Dear AT&T Shareholder:

     As part of our previously announced plan to restructure AT&T, our board of
directors requests your approval:

     (1) to create a tracking stock that is intended to reflect the financial
         performance and economic value of our Broadband business;

     (2) to create a tracking stock that is intended to reflect the financial
         performance and economic value of our Consumer Services business; and

     (3) to separate and spin off a separate company owning our Business
         Services and Consumer Services businesses. We refer to this separate
         company as "AT&T Communications Services, Inc."

     If you approve the proposals, we expect to sell shares of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock in a public offering for cash later this year, subject to
market and other factors. We also expect to distribute some or all of the shares
of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to our common shareholders as a
dividend later this year. Thereafter, we expect to separate AT&T Business
Services Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group into a single entity called
"AT&T Communications Services, Inc." and to distribute shares in this company to
our common shareholders.

     Approval of each of the first two proposals requires a majority of the
combined voting power of the outstanding shares of AT&T common stock and, if
they remain outstanding, shares of Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock.
We are seeking the same vote for the proposed separation and spin-off of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. Our board of directors recommends that you vote
for each proposal.

     FOR A DISCUSSION OF THE MATERIAL RISKS INVOLVED IN CONNECTION WITH THE
VARIOUS PROPOSALS, SEE THE DISCUSSION OF RISK FACTORS THAT BEGINS ON PAGE 16 OF
THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY STATEMENT.

     If you plan to join us at the special meeting of shareholders, you will
need to bring the admission ticket, which is attached to the proxy card (a card
enabling a representative to vote your shares). For your convenience, we have
printed a map of the area and directions to the special meeting on the back of
the proxy card. Whether you own a few or many shares and whether or not you plan
to attend the special meeting, it is important that you vote your shares on the
matters that come before the special meeting. Registered and many broker-managed
shareholders also can vote their shares via the Internet or by using a toll-free
telephone number. We provide instructions for using these convenient services on
the proxy card. Of course, you still may vote your shares by marking your votes
on the proxy card, signing and dating it, and mailing it in the envelope
provided. If you sign and return your proxy card without specifying your
choices, we will vote your shares in favor of each proposal.

     I look forward to seeing you at the special meeting in                on
             , 2001.

                                          Sincerely,

                                          /s/ MICHAEL ARMSTRONG

                   QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE PROPOSALS

Q: PLEASE BRIEFLY DESCRIBE THE PROPOSED TRACKING STOCK AMENDMENTS.

A: The proposed tracking stock amendments provide for the creation of two new
   classes of AT&T common stock, which we will call "AT&T Broadband Group
   tracking stock" and "AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock." These
   tracking stocks are intended to reflect the financial performance and
   economic value of our Broadband business and of our Consumer Services
   business. We describe AT&T Broadband Group starting on page   and AT&T
   Consumer Services Group starting on page   .

Q: WHAT IS A TRACKING STOCK AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

A: A tracking stock is a separate class or series of a company's common stock
   that is intended to reflect the financial performance and economic value of a
   group of assets or a specific business unit, division, subsidiary or equity
   investment of the company. Holders of our tracking stock are shareholders of
   AT&T and not of the underlying business or subsidiary. The terms of our
   tracking stock are intended to tie the economic value of the tracking stock
   to the performance of the tracked business rather than to the performance of
   AT&T as a whole. However, there may not always be a linkage between the
   market value of the tracking stock and the financial performance and economic
   value of the applicable group. The market value of these securities may be
   adversely affected not only by factors that adversely affect the applicable
   group but also by factors that adversely affect AT&T generally. Holders of
   AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and of AT&T Consumer Services Group
   tracking stock will be shareholders of AT&T and will have no direct interest
   in the assets, subsidiaries or businesses whose performance the tracking
   stock is intended to reflect.

Q: PLEASE BRIEFLY DESCRIBE THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS
   SERVICES, INC.

A: Within about a year after our issuance of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
   and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, and subject to financial and
   market conditions, we plan to spin off AT&T Communications Services, Inc. as
   a separate company by distributing its common stock to the holders of AT&T
   common stock as a dividend. At the same time, we would exchange the shares of
   AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for comparable shares of a new
   tracking stock of the spun-off company. Thus, after the spin-off, AT&T
   Communications Services, Inc. would consist of our current Business Services
   and Consumer Services businesses, but the financial performance and economic
   value of our Consumer Services business would be tracked by a separate
   tracking stock, which we refer to in this proxy as the "new Consumer Services
   Group tracking stock." We expect that AT&T will change its name to "AT&T
   Broadband Corp." and that the spun-off entity will assume the name "AT&T
   Corp." We describe AT&T Communications Services, Inc. starting on page   .

Q: IF I CONTINUE TO HOLD ALL MY SHARES OF AT&T COMMON STOCK, WHAT WILL I RECEIVE
   IN THE RESTRUCTURING PLAN?

A: If you continue to hold your shares of AT&T common stock and we complete the
   restructuring as planned, at the conclusion of the restructuring plan, you
   will have shares of:

     - AT&T Broadband Corp.,

     - AT&T Communications Services, Inc., and

     - a new Consumer Services tracking stock issued by AT&T Communications
       Services, Inc.
   5

   First, you will receive AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock as a
   dividend on your shares of AT&T common stock. Thereafter, if you still hold
   your shares of AT&T common stock and we complete the spin-off of AT&T
   Communications Services, Inc., you will receive shares of AT&T Communications
   Services, Inc. common stock as a dividend on your shares of AT&T common
   stock. At the time of the spin-off, you also will receive new shares issued
   by AT&T Communications Services, Inc., which will be designed to reflect the
   financial performance and economic value of our Consumer Services business,
   in exchange for your shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.
   Your shares of AT&T common stock will remain outstanding, but, after all of
   the contemplated transactions, they will represent only the AT&T Broadband
   Group businesses. As a result, at the end of the restructuring plan you will
   own three stocks.

Q: WHAT ARE THE CONDITIONS TO THE RESTRUCTURING PLAN?

A: While we currently intend to complete our restructuring plan, our board of
   directors may decide not to proceed with all or a portion of this plan due to
   future financial conditions, superior alternatives or other events.
   Additionally, events or circumstances, including litigation, could occur that
   affect the timing or terms of our restructuring plan or our ability to
   complete it.

Q: WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO SHARES OF LIBERTY MEDIA GROUP TRACKING STOCK OR AT&T
   WIRELESS GROUP TRACKING STOCK?

A: Pursuant to our previously announced restructuring plan, we intend to split
   off both Liberty Media Corporation and AT&T Wireless Services, Inc., but we
   expect those transactions to occur prior to the transactions we describe in
   this document. Therefore, we do not expect the transactions we describe in
   this document to affect those separate transactions.

Q: WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW?

A: To vote, just mail your signed proxy card in the enclosed return envelope as
   soon as possible so that your shares may be represented at the special
   meeting. You also may vote by telephone or via the Internet, as we describe
   in this document. Our directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favor
   of each of the proposals we describe in this document.

Q: CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE?

A: Yes. Just deliver a later-dated, signed proxy card to our Vice
   President -- Law and Secretary before the special meeting or attend the
   special meeting in person and vote. You also may change your vote prior to
   the special meeting by telephone, via the Internet or by filing an instrument
   of revocation with the inspectors of election in care of our Vice
   President -- Law and Secretary.

Q: WHOM CAN I CALL WITH QUESTIONS?

A: If you have any questions about any of the proposals, please call us at (800)
          . Information regarding AT&T is also available on the AT&T Investor
   Relations Home Page on the Internet at www.att.com/ir.

Vote Required.................   Each of the charter amendment proposals to
                                 create the new tracking stocks requires the
                                 affirmative vote of a majority of the combined
                                 voting power of all outstanding shares of AT&T
                                 common stock and, if they are still
                                 outstanding, Liberty Media Group tracking
                                 stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and a
                                 class of our preferred stock intended to
                                 reflect the financial performance and economic
                                 value of AT&T Wireless Group, or AT&T Wireless
                                 Group preferred tracking stock. If these
                                 tracking stocks remain outstanding, they will
                                 vote together with AT&T common stock as a
                                 single class. Approval of the proposed
                                 incentive plans requires the affirmative vote
                                 of a majority of the votes cast by all
                                 outstanding shares of AT&T common stock and, if
                                 they remain outstanding, Liberty Media Group
                                 tracking stock, AT&T

                                 Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T Wireless
                                 Group preferred tracking stock.

                                 For the separation and spin-off of AT&T
                                 Communications Services, Inc., we are also
                                 seeking the affirmative vote of a majority of
                                 the combined voting power of all outstanding
                                 shares of AT&T common stock and, if they remain
                                 outstanding, Liberty Media Group tracking
                                 stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and
                                 AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock.

                                 Shares of AT&T common stock entitle the holder
                                 to one vote per share. If they remain
                                 outstanding, shares of Class B Liberty Media
                                 Group tracking stock entitle the holder to
                                 0.375 of a vote per share, shares of Class A
                                 Liberty Media Group tracking stock entitle the
                                 holder to 0.0375 of a vote per share, shares of
                                 AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock entitle the
                                 holder to 0.5 of a vote per share and shares of
                                 AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock
                                 entitle the holder to 250 votes per share. As
                                 of              , 2001, directors and executive
                                 officers of AT&T beneficially owned less than
                                              % of the total voting power of the
                                 outstanding AT&T common shares.

                    REASONS FOR THE RESTRUCTURING PROPOSALS

     We believe that the overall restructuring will improve shareholder value by
enhancing the operations and funding of our businesses and by creating separate
investment vehicles. Our businesses should be better able to serve their
customers by having greater freedom, focus and flexibility to respond to
customers and to adopt to marketplace and technology changes. The restructuring
plan also is intended to permit each business to prioritize its capital, to
invest in its own growth and to target a debt and equity profile consistent with
its own needs and comparable companies in its industry.

     We believe the restructuring plan should allow shareholders to view more
clearly the performance of each of our groups and to evaluate each group's
results against those of its competitors. We believe that the restructuring plan
will enable AT&T shareholders and other investors to invest in the securities
that fit their needs and investment profiles without the requirement of
simultaneously investing in other businesses.

     We expect that the planned AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock public
offering will provide funds to AT&T and/or AT&T Broadband Group to reduce
outstanding indebtedness or to fund operations. Our board of directors will
determine the allocation and use of the proceeds from the public offering at the
time of the offering.

     We expect the issuance of each of the new tracking stocks to:

     - assist its respective group by creating an additional publicly traded
       equity security that it can use to raise capital for operating purposes
       and/or for acquisitions and investments,

     - increase market awareness of the performance and value of its respective
       business by creating a separate investment vehicle intended to reflect
       the performance and value of its respective business, and

     - permit the creation of more effective management incentive and retention
       programs, with the ability to direct business-specific options and
       securities to employees of each of our groups.

                                        4

     We believe that the separation of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. from
AT&T Broadband Group in the spin-off will more fully allow the managements of
these businesses to focus on and enhance the operations of each business, as
well as tailor funding and management incentives to each business.

     For additional reasons for, and more detail on the reasons for, the
restructuring proposal, see "Reasons for the Restructuring Proposals" on page

                 RECOMMENDATION OF THE AT&T BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Our board of directors has approved each of the charter amendment
proposals, the incentive plan proposals and the spin-off proposal, and
recommends that you vote FOR each of them.

                    THE BROADBAND CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

The Broadband Charter
Amendment Proposal............   Approval of the Broadband charter amendment
                                 proposal will permit our board of directors to
                                 amend our charter to define AT&T Broadband
                                 Group, and to create a new class of common
                                 stock of AT&T intended to reflect separately
                                 the financial performance and economic value of
                                 AT&T Broadband Group.

AT&T Broadband Group Tracking
  Stock Public Offering.......   If you approve the Broadband charter amendment
                                 proposal, we currently intend to issue, in an
                                 underwritten public offering, shares of AT&T
                                 Broadband Group tracking stock representing a
                                 portion of the financial performance and
                                 economic value of AT&T Broadband Group. We will
                                 determine the amount to be issued based on
                                 capital requirements of AT&T Broadband Group
                                 and AT&T, market conditions at the time of the
                                 public offering and other factors. We will
                                 allocate the proceeds of the public offering
                                 among our groups based on the determination of
                                 our board of directors.

Timing of the AT&T Broadband
  Group Tracking Stock Public
  Offering....................   We expect to complete the public offering of
                                 shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
                                 later this year, subject to market and other
                                 factors. However, our board of directors
                                 reserves the right to change our current plans
                                 with respect to the public offering. In
                                 addition, our board of directors reserves the
                                 right to not create or issue shares of AT&T
                                 Broadband Group tracking stock, even if
                                 shareholders approve the Broadband charter
                                 amendment proposal.

AT&T's Retained Portion of
AT&T Broadband Group..........   AT&T will continue to have full legal ownership
                                 of AT&T Broadband Group following creation of
                                 AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock. However,
                                 we intend that a portion of the financial
                                 performance and economic value of AT&T
                                 Broadband Group will be reflected in AT&T
                                 Broadband Group tracking stock sold in the
                                 public offering, while the


                                        5
   12

                                 remainder of the financial performance and
                                 economic value of AT&T Broadband Group will be
                                 reflected in AT&T common stock. We refer to the
                                 portion that we intend to reflect in AT&T
                                 common stock as AT&T's "retained portion of the
                                 value of AT&T Broadband Group."

Mandatory Redemption of AT&T
  Broadband Group Tracking
  Stock.......................   If we complete the spin-off of AT&T
                                 Communications Services, Inc., as well as the
                                 split-offs of AT&T Wireless Group and Liberty
                                 Media Group, we expect that AT&T Broadband
                                 Group will be the only remaining business of
                                 AT&T, and that AT&T will be renamed "AT&T
                                 Broadband Corp." In that event, AT&T Broadband
                                 Group tracking stock will be intended to
                                 reflect the financial performance and economic
                                 value of the same group of assets and
                                 businesses as AT&T common stock. For this
                                 reason, following the spin-off, we expect to
                                 redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband
                                 Group tracking stock for shares of AT&T common
                                 stock. Under these circumstances, AT&T would
                                 have the right to complete this redemption
                                 without the consent of any holder of AT&T
                                 Broadband Group tracking stock and without the
                                 payment of any premium. Immediately following
                                 the spin-off and the redemption, holders of
                                 AT&T common stock will own stock in two fully
                                 separate companies -- AT&T Broadband Corp. and
                                 AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

                                 In addition, the terms of the AT&T Broadband
                                 Group tracking stock permit us to redeem AT&T
                                 Broadband Group tracking stock, at our
                                 election, for a substantially identical class
                                 of common stock of any company that owns all
                                 material assets and liabilities of AT&T
                                 Broadband Group without the consent of any
                                 shareholder and without payment of any premium.

Risk Factors..................   When evaluating the Broadband charter
                                 amendment, you should be aware of the risk
                                 factors we describe under "Risk Factors
                                 Relating to the Tracking Stock Amendments"
                                 starting on page      and "Risk Factors
                                 Relating to AT&T Broadband Group" starting on
                                 page      .

U.S. Federal Income Tax
  Considerations..............   We expect the Broadband charter amendment and
                                 issuance of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
                                 to be tax free to AT&T.

Listing.......................   We expect to list AT&T Broadband Group tracking
                                 stock on a national securities exchange or
                                 quotation system.

                THE CONSUMER SERVICES CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

The Consumer Services Charter
  Amendment Proposal..........   Approval of the Consumer Services charter
                                 amendment proposal will permit our board of
                                 directors to amend our charter to define AT&T
                                 Consumer Services Group, and to create a new
                                 class of common stock of AT&T intended to
                                 reflect separately the financial performance
                                 and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services
                                 Group.

AT&T Consumer Services Group
  Tracking Stock
  Distribution................   If you approve the Consumer Services charter
                                 amendment proposal, we currently intend to
                                 distribute, as a dividend to holders of AT&T
                                 common stock, some or all shares of AT&T
                                 Consumer Services Group tracking stock
                                 representing the financial performance and
                                 economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group.

Timing and Size of AT&T
  Consumer Services Group
  Tracking Stock
  Distribution................   We expect to complete the distribution of
                                 shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
                                 stock later this year. However, our board of
                                 directors reserves the right to change the
                                 timing of the distribution. In addition, our
                                 board of directors reserves the right to not
                                 create or distribute shares of AT&T Consumer
                                 Services Group tracking stock, or to distribute
                                 less than all of these shares, even if
                                 shareholders approve the Consumer Services
                                 charter amendment proposal.

Mandatory Redemption of AT&T
  Consumer Services Group
  Tracking Stock..............   The terms of AT&T Consumer Services Group
                                 tracking stock permit us to redeem AT&T
                                 Consumer Services Group tracking stock, at our
                                 election, for a substantially identical class
                                 of common stock of any company that owns all
                                 material assets and liabilities of AT&T
                                 Consumer Services Group. If we complete the
                                 spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.,
                                 we expect to redeem all the shares of AT&T
                                 Consumer Services Group tracking stock for a
                                 comparable tracking stock of AT&T
                                 Communications Services, Inc. without the
                                 consent of any shareholder and without the
                                 payment of any premium.

Risk Factors..................   When evaluating the Consumer Services charter
                                 amendment, you should be aware of the risk
                                 factors we describe under "Risk Factors
                                 Relating to the Tracking Stock Amendments"
                                 starting on page      and "Risk Factors
                                 Relating to AT&T Consumer Services Group and
                                 AT&T Business Services Group" starting on page
                                      .

U.S. Federal Income Tax
  Considerations..............   We expect the Consumer Services charter
                                 amendment and the distribution of AT&T Consumer
                                 Services Group tracking stock to holders of
                                 AT&T common stock to be tax free to AT&T and to
                                 the holders of AT&T common stock.

Listing.......................   We expect to list AT&T Consumer Services Group
                                 tracking stock on a national securities
                                 exchange or quotation system.

                          THE INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSALS

General.......................   We are also asking you to vote upon a proposal
                                 to adopt two new incentive plans. These new
                                 incentive plans would enable us to grant
                                 incentive awards based on shares of AT&T
                                 Broadband Group tracking stock and/or shares of
                                 AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to
                                 officers and employees of AT&T and its
                                 subsidiaries, including AT&T Broadband Group,
                                 AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T's
                                 Business Services Group.

                             THE SPIN-OFF PROPOSAL

The Spin-off of AT&T
  Communications Services,
  Inc.........................   Within about a year after we issue shares of
                                 AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, we plan to
                                 spin off AT&T Communications Services, Inc.,
                                 which consists of both our Business Services
                                 and Consumer Services businesses. We plan to
                                 effect the spin-off in two parts. First, we
                                 would distribute shares of AT&T Communications
                                 Services, Inc. common stock as a dividend to
                                 holders of AT&T common stock. Second, at the
                                 same time, we would redeem all of the shares of
                                 AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for
                                 shares of the new Consumer Services Group
                                 tracking stock.

                                 While we currently plan to complete this
                                 spin-off, our board of directors reserves the
                                 right to change the timing of the spin-off, or
                                 to not go forward with the spin-off. In
                                 addition, we could decide to propose additional
                                 transactions involving the spun-off company or
                                 the remaining AT&T following the spin-off. If
                                 any of these additional transactions require
                                 separate shareholder approval, we would seek a
                                 new shareholder vote at the time.

AT&T following the Spin-off...   Following the spin-off of AT&T Communications
                                 Services, Inc., we expect the remaining AT&T
                                 would consist only of AT&T Broadband Group.
                                 After the spin-off, we expect that AT&T will
                                 change its name to "AT&T Broadband Corp." and
                                 that the spun-off entity will assume the name
                                 "AT&T Corp." In this document, we may refer to
                                 AT&T following the spin-off as "AT&T Broadband
                                 Corp."

                                 Immediately following the spin-off,
                                 shareholders will own stock in two separate
                                 public companies -- AT&T Broadband Corp. and
                                 AT&T Communications Services, Inc. AT&T
                                 Communications Services, Inc. will have two
                                 classes of stock outstanding -- common stock
                                 and a new Consumer Services Group tracking
                                 stock.

Risk Factors..................   When evaluating the proposed spin-off, you
                                 should be aware of the risk factors we describe
                                 under "Risk Factors Relating

                                 Services, Inc." starting on page   .

U.S. Federal Income Tax
  Considerations..............   AT&T intends to apply for a private letter
                                 ruling from the Internal Revenue Service to the
                                 effect that, for U.S. federal income tax
                                 purposes, the spin-off is tax free to AT&T and
                                 to stockholders to the extent that they receive
                                 either AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
                                 common stock as a distribution with respect to
                                 AT&T common stock or new Consumer Services
                                 Group tracking stock in exchange for AT&T
                                 Consumer Services Group tracking stock. Receipt
                                 of this ruling will be a condition to the
                                 spin-off.

Listing.......................   We expect to list the shares of AT&T
                                 Communications Services common stock and the
                                 new Consumer Services Group tracking stock
                                 following the spin-off on a national securities
                                 exchange or quotation system.

1. On April 27, 2000, AT&T issued 15.6% of AT&T Wireless Group (AWE) tracking
   stock. AT&T Common Stock Group results exclude the portion of AT&T Wireless
   Group that is represented by the tracking stock and exclude Liberty Media
   Group (LMG). In addition, on June 15, 2000, AT&T completed the acquisition of
   MediaOne Group, Inc.

2. In connection with the March 9, 1999, merger with Tele-Communications, Inc.,
   AT&T issued separate tracking stock for LMG. LMG is accounted for as an
   equity investment.

3. No dividends have been declared for AWE or LMG tracking stocks.

4. LMG earnings per share amounts and stock prices have been restated to reflect
   the June 2000 two-for-one stock split.

5. Debt ratio reflects debt as a percent of total capital (debt plus equity,
   excluding LMG). For purposes of this calculation, equity includes convertible
   quarterly trust preferred securities as well as redeemable preferred stock of
   subsidiary.

6. Data provided excludes LMG.

                 CONSOLIDATING CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     In conjunction with the issuance of AT&T Wireless Group and Liberty Media
Group tracking stocks, and the proposed issuance of AT&T Broadband Group and
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stocks, AT&T has separated for financial
reporting purposes in all periods the AT&T Common Stock Group, Liberty Media
Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group, AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Wireless
Group. Below is the consolidating financial information reflecting the
businesses of these individual groups, including the allocation of expenses
between the groups in accordance with our allocation policies, as well as other
related party transactions such as sales of services between groups and interest
income and expense on intercompany borrowings. The AT&T Common Stock Group
presented below excludes its retained portion of the value of AT&T groups. AT&T
does not have a controlling financial interest in Liberty Media Group for
financial accounting purposes; therefore, our ownership in Liberty Media Group
is reflected as an investment accounted for under the equity method and is
reflected as such in the consolidating financial statements below.

     AT&T Wireless Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group
purchase long distance and other network-related services from AT&T at
market-based prices and accordingly such amounts are eliminated. Prior to the
offering of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, the capital structure of AT&T
Wireless Group had been assumed based upon AT&T's historical capital ratio
adjusted for certain items. Intercompany interest rates are intended to be
substantially equivalent to the interest rate that AT&T Wireless Group would be
able to obtain or receive if it were a stand-alone entity. Debt has been
allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group, based on the
future view of AT&T's debt position after taking into account the significant
deleveraging activities of AT&T. This allocation took into account the following
factors: prospective financing requirements, desired standalone credit profile,
working capital and capital expenditure requirements and comparable company
profiles. At or before the time of the spin-off, when AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. is separated from historical AT&T, we plan to seek to transfer
the indebtedness allocated to AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer
Services Group from historical AT&T to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. We may
seek to accomplish this through a variety of measures that may result in
increased costs and additional covenants on AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
The historical interest expense on the allocated debt was calculated based on a
rate intended to be equivalent to the rate AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T
Broadband Group would have received if each was a stand-alone entity. General
corporate overhead related to AT&T's corporate headquarters and common support
divisions has been allocated to the groups based on the ratio of each group's
external costs and expenses to AT&T's consolidated external costs and expenses,
adjusted for any functions that any group performs on its own. The consolidated
income tax provision, related tax payments or refunds, and deferred tax balances
of AT&T have been allocated to the group based principally on the taxable income
and tax credits directly attributable to each group.

     Pursuant to the Inter-Group agreement, AT&T does not allocate general
overhead expenses to Liberty Media Group and only charges Liberty Media Group
for specific services that Liberty Media Group receives from AT&T pursuant to
service agreements or similar arrangements. Additionally, as Liberty Media Group
operates independent of AT&T, there is no cash or debt allocated to them.

             RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE TRACKING STOCK AMENDMENTS

     You should consider the following factors, in addition to the other
information contained elsewhere in this document, in connection with the
tracking stock amendments.

