&#148;) and cash cost per user
(&#147;CCPU&#148;) are important operating metrics used in the
wireless telecommunications industry. These metrics are
important to compare us to other wireless service providers.
ARPU, CCPU and CPGA also assist management in budgeting and CPGA
also assists management in quantifying the incremental costs to
acquire a new subscriber. Except for churn and net subscriber
additions, we have included a reconciliation of these metrics to
the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Churn and
subscriber net additions are operating statistics with no
comparable GAAP financial measure. ARPU, CPGA and CCPU are
supplements to GAAP financial information and should not be
considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, revenues,
expenses or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP. In
calculating CCPU, we exclude depreciation and amortization and
selling and marketing expenses. CCPU is intended to provide an
estimate of the ongoing cash costs of maintaining our existing

<FONT size="2">Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, or &#147;EBITDA,&#148; is a performance metric we
use and which is used by other companies. Management believes
that EBITDA is a useful adjunct to net loss and other
measurements under GAAP because it is a meaningful measure of a
company&#146;s performance, as interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization can vary significantly between companies due in
part to differences in accounting policies, tax strategies,
levels of indebtedness, capital purchasing practices and
interest rates. EBITDA also assists management in evaluating
operating performance and is sometimes used to evaluate
performance for executive compensation. We have included below a
presentation of the GAAP financial measure most directly
comparable to EBITDA, which is net loss, as well as a
reconciliation of EBITDA to net loss. We have also provided a
reconciliation to net cash provided by (used in) operating
activities as supplemental information. EBITDA is a supplement
to GAAP financial information and should not be considered an
alternative to, or more meaningful than, net loss, cash flow or
operating loss as determined in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA has
distinct limitations as compared to GAAP information such as net
loss, cash flow or operating loss. By excluding interest and tax
payments for example, it may not be apparent that both represent
a reduction in cash available to the Company. Likewise,
depreciation and amortization, while non-cash items, represent
generally the devaluation of assets that produce revenue for the
Company.

</FONT></I><FONT size="2">Subscriber gross additions for the
years ended September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002 were 231,410 and
374,249, respectively. For AirGate, subscriber gross additions
were 172,007 for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to 247,221 for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.
For AirGate, the decrease in subscriber gross additions is
attributable to an increase in the deposit amounts required for
sub-prime credit customers, the loss of distribution from
closing retail stores, Sprint&#146;s loss of certain national
third-party distribution channels, and staff reductions and
sales compensation plan changes. For the Company, the decrease
is also attributable to the shorter period of iPCS results of
operations included in the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.

was 3.2% for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to
3.5% for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decrease in
churn for AirGate is primarily a result of a decrease in the
number of sub-prime credit quality subscribers whose service was
involuntarily discontinued during the period.

2003, the Company added 34,520&nbsp;net new subscribers,
compared to 170,188 for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002.
For AirGate, net new subscribers were 20,321 for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to 104,116 for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decline in net additions for
AirGate is primarily due to a decrease in gross subscriber
additions and an increase in the total number of subscribers who
terminated service during the period. For the Company, the
decrease is also attributable to the shorter period of iPCS
results of operations included in the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

ARPU was $60 for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $61 for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002. The
decrease in ARPU reflects lower minute-over-plan overage charges
per user and lower cancellation fees per user, which was
partially offset by increased monthly recurring charges per
user, and an increase in E911 and WLNP payments from Sprint.

ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to $387 for the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decrease in CPGA was the
result of reduced customer acquisition costs, partially offset
by fewer subscriber gross additions.

ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, compared to $59 for the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002. The decrease in CCPU is primarily
attributable to lower network operations costs spread over a
greater number of average subscribers, lower roaming rates for
outbound minutes of use (primarily by Sprint and its network
partners), and significantly lower bad debt expense. These
improvements were partially offset by increased general and
administrative expenses, and expenses related to the proposed
recapitalization plan.

increase of $897.3&nbsp;million, compared to EBITDA of
($859.3)&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2002. The increase in EBITDA was attributable primarily to asset
impairments during 2002 and year-over-year improvements in
operations of AirGate for fiscal year 2003. During the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, the Company recorded goodwill
impairments of $460.9&nbsp;million, property and equipment
impairments of $44.5&nbsp;million, and intangible assets
impairment of $312.0&nbsp;million, each of which was related to
the Company&#146;s investment in iPCS. For AirGate, EBITDA was
$46.8&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to EBITDA of ($16.7)&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002. During the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, EBITDA for AirGate was positively
affected by $25.0&nbsp;million in higher service revenues, a
$27.3&nbsp;million reduction in sales and marketing expenses,
primarily in advertising, a $16.1&nbsp;million improvement in
bad debt expense and $8.6&nbsp;million in special settlements
from Sprint.

<I><FONT size="2">Service Revenue.</FONT></I><FONT size="2">
Service revenue was $327.4&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002, compared to $106.0&nbsp;million for the
year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001, an increase of
$221.4&nbsp;million. The increased revenue reflects the
substantially higher average number of subscribers using the
Company&#146;s network, including subscribers acquired in the
iPCS acquisition.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Roaming Revenue.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> The
Company recorded roaming revenue of $111.2&nbsp;million during
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, compared to
$55.3&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001,
an increase of $55.9&nbsp;million. The increase is attributable
to a larger wireless subscriber base for Sprint and other Sprint
PCS network partners, the additional covered territory acquired
with iPCS, increased roaming revenue to iPCS from Verizon
Wireless and increased roaming revenue from other third-party
carriers, partially offset by a lower average roaming rate from
Sprint and its PCS network partners. For the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002, roaming revenue from Sprint and its PCS
network partners was $103.1&nbsp;million, or 93% of the roaming
revenue recorded. For the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002,
roaming revenue from Sprint and its PCS network partners
attributable to AirGate and iPCS was $70.0&nbsp;million and
$33.1&nbsp;million, respectively, compared to $53.9&nbsp;million
or 97% for AirGate only for the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2001.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Sprint unilaterally reduced the reciprocal
roaming rate among Sprint and its PCS network partners,
including the Company, from $0.20 per minute of use prior to
June&nbsp;1, 2001, to $0.10 per minute of use in calendar 2002.

<I><FONT size="2">Equipment Revenue.
</FONT></I><FONT size="2">The Company recorded equipment revenue
of $18.0&nbsp;million during the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2002, compared to $10.8&nbsp;million for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2001, an increase of $7.2&nbsp;million. For
AirGate, equipment revenue was $13.0&nbsp;million for the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, compared to $10.8&nbsp;million
for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001. The increase in
AirGate equipment revenue is primarily attributable to the
increased AirGate subscriber gross additions during the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002 compared to the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2001. For the Company, the increase in
equipment revenue is also attributable to the inclusion of iPCS
results of operations subsequent to November&nbsp;30, 2001.

<FONT size="2">The cost of service and roaming was $311.3
million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, compared to
$116.9&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001,
an increase of $194.4&nbsp;million. The increase in the cost of
service and roaming is attributable to the increase in the
number of subscribers, including those resulting from the
acquisition of iPCS.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Roaming expense was $85.5 million for the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, compared to $40.5&nbsp;million
for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001, an increase of
$45.0&nbsp;million. The increase in roaming expense was a result
of the substantial increase in the Company&#146;s subscriber
base, the acquired iPCS subscriber base and an increase in the
roaming minutes of use, partially offset by a lower average rate
per minute. For the Company, 92% and 88% of roaming expense was
attributable to Sprint and its network partners for the years
ended September&nbsp;30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. As
discussed above, the per-minute rate the Company pays Sprint or
its PCS network partners when subscribers from the
Company&#146;s territory roam onto the network of Sprint or its
network partners decreased beginning June&nbsp;1, 2001 for
AirGate and January&nbsp;1, 2002 for iPCS.

year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, compared to
$8.1&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001, an
increase of $18.8&nbsp;million. This increase in bad debt
expense is attributable to the increase in AirGate&#146;s
subscriber base, the increase in payment defaults resulting from
the increase in sub-prime credit quality customers with no or
little deposit required and inclusion of the results of
operations of iPCS after November&nbsp;30, 2001. The increase in
sub-prime credit quality customers was largely attributable to
the waiver of the deposit in the NDASL and Clear Pay programs.

<FONT size="2">For the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002,
network operating costs were $86.0&nbsp;million, compared to
$36.5&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001,
an increase of $49.5&nbsp;million. This increase resulted from
the acquisition of iPCS and its subscriber base and supporting
its network assets and an increased AirGate subscriber base. The
Company was supporting 554,833&nbsp;subscribers at
September&nbsp;30, 2002 (AirGate and iPCS were 339,139 and
215,694, respectively), compared to 235,025&nbsp;subscribers at
September&nbsp;30, 2001. At September&nbsp;30, 2002, the
Company&#146;s network, including the iPCS territory, consisted
of approximately 1,433 active cell sites (800 for AirGate and
633 for iPCS), 7&nbsp;switches (4 for AirGate and 3 for iPCS)
and 144 employees (89 for AirGate and 55 for iPCS).

<I><FONT size="2">Goodwill Impairment.</FONT></I><FONT size="2">
The wireless telecommunications industry experienced significant
declines in market capitalization throughout most of 2002. The
significant declines in market capitalization resulted from
concerns regarding anticipated weakness in future subscriber
growth, increased subscriber churn, anticipated future lower
ARPU and potential liquidity concerns. As a result of these
industry trends, the Company experienced significant declines in
its market capitalization subsequent to the acquisition of iPCS.
Additionally, there were adverse changes to the strategic
business plan for iPCS. These changes included lower new
subscribers, lower ARPU, higher churn, increased expense for
service and pass through costs from Sprint and lower roaming
margins from Sprint. Wireless industry acquisitions subsequent
to the Company&#146;s acquisition of iPCS have been valued
substantially lower on a price per population and a price per
subscriber basis. As a result of these transactions and industry
trends, the Company believed that the fair value of iPCS and its
assets were reduced. Accordingly, the Company on two occasions
during 2002 performed fair value assessments of iPCS. The
Company recorded a goodwill impairment of approximately
$261.2&nbsp;million and $199.7&nbsp;million during the quarters
ended March&nbsp;31, 2002 and September&nbsp;30, 2002,
respectively, as a result of the fair value assessments. The
Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge for the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2002 of $460.9&nbsp;million.

SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;144 &#147;Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.&#148; As discussed above, the
impairment arose from significant adverse changes to the

the acquired iPCS subscriber base was recorded by the Company
reflecting the purchase price allocation resulting from the
acquisition of iPCS. The original value and life assigned to
this intangible was $323.3&nbsp;million and 205&nbsp;months,
respectively. As discussed above, the impairment arose from
significant adverse changes that occurred to the business plan
for iPCS. Accordingly, the Company adjusted the carrying value

149,622 subscribers acquired from iPCS on November&nbsp;30,

added 104,116 net new AirGate subscribers compared to 178,336 in
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001. The decrease in net
subscriber additions is primarily due to the increase in the
number of subscriber deactivations more than offsetting the
increased gross subscriber additions.

for AirGate was $61, compared to $54 for iPCS. The decrease in
ARPU for the Company primarily reflects lower ARPU for iPCS, no
longer recognizing terminating long-distance access revenues and
declines in the average monthly recurring revenue per user.
Until March 2002, the Company recorded terminating long-distance
access revenues billed by Sprint PCS to long distance carriers.
Sprint PCS has made a claim against the Company for these
historical revenues based upon Sprint&#146;s current litigation
with AT&#38;T and other long distance carriers. While we
continue to examine the rights we may have against Sprint PCS,
the Company recorded a reserve for the terminating access
charges previously paid by Sprint PCS on behalf of long distance
carriers and for which Sprint PCS has made a claim.

impairment associated with AirGate&#146;s investment in iPCS of
$44.5&nbsp;million and the intangibles impairment associated

($53.9)&nbsp;million for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2001.
During the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, EBITDA for
AirGate was favorably impacted by a more than 50% increase in
our subscriber base and related service revenues, which improved
our operating leverage. This improvement was partially offset by
a $13.2&nbsp;million increase in bad debt expense and a
$5&nbsp;million charge related to the receivable from Sprint.

statements, the Company has generated significant net losses
since inception and has an accumulated deficit of
$1.3&nbsp;billion and stockholders&#146; deficit of
$377.0&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2003. For the year

amounted to $84.8&nbsp;million, $42.2&nbsp;million of which was
attributable to AirGate. In addition to its capital needs to
fund operating losses, AirGate has invested large amounts to
build-out its network and for other capital assets. Since
inception, AirGate has invested $302.0&nbsp;million to purchase
property and equipment. While much of AirGate&#146;s network is
now complete, and capital expenditures are expected to be lower
than in prior years, such expenditures will continue to be
necessary. As of September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate has working
capital of $12.5&nbsp;million and cash and cash equivalents of
$54.1&nbsp;million, and no remaining availability under its
credit facility. As a result, AirGate is completely dependent on
available cash and operating cash flow to pay debt service and
meet its other capital needs. If such sources are not
sufficient, alternative funding sources may not be available.

our old notes is expected to decrease by $140.0&nbsp;million and
annual interest payments are expected to decrease by
$25.5&nbsp;million per year after 2004. As a result, after 2004
the restructuring would provide cumulative annual cash savings

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">AirGate PCS, Inc. and its subsidiaries and
predecessors were formed for the purpose of becoming a leading
regional provider of wireless Personal Communication Services,
or &#147;PCS.&#148; We are a network partner of Sprint PCS,
which is a group of wholly-owned subsidiaries of Sprint
Corporation (a diversified telecommunications service provider),
that operate and manage Sprint&#146;s PCS products and services.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Sprint operates a 100% digital PCS wireless
network in the United States and holds the licenses to provide
PCS nationwide using a single frequency band and a single
technology. Sprint, directly and indirectly through network
partners such as us, provides wireless services in more than
4,000 cities and communities across the country. Sprint directly
operates its PCS network in major metropolitan markets
throughout the United States. Sprint has also entered into
independent agreements with various network partners, such as
us, under which the network partners have agreed to construct
and manage PCS networks in smaller metropolitan areas and along
major highways.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">As of September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate had
359,460&nbsp;subscribers and total network coverage of
approximately 6.1&nbsp;million residents, representing
approximately 83% of the residents in its territory. For the
fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, we generated revenue
of approximately $331.3&nbsp;million.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On November&nbsp;30, 2001, we acquired iPCS in a
merger. In light of consolidation in the wireless communications
industry in general and among Sprint PCS network partners in
particular, our board of directors believed that the merger
represented a strategic opportunity to significantly expand the
size and scope of our operations, attain access to attractive
markets, and provide greater operational efficiencies and growth
potential than we would have had on our own. In connection with
the iPCS acquisition, we issued 12.4&nbsp;million shares of our
common stock valued at $57.16 per share on November&nbsp;30,
2001, which totaled $706.6&nbsp;million. We reserved an
additional 1.1&nbsp;million shares for issuance upon exercise of
outstanding iPCS options and warrants valued at
$47.7&nbsp;million using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. Subsequently, certain former stockholders of iPCS
sold 4.0&nbsp;million shares of our common stock in an
underwritten offering on December&nbsp;18, 2001.

<FONT size="2">iPCS&#146;s business plan projected that historic
high rates of growth in the wireless industry would continue
through 2009 as penetration rates in the United States grew to
above 70%, which would in turn support pricing levels for
wireless products and services. As a result, we believed that
iPCS would have sufficient cash flow to service its high level
of debt. iPCS&#146;s growth rates through March 2002 met or
exceeded expectations, despite slower subscriber growth in the
industry in 2001 than in prior years. The re-imposition and
increase of the deposit for sub-prime credit customers, the
continued slowdown in growth in the wireless industry and
increased competition slowed iPCS&#146;s rate of growth
significantly in&nbsp;2002.

<FONT size="2">AirGate&#146;s results of operations similarly
declined in this period due to many of the same factors, but not
to the same degree. We were significantly further along in our
business lifecycle and thus had built out more of our area and
had a larger subscriber base. As a result, we had significantly
less build-out expenses and a higher level of consistent revenue
than iPCS during the same period.

appointed CRO of iPCS, responsible for overseeing the
restructuring of iPCS and for the day-to-day management of iPCS.
To facilitate the orderly transition of management services to

this could have subjected our restructuring to the automatic

</FONT></I><FONT size="2">For the fiscal year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate has produced $46.8&nbsp;million
of EBITDA. As of September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate had working
capital of $12.5&nbsp;million and cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $54.1&nbsp;million. After drawing the remaining
$9.0&nbsp;million available under our $153.5&nbsp;million senior
secured credit facility in August, 2003, AirGate is completely
dependent on available cash and operating cash flow to operate
our business and fund our capital needs. In November 2003,
AirGate entered into an amendment to its credit facility. Some
of the changes will assist us in complying with key financial
covenants for the next twelve months. Based on our current
business plan, our compliance with the financial covenants under
our credit facility is not assured and, after March 2005, our
ability to generate operating cash flow to pay debt service,
meet our other capital needs and meet the financial covenants in
our credit facility is significantly uncertain. In addition,
there is substantial risk under our current business plan that
we would not have sufficient liquidity to meet our cash interest
obligations on our old notes beginning in 2006.

<FONT size="2">We also have significant cash principal and
interest payments under our indebtedness coming due during the
period from 2005 through 2009. Unless the financial
restructuring occurs, we will be required to make the following
approximate principal and interest payments on our credit
facility and old notes:

development of compelling data applications will be critical to
the growth in usage of wireless data network services. In the
third quarter of 2002, Sprint launched PCS Vision, a third
generation technology. Vision-enabled PCS devices take and
receive pictures, check personal and corporate e-mail, play
games with full-color graphics and polyphonic sounds and browse
the Internet wirelessly with speeds that equal or exceed a home
computer&#146;s dial-up connection. At the same time, Sprint
began to roll out a broad portfolio of Vision-enabled devices
that incorporate voice and data functionality, expanded memory,
high-resolution and larger color screens that allow greater
mobility, convenience and productivity. While the uptake of
these services has been slow, we believe PCS Vision will provide
a vehicle for growth for data and wireless internet services.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We believe wireless will continue to grow as a
substitution for wireline services. Wireless internet access,
wireless local loop and other wireless applications can spur
this migration and increase sales of wireless services.
Currently available data speeds on our network can exceed dial
up speeds through wireline carriers. Future speed upgrades may
offer alternatives to wireline services in rural areas in our
territory.

pricing plans designated for regional or national offerings. We
are to be paid 92% of collected revenues received by Sprint for
Sprint PCS products and services from subscribers in our
territory. Collected revenues exclude, among other things,
outbound roaming revenues and related charges, roaming revenues
from Sprint PCS and its PCS network partner subscribers, sales
of handsets and accessories, proceeds from sales not in the
ordinary course of business and amounts collected with respect
to taxes. Except in the case of taxes, we retain 100% of these
revenues. Although many Sprint subscribers purchase a bundled
pricing plan that allows roaming anywhere on Sprint&#146;s and
its network partners&#146; networks without incremental roaming
charges, we earn roaming revenues from every minute that a
Sprint subscriber from outside our territory is carried on our
PCS networks. We earn revenues from Sprint based on an
established per minute rate for Sprint&#146;s subscribers
roaming in our territory. Similarly, we pay for every minute
subscribers from our territory use the Sprint PCS nationwide
network outside such territory. On April&nbsp;27, 2001, we and
Sprint announced an agreement in principle to reduce the
reciprocal roaming rate exchanged between Sprint and us for PCS
subscribers who roam into the other party&#146;s, or another
network partner&#146;s, territory. The rate was reduced from
$0.20 per minute of use to $0.15 per minute of use beginning
June&nbsp;1, 2001, and to $0.12 per minute of use beginning
October&nbsp;1, 2001. Under the agreement in principle, the
roaming rate for us with respect to calendar year 2002 was $0.10
per minute. Sprint unilaterally decreased the reciprocal roaming
rate to $0.058 per minute in 2003 and has notified us that it
intends to decrease the reciprocal roaming rate to $0.041 per
minute in 2004. We believe these decreases were in breach of our
agreements with Sprint, including the agreement in principle.
However, our remedies against Sprint with respect to these
breaches may be limited.

and tactics we have tailored to our specific markets.

<I><FONT size="2">Pricing. </FONT></I><FONT size="2">Our use of
the Sprint national pricing strategy offers subscribers simple,
easy-to-understand service plans. Sprint&#146;s pricing plans
are typically structured with monthly recurring charges, large
local calling areas, bundles of minutes and service features
such as voicemail, caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding and
three-way calling. We also feature Sprint Free and Clear plans,
which offer simple, affordable plans for consumer and business
subscribers, and include long distance calling from anywhere on
the Sprint PCS nationwide network.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Sprint has a program in which subscribers with
lower quality credit or limited credit history may nonetheless
sign up for service subject to certain account spending limits,
if the subscriber makes a deposit ranging from $125 to $250. In
May 2001, Sprint introduced the no-deposit account spending
limit program, in which the deposit requirement was waived
except in very limited circumstances (the &#147;NDASL
program&#148;). The NDASL program was replaced in late 2001 with
the Clear Pay program. The Clear Pay program re-instituted the
deposit for only the lowest credit quality subscribers. The
NDASL and Clear Pay programs and their associated lack of
general deposit requirements increased the number of the
Company&#146;s sub-prime credit subscribers. In February 2002,
Sprint allowed its network partners to re-institute deposits in
a program called the Clear Pay&nbsp;II program. The Clear
Pay&nbsp;II program and its deposit requirements are currently
in effect in all of AirGate&#146;s markets. In early February
2003, management increased the deposit threshold from $125 to
$250 for most sub-prime credit subscribers.

Sprint require us to pay Sprint $4.00 for each 3G handset that
we purchase either directly from Sprint or from a Sprint
authorized distributor. We agreed to pay this fee starting with
purchases on July&nbsp;1, 2002 and ending on the earlier of
December&nbsp;31, 2004 or the date on which the cumulative 3G
handset fees received by Sprint from all Sprint network partners

also provided certain customer retention efforts, which we
terminated in mid-2003.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Billing and customer care are important to our
ability to maintain and grow our subscriber base and to collect
monies owed to us by subscribers. We believe actual or perceived
poor customer care contributes to higher churn. Two recent
surveys ranked Sprint last among national wireless carriers in
terms of customer satisfaction with customer care. We also
believe that collection rates for late payment and termination
fees and older receivables are unacceptably low.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">AirGate is examining a change in its billing and
customer care provider from Sprint to another provider. In June,
2003 we issued a request for proposals and received responses
from four prospective outsourcing vendors. Whether we change
providers depends on a number of factors, including our
estimates of improvements to our business which may result from
a change in providers, the costs of alternative providers
compared to Sprint, the costs Sprint may charge to accommodate
the transition to a new provider, the costs Sprint may charge
for services that remain with Sprint, either through our choice
or because Sprint requires us to accept these services, and the
resolution of other issues with Sprint.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Any transition to another service provider will
necessarily involve the continued cooperation of Sprint. While
we dispute its right to do so, Sprint might contest our right
terminate the services and/or demand that we pay high start-up
costs for activities related to the transition of these services
and allow for an interface with its systems. Resolving these
issues could increase the costs of outsourcing and delay the
benefits that we might receive as a result of changing service
providers.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">A termination of these services, would not, in
and of itself, terminate other services provided by Sprint, nor
change the fundamental nature of our Sprint affiliate
relationship. We would continue as a Sprint network partner and
our Sprint subscribers would have access to the national Sprint
network and its products and services.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our business has been subject to seasonality
because of the importance of fourth calendar quarter results.
Among other things, we have relied on higher subscriber
additions and handset sales in the fourth calendar quarter when
compared to the other three calendar quarters. For calendar
years 2001 and 2002, the fourth calendar quarter accounted for
32.4% and 25.3% of annual gross subscriber additions. A number
of factors contribute to this trend, including:

competition is with Verizon Wireless, Nextel, Cingular Wireless,
T-Mobile, AT&#38;T Wireless and its affiliates, Alltel and US
Cellular. These wireless service providers offer services that
are generally comparable to our PCS service. Most of our
competitors have financial resources and subscriber bases
greater than ours.

<FONT size="2">Many of our competitors have access to more
licensed spectrum than the 10 MHz licensed to Sprint in our

to offer coverage in areas not served by our PCS network, or,
because of their calling volumes or their affiliations with, or
ownership of, wireless providers, may be able to offer roaming
rates that are lower than those we offer. Wireless providers
compete with us in providing some or all of the services
available through the Sprint PCS network and may provide
services that we do not.

build-out of our Sprint PCS network. We have further enhanced
this plan to provide enhanced coverage for our territory.
Pursuant to our network operations strategy, we have provided
PCS service to the largest communities in our markets and have

communities to each other and to the adjacent major markets
owned and operated by Sprint.

<FONT size="2">As of September&nbsp;30, 2003, our network
consisted of four switches located at two switch centers and
approximately 800 operating cell sites. A switching center
serves several purposes, including routing calls, managing call
handoff, managing access to the public telephone network and
providing access to voice mail. 99% of our operating cell sites
are co-located. Co-location describes the strategy of leasing
available space on a tower or cell site owned by another company
rather than building and owning the tower or cell site directly.

<FONT size="2">In 1993, the FCC allocated the 1900 MHz frequency
block of the radio spectrum for wireless PCS Systems. PCS
networks operate at a higher frequency and employ more advanced
digital technology than traditional analog cellular telephone
service. The enhanced capacity of digital systems, along with
enhancements in digital protocols, allows digital-based wireless
technologies, whether using PCS or cellular frequencies, to
offer new and enhanced services, including greater call privacy
and more robust data transmission, such as facsimile, electronic
mail and connecting notebook computers with computer/data
networks.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Presently, wireless PCS systems operate under one
of three principal air interface protocols: CDMA, time division
multiple access (&#147;TDMA&#148;)&nbsp;or global system for
mobile communications (&#147;GSM&#148;). Wireless PCS operators
in the United States now have dual-mode or tri-mode handsets
available so that their customers can operate on different
networks that employ different protocols.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Sprint&#146;s network and Sprint&#146;s network
partners&#146; networks all use CDMA technology. CDMA technology
is fundamental to accomplishing our business objective of
providing high volume, high quality airtime at a low cost. We
believe that CDMA provides important system performance
benefits. CDMA systems offer more powerful error correction,
less susceptibility to fading and reduced interference than
analog systems. Using enhanced voice coding techniques, CDMA
systems achieve voice quality that is comparable to that of the
typical wireline telephone. This CDMA vocoder technology also
employs adaptive equalization, which filters out background
noise more effectively than existing wireline, analog cellular
or other digital PCS phones. CDMA technology also allows a
greater number of calls within one allocated frequency and
reuses the entire frequency spectrum in each cell. In addition,
CDMA technology combines a coding scheme with a low power signal
to enhance security and privacy. As a subscriber travels from
one cell site to another cell site, the call must be
&#147;handed off&#148; to the second cell site. CDMA systems
transfer calls throughout the network using a technique referred
to as soft hand-off, which connects a mobile subscriber&#146;s
call with a new cell site while maintaining a connection with
the cell site currently in use.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">CDMA offers a cost effective migration to the
next generation of wireless services. CDMA standards and
products currently in place will allow existing CDMA networks to
be upgraded in a cost efficient manner to the next generation of
wireless technology. We have upgraded our entire network to the
next generation of technology known as &#147;one times radio
transmission technology&#148; or &#147;1XRTT.&#148; This
technology offers data speeds of up to 144 kilobits per second,
voice capacity improvements of over 50% and improved battery
life in the handset. Further standards are being developed for
CDMA that will offer data speeds in excess of 2,000 kilo bits
per second and additional improvements in voice capacity.

the United States of America. Sprint PCS is required to
contribute to the federal universal service program as well as
existing state programs. The FCC has determined that the
contribution to the federal universal service program is a
variable percentage of interstate end-user telecommunications
revenues, which was approximately 9.0% for the second quarter of
2003 and 9.5% for the third quarter of 2003. The proposed
contribution factor for the fourth quarter of 2003 is 9.2%.
Although many states are likely to adopt a similar assessment
methodology for intrastate revenues, the states are free to
calculate telecommunications service provider contributions in
any manner they choose as long as the process is not
inconsistent with the FCC&#146;s rules. At the present time it
is not possible to predict the extent of our total federal and
state universal service assessments or our ability to recover
costs associated with the universal service fund.

assignment of, or transfers involving, substantial changes in
ownership or control of a PCS license. Non-controlling interests
in an entity that holds a PCS license or operates PCS networks
generally may be bought or sold without prior FCC approval. In
addition, the FCC requires only post-consummation notification
of certain pro forma assignments or transfers of control.

<FONT size="2">An integral element of these rules is that the
FCC also requires licensees to maintain a certain degree of
control over their licenses. The Sprint PCS agreements reflect
an alliance that the parties believe meets the FCC requirements
for licensee control of licensed spectrum. If the FCC were to
determine that the Sprint PCS agreements need to be modified to
increase the level of licensee control, we have agreed with
Sprint PCS under the terms of our Sprint PCS agreements to use
our best efforts to modify the agreements as necessary to cause
the agreements to comply with applicable law and to preserve to
the extent possible the economic arrangements set forth in the
agreements. If the agreements cannot be modified, the agreements
may be terminated pursuant to their terms. In addition to
revoking the licenses, the FCC could also impose monetary
penalties on us.

referred to local number portability (&#147;LNP&#148;). Covered
CMRS providers must provide LNP in the 100&nbsp;largest
metropolitan statistical areas, in compliance with certain FCC
performance criteria, upon request from another carrier (CMRS
provider or local exchange carrier). For metropolitan
statistical areas outside the top 100&nbsp;markets, CMRS
providers that receive a request to allow an end user to port
their number must be capable of doing so within six months of
receiving the request or within six months after
November&nbsp;24, 2003, whichever is later. Porting is currently
mandated in approximately 35% of our markets. We currently plan
to implement WLNP in the remainder of our markets on
May&nbsp;24, 2004. The wireless LNP mandate may impose increased
operating costs on all CMRS providers, including us, and may
result in higher subscriber churn rates and subscriber
acquisition and retention costs.

<FONT size="2">We intend to vigorously contest these charges and
to closely examine all fees and charges imposed by Sprint. In
addition to these disputes, we have other outstanding issues
with Sprint which could result in set-offs to the items
described above or in payments due from Sprint. For example, we
believe Sprint has failed to calculate, pay and report on
collected revenues in accordance with our agreements with
Sprint, which, together with other cash remittance issues, has
resulted in a shortfall in cash payments to AirGate. Sprint has
unilaterally reduced the reciprocal roaming rate charged among
Sprint and its network partners, in a manner which we believe is
a breach of our agreements with Sprint.

<FONT size="2">During the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
AirGate recorded $3.6&nbsp;million (not including
$1.3&nbsp;million for monthly service charges as described
below) in credits from Sprint as a reduction of cost of services
and $3.7&nbsp;million as an increase in revenues. We are
reviewing whether additional amounts are due AirGate and we
continue to discuss with Sprint the proper method for
calculating, paying and reporting on collected revenues and
other matters.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Sprint determines monthly service charges at the
beginning of each calendar year. Sprint takes the position that
at the end of each year, it calculates the costs to provide
these services for its network partners and requires a final
settlement against the charges actually paid. If the costs to
provide these services are less than the amounts paid by
Sprint&#146;s network partners, Sprint issues a credit for these
amounts. If the costs to provide the services are more that the
amounts paid by Sprint&#146;s network partners, Sprint charges
the network partners for these amounts. During the fiscal year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, Sprint credited AirGate
$1.3&nbsp;million, which was recorded as a reduction to cost of
service.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Company formed AirGate Service Company, Inc.
(&#147;ServiceCo&#148;) to provide management services to both
AirGate and iPCS. ServiceCo is a wholly-owned restricted
subsidiary of AirGate. ServiceCo expenses were allocated between
AirGate and iPCS based on the percentage of subscribers (the
&#147;ServiceCo Allocation&#148;), which was approximately 60%
AirGate and 40% iPCS. Personnel who provided general management
services to AirGate and iPCS were leased to ServiceCo.
Generally, the management personnel included the corporate staff
at the Company&#146;s principal corporate offices in Atlanta and
the accounting staff in Geneseo, Illinois. Expenses that related
primarily to one company are allocated to that company. Expenses
that are related to ServiceCo or both companies, such as rents
associated with the Atlanta and Geneseo offices, consulting
costs incurred for ServiceCo and other expenses related to
ServiceCo management services, were allocated in accordance with
the ServiceCo Allocation.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On January&nbsp;27, 2003, iPCS retained a chief
restructuring officer to oversee the restructuring of iPCS and
manage the day-to-day operations of iPCS. To facilitate the
orderly transition of management services to the chief
restructuring officer, AirGate and iPCS executed an amendment to
the Services Agreement that generally would allow individual
services to be terminated by either party upon 30&nbsp;days
prior notice. iPCS began terminating services provided by
ServiceCo in March, 2003. All remaining services were terminated
by iPCS by September&nbsp;30, 2003. For the years ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002, iPCS paid a net total of
$2.9&nbsp;million and $1.7&nbsp;million, respectively for
ServiceCo expenses, which had the effect of reducing AirGate
expenses by that amount and AirGate may see its costs increase
in the future without the benefit of the ServiceCo allocation.

addition, iPCS&#146;s subscribers incur minutes of use in
AirGate&#146;s territory for which AirGate receives roaming
revenue from Sprint. AirGate received $0.2&nbsp;million of
roaming revenue with respect to use by iPCS subscribers of
AirGate&#146;s network and incurred $0.3 million of roaming
expense with respect to use by AirGate subscribers of
iPCS&#146;s network for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
compared to $0.4&nbsp;million of roaming revenue and
$0.4&nbsp;million of roaming expense for the year ended

<FONT size="2">Timothy M. Yager was a member of the AirGate
board of directors until December&nbsp;16, 2002. Prior to
joining the AirGate board, Mr.&nbsp;Yager was the chief
executive officer of iPCS. Pursuant to his employment agreement
with iPCS, iPCS purchased consulting services from
Mr.&nbsp;Yager during the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003. On
January&nbsp;27, 2003, Mr.&nbsp;Yager was appointed chief
restructuring officer to oversee the restructuring of iPCS and
his company, YMS Management, LLC, entered into a management
services agreement to manage the day-to-day operations of iPCS.
In connection with his appointment as chief restructuring
officer, Mr.&nbsp;Yager and iPCS agreed to terminate the
provisions of his employment agreement providing for consulting
services to iPCS and payments thereunder to Mr.&nbsp;Yager. The
management services agreement provides weekly payments of
$15,000, plus certain expenses. The agreement also provides that
upon confirmation of a plan of reorganization or a sale of iPCS,
Mr.&nbsp;Yager is entitled to a fixed fee equal to $500,000 less
50% of the aggregate weekly payments previously paid to
Mr.&nbsp;Yager under the management services agreement. If the
sale of iPCS results in proceeds in excess of $190&nbsp;million,
Mr.&nbsp;Yager is entitled to a fee equal to the lesser of 1.25%
of such proceeds or $3.5 million. In addition, upon the closing
of any equity investment in iPCS, Mr. Yager is entitled to a fee
equal to 2% of the amount invested. During the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, iPCS purchased $0.3&nbsp;million of
consulting services from Mr.&nbsp;Yager, which represents
payments under his employment agreement prior to
January&nbsp;27, 2003 and payments as chief restructuring
officer and to YMS after that time and prior to
February&nbsp;23, 2003.

<FONT size="2">In 2001, our board adopted the AirGate PCS, Inc.
2001 Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan (the &#147;Director
Plan&#148;). Under the Director Plan, non-employee directors
receive an annual retainer for each plan year, which may be
comprised of cash, restricted stock or options to purchase
shares of our common stock. A director may elect to receive 50%
or more of such amount in the form of restricted stock or
options to purchase shares of our common stock.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In addition, under the Director Plan, each
non-employee director that joins our board of directors receives
an initial grant of options to acquire shares of our common
stock. The options vest in three equal annual installments
beginning on the first day of the plan year following the year
of grant. Each participant also receives an annual grant of
options to acquire our common stock, which vest on the first day
of the plan year following the year of grant. In lieu of this
annual grant, the recipient may elect to receive three
year&#146;s worth of annual option grants in a single upfront

the first day of each of the three succeeding plan years. All
options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of
our common stock on the date of grant. We also reimburse each of

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">A combination of factors, including the loss of
three independent directors during 2002, led us to engage an
outside compensation consulting firm to review the adequacy of
the compensation to be paid under our Director Plan. Some of the
factors that led to this review are the same as those facing
every public company, including the increased demand on
directors&#146; time required to satisfy increasing requirements
for process and oversight of management of public companies, and
the greater demand for independent directors and directors with
financial and accounting expertise. In addition to these general
conditions are factors specific to our industry and company,
including the turmoil in the telecommunications industry in
general and the challenges facing partners or affiliates of
wireless carriers in particular.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The consulting firm reviewed, among other things,
director compensation practices of similarly sized companies
within and outside our industry and factors specific to us.
Based on this review and the recommendations of management and
the consulting firm, we amended the Director Plan on January 22,
2003 to increase compensation for non-employee directors. As
amended, for each plan year (beginning on the day of an annual
meeting of our shareowners and ending on the day before our next
annual meeting) each non-employee director that chairs one or
more committees of our board of directors will receive an annual
retainer of $15,000, up from $12,000, and all other non-employee
directors will receive $10,000. The amendment also added meeting
fees for board and committee meetings as follows:
(i)&nbsp;full-day (more than 4 hours) meetings, $3,000; half-day
meetings, $1,500; full-day telephonic meetings, $1,500 and
half-day telephonic meetings, $750. In addition, as an
inducement for and recognition of board service during this
difficult period in our development, current directors who
continue to serve will be paid an additional retainer every six
months of $12,500 until December&nbsp;1, 2004. Finally, the
initial option grant to non-employee directors has been
increased to 10,000 from 5,000 and the annual option grant to
7,500 from 5,000.

<FONT size="2">We have entered into an employment agreement with
Thomas M. Dougherty, our chief executive officer.
Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty&#146;s employment agreement is for a
five-year term ending April&nbsp;15, 2004. Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty is
eligible to receive an annual bonus of at least 50% of his base
salary. Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty&#146;s base salary was set at
$325,000 by the compensation committee of our board of
directors. Under his employment agreement, Mr. Dougherty has a
minimum guaranteed annual increase in his base salary of at
least $20,000. Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty may participate in any
executive benefit/perquisite we establish at a minimum aggregate
payment of $15,000 per year. Pursuant to his employment
agreement, Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty initially was awarded a stock
option exercisable for 300,000 shares of common stock. Under the
agreement, the initial stock option vested with respect to 25%
of the underlying shares of common stock on the date
Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty commenced his employment with us, April 15,
1999, and such vested options became exercisable on
April&nbsp;15, 2000. The remaining 75% of the shares of common
stock subject to the initial stock option vest in 15 equal
quarterly installments beginning June&nbsp;30, 2000. The
exercise price of the initial stock option granted to
Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty is $14.00 per share. As of September&nbsp;4,
2003, Mr. Dougherty surrendered (returned to AirGate)
outstanding and unexercised options for 185,714 shares that were
part of the initial April 15, 1999 stock option grant. In
addition, Mr.&nbsp;Dougherty is eligible to participate in all
employee benefit plans and policies.

Mr.&nbsp;Seippel&#146;s initial base salary pursuant to the

annual base salary will be increased to $275,000.
Mr.&nbsp;Seippel is eligible under his offer letter to receive
an annual bonus based on our incentive plans and policies, but
at a target of not less than 50% of his base salary. The offer
letter guaranteed Mr.&nbsp;Seippel an annual incentive award

Mr.&nbsp;Seippel initially received a grant of 70,000

of time-based restricted stock. Mr.&nbsp;Seippel&#146;s stock
option shares will vest in four equal annual installments with
the initial 25% annual installment vesting on October&nbsp;24,
2003 and each remaining 25% annual installment vesting on each
anniversary thereafter. The restrictions on

annual installments on each anniversary. The exercise price of
the initial stock option granted to Mr.&nbsp;Seippel is $0.64
per share. In addition, Mr.&nbsp;Seippel is eligible to

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Background</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We became a Sprint PCS network partner in 1998
and completed an initial public offering in September 1999. At
that time, our business plan projected that historic high rates
of growth in the wireless industry would continue through 2009
as wireless penetration rates in the United States grew to above
70%, which would in turn support pricing levels for wireless
products and services. As a result, we believed that we would
have sufficient cash flow to service our high level of debt. Our
growth rates through mid-2002 met or exceeded our expectations,
despite slower subscriber growth in the industry in 2001 than in
prior years.
</FONT>

<DIV align="left"><FONT size="1">

</FONT></DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On November&nbsp;30, 2001, we acquired iPCS in a
merger. In light of consolidation in the wireless communications
industry in general and among Sprint PCS network partners in
particular, we believed that the merger represented a strategic
opportunity to significantly expand the size and scope of our
operations. We believed that, following the merger, we would
have had greater financial flexibility, operational efficiencies
and growth potential than we would have had on our own. In
connection with the iPCS acquisition, we issued
12.4&nbsp;million shares of our common stock valued at $57.16
per share on November&nbsp;30, 2001, which totaled
$706.6&nbsp;million. We reserved an additional 1.1&nbsp;million
shares for issuance upon exercise of outstanding iPCS options
and warrants valued at $47.7&nbsp;million using a Black-Scholes
option pricing model. The transaction was accounted for under
the purchase method of accounting. Subsequently, certain former
stockholders of iPCS sold 4.0&nbsp;million shares of our common
stock in an underwritten offering on December&nbsp;18, 2001. For
specific benefits, factors and risks considered by our board of
directors in approving our acquisition of iPCS, see
&#147;AirGate&nbsp;&#151; iPCS, Inc.&#148;

<DIV align="left"><FONT size="1">

</FONT></DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Subsequent to our acquisition of iPCS, its
results of operations began to decline. On February&nbsp;23,
2003, iPCS filed a Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy case. For a
discussion of the reasons for this decline and the bankruptcy
filing, see &#147;AirGate&nbsp;&#151; iPCS, Inc.&#148;
</FONT>

<DIV align="left"><FONT size="1">

</FONT></DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our results of operations similarly declined in
this period due to many of the same factors, but not to the same
degree. In particular, since the beginning of 2002, our rate of
subscriber growth has slowed significantly, our industry has
become more competitive than we expected and our market share
has declined. Prior to calendar year 2002, our subscriber base
was growing in excess of 20% per quarter. In early 2002, the
quarterly subscribers growth rate declined to approximately 12%
and then fell below 5% and has remained below this level since
mid-2002.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Further, our dependence on Sprint has, over time,
created additional challenges that have compounded the problems
created by these market conditions. Among the most serious
problems was Sprint&#146;s introduction of the Clear Pay program
targeted at sub-prime credit quality subscribers in early 2001,
which resulted in unexpectedly high levels of customer turnover
or churn and higher levels of bad debt in 2002 and early 2003.
Prior to the introduction of the Clear Pay program in May 2002,
our average monthly customer churn rate was below 2.8%. This was
due in part to a smaller subscriber base. Our quarterly churn
increased to 3.2% in the last calendar quarter of 2001 and
peaked at 4.3% in the third calendar quarter of 2002. In
addition, Sprint has made unilateral decisions over time that
have had an adverse impact on our revenue, such as the reduction
in the reciprocal roaming rate paid by Sprint and its network
partners. Further, we have not realized the benefits of scale
that were expected when we agreed to designate Sprint as our
principal service provider for various services, including
billing, collections and customer care. Finally, we believe
Sprint&#146;s failure to provide customer care in a manner
consistent with that of our competitors has contributed to
higher rates of churn.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">These factors have severely limited our ability
to raise new capital and led us to revise our business plans to
reflect this less-favorable operating environment. In the
quarter ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, we began a series of cost
cutting measures designed to reduce operating expenses in order
to improve our financial position. We began implementing these
measures in December 2002 and continued to examine and implement
changes to reduce operating costs through April 2003. As of the
quarter ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, we had less than
$1.0&nbsp;million in cash and cash equivalents.

<FONT size="2">As a result of our current business strategy, for
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate has produced
$50.2&nbsp;million of operating cash flow. As of
September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate had working capital of
$12.5&nbsp;million and cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $54.1&nbsp;million, up from $(14.5)&nbsp;million
and $4.9&nbsp;million, respectively, at December&nbsp;31, 2002.
However, for the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate had
a net loss of $42.2&nbsp;million and a stockholders&#146;
deficit of $377.0&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;30, 2003.
After drawing the remaining available $9.0&nbsp;million credit
under our $153.5&nbsp;million credit facility in August, 2003,
we have no outside funding alternatives and are completely
dependent on available cash and operating cash flow to operate
our business and fund our capital needs. In November 2003,
AirGate entered into an amendment to its credit facility.
Management expects these changes to generally assist AirGate in
complying with key financial covenants for the next twelve
months. Based on our current business plan, our compliance with
the financial covenants under our credit facility is not assured
and, after March 2005, our ability to generate operating cash
flow to pay debt service, meet our other capital needs, and meet
the financial covenants in our credit facility is significantly
uncertain. In addition, there is substantial risk under our
current business plan that we would not have sufficient
liquidity to meet our cash interest obligations on our old notes
beginning in 2006.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We also have significant cash principal and
interest payments under our indebtedness coming due during the
period from 2005 through 2009. Unless the financial
restructuring occurs, we will be required to make the following
approximate principal and interest payments on our credit
facility and old notes:

International, LLC, and Mr.&nbsp;Duster, as the representative
of Masson&nbsp;&#38; Co. (collectively, the &#147;financial
advisors&#148;), investment banking firms, met with our board of
directors, which at that time consisted of
Messrs.&nbsp;Dougherty, Ferchat, Schiffman and Stetz, and
Mr.&nbsp;Seippel, our chief financial officer, and
Ms.&nbsp;Blackford, our general counsel, for the purpose of
discussing the engagement of financial advisors to assess our
business plan and, if needed, to assist us in exploring
restructuring alternatives. On March&nbsp;3, 2003, the board
formally retained the services of the financial advisors in
connection with the restructuring.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Beginning in March 2003, with the assistance of
the financial advisors, we assessed the operating position and
outlook of AirGate from a comparative financial and operational
perspective. We initiated an in-depth financial and business
analysis to identify the best restructuring alternatives for
AirGate based on a review of the wireless industry and our
particular competitive dynamics within the industry.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In the period between February and June 2003, our
business began to improve over recent prior quarters. For the
nine month period ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate had
aggregate EBITDA of $44.2&nbsp;million. AirGate&#146;s cash
position improved from $0.9&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31,
2002 to $54.1&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;30, 2003. We
concluded that our sources of capital should be sufficient to
cover our estimated funding needs through the end of 2004 and
that we would be in compliance with covenants under our credit
facility. Longer term, our board of directors and management
were concerned that continued deterioration in the wireless
industry and risks in our relationship with Sprint caused
greater uncertainty about our ability to meet all of our working
capital needs in 2005 and beyond due in part to the cash
interest payments required on the old notes beginning in
April&nbsp;2005.

<FONT size="2">Although a discussion of specific alternatives
was deferred until the financial advisors could gather and
analyze additional information, the financial advisors suggested
that we consider a restructuring that would result in a
conservative capital structure as compared to a range of
industry comparable companies.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On April&nbsp;29, 2003, our board of directors
met to discuss restructuring alternatives with management and
Messrs.&nbsp;McNamara, Jackman, Topchik and Duster, as
representatives of the financial advisors. Also in attendance
were Mr.&nbsp;Seippel, Ms. Blackford and Mr. Pfohl, our vice
president of finance. Messrs.&nbsp;Seippel and Pfohl presented
the board of directors with a detailed summary of the analysis
that management had conducted over the prior months with the
assistance of the financial advisors. Our board of directors
concluded, after consulting with the financial advisors, that a
restructuring of our debt obligations involving the conversion
of our old notes into a new debt instrument with a reduced
interest rate and lower face amount combined with newly issued
equity of AirGate was likely to provide the best alternative for
us to reduce debt and create a stable capital structure to
support our business plan. This alternative was selected because
of the benefit to us and probability of completion relative to
other alternatives.

<FONT size="2">On June&nbsp;10, 2003, our board of directors
(other than Mr.&nbsp;Schiffman, who had by that time resigned
from the board) held a telephonic meeting with Ms. Blackford and
Messrs.&nbsp;Dougherty and Seippel. During this meeting, Messrs.
Dougherty and Seippel reviewed the status of the potential
restructuring. They also discussed the possibility of borrowing
funds to buy old notes in the open market, but noted that the
rising market price of the old notes based on AirGate&#146;s
improving financial results would make such purchases more
expensive and potentially cost prohibitive. The board also
considered the need to seek alternative sources of funding for
the repurchase of old notes or other possible restructuring
transactions and our board of directors also considered raising
additional funds from a third party investor through the
issuance of additional equity or debt and authorized management,
with the assistance of the financial advisors, to simultaneously
explore a restructuring of our debt obligations and begin
contacting financial and strategic investors regarding their
interest in investing in us.

approximately 17&nbsp;potential new investors regarding an
investment in AirGate. These investors generally fell into three

<FONT size="2">Our board of directors next held a telephonic
meeting on July&nbsp;22, 2003, with Ms.&nbsp;Blackford and
Messrs.&nbsp;Seippel, Jackman and Duster to review the
discussions with investors that had expressed potential interest
in AirGate. We received an initial proposal from one interested
party, which would have provided us with up to $35&nbsp;million
to repurchase our old notes. This proposal featured a minimum
annual interest rate of 15.5%, plus additional fees for any
value captured by purchasing old notes at a discount. The
overall annual cost for this proposed funding was estimated to
be over 20%, depending on underlying assumptions. Consequently,
our board of directors concluded that this proposal was
inadequate to meet our objectives for restructuring.

<FONT size="2">During this period, we also explored the
feasibility of a restructuring by initiating a discussion with
the administrative agent for our credit facility. We also began
simultaneous discussions with representatives from AIG Global
Investment Corp. (&#147;AIGGIC&#148;) and Capital Research and
Management Company (&#147;Cap Re&#148;), the two largest holders
of our old notes. During the month of July 2003, we proposed a
term sheet to the administrative agent for our credit facility
with modifications to our credit facility that would enable a
restructuring of our old notes and provide us greater
flexibility to achieve our business plan. We negotiated a term
sheet proposal with the administrative agent and after general
agreement on the terms, presented the negotiated proposal to our
lenders. We reached a tentative agreement with over 51% of the

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">By mid-July 2003, our discussions with potential
new debt investors made it apparent that pursuing a repurchase
of the old notes with newly-borrowed funds would be too
expensive, both in terms of the cost of borrowed money and the
trading price of the old notes. In addition, our lenders
expressed concern that we would continue to be over leveraged.
Similarly, our discussions with potential new equity investors
and their concern with our Sprint-related risks also made it
apparent that pursuing a repurchase of old notes with the
proceeds from a private equity investment would be too costly,
in terms of the dilution to our existing stockholders.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">As a result of these discussions, representatives
of AIGGIC and Cap&nbsp;Re expressed an interest in pursuing a
transaction that would result in our stockholders retaining
approximately 50% of our outstanding common stock while reducing
our outstanding debt by approximately 50%. Consequently, we
began to explore the possibility of exchanging our old notes for
new notes and shares of our common stock. This general structure
also received a positive response from the administrative agent
under our credit facility.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On August&nbsp;14, 2003, our board of directors
met with Messrs.&nbsp;Jackman and Duster, as representatives of
the financial advisors. Also present at this meeting were
Ms.&nbsp;Blackford and Messrs.&nbsp;Seippel and Pfohl.
Messrs.&nbsp;Jackman and Duster reported their progress on
discussions with the holder of old notes.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In late August 2003, we presented a term sheet
proposal for restructuring the old notes to AIGGIC, Cap&nbsp;Re,
and other holders, who collectively held approximately 40% of
the old notes. The parties indicated willingness to proceed with
further discussions and we began an in-depth negotiation
process. The group participating in the negotiations expanded in
September 2003 to include holders of approximately 16% of
additional old notes. The major subject of the negotiations was
the face amount of new notes to be issued by us and its
associated interest rate and the amount of our common stock to
be issued to holders of the old notes in the exchange offer.
These negotiations ultimately concluded with a proposal to
exchange our outstanding old notes for 56% of our common stock
and $160&nbsp;million in aggregate principal amount of new notes.

<FONT size="2">On September&nbsp;3, 2003, our board conducted a
telephonic meeting, which included the participation of
Ms.&nbsp;Blackford and Mr.&nbsp;Seippel, as well as
Messrs.&nbsp;Jackman and Duster, as representatives of the
financial advisors. Also participating in the telephonic meeting
were Messrs.&nbsp;Wall and Layson, as representatives of
Winston&nbsp;&#38; Strawn LLP and McKenna Long&nbsp;&#38;
Aldridge LLP, respectively. Messrs.&nbsp;Jackman and Duster
reviewed their discussions with the noteholders and provided an
update on the status of amending our credit facility.
Mr.&nbsp;Layson then presented the board with a review of the
terms of the prepackaged plan, and Mr.&nbsp;Wall followed with a
discussion of certain securities law matters. The board
concluded this meeting with a discussion of potential equity
reserve for options and certain board composition matters.

<FONT size="2">During the month of September 2003, we contacted
additional noteholders to explore their willingness to discuss
participating in the exchange offer. On September&nbsp;16, 2003,
the board held a meeting to discuss the terms and status of the

Messrs.&nbsp;Dougherty and Seippel. Also in attendance were
Messrs.&nbsp;Jackman and Duster, as representatives of the
financial advisors, representatives of KPMG LLP, AirGate&#146;s
independent auditors and tax advisors, and Mr.&nbsp;Wall of
Winston&nbsp;&#38; Strawn LLP. During this meeting,
Messrs.&nbsp;Dougherty, Seippel, Jackman and Duster presented
the board with an overview of the restructuring, which was
followed by a discussion of certain accounting and tax matters
that included representatives of KPMG LLP. Ms.&nbsp;Blackford
and Mr.&nbsp;Wall then reviewed the terms of the restructuring
documents, and Mr.&nbsp;Jackman reviewed the financial
advisor&#146;s fairness opinion and supporting analyses. The
meeting concluded with a review of the transaction timeline,

and its subsidiaries since the date of the most recent financial
statements made available to Broadview.

<FONT size="2">In rendering its opinion, Broadview considered
that on February&nbsp;23, 2003 AirGate&#146;s wholly owned
subsidiary, iPCS, Inc., and its subsidiaries filed a
Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy petition. For the purpose of
rendering its opinion, Broadview, with the permission of
management, ascribed no value to the equity of iPCS, Inc. held
by AirGate.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Broadview relied on the advice of counsel to
AirGate and AirGate management as to all legal, tax and
financial reporting matters with respect to it and the
restructuring. In rendering its opinion, Broadview considered
the financial and liquidity issues facing AirGate if it does not
consummate the restructuring. In this regard, Broadview assumed,
based on financial estimates received from AirGate management,
that if the restructuring is not consummated, AirGate could
cease to be in compliance with its covenants under its existing
credit agreement during the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30,
2005 and could face significant liquidity issues at such time.

<FONT size="2">Broadview&#146;s opinion expresses no opinion as
to the price at which the common stock or debt securities of
AirGate will trade at any time or as to the effect of the
restructuring on the trading price of the common stock.
Broadview&#146;s opinion is necessarily based upon market,
economic, financial and other conditions as they exist and can
be evaluated as of the date of this opinion, and any change in
such conditions would require a reevaluation of this opinion.

<FONT size="2">Broadview&#146;s opinion speaks only as of the
date rendered. It is understood that the opinion is for the
information of the Board of Directors in connection with its
consideration of the exchange offer and does not constitute a
recommendation to AirGate as to whether it should pursue any
component of the restructuring, including the exchange offer,
nor does it constitute a recommendation to any holder of the
common stock as to how such holder should vote on any component
of the restructuring.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Broadview expressed no opinion as to the merits
of any alternative transaction to the restructuring, including
without limitation, any potential alternative third party
transaction or a liquidation of AirGate, or as to whether any
such alternative transaction might produce value to
AirGate&#146;s current stockholders in an amount in excess of
that contemplated by the restructuring. In addition,
Broadview&#146;s opinion addresses only the fairness, from a
financial point of view, to the current holders of common stock,
of the exchange offer, and Broadview did not express any opinion
as to any other component of the restructuring. Broadview&#146;s
opinion also does not address or take into account any
contemplated issuance of shares or grant of options to AirGate
management in connection with or following the restructuring.
Broadview&#146;s opinion does not address AirGate&#146;s capital
structure, ability to satisfy its obligations, ability to access
the capital markets for future financing requirements, or
solvency, in each case at any time, including currently and
following the consummation of the restructuring.
Broadview&#146;s opinion also does not address AirGate&#146;s
underlying business decision to enter into the restructuring.

<FONT size="2">The following is a summary explanation of the
various sources of information, valuation methodologies and
transaction analyses employed by Broadview in evaluating the
fairness of the exchange offer from a financial point of view to
existing holders of AirGate common stock. The analyses performed
to evaluate the fairness of the exchange offer are based on,
among other things, a Status Quo (&#147;Status Quo&#148;)
scenario, in which AirGate does not consummate the restructuring
and exchange offer and a Pro Forma (&#147;Pro Forma&#148;)
scenario, in which AirGate does consummate the restructuring and
exchange offer, assuming a 100% acceptance rate, per the terms
and conditions outlined in AirGate&#146;s draft registration
statement (of which this prospectus and solicitation statement
is a part) provided to Broadview on September&nbsp;23, 2003.

<FONT size="2">Broadview considered the recent public market
price of AirGate&#146;s common stock at various points in time
as one indicator to derive the current market value of AirGate.
Broadview calculated the aggregate market value of
AirGate&#146;s equity by multiplying AirGate&#146;s closing
stock price on September&nbsp;22, 2003 by its shares outstanding
on a fully diluted basis as of September&nbsp;20, 2003, which
was 25,939,836 (which Broadview understood not to be materially
different than AirGate&#146;s shares outstanding as of the date
of its opinion). Based upon a closing stock price of $2.85, the
resulting market value of equity, as calculated by Broadview,
totaled $73.9&nbsp;million as of September&nbsp;22, 2003.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">To determine the estimated equity value of
AirGate before taking the exchange offer into consideration,
Broadview also used the following methodologies: (1)&nbsp;a
public company comparables approach; and (2)&nbsp;a discounted
cash flow analysis. Broadview also considered the liquidation
analysis provided to Broadview by AirGate management that
assumes an orderly, yet expedited sale, such as an auction or
other similar-type sale, of the assets of AirGate. The analyses
required studies of the overall market, economic and industry
conditions in which AirGate operates and the historical
operating results of AirGate.

Analysis.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> Broadview examined the
Status Quo Equity Value of AirGate based on projected free cash
flow estimates for the company derived from projections provided
by management. The free cash flow estimates were generated from
financial projections from December&nbsp;31, 2003 through
September&nbsp;30, 2008, which were prepared by management.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Assuming a range of terminal value EBITDA
multiples from 6.0x to 10.0x, and a range of discount rates of
10.8% to 19.8%, Broadview calculated implied total Status Quo
Equity Values for the Company ranging from ($1.52) to $8.52
price per share with a $1.24 price per share assuming a terminal
EBITDA multiple of 7.0x and discount rate of 15.8%. Broadview
determined the discount rate based on an analysis of the
weighted average cost of capital of selected public companies in
the wireless service provider industry, making adjustments they
deemed appropriate in light of AirGate&#146;s capital structure,
and determined terminal EBITDA multiples based on trading
multiples of those companies.

<I><FONT size="2">Liquidation
Analysis.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> AirGate management provided
Broadview with a liquidation analysis that assumes an orderly,
yet expedited sale, such as an auction or other similar-type
sale of the assets of AirGate occurring over a period of six
months starting June&nbsp;30, 2003. The computations were based
on AirGate&#146;s estimated balance sheet information as of
June&nbsp;30, 2003. The analysis assumes that all operating
entities cease to operate as a going concern and the network is
shut down. It is assumed that all leased facilities are closed
and surrendered to the landlords and that the machinery and
equipment will be removed from these locations and sold by a
professional liquidator.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The liquidation analysis was based upon a number
of estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to
significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which would
be beyond the control of AirGate. Therefore, there can be no
assurance that the assumptions and estimates employed in
analyzing the liquidation values of the AirGate&#146;s assets
will result in an accurate estimate of the proceeds that would
be realized were the company to undergo an actual liquidation.
The liquidation analysis does not purport to be a valuation of
AirGate&#146;s assets and is not necessarily indicative of the
values that may be realized in an actual liquidation that could,
therefore, vary materially from the estimates provided above.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The liquidation analysis yielded estimated
liquidation proceeds available for distribution of
$64.1&nbsp;million to $135.3&nbsp;million. As of June&nbsp;30,
2003, the Company had liabilities in excess of
$641.4&nbsp;million.

of AirGate after taking the exchange offer into consideration,
Broadview primarily used the following methodologies: (1)&nbsp;a

AirGate operates and the historical operating results of AirGate.

<FONT size="2">In arriving at its conclusion that the
transaction is fair from a financial point of view to existing
AirGate shareholders, Broadview, among other things, compared
the results of the Status Quo Equity Value analysis and the Pro
Forma Equity Value analysis. The Pro Forma and Status Quo
analyses are calculated using median ratios to determine an
implied equity value per share and Broadview reviewed the
implied equity values per share in the context of the full range
of implied equity values per share in each specific analysis.
With respect to the Public Company Comparables and Discounted
Cash Flow analyses, Broadview noted that the AirGate implied
share value for the Pro Forma scenario (<I>i.e.</I>, taking the
exchange offer into account) was below the range of values
implied for the Status Quo scenario (<I>i.e.</I>, not taking the
exchange offer into account) for some metrics and above the
range of values implied for the Status Quo scenario for other
metrics. Metrics for which the AirGate implied share value for
the Pro Forma scenario was above the range of implied share
value for the Status Quo scenario generally supported
Broadview&#146;s fairness determination. Metrics for which the
AirGate implied share value for the Pro Forma scenario was below
the range of implied share value for the Status Quo scenario
generally did not support Broadview&#146;s fairness
determination. However, in reaching its fairness conclusion,
Broadview considered the results of all analyses taken as a
whole and did not necessarily place any particular reliance or
weight on any individual analysis, but instead concluded that
its analyses, taken as a whole, supported its determination. In
addition, in analyzing an individual analysis, Broadview
considered all metrics together and did not place any particular
reliance or weight on any individual metric, but instead
concluded that all of the analyses, taken as a whole, supported
its determination. No company utilized in the Public Company
Comparables analysis as a comparison is identical to AirGate. In
comparing the Status Quo scenario with the Pro Forma scenario,
Broadview made numerous assumptions with respect to the
companies comprising the comparables set and general economic
conditions, many of which are beyond the control of AirGate.

