1.6 the directors designated pursuant to Section 1.1(e) (ii) and Section 1.9(a)
(ii) shall not be deemed to have been designated by the Cash Equity Investors,
AT&T PCS or the holders of the Voting Preference Stock.
SECTION 1.7 BOARD COMMITTEES. An executive committee of the Board of
----------- ----------------
Directors (or a committee of the Board of Directors having substantially the
same mandate and powers of such a committee) shall be established, which

Series A Preferred Directors, one of the directors selected by the Cash Equity
Investors pursuant to Section 1.1(a), Xx. Xxxxx (so long as he is an officer of

any of his shares of Series E Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock in a voting
trust or other similar arrangement or, except as expressly provided herein,
subject such shares to a voting agreement or other similar arrangements. Each of
AT&T PCS and TWR Cellular covenants and agrees that it will not, directly or
indirectly, enter into a voting or similar agreement with any Transferee of
shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each holder of Voting Preference Stock shall
vote all shares of Voting Preference Stock owned by him in accordance with the

SECTION 1.9 BOARD OF DIRECTORS AFTER VOTING PREFERENCE STOCK. Effective
----------- ------------------------------------------------

the shares Class A Voting Common Stock owned or held of record by him (whether
now owned or hereafter acquired), in person or by proxy, to cause the election
of directors as follows:
(a) (i) two (2) individuals selected by holders of a Majority in
Interest of the Common Stock Beneficially Owned by the Cash Equity Investors, in
their sole discretion and (ii) two (2) additional individuals selected by
holders of a Majority in Interest of the Common Stock held by the Cash Equity
Investors, which two (2) additional individuals shall be acceptable to the
Management Stockholders (in each case so long as each is an officer of the
Company) and AT&T PCS, in the discretion of the Management
-6-
Stockholders, on the one hand, and AT&T PCS, on the other hand;
(b) Two (2) individuals employed by the Company and selected by the
Management Stockholders (in each case so long as the Management Stockholders are

TRANSFER OF SHARES
------------------
SECTION 2.1 General.
-----------
(a) Executive agrees that at all times prior to the IPO Date he shall
not, directly or indirectly, transfer, sell, assign, pledge, tender or otherwise
grant, create or suffer to exist a lien in or upon, give, place in trust, or
otherwise voluntarily or involuntarily (including transfers by testamentary or
intestate succession) dispose of by operation of law, offer or otherwise (any
such action being referred to herein as a "Transfer"), any of the Grant Shares
which have vested (the "Vested Shares"), except after complying first with
Section 2.2 and next with Section 2.3, if applicable.
(b) Executive agrees that at all times on and after the IPO Date he
shall not, directly or indirectly, transfer any of the Vested Shares except
after complying first with Section 2.2 and next with Section 2.3, if applicable,
provided, however, Executive shall not be required to comply with Section 2.2 if
-------- -------
he first complies with the applicable provisions of Section 2.4 in connection
with Transfers of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144, or in any single
transaction or series of related transactions to one or more persons which
results in the Transfer by Executive (together with any other stockholder of the
Company participating in such single transaction or series of related
transactions) of not
-7-
more than ten percent (10%) of the Common Stock on a fully diluted basis
(excluding for such purposes the Series A Preferred Stock).
(c) Prior to the IPO Date, Executive agrees that he will not transfer
any Vested Shares of Preferred Stock held by him except after complying with
Section 2.2; it being understood that on and after the IPO Date, Executive may
transfer his Vested Shares of Preferred Stock free from any restrictions on
transfer of such shares under this Agreement, but subject at all times to the
restrictions imposed by federal and state securities laws.
SECTION 2.2 Right of First Offer.
-----------
(a) If Executive desires to Transfer any or all of his Vested Shares
of Preferred Stock or Common Stock (collectively, the "Offered Shares"), he
shall give written notice (the "Offer Notice") to the Company and to each
Stockholder entitled to become the First Offeree of such Offered Shares, as
determined below. Each Offer Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the
number of shares of each class of Offered Shares, the cash purchase price
requested and all other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer.
The Offer Notice shall constitute an irrevocable offer (a "First Offer") to sell
all (and not less than all) of the Offered Shares to the First Offeree(s) at a
cash price equal to the price contained in such Offer Notice and upon the same
terms as the terms contained in such Offer Notice. The First Offeree shall have
the irrevocable right and option, exercisable as provided below, but not the
obligation, to accept the First Offer as to all (and not less than all) of the
Offered Shares. The "First Offeree" shall be AT&T PCS.
(b) The option provided for herein shall be exercisable by the First
Offeree by giving written notice (a "Purchase Notice"), that the First Offeree
desires to purchase all (and not less than all) of such Offered Shares from the
Seller, to the Stockholders (other than the Seller) and the Company not later
than ten (10) business days (the "First Offer Period") after the date of the
Offer Notice. The purchase of the Offered Shares by the First Offeree shall be
closed at the principal executive offices of the Company on a date specified by
the First Offeree upon at least five (5) business days' notice, that is within
thirty (30) days after the expiration of the First Offer Period; provided,
--------
however, that if such purchase is subject to the consent of the FCC or any
-------
public service or public utilities commission, the purchase of the Offered
Shares shall be closed on the first business day after all such consents shall
have been obtained by Final Order.
(c) If the First Offeree declines (which shall include the failure to
give timely notice of acceptance) to purchase all of the Offered Shares subject
to the First Offer within the First Offer Period, the Seller shall have the
right (for a period of ninety (90) days following the expiration of the First
Offer Period) to consummate the sale of the Offered Shares to any person;
provided, however, that the purchase price of such Offered Shares payable by
-------- -------
such person must be at least equal to the cash purchase price thereof set forth
in the Offer Notice and all other terms and conditions of any such sale shall
not be more beneficial to such third party than those contained in the Offer
Notice. If any Offered Shares are not sold pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 2.2 prior to the expiration of the ninety (90) day period specified in
the immediately preceding sentence, such Offered
-8-
Shares shall become subject once again to the provisions and restrictions
hereof; provided, however, that if such purchase is subject to the consent of
-------- -------
the FCC or any public service or public utilities commission, the purchase of
the Offered Shares shall be closed on the first business day after all such
consents shall have been obtained by Final Order.
(d) The purchase price of any Offered Shares Transferred pursuant to
this Section 2.2 shall be payable in cash by certified bank check or by wire
transfer of immediately available funds.
SECTION 2.3 Rights of Inclusion.
-----------
(a) Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, Transfer, in any
single transaction or series of related transactions to one or more Persons
(each such Person an "Inclusion Event Purchaser") shares of any series or class
of stock issued by the Company (collectively, "Inclusion Stock") in
circumstances in which, after giving effect to such Transfer, whether acting
alone or in concert with any other Stockholder (such parties referred to herein
as "Selling Stockholders") would result in such Selling Stockholder(s)
Transferring twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the outstanding shares of any
such class of Inclusion Stock outstanding on the date of such proposed Transfer
on a fully diluted basis (an "Inclusion Event"), unless the terms and conditions
of such sale to such Inclusion Event Purchaser shall include an offer to AT&T
PCS, the Cash Equity Investors, and the Management Stockholders (each, an
"Inclusion Event Offeree") to Transfer to such Inclusion Event Purchasers up to
that number of shares of any class of Inclusion Stock then beneficially owned
(as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) by each Inclusion Event
Offeree that bears the same proportion to the total number of shares of
Inclusion Stock at that time beneficially owned (without duplication) by each
such Inclusion Event Offeree as the number of shares of Inclusion Stock being
Transferred by the Selling Stockholders (including shares of Inclusion Stock
theretofore Transferred if in any applicable series of related transactions)
bears to the total number of shares of Inclusion Stock at the time beneficially
owned (without duplication) by the Selling Stockholders (including shares of
Inclusion Stock theretofore Transferred if in any applicable series of related
transactions). If the Selling Stockholders receive a bona fide offer from an
Inclusion Event Purchaser to purchase shares of Inclusion Stock in circumstances
in which, after giving effect to such sale would result in an Inclusion Event,
and which offer such Selling Stockholders wish to accept, the Selling
Stockholders shall then cause the Inclusion Event Purchaser's offer to be
reduced to writing (which writing shall include an offer to purchase shares of
Inclusion Stock from each Inclusion Event Offeree according to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Section 2.3) and the Selling Stockholders shall
send written notice of the Inclusion Event Purchaser's offer (the "Inclusion
Notice") to each Inclusion Event Offeree, which Inclusion Notice shall specify
(i) the names of the Selling Stockholders, (ii) the names and addresses of the
proposed acquiring Person, (iii) the amount of shares proposed to be Transferred
and the price, form of consideration and other terms and conditions of such
Transfer (including, if in a series of related transactions, such information
with respect to shares of Inclusion Stock theretofore Transferred), (iv) that
the acquiring Person has been informed of the rights provided for in this
Section 2.3 and has agreed to purchase shares of Inclusion Stock in accordance
with the terms hereof, and (v)
-9-
the date by which each other Selling Stockholder may exercise its respective
rights contained in this Section 2.3, which date shall not be less than thirty
(30) days after the giving of the Inclusion Notice. The Inclusion Notice shall
be accompanied by a true and correct copy of the Inclusion Event Purchaser's
offer. At any time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Inclusion
Notice, each Inclusion Event Offeree may accept the offer included in the
Inclusion Notice for up to such number of shares of Inclusion Stock as is
determined in accordance with this Section 2.3, by furnishing written notice of
such acceptance to each Selling Stockholder, and delivering, to an escrow agent
(which shall be a bank or a law or accounting firm designated by the Inclusion),
on behalf of the Selling Stockholders, the certificate or certificates
representing the shares of Inclusion Stock to be sold pursuant to such offer by
each Inclusion Event Offeree, duly endorsed in blank, together with a limited
power-of-attorney authorizing the escrow agent, on behalf of the Inclusion Event
Offeree, to sell the shares to be sold pursuant to the terms of such Inclusion
Event Purchaser's offer.
In the event that the Inclusion Event Purchaser does not agree to purchase
all of the shares of Inclusion Stock proposed to be sold by the Selling
Stockholders and the Inclusion Event Offerees, then each Selling Stockholder and
Inclusion Event Offeree shall have the right to sell to the Inclusion Event
Purchaser that number of shares of Inclusion Stock as shall be equal to (x) the
number of shares of Inclusion Stock which the Inclusion Event Purchaser has
agreed to purchase times (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
shares of Inclusion Stock beneficially owned (without duplication) by such
Selling Stockholder or Inclusion Event Offeree and the denominator of which is
the aggregate number of shares of Inclusion Stock beneficially owned (without
duplication) by all Selling Stockholders and Inclusion Event Offerees. If any
Inclusion Event Offeree desires to sell less than its proportionate amount of
shares of Inclusion Stock that it is entitled to sell pursuant to this Section
2.3, then the Selling Stockholders and the remaining Inclusion Event Offerees
shall have the right to sell to the Inclusion Event Purchaser an additional
amount of shares of Inclusion Stock as shall be equal to (x) the number of
shares of Inclusion Stock not being sold by any such Inclusion Event Purchasers
times (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of
Inclusion Stock owned such Selling Stockholder or remaining Inclusion Event
Offeree and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of shares of
Inclusion Stock beneficially owned (without duplication) by all Selling
Stockholders and remaining Inclusion Event Offerees. Such process shall be
repeated in series until all of the remaining Inclusion Event Offerees agree to
sell their remaining proportionate number of shares of Inclusion Stock.
(b) The purchase from each Inclusion Event Offeree pursuant to this
Section 2.3 shall be on the same terms and conditions, including the price per
share received by the Selling Stockholders and stated in the Inclusion Notice
provided to each Inclusion Event Offeree.
(c) Simultaneously with the consummation of the sale of the shares of
Inclusion Stock of the Selling Stockholders and each Inclusion Event Offeree to
the Inclusion Event Purchaser pursuant to the Inclusion Event Purchaser's offer,
the Selling Stockholders shall notify each Inclusion Event Offeree and shall
cause the purchaser to
-10-
remit to each Inclusion Event Offeree the total sales price of the shares of
Inclusion Stock held by each Inclusion Event Offeree sold pursuant thereto and
shall furnish such other evidence of the completion and time of completion of
such sale and the terms thereof as may be reasonably requested by each Inclusion
Event Offeree.
(d) If within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Inclusion Notice,
an Inclusion Event Offeree has not accepted the offer contained in the Inclusion
Notice, such Inclusion Event Offeree shall be deemed to have waived any and all
rights with respect to the sale described in the Inclusion Notice (but not with