THE MARKET PRICE OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND/OR AT&T CONSUMER
SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK MAY NOT REFLECT THE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND
ECONOMIC VALUE OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP OR AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP AS WE
INTEND AND MAY NOT EFFECTIVELY TRACK THE SEPARATE PERFORMANCE OF AT&T BROADBAND
GROUP AND/OR AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP

     The market price of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock may not in fact reflect the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services
Group as we intend. Holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock will continue to be common shareholders
of AT&T and, as such, will be subject to all risks associated with an investment
in AT&T and all of its businesses, assets and liabilities. The performance of
AT&T as a whole may affect the market price of either or both of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock or the
market price could more independently reflect the performance of the business of
AT&T Broadband Group and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group. Investors may discount
the value of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock because these groups are part of a common enterprise with the
rest of the operations of AT&T rather than stand-alone entities.

THE COMBINED MARKET PRICES OF AT&T COMMON STOCK, AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING
STOCK AND AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK MAY NOT EQUAL OR EXCEED
THE MARKET PRICE OF AT&T COMMON STOCK BEFORE THE OFFERING OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE
TRACKING STOCKS, AND NO MARKET CURRENTLY EXISTS FOR EITHER OF THE PROPOSED
TRACKING STOCKS

     There can be no assurance that investors will assign values to AT&T common
stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock based on the reported financial results and prospects of their
respective groups, or the dividend policies established by our board of
directors with respect to that class of our common shares.

     Because there has been no prior market for AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, we do not know how either
tracking stock will trade or if an active market for either tracking stock will
be maintained. In addition, we cannot predict the market impact of some of the
terms of either tracking stock, such as:

     - redemption for stock of AT&T Broadband Corp. in the event AT&T completes
       the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.,

     - the relative voting rights of AT&T common stock and the two tracking
       stocks,

     - the discretion of AT&T's board of directors to make determinations
       affecting the tracking stocks, and

     - in the case of each tracking stock, the creation and issuance of the
       other tracking stock.

THE COMPLEX NATURE OF THE TERMS OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND AT&T
CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK, OR CONFUSION IN THE MARKETPLACE ABOUT
WHAT A TRACKING STOCK IS, COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET PRICES OF
AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING
STOCK

     Tracking stocks, like AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock, are more complex than traditional common stock
and are not directly or entirely comparable to common stock of companies that

companies. The complex nature of the terms of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, and the potential
difficulties investors may have in understanding these terms, may materially
adversely affect the market price of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock. Examples of these terms include:

     - the discretion of AT&T's board of directors to make determinations
       affecting AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services
       Group tracking stock,

     - AT&T's redemption and/or exchange rights in the event (1) AT&T proposes
       to spin off AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group and/or
       AT&T Business Services Group or (2) AT&T proposes to transfer or dispose
       of substantially all the assets attributed to AT&T Broadband Group or
       AT&T Consumer Services Group,

     - the ability of AT&T to convert shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
       stock into shares of AT&T common stock, or

     - the voting rights of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock and AT&T common stock.

     Confusion in the marketplace about what a tracking stock is and what it is
intended to represent, and/or investors' reluctance to invest in tracking
stocks, could also materially adversely affect the market price of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

HOLDERS OF AT&T COMMON STOCK, AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND AT&T
CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK ALL WILL BE SHAREHOLDERS OF ONE COMPANY
AND, THEREFORE, FINANCIAL IMPACTS ON ONE GROUP COULD AFFECT THE OTHER GROUPS

     Holders of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock all will be common shareholders of AT&T.
As such, they will be subject to various risks associated with an investment in
a single company and all of AT&T's businesses, assets and liabilities. Financial
effects arising from one group that affect AT&T's consolidated results of
operations or financial condition could, if significant, affect the combined
results of operations or financial position of the other groups or the market
price of the class of common shares relating to the other groups. In addition,
if AT&T or any of its subsidiaries were to incur significant indebtedness on
behalf of a group, including indebtedness incurred or assumed in connection with
an acquisition or investment, it could affect the credit rating of AT&T and its
subsidiaries. This, in turn, could increase the borrowing costs of the other
groups and AT&T as a whole. Net losses of any group and dividends or
distributions on shares of any class of common or preferred stock will reduce
the funds of AT&T legally available for payment of future dividends on each of
AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock. For these reasons, you should read AT&T's
consolidated financial information together with the financial information of
AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group.

HOLDERS OF EACH OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND AT&T CONSUMER
SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK WILL HAVE LIMITED SEPARATE SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS, AND
WILL HAVE NO ADDITIONAL RIGHTS SPECIFIC TO THEIR GROUP, INCLUDING DIRECT VOTING
RIGHTS

     Holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock will not have any direct voting rights in their respective
group, except to the extent required under AT&T's charter or by New York law. We
will not hold separate meetings for holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock. When a vote is taken on
any matter as to which all of our common shares are voting together as one
class,

                                        17
   24

any class or series of our common shares that is entitled to more than the
number of votes required to approve the matter being voted upon will be in a
position to control the outcome of the vote on that matter.

     Currently:

     - each share of AT&T common stock has one vote,

     - each share of Class B Liberty Media Group tracking stock has 0.375 of a
       vote,

     - each share of Class A Liberty Media Group tracking stock has 0.0375 of a
       vote,

     - each share of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock has 0.5 of a vote, and

     - each share of AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock has 250 votes.

     Each share of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock will have
of a vote per share and each share of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock will have                of a vote per share. The voting power of each
class will be subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and
combinations, including any distribution of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to holders of AT&T common stock.

HOLDERS OF EACH OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND AT&T CONSUMER
SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK MAY HAVE POTENTIALLY DIVERGING INTERESTS FROM
HOLDERS OF OTHER CLASSES OF AT&T CAPITAL STOCK

     The existence of separate classes of our common stock could give rise to
occasions when the interests of the holders of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock diverge,
conflict or appear to diverge or conflict. Examples include determinations by
AT&T's board of directors to:

     - set priorities for use of capital and debt capacity,

     - pay or omit the payments of dividends on AT&T common stock, AT&T
       Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
       stock,

     - redeem shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock for shares of AT&T common stock, tracking
       stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. or stock of qualifying
       subsidiaries of AT&T,

     - approve dispositions of assets attributed to any group,

     - allocate the proceeds of issuances of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
       and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to one group or
       another,

     - formulate public policy positions for AT&T,

     - establish material commercial relationships between groups, and

     - make operational and financial decisions with respect to one group that
       could be considered to be detrimental to another group.

     In addition, decisions regarding distribution and other commercial
arrangements between the groups may affect costs, service alternatives and
marketing approaches for each group. When making decisions with regard to
matters that create potential diverging interests, our board of directors will
act in accordance with:

     - the terms of AT&T's charter and the AT&T Groups policy statement
       described under "Relationship among AT&T Groups," and

     - its fiduciary duties, which require our board of directors to consider
       the impact of these decisions on all shareholders of AT&T.

     Our board of directors also could, from time to time, refer to the AT&T
Groups capital stock committee for our various group matters involving any
conflict, and have the AT&T Groups capital stock committee report to our board
of directors on those matters or decide those matters to the extent permitted by
our by-laws and applicable law.

                                        18
   25

A DECISION BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO DISPOSE OF ASSETS ATTRIBUTED TO AT&T
BROADBAND GROUP OR AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE
IMPACT ON THE TRADING PRICE OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK OR AT&T
CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK

     Assuming AT&T Broadband Group's assets or AT&T Consumer Services Group's
assets represent less than substantially all of the properties and assets of
AT&T as a whole, our board of directors could, in its sole discretion and
without shareholder approval, approve sales and other dispositions of any amount
of the properties and assets of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services
Group because the New York Business Corporation Law, or NYBCL, requires
shareholder approval only for a sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of all of AT&T.

     However, in the event of a disposition of all or substantially all of the
properties and assets attributed to either AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer
Services Group, generally defined as 80% or more of the fair value of that
group, AT&T will be required under its charter to:

     - convert each outstanding share of the affected tracking stock into shares
       of AT&T common stock at a   % premium, or

     - distribute cash and/or securities, other than AT&T common stock, or other
       property equal to the fair value of the net proceeds from that
       disposition allocable to the affected tracking stock, either by special
       dividend or by redemption of all or part of the outstanding shares of
       that tracking stock, or

     - take a combination of the actions described in the preceding bullet
       points whereby AT&T would convert some shares of the affected tracking
       stock into AT&T common stock at a   % premium and pay a dividend on the
       remaining shares of the affected tracking stock or redeem all or part of
       the remaining shares of the affected tracking stock for cash and/or
       property equal to the fair value of a portion of the net proceeds of the
       disposition allocable to the affected tracking stock.

     Our board of directors is not required to select the option that would
result in the distribution with the highest value to the holders of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.
See "-- The fiduciary duties of AT&T's board of directors to more than one class
of common stock are not clear under New York law" for a discussion of our board
of directors' fiduciary duties to the holders of the different classes of our
common shares.

     In addition, under New York law, our board of directors could decline to
dispose of AT&T Broadband Group assets or AT&T Consumer Services Group assets
even if a majority of the holders of the respective tracking stocks request such
a disposition.

AT&T MAY TAKE POSITIONS ON PUBLIC POLICY OR REGULATORY MATTERS THAT BENEFIT ONE
GROUP MORE THAN ANOTHER

     Because of the nature of the different businesses of AT&T Broadband Group,
AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group, the various
groups may have diverging interests as to the position AT&T should take with
respect to various regulatory issues. For example, Federal Communications
Commission, or FCC, regulations that may advance the interests of one group may
not advance or be adverse to the interests of the other groups. Under the AT&T
Groups policy statement, we will resolve material matters involving potentially
divergent interests in a manner that our board of directors, or the AT&T Groups
capital stock committee, determines to be in the best interests of AT&T and all
of our common shareholders after giving fair consideration to the potentially
divergent interests and all other relevant interests of the holders of the
separate classes of our common shares. Nevertheless, AT&T's board of directors
could take positions on any given issue that may benefit one group more than
another or that may be adverse to another group.

                                        19
   26

AT&T MAY MAKE OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL DECISIONS THAT BENEFIT ONE GROUP MORE
THAN ANOTHER

     Our board of directors could, in its sole discretion, from time to time,
but subject to its fiduciary duties and the AT&T Groups policy statement, make
operational and financial decisions or implement policies that affect
disproportionately the businesses of a group. These decisions could include:

     - allocation of financing opportunities in the public markets or the
       refinancing of existing indebtedness,

     - allocation of business opportunities, resources and personnel, and

     - transfers of services, including sales agency, resale and other
       arrangements, funds or assets between groups and other inter-group
       transactions

that, in each case, may be suitable for one or more groups. Any of these
decisions may benefit one group more than the other groups. For example, the
decision to obtain funds for one group may materially adversely affect the
ability of the other groups to obtain funds sufficient to implement their
respective growth strategies or may increase the cost of those funds.

     In addition, AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group are
subject to AT&T's existing agreements or arrangements with third parties. These
agreements or arrangements currently may benefit those groups, as in the case of
purchasing arrangements, or may have the effect of limiting or impairing their
respective business opportunities. For example, AT&T and British
Telecommunications plc, or BT, have entered into a joint venture agreement for
the provision of global communications services. As part of that joint venture
agreement, among other things, AT&T has agreed to various restrictions on its
businesses and activities, including non-competition provisions and exclusive
purchasing requirements, all of which apply to AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T
Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group while they are part of
AT&T.

     Any decisions by our board of directors to renew, extend, modify or
terminate its current agreements or arrangements, or enter into similar
agreements or arrangements in the future, may benefit one group more than
another group or limit or impair the ability of a group to pursue business
opportunities. Furthermore, overlap between the businesses of the groups may
increase as a result of regulatory changes, technological advancements or other
factors that will make those operational and financial decisions more difficult.

     All of these decisions will be made by our board of directors in its good
faith business judgment and in accordance with procedures and policies adopted
by our board of directors from time to time, including the AT&T Groups policy
statement described under "Relationship among AT&T Groups -- The AT&T Groups
Policy Statement."

AT&T'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONTROL INTER-GROUP
TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN AT&T GROUPS

     AT&T's board of directors may decide to transfer funds or other assets
between groups. Transfers of assets among AT&T Business Services Group, AT&T
Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group that AT&T's board of directors
designate as an equity contribution or repayment will result in a change in the
retained portion of the value of that group.

     AT&T's board of directors will have the ability to control commercial
arrangements between groups, subject to the AT&T Groups policy statement, and
such commercial arrangements may be less favorable to a group than could
otherwise be obtained from an unaffiliated third party.

     Under the AT&T Groups policy statement, the groups may make loans to each
other at interest rates and on terms and conditions substantially equivalent to
the interest rates and terms and conditions that the groups would be able to
obtain from third parties without the benefit of support or

                                        20
   27

guarantee by AT&T. In the case of AT&T Broadband Group, the financial statements
included elsewhere in this document reflect a cost of borrowing slightly in
excess of the cost historically achieved at the consolidated AT&T level. In the
case of each of AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group,
the financial statements included elsewhere in this document make no distinction
between the inter-group rate and the cost at which consolidated AT&T was
historically able to raise funds in the external market. In each case, AT&T
believes that the inter-group rate is a reasonable estimate of the rate of
borrowing in the external market. However, in the future, although AT&T Consumer
Services Group is expected to be part of the same legal entity as AT&T Business
Services Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group may be charged interest at a rate
higher or lower than that of AT&T Business Services Group. The actual rates of
interest charged or paid by any of the groups in the future is uncertain and
will depend on a variety of factors including the credit profile of the group
and market conditions. As a result, future interest rates charged or paid by any
of the groups may materially exceed those reflected in the financial statements
included elsewhere in this document.

     Any change in AT&T's retained portion of the value of AT&T Broadband Group
or, if applicable, AT&T Consumer Services Group would be determined by reference
to the then-current market value of the affected tracking stock as determined by
our board of directors. Such an increase or decrease, however, could occur at a
time when those shares are considered undervalued or overvalued.

AT&T'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS MAY CHANGE THE AT&T GROUPS POLICY STATEMENT OR BY-LAW
AMENDMENT RELATED TO THE GROUPS WITHOUT SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL

     In connection with the issuance of the tracking stocks, our board of
directors intends to adopt the AT&T Groups policy statement that we describe in
this document to govern the relationship among AT&T groups and to amend our
by-laws to create the AT&T Groups capital stock committee that will oversee the
interaction between the groups. Our board of directors may modify, suspend or
rescind the policies set forth in the AT&T Groups policy statement or make
additions or exceptions to them, in the sole discretion of our board of
directors, without approval of our shareholders, although there is no present
intention to do so. Our board of directors also may adopt additional policies,
depending upon the circumstances. The by-law amendment similarly may be
modified, suspended or rescinded. Our board of directors would make any
determination to modify, suspend or rescind the AT&T Groups policy statement or
by-law amendment, or to make exceptions to them or adopt additional policies or
by-laws, including any decision that would have disparate impacts upon holders
of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock, as applicable, in a manner consistent with its
fiduciary duties to AT&T and all of our common shareholders after giving fair
consideration to the potentially divergent interests and all other relevant
interests of the holders of the separate classes of our common shares. See
"-- The fiduciary duties of AT&T's board of directors to more than one class of
common stock are not clear under New York law" for more information regarding
our board of directors' fiduciary duties to our shareholders. See "Relationship
among AT&T Groups" for a description of the AT&T Groups policy statement and
by-law amendment.

IT WILL BE DIFFICULT FOR A THIRD PARTY TO ACQUIRE AT&T BROADBAND GROUP OR AT&T
CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP WITHOUT AT&T'S CONSENT

     If either AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group were an
independent entity, any person interested in acquiring either entity without
negotiation with our management could seek control of the outstanding stock of
that entity by means of a tender offer or proxy contest. Although the tracking
stock amendments will create new classes of our common shares that are intended
to reflect the separate financial performance and economic value of AT&T
Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group, a person interested in
acquiring only AT&T Broadband

                                        21
   28

Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group without negotiation with our management
still would be required to seek control of the voting power represented by all
of the outstanding capital stock of AT&T entitled to vote on that acquisition,
including the classes of common shares related to the other groups. As a result,
this may discourage potential interested bidders from seeking to acquire either
AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group. See "-- Holders of each of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock will have limited separate shareholder rights, and will have no additional
rights specific to their group, including direct voting rights" for more
information on the rights of holders of tracking stocks. This inability of third
parties directly to acquire control of AT&T Broadband Group and/or AT&T Consumer
Services Group may materially adversely affect the market price of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock.

THERE WILL BE NO BOARD OF DIRECTORS OR COMMITTEE THAT OWES ANY SEPARATE
FIDUCIARY DUTIES TO HOLDERS OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK OR AT&T
CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK, APART FROM THOSE OWED TO AT&T
SHAREHOLDERS GENERALLY

     Each of AT&T's board of directors and the AT&T Groups capital stock
committee owes fiduciary duties to AT&T and its shareholders as a whole. AT&T
Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group will not have separate boards
of directors to represent solely the interests of the holders of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.
Consequently, there is no separate board of directors or committee that owes any
separate duties to the holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

THE FIDUCIARY DUTIES OF AT&T'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO MORE THAN ONE CLASS OF
COMMON STOCK ARE NOT CLEAR UNDER NEW YORK LAW

     Although we are not aware of any legal precedent under New York law
involving the fiduciary duties of directors of corporations having two or more
classes of common stock, or separate classes or series of capital stock,
principles of Delaware law established in cases involving differing treatment of
two classes of capital stock or two groups of holders of the same class of
capital stock provide that a board of directors owes an equal duty to all
stockholders regardless of class or series, and does not have separate or
additional duties to either group of stockholders. Under these principles of
Delaware law and the related principle known as the "business judgment rule,"
absent abuse of discretion, a good faith business decision made by a
disinterested and adequately informed board of directors, or a committee of the
board of directors, with respect to any matter having disparate impacts upon
holders of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock would be a defense to any challenge to a
determination made by or on behalf of the holders of any class of our common
shares. Nevertheless, a New York court hearing a case involving this type of a
challenge may decide to apply principles of New York law different from the
principles of Delaware law discussed above, or may develop new principles of
law, in order to decide that case. Any future shareholder litigation over the
meaning or application of the terms of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock or our board's policies may be costly and
time consuming to AT&T, AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group.

CHANGES IN THE TAX LAW OR IN THE INTERPRETATION OF CURRENT TAX LAW MAY RESULT IN
REDEMPTION OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND/OR AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES
GROUP TRACKING STOCK, OR MAY PREVENT US FROM ISSUING FURTHER SHARES OF EITHER
STOCK

     From time to time, there have been legislative and administrative proposals
that, if effective, would have resulted in the imposition of corporate level or
shareholder level tax upon the issuance of tracking stock. As of the date of
this document, no such proposals are outstanding.

                                        22
   29

     If there are adverse tax consequences associated with the issuance of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock, it is possible that we would cease issuing additional shares of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock. This could affect the value of shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock then outstanding.

     Furthermore, we are entitled to convert AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock into AT&T common stock at a
premium of        % if, based on the opinion of tax counsel, adverse U.S.
federal income tax law developments related to AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, respectively, occur after
the issuance of that tracking stock.

     If we did convert AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock into AT&T common stock at a premium, the interests
of holders of AT&T common stock would be diluted as a result of the redemption
premium paid for AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock.

IN SOME INSTANCES, WE MAY OPTIONALLY REDEEM AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK
AND/OR AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK, INCLUDING AS A RESULT OF AN
ADVERSE TAX LAW CHANGE

     Our board of directors may, at any time after either the occurrence of
tax-related events, such as the ones described above, or the
anniversary of the date we initially issue shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, respectively,
redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock, respectively, for shares of AT&T common
stock at a           % premium. We could decide to redeem the tracking stock(s)
at a time when any or all of the AT&T common stock and the tracking stocks may
be considered to be overvalued or undervalued. In addition, a redemption at any
premium would preclude holders of both AT&T common stock and the redeemed
tracking stock from retaining their investment in a security intended to reflect
separately the financial performance and economic value of the relevant group.
It would also give holders of shares of the redeemed tracking stock an amount of
consideration that may differ from the amount of consideration a third-party
buyer pays or would pay for all or substantially all of the assets of the
respective group. For further details, see "The Broadband Charter Amendment
Proposal -- Broadband Group Tracking Stock Amendment" and "The Consumer Services
Charter Amendment Proposal -- Consumer Services Group Tracking Stock Amendment."

     Additionally, at any time, if the businesses, assets and liabilities of
AT&T Broadband Group are substantially equivalent to the businesses, assets and
liabilities of AT&T, our board of directors may mandatorily redeem shares of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock for AT&T common stock without a premium at a
ratio based on the number of shares of AT&T common stock outstanding, the number
of shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock outstanding and the AT&T
Broadband Group allocation fraction, as described under "The Broadband Charter
Amendment Proposal -- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock
Amendment -- AT&T Broadband Group Allocation Fraction." If we complete the
spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. in the manner we contemplate, our
board of directors will use this redemption right to redeem all shares of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock for shares of AT&T common stock.

WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE EXCHANGE OF SHARES OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP
AND/OR AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK FOR TRACKING STOCK OF ANOTHER
ENTITY

     In the event of a disposition or other transfer by AT&T of all of the
properties and assets of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group,
the Broadband Group charter amendment and the Consumer Services Group charter
amendment generally allow us to redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group

                                        23
   30

tracking stock in exchange for a new tracking stock of the entity that owns
materially all of the assets and liabilities of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T
Consumer Services Group, as the case may be. In order to require this
redemption, the new tracking stock must have substantially the same terms as
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock, as the case may be, including the definition of "AT&T Broadband Group" or
"AT&T Consumer Services Group." In the event of such a redemption, the voting
rights of the new tracking stock will be set based on the ratio, over a fixed
measurement period, of the initial trading prices of the new tracking stock to
the trading prices of the common stock of the entity of which the new tracking
stock is a part. While this new entity will own materially all of the properties
and assets of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group, as the case
may be, it may have different businesses and a different capital structure and
be subject to different risks than AT&T generally. In the event of redemption
for a tracking stock of a new entity, holders of the new tracking stock will
become equity holders of this new entity and become subject to risks affecting
this new entity generally. Additionally, adverse fluctuations in market
valuations at and after the time of issuance of the new tracking stock could
materially adversely affect the relative voting power of the new tracking stock
with respect to the voting power of this new entity as a whole. If we complete
the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. in the manner we contemplate,
our board of directors will use this redemption right to redeem all shares of
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for shares of a comparable tracking
stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. In this case, shareholders of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock no longer would be shareholders of AT&T
but would be shareholders of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

AT&T'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS MAY REDEEM AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK OR AT&T
CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK IN EXCHANGE FOR STOCK OF ONE OR MORE
QUALIFYING SUBSIDIARIES OF AT&T

     AT&T's charter provides that AT&T may, at any time, redeem all outstanding
shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock in exchange for a specified number of outstanding shares of
common stock of a subsidiary of AT&T that satisfies requirements under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and that holds, directly or
indirectly, all of the assets and liabilities of AT&T Broadband Group, in the
case of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, or AT&T Consumer Services Group, in
the case of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock. This type of redemption
may only be made on a pro rata basis, and must be tax free to the holders of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock, as the case may be, except with respect to any cash that holders receive
in lieu of fractional shares. For more information, see "The Broadband Charter
Amendment Proposal -- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock
Amendment -- Redemption" and "The Consumer Services Charter Amendment
Proposal -- Terms of the Consumer Services Group Tracking Stock
Amendment -- Redemption."

FUTURE SALES OF AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK, AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES
GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND AT&T COMMON STOCK COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT
THEIR RESPECTIVE MARKET PRICES AND THE ABILITY TO RAISE CAPITAL IN THE FUTURE

     Sales of substantial amounts of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock and AT&T common stock in the public
market could hurt the market price of each of those classes of stock. These
sales also could hurt AT&T's ability to raise capital in the future. The shares
that we plan to sell to the public in the public offering of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock and any shares of either class of tracking stock that we
distribute to holders of AT&T common stock will be freely tradable without
restriction under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by persons other than
"affiliates" of AT&T, as defined under the Securities Act. Any sales of
substantial amounts of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock or AT&T common stock in the public market, or the
perception that those sales might occur, could materially adversely affect the
respective market prices of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T Consumer
Services tracking stock or AT&T common stock, as applicable.

     The approval of the shareholders will not be solicited by AT&T for the
issuance of authorized but unissued shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock or AT&T common stock, unless
these approvals are deemed advisable by our board of directors or are required
by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange listing requirements. The
issuance of those shares could dilute the value of shares of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock or AT&T common
stock, as the case may be.

WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS ON AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK

     Determinations as to the future dividends on AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock primarily will be based upon the financial condition, results of
operations and business requirements of AT&T Broadband Group, and AT&T as a
whole. We currently do not expect to pay any dividends on AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock for the foreseeable future. Following any issuance of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock, it is currently expected that one-third
of the current dividend payable on AT&T common stock will be allocated to AT&T
common stock and that two-thirds of the dividend will be allocated to AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock. The declaration of dividends by AT&T and
the amount thereof will, however, be in the discretion of our board of directors
and will depend upon each of our group's financial performance, the dividend
policies and capital structures of comparable companies, each group's ongoing
capital needs, and AT&T's results of operations, financial condition, cash
requirements and future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by our board
of directors. Payment of dividends also may be restricted by loan agreements,
indentures and other transactions that AT&T enters into from time to time.

IF WE LIQUIDATE AT&T, AMOUNTS DISTRIBUTED TO HOLDERS OF EACH CLASS OF COMMON
STOCK MAY NOT REFLECT THE VALUE OF THE ASSETS ATTRIBUTED TO THE GROUPS

     Under our charter, we would determine the liquidation rights of the holders
of the respective classes of stock in accordance with each group's respective
market capitalization at the time of liquidation. However, the relative market
capitalization of each group may not correctly reflect the value of the net
assets remaining and attributed to the groups after satisfaction of outstanding
liabilities.

                 RISK FACTORS RELATING TO AT&T BROADBAND GROUP

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP HAS A HISTORY OF NET LOSSES AND NEGATIVE CASH FLOW AND
EXPECTS TO CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE NET LOSSES AND NEGATIVE CASH FLOW.
CONSEQUENTLY, AT&T BROADBAND GROUP MAY NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO FINANCE FUTURE
OPERATIONS

     AT&T Broadband Group (including its predecessor entities, TCI and MediaOne)
has had a history of net losses and negative cash flow and expects to continue
to report net losses and negative cash flow for the next few years. AT&T
Broadband Group reported net losses from continuing operations before
extraordinary items of $2.2 billion for the ten months ended December 31, 1999
and $5.4 billion for the year ended December 31, 2000. AT&T Broadband Group
reported negative free cash flow, or EBITDA, excluding asset impairment, pre-tax
losses from equity investments and other income and expense, and less capital
expenditures, from operations of $2.1 billion for the ten months ended December
31, 1999 and $2.7 billion for the year ended December 31, 2000. AT&T Broadband
Group cannot predict what impact continued losses and negative cash flows will
have on its ability to finance operations in the future.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP'S PROGRAMMING COSTS ARE INCREASING AND IT MAY NOT HAVE THE
ABILITY TO PASS THESE INCREASES ON TO ITS CUSTOMERS, WHICH WOULD MATERIALLY
ADVERSELY AFFECT ITS CASH FLOW AND OPERATING MARGINS

     Programming costs have been, and are expected to continue to be, AT&T
Broadband Group's largest single expense item. In recent years, the cable and
satellite video industries have experienced a rapid escalation in the cost of
programming, particularly sports programming. This escalation may continue, and
AT&T Broadband Group may not be able to pass programming cost increases on to
its customers. The inability to pass these programming cost increases on to its
customers would have a material adverse impact on its cash flow and operating
margins. In addition, as AT&T Broadband Group upgrades the channel capacity of
its systems and adds programming to its basic, expanded basic and digital
programming tiers, AT&T Broadband Group may face increased programming costs,
which, in conjunction with the additional market constraints on its ability to
pass programming costs on to its customers, may tighten operating margins.

     While AT&T Broadband Group has some investments in programming companies,
unlike some of its competitors it has no meaningful participation with regard to
programming, and consequently AT&T Broadband Group's exposure to programming
costs may be greater than that of some of its competitors.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP FACES SUBSTANTIAL COMPETITION

     The broadband communications industry in which AT&T Broadband Group
operates is highly competitive. In some instances, AT&T Broadband Group competes
against companies with fewer regulatory burdens, easier access to financing,
greater personnel resources, greater brand name recognition and long-standing
relationships with regulatory authorities. The following businesses offer some
or all of the services currently offered by AT&T Broadband Group, and mergers,
joint ventures and alliances among any of the following businesses could result
in providers capable of offering a combination of cable television, Internet and
other telecommunications services in direct competition with AT&T Broadband
Group:

     - cable television operators,

     - direct broadcast satellite, or DBS, providers,

     - regional telephone companies,

     - long distance telephone service providers,

     - utilities and municipalities,

                                        26
   33

     - providers of local area telephone services and access to long distance
       services to customers,

     - providers of cellular and other wireless communications services,

     - digital subscriber line, or DSL, resellers, and

     - Internet service providers, or ISPs.

     AT&T Broadband Group faces competition within the subscription television
industry. This industry includes providers of paid television service employing
technologies other than cable, but excludes broadcast companies that transmit
their signal to customers without assessing a subscription fee. AT&T Broadband
Group also faces competition from broadcast companies distributing television
broadcast signals without assessing a subscription fee and from other
communications and entertainment media, including the following:

     - conventional off-air television and radio broadcasting services,

     - DBS providers,

     - newspapers,

     - movie theaters,

     - Internet,

     - live sports events, and

     - home video products.

     There can be no assurance that upgrading its broadband facilities and
related infrastructure will allow AT&T Broadband Group to compete effectively.
Additionally, AT&T Broadband Group is subject to competition from
telecommunications providers and ISPs in connection with offerings of new and
advanced services, including telecommunications and Internet services.
Additionally, evolving DSL, wireless IP and consumer electronic technologies
(such as digital video recorders) may present an opportunity for AT&T Broadband
Group subscribers alternatively to obtain premium media content and erode
anticipated digital and advanced services revenues. Management cannot predict
the extent to which this competition may affect AT&T Broadband Group's business
and operations in the future.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP HAS SUBSTANTIAL EXISTING DEBT, WHICH COULD MATERIALLY
ADVERSELY AFFECT ITS FINANCIAL HEALTH AND AFFECT ITS ABILITY TO OBTAIN FINANCING
IN THE FUTURE AND REACT TO CHANGES IN ITS BUSINESS

     AT&T Broadband Group has a significant amount of debt. As of December 31,
2000, its total debt was approximately $28.42 billion. This debt could have
important consequences to investors. For example, it could:

     - make it more difficult for AT&T Broadband Group to satisfy its
       obligations under its credit facilities and to its noteholders;

     - increase AT&T Broadband Group's vulnerability to general adverse economic
       and broadband industry conditions, including interest rate fluctuations;

     - require AT&T Broadband Group to dedicate a substantial portion of its
       cash flow from operations to payments on its debt, which will reduce
       funds available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions
       of additional broadband systems and other general corporate expenses;

     - limit AT&T Broadband Group's flexibility in planning for, or reacting to,
       changes in its business and the broadband industry generally;

     - place AT&T Broadband Group at a disadvantage compared to its competitors
       that have proportionately less debt; and

                                        27
   34

     - limit AT&T Broadband Group's ability to borrow additional funds in the
       future, if needed, due to applicable financial and restrictive covenants
       in that debt.

     Additionally, following the spin-off, AT&T Broadband Corp., as historical
AT&T, will be burdened with any AT&T liabilities, including indebtedness, from
which AT&T Broadband Corp. is not released, even if not allocated to AT&T
Broadband Group. See "Risk Factors Relating to AT&T's Restructuring
Plan -- Following the spin-off, AT&T Broadband Corp. will be liable for
historical AT&T liabilities from which AT&T Broadband Corp. is not released,
even if not allocated to AT&T Broadband Group."

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP MAY SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASE ITS DEBT LEVEL IN THE FUTURE,
WHICH COULD SUBJECT IT TO VARIOUS RESTRICTIONS AND HIGHER INTEREST COSTS AND
DECREASE ITS CASH FLOW AND EARNINGS

     AT&T Broadband Group may substantially increase its debt level in the
future to fund the expansion, maintenance and upgrade of its systems and develop
new services, as well as to finance acquisitions. Any increase in debt could
subject it to various restrictions and higher interest costs and decrease its
cash flow and earnings. It also may be difficult for AT&T Broadband Group to
obtain all the financing it needs to fund its business and growth strategy on
desirable terms. AT&T Broadband Group may require substantial additional
financing in the future to fund capital expenditures and costs and expenses in
connection with funding its operations, investments and its growth strategy.

     AT&T and AT&T Broadband Group are exploring and evaluating the relative
advantages and disadvantages of various funding mechanisms for AT&T Broadband
Group. The alternatives being considered include a long-term debt offering, a
bank credit line, commercial paper, and other forms of public and private debt
facilities. The decision on debt composition is dependent on, among other
things, the business and financial plans of AT&T Broadband Group and the market
conditions at the time of financing. The agreements governing this indebtedness
may contain financial and other covenants that could impair the flexibility of
AT&T Broadband Group and restrict its ability to pursue growth opportunities.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP HAS SUBSTANTIAL CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

     AT&T Broadband Group intends to continue to upgrade a significant portion
of its broadband systems over the coming years and make other capital
investments, including with respect to its advanced services. AT&T Broadband
Group expects to incur substantial capital expenditures in 2001 and in future
years. The actual amount of the funds required for capital expenditures may vary
materially from management's estimate. The majority of these amounts is expected
to be used to acquire customer premises equipment (such as set-top boxes, cable
modems and telephony equipment) and to pay for installation costs for additional
video and advanced services customers. In addition, capital is expected to be
used to upgrade and rebuild most network systems to expand bandwidth capacity
and add two-way capability so that it may offer advanced services. There can be
no assurance that these amounts will be sufficient to accomplish the planned
system upgrades, customer premises equipment acquisitions and expansion.

     AT&T Broadband Group also has commitments under its "Social Contract" with
the FCC and under certain of its franchise agreements with local franchising
authorities, or LFAs, to upgrade and rebuild certain network systems. These
commitments may require capital expenditures in order to avoid default and/or
penalties, which expenditures may divert funds from other AT&T Broadband Group
priorities.

     AT&T Broadband Group's strategy and business plan will continue to require
substantial capital, which AT&T Broadband Group may not be able to obtain or to
obtain on favorable terms. A failure to obtain necessary capital would have a
material adverse effect on AT&T Broadband Group, and result in the delay, change
or abandonment of AT&T Broadband Group's development or expansion plans.

                                        28
   35

THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF FUNDS NECESSARY TO IMPLEMENT AT&T BROADBAND GROUP'S
STRATEGY AND BUSINESS PLAN MAY MATERIALLY EXCEED CURRENT ESTIMATES, WHICH COULD
HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON AT&T BROADBAND GROUP'S FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND ITS COMPETITIVENESS

     The actual amount of funds necessary to implement AT&T Broadband Group's
strategy and business plan may materially exceed AT&T Broadband Group's current
estimates in the event of various factors including:

     - departures from AT&T Broadband Group's current business plan,

     - unforeseen delays,

     - cost overruns,

     - unanticipated expenses,

     - regulatory developments,

     - engineering design changes,

     - unforeseen competitive developments,

     - changes in labor requirements, and

     - technological and other risks.

     If actual costs do materially exceed AT&T Broadband Group's current
estimates for these or other reasons, this would have a material adverse effect
on AT&T Broadband Group's financial condition and results of operations and its
competitiveness.

POTENTIAL ACQUISITIONS MAY REQUIRE AT&T BROADBAND GROUP TO INCUR SUBSTANTIAL
ADDITIONAL DEBT AND INTEGRATE NEW TECHNOLOGIES, OPERATIONS AND SERVICES, WHICH
MAY BE COSTLY AND TIME CONSUMING

     An element of AT&T Broadband Group's strategy is to further consolidate its
network geographically, which AT&T Broadband Group may do through the
acquisition of broadband providers or exchanges of systems with other providers.
These acquisitions may cause AT&T Broadband Group to incur substantial
additional indebtedness to finance the acquisitions or to assume indebtedness of
the entities that are acquired. In addition, AT&T Broadband Group may encounter
difficulties in integrating those acquired operations into its own operations,
including as a result of different technologies, franchising authority
requirements, systems, services or service offerings. These actions could prove
costly or time consuming or divert management's attention from other business
matters.

FAILURE TO DEVELOP FUTURE BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES MAY HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE
EFFECT ON AT&T BROADBAND GROUP'S GROWTH POTENTIAL

     AT&T Broadband Group intends to pursue a number of new growth opportunities
beyond its core video service, high-speed cable Internet service and telephony
services, such as video-on-demand, or VOD, and interactive television. These
opportunities involve new services for which there are no proven markets. In
addition, the ability to deploy and deliver these services relies, in many
instances, on new and unproven technology. AT&T Broadband Group's existing
technology may not perform as expected and AT&T Broadband Group may not be able
to successfully develop new technology to effectively and economically deliver
these services.

     In addition, these opportunities require substantial capital outlays and
network capacity availability to deploy on a large scale. This capital or
capacity may not be available to support these services.

     Furthermore, these services may not be widely introduced and fully
implemented in a timely fashion or at all. These services may not be successful
when they are in place, and customers may not purchase the services offered. If
these services are not successful or costs associated with implementation and
completion of the roll-out of these services materially exceed those currently

                                        29
   36

estimated by AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T Broadband Group's financial condition
and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP MAY NOT BE ABLE TO KEEP PACE WITH TECHNOLOGICAL
DEVELOPMENTS OR CUSTOMERS' DEMAND FOR ADVANCED SERVICES, WHICH COULD LIMIT ITS
ABILITY TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY

     The broadband business is characterized by rapid technological change and
the introduction of advanced services. AT&T Broadband Group cannot assure you
that it will be able to keep pace with technological developments, or that it
will successfully anticipate the demand of customers for services requiring new
technology. This type of rapid technological change could materially adversely
affect its plans to upgrade or expand its systems and respond to competitive
pressures. AT&T Broadband Group's inability to upgrade, maintain and expand its
systems and provide advanced services in a timely manner, or to anticipate the
demands of the marketplace, could materially adversely affect its ability to
compete. Consequently, growth, results of operations and financial condition
could suffer materially.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP MAY BE UNABLE TO NEGOTIATE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS ON
FAVORABLE TERMS AND ITS CONSTRUCTION COSTS MAY INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY, WHICH
COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT ITS GROWTH, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

     The continued expansion and upgrade of AT&T Broadband Group's existing
systems will require it to hire contractors and enter into a number of
construction agreements. AT&T Broadband Group may have difficulty hiring
contractors, and the contractors AT&T Broadband Group hires may encounter cost
overruns or delays in construction. Moreover, municipalities place certain
restrictions and have certain requirements relating to the time and manner in
which construction projects may be undertaken. Construction costs may increase
significantly over the next few years as existing contracts expire and as demand
for cable construction services continues to grow. There can be no assurance
that AT&T Broadband Group will be able to construct new systems or expand or
upgrade existing or acquired systems in a timely manner or at a reasonable cost.
This may materially adversely affect its growth, financial condition and results
of operations.

CERTAIN ENTITIES INCLUDED IN AT&T BROADBAND GROUP ARE SUBJECT TO LONG-TERM
EXCLUSIVE AGREEMENTS THAT MAY LIMIT THEIR FUTURE OPERATING FLEXIBILITY AND
MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT AT&T BROADBAND GROUP'S FINANCIAL RESULTS

     Certain entities attributed to AT&T Broadband Group may be subject to
certain long-term agreements relating to significant aspects of AT&T Broadband
Group's operations, including long-term agreements for video programming, audio
programming, electronic program guides and other services. For example, TCI
Communications, Inc. and Satellite Services, Inc., both affiliates of TCI, are
parties to an affiliation agreement with Encore Media Group, LLC, an affiliate
of Liberty Media Group, which extends to 2022 and provides for a fixed price
payment (subject to adjustment for certain factors, including inflation) and may
require AT&T Broadband Group to pay two-thirds of Encore Media Group's
programming costs above certain specified levels. Satellite Services, Inc. also
entered into a ten-year agreement with TV Guide in January 1999 for interactive
program guide services, which designates TV Guide Interactive as the exclusive
interactive programming guide for AT&T Broadband Group systems. The price, terms
and conditions of such agreements may not reflect the current market and if such
agreements continue to apply to AT&T Broadband Group, one or more of these
agreements may materially adversely impact the financial performance of AT&T
Broadband Group.

                                        30
   37

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP'S BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO EXTENSIVE GOVERNMENTAL LEGISLATION
AND REGULATION, WHICH COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT ITS BUSINESS BY
INCREASING ITS EXPENSES OR LIMITING ITS PRICING FLEXIBILITY

     Regulation of the broadband communications industry has increased the
administrative and operational expenses and limited the revenues of cable
systems. Broadband operators are subject to, among other things:

     - limited rate regulation,

     - requirements that, under specified circumstances, a cable system carry a
       local broadcast station or obtain consent to carry a local or distant
       broadcast station,

     - rules for franchise renewals and transfers, and

     - other requirements covering a variety of operational areas, such as
       technical standards and customer service requirements.

     Additionally, many aspects of these regulations currently are the subject
of judicial proceedings and administrative or legislative proposals. There also
are ongoing efforts to amend or expand the state and local regulation of some
cable systems, which may compound the regulatory risks AT&T Broadband Group
already faces. AT&T Broadband Group cannot predict whether in response to these
efforts any of the states or localities in which AT&T Broadband Group now
operates will expand regulation of its cable systems in the future or how they
will do so.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP MAY BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO ITS NETWORKS TO OTHER
ISPS, WHICH COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE UPGRADE OF ITS SYSTEMS OR ITS
ABILITY TO PROVIDE NEW PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

     Although there is at present no significant federal regulation of cable
system delivery of Internet services, and the FCC recently issued several
reports finding no immediate need to impose such regulation, this situation may
change as cable systems expand their broadband delivery of Internet services. In
particular, proposals have been advanced at the FCC and Congress that would
require cable operators to provide access to unaffiliated ISP and online service
providers. The Federal Trade Commission and the FCC recently imposed certain
open access requirements on Time Warner, Inc. and America Online, Inc. in
connection with their merger, but those requirements are not applicable to other
cable operators. Some states and LFAs are considering the imposition of
mandatory Internet access requirements as part of cable franchise renewals or
transfers. In June 2000, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected an attempt
by the City of Portland, Oregon to impose mandatory Internet access requirements
on the local cable operator. In addition, a federal district court overturned a
requirement by Broward County, Florida to provide access to unaffiliated ISPs.
AT&T Broadband Group has commenced a technical and operational trial to test how
multiple ISPs can offer high-speed, always-on cable Internet service over a
hybrid fiber coaxial network.

     AT&T Broadband Group believes that, should specific technological solutions
and/or specific pricing mechanisms be imposed on the industry, it:

     - would impair its ability to use its bandwidth in ways that would generate
       maximum revenues; and

     - may cause it to decide not to upgrade systems, which would prevent it
       from introducing its planned new services.

     In addition, AT&T Broadband Group believes that if there were governmental
imposition of mandatory Internet access requirements on the industry, it could:

     - increase the expenses AT&T Broadband Group incurs to enhance and maintain
       its information and network systems;

                                        31
   38

     - increase the expense of upgrading and/or expanding its hybrid
       fiber/coaxial and data systems;

     - limit profit margins to a prescribed level; and/or

     - further reduce the value of AT&T Broadband Group's investment in
       Excite@Home.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP'S CABLE SYSTEMS ARE OPERATED UNDER FRANCHISES THAT ARE
SUBJECT TO NON-RENEWAL OR TERMINATION; THE FAILURE TO RENEW A FRANCHISE COULD
MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT ITS BUSINESS IN A KEY MARKET

     AT&T Broadband Group's cable systems generally operate pursuant to
franchises, permits or licenses typically granted by a municipality or other
state or local government controlling the public rights-of-way. Many franchises
establish comprehensive facilities and service requirements, as well as specific
customer service standards and establish monetary penalties for non-compliance.
In many cases, franchises are terminable if the franchisee fails to comply with
material provisions set forth in the franchise agreement governing system
operations. Franchises generally are granted for fixed terms and must be
periodically renewed. LFAs may resist granting a renewal if either past
performance or the prospective operating proposal is considered inadequate. LFAs
often demand concessions or other commitments as a condition to renewal, which
concessions or other commitments have been and may continue to be costly to
obtain. In some instances, franchises have not been renewed at expiration, and
AT&T Broadband Group has operated under either temporary operating agreements or
without a license while negotiating renewal terms with the LFAs.

     AT&T Broadband Group cannot assure you that it will be able to comply with
all material provisions of its franchise agreements or that AT&T Broadband Group
will be able to renew its franchises in the future. A termination of and/or a
sustained failure to renew a franchise could materially adversely affect its
business in the affected geographic area.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP OPERATES CABLE SYSTEMS UNDER FRANCHISES THAT ARE
NONEXCLUSIVE; LFAS CAN GRANT ADDITIONAL FRANCHISES AND CREATE COMPETITION IN
MARKET AREAS WHERE NONE EXISTED PREVIOUSLY

     AT&T Broadband Group's cable systems are operated under franchises granted
by LFAs. These franchises are nonexclusive. Consequently, these LFAs can grant
additional franchises to competitors in the same geographic area. As a result,
competing operators may build systems in areas in which AT&T Broadband Group
holds franchises. In some cases municipal utilities may legally compete with
AT&T Broadband Group without obtaining a franchise from the LFA. The existence
of more than one cable system operating in the same territory is referred to as
an "overbuild." These overbuilds could materially adversely affect AT&T
Broadband Group's growth, financial condition and results of operations by
increasing competition or creating competition where no non-satellite
competition existed previously.

LFAS HAVE THE ABILITY TO IMPOSE ADDITIONAL REGULATORY CONSTRAINTS ON AT&T
BROADBAND GROUP'S BUSINESS, WHICH CAN FURTHER INCREASE EXPENSES

     In addition to the franchise document, cable authorities also have adopted
in some jurisdictions cable regulatory ordinances that further regulate the
operation of cable systems. This additional regulation increases AT&T Broadband
Group's expenses in operating its business. There can be no assurance that the
LFAs will not impose new and more restrictive requirements.

     LFAs also have the power to reduce rates and order refunds of basic service
and associated equipment rates paid in the previous 12-month period determined
to be in excess of the maximum permitted rates.

                                        32
   39

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP IS SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL REGULATORY BURDENS IN CONNECTION
WITH THE PROVISION OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICE, WHICH WILL CAUSE IT TO INCUR
ADDITIONAL COSTS

     AT&T Broadband Group is required to obtain U.S. federal, state and local
licenses or other authorizations in connection with its offering
telecommunications services. AT&T Broadband Group may not be able to obtain
these authorizations in a timely manner, or at all, and conditions could be
imposed upon these licenses or authorizations that may not be favorable to it.
Specific risks are also associated with the regulatory regime established by the
Telecommunications Act of 1996. These include risks related to AT&T Broadband
Group's interconnection agreements with local exchange carriers, or LECs, and
whether AT&T Broadband Group will be able to obtain these agreements or obtain
them on favorable terms. Also, AT&T Broadband Group is subject to risks
associated with the regulation of its telecommunications services by the FCC and
state public utilities commissions, or PUCs. Furthermore, telecommunications
companies, including IP telephony companies, generally are subject to
significant regulation as well as higher fees for pole attachments. IP telephony
companies are companies that have the ability to offer telephone services over
the Internet, and pole attachments are cable wires that are attached to poles.