Broadview made particular note of the results of this analysis
because, in Broadview&#146;s view, AirGate&#146;s ability to
comply with its credit facility covenants is a material factor
in AirGate&#146;s ability to continue operating. However, in

<FONT size="2">Broadview considered the dilution to existing
AirGate stockholders that would result from the exchange offer.
Prior to the exchange offer, the existing AirGate stockholders
own 100% of the outstanding common stock. Following the exchange
offer, assuming 100% acceptance of the offer and excluding any
issuance of new equity to management, current stockholders would
own 44% of the outstanding common stock and current holders of
old notes would own 56% of the outstanding common stock. The
dilution from incremental shares issued impacted the Pro Forma
scenario analyses Broadview conducted and was considered when
Broadview compared Pro Forma Equity Values with Status Quo
Equity Values. Because the terms of any incentive compensation
package have not been determined as of the date of its opinion,
Broadview excluded the potential future impact of such
incentives in conducting its analyses.

savings and $140.0&nbsp;million in principal savings. Broadview
then estimated a present value of avoided cash interest and

$159.0&nbsp;million, by applying a range of discount rates from
10% to 20% to the cumulative savings. Broadview considered the
impact of such savings on AirGate&#146;s ability to comply with

AirGate&#146;s potential future defaults with respect to the

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Broadview reviewed both the book value and the
market value of the old notes to be exchanged in the exchange
offer to derive an implied price per share for the common stock
to be issued in the exchange. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003, the
old notes will have a book value of $262.1&nbsp;million. Holders
of the old notes who participate in the exchange offer (which is
assumed at 100%) will receive a package of new notes and AirGate
common stock in the exchange. The new notes will have a book
value of $160.0&nbsp;million and based on the market value of
publicly traded comparable debt a market value ranging from
$134.0&nbsp;million to $158.8&nbsp;million, with a median value
of $143.5&nbsp;million. The implied value of the equity issued
in the transaction, which will represent 56% of the pro forma
AirGate equity ownership based on a 100% acceptance rate, is the
difference between the value of the old notes and the value of
the new notes. Based on the proposed 56% equity ownership by the
holders of the old notes, AirGate will issue 33.0&nbsp;million
shares in the transaction, yielding an implied value per share
of $3.09. In conducting the analyses, Broadview considered that
the market value of the old notes was less than the book value.
Using the market value of the old notes and the median value for
the new notes, the analysis yielded an implied value per share
of $2.43.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Broadview, among other things, compared the
implied value per share with the recent closing share prices for
AirGate one day prior to the date of the opinion, twenty trading
days prior to the date of the opinion and sixty trading days
prior to the date of the opinion. Broadview also compared the
implied value per share with AirGate&#146;s twenty trading day
average closing share price and AirGate&#146;s sixty trading day
average closing share price. Each of the comparisons was
performed on both a book value and market value basis. The
implied premium analysis yields a range of premiums ranging from
(14.6%) to 153.5%.

equity greater than the market price for such shares. However,

prepared solely as part of Broadview&#146;s analysis of the
fairness, from a financial point of view, of the exchange offer,

<FONT size="2">Pursuant to the letter agreements dated
February&nbsp;27, 2003 and September&nbsp;24, AirGate engaged
Broadview to act as its financial advisor in connection with a
potential financial restructuring. Pursuant to the terms of the
engagement letter, Broadview will receive a fee of $4,129,283,
$600,000 which was payable upon delivery of its fairness opinion
and $3,529,383 which is payable upon completion of the exchange
offer. AirGate also paid Broadview a retainer fee of
$75,000&nbsp;per month and agreed to reimburse Broadview for all
out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred in connection with the
engagement including, but not limited to, travel, document
production and similar costs. Such expenses also included fees
from lawyers and other professional advisers that were engaged
during the process. Broadview will be paid its retainer fee for
a period of 10&nbsp;months and one half the total amount (or
$375,000) will be credited against the fee deliverable upon

restructuring to our existing shareholders, the board considered
the fact that, although existing stockholders would retain
approximately 44% of our outstanding common stock in the
restructuring, they would nevertheless retain majority control
of the expanded board of directors. With respect to the economic
dilutive effect, the board considered the fact that our existing
stockholders would have approximately 44% of the benefit of a
$140&nbsp;million reduction in debt ($100&nbsp;million on an
accreted basis). Based on the issuance of 33,000,000&nbsp;shares
of common stock in the restructuring, the per share
&#147;price&#148; to the holders of old notes would be between
$3.00 and $4.50. Given that our common stock was then trading
well below that range (the 30-day average trading price was less
than $2.00&nbsp;per share), the board also considered the fact
that, based on discussions with potential equity investors, no
third party would offer as much for our common stock.
Consequently, the board viewed dilution to our stockholders as
the cost of holding a smaller piece of a less financially risky
(from a credit standpoint) enterprise.

<FONT size="2">The board of directors did not attempt to
quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the
factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the
restructuring and the transactions contemplated thereby.
Furthermore, the board of directors did not undertake to make
any specific determination as to whether any particular factor
was essential to its decision to approve the terms of the
restructuring. Instead, the board of directors conducted an
overall analysis of the factors described above, which included
a thorough discussion of all of the above-listed factors with
its legal and financial advisors. Nevertheless, the board
considered the fact that certain metrics in Broadview&#146;s
fairness analysis under the &#147;status quo&#148; and &#147;pro
forma&#148; scenarios favored the status quo. However, the board
also considered the fact that, under the status quo scenario,
AirGate would not resolve its liquidity issues, and, as a
result, AirGate&#146;s ability to continue as a going concern
would be more uncertain. This consideration weighed heavily in
the board&#146;s evaluation of the restructuring. The board of
directors relied on the experience and expertise of our
financial advisors for quantitative analysis of the financial
terms of the restructuring. In considering the factors described
above, individual directors may have given different weights to
different factors or reached different conclusions as to whether
a specific factor weighed in favor of or against approving the
restructuring.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">As part of the recapitalization plan, we are
proposing to implement a 1&nbsp;for&nbsp;5 reverse split of our
common stock. The reverse stock split, by itself, will not have
any effect on stockholders&#146; proportionate equity interests
in AirGate, other than as a result of the elimination of
fractional shares. The reverse stock split will not have any
material impact on the aggregate capital represented by the
shares of common stock for financial statement purposes. The
adoption of the reverse stock split will reduce the number of
shares of stock authorized for issuance by a factor of five. The
rights and privileges of holders of shares of common stock will
remain the same after the reverse stock split. All of our
outstanding options and warrants will be proportionately
adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We propose to implement the reverse stock split
in connection with the relisting of our common stock on the
Nasdaq National Market. We currently intend to consummate the
relisting either concurrently with the consummation of the
exchange offer, or as promptly as possible thereafter. Pursuant
to the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, we must comply with
requirements regarding, among other things, number of shares
outstanding, market value of publicly held shares, total revenue
and total assets and a minimum bid price of $5&nbsp;per share.
We currently meet each of these requirements other than the
minimum bid price requirement. We believe that the 1 to 5 ratio
of the reverse stock split is sufficiently high to increase the
bid price of our common stock significantly above the $5 minimum
requirement.

<FONT size="2">The proxy statement will ask our stockholders to
approve an amendment and restatement of our certificate of
incorporation to implement the reverse stock split of our common
stock and the corresponding decrease in the number of authorized

our certificate of incorporation requires the affirmative vote
of holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common

in the exchange offer described in this prospectus and

tax purposes. An ownership change of AirGate would also have
caused an ownership change of our former wholly-owned
subsidiary, iPCS. This ownership change could have a detrimental
effect on the value of certain net operating losses of iPCS and,
consequently, could subject the restructuring to the automatic
stay protection of the iPCS bankruptcy court. In order to
prevent such an effect and after approval of the iPCS bankruptcy
court, on October&nbsp;17, 2003 we transferred all of our shares
of iPCS common stock into a trust organized under Delaware law.
Our stockholders of record on the date of transfer to the trust
are the trust&#146;s sole beneficiaries. Such stockholders&#146;
interest in the trust is equal to their percentage ownership of
AirGate on the date of transfer. Distribution from the trust
will only be made if directed by the iPCS board of directors

Notes</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Holders may not transfer record ownership of any
old notes validly tendered in the exchange offer and not validly
withdrawn. Beneficial ownership in tendered notes may be
transferred by the holder by delivering to the exchange agent,
at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this
prospectus and solicitation statement, an executed letter of
transmittal identifying the name of the person who deposited the
old notes to be transferred, and completing the special payment
instructions box with the name of the transferee (or, if
tendered by book-entry transfer, the name of the participant in
the book-entry transfer facility whose name appears on the
security position listing as the transferee of such old notes)
and the principal amount of the old notes to be transferred. If
certificates have been delivered or otherwise identified
(through a book-entry confirmation with respect to such old
notes) to the exchange agent, the name of the holder who
deposited the old notes, the name of the transferee and the
certificate numbers relating to such old notes should also be
provided in the letter of transmittal. A person who succeeds to
the beneficial ownership of tendered old notes pursuant to the
procedures set forth herein will be entitled to receive the
common stock and new notes if the old notes are accepted for
exchange, or to receive the tendered old notes if the exchange
offer is terminated.

a supplement to the old notes indenture to be executed by us and
the old notes indenture trustee. The old notes indenture
requires that holders of a majority in principal amount of old
notes, other than old notes owned by holders that are affiliated
with us, consent to the amendments. Pursuant to the amended
support agreement, holders of approximately 67% of our old notes
have agreed, subject to the conditions set forth therein, to
tender their old notes in the exchange offer and consent to the
proposed amendments, release and waivers. Old notes not tendered
in connection with the exchange offer will remain outstanding
but will not be entitled to the benefits of the existing
covenants and other provisions contained in the old notes
indenture that holders of old notes of this type typically enjoy.

court, which we refer to herein as a &#147;Reorganization
Case&#148;, under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the Bankruptcy Code nor
have we taken any corporate action authorizing the commencement
of such a case. This prospectus and solicitation statement
solicits advance acceptance of the prepackaged plan in the event
that a reorganization case is commenced and the prepackaged plan
is filed, and contains information relevant to a decision to
accept or reject the prepackaged plan.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the Bankruptcy Code and seek
confirmation of the prepackaged plan if the conditions to the

<FONT size="2">In order to enhance the likelihood that AirGate
will succeed in its restructuring efforts, AirGate has
formulated the prepackaged plan for the reorganization of
AirGate under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The
prepackaged plan generally provides the same benefits to AirGate
and the holders of the old notes as would the consummation of
the Exchange Offer. In the event that sufficient tenders and
consents have not been received from the holders of the old
notes to permit consummation of the recapitalization, but
sufficient ballots signifying acceptance of the prepackaged
plan, in the judgment of the Boards of Directors of AirGate, are
received to confirm the prepackaged plan, AirGate may file a
voluntary petition under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the Bankruptcy Code
and use such acceptances to confirm the prepackaged plan.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We are soliciting acceptances of the prepackaged
plan from the holders of our old notes pursuant to this
prospectus and solicitation statement. We are soliciting
acceptances of the prepackaged plan from our common stockholders
pursuant to the proxy statement distributed to them in
connection with the proxy solicitation.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<B><FONT size="2">Under the prepackaged plan, the holders of our
old notes (as well as the holders of all other claims and
interests except holders of &#147;below market&#148; warrants
and &#147;below market&#148; options) will receive the same
consideration in exchange for their claims and interests as they
would receive in the exchange offer in the event the prepackaged
plan is confirmed and becomes effective. Moreover, upon
confirmation, the prepackaged plan will be binding on
(i)&nbsp;all of our creditors regardless of whether such
creditors voted to accept the plan and (ii)&nbsp;all of our
equity security holders regardless of whether such equity
security holders voted to accept the plan.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Because &#147;below market&#148; warrants and
&#147;below market&#148; options will be cancelled and deemed
extinguished under the prepackaged plan, the holders of such
interests are deemed to have not accepted the plan, and we will
nevertheless seek to have the prepackaged plan confirmed under
the &#147;cram down&#148; provisions of Section&nbsp;1129(b) of
the Bankruptcy Code described below if we file the prepackaged
plan. The &#147;cram down&#148; provisions ensure that holders
of junior claims or interests cannot recover or retain any
property on account of that claim or interest in the debtor
under a plan that has been rejected by a senior class of
impaired claims or interests. Because there are no interests
that are junior to the &#147;below market&#148; warrants and the
&#147;below market&#148; options, we believe that
Section&nbsp;1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code will be met if that
class of interests is the only impaired, dissenting class of
claims and interests.

<B><FONT size="2">Anticipated Events in a Reorganization
Case</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Chapter&nbsp;11 is the principal business
reorganization chapter of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to
Chapter&nbsp;11, a debtor may remain in possession of its assets
and business and attempt to reorganize its business for the
benefit of the debtor, its creditors and other parties in
interest.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The commencement of a reorganization case creates
an estate comprising all the legal and equitable interests of a
debtor in property as of the date the petition is filed.
Sections&nbsp;1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code provide that
a debtor may continue to operate its business and remain in
possession of its property as a &#147;debtor in
possession,&#148; unless the bankruptcy court orders the
appointment of a trustee. The filing of a reorganization case
also triggers the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code. Section&nbsp;362 of the Bankruptcy Code provides, among
other things, for an automatic stay of all attempts to collect
prepetition claims from the debtor or otherwise interfere with
its property or business. Except as otherwise ordered by the
bankruptcy court, the automatic stay generally remains in full
force and effect until confirmation of a plan of reorganization.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Bankruptcy Code provides that upon
commencement of a Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy case, the Office of
the United States Trustee may appoint a committee of unsecured
creditors and may, in its discretion, appoint additional
committees of creditors or of equity security holders if
necessary to assure adequate representation. The Bankruptcy Code
provides that, once appointed, each official committee may
appear and be heard on any issue in the Chapter&nbsp;11 case and
may also consult with the trustee or debtor in possession
concerning the administration of the case and perform such other
services as are in the interest of those represented.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Upon commencement of a Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy
case, all creditors and equity security holders have standing to
be heard on any issue in the Chapter&nbsp;11 proceedings
pursuant to Section&nbsp;1109(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The formulation and confirmation of a plan of
reorganization is the principal objective of a Chapter&nbsp;11
case. The plan sets forth the means for satisfying the claims
against and interests in the debtor. The prepackaged plan we
propose provides for the reorganization of our capital
structure, thereby enabling us to continue as a viable business
enterprise.

Prepackaged Plan</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Usually, a plan of reorganization is filed and
votes to accept or reject the plan are solicited after the
filing of a reorganization case. Nevertheless, a debtor may
solicit votes prior to the commencement of a reorganization case
in accordance with Section&nbsp;1126(b) of the Bankruptcy Code
and Bankruptcy Rule&nbsp;3018(b). In accordance with such

<FONT size="2">Chapter&nbsp;11 does not require that each holder
of a claim against or interest in a debtor vote in favor of a
plan of reorganization in order for the bankruptcy court to
confirm the plan. The Bankruptcy Code requires that each claim
or interest be placed in a class with claims or interests that
are &#147;substantially similar&#148;. Consents to a plan of
reorganization are then solicited and tallied for each class. At
a minimum, at least one class of impaired claims (without
including any acceptance of the plan by any insider of the
debtor) under the plan must vote to accept the plan. An impaired
class of claims will be deemed to accept the prepackaged plan if
the holders of claims in that class casting votes in favor of
acceptance of the prepackaged plan (1)&nbsp;hold at least
two-thirds in aggregate dollar amount of the claims of the
holders in such class who cast votes with respect to the
prepackaged plan, and (2)&nbsp;constitute more than one-half in
number of holders of allowed claims in such class who cast votes
with respect to the prepackaged plan. An impaired class of
interests will be deemed to accept the prepackaged plan if the
holders of interests in that class casting votes in favor of
acceptance of the prepackaged plan hold at least two-thirds in
amount of the allowed interests in such class who cast votes
with respect to the prepackaged plan.

Bankruptcy Code, classes of claims or interests that are not

conclusively presumed to have accepted the plan of
reorganization and are not entitled to vote. By contrast,
pursuant to section&nbsp;1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, classes
of claims or interests that do not receive or retain any
property under a plan on account of such claims or interests are
deemed to have rejected the plan and do not vote. Acceptances of
the prepackaged plan are being solicited only from those persons
who hold claims or interests in a class which may be impaired
under the prepackaged plan and who are not deemed by the
Bankruptcy Code to have accepted or rejected the prepackaged
plan as described above. A class of claims or interests is

Interests</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Section&nbsp;1123 of the Bankruptcy Code provides
that a plan of reorganization must classify claims against, and
interests in, a debtor. Under Section&nbsp;1122 of the
Bankruptcy Code, a plan of reorganization may classify claims
and interests only into classes containing claims and interests
which are &#147;substantially similar&#148; to such claims or
interests. The prepackaged plan designates six classes of claims
and three classes of interests. A plan of reorganization cannot
be confirmed if there has been an improper classification of
claims and interests.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We believe that we have classified all claims and
interests in compliance with the provisions of Section&nbsp;1122
of the Bankruptcy Code. However, once our reorganization case
has been commenced, a claim holder or interest holder could
challenge our classification of claims and interests, and the
bankruptcy court could determine that a different classification
is required for the prepackaged plan to be confirmed. In such
event, it is our intention to seek to modify the prepackaged
plan to provide for whatever classification might be required by
the bankruptcy court and to use the sufficient acceptances
received, to the extent permitted by the bankruptcy court, to
demonstrate the acceptance of the class or classes which are
affected. Any such reclassification could affect a class&#146;s
acceptance of the prepackaged plan by changing the composition
of such class and the required vote for acceptance of the
prepackaged plan and could potentially require a resolicitation
of votes on the prepackaged plan.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The prepackaged plan provides for the
classification and treatment of claims and our interest holders
allowed under Section&nbsp;502 of the Bankruptcy Code. Only the
holder of an allowed claim or an allowed interest is entitled to
receive a distribution under the prepackaged plan.

we have determined that confirmation of the prepackaged plan

Moreover, we believe that the value of any distributions from
the liquidation proceeds to each class of allowed claims and
interests in a Chapter&nbsp;7 case would be less than the value
of distributions under the prepackaged plan because such
distributions in Chapter&nbsp;7 may not occur for a substantial
period of time. In this regard, it is possible that distribution
of the proceeds of the liquidation could be delayed for a
substantial time after the completion of such liquidation to
resolve all objections to claims and prepare for distributions.

requires that in a Chapter&nbsp;7 bankruptcy case, if a trustee
does not assume or reject an executory contract within the first
60&nbsp;days of that bankruptcy case (or within such additional
period of time as the court for cause within such initial
60&nbsp;day period fixes), then such contract is deemed
rejected. It is because of this short time period allotted by
the Bankruptcy Code that many Chapter&nbsp;7 bankruptcy trustees
do not sell assets as a going concern and instead sell them in a
more piece meal fashion. As indicated above, the liquidation
analysis assumes an orderly, yet expedited sale, such as an
auction or other similar sale of our assets, occurring over a
period of six months. In liquidation, the Sprint agreements
would likely be rejected pursuant to section&nbsp;365(d)(1) of

determination by the bankruptcy court as to extensions of our
exclusive period within which to propose a plan of
reorganization (which is the first 120&nbsp;days after the
commencement of reorganization case, subject to reduction or
extension by the bankruptcy court), any other party in interest
in our reorganization case could attempt to formulate and
propose a different plan or plans of reorganization. Such plans
could involve a reorganization and continuation of our
businesses, a sale of our business as a going concern, an
orderly liquidation of our assets, or any combination thereof.
If no plan of reorganization is confirmed by the bankruptcy
court, our reorganization case may be converted to a liquidation
case under Chapter&nbsp;7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In that event,
the bankruptcy court may grant holders of secured claims relief
from the automatic stay to foreclose on their collateral and,
accordingly, our valuable assets may be lost.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In a Chapter&nbsp;7 case, a trustee would be
appointed or elected with the primary duty of liquidating our
assets. Typically, in a liquidation, assets are sold for less
than their going concern value and, accordingly, the return to
creditors would be reduced. Proceeds from liquidation would be
distributed to our creditors in accordance with the priorities
set forth in the Bankruptcy Code.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Because of the difficulties in estimating what
our assets would bring in a liquidation and the uncertainties
concerning the aggregate claims to be paid and their priority in
liquidation, it is not possible to predict with certainty what
return, if any, each class of claims or interests might receive
in a liquidation. Nevertheless, we believe that the most likely
result would be the sale of our assets at a price which is
significantly less than needed to pay our debts in full. We
believe that holders of impaired claims and interests would
realize a greater recovery under the prepackaged plan than would
be realized under a Chapter&nbsp;7 liquidation.

with similar priorities and characteristics receive or retain
property of similar value under a plan. By establishing separate
classes for the holders of each type of claim or interest and by
treating each holder of a claim or interest in each class
identically, the prepackaged plan has been structured so as to
meet the &#147;unfair discrimination&#148; test of
Section&nbsp;1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

<FONT size="2">The Bankruptcy Code sets forth different
standards for establishing that a plan is &#147;fair and

whether the class is comprised of secured or unsecured claims or
interests. In general, Section&nbsp;1129(b) of the Bankruptcy
Code permits confirmation notwithstanding non-acceptance by an
impaired class if that class and all junior classes are treated
in accordance with the &#147;absolute priority&#148; rule, which
requires that the dissenting class be paid in full before a
junior class may receive any distributions under the plan. In
addition, case law surrounding Section&nbsp;1129(b) requires
that no class senior to a non-accepting impaired class receives
more than payment in full on its claims.

be required to make the cash payments that are to be made
pursuant to the provisions of the prepackaged plan, i.e., the
cash required to pay administrative claims, trade claims and
employee expenses during our reorganization case. We estimate
that our existing cash on the date the prepackaged plan becomes
effective will be sufficient to cover our cash obligations under
the prepackaged plan, as well as provide us with sufficient
working capital to meet our ongoing obligations and any
additional cash needs. Our estimate of the claims includes
approximately $40&nbsp;million in claims by Sprint. Of that
amount, we dispute at least $13&nbsp;million, of which
$8.9&nbsp;million was invoiced by Sprint at September&nbsp;30,
2003. Consequently, we believe that the amount of funds that
will be needed on the date the prepackaged plan becomes

$72&nbsp;million.

<FONT size="2">We prepared these projections to analyze our
ability to meet our obligations under the restructuring and to
assist each holder of a claim in determining whether to vote to
accept or reject the prepackaged plan. These projections are
contained in this prospectus and solicitation statement as
required in connection with the filing of the prepackaged plan,
and, accordingly, should not be taken into account in making
your decision to tender your old notes in the exchange offer.
The projections were not prepared to conform to the guidelines
established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants regarding financial forecasts and were neither
audited, compiled nor reviewed by our independent public
auditors. While presented with numerical specificity, these
projections are based upon a variety of assumptions, and are
subject to significant business, economic, and competitive
uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our
control. Consequently, the inclusion of the projections should
not be regarded as a representation by us (or any other person)
that the projections will be realized, and actual results will
vary materially from those presented below. See &#147;Risk
Factors&#148; and &#147;Forward Looking Statements&#148; for a
discussion of factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from these projections. The financial projections are
based on assumptions which we believe are reasonable but
inherently contain significant uncertainties. Furthermore, such
projections do not give effect to any savings or costs that may
be associated with a settlement or resolution of our disputes
with Sprint or, except as described below, any outsourcing of
services provided by Sprint. Holders are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these financial projections.

are those that management believes are significant to the
projections. It is highly likely that there will be differences
between projected and actual results, because events and
circumstances frequently do not occur as expected, and those
differences may be material. Events that could cause actual

significantly impacted if the recapitalization plan does not
occur and AirGate seeks to forego the recapitalization plan and
instead seeks to accomplish the restructuring by means of the
prepackaged plan. Management expressly disclaims a duty to

Metrics</FONT></B>

<FONT size="2">We use certain operating and financial measures
that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States, or &#147;GAAP.&#148;
A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure
of a company&#146;s financial performance that (i)&nbsp;excludes
amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of
excluding amounts, that are included in the comparable measure
calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the
statement of income or statement of cash flows; or
(ii)&nbsp;includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that
have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the
comparable measure so calculated and presented.

<FONT size="2">Terms such as subscriber net additions, average
revenue per user (&#147;ARPU&#148;), churn, cost per gross
addition (&#147;CPGA&#148;) and cash cost per user
(&#147;CCPU&#148;) are important operating metrics used in the
wireless telecommunications industry. These metrics are
important in comparing us to other wireless service providers.
ARPU, CCPU and CPGA also assist management in budgeting and CPGA
also assists management in quantifying the incremental costs to
acquire a new subscriber. Except for churn and net subscriber
additions, we have included a reconciliation of these metrics to
the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Churn and
subscriber net additions are operating statistics with no
comparable GAAP financial measure. ARPU, CPGA and CCPU are
supplements to GAAP financial information and should not be
considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, revenues,
expenses or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP. In
calculating CCPU, we exclude depreciation and amortization and
selling and marketing expenses. CCPU is intended to provide an
estimate of the ongoing cash costs of maintaining our existing
subscribers. By excluding depreciation and amortization, the
non-cash costs of assets needed to support our subscribers is
not apparent. Further, by excluding selling and marketing
expenses, all expenses to continue operating our business are
not apparent to investors.

have assumed that our outstanding old notes will be exchanged
for 33,041,516&nbsp;shares of our common stock and
$160.0&nbsp;million in aggregate principal amount of new notes.
The carrying value of our old notes represents the face value of
the debt adjusted for unamortized original issue discount,
unamortized debt issuance costs and the unamortized value of
warrants issued in connection with the debt. In accordance with
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;15, a gain will not be recorded when the
restructuring is complete, because the adjusted carrying amount
of the old notes is greater than the maximum future cash
payments (including future interest payments) of the new notes.
The effects of the restructuring will therefore be accounted for
prospectively as a decrease in the effective interest rate on
the new notes.

<FONT size="2">The consummation of the recapitalization plan is
expected to result in an ownership change under the provisions
of Section&nbsp;382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly,
AirGate would be subject to an annual limitation on the use of
net operating losses generated prior to the ownership change.
Based on this limitation, and excluding potential
&#147;built-in&#148; gains that may be realized after the
consummation of the recapitalization plan, the projections for
the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 assumes that
approximately $190.0&nbsp;million in net operating losses would
expire unused based on an assumed fair value of the
Company&#146;s common stock at the transaction date of $2.00 per
share. Additionally, as a result of the recapitalization plan,
the Company may not receive a tax deduction for interest that
had been accreted on the old notes that would be tendered as
part of the recapitalization plan. The non-cash interest that
accreted on these notes has been reflected as a deferred tax
asset in the Company&#146;s historical financial statements, but
has had a full valuation allowance against it. These matters are

<FONT size="2">The projected statements of operations have been
prepared based on certain assumptions shown in the Schedule of
Significant Assumptions prepared by management. These
assumptions are based on and include stable gross subscriber
additions and slightly lower average revenue per user. Our
assumptions do not take into account declines or improvements of
general economic conditions or their impact on our operations.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Service Revenue </FONT></I><FONT size="2">is
derived from various types of typically recurring services
associated with wireless communications services including
monthly recurring access and feature charges and monthly
non-recurring charges for local, wireless long distance and
roaming airtime usage in excess of the subscribed usage plan.
Service revenues are calculated based upon the projected number
of subscribers in AirGate&#146;s territory and the projected
ARPU in the Schedule of Significant Assumptions. Subscriber
growth over the projected period is based on AirGate&#146;s
current experience and business plans and current trends in the
markets in which AirGate operates. Key drivers for this
assumption are projected gross subscriber additions and churn.
ARPU in the accompanying Schedule of Significant Assumptions
represents the average revenue per subscriber generated by
AirGate subscribers and excludes inbound travel and roaming
revenue.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Roaming Revenue </FONT></I><FONT size="2">is
generated when subscribers from other wireless service providers
travel or roam onto AirGate&#146;s PCS network. AirGate receives
roaming revenue at a per-minute rate from Sprint and other
Sprint PCS network partners when Sprint&#146;s or its network
partner&#146;s PCS subscribers from outside of AirGate&#146;s
territory use AirGate&#146;s network. AirGate pays the same
reciprocal roaming rate when subscribers from our territory use
the network of Sprint or its other PCS network partners. AirGate
also receives non-Sprint roaming revenue when subscribers of
other wireless service providers who have roaming agreements
with Sprint roam on AirGate&#146;s network. The projected travel
revenues are based on projected minutes of inbound travel or
roaming traffic taking into account the number of expected sites
on air, the growth in the number of subscribers for other
carriers who would potentially roam onto AirGate&#146;s network
and estimates of roaming rates per minute of use. Sprint has the
right to modify travel rates, subject to the limitations in our
agreements with Sprint.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Equipment Revenue </FONT></I><FONT size="2">is
generated when we sell wireless personal communications handsets
and accessories that are used by our subscribers in connection
with our wireless services. Equipment revenue is derived from
the sale of handsets and accessories from AirGate owned stores,
net of sales incentives, rebates and an allowance for returns.
AirGate&#146;s handset return policy allows subscribers to
return their handsets for a full refund within 14 days of
purchase. When handsets are returned to AirGate, AirGate may be
able to reissue the handsets to subscribers at little additional
cost. When handsets are returned to Sprint for refurbishing,
AirGate receives a credit from Sprint, which is approximately
equal to the retail price of the refurbished handset. Equipment
revenue is driven primarily by handset sales to new customers
and our existing subscriber base.

required to be competitive in the marketplace.

revenue. Under the management agreement with Sprint, when a
national retailer sells a handset purchased from Sprint to a
subscriber from AirGate&#146;s territory, AirGate is obligated
to reimburse Sprint for the handset subsidy and commissions that
Sprint originally incurred. Sales and Marketing expense is
measured against gross subscriber additions in determining CPGA.
The projected CPGA set forth in the Schedule of Significant
Assumptions is based on AirGate&#146;s historical CPGA and
assumes that there is no further consolidation within the
wireless industry to mitigate the intense competition that has
been experienced to date.

to the Trust&nbsp;Indenture Act of 1939. The Notes are subject
to all such terms, and reference is made to the Indenture and
the Trust&nbsp;Indenture Act for a statement of those terms. The
Indenture will be qualified as an indenture under the
Trust&nbsp;Indenture Act.

Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries,&#148;
AirGate will be permitted to designate Subsidiaries meeting
particular requirements as &#147;Unrestricted

<FONT size="2">If AirGate fails to make any payment on the Notes
when due or within any applicable grace period, whether or not
on account of the payment blockage provisions referred to below,
such failure would constitute an Event of Default under the
Indenture and would enable the holders to accelerate the
maturity thereof. The rights of the holders of Notes to receive

recover less ratably than creditors of AirGate who are holders

<FONT size="2">The right of the Trustee to foreclose upon and

Collateral upon the occurrence of an Event of Default is likely
to be significantly impaired by applicable bankruptcy law if a
bankruptcy case were to be commenced by or against AirGate prior
to the Trustee having repossessed and disposed of, or otherwise
exercised remedies in respect of, the Collateral. Under the
Bankruptcy Code, a secured creditor such as the Trustee is
prohibited from repossessing its collateral from a debtor in a
bankruptcy case, or from disposing of collateral repossessed
from such debtor, without bankruptcy court approval. Moreover,
the Bankruptcy Code permits the debtor to continue to retain and
to use collateral even though the debtor is in default under the
applicable debt instruments, provided that the secured creditor
is given &#147;adequate protection.&#148; The meaning of the
term &#147;adequate protection&#148; may vary according to
circumstances, but it is intended in general to protect the
value of the secured creditor&#146;s interest in the collateral
and may include cash payments or the granting of additional
collateral, if and at such times as the court in its discretion
determines, for any diminution in the value of the collateral as
a result of the stay of repossession or disposition or any use
of the collateral by the debtor during the pendency of the
bankruptcy case. In view of the lack of a precise definition of
the term &#147;adequate protection&#148; and the broad
discretionary powers of a bankruptcy court, it is impossible to
predict how long payments with respect to the Notes could be
delayed following commencement of a bankruptcy case, whether or
when the Trustee could foreclose upon or dispose of the
Collateral or whether or to what extent Holders of the Notes
would be adequately compensated for any delay in payment or loss
of value of the Collateral.

aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to
the right of holders of record on the relevant date to receive

the Change of Control Payment Date specified in such notice,

such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control.

<FONT size="2">The provisions described above that require
AirGate to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of
Control will be applicable regardless of whether or not any
other provisions of the Indenture are applicable. Except as
described above with respect to a Change of Control, the
Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders of
the Notes to require that AirGate repurchase or redeem the Notes
in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar
transaction.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">AirGate&#146;s outstanding Senior Debt currently
prohibits AirGate from purchasing any Notes, and also provides
that certain change of control events with respect to AirGate
would constitute a default under the agreements governing the
Senior Debt. Any future credit agreements or other agreements
relating to Senior Debt to which AirGate becomes a party may
contain similar restrictions and provisions. In the event a
Change of Control occurs at a time when AirGate is prohibited
from purchasing Notes, AirGate could seek the consent of its
senior lenders to the purchase of Notes or could attempt to
refinance the borrowings that contain such prohibition. If
AirGate does not obtain such a consent or repay such borrowings,
AirGate will remain prohibited from purchasing Notes. In such
case, AirGate&#146;s failure to purchase tendered Notes would
constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture which would,
in turn, constitute a default under such Senior Debt. In such
circumstances, the subordination provisions in the Indenture
would likely restrict payments to the holders of Notes.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">AirGate will not be required to make a Change of
Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes
the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and
otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the
Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by
AirGate and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not
withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The definition of Change of Control includes a
phrase relating to the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or
other disposition of &#147;all or substantially all&#148; of the
assets of AirGate and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting, the
phrase &#147;substantially all,&#148; there is no precise
established definition of the phrase under applicable law.
Accordingly, the ability of a holder of Notes to require AirGate
to repurchase such Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer,
conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets
of AirGate and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another
Person or group is uncertain.

<FONT size="2">We entered into the credit facility on
August&nbsp;16, 1999 with certain lenders pursuant to which they
agreed to provide a credit facility in the amount of up to
$153.5&nbsp;million. We have drawn the entire amount available
under the credit facility.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The credit facility provides for
(1)&nbsp;$13.5&nbsp;million in senior secured debt
(&#147;Tranche&nbsp;1&#148;) which matures June&nbsp;6, 2007 and
(2)&nbsp;$140.0&nbsp;million in senior secured debt
(&#147;Tranche&nbsp;2&#148;) which matures September&nbsp;30,
2008.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The principal amount of each tranche amortizes in
19 quarterly installments according to a graduated schedule.
Amortization of Tranche&nbsp;1 began in December&nbsp;2002, with
final maturity occurring June&nbsp;6, 2007. Amortization of
Tranche&nbsp;2 will begin in March 2004, and final maturity will
occur September&nbsp;30, 2008.

Holders</FONT></B>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Consequences of the Exchange to U.S.
Holders</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">As discussed below, a tendering holder generally
will not recognize gain or loss on the exchange of old notes for
new notes and common stock for purposes of United States federal
income taxation if both the old notes and the new notes qualify
as securities for United States federal income tax purposes. See
also the discussion below under the heading &#147;Accrued
Interest.&#148; None of the Code, the applicable Treasury
Regulations, or judicial decisions define clearly the term
&#147;securities.&#148; The determination of whether a debt
instrument is a security for United States federal income tax
purposes depends upon an overall evaluation of the facts and
circumstances surrounding the debt instrument, including the
nature of the debt instrument, the holder&#146;s degree of
participation and the extent of proprietary interest compared
with the similarity of the debt instrument to a cash payment.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">One important factor is the length to maturity of
the debt instrument. Generally, a debt instrument with an
original maturity of ten years or more constitutes a security,
while a debt instrument with an original maturity of less than
five years or arising out of the extension of trade credit does
not. It is not certain whether the old notes and the new notes
(with original maturities of approximately ten years and six
years, respectively) qualify as securities. Because the terms of
the new notes are less than 10&nbsp;years and the new notes are
secured, KPMG LLP cannot opine with certainty on the issue of
whether or not the exchange will be treated as a tax-free
&#147;recapitalization&#148; under the Code. Nevertheless, based
upon all of the facts and circumstances surrounding these
instruments, including the financial condition of our
corporation at the time each of these instruments was issued,
and the instruments&#146; subordination, KPMG LLP believes it is
more likely than not that the old notes and the new notes will
be treated as securities for U.S. Federal income tax purposes
even though the new notes have an initial term of less than ten
years. However, there can be no assurance that the IRS or a
court of competent jurisdiction would not reach a different or
contrary conclusion.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Accordingly, subject to the discussion below
under &#147;Accrued Interest,&#148; assuming that both the old
notes and the new notes qualify as securities and the exchange
is treated as a recapitalization within the meaning of
Section&nbsp;368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, a tendering holder that
exchanges old notes for new notes and common stock should not
recognize taxable gain or loss as a result of the exchange,
should have an aggregate tax basis in the new notes and common
stock equal to its adjusted tax basis in the old notes
surrendered in the exchange (which aggregate tax basis should be
allocated between the new notes and common stock based on the
relative fair market values of these instruments on the date of
the exchange) and should include its holding period for the old
notes in its holding period for the new notes and common

<FONT size="2">stock. As described below under the heading
&#147;Determination of Issue Price&#148;, we will provide
tendering holders with information regarding the relative fair
market values of the new notes and common stock.
</FONT>
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Due to the facts and circumstances nature of the
determination regarding whether a debt instrument is a security,
a court could determine that either or both of the old notes or
the new notes do not constitute securities. In the event of a
successful challenge by the IRS that the old notes do not
qualify as securities, the exchange will not qualify as a
tax-free recapitalization under the Code. In that case, a
tendering holder would recognize capital gain or loss on the
exchange equal to the difference between the aggregate issue
price of the new notes and fair market value of the common stock
received, and the holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in its old
notes, subject to the discussion under &#147;Accrued
Interest&#148; and &#147;Market Discount&#148; below. In the
event that the new notes do not qualify as securities but the
old notes do qualify as securities, the exchange still should
qualify as a partially tax-free recapitalization. However, the
new notes in that case would constitute &#147;boot&#148; in a
reorganization. Accordingly, a tendering holder generally would
recognize capital gain (but not loss) in an amount equal to the
lesser of (i)&nbsp;the difference between the aggregate issue
price of the new notes and the fair market value of the common
stock received, and the holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in its
old notes and (ii)&nbsp;the fair market value on the date of the
exchange of the new notes received, subject to the discussion
under &#147;Accrued Interest,&#148; and &#147;Market
Discount&#148; below.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Unless clearly stated to the contrary, the
remainder of this discussion of &#147;Material United States
Federal Income Tax Consequences&#148; assumes that the exchange
will be a recapitalization under the Code and that both the old
notes and new notes are securities for United States federal
income tax purposes.

<FONT size="2">It is possible that the IRS may take the position
that some portion of the total consideration paid under the
recapitalization plan or the prepackaged plan should not be
treated as part of the exchange, but should instead be treated
as a separate payment in the nature of compensation for the U.S.
Holders&#146; consent to the financial restructuring. To the
extent that any portion of the consideration is so treated, that
portion will not be taken into account in determining the
consequences to U.S. Holders of the exchange, as described
above, but instead will be taxable to such U.S. Holders as
ordinary income.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The determination of the issue price of the new
notes will depend on whether the new notes or the old notes are
publicly traded within the meaning of applicable Regulations.
The new notes or the old notes will be treated as publicly
traded if, at any time during the 60-day period ending
30&nbsp;days after the issue date of the new notes, the new
notes or the old notes were traded on an established market. We
believe that the old notes may be considered to be traded on an
established market for these purposes. We do not intend to apply
for the new notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to
arrange for quotation on any automated dealer quotation system.
Nevertheless, a market for the new notes could be established.
Accordingly, it is not clear whether the new notes will be
considered to be publicly traded for purposes of determining
their issue price. If the new notes are considered to be
publicly traded, the issue price of the new notes will equal
their fair market value on the date of the exchange. If the new
notes are not considered to be publicly traded, but the old
notes are considered to be publicly traded, the fair market
value of the old notes on the date of the exchange will be
allocated between the new notes and the common stock based on
their relative fair market values, and the issue price of the
new notes will equal the portion of such fair market value
allocated to the new notes. We will provide each tendering
holder with an allocation schedule reflecting the allocation of
the issue price between the new notes and the common stock held
by the tendering holder. If neither the old notes nor the new
notes are considered to be publicly traded, the issue price of
the new notes will equal their stated principal amounts.

<FONT size="2">To the extent that any amount of the

attributable to accrued and unpaid interest not previously

treated as ordinary interest income, even if the holder
otherwise does not recognize gain or loss in the exchange. In
addition, a loss may be recognized by the holder to the extent
that the consideration received for accrued and unpaid interest
is less than the amount of accrued and unpaid interest that the
holder has included previously in income. The extent to which
the consideration received in the exchange will be attributable
to accrued but unpaid interest is unclear under the tax laws.
Treasury Regulations generally treat payments under a debt
instrument first as a payment of accrued and unpaid interest and
then as a payment of principal; however, it is not clear whether
such Regulations apply to payments made in satisfaction of a
distressed debt instrument. We intend to take the position for
tax reporting purposes that the issue price of the new notes and
the fair market value of the common stock will be allocated
first to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and then to
the principal.

subsequently recognize ordinary income for amounts allocable to
such accrued market discount upon any partial principal payment
on the new notes, gain realized on the sale, exchange,
retirement or other disposition of the new notes or common stock
and unrealized appreciation on some nontaxable dispositions of
the new notes or common stock unless the holder of the old notes
included the accrued market discount in income in accordance
with an election to do so under the Code. An old note generally
will be considered to have been acquired with market discount if
the issue price of the old notes at the time of acquisition
exceeded the initial tax basis of the old notes in the hands of
the U.S. Holder by more than a specified de minimis amount.
Market discount accrues in equal amounts during each complete