respect to any subsequent sale, to the extent this Section 2.3 is applicable to
such subsequent sale) and the Selling Stockholders shall have sixty (60) days in
which to sell not more than the number of shares of Inclusion Stock described in
the Inclusion Notice, on terms not more favorable to the Selling Stockholders
than were set forth in the Inclusion Notice; provided, however, that if such
-------- -------
purchase is subject to the consent of the FCC or any public service or public
utilities commission, the purchase of the Offered Shares shall be closed on the
first business day after all such consents shall have been obtained by Final
Order.
SECTION 2.4 RIGHT OF FIRST NEGOTIATION. In the event that Executive
----------- --------------------------
desires to Transfer any shares of Common Stock following the IPO Date in a
Transfer described in Section 2.1(b), he shall give written notice thereof to
AT&T PCS, such notice to specify, among other things, the number of shares that
he desires to sell. For the applicable first negotiation period hereinafter set
forth, AT&T PCS shall have the exclusive right to negotiate with Executive with
respect to the purchase of such shares; it being understood and agreed that such
exclusive right shall not be deemed to be a right of first offer or right of
first refusal for the benefit of AT&T PCS and Executive shall have the right to
reject any offer made by AT&T PCS during such applicable first negotiation
period. Upon the expiration of such applicable first negotiation period,
Executive shall have the right (for the applicable offer period hereinafter set
forth with respect to each applicable first negotiation period), following the
expiration of such applicable first negotiation period, to offer and sell such
shares included in such written notice on such terms and conditions as shall be
acceptable to such Executive in his sole discretion. If any of such shares
included in such written notice are not sold pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 2.4 prior to the expiration of the applicable offer period, such shares
shall become subject once again to the provision and restrictions hereof.
If Executive desires to Transfer shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule
144, the applicable first negotiation period shall be three (3) hours (it being
understood and agreed that Executive shall, in addition to giving written notice
of such proposed Transfer by facsimile, use commercially reasonable efforts to
contact AT&T PCS by telephone) and the applicable offer period upon the
expiration of such first negotiation period shall be five (5) business days, and
in any single transaction or series of related transactions to one or more
persons which will result in the Transfer by Executive (together with any other
Stockholder participating in such single transaction or series of related
transactions) of not more than ten percent (10%) of the Common Stock on a fully
diluted basis (excluding for such purposes the Series A Preferred Stock), the
applicable first negotiation period shall be one (1) business day, so long as
notice of such proposed Transfer is given to AT&T PCS
-11-
prior to 9:00 A.M. on the day prior to the date of such proposed Transfer (it
being understood and agreed that Executive shall, in addition to giving written
notice of such proposed Transfer by facsimile, use commercially reasonable
efforts to contact AT&T PCS by telephone) and the applicable offer period upon
the expiration of such first negotiation period shall be ten (10) business days.
Section 2.5 Additional Conditions to Permitted Transfers.
-----------
(a) Upon any Transfer pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.3,
each Transferee that is not a party hereto shall, prior to such Transfer, agree
in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to
Executive (and shall thereby become a Stockholder for all purposes of this
Agreement). Any Transfer without compliance with such provisions of this
Agreement shall be null and void and such Transferee shall have no rights as a
Stockholder of the Company.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Executive agrees that he will not effect a Transfer of shares of
Company Stock to anyone prohibited by the Company; provided, however, that
-------- -------
nothing contained in this Section 2.5(b) shall be construed to prohibit a
Transfer of Common Stock by Executive after the IPO Date pursuant to an
underwritten registration or in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144.
Section 2.6 Representations And Warranties. A Stockholder purchasing
----------- ------------------------------
shares of Company Stock pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be entitled to receive
representations and warranties from the transferring Stockholder that such
Stockholder has the authority (corporate or otherwise) to sell such shares, is
the sole owner of such shares, and has good and valid title to such shares, free
and clear of any and all Liens (other than pursuant to this Agreement, the
Restated Certificate or any Related Agreement), and that the sale of such shares
does not violate any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound.
Section 2.7 Stop-Transfer.
-----------
(a) The Company agrees not to effect any Transfer of shares of
Company Stock by Executive whose proposed Transfer is subject to Sections 2.2,
2.3 or 2.4 until it has received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that the
rights provided to any other Stockholders pursuant to such Sections, if
applicable to such Transfer, have been complied with and satisfied in all
respects. No Transfer of any shares of Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock shall
be made except in compliance with all applicable securities laws. Any Transfer
made in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void.

(b) Whenever the number of outstanding shares of Equity

things, for the granting of certain restrictions on the sale, transfer, pledge,

this Certificate, each holder hereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of
such Stockholders' Agreement. The Company reserves the rights to refuse to
transfer the shares represented by this Certificate unless and until the
conditions to transfer set forth in such Stockholders' Agreement have been
fulfilled"; and
(b) "The securities represented by this Certificate have been
acquired for investment and have not been registered under the Securities Act of
