In addition to the foregoing, to the extent that the granting of a security interest in any property acquired by any Obligors after the date hereof (including through a Restricted Subsidiary becoming an Obligor hereunder) requires a third party consent which has not been obtained, the Obligors shall use commercially reasonable efforts (and in any event not involving the payment of money in excess of ½ of 1% of the estimated fair market value of the property as determined in good faith by the chief financial officer of the Company) to obtain the third party consents referred to in the preceding sentence as promptly as practicable with respect to such property for the benefit of the Collateral Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligors shall not be required to take any of the actions described above (i) with respect to assets or property (including fixtures, but excluding all other real property) acquired by any Obligor after the date hereof unless such assets or property has a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) in excess of $1,000,000 individually or $2,500,000 in a series of one or more related transactions and (ii) with respect to real property, unless the same is a fee interest in any individual or contiguous parcels of owned real property (other than fixtures) having a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) excess of $2,500,000 individually or in a series of one or more related transactions, provided that this paragraph shall not be applicable to (x) the acquisition of any FCC License by any Obligor or (y) the inclusion by any Obligor of any other assets or property in collateral securing any other First Lien Obligations.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Obligor shall be required to grant control of any Deposit Account or Securities Account to the Collateral Agent.

Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the obligations of the Obligors under Section 13.04 of the Indentures or any comparable provision of any other First Lien Document or Second Lien Document.

		- 12 -

4.02 Other Financing Statements and Liens. Except for Permitted Liens, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (granted with the authorization of the Requisite Secured Parties as specified in the Intercreditor Agreement), no Obligor shall (a) file or suffer to be on file, or authorize or permit to be filed or to be on file, in any jurisdiction, any financing statement or like instrument with respect to the Collateral in which the Collateral Agent is not named as the sole secured party for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or (b) cause or permit any other Person other than the Collateral Agent to have “control” (as defined in Section 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of the Uniform Commercial Code) of any Deposit Account, Electronic Chattel Paper, Investment Property or Letter-of-Credit Right constituting part of the Collateral.

4.03 Preservation of Rights. No Secured Party shall be required to take steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral.

4.04 Special Provisions Relating to Certain Collateral.

(a) Equity Collateral.

(i) The Obligors will cause the Equity Collateral to constitute at all times 100% of the total number of shares of each class of Capital Stock of each Issuer then outstanding owned by them.

(ii) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and prior to the receipt of a notice from the Collateral Agent stating its intention to exercise its rights hereunder with respect to the Equity Collateral, the Obligors shall have the right to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Equity Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents or any other instrument or agreement referred to herein or therein, provided that the Obligors jointly and severally agree that they will not vote the Equity Collateral in any manner that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents or any such other instrument or agreement; and the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to the Obligors or cause to be executed and delivered to the Obligors all such proxies, powers of attorney, dividend and other orders, and all such instruments, without recourse, as the Obligors may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Obligors to exercise the rights and powers which they are entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 4.04(a)(ii).

(iii) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to, and at the cost and expense of, the Obligors, all proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Obligors may from time to time reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Obligors to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which they are entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (ii) above.


		Security Agreement
		- 13 -

(b) Intellectual Property.

(i) For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 4.05 at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Obligor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Obligor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Obligor, wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Indentures that limit the rights of the Obligors to dispose of their property, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Obligors will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of the business of the Obligors. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the request of the respective Obligor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, that such Obligor through the Company shall have certified are appropriate (in its judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to clause (i) immediately above as to any specific Intellectual Property). Further, upon the payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations or earlier expiration of this Agreement or release of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall grant back to the Obligors the license granted pursuant to clause (i) immediately above. The exercise of rights and remedies under Section 4.05 by the Collateral Agent shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Obligors in accordance with the first sentence of this clause (ii).

4.05 Events of Default, Etc. During the period during which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) each Obligor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, assemble the Collateral owned by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to the Collateral Agent and such Obligor, designated in the Collateral Agent’s request;

(b) the Collateral Agent may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral;

(c) the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not


		Security Agreement
		- 14 -

the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, after notice in writing to the Obligors, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and each Obligor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);

(d) the Collateral Agent in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of any Obligor or otherwise, demand, xxx for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; and

(e) the Collateral Agent may, upon ten Business Days’ prior written notice to the Obligors of the time and place, with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Collateral Agent, the holders of the Secured Obligations or any of their respective agents, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Collateral Agent deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the Collateral Agent or any holder of any Secured Obligation or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of the Obligors, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released. In the event of any sale, assignment, or other disposition of any of the Trademarks, the goodwill connected with and symbolized by the Trademarks subject to such disposition shall be included. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned.

The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 4.05, including by virtue of the exercise of the license granted to the Collateral Agent in Section 4.04(b), shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.09.

The Obligors recognize that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Obligors acknowledge that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable


		Security Agreement
		- 15 -

through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the respective issuer thereof to register it for public sale.

4.06 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 4.05 are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Obligors shall remain liable for any deficiency.

4.07 Locations; Names. Without at least 10 days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent, no Obligor shall change its location (as defined in Section 9-307 of the Uniform Commercial Code) or change its name from the name shown as its current legal name on Schedule 1 and shall (i) take such actions in respect thereof as is required under Section 10.01 of the Intercreditor Agreement fully to preserve the perfection and priority of the security of the Secured Parties in the Collateral hereunder and (ii) furnish to the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party Representative, an Opinion of Counsel dated as of the date of such change, either (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel all action has been taken with respect to the recording, registering, filing, re-recording, reregistering and re-filing of all supplemental instruments, agreements, financing statements, continuation statements or other instruments of further assurance as is necessary to maintain and perfect the Lien of the Collateral Documents and reciting with respect to the security interests in the Collateral the details of such action or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such detail are given or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to preserve perfect and protect such Lien in the Collateral.

4.08 Private Sale. None of the Secured Parties shall incur any liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 4.05 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Obligor hereby waives any claims against any Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

4.09 Application of Proceeds. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization (including as a result of an Enforcement Action) pursuant to this Agreement of all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied and distributed as provided in Section 5.01 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

4.10 Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent while no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default the Collateral Agent is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of each Obligor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4 and taking any action and executing any instruments


		Security Agreement
		- 16 -

which the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Collateral Agent shall be entitled under this Section 4 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of any Obligor representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.

4.11 Perfection and Recordation. Each Obligor consents that Uniform Commercial Code financing statements may be filed describing the Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property” of such Obligor (provided that no such description shall be deemed to modify the description of Collateral set forth in Section 2).

4.12 Releases; Termination. The Liens created hereunder shall be released and terminated, and the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments at the expense of the Company as shall be requested by the Company to release the Collateral from the Liens created hereby, in the manner and upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.05 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

LIST OF COMMERCIAL TORT CLAIMS

On July 11, 2003, we filed suit in federal court in Louisiana against Sprint and Sprint PCS, and on September 25, 2003 we filed an amended complaint. The suit alleges violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, and fraud arising out of Sprint’s conduct in its dealings with us. It seeks treble actual damages in unspecified amounts and appointment of a receiver or fiscal agent over property and assets controlled by Sprint. On February 5, 2004, the U.S. District Court denied in all respects Sprint’s previously-filed motion for judgment on the pleadings, stating that it was amenable to allowing us to hire an outside accounting company or other expert to monitor monies received by Sprint, and agreed with our position that certain claims are subject to trial by jury in Louisiana. On March 8, 2004, we filed our Second Amended Complaint against Sprint to include certain additional factual allegations related to our claims, as requested by the Court’s February 5, 2004 Order. On April 8, 2004, Sprint filed its Answer, Defenses, and Counterclaim to our Second Amended Complaint, which included a claim that we owe Sprint approximately $16.3 million related to contractual disputes between the parties. On March 25, 2004, we filed an application to appoint an outside accounting company or other expert to monitor monies paid to Sprint from our customers. Sprint has filed an objection to our application. We anticipate that the Court will rule on our application in the coming weeks. We and Sprint also have submitted to the Court an agreed-upon schedule to complete the discovery process during 2004 and we anticipate that the Court will rule on our application in the coming weeks. We and Sprint also have submitted to the Court an agreed-upon schedule to complete the discovery process during 2004 and we anticipate an early 2005 trial date.

We are from time to time involved in other litigation that we believe ordinarily accompanies the communications business. We do not believe that any of our other pending or threatened litigation will have a material adverse effect on our business or financial situation.
