Page 3 The Study Objectives & Methodology Study Objectives Provide a qualitative and quantitative comparison to identify root cause drivers of results and identify areas of improvement in people, process, and technology. Strive to have an “apples for apples” comparison. Include significant wireless participants and strong performing companies with similar business model. Methodology Thirteen companies provided data. (Wireless – SPCS, Cingular, Nextel, Verizon, SureWest; Non- Wireless: Charter Communications, Comcast Cable, DirecTV, Mazda, Stream International, IBM, Sprint LTD, Merrill Lynch). Data collected at an enterprise level, not by individual contact centers. Data received from all participants is mostly year end as of 12/31/01. Data received from participants has been validated through a series of phone conversations to ensure consistency and accuracy.

Page 4 Core calls offered per subscriber have declined 27% over the past two years while the subscriber base has increased 157%. Core calls offered remains 29% higher than the wireless industry benchmark. Best in Class Benchmark Operational Performance - Offered Calls/Sub and Sub Growth

Page 5 NDASL/Clear Pay Call Volume Impact SPCS A&B credit class customers call less than the industry benchmark. NDASL/CP customers call 3 times as often as other SPCS customers. NDASL/CP was 32% of the 2001 year end sub base, but accounted for 54% of the call volume. Since NDASL/CP is 50%+ of 1Q02 gross adds, we must address their service strategy to reach benchmark.

Page 6 Hold time is the primary opportunity for improvement in Best in Class Benchmark Operational Performance - Core AHT Renewed focus on AHT in 2Q01 yielded a 17% decrease in AHT. Thrive drove to a 7% AHT reduction in 1Q02, compared to 4Q01. April 02 AHT continued to decline to 6:41, compared to 6:56 in 1Q02.

Page 7 April accessibility improved further to 88%, exceeding both the 85% target and the benchmark. April results were driven by scheduling enhancements that better match labor supply with call demand. Best in Class - 91%Benchmark - 86% Operational Performance - Accessibility Accessibility has improved significantly since 2Q01.

Page 8 Core Accessibility And Service Level Improved Accessibility improvements have been in addition to service level improvements, not at the expense of service levels. The April service level of 68% was the highest level since 4Q00.

Page 10 Cost Performance Overview - CPSS CS CPSS has improved 32% since Q100, which is 12% of total CPSS. CPSS change of $1.03 is driven largely by AHT ($0.75) and Calls Offered per Sub ($0.33). Core CPSS Benchmark - $2.48 Best in Class - $1.81 CS CPSS remains 29% above benchmark, after AVF improvements.

Page 11 Cost Performance Overview - Cost Per Minute Cost Per Minute has declined 7% since 1Q00, matching industry benchmark performance. Core Cost Per Minute Benchmark - $0.99 Best in Class - $0.73 The 2002 AVF projects a $0.85 and $0.74 full year and year end cost per minute respectively.

Page 13 Driving to Benchmarks - Calls Offered AVF drives a 6% improvement over full year 2001, despite an increasing percentage of NDASL/CP customers. Benchmark Best in Class A 28% reduction is required to hit the benchmark by 4Q03.

Page 14 Driving to Benchmarks - AHT AVF is forecasting a 6% improvement over 4Q It will require an additional 15% improvement over 1Q02 to meet benchmark. Closing the AHT gap entirely in 2002 could reduce expenses by $59 million. Benchmark Best in Class

Core Cost Per Minute Benchmark - $0.99 Best in Class - $0.73 AVF includes a 13% CPSS improvement over 4Q01. An additional 18% improvement is required to reach benchmark by 4Q03. Calls per sub reductions critical in meeting CPSS goal. Core CPSS Benchmark - $2.48 Best in Class - $1.81
