GLOBAL NOTE REPRESENTING
6.35% NOTES DUE 2005
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of AirTouch, not
limited in aggregate principal amount, all issued or to be issued in one or more
series of varying dates, numbers, interest rates and other provisions, under an
Indenture dated as of July 16, 1996, as amended by the First Supplemental
Indenture dated as of July 16, 1996, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as
of July 16, 1996, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of October 7, 1996,
the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 4, 1998 and the Fifth
Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 3, 1998 (such Indenture as so amended
being herein referred to as the "Indenture"), each being between AirTouch and
the Trustee. This Note is one of a series of Notes designated as its "6.35%
Notes Due 2005" aggregating $200,000,000 in principal amount (herein called the
"Notes").
Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto for a description of the rights, obligations, duties and immunities
thereunder of AirTouch, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes, to all of the
provisions of which Indenture the registered owner of this Note, by acceptance
hereof, assents and agrees. The Indenture contains provisions permitting
AirTouch and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities (which term is defined
in the Indenture as any security or securities of AirTouch, authenticated and
delivered under the Indenture) at the time Outstanding (as defined in the
Indenture) and affected by such supplemental indenture, to execute one or more
supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing
in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any
supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders
of such Securities; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture
shall, without the consent of the holder of each Outstanding Security (including
the Notes) affected thereby: (1) change the fixed maturity or redemption date of
any Note, or reduce the rate of interest on any Note or alter the method of
determining such rate of interest or extend the time of payment of interest, or
reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce any premium payable on the
redemption thereof, or change the coin or currency in which the Notes or the
interest thereon is payable or impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after the maturity thereof (or, in the
case of redemption, on or after the redemption date), (2) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of holders of the Outstanding Securities whose consent is required
for the execution of such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the holders
of which is required for any waiver provided for in the Indenture, (3) change
the time of payment or (4) modify any provisions of the Indenture relating to
the amendment thereof or the creation of a supplemental indenture (except to
increase the rights of the holders). It is also provided in the Indenture that
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any past
Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences except a
continuing default in the payment of the principal of or interest on the Notes
or in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture which cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of the registered owner of each Note so
affected. The Indenture also provides that AirTouch and the Trustee may enter
into one or more supplemental indentures without the consent of or notice to any
holder of Securities: (1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (2) to
permit a successor to assume AirTouch's obligations under the Indenture as
permitted by the Indenture; (3) to eliminate or change any provision of the
Indenture if such does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of
Outstanding Securities; (4) to provide for the issuance and establish the terms
and conditions of Securities of any series; (5) to add to the covenants of
AirTouch further covenants, restrictions or conditions for the protection of the
holders of all or any particular series of Securities and to make the
occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any such
additional covenants, restrictions or conditions an Event of Default permitting
the enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in the Indenture;
(6) to appoint, at the request of the Trustee, a successor Trustee for a
particular series of Securities to act as such pursuant to the provisions of the
Indenture; or (7) to add or change any of the provisions of the Indenture to
such extent as shall be necessary to facilitate the issuance of Securities in
(i) global form or (ii) bearer form, registerable or not registerable as to
principal or principal and interest, and with or without coupons.
The Notes will be redeemable in whole or from time to time in part, at the
option of AirTouch at any time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of
(a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (b) the sum of
the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest
hereon (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to
the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points;
plus for each of (a) and (b) above, accrued interest on the principal amount
being redeemed to the date of redemption. As provided in the Indenture, notice
of redemption shall be given to the registered owners of Notes to be redeemed by
mailing a notice of such redemption at least 30 but not more than 60 days before
the date fixed for redemption, to their addresses as they appear on the register
books. If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed at the option of the
Company, the Trustee shall select, in such manner as it shall deem fair and
appropriate, the Notes of such series to be redeemed in whole or in part.
If an Event of Default (as that term is defined in the Indenture) shall occur,
the principal of all Notes and the interest accrued thereon may be declared due
and payable upon the conditions, in the manner and with the effect provided in
the Indenture. The Indenture provides that in certain events such declaration
and its consequences may be waived by the holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding.
The Notes are issuable in registered form in denominations of $1,000 and any
integral multiple thereof. Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate amount of
Notes of other authorized denominations as provided in the Indenture. This Note
is transferable at the office of the Trustee in New York, New York by the
registered owner hereof in person, or by such registered owner's attorney duly
authorized in writing, on the books of AirTouch at said office, but only in the
manner, subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges provided in
the Indenture, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Note. Upon such
transfer a new fully registered Note or Notes of authorized denomination or
denominations, for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the
transferee in exchange herefor.

agent may treat the registered owner hereof as the absolute owner of this Note
(whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of
ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone other than AirTouch or the
Trustee) for the purpose of receiving payment hereof or on account hereof and
for all other purposes, and none of AirTouch, the Trustee or any such agent
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
THIS NOTE AND THE OBLIGATIONS OF AIRTOUCH IN RESPECT HEREOF ARE GOVERNED BY AND
SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on
this Note or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or
based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto,
against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past,
present or future of AirTouch or of any successor thereof, whether by virtue of
any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any
assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance