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">If the restructuring is implemented pursuant to
the recapitalization plan, then a holder of the old notes that
does not participate in the exchange offer could potentially
have a taxable event if the proposed amendments are adopted.
Under general principles of tax law, the modification of a debt
instrument creates a deemed exchange (upon which gain or loss
may be realized) if the modified debt instrument differs
materially either in kind or in extent from the original debt
instrument. Under applicable Regulations, the modification of a
debt instrument is a &#147;significant&#148; modification, which
will create a deemed exchange if, based on all the facts and
circumstances and taking into account all modifications of the
debt instrument collectively, the legal rights or obligations
that are altered and the degree to which they are altered is
&#147;economically significant.&#148;
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Regulations provide that a modification of a
debt instrument that changes the priority of a debt instrument
relative to other debt instruments, or that releases collateral
for a debt instrument is a significant modification if it
results in a change in payment expectations. We believe that the
subordination of the remaining old notes to the new notes and
the release of collateral for the old notes likely would result
in a change in payment expectations, and thus that there likely
is a significant modification. If the adoption of the proposed
amendments is found to result in a deemed exchange of the old
notes for different notes, and both the old notes and the
different notes constitute &#147;securities,&#148; as discussed
above under &#147;Consequences of the Exchange to U.S.
Holders,&#148; the deemed exchange of the old notes would
constitute a tax-free recapitalization for United States federal
income tax purposes and no gain or loss would be recognized by
U.S. Holders of the old notes (except with respect to accrued
interest, as discussed above), the tax basis in the different
notes would equal the basis of the old notes, and the holding
period for the different notes would include the holding period
for the old notes.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">If the adoption of the proposed amendments is
found to result in a deemed exchange but the deemed exchange
does not qualify as a tax-free recapitalization, a U.S. Holder
of the old notes would recognize gain or loss in an amount equal
to the difference between the issue price of the different notes

on use of losses under the recapitalization plan</FONT></I></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Under Section&nbsp;382 of the Code, if a
corporation undergoes an ownership change, the amount of its
pre-change losses that may be utilized to offset future taxable
income generally will be subject to an annual limitation. Such
limitation may also apply to subsequently recognized
&#147;built-in&#148; losses, e.g., losses economically accrued
but unrecognized as of the date of the ownership change. In
general, the annual limitation would be equal to the product of
(i)&nbsp;the value of the loss corporation&#146;s outstanding
stock immediately before the ownership change (with certain
adjustments) and (ii)&nbsp;the &#147;long-term tax-exempt
rate&#148; in effect (currently, approximately 4.6%) for the
month in which the ownership change occurs. Any unused portion
of the annual limitation would be available in subsequent years.
As discussed below, however, special rules may apply in the case
of a corporation that experiences an ownership change as the
result of a bankruptcy case.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In general, an ownership change occurs if the
percentage of the value of the loss corporation&#146;s stock
owned by one or more direct or indirect 5%&nbsp;stockholders (as
specially defined for purposes of Section&nbsp;382 of the Code)
has increased by more than 50&nbsp;percentage points over the
lowest percentage of that value owned by such
5%&nbsp;stockholders at any time during a three-year testing
period. We underwent an ownership change on November&nbsp;30,
2001. Nevertheless, we believe that the amount of our NOLs and
NOL carryovers available for use is sufficient (for regular tax
purposes) to offset amounts of COD income expected to arise from
the exchange of the new notes and common stock for the old notes
under the recapitalization plan because (i)&nbsp;unused portions
of the limitation from the 2001 ownership change may be carried
forward to increase the limitation in future years, and
(ii)&nbsp;NOLs and NOL carryovers arising after the 2001
ownership change currently are not limited by Section&nbsp;382
of the Code. See &#147;&#151;&nbsp;Alternative Minimum Tax&#148;
below.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">If the exchange of the new notes and common stock
for the old notes under the recapitalization plan, alone or in
combination with prior and subsequent ownership shifts, results
in a greater than 50&nbsp;percent change in ownership, our NOL
carryovers will be subject to an annual limitation as described
above. We believe that we will undergo another ownership change
as a result of the exchange of the new notes and common stock
for the old notes under the recapitalization plan or the
prepackaged plan unless the Bankruptcy Exception, as described
below, applies. Any Section&nbsp;382 limitation resulting from
such ownership change under the recapitalization plan would
apply to all NOLs from periods (or portions thereof) ending on
or before the change date (and certain built-in losses
recognized thereafter).

on use of losses under the prepackaged plan</FONT></I></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">If an ownership change occurs while a corporation
is the subject of a bankruptcy case, a special bankruptcy
exception (the &#147;Bankruptcy Exception&#148;) may apply which
renders the annual limitation inapplicable. The Bankruptcy
Exception may apply to us if our stockholders and certain of our
creditors (determined immediately before the ownership change)
own in the aggregate (after such ownership change and as a
result of being stockholders or creditors immediately before
such change) stock representing 50 percent or more of both the
value and voting power of our total outstanding stock after the
prepackaged plan is consummated. Although our NOLs arising prior
to the effective date of the prepackaged plan and, potentially,
certain built-in losses recognized after the effective date of
the prepackaged plan would not be subject to the annual
limitation if the Bankruptcy Exception applies to us, our
pre-change NOLs, nevertheless, would be reduced by any interest
deductions taken by us with respect to the portion of the old
notes exchanged for common stock during the taxable year in
which the consummation of the prepackaged plan occurs and in the
three preceding taxable years. If a second ownership change
occurs during the two-year period immediately following the
consummation of the prepackaged plan, the Bankruptcy Exception
would effectively eliminate our ability to use any NOLs incurred
prior to such second ownership change to offset income earned in
any period following the second ownership change.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Section&nbsp;382 provides that a corporation
under the jurisdiction of a bankruptcy court may elect out of
the Bankruptcy Exception even if the corporation meets all of
the requirements thereof. Although we believe that the
prepackaged plan should qualify for the Bankruptcy Exception, we
have not yet determined whether it would be advantageous to
elect out of the Bankruptcy Exception. We will continue to
evaluate the merits of making such election and may do so at our
discretion.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">If we do not qualify for the Bankruptcy Exception
or elect out of the Bankruptcy Exception, a special rule under
Section&nbsp;382 applicable to corporations under the
jurisdiction of a bankruptcy court that are not subject to the
Bankruptcy Exception will apply in calculating our annual
limitation in connection with the prepackaged plan. Under this
special rule, the annual limitation generally will be calculated
by reference to the lesser of (i)&nbsp;the value of our stock
(with certain adjustments) immediately after the ownership
change (as opposed to immediately before the ownership change,
as discussed above) or (ii) the value of our assets (determined
without regard to liabilities) immediately before the ownership
change. Although such calculation may increase the annual
limitation, our use of any NOLs and built-in losses (if any)
remaining after the consummation of the prepackaged plan would
still be limited after the ownership change.

of Debt Income</FONT></I></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Although the governing law is ambiguous, we
believe that we will realize income from cancellation of
indebtedness (&#147;COD&#148;) as a result of the exchange to
the extent the fair market value of the common stock and the
issue price of the new notes issued in exchange for the old
notes is less than the &#147;adjusted issue price&#148; of the
old notes (generally including any accrued but unpaid interest).
Thus, the precise amount of COD income that we will realize
cannot be determined until the date of the exchange.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We will not recognize such COD income to the
extent we are considered insolvent from a tax perspective
immediately prior to the debt exchange. Taxable income will
result to the extent COD income exceeds the amount by which we
are considered to be insolvent immediately prior to the
completion of the restructuring. If this exception applies, we
will be required to reduce certain of our tax attributes,
including our net operating losses and loss carryforwards, to
the extent such income is excluded from taxable income. To the
extent that we are considered solvent and realize COD income,
our available losses may offset all or a portion of the COD
income.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">To the extent the discharge of our old notes
occurs in a Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy case pursuant to the
prepackaged plan, COD income will be excluded with a
corresponding tax attribute reduction. However, the limitation
on use of our remaining tax attributes may not apply or may
apply with different effect.

minimum tax</FONT></I></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">COD income realized in excess of available and
non-limited losses will result in a tax liability. Additionally,
we may incur an alternative minimum tax (&#147;AMT&#148;)
liability regardless of whether our COD income exceeds available
and non-limited losses. In general, an AMT is imposed to the
extent that 20&nbsp;percent of a corporation&#146;s alternative
minimum taxable income exceeds the corporation&#146;s regular
Federal income tax. For purposes of computing taxable income for
AMT purposes, certain tax deductions and other beneficial
allowances are modified or eliminated. In particular, even
though a corporation might otherwise be able to offset all of
its taxable income for regular income tax purposes by available
NOL carryovers, only 90% of the corporation&#146;s taxable
income for AMT purposes generally may be offset by available NOL
carryovers (as recomputed for AMT purposes). Therefore, in any
year in which we are subject to AMT, we may not fully eliminate
a tax liability by offsetting our alternative minimum taxable
income (&#147;AMTI&#148;) with available AMT NOL carryovers. In
such a case, our AMTI (before reduction by any AMT NOL
carryovers) will be taxed at a 2&nbsp;percent effective federal
tax rate (10&nbsp;percent of the 20&nbsp;percent AMT rate).
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Under the recapitalization plan, we will not be
required to include COD income in our gross income to the extent
of our insolvency. To the extent we have AMTI under the
recapitalization plan, including as a result of any COD income
we recognize in excess of the amount of our insolvency, we may
not use our NOLs to offset more than 90% of such income and thus
may have AMTI liability. Because COD income is excluded from
AMTI in cases where a debtor corporation is in bankruptcy, we do
not expect to be subject to the AMT as a result of income
realized under the prepackaged plan.

High Yield Discount Obligation</FONT></I></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The new notes may constitute &#147;applicable
high yield discount obligations.&#148; An &#147;applicable high
yield discount obligation&#148; is any debt instrument that
(1)&nbsp;has a maturity date that is more than five years from
the date of issue, (2)&nbsp;has a yield to maturity that equals
or exceeds the applicable federal rate (&#147;AFR&#148;)
released by the IRS for the calendar month in which the
obligation was issued plus five percentage points and
(3)&nbsp;has &#147;significant original issue discount.&#148; A
debt instrument generally has &#147;significant original issue
discount&#148; if, as of the close of any accrual period ending
more than five years after the date of issue, the excess of the
interest (including OID) that has accrued on the obligation over
the interest that is required to be paid thereon exceeds the
product of the issue price of the instrument and its yield to
maturity.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Provided that the new notes are applicable high
yield discount obligations, the OID on the new notes would not
be deductible by us until we pay it in cash. Moreover, if the

percentage points, a ratable portion of our deduction for OID
(the &#147;Disqualified OID&#148;) (based on the portion of the
yield to maturity that exceeds the AFR plus six percentage
points) would be permanently non-deductible to us. For purposes
of the dividends-received deduction under Section&nbsp;243 of
the Code, the Disqualified OID should be treated as a dividend
to corporate note holders to the extent it would have been so
treated had such amount been distributed by us with respect to
our stock. A corporate holder should consult with its tax
advisor regarding the treatment to it of holding an applicable
high yield discount obligation.

stockholders&#146; deficit of $377.0&nbsp;million at
September&nbsp;30, 2003. The Company&#146;s continuation as a
going concern is dependent on its ability to restructure or
otherwise amend the terms of its debt, and if unsuccessful, the
Company may seek bankruptcy court or other protection from its
creditors within the next year. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about the Company&#146;s ability to continue
as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements and

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of AirGate PCS, Inc. and subsidiaries as of
September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders&#146; deficit, and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003. These consolidated financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company&#146;s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We conducted our audits in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of AirGate PCS,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the years in the three-year period ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The accompanying consolidated financial
statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue
as a going concern. As discussed in Note&nbsp;1 to the
consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered
significant recurring losses since inception and has an
accumulated deficit of $1.3&nbsp;billion and a
stockholders&#146; deficit of $377.0&nbsp;million at
September&nbsp;30, 2003. The Company&#146;s continuation as a
going concern is dependent on its ability to restructure or
otherwise amend the terms of its debt; and if unsuccessful, the
Company may seek bankruptcy court or other protection from its
creditors within the next year. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about the Company&#146;s ability to continue
as a going concern. Management&#146;s plans in regard to these
matters are described in Note&nbsp;1. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

<FONT size="2">AirGate PCS, Inc. and its restricted and
unrestricted subsidiaries (the &#147;Company&#148;) were created
for the purpose of providing wireless Personal Communication
Services (&#147;PCS&#148;). AirGate PCS, Inc. and its restricted
subsidiaries (&#147;AirGate&#148;) are a network partner of
Sprint with the right to market and provide Sprint PCS products
and services using the Sprint brand names in a defined territory.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On November&nbsp;30, 2001, AirGate acquired an
unrestricted subsidiary, iPCS, Inc. (together with its
subsidiaries, &#147;iPCS&#148;), a network partner of Sprint
with 37&nbsp;markets in the midwestern United States. Subsequent
to November&nbsp;30, 2001, the results of operations and
accounts of iPCS were consolidated with the Company in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. On
February&nbsp;23, 2003, iPCS filed a Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy
petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Georgia for the purpose of effecting a court
administered reorganization. Subsequent to February&nbsp;23,
2003, the Company no longer consolidated the accounts and
results of operations of iPCS and the accounts of iPCS were
recorded as an investment using the cost method of accounting.
On October&nbsp;17, 2003, AirGate irrevocably transferred all of
its shares of iPCS common stock to a trust organized under
Delaware law (See Note&nbsp;12). The beneficial owners of
AirGate common stock on the date of transfer are the
beneficiaries of the trust. No distributions will be made from
the trust to the beneficiaries unless directed by the iPCS board
of directors and/or an order of the iPCS bankruptcy court.
AirGate has no interest in the trust. As a result, on the date
of the transfer, iPCS will be accounted for as a discontinued
operation and the iPCS investment (approximately
$184&nbsp;million credit balance carrying amount) will be
eliminated and recorded as a non-monetary gain from disposition
of discontinuing operations.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Because iPCS is an unrestricted subsidiary,
AirGate is generally unable to provide capital or other
financial support to iPCS. Further, iPCS lenders, noteholders
and creditors do not have a lien on or encumbrance on assets of
AirGate. Management believes that iPCS&#146;s bankruptcy
proceedings and related outcomes will not have a material
adverse effect on results of operations, financial condition and
the liquidity of AirGate.

<FONT size="2">The PCS market is characterized by significant
risks as a result of rapid changes in technology, intense
competition and the costs associated with the build-out,
on-going operations and growth of a PCS network. The
Company&#146;s operations are dependent upon Sprint&#146;s
ability to perform its obligations under the agreements between
the Company and Sprint (see note&nbsp;4) under which the Company
has agreed to construct and manage its Sprint PCS network (the
&#147;Sprint Agreements&#148;). The Company&#146;s ability to
attract and maintain a subscriber base of sufficient size and
credit quality is critical to achieving sufficient positive cash
flow. Significant changes in technology, increased competition,
or adverse economic conditions could impair the Company&#146;s
ability to achieve sufficient positive cash flow.

<FONT size="2">As shown in the consolidated financial
statements, the Company has generated significant net losses
since inception and has an accumulated deficit of
$1.3&nbsp;billion and stockholders&#146; deficit of
$377.0&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2003. For the year
ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, the Company&#146;s net loss
amounted to $84.8&nbsp;million, $42.2&nbsp;million of which was
attributable to AirGate. As of September&nbsp;30, 2003, AirGate
had working capital of $12.5&nbsp;million and cash and cash
equivalents of $54.1&nbsp;million, and no remaining availability
under its credit facility. As a result, AirGate is completely
dependent on available cash and operating cash flow to pay debt
service and meet its other capital needs. If such sources are
not sufficient, alternative funding sources may not be available.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In addition to its capital needs to fund
operating losses, AirGate has invested large amounts to
build-out its networks and for other capital assets. Since
inception, AirGate has invested $302&nbsp;million to purchase
property and equipment. While much of AirGate&#146;s networks
are now complete, and capital expenditures are expected to be
lower than prior years, such expenditures will continue to be
necessary.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">A number of factors, including slower subscriber
growth, increased competition and our dependence on Sprint and
Sprint&#146;s changes to various programs and fees, have had an
adverse affect on AirGate&#146;s business and have led the
Company to revise its business strategy and take actions to cut
costs. These actions included the following:

<FONT size="2">In November 2003, AirGate entered into an
amendment to the AirGate credit facility. Some of the changes
effected by the amendment clarify certain ambiguities and modify
the definition and period for calculating EBITDA for purposes of
complying with financial covenants under the credit facility.
Management expects these changes to generally assist AirGate in
complying with these financial covenants for the next twelve
months.

<FONT size="2">Under our current business plan, the
Company&#146;s compliance with the financial covenants under the
AirGate credit facility is not assured and the Company&#146;s
ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its financial
covenants and payment obligations in 2005 and beyond is
substantially uncertain. In addition, there is substantial risk
that under its current business plan, the Company would not have
sufficient liquidity to meet its cash interest obligations under
the Old AirGate Notes (defined below) in 2006. As a result, the
Company has currently proposed a financial restructuring (the
&#147;Recapitalization Plan&#148;) which includes, but is not

<FONT size="2">In the event that the conditions for the
consummation of the Recapitalization Plan are not satisfied,
including, for example, the failure to meet the minimum tender
condition, the Company&#146;s board of directors may elect,
assuming that it receives sufficient acceptances from the
holders of the Old AirGate Notes, to seek as an alternative to
the Recapitalization Plan, the confirmation of a prepackaged
plan of reorganization within the next year. It is anticipated
that any prepackaged plan of reorganization would effect the
same transactions contemplated by the Recapitalization Plan. If
a prepackaged plan of reorganization or bankruptcy case of any
kind is commenced with regard to the Company, it would
constitute a default under the AirGate senior credit facility
and the indenture governing the Old AirGate Notes. Such a
default could result in an acceleration of the debt represented
by the senior credit facility and the Old AirGate Notes.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The completion of the financial restructuring
will improve AirGate&#146;s cash flow by significantly reducing
debt service payments in 2005 and beyond. If the financial
restructuring is not effected, through the Recapitalization Plan
or the prepackaged plan, management intends to take actions to
enable the Company to meet its debt service requirements and
other capital needs. Such actions may include seeking additional
amendments to our credit facility to avoid future financial
covenant defaults, seeking additional sources of financing, and
further reducing general and administrative, sales and marketing
and capital spending. There can be no assurance that these
actions will be sufficient to enable the Company to generate
sufficient cash flow to meet its financial covenants and payment
obligations.

<FONT size="2">On November&nbsp;30 2001, the Company completed
the acquisition of iPCS. Significant amounts of goodwill and
other intangible assets were recorded as part of this
acquisition (note&nbsp;10). The original purchase price
allocation of this acquisition was recorded in the quarter ended
December&nbsp;31, 2001. During the quarter ended March&nbsp;31,
2002, the original purchase price allocation was adjusted, which
resulted in a reclassification of amounts between goodwill,
deferred income tax liabilities, intangibles related to the
amount assigned to the right to provide service under the Sprint
Agreements and other assets and liabilities. The Company
recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $261.2&nbsp;million
during the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2002, and
$199.7&nbsp;million during the quarter ended September&nbsp;30,
2002. During the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2002, the
Company recorded an impairment charge for property and equipment
totaling $44.5&nbsp;million and impairment of intangible assets
totaling $312.0&nbsp;million. The purchase of iPCS and the
accounting for the acquisition are described further in
notes&nbsp;10&nbsp;and&nbsp;11.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The wireless telecommunications industry
experienced significant declines in market capitalization
throughout most of 2002. These significant declines in market
capitalization resulted from concerns regarding anticipated
weakness in future subscriber growth, increased subscriber
churn, anticipated future lower average revenue per user
(&#147;ARPU&#148;) and liquidity concerns. As a result of these
industry trends, the Company experienced significant declines in
its market capitalization subsequent to its acquisition of iPCS.
Additionally, there were significant adverse changes to the
business plan for iPCS. These changes included lower new
subscribers, lower ARPU, increased service and pass through
costs from Sprint and lower roaming margins from Sprint.
Wireless industry acquisitions subsequent to the Company&#146;s
acquisition of iPCS have been valued substantially lower on a
price per population and a price per subscriber basis. As a
result of these transactions and industry trends, the Company
believed that the fair value of iPCS and its assets had been
reduced. Accordingly, the Company on two occasions during 2002
performed fair value assessments of iPCS and its assets. In
determining the March&nbsp;31, 2002 fair value assessment, the
Company utilized a combination of a market approach along with a
discounted cash flow approach. As there were no comparable
transactions during the later half of 2002, the Company utilized
a discounted cash flow approach to determine the valuation at
September&nbsp;30, 2002. The Company recorded goodwill
impairments of approximately $261.2&nbsp;million and
$199.7&nbsp;million during the quarters ended March&nbsp;31,
2002 and September&nbsp;30, 2002, respectively, as a result of
these fair value assessments.

<FONT size="2">During the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2002,
the Company recorded an impairment for intangible assets of
$312.0&nbsp;million reflecting an impairment of iPCS&#146; right
to provide service under the Sprint Agreements and the acquired
subscriber base. The right to provide service under iPCS&#146;
Sprint Agreements and its acquired subscriber base were recorded
as a result of the iPCS acquisition. The value and lives
assigned to these intangibles were $323.3&nbsp;million and
205&nbsp;months and $52.4&nbsp;million and 30&nbsp;months,
respectively. As discussed above, the impairment arose from
significant adverse changes to the iPCS business plan. As a
result, the Company adjusted the carrying value of the right
iPCS had to provide service under the Sprint Agreements and the
value of the acquired subscriber base to their fair values at
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

as well as a generally weak secondary market for
telecommunications related equipment.

<FONT size="2">The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered
or products have been delivered, the price to the buyer is fixed
and determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Effective July&nbsp;1, 2003 the Company adopted Emerging Issues
Task Force (&#147;EITF&#148;) No.&nbsp;00-21, &#147;Accounting
for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Element
Deliverables.&#148; The EITF guidance addresses how to account
for arrangements that may involve multiple revenue-generating
activities, i.e., the delivery or performance of multiple
products, services, and/or rights to use assets. In applying
this guidance, separate contracts with the same party, entered
into at or near the same time, will be presumed to be a bundled
transaction, and the consideration will be measured and
allocated to the separate units based on their relative fair
values. The consensus guidance is applicable to agreements
entered into for quarters beginning after June&nbsp;15, 2003.
The adoption of EITF&nbsp;00-21 has resulted in substantially
all of the activation fee revenue generated from Company-owned
retail stores and associated costs being recognized at the time
the related wireless handset is sold and it is classified as
equipment revenue and cost of equipment, respectively. Upon
adoption of EITF&nbsp;00-21, previously deferred revenues and
costs will continue to be amortized over the remaining estimated
life of a subscriber, not to exceed 30&nbsp;months. Revenue and
costs for activations at other retail locations will continue to
be deferred and amortized over their estimated lives as the
Company does not generate revenues from the sale of wireless
handsets to the subscriber. The impact of adoption
EITF&nbsp;00-21 had the affect of increasing equipment revenue
by $0.4&nbsp;million and increasing costs of equipment by
$0.3&nbsp;million, which otherwise would have been deferred and
amortized.

percentage of new subscribers that would never pay a bill and
reserved for the related percentage of monthly revenue through a
reduction in revenues. In 2002, the Company reinstated the
deposit requirement for sub-prime credit customers, and
increased the deposit amount in February 2003. The Company
believes that the re-imposition of and increase in deposit
requirements as well as the continuation of spending limits for
the sub-prime credit customers are sufficient to mitigate the
collection risk. Additionally, the Company has experienced
improvements in the credit quality of its subscriber base.
Accordingly, in March 2003 the Company ceased recording this
reserve. At September&nbsp;30, 2002, there was approximately
$1.3&nbsp;million reserved for 7,126&nbsp;first payment default
subscribers.

<FONT size="2">The Company accounts for long-lived assets and
goodwill in accordance with the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (&#147;SFAS&#148;) No.&nbsp;144,
&#147;Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets&#148; and SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;142, &#147;Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets.&#148; SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;144 requires
that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be
reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may
not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used
is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset
to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated
by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which
the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the
assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell the asset.
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;142 requires annual tests for impairment of
goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives
and interim tests when an event has occurred that more likely
than not has reduced the fair value of such assets. The Company
no longer has any assets recorded subject to SFAS&nbsp;142
impairment testing. As of September&nbsp;30, 2002, the Company
recorded substantial write-offs of long lived assets and
goodwill relating to its iPCS subsidiary (see Notes&nbsp;2 and
11).

<FONT size="2">In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (&#147;FASB&#148;) issued SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;150,
&#147;Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of Liabilities and Equity,&#148; which is
effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning
after June&nbsp;15, 2003. However, certain aspects of
SFAS&nbsp;150 have been deferred. SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;150
establishes standards for the Company&#146;s classification of
liabilities in the financial statements that have
characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The Company will
continue to review SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;150; however, the Company
does not expect SFAS&nbsp;150 to have a material impact on the
Company&#146;s financial position, results of operations, or
cash flows.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In April 2003, the FASB issued
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;149, &#147;Amendment of Statement of 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,&#148; which
amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;133, &#147;Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities.&#148; This statement is
effective for hedging of contracts entered into or modified
after June&nbsp;30, 2003 and for hedging relationships
designated after June&nbsp;30, 2003 and did not have a material
impact on the Company&#146;s results of operations, financial
position, or cash flows.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation
No.&nbsp;46, &#147;Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,
an interpretation of ARB No.&nbsp;51.&#148; This interpretation
addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable
interest entities as defined in the interpretation. This
interpretation applies immediately to variable interests in
variable interest entities created after January&nbsp;31, 2003,
and to variable interests in variable interest entities obtained
after January&nbsp;31, 2003. The Interpretation is generally
effective for interim periods ending after December&nbsp;15,
2003 for all variable interests in variable interest entities
created prior to January&nbsp;31, 2003. The adoption of
Interpretation No.&nbsp;46 is not anticipated to have a material
impact on the Company&#146;s financial position, results of
operations, or cash flows.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In December 2002, the FASB issued
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;148 &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation&nbsp;&#151; Transition and Disclosure&nbsp;&#151;
an amendment of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;123.&#148;
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;148 provides alternative methods of
transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method
of accounting for stock-based employee compensation from the
intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board (&#147;APB&#148;) Opinion
No.&nbsp;25, &#147;Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees.&#148; As allowed by SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;123, the
Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic
value-based method of accounting, and has adopted the disclosure
requirements of SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;123 and 148.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation
No.&nbsp;45, &#147;Guarantor&#146;s Accounting and Disclosure
Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others,&#148; which addresses the disclosure to
be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial
statements about its obligations under guarantees. This
interpretation also requires the recognition of a liability by a
guarantor at the inception of certain guarantees. Interpretation
No.&nbsp;45 requires the guarantor to recognize a liability for
the non-contingent component of the guarantee, which is the
obligation to stand ready to perform in the event that specified
triggering events or conditions occur. The initial measurement
of this liability is the fair value of the guarantee at
inception. The recognition of the liability is required even if
it is not probable that payments will be required under the
guarantee or if the guarantee was issued with a premium payment
or as part of a transaction with multiple elements. The Company
guarantees certain lease commitments of its restricted
subsidiaries. The maximum amount of these guarantees is included
in note&nbsp;13. Also, the handsets sold by the Company are
under a one-year warranty from Sprint. If a customer returns a
handset for warranty, the Company generally provides the
customer with a refurbished handset and sends the warranty
handset to Sprint for repair. Sprint provides a credit to the
Company equal to the retail price of the refurbished handset.
Therefore, the warranty expense for the Company is not deemed
material.

<FONT size="2">In July 2002, the FASB issued
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;146, &#147;Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities.&#148; SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;146
provides new guidance on the recognition of costs associated
with exit or disposal activities. The standard requires
companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal
activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of
commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;146
supercedes previous accounting guidance provided by the EITF
Issue No.&nbsp;94-3 &#147;Liability Recognition for Certain
Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
Restructuring).&#148; EITF Issue No.&nbsp;94-3 required
recognition of costs at the date of commitment to an exit or
disposal plan. SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;146 is to be applied
prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after
December&nbsp;31, 2002. The Company adopted
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;146 on October&nbsp;1, 2002. There was no
material impact on adoption of this statement.

<FONT size="2">In April 2002, the FASB issued
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;145, &#147;Rescission of FASB Statements
No.&nbsp;4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;13,
and Technical Corrections.&#148; Among other things, this
statement rescinds FASB Statement No.&nbsp;4, &#147;Reporting
Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt&#148; which
required all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt to be
aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary
item, net of related income tax effect. As a result, the
criteria in APB Opinion No.&nbsp;30, &#147;Reporting the Results
of Operations&nbsp;&#151; Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,&#148; will now
be used to classify those gains and losses. The adoption of
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;145 by the Company on October&nbsp;1, 2002
did not have a material impact on the Company&#146;s financial
position, results of operations, or cash flows.

<FONT size="2">The Company reclassified approximately
$10.0&nbsp;million of subscriber accounts receivable for the
fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2002 to a receivable from
Sprint. The Company believes at least $10.0&nbsp;million was
payable from Sprint, but Sprint acknowledged that only
$5.8&nbsp;million was owed to AirGate. The Company provided an
allowance to reflect the receivable at its net realizable value
at September&nbsp;30, 2002. The Company collected this amount
subsequent to September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<FONT size="2">Because approximately 95% of our revenue is
collected by Sprint and 64% of cost of service and roaming in
our financial statements are derived from fees and charges by

    AirGate $2.6&nbsp;million of information technology (IT)

<FONT size="2">The payable to Sprint includes disputed amounts
for which Sprint has invoiced AirGate approximately
$8.9&nbsp;million. The invoiced amount does not include
$2.7&nbsp;million for long-distance access revenues claimed but
not invoiced by Sprint, or fees relating to disputed 3G,
software maintenance and information technology after
September&nbsp;30, 2003.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We intend to vigorously contest these charges and
to closely examine all fees and charges imposed by Sprint. In
addition to these disputes, we have other outstanding issues
with Sprint which could result in set-offs to the items
described above or in payments due from Sprint. For example, we
believe Sprint has failed to calculate, pay and report on
collected revenues in accordance with our agreements with
Sprint, which, together with other cash remittance issues, has
resulted in a shortfall in cash payments to AirGate. Sprint has
unilaterally reduced the reciprocal roaming rate charged among
Sprint and its network partners, in a manner which we believe is
a breach of our agreements with Sprint.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">During the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
AirGate recorded $3.6&nbsp;million (not including
$1.3&nbsp;million for monthly service charges as described
below) in credits from Sprint as a reduction of cost of services
and $3.7&nbsp;million as an increase in revenues. We are
reviewing whether additional amounts are due AirGate and we
continue to discuss with Sprint the proper method for
calculating, paying and reporting on collected revenues and
other matters.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Sprint determines monthly service charges at the
beginning of each calendar year. Sprint takes the position that
at the end of each year, it calculates the costs to provide
these services for its network partners and requires a final
settlement against the charges actually paid. If the costs to
provide these services are less than the amounts paid by the
amounts paid by Sprint&#146;s network partners, Sprint issues a
credit for these amounts. If the costs to provide the services
are more that the amounts paid by Sprint&#146;s network
partners, Sprint charges the network partners for these amounts.
During the fiscal year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, Sprint
credited AirGate $1.3&nbsp;million, which was recorded as a
reduction to cost of service.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Sprint Agreements require the Company to
maintain certain minimum network performance standards and to
meet other performance requirements. AirGate was in compliance
in all material respects with these requirements as of
September&nbsp;30, 2003.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On August&nbsp;16, 1999, AirGate entered into a
$153.5&nbsp;million senior credit facility. The AirGate credit
facility provides for (i)&nbsp;a $13.5&nbsp;million senior
secured term loan (the &#147;Tranche&nbsp;I Term Loan&#148;)
which matures on June&nbsp;6, 2007, and (ii)&nbsp;a
$140.0&nbsp;million senior secured term loan (the
&#147;Tranche&nbsp;II Term Loan&#148;) which matures on
September&nbsp;30, 2008. Mandatory quarterly payments of
principal are required beginning December&nbsp;31, 2002 for the
Tranche&nbsp;I Term Loan and March&nbsp;31, 2004 for the
Tranche&nbsp;II Term Loan payments initially in the amount of
3.75% of the loan balance then outstanding and increasing
thereafter. A commitment fee of 1.50% on unused borrowings under
the AirGate credit facility is payable quarterly and included in
interest expense. For the years ended September&nbsp;30, 2003,
2002 and 2001, commitment fees totaled $0.1&nbsp;million,
$0.6&nbsp;million and $1.5&nbsp;million, respectively. No
amounts remain available for borrowing under the AirGate credit
facility as of September&nbsp;30, 2003. The AirGate credit
facility is secured by all the assets of AirGate and its
restricted subsidiaries. In connection with this financing,
AirGate issued Lucent Technologies, in its capacity as
administrative agent and manager, warrants to purchase
139,035&nbsp;shares of common stock that were exercisable upon
issuance. Additionally, AirGate incurred origination fees and
expenses of $5.0&nbsp;million, which have been recorded as
financing costs and are amortized to interest expense using the
straight-line method over the life of the agreement. The
interest rate for the AirGate credit facility is determined on a
margin above either the prime lending rate in the United States
or the London Interbank Offer Rate. At September&nbsp;30, 2003
and 2002, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding
borrowings was 5.05% and 5.6%, respectively.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The AirGate credit facility contains ongoing
financial covenants, including reaching covered population
targets, maximum annual spending on capital expenditures,
attaining minimum subscriber revenues, and maintaining certain
leverage and other ratios such as debt to total capitalization,
debt to EBITDA (as defined in credit facility agreement,
&#147;Bank EBITDA&#148;) and Bank EBITDA to fixed charges. The
AirGate credit facility restricts the ability of AirGate and its
restricted subsidiaries to: create liens; incur indebtedness;
make certain payments, including payments of dividends and
distributions in respect of capital stock; consolidate, merge
and sell assets; engage in certain transactions with affiliates;
and fundamentally change its business. As of September&nbsp;30,
2003, AirGate was in compliance in all material respects with
covenants contained in the AirGate credit facility, as amended.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In contemplation of the proposed restructuring,
AirGate entered into an amendment to the AirGate credit facility
on November&nbsp;30, 2003. Certain changes are effective for
periods ended December&nbsp;31, 2003 and are used in determining
compliance with financial covenants for periods ended
December&nbsp;31, 2003 and thereafter. These changes include
(i)&nbsp;changes to the definition of Bank EBITDA to provide
that, among other things, in determining Bank EBITDA, certain
additional items will be added back to our consolidated net
income or loss (to the extent deducted in determining such
income or loss), including any charges incurred in connection
with the restructuring, up to $2.0&nbsp;million per year to
pursue claims against, or dispute claims by, Sprint; up to
$5.0&nbsp;million in start-up costs in connection with any
outsourcing billing and customer care services, and
(ii)&nbsp;calculating the ratio of total debt to Bank EBITDA and
senior secured debt to Bank EBITDA based on the four most recent
fiscal quarters, rather than the last two quarters annualized.
In addition, the amendment provides for a waiver, effective as
of September&nbsp;30, 2003, of the requirement that the Company
deliver an opinion of its independent auditors with respect to
the financial statements for the year ended September&nbsp;30,
2003 that does not contain a going concern or other similar
qualification.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The effectiveness of other changes made by the
amendment is conditioned on, among other things, at least 90% of
the face value of the Old AirGate Notes having been exchanged in
the restructuring. These changes include: (i)&nbsp;deleting the
minimum subscriber covenant, (ii)&nbsp;revising the threshold
requirements for minimum revenues and most of the ratios that we
are required to maintain; (iii)&nbsp;providing AirGate the
ability to incur certain other limited indebtedness and related
lien; make certain limited investments and form subsidiaries
under limited circumstances that are not subject to certain
restrictive covenants contained in the credit facility or
required to guarantee the credit facility and
(iv)&nbsp;permitting AirGate to repurchase, at a discount, the
old notes or the new notes from our cash on hand in an aggregate
amount not to exceed $25&nbsp;million in value of those notes,
provided that we at the same time incur an equal amount of
permitted subordinated indebtedness.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The amendment will not affect any of the other
provisions of the AirGate credit facility, including those which
restrict AirGate&#146;s ability to merge, consolidate or sell
substantially all of its assets. In connection with the
amendment, the Company has agreed to prepay $10.0&nbsp;million
in principal under the credit facility, which will be credited
against principal payments otherwise due in 2004 and 2005 in the
amount of $7.5&nbsp;million and $2.5&nbsp;million, respectively.
The prepayment is required only if the Recapitalization Plan is
completed. The amendment will not otherwise affect
AirGate&#146;s obligation to pay interest, premium, if any, or
principal on the AirGate credit facility, when due.

<FONT size="2">On September&nbsp;30, 1999, the Company received
proceeds of $156.1&nbsp;million from the issuance of the Old
AirGate Notes, which consisted of 300,000&nbsp;units, each unit
consisting of $1,000 principal amount at maturity of
13.5%&nbsp;senior subordinated discount notes due 2009 and one
warrant to purchase 2.148&nbsp;shares of common stock at a price
of $0.01&nbsp;per share (see Note&nbsp;8). The accreted value
outstanding as of September&nbsp;30, 2003 of the AirGate notes
was $253.0&nbsp;million. The Company incurred expenses,
underwriting discounts and commissions of $6.6&nbsp;million
related to the old notes, which have been recorded as financing
costs and are amortized to interest expense using the
straight-line method, over the life of the agreement. The old
notes contain certain covenants relating to limitations on
AirGate&#146;s ability to, among other acts, sell assets, incur
additional indebtedness, and make certain payments. The AirGate
notes restrict the ability of AirGate and its restricted
subsidiaries to: create liens; incur indebtedness; make certain
payments, including payments of dividends and distributions in
respect of capital stock; consolidate, merge and sell assets;
engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and
fundamentally change its business. As of September&nbsp;30,
2003, AirGate was in compliance in all material respects with
all covenants governing the AirGate notes.

<FONT size="2">iPCS has a $130&nbsp;million credit facility
maturing on December&nbsp;31, 2008. iPCS also has 14%&nbsp;notes
due in 2010 of $300&nbsp;million principal amount at maturity.
As of December&nbsp;31, 2002, iPCS was in default under certain
covenants contained in its credit facility and the indenture
governing its notes. In addition, on January&nbsp;30, 2003, iPCS
ceased making interest payments under the iPCS credit facility.
As a result, the senior lenders had the ability to accelerate
iPCS&#146; payment obligations under the iPCS credit facility
and the holders of the iPCS notes had the ability to accelerate
iPCS&#146; payment obligations under iPCS&#146; indenture. On
February&nbsp;23, 2003, iPCS, Inc. and its subsidiaries, iPCS
Wireless, Inc. and iPCS Equipment, Inc., filed a Chapter&nbsp;11
bankruptcy petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Northern District of Georgia for the purpose of effecting a
court-administered reorganization. Immediately prior to
iPCS&#146; bankruptcy filing, the lenders under the iPCS credit
facility accelerated iPCS&#146; payment obligations as a result
of existing defaults under that facility. As a result of this
acceleration, the iPCS credit facility and notes were classified
as current maturities on the consolidated balance sheet at
September&nbsp;30, 2002.

<FONT size="2">On August&nbsp;16, 1999, AirGate issued stock
purchase warrants to Lucent Technologies in consideration of the
AirGate credit facility. The exercise price of the warrants
equals 120% of the price of one share of common stock at the
closing of the initial public offering, or $20.40&nbsp;per
share, and the warrants were exercisable for an aggregate of
128,860&nbsp;shares of AirGate&#146;s common stock. AirGate
allocated $0.7&nbsp;million of the proceeds from the AirGate
credit facility to the fair value of the warrants calculated
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recorded an
original issue discount on the AirGate credit facility, which is
recognized as interest expense over the period from the date of
issuance to the maturity date using the effective interest
method. In September 2000, all of such warrants were exercised.

<FONT size="2">In June 2000, AirGate issued stock purchase
warrants to Lucent Technologies to acquire 10,175&nbsp;shares of
common stock on terms identical to those discussed in the
previous paragraph, all of which were outstanding as of
September&nbsp;30, 2003. These warrants expire on
August&nbsp;15, 2004. The Company recorded a discount on the
AirGate credit facility of $0.3&nbsp;million, which represents
the fair value of the warrants on the date of grant using a
Black-Scholes option pricing model. The discount is recognized
as interest expense over the period from the date of issuance to
maturity using the effective interest method.

the AirGate notes, the Company issued warrants to purchase
2.148&nbsp;shares of common stock for each unit at a price of
$0.01&nbsp;per share. In January 2000, the Company&#146;s
registration statement on Form&nbsp;S-1 relating to warrants to
purchase 644,400&nbsp;shares of common stock issued together, as
units, with AirGate&#146;s $300&nbsp;million of
13.5%&nbsp;senior subordinated discount notes due 2009, was
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company allocated $10.9&nbsp;million of the proceeds from
the units offering to the fair value of the warrants and
recorded an original issue discount on the notes, which is
recognized as interest expense over the period from issuance to
the maturity date using the effective interest method. For the

the discount from the warrants totaling $1.0&nbsp;million,
$0.9&nbsp;million and $0.8&nbsp;million, respectively, was
recorded as interest expense. The warrants became exercisable
beginning upon the effective date of the registration statement
registering such warrants, for an aggregate of
644,400&nbsp;shares of common stock, and expire October&nbsp;1,
2009. As of September&nbsp;30, 2003, warrants representing
18,690&nbsp;shares of common stock were outstanding. These
warrants require liability classification measured at fair
value. The fair value of the warrants at September&nbsp;30, 2003
and 2002 were $0.1&nbsp;million and $0.1&nbsp;million,
respectively.

<FONT size="2">In July 1999, the Board of Directors approved the
1999 Stock Option Plan, a stock option plan whereby
2,000,000&nbsp;shares of common stock were reserved for issuance
to employees. Options granted under the plan vest at various
terms up to a five-year period beginning at the grant date and
expire ten years from the date of grant. During the year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2000, unearned stock compensation of
$2.2&nbsp;million was recorded for option grants made during
that period representing the difference between the exercise
price at the date of grant and the fair value at the date of
grant. Non-cash stock compensation is recognized over the period
in which the related services are rendered.

to employees. Options granted under the plan vest ratably over a
four-year period beginning at the grant date and expire ten
years from the date of grant.

<FONT size="2">On July&nbsp;31, 2001, the Board of Directors
approved the AirGate PCS, Inc. 2001 Non-Employee Director
Compensation Plan. Pursuant to the plan, non-employee directors
receive an annual retainer, which may be comprised of cash,
restricted stock or options to purchase shares of Company common
stock. Each non-employee director that joins the Company&#146;s
board of directors also receives an initial grant of options to
acquire 10,000&nbsp;shares of Company common stock. The options
vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first
day of the plan year following the year of grant. In addition,
each participant receives an annual grant of options to acquire
7,500&nbsp;shares of Company common stock. In lieu of this
annual grant, the recipient may elect to receive three
year&#146;s worth of annual option grants in a single upfront
grant to acquire 22,500&nbsp;shares of Company common stock that
vest in three equal annual installments. All options are granted
at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the
Company&#146;s common stock on the date of grant and expire ten
years after the date of grant.

January&nbsp;31, 2001. The ESPP allows employees to make
voluntary payroll contributions towards the purchase of Company
common stock. At the end of each offering period, participating
employees are able to purchase company common stock at a 15%
discount to the market price of the Company&#146;s common stock
at the beginning or end of the offering period, whichever is
lower. As of December&nbsp;31, 2002, the end of the most recent
offering period, 126,726&nbsp;shares of common stock had been
issued under the ESPP, and 73,274&nbsp;shares remain reserved
for future issuance.

approved the AirGate PCS, Inc. 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan
(the &#147;2002 Plan&#148;), under which 1,500,000&nbsp;shares
of Company common stock were reserved for issuance to select
employees and officers, directors and consultants of the
Company. Options granted under the 2002 Plan vest on such terms
as determined by the Company&#146;s compensation committee
(generally ratably over four years), and expire ten years after
the date of grant. The 2002 Plan was approved by shareholders
and became effective on February&nbsp;26, 2002. Upon approval of
the 2002 Plan by the Company&#146;s shareholders, the right to
grant awards under the 1999 Stock Option Plan and the 2001
Non-Executive Stock Option Plan were terminated, and shares
granted under the 2001 Non-Employee Director Plan are reserved
under the authority of the 2002 Plan.

The Company has recorded the fair value of the shares issued of

<FONT size="2">Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities
that result in future deductible or taxable amounts and for net
operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. In assessing the
realizability of deferred income tax assets, management
considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion
of the deferred income tax assets will be realized. The ultimate
realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the
generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
those temporary differences become deductible. Management has
provided a valuation allowance against all of its deferred
income tax assets because the realization of those deferred tax
assets is not more likely than not.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The valuation allowance for deferred income tax
assets as of September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002 was
$216.4&nbsp;million and $184.2&nbsp;million, respectively. The
net change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003, 2002, and 2001 was an increase of
$32.2&nbsp;million, $184.2&nbsp;million, and $44.7&nbsp;million,
respectively. For the year ended September&nbsp;30, 2003 the net
increase in the valuation allowance included a decrease of
$85.7&nbsp;million related to the deconsolidation of iPCS for
financial reporting purposes, an increase of $88.9&nbsp;million
related to the difference between the Company&#146;s tax basis
in its interest in iPCS and its financial statement carrying
amount, offset by an increase of $29.0&nbsp;million related to
the operations of the Company.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">At September&nbsp;30, 2003 the Company has net
operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of
approximately $500.0&nbsp;million which include approximately
$210.0&nbsp;million in net operating losses of iPCS through the
date of deconsolidation. These net operating losses will expire
in various amounts beginning in the year 2019. Additional tax
net operating losses of iPCS for the post-deconsolidation period
will be included in the Company&#146;s consolidated federal and
state tax returns. Effective October&nbsp;17, 2003, iPCS is no
longer considered a subsidiary for federal income tax purposes
(see Note&nbsp;12)&nbsp;and the carryforward net operating
losses of the Company will be reduced by those net operating
losses originated by iPCS. Additionally, approximately
$19.0&nbsp;million included above as &#147;Investment in
iPCS,&#148; will not be retained by the Company.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The net operating loss carryforwards that the
Company may use to offset taxable income in future years is
limited as a result of an ownership change, as defined under
Internal Revenue Code Section&nbsp;382, which occurred effective
with the Company&#146;s acquisition of iPCS on November&nbsp;30,
2001. The amount of this annual limitation is approximately
$73.7&nbsp;million per year, including the iPCS limitation of
$37.2&nbsp;million.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On November&nbsp;30, 2001, the Company completed
the acquisition of iPCS. In light of the consolidation in the
wireless communications industry in general and among Sprint PCS
network partners in particular, the Company&#146;s Board of
Directors believed that the merger represented a strategic
opportunity to significantly expand the size and scope of the
Company&#146;s operations. The Company&#146;s Board of Directors
believed that, following the merger, the Company would have
greater financial flexibility, operational efficiencies and
growth potential than the Company would have solely on its own.
In connection with the iPCS acquisition, the Company issued
12.4&nbsp;million shares of Company common stock valued at
$57.16&nbsp;per share on November&nbsp;30, 2001, which totaled
$706.6&nbsp;million. The Company reserved an additional
1.1&nbsp;million shares for issuance upon exercise of
outstanding iPCS options and warrants valued at
$47.7&nbsp;million using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. Accordingly, the Company allocated the purchase
price to the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities.
Subsequently, certain former shareholders of iPCS sold
4.0&nbsp;million shares of Company common stock in an
underwritten offering on December&nbsp;18, 2001. The accounts of
iPCS are included in the Company&#146;s consolidated financial
statements as of September&nbsp;30, 2002 and the results of
operations include iPCS subsequent to November&nbsp;30, 2001
through February&nbsp;23, 2003, the date iPCS filed for
Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy protection&nbsp;(see Note&nbsp;12).
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Company considered itself the acquiring
entity for the following reasons: the Company was the issuer of
the equity shares in the merger; Company stockholders,
subsequent to the merger, held 53&nbsp;percent of the combined
entity; senior management of the combined entity subsequent to
the merger was comprised of former senior management of the
Company; Company stockholders, subsequent to the merger, held
the majority voting right to elect the governing body of the
combined company; and the Company prior to the merger was the
larger of the two entities.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The total purchase price and the fair values
assigned to identifiable assets and liabilities as of
November&nbsp;30, 2001 are summarized below (dollars in
thousands).

<FONT size="2">On November&nbsp;30, 2001, AirGate acquired iPCS,
Inc. Subsequent to November&nbsp;30, 2001, the results of
operations and accounts of iPCS were consolidated with the
Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. On February&nbsp;23, 2003, iPCS filed a
Chapter&nbsp;11 bankruptcy case in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the Northern District of Georgia for the purpose of
effecting a court administered reorganization. Subsequent to
February&nbsp;23, 2003, the Company no longer consolidated the
accounts and results of operations of iPCS and the accounts of
iPCS were recorded as an investment using the cost method of
accounting. On October&nbsp;17, 2003, AirGate irrevocably
transferred all of its shares of iPCS common stock to a trust
organized under Delaware law. The beneficial owners of AirGate
common stock on the date of transfer are the beneficiaries of
the trust. No distributions will be made from the trust to the
beneficiaries unless directed by the iPCS board of directors
and/or an order of the iPCS bankruptcy court. AirGate has no
interest in the trust. As a result, on the date of the transfer,
iPCS will be accounted for as a discontinued operation and the
iPCS investment (approximately $184&nbsp;million credit balance
carrying amount) will be eliminated and recorded as a
non-monetary gain from disposition of discontinuing operations.

<FONT size="2">In May 2002, putative class action complaints
were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia against AirGate PCS, Inc., Thomas M.
Dougherty, Barbara L. Blackford, Alan B. Catherall, Credit
Suisse First Boston, Lehman Brothers, UBS Warburg LLC, William
Blair&nbsp;&#38; Company, Thomas Wiesel Partners LLC and TD
Securities. The complaints do not specify an amount or range of
damages that the plaintiffs are seeking. The complaints seek
class certification and allege that the prospectus used in
connection with the secondary offering of Company stock by
certain former iPCS shareholders on December&nbsp;18, 2001
contained materially false and misleading statements and omitted
material information necessary to make the statements in the
prospectus not false and misleading. The alleged omissions
included (i)&nbsp;failure to disclose that in order to complete
an effective integration of iPCS, drastic changes would have to
be made to the Company&#146;s distribution channels,
(ii)&nbsp;failure to disclose that the sales force in the
acquired iPCS markets would require extensive restructuring and
(iii)&nbsp;failure to disclose that the &#147;churn&#148; or
&#147;turnover&#148; rate for subscribers would increase as a
result of an increase in the amount of sub-prime credit quality
subscribers the Company added from its merger with iPCS. On
July&nbsp;15, 2002, certain plaintiffs and their counsel filed a
motion seeking appointment as lead plaintiffs and lead counsel.
Subsequently, the court denied this motion without prejudice and
two of the plaintiffs and their counsel filed a renewed motion
seeking appointment as lead plaintiffs and lead counsel. On
September&nbsp;12, 2003, the court again denied the motion
without prejudice and on December&nbsp;2, 2003, certain
plaintiffs and their counsel filed a modified renewed motion.

<FONT size="2">The Company formed AirGate Service Company, Inc.
(&#147;ServiceCo&#148;) to provide management services to both
AirGate and iPCS. ServiceCo is a wholly-owned restricted
subsidiary of AirGate. ServiceCo expenses were allocated between
AirGate and iPCS based on the percentage of subscribers (the
&#147;ServiceCo Allocation&#148;), which was approximately 60%
for AirGate and 40% for iPCS. Personnel who provided general
management services to AirGate and iPCS were leased to
ServiceCo. Generally, the management personnel included the
corporate staff in the Company&#146;s principal corporate
offices in Atlanta and the accounting staff in Geneseo,
Illinois. Expenses related primarily to one company are
allocated to that company. Expenses that are related to
ServiceCo or both companies, such as rents associated with the
Atlanta and Geneseo offices, consulting costs incurred for
ServiceCo and other expenses related to ServiceCo management
services, were allocated in accordance with the ServiceCo
Allocation.

<FONT size="2">On January&nbsp;27, 2003, iPCS retained a chief
restructuring officer to oversee the restructuring of iPCS and
manage the day-to-day operations of iPCS. To facilitate the
orderly transition of management services to the chief
restructuring officer, AirGate and iPCS executed an amendment to
the Services Agreement that generally would allow individual
services to be terminated by either party upon 30&nbsp;days
prior notice. iPCS began terminating services provided by
ServiceCo in March, 2003. All remaining services were terminated
by iPCS by September&nbsp;30, 2003. For the years ended
September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002, iPCS paid a net total of
$2.9&nbsp;million and $1.7&nbsp;million, respectively for
ServiceCo expenses, which had the effect of reducing AirGate
expenses by that amount.

<FONT size="2">Under date of December&nbsp;5, 2003, we reported
on the consolidated balance sheets of AirGate PCS, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002, and the
related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders&#146; deficit, and cash flows for each of the years
in the three-year period ended September&nbsp;30, 2003. In
connection with our audits of the aforementioned consolidated
financial statements, we also audited the related financial
statement schedule included in the annual report on
Form&nbsp;10-K, as listed in the index under Item&nbsp;15(b).
This financial statement schedule is the responsibility of the
Company&#146;s management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on this financial statement schedule based on our audits.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In our opinion, such financial statement
schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all
material respects, the information set forth therein.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The accompanying consolidated financial
statements and financial statement schedule have been prepared
assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As
discussed in Note&nbsp;1 to the consolidated financial
statements, the Company has suffered significant recurring
losses since inception and has an accumulated deficit of
$1.3&nbsp;billion and a stockholders&#146; deficit of
$377.0&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2003. The
Company&#146;s continuation as a going concern is dependent on
its ability to restructure or otherwise amend the terms of its
debt; and if unsuccessful, the Company may seek bankruptcy court
or other protection from its creditors within the next year.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company&#146;s ability to continue as a going concern.
Management&#146;s plans in regard to these matters are described
in Note&nbsp;1. The consolidated financial statements and
financial statement schedule do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

aggregate principal amount of its outstanding
13&nbsp;1/2%&nbsp;Senior Subordinated Discount Notes due
October&nbsp;1, 2009 (the &#147;Old Notes&#148;) for
(1)&nbsp;newly issued shares of the Company&#146;s common stock,
$0.01&nbsp;par value per share (the &#147;Common Stock&#148;),
and (2)&nbsp;up to $160,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
the Company&#146;s newly issued 9&nbsp;3/8%&nbsp;Senior
Subordinated Secured Notes due 2009 (the &#147;New Notes&#148;).
We understand that, assuming all outstanding Old Notes are
tendered in the Exchange Offer, the shares of Common Stock to be
issued to the noteholders in the Exchange Offer will constitute
56% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding following the
Exchange Offer and related transactions (collectively with the
Exchange Offer, the &#147;Restructuring&#148;) contemplated in
the Company&#146;s Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-4 (the
&#147;Registration Statement&#148;). The terms and conditions of
the Restructuring are more fully set forth in the Registration
Statement.

of the Exchange Offer, from a financial point of view, to the

Company and its subsidiaries since the date of the most recent
financial statements made available to us. We understand that on
February&nbsp;23, 2003 the Company&#146;s wholly-owned

Restructuring in addition to the Exchange Offer will be timely
consummated in accordance with the terms described in the

modification thereto or any deviation therefrom, and without any
waiver by the parties thereto of any conditions to their
respective obligations thereunder.

<FONT size="2">We have relied on the advice of counsel to the
Company and management as to all legal, tax and financial
reporting matters with respect to the Company and the
Restructuring. In rendering our opinion, we have taken into
account the financial and liquidity issues facing the Company if
it does not consummate the Restructuring. In this regard, we
have assumed, based on financial estimates received from Company
management, that if the Restructuring is not consummated, the
Company could cease to be in compliance with its covenants under
its existing Credit Agreement during the fiscal year ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005 and could face significant liquidity
issues at such time.

amount in excess of that contemplated by the Restructuring. In
addition, our opinion addresses only the fairness, from a
financial point of view, to the current holders of Common Stock,
of the Exchange Offer, and we do not express any opinion as to
any other component of the Restructuring. Our opinion also does
not address or take into account any contemplated issuance of
shares or grant of options to Company management in connection
with or following the Restructuring. Our opinion does not
address the Company&#146;s ability to access the capital markets
for future financing requirements, or solvency, in each case at
any time, including currently and following the consummation of
the Restructuring. In addition, we express no opinion as to the
Company&#146;s capital structure or ability to satisfy its
obligations. Our opinion also does not address the
Company&#146;s underlying business decision to enter into the
Restructuring.

<FONT size="2">Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and
subject to the limitations and assumptions below, we are of the
opinion that the Exchange Offer is fair, from a financial point
of view, to the current holders of Common Stock.

<FONT size="2">For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed
that the Company is not involved in any material transaction
other than the Restructuring, other publicly announced
transactions and those activities undertaken in the ordinary
course of conducting its businesses. We express no opinion as to
the price at which the Common Stock or debt securities of the
Company will trade at any time or as to the effect of the
Restructuring on the trading price of the Common Stock. Our
opinion is necessarily based upon market, economic, financial
and other conditions as they exist and can be evaluated as of
the date of this opinion, and any change in such conditions
would require a reevaluation of this opinion.

It is understood that this opinion is for the information of the
Board of Directors in connection with its consideration of the
Exchange Offer and does not constitute a recommendation to the
Company as to whether it should pursue any component of the
Restructuring, including the Exchange Offer, nor does it
constitute a recommendation to any holder of the Common Stock as
to how such holder should vote on any component of the
Restructuring. This opinion may not be published or referred to,
in whole or part, without our prior written permission, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Broadview hereby consents to
delivery of this opinion to the full Board of the Company and

of Officers and Directors</I></FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In accordance with the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware (being chapter 1 of Title 8 of the
Delaware code), the registrant&#146;s Certificate of
Incorporation provides as follows:
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The registrant shall indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is
otherwise involved in, any action, suit or proceeding by reason
of the fact that such person is or was a director or an officer
of the registrant, whether the basis for such action or
proceeding is an alleged action in an official capacity as an
officer or director or in any other capacity while such person
was serving as a director or officer of the registrant The
registrant shall indemnify such person to the fullest extent
allowed by the Delaware law against all expense, liability and
loss (including attorney&#146;s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA
excise tax, or penalties and amounts paid in settlement)
reasonably incurred or suffered by the indemnitee in connection
with such action or suit. The registrant&#146;s Certificate of
Incorporation also empowers the indemnitee to recover unpaid
amounts of a claim for indemnification by bringing suit against
the registrant to recover any unpaid amount of a claim.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The right to indemnification includes the right
of the indemnitee to be paid by the registrant for the expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its
final disposition; provided, however, that, if the Delaware law
requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an indemnitee
in his or her capacity as a director or officer will be made
only upon delivery to the registrant of an undertaking, by or on
behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts advanced if it
shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision, from
which there is no further right to appeal, that such indemnitee
is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The right to indemnification and to the
advancement of expenses provided for by the Certificate of
Incorporation is not exclusive of any other right to which the
indemnitee may have or hereinafter acquire. Moreover, the
registrant may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense,
to protect itself and any director or officer of the registrant
against any liability asserted against him or her in any such
capacity, or arising out of such person&#146;s status as such,
whether or not the registrant would have the power to indemnify
him against such liabilities under the laws of Delaware.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In addition to indemnification provided to the
registrant&#146;s officers and directors in the Certificate of
Incorporation and under the laws of Delaware, the registrant has
entered into indemnification agreements with certain officers
and directors to provide them with further assurances and
protection from liability that they may incur in their
respective positions and duties in connection with any public
offering to any fiduciary obligation owed with respect to the
registrant and its stockholders. The registrant has agreed to
indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted under
Delaware law, each person and affiliated person (generally, any
director, officer, employee, controlling person, agent, or
fiduciary of the indemnified person), provided that the
indemnified person was acting or serving at the
registrant&#146;s request in his capacity as either an officer,
director, employee, controlling person, fiduciary or other agent
or affiliate of the registrant. Under the indemnification
agreements, each person is indemnified against any and all
liabilities (described below) that occur in connection with any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding,
alternative dispute resolution mechanism or hearing, inquiry or
investigation that such indemnitee in good faith believes may
lead to the institution of any such action whether civil,
criminal, administrative or other. As a condition to receiving
indemnification, indemnitees are required to give notice in
writing to the registrant of any claim for which indemnification
may be sought under such agreement.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The agreement provides that an indemnitee may
receive indemnification against any and all (1)&nbsp;expenses
(including attorney&#146;s fees and other costs, expenses and
obligations incurred), judgments, fines and penalties;
(2)&nbsp;amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is
approved by the registrant); (3)&nbsp;any federal, state, local
or foreign taxes imposed on an indemnitee as a result of the
receipt of any payments under the indemnification agreement; and
(4)&nbsp;all interest, assessments and other charges paid or

<H5 align="left" style="page-break-before:always"><A HREF="#toc">Table of Contents</A></H5><P>

<DIV align="left">
<FONT size="2">payable in connection with such expenses. An
indemnified person will be indemnified against expenses to the
extent that he is successful on the merits or otherwise,
including dismissal of an action without prejudice, in defense
of any action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation.
Expenses that the indemnified person have or will incur in
connection with a suit or other proceeding may be received in
advance within 10&nbsp;days of written demand to the registrant.
</FONT>
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Prior to receiving indemnification or being
advanced expenses, a committee, consisting of either members of
the board of directors or any person appointed by the board of
directors, must not have determined the indemnified person would
not be permitted to indemnification under Delaware law and, in
the case of advanced expenses, that the registrant will be
entitled to be reimbursed by the indemnitee. If there is a
change in control (as defined in the indemnification agreement)
that occurs without majority approval of the board of directors,
then the committee will consist of independent legal counsel
selected by the indemnified person and approved by the
registrant to render a written opinion as to whether and to what
extent the indemnitee would be permitted to indemnification
under applicable law. Under the indemnification agreement, an
indemnified person may appeal a determination by the
committee&#146;s determination not to grant indemnification or
advance expenses by commencing a legal proceeding. Failure of
the committee to make an indemnification determination or the
termination of any claim by judgment, order, settlement, plea of
nolo contendere, or conviction does not create a presumption
that either (1)&nbsp;the indemnified person did not meet a
particular standard of conduct or belief or (2)&nbsp;that the
court has determined that indemnification is not available.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Under the indemnification agreement, an
indemnitee is entitled to contribution from the registrant for
losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities as well as
other equitable considerations upon the determination of a court
of competent jurisdiction that indemnification provided for
under the agreement is not available. The amount contributed by
the registrant will be in proportion, as appropriate, to reflect
the relative benefits received by the registrant and the
indemnitee or, if such contribution is not permitted under
Delaware law, then the relative benefit will be considered with
the relative fault of both parties in the action or inaction
which resulted in such liability. In connection with the
registration of AirGate PCS, Inc.&#146;s securities, the
relative benefits received by the registrant and indemnified
person will be deemed to be in the same respective proportions
of the net proceeds from the offering (less expenses) received
by the registrant and the indemnified person. The relative fault
of the registrant and the indemnified person is determined by
reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by the registrant
or the indemnified person and their relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct such statement
or omission.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Contribution paid takes into account the
equitable considerations, if any, instead of a pro rata or per
capital allocation. In connection with the offering of the
registrant securities, an indemnified person will not be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the lesser of
(1)&nbsp;the proportion of the total of such losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities indemnified against equal to the
proportion of the total securities sold under the registration
statement sold by the indemnified person or (2)&nbsp;the
proceeds received by the indemnified person from the sale of
securities under the registration statement. No person found
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation, as defined in the
agreement, shall be entitled to contribution from any person who
was not found guilty of such fraudulent representation.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In the event that the registrant is obligated to
pay the expenses of a claim and upon written notice to the
indemnified person, the registrant is entitled to assume defense
of the claim and select counsel which is approved by the
indemnified person. Upon receipt of the indemnitee&#146;s
approval, the registrant will directly incur the legal expenses
and as a result will have the right to conduct the defense as it
sees fit in its sole discretion, including the right to settle
any claim against any indemnified party, without consent of the
indemnified person.

undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under
the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant&#146;s
annual report pursuant to Section&nbsp;13(a) or
Section&nbsp;15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and,
where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan&#146;s
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration

offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

<FONT size="2">2.&nbsp;Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to
directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment
by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

AirGate PCS, Inc.:

<P><FONT size="2">We consent to the use of our reports dated
December&nbsp;5, 2003, with respect to the consolidated
balance sheets of AirGate PCS, Inc. and subsidiaries as of
September&nbsp;30, 2003 and 2002, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders&#146; deficit, and cash flows for each of the years
in the three-year period ended September&nbsp;30, 2003, and the related financial statement schedule. We consent
to the reference to our firm under the headings &#147;Experts&#148;
and &#147;Material United States Federal Income Tax
Consequences&#148; in the prospectus.
</FONT>

<P><FONT size="2">Our audit report contains an explanatory paragraph
that states that the Company has suffered significant recurring
losses since inception and has an accumulated deficit of
$1.3&nbsp;billion and a stockholders&#146; deficit of
$377.0&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2003. The Company&#146;s
continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to
restructure or otherwise amend the terms of its debt; and if
unsuccessful, the Company may seek bankruptcy court or other
protection from its creditors within the next year. These conditions
raise substantial doubt about the Company&#146;s ability to continue
as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements and
financial statement schedule do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