     In particular, cable operators that provide telecommunications services and
cannot reach agreement with local utilities over pole attachment rates in states
that do not regulate pole attachment rates will be subject to a methodology
prescribed by the FCC for determining the rates. These rates may be higher than
those paid by cable operators that do not provide telecommunications services.
The rate increases are to be phased in over a five-year period beginning on
February 8, 2001. If AT&T Broadband Group become subject to telecommunications
regulation or higher pole attachment rates, AT&T Broadband Group may incur
additional costs that may be material to its business. The FCC clarified that a
cable operator's provision of cable Internet service does not affect the
favorable pole rates, but a recent decision by the Eleventh Circuit Court of
Appeals disagreed and suggested that Internet traffic is neither cable service
nor telecommunications service and might leave cable attachments that carry
Internet traffic ineligible for the federal rate structure. This decision could
lead to substantial increases in pole attachment rates, and certain utilities
have already proposed vastly higher pole attachment rates based in part on the
existing court decision. The United States Supreme Court is now reviewing this
decision. The Eleventh Circuit mandate has been stayed pending Supreme Court
action, and a variety of cable operators, including AT&T Broadband Group, are
challenging certain increased pole attachment rates at the FCC.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP IS RELIANT UPON EXCITE@HOME FOR THE DEVELOPMENT,
MAINTENANCE AND DISTRIBUTION OF ITS HIGH-SPEED CABLE INTERNET SERVICE; AND THE
GROWTH OF ITS HIGH SPEED CABLE INTERNET SERVICE IS DEPENDENT ON THE RELIABILITY,
AVAILABILITY AND STABILITY OF EXCITE@HOME'S NETWORK AND SERVICES

     AT&T Broadband Group has made a significant investment and commitment to
Excite@Home. It has a contractual arrangement that allows Excite@Home to be the
exclusive provider of high speed cable Internet services to residential
subscribers in AT&T Broadband Group cable systems (other than those affiliated
with Road Runner LLC) through June 4, 2002. While AT&T Broadband Group may
distribute other residential Internet services after this period of exclusivity
has expired, it has committed to use Excite@Home as its provider of platform
connectivity services in its residential high-speed cable Internet services and
to make Excite@Home's content services a featured portal for AT&T Broadband
Group's residential Internet services. The impact of this agreement cannot be
accurately determined. If Excite@Home is not able to maintain its financial
viability while improving its current network and ISP performance and scaling
its network and services for anticipated growth, this could materially adversely
impact the expansion of AT&T Broadband Group's high-speed cable Internet service
and the financial performance of AT&T Broadband Group.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP FACES RISKS RELATING TO ITS INVESTMENT IN EXCITE@HOME,
INCLUDING RISKS RELATING TO EXCITE@HOME'S LIQUIDITY

     On April 17, 2001, Excite@Home issued a press release announcing that, due
to recent acceleration in the weakness of the market for online advertising and
marketing services, it expects to report significantly lower revenues, greater
operating losses, and more rapid use of cash than previously forecasted for the
balance of 2001. As a result, Excite@Home will record in its first quarter
results an impairment charge associated with its media business. Because AT&T
owns approximately 23% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of
Excite@Home, AT&T will record an impairment charge in its first quarter results
of $739 million, which will have a net income impact, after minority
elimination, of $279 million. After giving effect to the charge, AT&T's carrying
value of Excite@Home will be approximately $490 million.

     In light of the weaker financial outlook, Excite@Home announced it is
taking several immediate measures to conserve cash and raise additional funds.
These measures include adopting a revised operating plan with lower expenses and
the execution of a non-binding letter of agreement with AT&T, under which AT&T
may provide Excite@Home with $75 million to $85 million in connection with the
restructuring of the backbone fiber agreement between the companies and with a
joint initiative to maintain and improve current network performance levels. In
addition, Excite@Home said it may negotiate additional debt and/or equity
financing from third parties, and continue efforts to focus its resources around
its broadband franchise through the potential sale or restructuring of its media
operations not directly supporting the broadband strategy. If Excite@Home does
not achieve its targeted expense reductions or other stated initiatives and
raise at least $75 million to $80 million by June 30, 2001, there would be a
material adverse impact on Excite@Home's operations and liquidity.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP HAS SUBSTANTIAL ECONOMIC INTERESTS IN JOINT VENTURES IN
WHICH IT HAS LIMITED MANAGEMENT RIGHTS

     AT&T Broadband Group is a partner in several large joint ventures, such as
TWE, Texas Cable Partners and Kansas City Cable Partners, in which it has a
substantial economic interest but does not have substantial control with regard
to management policies or the selection of management. These joint ventures may
be managed in a manner contrary to the best interests of AT&T Broadband Group,
and the value of AT&T Broadband Group's investment in these joint ventures may
be affected by management policies that are determined without input from AT&T
Broadband Group or over the objections of AT&T Broadband Group.

AT&T BROADBAND GROUP OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL RESULTS MAY BE MATERIALLY
ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY RESIDUAL LIABILITIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE RESTRUCTURING OF
THE ROAD RUNNER JOINT VENTURE AND THE RESULTING TRANSITION TO EXCITE@HOME

     AT&T Broadband Group, through the MediaOne acquisition, acquired an
interest in Road Runner, a broadband cable ISP similar to Excite@Home. In
December 2000, AT&T Broadband Group and the other cable members of Road Runner
agreed to restructure this venture and distribute the assets to the cable
members. Consequently, on May 1, 2001, AT&T Broadband Group purchased the Road
Runner assets used to support the AT&T Broadband Group high-speed cable Internet
subscribers and sold its equity interest in Road Runner to subsidiaries of AOL
Time Warner Inc. However, AT&T Broadband Group and AOL Time Warner have agreed
to jointly satisfy certain residual liabilities associated with the
restructuring of Road Runner in proportion to their prior equity interests in
Road Runner. The extent of these residual liabilities cannot be determined at
this time and payment of AT&T Broadband Group's portion of such liabilities may
have a material adverse affect on its financial condition.

     AT&T Broadband Group intends to migrate its Road Runner high-speed cable
Internet subscribers over time to the Excite@Home service. Implementation of
this transition may result in unanticipated material delays and financial
expense.

             RISK FACTORS RELATING TO AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP
                        AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP

     Prior to the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., AT&T Business
Services Group includes any retained portion of the value of AT&T Wireless
Group, AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group, and is thereby
subject to risks related to these groups.

AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP EXPECT THERE TO BE
A CONTINUED DECLINE IN THE LONG DISTANCE INDUSTRY

     Historically, prices for voice communications have fallen because of the
introduction of more efficient networks and advanced technology, product
substitution, deregulation and competition. AT&T Consumer Services Group and
AT&T Business Services Group expect these trends to continue and neither group
can predict to what extent it may need to reduce its prices in the future to
remain competitive. In addition, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business
Services Group do not expect that they will be able to achieve increased traffic
volumes in the near future to sustain their current revenue levels. The extent
to which each of AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business Services
Group's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow could
be materially adversely affected will depend on the pace at which these
industry-wide changes continue and its ability to create new and innovative
services to differentiate its offerings, enhance customer retention and retain
or grow market share.

AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP FACE SUBSTANTIAL
COMPETITION

     Each of AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group
currently faces significant competition and expects that the level of
competition will continue to increase. AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T
Business Services Group traditionally have competed with other long distance
carriers. In recent years, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business
Services Group have begun to compete with incumbent LECs, which historically
have dominated local telecommunications and with other competitive LECs for the
provision of long distance services. Some Regional Bell Operating Companies, or
RBOCs, such as Verizon Communications Inc. in New York and SBC Communications
Inc. in Texas, Kansas and Oklahoma, already have been permitted to offer long
distance services in certain states within their regions and have applications
pending with the FCC for authorization to offer long distance service in other
states within their regions. In April 2001, Verizon was granted authorization to
provide long distance service in Massachusetts. Also in April 2001, SBC filed an
application with the FCC for authority to provide long distance communications
service in Missouri, and Verizon filed an application seeking such authority in
Connecticut. The FCC is due to rule on those requests by July 3 and July 16,
respectively. The incumbent LECs presently have numerous advantages as a result
of their historic monopoly control over local exchanges. Additionally, in the
next few years, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group
expect that Verizon and SBC will seek to enter virtually all states in their
regions and that other RBOCs will be given permission to offer long distance
services within their regions. A continuing trend toward business combinations
and alliances in the telecommunications industry may create significant new
competitors. Some of AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business Services
Group's existing and potential competitors have financial, personnel and other
resources significantly greater than those of AT&T Consumer Services Group and
AT&T Business Services Group.

     Competitive conditions create a risk of market share loss and the risk that
customers shift to less profitable, lower margin services. Competitive pressures
also create challenges for each of AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T
Business Services Group's ability to grow new businesses or introduce new
services successfully and execute on its business plan, including, most
significantly, the ability to purchase fairly priced access services. Each of
AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group faces the risk of
potential price cuts by its competitors that could materially

                                        35
   42

adversely affect both market share and margins. AT&T Consumer Services Group and
AT&T Business Services Group believe that it is unlikely that they will sustain
existing price or margin levels.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group also face the
risk of increasing competition from entities that own their own access
facilities, particularly the RBOCs, which have access facilities across vast
regions of the United States with the ability to control cost, cycle time and
functionality for most end-to-end services in their regions. These entities can
preserve large market share and high margins on access services as they enter
new markets, including long distance and end-to-end services. This places them
in superior position vis-a-vis AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business
Services Group and other competitors that must purchase such high-margin access
services. Additionally, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services
Group may initiate price cuts in order to seek to retain market share or to seek
to slow decline of market share.

     The cost structure of AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business
Services Group also affects their competitiveness. Each of AT&T Consumer
Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group faces the risk that it will not
be able to maintain a competitive cost structure if newer technologies favor
newer competitors that do not have legacy infrastructure, and as technology
substitution continues. Each of AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business
Services Group's ability to make critical investments to improve cost structure
also may be impaired by its current debt obligations.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group also may be
subject to additional competitive pressures from the development of new
technologies and the increased availability of domestic and international
transmission capacity. The telecommunications industry is in a period of rapid
technological evolution, marked by the introduction of new product and service
offerings and increasing satellite, wireless, fiber optic and coaxial cable
transmission capacity for services similar to those provided by AT&T Consumer
Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group. AT&T Consumer Services Group
and AT&T Business Services Group cannot predict which of many possible future
product and service offerings will be important to maintain their competitive
position or what expenditures will be required to develop and provide these
products and services.

THE REGULATORY AND LEGISLATIVE ENVIRONMENT CREATES CHALLENGES FOR AT&T CONSUMER
SERVICES GROUP AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP

     Each of AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group faces
the risk of the impact of the implementation of current regulations and
legislation, unfavorable changes in regulation or the introduction of new
onerous regulation. These risks include the impact of the following:

     - current law has been implemented in a manner that has not allowed
       effective entry into local markets due to noncompetitive pricing of
       access and local service and RBOC systems that do not permit rapid
       large-scale customer changes from RBOCs to new service providers, and

     - new head-on competition as RBOCs begin to enter the long distance
       business.

     At present, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group
do not believe that many market entry rules have been applied or enforced to
allow the economic viability of the various local market access alternatives or
effective large scale management of customers. Further, few facilities-based
competitors to RBOCs have emerged and there is no significant alternate source
of supply for most access and local services. One consequence of this is that
AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group remain ultimately
dependent on RBOCs for supply as RBOCs still represent substantially all of the
access and still control cost, cycle times and functionality.

                                        36
   43

     This dependency on supply materially adversely impacts each of AT&T
Business Services Group's and AT&T Consumer Services Group's cost structure and
its ability to create and market desirable and competitive end-to-end products
for customers. Absent more effective application of rules and regulations, RBOCs
will be well-positioned to deter new entrants to local service.

     In addition, RBOCs will be entering the long distance business while they
still control substantially all the access facilities in their regions. This
will likely result in an increased level of competition for long distance or
end-to-end services as the services offered by RBOCs expand.

EACH OF AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP HAS
SUBSTANTIAL EXISTING DEBT, WHICH COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THEIR
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND ABILITY TO OBTAIN FINANCING IN THE FUTURE AND REACT TO
CHANGES IN THEIR BUSINESSES; THESE DEBT LEVELS MAY INCREASE IN THE FUTURE

     Each of AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group has a
significant amount of debt. As of December 31, 2000, AT&T Consumer Services
Group's total debt was approximately $4.0 billion, and AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s total debt was approximately $31.1 billion. Intense competitive
pressures, adverse regulatory developments or other factors could cause future
debt levels to increase materially. This significant amount of debt could have
important consequences to investors. For example, it could:

     - make it more difficult for AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business
       Services Group to satisfy their obligations under their credit facilities
       and to their respective noteholders;

     - increase AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business Services
       Group's vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry
       conditions, including interest rate fluctuations, to the extent their
       borrowings are or continue to be at variable rates of interest;

     - require AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group to
       dedicate a substantial portion of their respective cash flow from
       operations to payments on their debt, which will reduce funds available
       for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions of additional
       systems and other general corporate expenses;

     - limit AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business Services Group's
       flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in their businesses
       and the communications industry generally;

     - place AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group at a
       disadvantage compared to their competitors that have proportionately less
       debt; and

     - limit AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business Services Group's
       ability to borrow additional funds in the future due to applicable
       financial and restrictive covenants in that debt.

EACH OF AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP MAY
SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASE ITS DEBT LEVEL IN THE FUTURE, WHICH COULD SUBJECT IT TO
VARIOUS RESTRICTIONS AND HIGHER INTEREST COSTS AND DECREASE ITS CASH FLOW AND
EARNINGS

     Each of AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group may
substantially increase its debt level in the future, which could subject it to
various restrictions and higher interest costs and decrease its cash flow and
earnings. It also may be difficult for AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T
Business Services Group to obtain all the financing they need to fund their
businesses and growth strategies on desirable terms. The amount of debt required
in the future will depend upon the performance revenue and margin of each group,
which in turn may be materially adversely affected by competitive and other
pressures. Any agreements governing indebtedness obtained by AT&T Consumer
Services Group or AT&T Business Services Group may contain financial and other
covenants that could impair AT&T Consumer Services Group's or AT&T Business
Services Group's flexibility and restrict its ability to pursue growth
opportunities.

   44

THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF FUNDS NECESSARY TO IMPLEMENT EACH OF AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES
GROUP'S AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP'S STRATEGY AND BUSINESS PLAN MAY
MATERIALLY EXCEED CURRENT ESTIMATES, WHICH COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT
ON ITS FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The actual amount of funds necessary to implement each of AT&T Consumer
Services Group's and AT&T Business Services Group's strategy and business plan
may materially exceed AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business Services
Group's current estimates in the event of various factors, including:

     - competitive downward pressures on revenues and margins,

     - departures from AT&T Consumer Services Group's and AT&T Business Services
       Group's respective current business plans,

     - regulatory developments,

     - unforeseen competitive developments,

     - technological and other risks,

     - unanticipated expenses,

     - unforeseen delays and cost overruns, and

     - engineering design changes.

     If actual costs do materially exceed AT&T Consumer Services Group's and/or
AT&T Business Services Group's current estimates for these or other reasons,
this would have a material adverse effect on AT&T Consumer Services Group's
and/or AT&T Business Services Group's financial condition and results of
operations.

AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP'S BUILD OUT OF ITS NEXT GENERATION IP BACKBONE
NETWORK REQUIRES SUBSTANTIAL CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS AND SUBSTANTIAL CAPITAL
EXPENDITURES

     AT&T Business Services Group's business plan will require substantial
capital expenditures in connection with its build out of its end-to-end IP
connectivity network, including both the next generation IP backbone as well as
dedicated IP customer connectivity and hosting facilities. AT&T Business
Services Group may not be able to obtain or to obtain sufficient capital on
favorable terms. This failure to obtain capital would have a material adverse
effect on AT&T Business Services Group, and result in the delay, change or
abandonment of its development or expansion plans.

AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP'S POTENTIAL GROWTH IN DSL IS SUBJECT TO
COMMERCIALLY VIABLE ACCESS TO INCUMBENT LEC FACILITIES, AND REQUIRES SUBSTANTIAL
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

     The AT&T Consumer Services Group's business plan will require substantial
capital expenditures in connection with its expansion into providing DSL voice
and data services. AT&T Consumer Services Group historically has not had to
incur these capital expenditures, and it may not be able to obtain sufficient
capital on favorable terms or at all. This failure to obtain capital would have
a material adverse effect on AT&T Consumer Services Group, and result in the
delay, change or abandonment of its development or expansion plans.

AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP MAY BE SUBJECT TO NON-COMPETE OBLIGATIONS IN A
DEFINED GEOGRAPHIC AREA UNTIL 2006 RELATING TO WIRELINE HIGH-SPEED INTERNET
ACCESS SERVICES

     As part of the March 28, 2000, agreement among AT&T, Excite@Home, Comcast
Corporation and Cox Communications, Inc. relating to the reorganization of the
governance and distribution arrangements of Excite@Home, AT&T agreed that until
June 4, 2006, AT&T will not provide wireline high-speed Internet access services
to residential customers in the United States in areas that are served by the
cable systems of Comcast or Cox. AT&T's obligation will terminate automatically
as to either Comcast or Cox, if Comcast or Cox, as the case may be, does not
continue to use Excite@Home as its primary provider of high-speed cable Internet
services in substantially all of its

                                        38
   45

U.S. cable systems. AT&T further agreed to use all reasonable efforts to cause
its subsidiaries and affiliates to comply with the provisions, terms and
obligations of that agreement that are applicable to them. If this agreement is
interpreted to apply to the activities of AT&T Consumer Services Group, it could
limit AT&T Consumer Services Group's ability to provide DSL and other wireline
high-speed Internet services in the geographic areas where Comcast and Cox have
cable systems and could have a material adverse effect on AT&T Consumer Services
Group's ability to expand and grow its wireline high-speed Internet business
generally or to achieve economies of scale in that business.

SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE TELEPHONE CALLS MADE BY EACH OF AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES
GROUP'S AND AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP'S CUSTOMERS ARE CONNECTED USING OTHER
COMPANIES' NETWORKS, INCLUDING THOSE OF ITS COMPETITORS

     AT&T Consumer Services Group principally is a long distance voice
telecommunications company. AT&T Consumer Services Group does not own or operate
any primary transmission facilities. Accordingly, it must route domestic and
international calls made by its customers over transmission facilities leased
from AT&T Business Services Group. AT&T Business Services Group provides long
distance telecommunications over its own transmission facilities. However,
because AT&T Business Services Group's network does not extend to homes, both
AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group must route calls
through a local telephone company to reach AT&T Business Services Group's
transmission facilities and, ultimately, to reach their final destinations.

     In the United States, the providers of local telephone service generally
are the incumbent LECs, including the RBOCs. The permitted pricing of local
transmission facilities that AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business
Services Group lease in the United States is subject to uncertainties. The FCC
has issued an order requiring incumbent LECs to price those facilities that both
AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group would use to
provide local exchange and exchange access services at their total element
long-run incremental cost, and the Supreme Court upheld the FCC's jurisdiction
to set a pricing standard for local transmission facilities provided to
competitors. The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals on remand struck down the FCC's
pricing and new element combination rules, but the Supreme Court in January 2001
again agreed to review the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals's decision. Should
the incumbent LECs succeed before the Supreme Court, the result probably would
be to increase the cost of incumbent local transmission facilities obtained by
AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group. Also, AT&T
Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group could expect incumbent
LECs to bring additional challenges before U.S. federal and state regulators
concerning various aspects of the Supreme Court's ultimate ruling, should
incumbent LECs view it unfavorably.

AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP MUST RELY ON AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP'S ABILITY
TO MAINTAIN, UPGRADE AND REDUCE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CORE NETWORK, WHICH
MAY LEAD TO ADDITIONAL COSTS

     AT&T Consumer Services Group currently is dependent upon AT&T Business
Services Group for leased line capacity, data communications facilities, traffic
termination services and physical space for offices and equipment. Although AT&T
Consumer Services Group expects to enter into a services agreement with AT&T
Business Services Group for it to provide these services, if AT&T Business
Services Group becomes unwilling or unable to provide its current level of
services to AT&T Consumer Services Group during the term of the service
agreement or thereafter, AT&T Consumer Services Group may not be able to find
replacement service providers on a timely basis. If AT&T Consumer Services Group
is required to change providers, AT&T Consumer Services Group would likely
experience delays, operational difficulties and increased expenses, and its
ability to provide services to customers or expand operations may be impaired.

                                        39
   46

FAILURE TO DEVELOP FUTURE BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES MAY HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE
EFFECT ON AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP'S GROWTH POTENTIAL

     AT&T Consumer Services Group intends to pursue growth opportunities in
providing services over a DSL platform, which involve new services for which
there are no proven markets. In addition, the ability to deploy and deliver
these services relies, in many instances, on new and unproven technology. AT&T
Consumer Services Group's DSL platform may not perform as expected and AT&T
Consumer Services Group may not be able to successfully develop new enabling
systems to effectively and economically deliver these services. In addition,
these opportunities require substantial capital outlays to deploy on a large
scale. This capital may not be available to support these services. Furthermore,
each of these opportunities entails additional operational risks. For example,
the delivery of DSL services requires AT&T Consumer Services Group to provide
installation and maintenance services, which services AT&T Consumer Services
Group has never provided previously. This will require AT&T Consumer Services
Group to hire, employ, train and equip technicians to provide installation and
repair in each market served, or rely on subcontractors to perform these
services. AT&T Consumer Services Group may not be able to hire and train
sufficient numbers of qualified employees or subcontract these services, or do
so on economically attractive terms. These services may not be successful when
they are in place, and customers may not purchase the services offered. If these
services are not successful or costs associated with implementation and
completion of the roll-out of these services materially exceed those currently
estimated by AT&T Consumer Services Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group's
financial condition and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP IS ENGAGED IN STRATEGIC DISCUSSIONS WITH BT
REGARDING POTENTIAL TRANSACTIONS WHICH MAY SUBSTANTIALLY AFFECT ITS BUSINESS AND
THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS

     AT&T Business Services Group and BT are equal owners of the Concert global
joint venture, which serves the communications needs of multinational companies
and the international calling needs of businesses around the world. AT&T and BT
are discussing ways to improve the performance of the business. These
discussions include a variety of strategic alternatives to the Concert joint
venture, including an acquisition of, or a business combination of our business
services unit, upon its planned separation from the remainder of AT&T, with,
BT's business services operations. Such a transaction could include all or a
substantial portion of BT's business services operations, including BT Ignite
and BT's interest in Concert, in exchange for some mixture of cash, equity
and/or other instruments in the combined business. These discussions may or may
not lead to any acquisition or other business combination and may or may not
lead to any change in the existing alliance arrangements. As possible
alternatives to such a transaction, we have also been considering a narrowing of
Concert's business scope, as well as its termination as a joint venture. There
can be no assurances, however, that an agreement could be reached with BT with
regard to either of such alternatives. We cannot tell you whether these
discussions will continue, whether any of these transactions, or other
transactions, will be completed, or the timing or terms of any possible
transaction.

  RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE SPIN-OFF OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC.

     You should consider the following factors, in addition to the other
information contained elsewhere in this document, in connection with the
spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. We refer to the post-spin-off
AT&T as "AT&T Broadband Corp."

THE SPIN-OFF WILL REQUIRE AT&T TO RESTRUCTURE A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF
INDEBTEDNESS, WHICH MAY INVOLVE MATERIAL COSTS AND MAY BE DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE

     A substantial portion of AT&T's indebtedness, including its long-term
indebtedness, will be allocated to AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T
Consumer Services Group. This indebtedness currently is an obligation of AT&T.
At or before the time of the spin-off, when AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
is separated from historical AT&T, we plan to seek to transfer the indebtedness
allocated to AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group from
historical AT&T to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. We may seek to accomplish
this through a variety of measures that may result in increased costs and
additional covenants on AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

IF WE COMPLETE THE SPIN-OFF, EACH OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. AND AT&T
BROADBAND CORP. WILL NEED TO OBTAIN FINANCING ON A STAND-ALONE BASIS

     Historically, all financing for AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T
Broadband Corp. was done by AT&T at the parent level. AT&T was able to use its
overall balance sheet to finance the operations of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp. If we complete the spin-off, AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp. will have to raise financing on a
stand-alone basis without reference to AT&T's new overall balance sheet.
Following the spin-off, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband
Corp. may not be able to secure adequate debt or equity financing on desirable
terms. If concerns generally affecting the communications services industry or
the broadband industry arise, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T
Broadband Corp. will lose the benefit of the other's current diverse business
profile to support its debt. The cost to each of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp. of stand-alone financing may be materially higher
than the cost of financing that AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T
Broadband Corp. incurred as part of AT&T.

     The credit ratings of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband
Corp. following the spin-off may be different than the historical ratings of
AT&T. After the spin-off, AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s and AT&T
Broadband Corp.'s credit ratings may be different from what they will be prior
to the spin-off. Differences in credit ratings affect the interest rate charged
on financings, as well as the amounts of indebtedness, types of financing
structures and debt markets that may be available to AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp. following the spin-off. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp. may not be able to raise
the capital they require on desirable terms following the spin-off.

IF WE COMPLETE THE SPIN-OFF, AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. AND AT&T
BROADBAND CORP. MAY BE UNABLE TO MAKE THE CHANGES NECESSARY TO OPERATE AS
INDEPENDENT ENTITIES AND MAY INCUR GREATER COSTS

     If we complete the spin-off, the separation of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. from the Broadband businesses of AT&T may materially adversely
affect both AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp.

     In particular, following the spin-off, AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
and AT&T Broadband Corp. will have no obligation to provide financial,
operational or organizational assistance to each other, other than limited
services. Each of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T

                                        41
   48

Broadband may not be able to implement successfully the changes necessary to
operate independently. Each of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T
Broadband Corp. also may incur additional costs relating to operating
independently that would cause its cash flow and results of operations to
decline materially. In addition, although AT&T Consumer Services and AT&T
Broadband Corp. may be able to participate in some of each other's supplier
arrangements where those arrangements permit this or the vendors agree to this,
their respective supplier arrangements may not be as favorable as has
historically been the case.

     Agreements to be entered into in connection with the spin-off may provide
that the businesses of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband
Corp. will be conducted differently and that their relationship will be
different from that which has historically been the case. These differences may
have a detrimental effect on the results of operations or financial condition of
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. or AT&T Broadband Corp.

THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF EACH OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES,
INC. AND AT&T BROADBAND GROUP MAY NOT BE REPRESENTATIVE OF ITS RESULTS AS AN
INDEPENDENT ENTITY, AND, THEREFORE, MAY NOT BE RELIABLE AS AN INDICATOR OF ITS
HISTORICAL OR FUTURE RESULTS

     The historical financial information we have included and incorporated in
this document may not reflect what the results of operations, financial position
and cash flows of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Group
would have been had they been independent entities during the periods presented.
This is because the combined financial statements reflect allocations for
services provided to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Group
by AT&T, which allocations may not reflect the costs AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp. will incur for similar or incremental
services as independent entities. In addition, among other things, the
historical financial information we have included does not reflect transactions
that are expected to occur in connection with the spin-off. See
"Summary -- Consolidating Condensed Financial Information" and "Selected
Historical Financial Data of AT&T Communications Services, Inc."

     This historical financial information also is not reliable as an indicator
of future results.

IF WE COMPLETE THE SPIN-OFF, AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. WILL GENERALLY
BE RESPONSIBLE FOR TAX LIABILITY IF THE SPIN-OFF IS TAXABLE

     Under the separation and distribution agreement to be entered into between
AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc., subject to limited exceptions, AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. will be responsible for any liability that results
from the spin-off failing to qualify as a tax-free transaction. If the spin-off
fails to qualify as a tax-free transaction, this liability could have a material
adverse effect on AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group.

IF WE COMPLETE THE SPIN-OFF, VARIOUS FACTORS MAY INTERFERE WITH AT&T
COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC.'S ABILITY TO ENGAGE IN DESIRABLE STRATEGIC
TRANSACTIONS AND EQUITY ISSUANCES

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. may be prevented from engaging in some
strategic transactions after the spin-off. The Code restricts the ability of a
company that has undergone a tax-free spin-off from certain issuances of shares
generally within a two-year period after the spin-off. In addition, the
separation and distribution agreement will prohibit AT&T Communications
Services, Inc., for a period of   months following the spin-off, from entering
into certain transactions that could render the spin-off taxable. This may
discourage, delay or prevent a merger, change of control, or other strategic or
capital raising transaction involving the issuance of equity by AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. Provisions of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
charter and by-laws, its rights plan and applicable law also may have the effect
of discouraging, delaying or preventing change of control transactions that its
shareholders find desirable.

IF WE COMPLETE THE SPIN-OFF, EACH OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. AND AT&T
BROADBAND CORP. MAY LOSE RIGHTS UNDER AGREEMENTS WITH EACH OTHER IF A CHANGE OF
CONTROL OCCURS

     We expect that some of the agreements that AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. and AT&T Broadband Corp. expect to enter into in connection with the
spin-off, including the brand license agreement, intellectual property
agreement, network services agreement and other commercial agreements, will
contain provisions that give one party rights in the event of a change of
control of the other party. These provisions may deter a change of control. In
the event of a change of control, the exercise of these rights could have a
material adverse effect on AT&T Communications Services, Inc. or AT&T Broadband
Corp.

THE MARKET PRICE AND TRADING VOLUME OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. COMMON
STOCK, THE NEW CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK AND AT&T BROADBAND CORP.
COMMON STOCK FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF MAY BE VOLATILE AND MAY FACE NEGATIVE
PRESSURE

     Before the spin-off, there will be no trading market for shares of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. common stock that holders of AT&T common stock
will receive in the spin-off or shares of the new Consumer Services Group
tracking stock that holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will
receive in exchange for their shares in the spin-off. Investors' interest may
not lead to a liquid trading market and the market price of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. common stock, the new Consumer Services Group tracking stock and
AT&T Broadband Corp. common stock may be volatile. Following the spin-off, there
may be confusion due to the additional shares of stock that represent interests
in AT&T Broadband Group, which could materially adversely affect the market
price of AT&T Broadband Corp. common stock.

               RISK FACTORS RELATING TO AT&T'S RESTRUCTURING PLAN

IF WE DO NOT COMPLETE AT&T'S RESTRUCTURING PLAN AS WE INTEND, THERE MAY BE
ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES TO AT&T AND ITS VARIOUS GROUPS

     AT&T's restructuring plan is complicated, and involves a substantial number
of steps and transactions. The implementation of AT&T's restructuring plan will
require various approvals and be subject to various conditions, including
Internal Revenue Service rulings. In addition, future financial conditions,
superior alternatives or other factors may arise or occur that make it
inadvisable to proceed with part or all of AT&T's restructuring plan, and our
board of directors is not obligated to proceed with AT&T's restructuring plan
even if all approvals are received and all conditions are satisfied. Also, other
events or circumstances, including litigation, could occur that could affect the
timing or terms of the restructuring, or our ability to or plans to complete it.
In addition, we could decide to propose additional transactions involving AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. or AT&T Broadband Corp.

     If we are unable to complete AT&T's restructuring plan as we expect, or the
implementation of AT&T's restructuring plan is more complex than we expect, this
could have a material adverse effect on AT&T, its businesses or the trading
prices of its securities. Any or all of the elements of AT&T's restructuring
plan may not occur as we currently expect or in the time frames that we
currently contemplate, or at all. Alternative forms of restructuring, including
sales of interests in these businesses, would reduce what is available for
distribution to shareholders in the restructuring.

AT&T'S RESTRUCTURING PLAN REQUIRES FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES TO AT&T AND AT&T'S
BUSINESSES THAT MAY BE HARD TO IMPLEMENT

     If we complete AT&T's restructuring plan, each of AT&T's current businesses
will need to make changes in its operations that will require substantial effort
and involve substantial risks and costs. These include risks relating to
operating as less diversified businesses compared to operating as part of a
fully integrated communications company. These changes may materially adversely
affect each business's competitive position, operations and financial condition.
If any of these businesses is unable to make this transition smoothly or is not
able to operate as effectively after the restructuring, the financial position
and results of operations of that business could suffer and cause the trading
value of securities intended to reflect the financial performance and economic
value of that business to decline materially.

THE TOTAL VALUE OF THE SECURITIES ISSUED IN AT&T'S RESTRUCTURING PLAN MIGHT BE
LESS THAN THE VALUE OF AT&T COMMON STOCK WITHOUT AT&T'S RESTRUCTURING PLAN

     If we complete AT&T's restructuring plan as we currently contemplate,
holders of AT&T common stock who do not dispose of those shares of AT&T common
stock eventually will own new securities issued by or intended to reflect the
financial performance and economic value of three businesses: AT&T Broadband
Group, AT&T Consumer Services and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. The
aggregate value of these securities could be less than what the value of AT&T
common stock would be without AT&T's restructuring. The trading price of AT&T
common stock may decline as a result of the implementation of AT&T's
restructuring plan or as a result of other factors.

     If we complete the restructuring, these new securities will begin trading
publicly for the first time. Until orderly trading markets develop for each of
these new securities, and after that time as well, there may be significant
fluctuations in price. Also, we have not yet determined many of the details of
AT&T's restructuring plan, and these details could materially adversely impact
the value of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock and/or AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
common stock.

   51

AT&T'S RESTRUCTURING MAY MATERIALLY ADVERSELY IMPACT THE COMPETITIVE POSITION OF
AT&T'S BUSINESS UNITS

     In connection with the restructuring, there is a risk that AT&T's separated
business units may not be able to create effective intercompany agreements to
facilitate effective cost sharing or enter into mutually desirable bundling
arrangements. Competition between AT&T's business units in overlapping markets,
including consumer markets where cable telephone and DSL solutions may be
available at the same time, could result in more downward price pressure. It is
expected that the different businesses and companies will share the AT&T brand
after the restructuring, which will likely increase this level of competition.
In addition, any incremental costs associated with implementing AT&T's
restructuring plan may materially adversely affect the different businesses and
companies. Additionally, synergies resulting from cooperation and joint
ownership among AT&T's groups may be lost due to the restructuring.

AT&T'S GROUPS WILL COMPETE WITH EACH OTHER AND EACH GROUP'S RESULTS MAY BE
MATERIALLY ADVERSELY IMPACTED BY CONFUSION IN THE MARKETPLACE DUE TO MULTIPLE
USES OF THE AT&T BRAND

     AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T Business Services Group, AT&T Wireless Group and
AT&T Consumer Services Group all are in the communications business and may
compete with each other under some circumstances. None of the groups is
prohibited from competing with the other groups, although their use of the AT&T
brand in these circumstances may be restricted. All groups' use of the AT&T
brand in many of these circumstances will be subject to guidelines intended to
reduce customer confusion. Nevertheless, the multiplicity of AT&T-branded
offerings may lead to confusion in the marketplace concerning the groups,
resulting in potential competitive disadvantage and/or devaluation of the AT&T
brand.

FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF, AT&T BROADBAND CORP. COULD INCUR MATERIAL TAX
LIABILITIES IN CONNECTION WITH CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

     AT&T Broadband Corp. may incur material federal income tax liabilities as a
result of certain issuances of shares or change of control transactions with
respect to AT&T Broadband Corp., Liberty Media Corporation, AT&T Wireless
Services, Inc. or AT&T Communications Services, Inc. Under the Code, a
split-off/spin-off that is otherwise tax-free may be taxable to the distributing
company (i.e., AT&T Broadband Corp.) if, as a result of certain transactions
occurring generally within a two-year period after the split-off/spin-off,
non-historic shareholders acquire 50% or more of the distributing company or the
spun-off company. Transactions with respect to AT&T Broadband Corp. could cause
all three split-offs/spin-offs to be taxable to AT&T Broadband Corp. Under
separate intercompany agreements between AT&T Broadband and each of Liberty
Media Corporation, AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. and AT&T Communications
Services, Inc., AT&T Broadband Corp. generally will be entitled to
indemnification from the spun-off company for any liability that results from
the split-off/spin-off failing to qualify as a tax free transaction, unless, in
the case of AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. and AT&T Communications Services, Inc.,
such liability was caused by post split-off/spin-off transactions with respect
to the stock or assets of AT&T Broadband Corp.

     If a subsequent transaction were to cause one or more of the
split-offs/spin-offs to be taxable to AT&T Broadband Corp., such tax liability
could have a material adverse effect on AT&T Broadband Corp. To the extent AT&T
Broadband Corp. is entitled to an indemnity with respect to such liability, AT&T
Broadband Corp. would be required to collect such claim on an unsecured basis.
Furthermore, these rules could effectively delay or prevent a merger, change of
control, or other strategic or capital raising transactions involving the
issuance of equity by AT&T Broadband Corp.

                                        45
   52

FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF, AT&T BROADBAND CORP. WILL BE LIABLE FOR HISTORICAL AT&T
LIABILITIES FROM WHICH AT&T BROADBAND CORP. IS NOT RELEASED, EVEN IF NOT
ALLOCATED TO AT&T BROADBAND GROUP

     Following the spin-off, AT&T Broadband Corp., as historical AT&T, will be
burdened with any AT&T liabilities from which AT&T Broadband Corp. is not
released, even if not allocated to AT&T Broadband Group. For example, AT&T has a
number of contractual obligations and liabilities, as well agreements governing
financial instruments, such as long-term indebtedness, guarantees and letters of
credit. To the extent these agreements do not permit the transfer and assumption
of the underlying liabilities and the release of AT&T Broadband Corp., AT&T will
have to seek the consents of the counterparties to effectuate such transfer,
assumption and release. The counterparties may be unwilling to provide such
consents, in which case AT&T Broadband Corp. would remain liable for these
liabilities to third parties. AT&T Broadband Corp. will be indemnified by AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. for liabilities that are allocated to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. but not transferred. However, to the extent AT&T
Broadband Corp. is entitled to an indemnity with respect to these liabilities,
AT&T Broadband Corp. would be required to collect these claims on an unsecured
basis.

AT&T AND ITS GROUPS MAY BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY AT&T'S INCREASED
OVERALL DEBT LEVELS

     AT&T currently is pursuing various measures to seek to reduce its debt
level. However, if these efforts cannot be completed successfully or at levels,
on the terms and within the time frame contemplated, or if AT&T's liquidity
needs increase as a result of further revenue or margin deterioration, AT&T's
financial condition, and that of its groups, would be materially adversely
affected. AT&T and its groups would be materially adversely affected by a
weakening of the overall market for corporate credit or ratings downgrades.
AT&T's current debt level itself may materially adversely affect the company and
each of its groups by impairing their respective financial flexibility, ability
to pursue acquisitions or make capital expenditures and by otherwise impacting
investment decisions that could materially impair each group's growth and
ability to compete.

     AT&T and its groups may not be able to obtain financing on terms that are
acceptable to it. AT&T's debt ratings have been under review by rating agencies.
As a result of this review, AT&T's ratings have been either downgraded and/or
put on credit watch with negative outlook. These actions will result in an
increased cost of future borrowings and can limit access to financing. AT&T's
failure to complete the restructuring plan as contemplated may impact its
liquidity.

     At December 31, 2000, AT&T had total indebtedness of approximately $65
billion with the short-term portion of that at $31.9 billion. AT&T's ability to
meet these obligations depends upon its credit ratings, market conditions and
business results. AT&T continues to investigate and negotiate other financing
alternatives including the monetization of publicly held securities, sales of
certain non-strategic assets and investments, and securitization of certain
accounts receivable, as well as a $6.5 billion debt offering by AT&T Wireless
Services, Inc. in the first quarter 2001. AT&T has increased its $10 billion
line of credit to $25 billion, which was subsequently reduced to $17.5 billion
following the NTT DoCoMo, Inc., or DoCoMo, investment, the AT&T Wireless
Services, Inc. debt offering and the sale of its interest in Japan Telecom. In
addition, AT&T plans to retire a portion of the short-term debt with all or a
part of the funds from a planned 2001 offering of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock although that offering may not occur as expected. AT&T also plans in the
future to dispose of its interests in TWE and Cablevision as well as its
retained interest in AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. (except for approximately $3
billion in shares of AT&T Wireless Services, Inc.).

                                        46
   53

AT&T AND ITS GROUPS MAY BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY FURTHER RATINGS
DOWNGRADES

     AT&T's senior debt ratings and two of its short-term debt ratings were
reduced in late 2000 by Standard & Poor's Rating Services to A and A1; by
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. to A2 and P1; and by Fitch, Inc. to A- and F1.
Both AT&T's short-term and long-term ratings remain under review for further
downgrade at Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service.

     Late last year, AT&T initiated a debt reduction plan, against which it has
continued to make progress. However, at the same time, AT&T has seen
deterioration in the results of its core communication services businesses. It
is unclear as to how the rating agencies will balance these developments in
their ratings assessments, but there is a material risk that AT&T could be
further downgraded. We currently are in the process of reviewing the financial
results and long-term financial projections of the AT&T groups with the rating
agencies. Given that our ratings remain under review at Standard & Poor's and
Moody's Investors Services, further ratings actions could occur at any time.

     If AT&T were to be further downgraded, access to capital could be disrupted
and the cost of capital would likely increase. AT&T has access to the commercial
paper market today which is sufficient to satisfy its short-term borrowing
needs. In the event of a further short-term rating downgrade or downgrades, the
level of issuance capacity available to AT&T would likely contract and could be
exceeded by our short-term borrowing needs. In this case, AT&T could access the
$25 billion bank credit facility put in place on December 28, 2000 to serve as a
commercial paper back-up source of liquidity. The $25 billion bank credit
facility was reduced to $17.5 billion during May 2001 as we made progress in our
deleveraging efforts. The cost of any short-term borrowing under the bank
facility would likely be higher than the cost of commercial paper borrowings for
AT&T today, and could be even higher depending upon market conditions. In
addition, the access to this bank facility extends only until December 28, 2001
and could be reduced to as low as $10 billion if we continue to make progress in
our deleveraging efforts. To the extent that the combined outstanding short-term
borrowings under the bank credit facility and AT&T's commercial paper program
were to exceed the market capacity for such borrowings at the expiration of the
bank credit facility, AT&T's continued liquidity would depend upon our ability
to reduce such short-term debt through a combination of capital market
borrowings, asset sales, operational cash generation, capital expenditure
reduction and other means. Our ability to achieve such objectives is subject to
a risk of execution and such execution could materially impact AT&T's
operational results. In addition, the cost of any capital market financing could
be significantly in excess of AT&T's historical financing costs. Also, AT&T
could suffer negative banking, investor, and public relations repercussions if
we were to draw upon the bank facility, which is intended to serve as a back-up
source of liquidity only. Such impacts could cause further deterioration in our
cost and access to capital.

     Furthermore, according to the terms of the bank credit facility, AT&T's
ability to split off AT&T Wireless Group is contingent upon AT&T's senior debt
rating, as determined by Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service, not
falling below BBB+ and Baa1, respectively. Failure to split off AT&T Wireless
Group by early 2002 would permit DoCoMo to elect to require AT&T to repurchase
its interest in AT&T for an aggregate purchase price of $9.8 billion plus a
predetermined rate of interest, which could further limit the availability and
increase the cost of financing.

                              THE SPECIAL MEETING

GENERAL

     We are mailing this proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card
beginning           , 2001 to holders of AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group
tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group
preferred tracking stock in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our
board of directors for use at the special meeting. We solicit proxies to give
all shareholders on the record date an opportunity to vote on matters that will
come before the special meeting. This procedure is necessary because
shareholders live in all states and abroad and many may not be able to attend
the special meeting. You can vote or let us vote your shares of AT&T common
stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock or
AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock only if you are present in person
or represented by proxy. A form of proxy is being provided to holders of AT&T
common stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking
stock and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock with this proxy
statement. Information with respect to the execution and revocation of proxies
is provided under "-- Proxies; Revocability of Proxies; Cost of Solicitation."

     Registered shareholders (those that hold shares directly or through AT&T
plans rather than through a bank or broker) can simplify their voting and save
AT&T expense by calling           or voting via the Internet at           .
Telephone and Internet voting information is provided on the proxy card. A
Control Number is designed to verify shareholders' identities and allow them to
vote their shares and confirm that their voting instructions have been properly
recorded. The Control Number is located above the shareholder's name and address
in the lower left section of the proxy card. If you hold your shares through a
bank or broker, you will receive separate instructions on the form you receive.
Although most banks and brokers now offer telephone and Internet voting,
availability and specific processes will depend on their voting arrangements.

     At the special meeting, holders of AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group
tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group
preferred tracking stock eligible to vote will be asked to consider and vote
upon approval and adoption of each of the charter amendment proposals and the
incentive plan proposals and the ratification and approval of the spin-off
proposal. For more information, see "The Broadband Charter Amendment Proposal,"
"The Consumer Services Charter Amendment Proposal," "The Incentive Plan
Proposals" and "The Spin-off Proposal."

DATE, TIME AND PLACE OF THE SPECIAL MEETING; RECORD DATE

     The special meeting is scheduled to be held at      a.m., local time, on
             ,           , 2001, at      . Our board of directors has fixed the
close of business on              as the record date for determination of
holders of AT&T common stock and holders of           entitled to notice of and
to vote at the special meeting. On           , 2001, there were outstanding
          shares of AT&T common stock and           shares of AT&T Wireless
Group tracking stock,           shares of Class A Liberty Media Group common
stock,           shares of Class B Liberty Media Group common stock and
          shares of AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock.

     We expect that representatives from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent
accountants for AT&T, will be present at the special meeting, have the
opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and be available to respond to
appropriate questions.

VOTE REQUIRED; QUORUM

     Approval of each of the charter amendment proposals requires a majority of
the combined voting power of all outstanding shares of AT&T common stock,
Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T
Wireless Group preferred tracking stock, voting together as a class, to vote in
its favor. Approval of each of the incentive plan proposals requires a majority
of the

                                        48
   55

votes cast by all outstanding shares of AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group
tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group
preferred tracking stock, voting together as a class, to vote in its favor. For
the separation and the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., we are
also seeking the affirmative vote of a majority of the combined voting power of
all outstanding shares of AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock,
AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking
stock, voting together as a class. Each share of AT&T common stock has one vote
on each matter properly brought before the special meeting. Each share of Class
B Liberty Media Group tracking stock has 0.375 of a vote, each share of Class A
Liberty Media Group tracking stock has 0.0375 of a vote, each share of AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stock has 0.5 of a vote, and each share of AT&T Wireless
Group preferred tracking stock has 250 votes on each of these matters. If we
complete our planned split-offs of Liberty Media Group and AT&T Wireless Group
prior to the record date for determining shareholders eligible to vote on the
proposals, shares of Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock will not be
eligible to vote on the proposals.

     The presence, either in person or by proxy, of holders of 40% of the shares
entitled to vote on the proposals to be presented to shareholders at the special
meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum at the special meeting. Shares of
AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock represented by a
properly completed proxy will be treated as present at the special meeting for
purposes of determining a quorum, without regard to whether the proxy is marked
as casting a vote or abstaining. See "-- Proxies; Revocability of Proxies; Cost
of Solicitation" for more information.

PROXIES; REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES; COST OF SOLICITATION

     If a shareholder attends the special meeting, the shareholder may vote by
ballot. However, many shareholders may be unable to attend the special meeting.
Therefore, our board of directors is soliciting proxies so that each holder of
AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock at the close of
business on the record date has the opportunity to vote on the proposals to be
considered at the special meeting.

     Registered shareholders can simplify their voting and save us expense by
calling 1-800-     or by voting via the Internet at           . We provide
telephone and Internet voting information on the proxy card. A Control Number,
located above the shareholder's name and address on the lower left of the proxy
card, is designed to verify the shareholder's identity, allow the shareholder to
vote the shareholder's shares and confirm that we have properly recorded the
shareholder's voting instructions.

     If you do not choose to vote by telephone or Internet, you still may return
your proxy card, properly signed, and we will vote the shares in accordance with
your directions. You can specify your choices by marking the appropriate boxes
on your proxy card. If you sign and return your proxy card without specifying
choices, we will vote the shares as recommended by our board of directors.
Abstentions marked on your proxy card are voted neither FOR nor AGAINST, but we
count these shares in determining a quorum for each of the proposals.
Abstentions have the effect of a vote against the charter amendment proposals
and the spin-off proposal and have no effect on the incentive plan proposals. IF
YOU DO VOTE BY TELEPHONE OR VIA THE INTERNET, IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO RETURN YOUR
PROXY CARD.

     If you wish to give your proxy to someone other than the Proxy Committee,
you must cross out all three names appearing on your proxy card and insert the
name of another individual or individuals (not more than three). The individual
or individuals representing you must then present your signed proxy card at the
special meeting.

     The proxy card also confers discretionary authority on the individuals
appointed by our board of directors and named on the proxy card to vote the
shares represented by the proxy card on any other matter that is properly
presented for action at the special meeting. No proxies instructing that they be

                                        49
   56

voted AGAINST or ABSTAIN from voting on the charter amendment proposals, the
incentive plan proposals or the spin-off proposal will be voted in favor of any
adjournment of the special meeting to solicit additional proxies. You may revoke
your proxy at any time before it is voted at the special meeting by executing a
later-dated proxy by telephone, via the Internet or mail, by voting by ballot at
the special meeting, or by filing an instrument of revocation with the
inspectors of election in care of the Vice President -- Law and Secretary of
AT&T.

     IF YOU HOLD YOUR SHARES THROUGH A BANK OR BROKER, FOLLOW THE VOTING
INSTRUCTIONS ON THE FORM YOU RECEIVE. BROKER NON-VOTES WILL BE TREATED AS SHARES
OF AT&T COMMON STOCK THAT ARE PRESENT AND ENTITLED TO VOTE AT THE SPECIAL
MEETING FOR PURPOSES OF DETERMINING WHETHER A QUORUM EXISTS AND WILL HAVE THE
SAME EFFECT AS VOTES AGAINST APPROVAL OF EACH OF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSALS
AND THE SPIN-OFF PROPOSAL AND WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE APPROVAL OF THE
INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSALS. THE AVAILABILITY OF TELEPHONE AND INTERNET VOTING WILL
DEPEND ON THE BANK'S OR BROKER'S VOTING PROCESSES.

     YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. WE URGE YOU TO VOTE BY TELEPHONE, VIA THE INTERNET,
OR BY SIGNING AND RETURNING THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY CARD, WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN
TO ATTEND THE SPECIAL MEETING. If you do attend the special meeting, you may
vote by ballot, thereby canceling any proxy previously given.

     The cost of soliciting proxies in the accompanying form will be borne by
AT&T. In addition to solicitations by mail, a number of regular employees of
AT&T and of its subsidiaries may solicit proxies in person or by telephone. AT&T
has retained           to aid in the solicitation of proxies, at an estimated
cost of $          plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. In
addition, AT&T has retained           to answer telephone inquiries from
shareholders for a variable fee equal to $          per call, depending on the
type of call.

VOTING SHARES HELD IN DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND SAVINGS PLANS

     If you are a participant in the AT&T Shareowner Dividend Reinvestment and
Stock Purchase Plan or the AT&T Employee Stock Purchase Plan, your proxy card
will represent the number of full shares in either of those accounts on the
record date as well as shares registered in your name. If you are an employee
shareholder participating in the AT&T Employee Stock Ownership Plan, the AT&T
Long Term Savings Plan for Management Employees, the AT&T Long Term Savings and
Security Plan, the AT&T Retirement Savings and Profit Sharing Plan, the AT&T of
Puerto Rico, Inc. Long Term Savings Plan for Management Employees, the AT&T of
Puerto Rico, Inc. Long Term Savings and Security Plan, the Liberty Media 401(k)
Savings Plan, the Liberty Media 401(k) Savings Plan of Puerto Rico, the Long
Term Savings Plan (for AT&T Broadband & Internet Services), or the Long Term
Savings Plan -- San Francisco (for AT&T Broadband & Internet Services), your
proxy card also will serve as a voting instruction for the trustees of these
plans for accounts registered in the same name. The trustees of these trust
plans will not vote shares for which they have not received proxy instructions,
except for shares in the employer shares fund in the AT&T Long Term Savings and
Security Plan, which shares the trustee will vote in its discretion.

SPECIAL MEETING ADMISSION

     IF YOU ARE A REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER AND PLAN TO ATTEND THE SPECIAL MEETING
IN PERSON, PLEASE DETACH AND RETAIN THE ADMISSION TICKET AND MAP THAT WE HAVE
ATTACHED TO YOUR PROXY CARD. IF YOU CHOOSE TO VOTE BY MAIL AND ALSO PLAN TO
ATTEND THE SPECIAL MEETING, PLEASE BE SURE TO MARK THE "SPECIAL MEETING" BOX

CONFIDENTIAL VOTING

     For many years, we have had a confidential voting policy. In 1998, we
formalized this policy by amending our by-laws so that all proxies and other
voting materials, including telephone and Internet voting, are kept confidential
and are not disclosed to AT&T or its officers and directors, subject to standard
exceptions. These documents are available for examination only by the inspectors
of election and certain personnel associated with processing proxy cards and
tabulating the vote. This new by-law provision cannot be amended, rescinded or
waived, except by a shareholder vote. One independent inspector of election, an
officer of The Corporation Trust Company, has been appointed.

RECOMMENDATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Our board of directors has approved each of the charter amendment
proposals, the incentive plan proposals and the spin-off proposal and recommends
that shareholders vote FOR each of the charter amendment proposals, the
incentive plan proposals and the spin-off proposal.

                    REASONS FOR THE RESTRUCTURING PROPOSALS

     The creation of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock and the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. are part of our previously announced plan to restructure AT&T. Our board of
directors recommended these actions based on its view that AT&T's restructuring
plan would promote greater market recognition of the value of the various AT&T
businesses. Our board of directors considered the following factors among others
in approving, and recommending that shareholders approve, the charter amendment
proposals and the spin-off.

WE EXPECT AT&T'S RESTRUCTURING PLAN TO CREATE MORE FOCUSED AND FLEXIBLE
MANAGEMENT TEAMS BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER THE SPIN-OFF

     If the proposals are approved and implemented, we believe that each of our
groups -- AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business
Services Group -- will be a smaller, but more focused and flexible, business
unit, in a better position to implement its respective business strategy and
serve its customers more effectively though quicker decision making, more
efficient deployment of resources, increased operational agility and enhanced
responsiveness to customers and markets and technological changes.

GREATER MARKET RECOGNITION OF VALUE

     AT&T believes that issuing securities intended to reflect the separate
performance of each of AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group and
AT&T Business Services Group will result in greater market recognition and
realization of the value, individually and collectively, of AT&T and its
distinct lines of business represented by each of the groups and allow the
market to evaluate each group's results against those of its competitors.
Similarly, following the spin-off, as separate, stand-alone entities, AT&T
Broadband Corp. and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will offer more focused
investment opportunities than those presented by a diversified AT&T. For
example, we believe that the fundamental structural decline in long distance
revenue and profit makes it harder for the market to discern the growth
potential of our broadband and data/IP services businesses. We expect that this
will promote a more efficient equity valuation of both AT&T Broadband Corp. and
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. than if both were to be valued together as a
part of a larger, diversified company.

GREATER FINANCIAL AND STRATEGIC FLEXIBILITY

     AT&T believes that the creation of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will provide AT&T (and, later, AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.) with greater financial flexibility. AT&T expects
that each tracking stock will assist its related group in meeting its capital
needs by creating an additional publicly traded equity security that the group
can use to raise capital. In addition, the creation of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock prior to the
spin-off will allow AT&T to issue AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock in potential group-specific acquisitions
and investments prior to the spin-off. This would allow shareholders of an
entity that AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group acquires the
opportunity to participate more directly in the success of the business in which
that entity engages rather than participating in the much larger and more
diversified AT&T enterprise.

     In addition, the restructuring plan also is intended to permit each of our
businesses to target a debt and equity profile consistent with its own needs and
comparable companies in its industry and to prioritize its capital and invest in
its own growth.

                                        52
   59

     Following the spin-off, with enhanced market recognition of the value of
each of AT&T Broadband Corp. and AT&T Communications Services, Inc., we expect
each company to be better positioned to pursue strategic acquisitions to grow
its businesses.

INCREASED SHAREHOLDER CHOICE

     A corporation typically uses tracking stocks in situations where the
corporation has two or more businesses that have different investor profiles. In
this case, AT&T Broadband Group is a higher-risk, higher-growth potential
business focused on a distinct set of products and services, which contrast with
the more mature core businesses of AT&T Consumer Services Group. AT&T Consumer
Services Group consists of businesses offering a particular set of services and
targeting a particular type of customer, distinct from AT&T Business Services
Group. AT&T believes that the creation and issuance of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will provide
investors with greater choice among the different types of investment currently
embedded in AT&T.

     The creation of the tracking stocks is expected to be followed by the
spin-off, which will create two separate, distinct companies with different
investor profiles. Thus, the spin-off is intended to provide investors with an
opportunity to make an investment in different, separate entities and choose the
one(s) better suited to their investment needs without necessarily investing in
any other one.

REDUCE INDEBTEDNESS

     AT&T believes that the creation and public offering of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock will raise funds that will allow AT&T to reduce its outstanding
indebtedness. By reducing indebtedness, AT&T intends to improve its financial
position and its credit rating.

MANAGEMENT INCENTIVES

     PRE-SPIN-OFF

     We believe the existence of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock will permit the creation of more
effective management incentive and retention programs. In particular, we will be
able to grant stock options and other incentive awards to employees of each
group that are tied more directly to the performance of that group.

     POST-SPIN-OFF

     We expect the spin-off to enhance each of AT&T Broadband Corp.'s and AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s employees' motivation and to strengthen each
company's management's focus through incentive compensation programs tied to the
market performance of its separate common stock. The spin-off will enable each
of AT&T Broadband Corp. and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. to offer its
employees compensation more directly linked to the performance of its business
than if both were a part of a single corporation, which we expect will enhance
each company's ability to attract and retain qualified personnel.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

     In addition, our board of directors considered other factors relating to
the charter amendment proposals and the spin-off, including that we expect that
implementation of the charter amendments and the completion of the spin-off will
not be taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes to us, to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. or to our shareholders.

                                        53
   60

     Our board of directors also considered the following potential adverse
consequences of the creation of the tracking stocks and the completion of the
spin-off, including the following:

     - with regard to the tracking stocks, our board of directors considered
       that:

       -- there can be no assurance as to the degree to which the market price
          of the tracking stocks will reflect the separate performance of the
          respective groups, and

       -- holders of common stock and of the tracking stocks will continue to
          bear the risks associated with an investment in a single corporation
          and all of AT&T's businesses, assets and liabilities;

     - with regard to the spin-off, our board of directors considered that:

       -- there can be no assurance as to the market for, or the trading prices
          of, AT&T Broadband Corp. common stock and AT&T Communications
          Services, Inc. common stock following the spin-off,

       -- the lack of diversification and smaller size could affect each of AT&T
          Broadband Corp.'s and AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s ability to
          achieve economies of scale, could create capital and size constraints
          that did not previously exist, could create increased costs due to
          decreased purchasing power and could limit each company's ability to
          obtain financing, and

       -- as more focused companies, the earnings of each of AT&T Broadband
          Corp. and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will be more closely tied
          to its particular performance and its industry performance and as a
          result their securities could be subject to greater volatility.

     Our board of directors also considered the risk factors related to the
creation of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock, described under "Risk Factors Relating to the Tracking Stock
Amendments," and the spin-off described under "Risk Factors Relating to the
Spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc."

     Our board of directors believes, however, that, on balance, the positive
aspects of the tracking stocks and the spin-off outweigh any potentially adverse
consequences.

RECOMMENDATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Our board of directors has approved each of the charter amendment
proposals, the incentive plan proposals and the spin-off proposal and recommends
that shareholders vote FOR each of the charter amendment proposals, the
incentive plan proposals and the spin-off proposal.

                    THE BROADBAND CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

     The description of the material terms of the Broadband charter amendment
proposal set forth below is not complete. We qualify this description by
reference to the form of proposed charter amendment, a copy of which we have
attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement. We urge all shareholders to read
it in its entirety.

GENERAL

     We are proposing the following amendment to our charter, which we refer to
as the Broadband charter amendment proposal:

     Broadband Group tracking stock amendment -- an amendment to create a new
     class of common stock called Broadband Group common stock, par value $1.00
     per share, which we intend to reflect the financial performance and
     economic value of our broadband services business. We refer to this stock
     as "AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock."

     Approval of the Broadband charter amendment proposal requires a majority of
the combined voting power of all outstanding shares of AT&T common stock,
Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and AT&T
Wireless Group preferred tracking stock to vote in its favor. OUR BOARD OF
DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR APPROVAL. Any shares not voted,
whether by abstention, broker non-vote or otherwise, have the effect of a vote
against the Broadband charter amendment proposal.

BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AMENDMENT

     The Broadband Group tracking stock amendment would, among other things:

     - Define "AT&T Broadband Group," the financial performance and economic
       value of which we intend AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock to reflect.
       AT&T Broadband Group will consist of the assets and liabilities shown in
       the combined balance sheets of AT&T Broadband Group and will include:

        -- AT&T's cable television and cable telephony customers;

        -- AT&T's cable television and cable telephony licenses that solely
           support cable telephony;

        -- AT&T's cable television and cable telephony systems and operations
           that solely support cable telephony;

        -- AT&T's cable television and cable telephony support infrastructure,
           including ordering, provisioning, billing and care;

        -- AT&T's interest in partnerships and affiliates providing cable
           television services, such as Cablevision and TWE; and

        -- AT&T's interest in partnerships and affiliates providing high-speed
           cable Internet services, such as Excite@Home.

     - Establish the terms of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, consisting of
                      authorized shares and entitling the holders of AT&T
       Broadband Group tracking stock to        of a vote per share, voting as
       one class with all other classes and series of AT&T common stock and
       preferred stock of AT&T with respect to all matters to be voted upon by
       AT&T shareholders, except as otherwise required by the NYBCL or by the
       terms of any other class or series of AT&T capital stock.

     We include a more complete description of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock under "-- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock Amendment."

RECOMMENDATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED THE BROADBAND CHARTER AMENDMENT
PROPOSAL AND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE BROADBAND CHARTER AMENDMENT
PROPOSAL.

TERMS OF THE BROADBAND GROUP TRACKING STOCK AMENDMENT

     GENERAL

     If we adopt the Broadband Group tracking stock amendment, we will amend our
charter to authorize                billion shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock. If we adopt the Consumer Services Group tracking stock
amendment, we will amend our charter to authorize      billion shares of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock. Currently, 16.5 billion shares of AT&T
capital stock are authorized, consisting of 100 million shares of preferred
stock, of which 812,511.778 million are shares of AT&T Wireless Group preferred
tracking stock, par value $1.00 per share, and 16.4 billion shares of common
stock, of which 6.0 billion are shares of AT&T common stock, par value $1.00 per
share, 4.0 billion are shares of Class A Liberty Media Group common stock, par
value $1.00 per share, 400 million are shares of Class B Liberty Media Group
common stock, par value $1.00 per share, and 6.0 billion are shares of AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stock, par value $1.00. We refer to Class A Liberty
Media Group common stock and Class B Liberty Media Group common stock together
as Liberty Media Group tracking stock. We sometimes refer to AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock together as AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stocks. As of                , 2001, we had outstanding
               shares of AT&T common stock,                shares of Class A
Liberty Media Group tracking stock,                shares of Class B Liberty
Media Group tracking stock,                shares of AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock and                shares of AT&T Wireless Group preferred
tracking stock.

     EFFECT UPON OTHER AT&T TRACKING STOCKS

     The Broadband Group tracking stock amendment would not affect the
substantive provisions relating to Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

     AT&T BROADBAND GROUP

     We intend AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock to reflect the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Broadband Group. The Broadband Group
tracking stock amendment defines "AT&T Broadband Group" generally as the
interest of AT&T or any of its subsidiaries in all of the businesses, assets and
liabilities reflected in the unaudited combined financial statements of AT&T
Broadband Group, dated December 31, 2000, as included in this proxy statement,
including any successor to AT&T Broadband Group by merger, consolidation or sale
of all or substantially all of its assets. The Broadband Group tracking stock
amendment contains adjustments to the definition of "AT&T Broadband Group" to
reflect, among other things, related assets and liabilities (including
contingent liabilities), net income and net losses arising after the date of
these financial statements, contributions and allocations of assets, liabilities
and businesses between the groups and acquisitions and dispositions.

     The retained portion of the value of AT&T Broadband Group represented by
AT&T common stock will be included in AT&T Business Services Group. See "-- AT&T
Broadband Group Allocation Fraction."

     AT&T BROADBAND GROUP ALLOCATION FRACTION

     The Broadband Group tracking stock amendment defines the "AT&T Broadband
Group allocation fraction" to represent the interest in the financial
performance and economic value of

                                        56
   63

AT&T Broadband Group reflected by AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock issued to
the public. At any time that all of the interest in the financial performance
and economic value of AT&T Broadband Group is not reflected by the outstanding
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, this fraction will be used, in effect, to
allocate to AT&T Business Services Group the right to participate in any
dividend, distribution or liquidation payment made to holders of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock. This right to participate will reflect the retained
portion of value of AT&T Business Services Group in AT&T Broadband Group. At any
time that all of the interest in the financial performance and economic value of
AT&T Broadband Group is fully reflected by the outstanding AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock, this fraction will equal one.

     Subject to the criteria we describe below, this fraction is subject to
adjustment from time to time as our board of directors deems appropriate:

     - to reflect subdivisions (by stock split or otherwise) and combinations
       (by reverse stock split or otherwise) of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
       stock and stock dividends payable in shares of AT&T Broadband Group
       tracking stock;

     - to reflect the fair market value of contributions or allocations by AT&T
       of cash, property or other assets or liabilities from other AT&T groups
       to AT&T Broadband Group (or vice versa), or of cash or property or other
       assets or liabilities of other AT&T groups to, or for the benefit of,
       employees of AT&T Broadband Group in connection with employee benefit
       plans or arrangements of AT&T or any of its subsidiaries (or vice versa);

     - to reflect the number of shares of AT&T capital stock contributed to, or
       for the benefit of, employees of AT&T Broadband Group in connection with
       benefit plans or arrangements of AT&T or any of its subsidiaries;

     - to reflect repurchases by AT&T of shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
       stock for the account of AT&T Broadband Group;

     - to reflect issuances of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock for the
       account of AT&T Broadband Group;

     - to reflect dividends or other distributions to holders of AT&T Broadband
       Group tracking stock, to the extent no payment is made to AT&T Business
       Services Group; and

     - under other circumstances as our board of directors determines
       appropriate to reflect the economic substance of any other event or
       circumstance.

     In addition, in determining the percentage interest of holders of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock in any particular dividend or other distribution,
we will reduce the economic interest of holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock to reflect dilution arising from shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock reserved for issuance upon conversion, exercise or exchange of other
securities that are entitled to participate in this dividend or other
distribution.

     The Broadband Group tracking stock amendment provides that any adjustment
of this kind must be made in a manner that our board of directors determines to
be fair and equitable to holders of AT&T common stock and AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock. In the event that any assets or other property are acquired by
other AT&T group(s) and allocated or contributed to AT&T Broadband Group, the
consideration paid by the other AT&T group(s) to acquire these assets or other
property will be presumed to be its "fair market value" as of its acquisition.
Any adjustment to the AT&T Broadband Group allocation fraction made by our board
of directors in accordance with these principles will be at the sole discretion
of our board of directors and will be final and binding on all shareholders.

     VOTING RIGHTS

     Currently, holders of AT&T common stock have one vote per share, holders of
Class B Liberty Media Group tracking stock have 0.375 of a vote per share,
holders of Class A Liberty Media Group tracking stock have 0.0375 of a vote per
share, holders of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock have

                                        57
   64

0.5 of a vote per share and holders of AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking
stock have 250 votes per share. This voting power is subject to adjustment for
stock splits, stock dividends and combinations, including any distribution of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock to holders of AT&T common stock.

     Each outstanding share of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock initially
will have           of a vote. The voting rights of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock will be subject to adjustments to reflect stock splits, reverse
stock splits, stock dividends or certain stock distributions with respect to
AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, Liberty Media Group
tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock.

     Except as otherwise required by New York law or any special voting rights
of any class or series of AT&T preferred stock or common shares, holders of
shares of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, each other
class of AT&T common shares, if any, that is entitled to vote, Class A Liberty
Media Group tracking stock and Class B Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock and
holders of shares of each class or series of AT&T preferred stock, if any, that
is entitled to vote, will vote as one class with respect to all matters to be
voted on by shareholders of AT&T. No separate class vote of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock will be required, except as required by the NYBCL.

     DIVIDENDS

     General.  Provided that AT&T has sufficient assets to pay a dividend under
applicable law, after excluding the available dividend amount relating to
Liberty Media Group, AT&T Wireless Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group, the
Broadband Group tracking stock amendment provides that dividends on AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock are limited to an available dividend amount that
is designed to be equivalent to the amount that would legally be available for
dividends on that stock if AT&T Broadband Group were a stand-alone entity.
Dividends on AT&T common stock are limited to the amount of legally available
funds for all of AT&T less the sum of the available dividend amount for AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock, the available dividend amount for Liberty Media
Group tracking stock, the available dividend amount for AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stocks and the available dividend amount for AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock.

     AT&T does not expect to pay any dividends on shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock. If and when our board of directors determines to pay any
dividends on shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, the AT&T Groups
policy statement provides that this determination also will be subject to
factors similar to those that we describe above with respect to the payment of
dividends on each class of AT&T common stock.

     Discrimination among classes of common shares.  The Broadband Group
tracking stock amendment does not provide for mandatory dividends. Provided that
there are sufficient assets to pay a dividend on a class of stock as described
under "--General," our board of directors will have the sole authority and
discretion to declare and pay dividends (or to refrain from declaring or paying
dividends), in equal or unequal amounts, on AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stocks, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, any other class of
AT&T common shares or any two or more of these classes. Subject to not exceeding
the applicable available dividend amount, our board of directors has this power
regardless of the relative available dividend amounts, prior dividend amounts
declared, liquidation rights or any other factor.

     SHARE DISTRIBUTIONS

     Subject to the provisions of Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stocks and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock,
AT&T may declare and pay a distribution consisting of shares of AT&T common
stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or any other securities of AT&T or
any other person to holders of AT&T common stock or AT&T

                                        58
   65

Broadband Group tracking stock only in accordance with the provisions described
below. We refer to this type of distribution as a "share distribution."

     Distributions on AT&T common stock or AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock.  Subject to any limitations imposed by the terms of Liberty Media Group
tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock, AT&T may declare and pay a share distribution to holders
of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or any other class of
AT&T common shares consisting of any securities of AT&T, any subsidiary of AT&T
or any other person. However, securities attributable to a group may be
distributed to holders of another group only for consideration. In the case of
shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock distributed to holders of AT&T
common stock, the consideration may consist, in whole or in part, of a decrease
in the inter-group portion of value, if any, held by AT&T Business Services
Group in AT&T Broadband Group.

     Discrimination among classes of AT&T common shares.  The Broadband Group
tracking stock amendment does not provide for mandatory share distributions.
Subject to the restrictions described above or that are in effect regarding
Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock, our board of directors will have the
sole authority and discretion to declare and pay share distributions (or to
refrain from declaring or paying share distributions), in equal or unequal
amounts, on AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, Liberty
Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks, AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock, any other class of AT&T common shares or any two
or more of these classes. Subject to not exceeding the applicable available
dividend amounts, our board of directors has this power regardless of the
relative available dividend amounts, prior share distributions amounts declared,
liquidation rights or any other factor.

     REDEMPTION

     Redemption in exchange for shares of AT&T common stock in connection with
spin-offs and certain transactions at option of our board of directors.  At any
time, if the businesses, assets and liabilities of AT&T Broadband Group are
substantially equivalent to the businesses, assets and liabilities of AT&T (as
would be the case if the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is
completed as proposed), our board of directors, in its sole discretion, may
redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock for shares
of AT&T common stock on a ratio based on the number of shares of AT&T common
stock outstanding, the number of shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
outstanding and the AT&T Broadband Group allocation fraction. In this event,
each share of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock will be redeemed in exchange
for a number of shares of AT&T common stock calculated in a manner intended to
maintain the approximate relative proportional interest in AT&T Broadband Group
of holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T common stock.
Specifically, each share of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock will be redeemed
in exchange for that number of shares of AT&T common stock, calculated to the
nearest 1/10,000, equal to a fraction the numerator of which is:

     - a fraction the numerator of which is the product of (1) the number of
       shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis and (2)
       the AT&T Broadband Group allocation fraction and the denominator of which
       is 1 minus the AT&T Broadband Group allocation fraction;

and the denominator of which is:

     - the number of shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock outstanding
       on a fully diluted basis.

     All calculations of fully diluted shares of AT&T common stock or AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock will be made on the treasury basis in accordance
with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

                                        59
   66

     Other redemptions in exchange for shares of AT&T common stock at option of
our board of directors.  At any time following either the occurrence of
tax-related events or the        anniversary of the date that AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock is initially issued, our board of directors, in its sole
discretion, may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock for shares of AT&T common stock. In this event, each share of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock will be redeemed in exchange for that number of
shares of AT&T common stock, calculated to the nearest 1/10,000, equal to      %
of the ratio of the average market price per share of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock to the average market price per share of AT&T common stock.

     In this case, the average market price per share of AT&T common stock or
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, as the case may be, means the average of
the daily market value per share for such AT&T common stock or AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock for the 40 consecutive trading days ending on the 15th
trading day prior to the date notice of the redemption is mailed to holders of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock.

     In order to redeem AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock on the basis of a
tax-related event, AT&T must obtain the opinion of counsel that, as a result of
an amendment to or change (or prospective change) in a law or an interpretation
of the law that takes place after AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock is issued,
there is more than an insubstantial risk that:

     - any issuance of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock would be treated as a
       sale or other taxable disposition by AT&T or any of its subsidiaries of
       any of the assets, operations or relevant subsidiaries underlying AT&T
       Broadband Group tracking stock;

     - the existence of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock would subject AT&T,
       its subsidiaries or its affiliates, or any of their respective successors
       to the imposition of tax or other adverse tax consequences; or

     - either AT&T common stock or AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock would not
       be treated solely as common stock of AT&T.

     Redemption in exchange for stock of qualifying subsidiaries at option of
our board of directors. The Broadband Group tracking stock amendment also
provides that AT&T may, at any time, redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock in exchange for a specified number of outstanding
shares of common stock of a subsidiary of AT&T that satisfies certain
requirements under the Code and that holds all of the assets and liabilities of
AT&T Broadband Group. We refer to a subsidiary that satisfies these requirements
as a "qualifying subsidiary." This type of redemption only may be made on a pro
rata basis, and must be tax free to the holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock, except with respect to any cash that holders receive in lieu of
fractional shares.

