assigned to you, and to use your
best efforts to perform faithfully
and efficiently in such
responsibilities.
For purposes of this Option Agreement,

authority that is the result of your
ceasing to be an employee of an
entity that is at least 55%

outstanding shares of common stock
of AT&T Wireless or a successor
company and the combined voting
power of the then outstanding voting
securities of AT&T Wireless or a
successor company entitled to vote
generally in the election of
directors) or your becoming an
employee of a subsidiary of AT&T
Wireless or a successor company or
(b) an adverse change in your
reporting relationship with respect
to the Chairman, Chief Executive
Officer or President of AT&T
Wireless or a successor company;
provided, however, that there will
not be a demotion for purposes of
this paragraph based on isolated or
inadvertent action which is remedied
by AT&T Wireless or a successor
company promptly after receipt of
notice thereof from you.

"Required Compensation" means:

and target annual incentive bonus
percentage in effect immediately
prior to the Change in Control and

EXERCISE PROCESS The Option or any portion thereof (which
number will be at least 50 or the number
of Shares that may then be exercised under
the Option, whichever is less) may be
exercised only upon payment of the
exercise price thereof in full, and in
accordance with procedures established by
the AT&T Wireless Board or the Committee.
Payment must be made in any combination of
(a) cash; (b) Shares of AT&T Wireless
common stock having a Fair Market Value,
as determined in accordance with
procedures established by the Committee,
on the date of exercise equal to the
aggregate exercise price of the Shares as
to which the Option is being exercised;
provided, however, that, unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, any Shares
surrendered as payment must have been
owned by you at least six months prior to
the date of exercise; or (c) to the extent
permitted by law, by a broker-assisted
cashless exercise. Exercise of the Option
will take effect on the date the notice of
exercise, in good order, and payment of
the exercise price and applicable tax
withholdings are actually received in
accordance with the procedures established
by the AT&T Wireless Board or the
Committee.
DELIVERY OF SHARES Within a reasonable period after the
Option is exercised, AT&T Wireless will
deliver to you or your legal
representative a statement reflecting
ownership of Shares in the form of book
entry or certificates for the number of
Shares with respect to which you exercised
the Option. Neither you nor your legal
representative will be, or have any of the
rights and privileges of, a stockholder of
AT&T Wireless in respect of any Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the
Option, in whole or in part, unless and
until book entry has been made or
certificates have been issued for such
Shares.
TRANSFERABILITY The Option is not transferable by you
otherwise than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution, and during your
lifetime the Option may be exercised only
by you or your guardian or legal
representative.
BENEFICIARY You may, in accordance with procedures
established by the Committee, designate
one or more beneficiaries to receive all
or part of the Option in case of your
death, and you may change or revoke such
designation at any time. In the event of
your death, any portion of the Option that
is subject to such a designation (to the
extent such designation is valid and
enforceable under applicable law) will be
distributed to such beneficiary or
beneficiaries in accordance with this
Option Agreement. Any other portion of the
Option will be distributable to your
estate. If there is any question as to the
legal right of any beneficiary to receive
a distribution hereunder, the Shares in
question may be purchased by and
distributed to your estate, in which event
neither AT&T Wireless nor any Affiliate
will have any further liability to anyone
with respect to such Shares.
EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS Neither the Plan nor this Option Agreement
will be construed as giving you the right
to be retained in the employ or service of
AT&T Wireless or any Affiliate.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER CORPORATE PROVISIONS If AT&T Wireless determines, on advice of
counsel, that the listing, registration or
qualification of the Shares upon any
securities exchange or under any state or
federal law, or the consent or approval of
any governmental or regulatory agency or
authority, is necessary or desirable as a
condition of or in connection with the
exercise of the Option, no portion of the
Option may be exercised until or unless
such listing, registration, qualification,
consent or approval has been effected or
obtained.
Any determination or decisions made or
actions taken arising out of or in
connection with the interpretation and
administration of this Option Agreement
and the Plan by the AT&T Wireless Board or
the Committee will be final and
conclusive.
This Option Agreement may be amended by
the AT&T Wireless Board or the Committee
provided that no such amendment may impair
your rights hereunder without your
consent.
AT&T Wireless may withhold or require you
to pay any applicable withholding or other
employment taxes due upon the exercise of
the Option. Upon AT&T Wireless's consent,
you may elect to satisfy such withholding
tax obligations by requesting that AT&T
Wireless withhold Shares otherwise
deliverable upon the exercise of the
Option; provided, however, that the value
of such withheld Shares does not exceed
the employer's minimum required tax
withholding rate.
The validity, construction and effect of
this Option Agreement will be determined
in accordance with the laws of the State
of Washington, without giving effect to
principles of conflict of laws, and
applicable federal law.