     In this case, we would exchange each share of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock, on a pro rata basis, for an aggregate number of shares of common stock of
the qualifying subsidiary equal to the number of outstanding shares of common
stock of the qualifying subsidiary held by AT&T.

     Redemption in exchange for shares of another tracking stock.  At any time
our board of directors may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock for a new tracking stock of another entity that owns all of the
material assets and liabilities of AT&T Broadband Group. In order to effect a
redemption of this type, the new tracking stock must have substantially the same
terms as those governing AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock as contained in
AT&T's charter and by-laws, including with regard to the definition of "AT&T
Broadband Group." In the event of redemption of this type, the voting rights of
the new tracking stock will be set based on the ratio, over a fixed measurement
period, of the initial trading prices of this new tracking stock to trading
prices of the common stock of the new entity of which the new tracking stock is
a part.

     Redemption in connection with certain significant transactions.  In the
event of a sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition by AT&T in a
transaction or series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of
the properties and assets of AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T generally is required

                                        60
   67

to take one of the following actions, which action will be selected in the sole
discretion of our board of directors:

     - AT&T may redeem each outstanding share of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
       stock in exchange for a number of shares of AT&T common stock (calculated
       to the nearest 1/10,000) equal to           % of the ratio of the average
       market price per share of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock to the
       average market price per share of AT&T common stock. For this purpose,
       the "average market price per share" of AT&T common stock or AT&T
       Broadband Group tracking stock, as the case may be, means the average of
       the daily market value per share for AT&T common stock or AT&T Broadband
       Group tracking stock, respectively, during the 10-trading-day period
       beginning on the 15th trading day following completion of that
       transaction.

     - Subject to limitations, AT&T may declare and pay a dividend in cash
       and/or in securities (other than AT&T common stock) or other property to
       holders of the outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
       equally on a share-for-share basis in an aggregate amount equal to the
       net proceeds of the disposition allocable to AT&T Broadband Group
       tracking stock.

     - Subject to limitations, if the disposition involves the disposition of
       all, not merely substantially all, of the properties and assets of AT&T
       Broadband Group, AT&T may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband
       Group tracking stock in exchange for cash and/or securities or other
       property in an aggregate amount equal to the net proceeds of the
       disposition allocable to AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock.

     - Subject to limitations, if the disposition involves substantially all,
       but not all, of the properties and assets of AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T
       may redeem a number of outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group
       tracking stock in exchange for a redemption price equal to the net
       proceeds of that disposition. The number of shares of AT&T Broadband
       Group tracking stock to be redeemed would be equal to the lesser of (1) a
       number determined by dividing the aggregate amount allocated to the
       redemption of these shares by the average market value of one share of
       AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock during the 10-trading-day period
       beginning on the 15th trading day following the completion of that
       disposition and (2) the total number of outstanding shares of AT&T
       Broadband Group tracking stock.

     - Subject to limitations, AT&T may take a combination of the actions
       described in the preceding bullets whereby AT&T may redeem some shares of
       AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock in exchange for shares of AT&T common
       stock at the exchange rate described in the first bullet above, and use
       an amount equal to a portion of the net proceeds of the disposition
       allocable to AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock to either (1) declare
       and pay a dividend as described in the second bullet above, or (2) redeem
       part or all of the remaining shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
       stock as described in the third or fourth bullet above.

     For purposes of these provisions, "substantially all of the properties and
assets" of AT&T Broadband Group as of any date means a portion of these
properties and assets that represents at least 80% of the fair value of the
properties and assets attributed to AT&T Broadband Group as of that date.

     Certain exceptions.  The provisions described under "-- Redemption in
connection with certain significant transactions" will not apply, and AT&T will
not be required to redeem any securities or make any dividend or other
distribution it would otherwise be required to make, in some circumstances,
including the following:

     - if, in connection with the underlying transaction, our board of directors
       redeems all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock for
       a new tracking stock of

                                        61
   68

       another entity that owns all of the material assets and liabilities of
       AT&T Broadband Group pursuant to "-- Redemption in exchange for shares of
       another tracking stock."

     - if the underlying disposition is conditioned upon the affirmative vote of
       a majority of holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, voting as a
       separate class;

     - if the disposition is in connection with a liquidation of AT&T;

     - if the disposition is to a person or group of which AT&T is the majority
       owner and AT&T Broadband Group receives in exchange primarily equity
       securities of that person or group as consideration;

     - in connection with a spin-off or similar distribution of AT&T's entire
       interest in AT&T Broadband Group to the holders of AT&T Broadband Group
       tracking stock, including a distribution that is made in connection with
       a mandatory redemption as described under "-- Other redemptions in
       exchange for shares of AT&T common stock at option of our board of
       directors" or "-- Redemption in exchange for stock of qualifying
       subsidiaries at option of our board of directors"; and

     - in connection with a "related business transaction," which generally
       means a disposition of all or substantially all of the assets attributed
       to AT&T Broadband Group in which AT&T receives equity securities of an
       entity that engages or proposes to engage primarily in one or more
       businesses similar or complementary to the businesses conducted by AT&T
       Broadband Group prior to that transaction.

     GENERAL PROCEDURES

     Conditions.  With regard to any redemption at the discretion of our board
of directors, our board of directors may, in its discretion, condition the
redemption on the occurrence or failure to occur of any events set forth in the
applicable notice of redemption. Our board of directors will have the right to
waive any of these conditions in its sole discretion.

     Public announcements; notices.  The Broadband Group tracking stock
amendment provides that, in the case of specified dispositions or a redemption,
AT&T will publicly announce or otherwise provide specified information to
holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and, in the case of redemption of
the discretion of our board of directors, give the notice of redemption no fewer
than 15 days prior to the date of redemption.

     Fractional shares.  Our board of directors will not have to issue or
deliver any fractional shares to any holder of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock upon any redemption, dividend or other distribution under the provisions
described under "-- Redemption." Instead of issuing fractional shares, AT&T will
pay cash for the fractional share in an amount equal to the fair market value of
the fractional share, without interest.

     No adjustments for dividends or other distributions.  No adjustments for
dividends will be made upon the exchange of any shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock; except that, if a redemption date with respect to AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock comes after the record date for the payment of a dividend
or other distribution to be paid on AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock but
before the payment or distribution, the registered holders of those shares of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock at the close of business on that record date
will be entitled to receive the dividend or other distribution on the payment
date, notwithstanding the redemption of those shares of stock or AT&T's default
in payment of the dividend or distribution.

     Payment of taxes.  If any person exchanging a certificate representing
shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock wants us to issue a certificate in
a different name than the registered name on the old certificate, that person
must pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of the
certificate in another name, or establish, to the satisfaction of AT&T or its
agent, that the tax has been paid or is not applicable.

                                        62
   69

     LIQUIDATION RIGHTS

     In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of AT&T, whether
voluntary or involuntary, AT&T will first pay or provide for payment of debts
and other liabilities of AT&T, including the liquidation preferences of any
class or series of AT&T preferred stock. Thereafter, holders of the shares of
AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock and any other class of AT&T common shares will share in the
funds of AT&T remaining for distribution to its common shareholders in
proportion to the aggregate market capitalization of the outstanding shares of
each class of stock, as applicable, to the aggregate market capitalization of
all the classes of AT&T common shares. AT&T will calculate the market
capitalizations based on the 20-trading-day period ending on the trading day
prior to the date of the public announcement of the liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of AT&T.

     None of the following, by itself, will constitute a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of AT&T:

     - the consolidation or merger of AT&T with or into any other corporation or
       corporations or the sale, transfer or lease of all or substantially all
       of the assets of AT&T;

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in AT&T Broadband Group being held by
       one or more AT&T Broadband Group subsidiaries and the distribution of
       AT&T Broadband Group subsidiaries, and no other material assets or
       liabilities, to the holders of outstanding AT&T Broadband Group tracking
       stock;

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in Liberty Media Group being held by
       one or more Liberty Media Group subsidiaries and the distribution of
       these Liberty Media Group subsidiaries, and no other material assets or
       liabilities, to the holders of outstanding Liberty Media Group tracking
       stock (but this will be subject to the provisions relating to the
       redemption of shares of Liberty Media Group tracking stock described in
       our charter);

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in AT&T Wireless Group being held by
       one or more AT&T Wireless Group subsidiaries and the distribution of
       these AT&T Wireless Group subsidiaries, and no other material assets or
       liabilities, to the holders of outstanding AT&T Wireless Group tracking
       stock (but this will be subject to the provisions relating to the
       redemption of shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock described in
       our charter); or

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in AT&T Consumer Services Group, if
       created, being held by one or more AT&T Consumer Services Group
       subsidiaries and the distribution of these AT&T Consumer Services Group
       subsidiaries, and no other material assets or liabilities, to the holders
       of outstanding AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock (but this will
       be subject to the provisions relating to the redemption of shares of AT&T
       Consumer Services Group tracking stock described in our charter).

     DETERMINATIONS BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Any determinations made by our board of directors under any provision
described in this section "-- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock
Amendment" will be final and binding on all shareholders of AT&T, except as may
otherwise be required by law. AT&T will prepare a statement of any determination
by our board of directors respecting the fair market value of any properties,
assets or securities, and will file the statement with our Corporate Secretary.

                                        63
   70

     NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

     Holders of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, Liberty
Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock do not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for
any additional shares of AT&T capital stock or other obligations convertible
into or exercisable for shares of capital stock that may hereafter be issued by
AT&T.

THE BROADBAND PUBLIC OFFERING

     THE PUBLIC OFFERING

     We currently intend to issue, in an underwritten public offering, shares of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock representing a portion of the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Broadband Group. We will determine the
amount to be issued based on capital requirements of AT&T and its groups, market
conditions at the time of the public offering and other factors. We currently
expect to issue shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock in the public
offering reflecting no greater than 20% of the economic performance of AT&T
Broadband Group. The proceeds from the public offering may be allocated between
any of the groups or only to one group, which may or may not be the AT&T
Broadband Group.

     TIMING OF THE PUBLIC OFFERING

     We currently expect to complete the public offering later this year,
subject to market and other factors. However, our board of directors reserves
the right to change our current plans with respect to the public offering.

     Our board of directors reserves the right to not create AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock or to not issue AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock once it
is created. In addition, even if we complete the public offering, there is no
guarantee that the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will follow.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO AT&T

     Subject to the discussion below in this section, neither the creation of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock nor the occurrence of the public offering of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock will be taxable to AT&T.

     The conclusions in the preceding paragraph are not free from doubt. These
conclusions assume that AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock is treated as a
class of common stock of AT&T. The filing of consolidated income tax returns by
AT&T together with AT&T Broadband Group also assumes that AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock is treated as a class of common stock of AT&T. While AT&T
believes that, under current law, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock will be
treated as common stock of AT&T, there are no authorities directly on point nor
will AT&T receive an advance ruling from the Internal Revenue Service. There is
a risk that the Internal Revenue Service could assert that AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock is property other than common stock of AT&T. AT&T believes it is
unlikely the Internal Revenue Service would prevail on that view, but no
assurance can be given that the views expressed in the preceding paragraph, if
contested, would be sustained by a court.

EFFECTS OF THE SPIN-OFF OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC.

     Under the terms of the proposed Broadband Group tracking stock amendment,
if the businesses, assets and liabilities of AT&T are substantially equivalent
to the business, assets and liabilities of AT&T Broadband Group, our board of
directors may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock for a number of shares of AT&T common stock intended to maintain the
relative approximate proportional interest in AT&T Broadband Group of the
holders of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T common stock. Following
the spin-off of AT&T

                                        64
   71

Communications Services, Inc., we expect that AT&T will consist of AT&T
Broadband Group. For this reason, following the spin-off, we expect to redeem
all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock for shares of AT&T
common stock, as permitted by the terms of the proposed Broadband Group tracking
stock amendment. See "-- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock
Amendment -- Redemption."

describe under "Relationship among AT&T Groups -- The AT&T Groups Policy
Statement" and our board of directors' fiduciary duties.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

     AT&T Broadband Group operates in the broadband communications industry,
offering video television programming services (both analog and digital),
high-speed cable Internet services and broadband telephony service, in each case
primarily to residential and small business customers. AT&T Broadband Group also
is pursuing other additional services, including VOD and interactive television
that take advantage of the robust broadband network that AT&T Broadband Group
has assembled and constructed.

     Cable television is a service that delivers multiple channels of video and
audio programming to subscribers that pay a monthly fee for the services they
receive. Cable television systems receive video, audio and data signals
transmitted by nearby television broadcast stations, terrestrial microwave relay
services and communications satellites. These signals then are amplified and
distributed by coaxial cable and optical fiber to the premises of customers that
pay a fee for the service. In many

                                        67
   74

cases, cable television systems also originate and distribute local programming.
Cable television systems typically are constructed and operated pursuant to
nonexclusive franchises awarded by LFAs for specified periods of time.

     Cable television systems offer varying levels of service, which may
include, among other programming, local broadcast network affiliates and
independent television stations, certain other news, information and
entertainment channels, such as CNN, CNBC, ESPN, and MTV, and certain premium
services, such as HBO, Showtime, The Movie Channel, Starz and Cinemax.

     Cable television revenues principally are derived from monthly fees paid by
subscribers, sales of pay-per-view movies and events, sale or advertising time
on advertiser supported programming and installation charges.

     High-speed cable Internet services deliver typical ISP services, such as
e-mail, instant messaging, personal webspace management, and personalized front
pages, and content that takes advantage of the unique characteristics of
broadband distribution systems. In some cases, AT&T Broadband Group provides
unique localized content to complement the national content provided by
Excite@Home. Subscribers pay a monthly fee for the services they receive,
including unlimited access to the Internet. Other revenue streams may be derived
from sales of premium content and services, advertising spots, premium placement
of media/service providers within the service, and installation service.

     Cable telephony is a technology that allows cable operators to offer
telephone service over the same hybrid fiber/coaxial network that supplies
television service. Cable telephony systems have three basic components - a
headend unit, a customer premise unit and a management interface - though each
vendor takes a slightly different approach. Cable operators connect to the
public switched telephone network through an interface on the headend unit that
conforms to one of several standards. At the customer premise unit, voice
transmission is separated from the coax drop and routed to a twisted copper pair
connected to the customer's existing inside telephone wiring.

     Cable telephony continues to move forward to offer local residential
telephone service. Now, with IP networks emerging as viable platforms for the
delivery of voice traffic, cable operators hope to use their high-speed data
networks to support packet telephone services as an alternative to deploying
stand-alone telephony equipment.

     Using IP networks, cable operators attempt to create an integrated
multi-service communications platform that operates on a lower cost structure
than existing circuit-switched alternatives. Cable operators believe the
flexibility of IP networks will allow them to deliver a host of unique
value-added features, such as integrated voice mail and e-mail messaging and the
real-time provisioning of additional phone lines without rewiring a home.

STRATEGY

     AT&T Broadband Group's business strategy is to utilize the technological
capabilities of its advanced broadband network and its regionally consolidated
broadband network systems to provide an array of entertainment and
communications services primarily to residential customers in its markets.
Today, these services primarily include analog and digital video, high-speed
cable Internet service and local and long distance telephone.

     AT&T Broadband Group believes that aggressive investment in the
technological capabilities of its broadband network and the long-term
competitive advantages of consolidating operations in major markets and service
bundling will enhance its ability to continue to grow its broadband network
operations and offer advanced services to existing and new customers.

     NETWORK EXPANSION AND UPGRADES

     AT&T Broadband Group continues to deploy fiber optic cable and to upgrade
the technical quality of its hybrid fiber/coaxial broadband network in order to
provide advanced cable services. The result is a significant increase in network
capacity, quality and reliability, facilitating the delivery of additional
programming and services, such as digital video, high-speed cable Internet
service, and local and long distance telephone services.

     AT&T Broadband Group's goal is to have one of the highest network
capabilities in the industry. AT&T Broadband Group's U.S. cable television
systems have bandwidth capacities up to 860 megahertz. At December 31, 2000,
over 75% of AT&T Broadband Group's networks had bandwidth capacity of 550
megahertz or 750 megahertz. At December 31, 2000, the majority of AT&T Broadband
Group's networks had been upgraded to 750 megahertz and, excluding the effect of
the net disposition of subscribers to Comcast described under "-- Consolidating
Operations in Major Markets," 75% of the network was two-way capable.

     Upgrading bandwidth capacity of its systems allows AT&T Broadband Group to:

     - offer advanced services, such as digital television, cable Internet
       service, broadband telephony and other interactive services;

     - increase channel capacity up to 112 channels, or even more programming
       channels if some bandwidth is used for digital services; and

     - permit two-way communication, which will give customers the ability to
       send and receive signals over the cable system so that high-speed cable
       services, such as Internet services, will not require a separate
       telephone line.

     ADVANCED SERVICES

     Beyond traditional analog video programming services, AT&T Broadband Group
offers advanced services to its customers over its broadband network, including:

     - digital video and audio and its related enhancements;

     - high-speed cable Internet services, through cable modems installed in
       subscribers' homes; and

     - cable telephony services.

     The broadband network's high bandwidth allows AT&T Broadband Group to be
well positioned to deliver a multitude of channels and/or new and advanced
services. AT&T Broadband Group believes that this high bandwidth will be a key
factor in the successful delivery of these products and services.

     Beyond these existing advanced services, a variety of emerging technologies
and the rapid growth of Internet usage present substantial opportunities to
provide new or expanded products and services to broadband customers and to
expand sources of revenue. As a result, AT&T Broadband Group is in the process
of testing and offering on a limited basis a variety of new or expanded services
beyond the traditional offerings of analog television programming. These new
products and services include VOD, interactive television, targeted advertising,
multiple service tiers of high-speed cable Internet, home networking, multiple
ISP offerings and a set of communications services that work seamlessly over all
television, computer and telephone platforms.

     Digital video.  As part of upgrading its systems, AT&T Broadband Group
installs headend equipment capable of delivering digitally encoded cable
transmissions to a digital-capable set-top converter box in the customer's home.
This digital connection offers significant advantages over traditional analog
service. For example, AT&T Broadband Group can compress the digital signal to
allow the transmission of up to 12 digital channels in the bandwidth normally
used by one analog

                                        69
   76

channel. This allows AT&T Broadband Group to increase both programming and
service offerings, including near VOD for pay-per-view customers. AT&T Broadband
Group offers digital video services, which include additional channels on its
existing service tiers, create new service tiers, introduce multiple packages of
premium services and increase the number of pay-per-view channels. AT&T
Broadband Group has increased the amount of services purchased by its former
analog-only video customers by offering digital service. Digital services
customers receive a mix of additional television programming, an electronic
program guide and up to 40 channels of digital music.

     High-speed cable Internet service.  AT&T Broadband Group currently provides
Internet services to its customers via cable modems attached to personal
computers.

     The principal advantage of cable Internet connections is the high speed of
data transfer over a cable system and the elimination of the need to dial into
an Internet connection as is required with traditional dial-up ISPs, thus
providing an always-on connection. AT&T Broadband Group currently offers these
services to its residential and small business customers over coaxial cable at
speeds substantially faster than the speed of a conventional telephone modem.
Furthermore, a two-way communication cable system using a hybrid fiber
optic/coaxial structure can support the entire connection at cable modem speeds
without the need for a separate telephone line.

     AT&T Broadband Group has agreements with Excite@Home under which AT&T
Broadband Group is provided with broadband network services and content
aggregation necessary for the delivery of high-speed cable Internet services to
AT&T Broadband Group's subscribers. Agreements between AT&T Broadband Group and
Excite@Home extend to June 2008, with AT&T Broadband Group required to use
Excite@Home for broadband cable Internet services on an exclusive basis until
June 2002. AT&T Broadband Group cable systems acquired in the MediaOne
acquisition obtained similar broadband network services and content aggregation
pursuant to an agreement with Road Runner. Effective May 1, 2001, AT&T Broadband
Group and AOL Time Warner restructured the ownership of Road Runner, with AT&T
Broadband Group purchasing those assets used to support the AT&T Broadband Group
high-speed cable Internet subscribers and selling its equity interest in Road
Runner to subsidiaries of AOL Time Warner. As a consequence of this
restructuring, AT&T Broadband Group's affiliation agreement with Road Runner
terminated May 1, 2001. With respect to its cable systems previously affiliated
with Road Runner, AT&T Broadband Group has entered into a transitional service
agreement with an affiliate of AOL Time Warner to support AT&T Broadband Group's
pending a transition to the Excite@Home service.

     AT&T Broadband Group currently is testing a multiple ISP environment for
its high-speed cable Internet service in Boulder, Colorado. This test is with
four ISPs, two of which are unaffiliated with AT&T Broadband Group. The purpose
of the Boulder experience is to validate operational and technical solutions for
the presentation of choice in selecting an ISP that best suits the subscriber's
needs. A marketing trial will follow later this year. Furthermore, an additional
trial is planned in Massachusetts for the fourth quarter of 2001. The purpose of
this trial is to test these solutions for scale in anticipation of rolling out a
nationwide multiple ISP capability starting in 2002.

     Cable telephony services.  AT&T Broadband Group offers cable telephony
services using its systems' direct, two-way connections to homes. AT&T Broadband
Group utilizes the capacity and reliability of its advanced broadband network,
which will pass virtually all homes in its markets, by providing local telephone
services and reselling AT&T long distance services. AT&T Broadband Group's
telephony market initiatives progressed substantially in 2000. As of December
31, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group had approximately 547,000 telephony customers in
17 markets.

     CONSOLIDATING OPERATIONS IN MAJOR MARKETS

     As an integral part of AT&T Broadband Group's broadband communications
strategy, AT&T Broadband Group has continually sought the advantages and
efficiencies of consolidating its operations into large local and regional cable
systems focused in major markets. AT&T Broadband Group believes that the
consolidation of its cable systems into large geographic areas will improve its

                                        70
   77

ability to leverage network capabilities, sell advertising, enhance its ability
to efficiently introduce and market new products, and allow it to more
efficiently and effectively provide customer service and support. Locally and
regionally focused cable television systems enable AT&T Broadband Group to
reduce expenses through the consolidation of marketing and support functions and
to place more experienced management teams at the system level that are better
equipped to meet the new competitive and regulatory challenges of today's
telecommunications industry. Locally and regionally consolidated operations also
will increase the speed and effectiveness of AT&T Broadband Group's new product
and services deployment, enhancing its ability to increase both customers and
revenues.

     After giving effect to the pending sales of non-strategic systems,
described below, approximately 92% of AT&T Broadband Group's video customers
will be served by its 20 largest markets, approximately 87% of AT&T Broadband
Group's video customers will be located in one of the top 25 U.S. Designated
Marketing Areas, and approximately 84% of AT&T Broadband Group's video customers
will be located in major markets.

     AT&T Broadband Group regularly seeks to improve the geographic footprint of
its cable systems by selectively exchanging its cable systems for systems of
other cable operators or acquiring systems in close proximity to its systems. In
this regard, AT&T Broadband Group completed a significant number of transactions
in 2000 that substantially changed the size and profile of its cable system
network, and has signed agreements in 2001 that will substantially further the
strategic objective of consolidating operations in large local and regional
markets:

     - In January 2000, a subsidiary of AT&T Broadband Group sold its entire 50%
       interest in Lenfest Communications, Inc. to a subsidiary of Comcast. In
       consideration for its 50% interest, AT&T Broadband Group received
       47,289,843 shares of Comcast Special Class A common stock.

     - In February 2000, AT&T Broadband Group redeemed a portion of its interest
       in Bresnan Communications Group LLC for $285 million in cash. AT&T
       Broadband Group then contributed its remaining interest in Bresnan to CC
       VIII, LLC, in exchange for a preferred ownership interest.

     - In March 2000, AT&T Broadband Group redeemed approximately 50.3 million

     - In April 2000, AT&T Broadband Group contributed 103,000 subscribers into
       a joint venture with Midcontinent Communications, Inc. in exchange for a
       50% interest in Midcontinent Communications, a general partnership.

     - In June 2000, MediaOne merged into a subsidiary of AT&T, whereby AT&T
       Broadband Group acquired approximately 5 million basic cable subscribers,
       0.2 million digital video subscribers, 0.3 million high-speed cable
       Internet service subscribers and 0.1 million broadband telephony
       subscribers.

     - Effective December 31, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group transferred systems
       serving approximately 770,000 subscribers primarily located in Michigan
       and Naples, Florida to Comcast in exchange for systems serving
       approximately 700,000 subscribers primarily located in Sacramento,
       California and Chicago, Illinois.

     - In January 2001, AT&T Broadband Group sold 98,400 subscribers to Insight
       Communications Company, Inc. In a subsequent transaction, AT&T Broadband
       Group contributed 247,500 additional subscribers in the Illinois markets
       to Insight Midwest, L.P., a partnership owned 50% by AT&T Broadband Group
       and 50% by Insight Communications, and Insight Communications also
       contributed additional subscribers to the partnership. The expanded joint
       venture will continue to be managed by Insight Communications.

                                        71

     - In January 2001, AT&T Broadband Group acquired 356,000 subscribers in the
       Boston metropolitan area from Cablevision and transferred 128,000 New
       York subscribers and approximately $195 million in cash to Cablevision.

     - On February 27, 2001, AT&T Broadband Group entered into definitive asset
       purchase agreements with MediaCom Communications Corporation pursuant to
       which AT&T Broadband Group will sell to MediaCom cable television systems
       serving about 840,000 basic subscribers in Georgia, Illinois, Iowa and
       Missouri for $2.215 billion in cash.

     - On February 28, 2001, AT&T Broadband Group and Charter Communications,
       Inc. signed definitive agreements pursuant to which (1) Charter will
       receive cable systems from AT&T serving approximately 574,000 customers
       in the St. Louis area; areas of Auburn, Birmingham, Montgomery and Selma,
       Alabama; and the Reno area of Nevada and California; and (2) AT&T
       Broadband Group will receive $1.79 billion, consisting of Charter cable
       systems valued at $249 million serving 62,000 customers in Miami Beach
       and Sebastian, Florida, up to $500 million in Charter common stock and
       the balance in cash.

     - In April 2001, AT&T Broadband Group transferred approximately 595,000
       subscribers in New Mexico, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
       Tennessee to Comcast in exchange for approximately 63.9 million shares of
       AT&T common stock.

     Total managed basic service customers declined between 1997 and 1998 as a
result of certain contribution transactions entered into in 1998. In the most
significant of these transactions, on March 4, 1998, AT&T Broadband Group
contributed to Cablevision certain of its cable television systems serving
approximately 830,000 customers in exchange for approximately 48.9 million newly
issued Cablevision Class A common shares and the assumption of indebtedness.

     In addition to the Cablevision transaction discussed in the paragraph
above, during 1998 AT&T Broadband Group also completed eight transactions
whereby AT&T Broadband Group contributed cable television systems serving in the
aggregate approximately 1,924,000 customers to eight separate joint ventures in
exchange for non-controlling ownership interests in each of the joint ventures,
and the assumption and repayment by these joint ventures of indebtedness.

     Local Franchises.  Cable television systems generally are constructed and
operated under the authority of nonexclusive franchises granted by local and/or
state governmental authorities. U.S. federal law, including the Cable
Communications Policy Act of 1984, or 1984 Cable Act, and the Cable Television
Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992, or 1992 Cable Act, limits the
power of the franchising authorities to impose certain conditions upon cable
television operators as a condition of the granting or renewal of a franchise.

     Franchises contain varying provisions relating to construction and
operation of cable television systems, such as time limitations on commencement
and/or completion of construction; quality of service, including, in certain
circumstances, requirements as to the number of channels and broad categories of
programming offered to customers; rate regulation; provision of service to
certain institutions; provision of channels for public access; and maintenance
of insurance and/or indemnity bonds. AT&T Broadband Group's franchises typically
also provide for periodic payments of fees, not to exceed 5% of revenue, to the
governmental authority granting the franchise. Additionally, many franchises
require payments to the franchising authority for the funding of public,
educational and governmental, or PEG, access channels. Franchises usually
require the consent of the franchising authority prior to a transfer of the
franchise or a transfer or change in ownership or operating control of the
franchisee.

     Subject to applicable law, a franchise may be terminated prior to its
expiration date if the cable television operator fails to comply with the
material terms and conditions of the franchise. Under the 1984 Cable Act, if a
franchise is lawfully terminated, and if the franchising authority acquires
ownership of the cable television system or effects a transfer of ownership to a
third party, the acquisition or transfer must be at an equitable price or, in
the case of a franchise existing on the effective date of the 1984 Cable Act, at
a price determined in accordance with the terms of the franchise, if any.

     In connection with a renewal of a franchise, the franchising authority may
require the cable operator to comply with different and more stringent
conditions than those originally imposed, subject to the provisions of the 1984
Cable Act and other applicable U.S. federal, state and local law. The 1984 Cable
Act, as supplemented by the renewal provisions of the 1992 Cable Act,
establishes an orderly process for franchise renewal, which protects cable
operators against unfair denials of renewals

                                        73
   80

when the operator's past performance and proposal for future performance meet
the standards established by the 1984 Cable Act. AT&T Broadband Group believes
that its cable television systems generally have been operated in a manner that
satisfies these standards and allows for the renewal of its franchises; however,
there can be no assurance that the franchises will be successfully renewed as
they expire.

     Most of AT&T Broadband Group's current franchises had initial terms of
approximately 10 to 15 years. The duration of AT&T Broadband Group's outstanding
franchises currently varies from a period of months to an indefinite period of
time. More than 1,500 of AT&T Broadband Group's franchises expire within the
next three years. This represents more than 35% of the franchises held by AT&T
Broadband Group and involves over 4 million basic service customers.

     Programming Suppliers.  AT&T Broadband Group has various contracts to
obtain basic and premium programming from program suppliers whose compensation
typically is based on a fixed fee per customer or a percentage of AT&T Broadband
Group's gross receipts for the particular service. Some program suppliers
provide volume discount pricing structures or offer marketing support to AT&T
Broadband Group. AT&T Broadband Group's programming contracts generally are for
a fixed period of time and are subject to negotiated renewal. AT&T Broadband
Group's programming costs have increased in recent years, and will likely
continue to increase due to additional programming being provided to its
customers, increased costs to produce or purchase programming, inflationary
increases and other factors. Increases in the cost of programming services have
been offset in part by additional volume discounts as a result of the growth of
AT&T Broadband Group and its success in selling these services to its customers.
AT&T Broadband Group believes that it will continue to have access to
programming services but at increasing cost levels.

     DIGITAL VIDEO

     Digital compression technology currently allows up to 12 digital channels
to be inserted into the space of only one traditional analog channel. The
digitally compressed signal is uplinked to a satellite, which retransmits the
signal to a cable system's headend to be distributed, via optical fiber and
coaxial cable, to the customer's home. At the home, a set-top video terminal
converts the digital signal into analog channels that can be viewed on a normal
television set. Digital compression enables AT&T Broadband Group to increase the
channel capacity of its cable television systems up to 200 channels. AT&T
Broadband Group believes that its cable television system upgrades, along with
the implementation of digital compression technology, will provide its customers
with greater programming diversity, better picture quality, improved reliability
and enhanced service. Digital video customers currently can receive up to 200
channels, including enhanced pay-per-view service, digital music channels, new
networks grouped by genre and an interactive program guide. Below is a summary
of operating statistics for digital video services as of December 31, 2000 and
1999:



                                                                 AS OF DECEMBER 31,

     HIGH-SPEED CABLE INTERNET SERVICE

     The use of computers, on-line services and the Internet has significantly
increased over the last few years. AT&T Broadband Group believes in the revenue
opportunities of Internet-related services, and is taking advantage of these
opportunities by providing high-speed cable Internet service and work-at-home
services to residential customers. AT&T Broadband Group's high-speed cable
Internet service delivers Internet service at speeds substantially faster than
traditional phone modems and provides unique on-line content that capitalizes on
the substantial capacity of AT&T Broadband Group's broadband network. AT&T
Broadband Group also has an ownership interest in Excite@Home, as described
under "-- Other Assets -- Joint Ventures." Below is a summary of

     GENERAL

     Marketing and Sales.  AT&T Broadband Group's sales efforts primarily are
directed toward increasing penetration and revenues in its franchise areas. AT&T
Broadband Group markets its services through promotional campaigns and local
media and newspaper advertising, through telemarketing, direct mail advertising,
on-line selling and in person selling. In addition, AT&T Broadband Group
reserves a portion of its inventory of locally inserted cable television
advertising to market its services.

     Customer Care.  AT&T Broadband Group manages most of its cable
communications systems in geographic regions. This regional approach is intended
to improve its ability to sell advertising, enhance its ability to efficiently
introduce and market new products, and allow it to more efficiently and
effectively provide customer service and support. As part of AT&T Broadband
Group's region-focused strategy, AT&T Broadband Group consolidates its local
customer service operations into large regional call centers. These regional
call centers have technologically advanced telephone systems that provide
24-hour per day, 7-day per week call answering capability, telemarketing and
other services. Subscribers in the remaining cable communications systems
primarily receive customer service through local, system-based representatives.

   82

     System Capacity.  AT&T Broadband Group is engaged in an ongoing effort to
upgrade the technical capabilities of its cable plant and to increase channel
capacity for the delivery of additional programming and new services. At
December 31, 2000, over 75% of AT&T Broadband Group's cable television systems
had bandwidth capacities of at least 550 megahertz, with the majority of the
network upgraded to 750 megahertz. AT&T Broadband Group's cable television
systems generally carry up to 80 analog channels. Compressed digital video
technology converts, on average, 12 analog signals (now used to transmit video
and voice) into a digital format and compresses these signals (which primarily
is accomplished by eliminating the redundancies in television imagery) into the
space normally occupied by one analog signal.

     Rates and Billing.  AT&T Broadband Group offers a basic service (primarily
comprised of local broadcast signals and PEG access channels) and a standard
package (primarily comprised of basic service and expanded basic service, in
such areas as health, family entertainment, religion, news, weather, public
affairs, education, shopping, sports and music). The monthly fee for basic
service generally ranges from $7.50 to $12.00, and the monthly service fee for
the expanded basic service generally ranges from $22.50 to $36.00. Many of the
systems acquired in the MediaOne acquisition also offer a third tier of service
that generally ranges from $2.00 to $6.00 per month. AT&T Broadband Group offers
premium services (referred to in the cable television industry as "pay
channels") to its customers. Premium services principally consist of feature
films, original programming, live and taped sports events, concerts and other
programming, which are offered for a monthly fee. Customers also may elect to
subscribe to digital video services comprised of up to 80 additional video
channels and between 10 and 30 additional audio channels featuring additional
specialized programming and premium services at an average incremental monthly
charge of $10.00.

     As further enhancements to their cable services, for a monthly charge,
customers generally may rent converters and remote control devices, purchase
pay-per-view, or purchase monthly printed channel guides. Also, a nonrecurring
installation charge is usually charged. Pay-per-view programming consists of
movies and special events that are offered to customers for an additional
per-program charge.

     Monthly fees for basic services, standard package and pay channel services
to commercial customers vary widely depending on the nature and type of service.
Except under the terms of certain contracts to provide service to commercial
accounts, customers are free to discontinue service at any time without penalty.

     AT&T Broadband Group also offers AT&T@Home and Road Runner high-speed cable
Internet services in some markets. Monthly charges for AT&T@Home and Road Runner
range from $29.95 to $49.95, which may include, under certain offerings, the
charge for rental of cable modem equipment.

     The 1992 Cable Act and the Telecommunications Act established rules under
which AT&T Broadband Group's basic service and expanded tier service rates and
equipment and installation charges are regulated if the appropriate LFA is
certified.

     Advertising Revenue.  In addition to monthly fees from residential
customers, AT&T Broadband Group derives revenues from the sale of advertising
time on satellite-delivered networks such as ESPN, MTV and CNN. Local cable
television advertising often is more effective and less expensive than
alternative local advertising sources. As such, AT&T Broadband Group expects
continued growth of this revenue source. In addition, AT&T Broadband Group
participates in the national and regional cable television advertising market
through its investment in National Cable Communications, L.L.C., a partnership
that represents cable television companies to advertisers. National Cable
Communications is the largest representation firm in spot cable advertising
sales.

OTHER ASSETS

     JOINT VENTURES

     AT&T Broadband Group possesses a number of investments in publicly held
companies, joint ventures or partnerships, the most significant of which are
Excite@Home, TWE, Insight Midwest, and Texas Cable Partners.

     Excite@Home.  Excite@Home is a provider of content and cable Internet
services over the cable television infrastructure and leased digital
telecommunication lines to consumers and businesses. On September 1, 2000,
Excite@Home converted approximately 50 million of the Excite@Home Series A
shares held by AT&T Broadband Group into Excite@Home Series B shares, each of
which has 10 votes. As a result, AT&T Broadband Group has approximately 23% of
the economic interest and 74% of the voting interest in Excite@Home, as compared
to the 56% voting interest AT&T Broadband Group had previously. AT&T Broadband
Group's interest reflects modifications to Excite@Home's governance structure
which were effective on September 1, 2000. Based on these governance changes,
Excite@Home's financial results, which previously were accounted for by AT&T
Broadband Group as a nonoperational equity investment, are now fully
consolidated and included in AT&T Broadband Group's financial results. On
January 11, 2001, Comcast and Cox exercised their rights to sell a total of
approximately 60 million shares of Excite@Home to AT&T as part of the March 2000
agreement to reorganize Excite@Home's governance. If this transaction were
completed as originally contemplated, AT&T Broadband Group would hold, on a
fully diluted basis, approximately 38% of the economic interest in Excite@Home
and approximately 79% of the voting interest. However, AT&T currently is in
discussions to renegotiate the structure or terms of the exercise of these sale
rights, which negotiations may change the number of shares or the percentage
interests in Excite@Home that AT&T Broadband Group will hold and may result in
Comcast and/or Cox retaining all of their Excite@Home shares.

     On April 17, 2001, Excite@Home issued a press release announcing that, due
to recent acceleration in the weakness of the market for online advertising and
marketing services, it expects to report significantly lower revenues, greater
operating losses and more rapid use of cash than previously forecasted for the
balance of 2001. As a result, Excite@Home will record in its first quarter
results an impairment charge associated with its media business. Because AT&T
owns approximately 23% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of
Excite@Home, AT&T will record an impairment charge in its first quarter results
of $739 million, which will have a net income impact, after minority
elimination, of $279 million. After giving effect to the charge, AT&T's carrying
value of Excite@Home will be approximately $490 million.

     In light of the weaker financial outlook, Excite@Home announced it is
taking several immediate measures to conserve cash and raise additional funds.
These measures include adopting a revised operating plan with lower expenses and
the execution of a non-binding letter of agreement with AT&T under which AT&T
may provide Excite@Home with $75 million to $85 million in connection with the
restructuring of the backbone fiber agreement between the companies and with a
joint initiative to maintain and improve current network performance levels. In
addition, Excite@Home said it may negotiate additional debt and/or equity
financing from third parties, and continue efforts to focus its resources around
its broadband franchise through the potential sale or restructuring of its media
operations not directly supporting the broadband strategy. If Excite@Home does
not achieve its targeted expense reductions or other stated initiatives and
raise at least $75 million to $80 million by June 30, 2001, there would be a
material adverse impact on Excite@Home's operations and liquidity.

     Time Warner Entertainment Company, L.P.  TWE is a Delaware limited
partnership that was formed in 1992 to own and operate substantially all of the
business of Warner Bros., Inc., HBO and the cable television businesses owned
and operated by Time Warner prior to that time. AT&T Broadband Group's current
interest in TWE was acquired by AT&T Broadband Group in connection with the
MediaOne acquisition. Currently, AT&T Broadband Group, through its wholly owned
subsidiaries, owns general and limited partnership interests in 25.51% of the
pro rata priority capital

                                        77
   84

and residual equity capital of TWE. The remaining 74.49% limited partnership
interests in the Series A capital and residual capital of TWE are held by
subsidiaries of AOL Time Warner. AT&T has an option to increase its priority
capital and residual capital interests of TWE from 25.51% to up to 31.84% in
certain events. Subsidiaries of AOL Time Warner act as the general partners of
TWE, and AT&T has only certain protective governance rights pertaining to
certain limited significant matters relating to TWE.

     On February 28, 2001, AT&T submitted a request to TWE, pursuant to the TWE
partnership agreement, that TWE reconstitute itself as a corporation and
register for sale in an initial public offering an amount of partnership
interests held by AT&T (up to the full amount held by AT&T) determined by an
independent investment banking firm so as to provide sufficient trading
liquidity and minimize the initial public offering discount, if any. Under the
TWE partnership agreement, upon this request, AT&T and Time Warner are to cause
an independent investment banker to determine both the registrable amount of
partnership interests and the price at which the registrable amount could be
sold in a public offering, and upon determination of the registrable amount and
the appraised value of the registrable amount, TWE may elect not to register
these interests, but instead to allow AT&T the option to require that TWE
purchase the registrable amount at the appraised value, subject to certain
adjustments. If AT&T does put the registrable amount to TWE under such
circumstances, TWE may call the remainder of AT&T's interest in TWE at a price
described in the TWE partnership agreement. If TWE elects to register the
interests, TWE may have an option to purchase these interests immediately prior
to the time the public offering would otherwise have been declared effective by
the Securities and Exchange Commission at the proposed public offering price
less underwriting fees and discounts if the proposed public offering price (as
determined by the managing underwriter) is less than 92.5% of the appraised
value. If, at the conclusion of this process, AT&T has any remaining interests
in TWE, AT&T will have the right to request registration of those interests for
public sale within 60 days of July 1, 2002. AT&T is simultaneously pursuing
discussions with AOL Time Warner concerning alternative potential arrangements
for the redemption of AT&T's partnership interest in TWE, as well as certain
commercial arrangements with AOL Time Warner. There can be no assurance that
these discussions will continue, or that any of these transactions will be
completed, or the timing or terms of any of these transactions.

     Insight Midwest, L.P. Insight Midwest is a Delaware limited partnership
formed in 1999 to own and operate certain cable systems in Indiana. AT&T
Broadband Group holds a 50% limited partnership interest and Insight
Communications holds a 50% general partnership interest in Insight Midwest. The
business of the partnership is managed by Insight Communications, as the general
partner, although certain matters also require the approval of AT&T Broadband
Group. Insight Midwest currently has approximately 1.3 million cable video
subscribers.

     Texas Cable Partners, L.P. Texas Cable Partners is a Delaware limited
partnership formed in December 1998 to own and operate certain cable systems in
Texas. The partnership is owned 50% by AT&T Broadband Group and 50% by the Time
Warner Entertainment-Advance /Newhouse Partnership, approximately two-thirds of
which is owned by TWE. The general manager of Texas Cable Partners is Time
Warner Cable, a division of TWE, although certain governance matters require the
approval of the management committee on which the Time Warner Entertainment --
Advance /Newhouse Partnership and AT&T Broadband Group have equal
representation. Texas Cable Partners currently has approximately 1.1 million
cable video subscribers.

     OTHER INVESTMENTS

     AT&T Broadband Group has interests in a number of different companies,
including its ownership interest in Cablevision.

COMPETITION

     Cable television competes for customers in local markets with other
providers of entertainment, news and information. The competitors in these
markets include broadcast television and radio,

                                        78
   85

newspapers, magazines and other printed material, motion picture theatres, video
cassettes and other sources of information and entertainment, including direct
broadcast service, directly competitive cable television operations and ISPs.
The 1992 Cable Act and the Telecommunications Act are designed to increase
competition in the cable television industry.

     Additionally, AT&T Broadband Group faces significant competition from both
the local telephone companies and new providers of services such as high-speed
cable Internet service and telephone services. Providers of competitive
high-speed data offerings include fixed wireless companies, DBS companies and
DSL resellers.

     There are alternative methods of distributing the same or similar services
offered by cable television systems. Further, these technologies have been
encouraged by Congress and the FCC to offer services in direct competition with
existing cable systems.

     DIRECT BROADCAST SATELLITE

     DBS has emerged as significant competition to cable systems. The DBS
industry has grown rapidly over the last several years, far exceeding the growth
rate of the cable television industry, and now serves approximately 14 million
subscribers nationwide. DBS service allows a subscriber to receive video
services directly via satellite using a relatively small dish antenna. Moreover,
video compression technology allows DBS providers to offer more than 200 digital
channels, thereby surpassing the typical analog cable system. DBS companies
historically were prohibited from retransmitting popular local broadcast
programming, but a change to the existing copyright laws in November 1999
eliminated this legal impediment. DBS companies now need to secure
retransmission consent from the popular broadcast stations they wish to carry,
and they will face mandatory carriage obligations of less popular broadcast
stations as of January 2002. In response to the legislation, DirecTV, Inc. and
EchoStar Communications Corporation already have begun carrying the major
network stations in the nation's top television markets. DBS, however, is
limited in the local programming it can provide because of the current capacity
limitations of satellite technology. It is, therefore, expected that DBS
companies will offer local broadcast programming only in the larger U.S. markets
for the foreseeable future. The DBS industry recently initiated a judicial
challenge to the statutory requirement mandating carriage of less popular
broadcast stations. This lawsuit alleges that the must-carry requirement
(similar to the requirement already applicable to cable systems, and discussed
under "-- Cable Regulation and Legislation -- Must Carry/Retransmission
Consent") is unconstitutional. DBS companies also have begun offering Internet
services. EchoStar began providing high-speed Internet service in late 2000, and
DirecTV, who has partnered with AOL Time Warner, reports that it will begin
providing its own version of high-speed Internet service shortly. These
developments will provide significant new competition to AT&T Broadband Group's
offering of high-speed cable Internet service.

     BROADCAST TELEVISION

     Cable television has long competed with broadcast television, which
consists of television signals that the viewer is able to receive without charge
using an "off-air" antenna. The extent of this competition is dependent upon the
quality and quantity of broadcast signals available through off-air reception
compared to the services provided by the local cable system. The recent
licensing of digital spectrum by the FCC will provide incumbent television
licensees with the ability to deliver high definition television pictures and
multiple digital-quality program streams, as well as advanced digital services,
such as subscription video.

     DSL

     The deployment of DSL technology will allow the provision of Internet
services to subscribers at data transmission speeds greater than available over
conventional telephone lines. In addition, DSL providers also offer voice
services including via offerings that divide up a phone line into several voice
channels and an always-on data line. All significant local telephone companies
and certain other

                                        79
   86

telecommunications companies are introducing DSL service. The FCC has a policy
of encouraging the deployment of DSL and similar technologies, both by incumbent
telephone companies and new, competing telephone companies. The FCC's
regulations in this area are subject to change. The development and deployment
of DSL technology by local telephone companies will provide substantial
competition to AT&T Broadband Group's high-speed cable Internet services and
cable telephony services.

     PRIVATE CABLE

     AT&T Broadband Group also competes with Satellite Master Antenna
Television, or SMATV, systems, which provide multichannel program services and
high-speed Internet Services directly to hotel, motel, apartment, condominium
and similar multi-unit complexes within a cable television system's franchise
area, generally free of any regulation by state and local government authorities
and sometimes on an exclusive basis. FCC rules restrict the ability of cable
operators to maintain ownership of cable wiring inside multi-unit buildings,
thereby making it less expensive for SMATV competitors to reach those customers.
The FCC also has ruled that private cable operators can lease video distribution
capacity from local telephone companies and, thereby, distribute cable
programming services over the public rights-of-way without obtaining a
franchise. In 1999, both the Fifth and Seventh Circuit Courts of Appeal upheld
this FCC policy. This could provide a significant regulatory advantage for
private cable operators in the future.

     CABLE SYSTEM OVERBUILDS

     Cable operators may compete with other cable operators or new entities
seeking franchises for competing cable television systems at any time during the
terms of existing franchises. The 1992 Cable Act promotes the granting of
competitive franchises and AT&T Broadband Group systems operate under
nonexclusive franchises. Recently, there has been a significant increase in the
number of cities that have constructed their own cable television systems in a
manner similar to city-provided utility services. These systems typically
compete directly with the existing cable operator without the burdens of
franchise fees or other local regulation. Although the total number of municipal
overbuild cable systems remains relatively small, recent developments would
indicate an increasing trend in cities authorizing this direct municipal
competition with cable operators. Additionally, over the last few years there
has been significant new investment in private company overbuilders of cable
systems. If this trend continues, AT&T Broadband Group cable systems could face
an increasing number of markets in which a second cable system will be competing
directly with the AT&T Broadband Group system, providing video, audio,
interactive television, high-speed Internet and telephony services.

     TELEPHONE COMPANY ENTRY

     The Telecommunications Act eliminated the statutory and regulatory
restrictions that prevented local telephone companies from competing with cable
operators in the provision of video services. The Telecommunications Act allows
local telephone companies, including RBOCs, to compete with cable television
operators both inside and outside their telephone service areas. AT&T Broadband
Group expects that it could face competition from telephone companies for the
provision of video services, whether it is through wireless cable or through
upgraded telephone networks. AT&T Broadband Group assumes that all major
telephone companies already have entered or may enter the business of providing
video services. Although enthusiasm on the part of LECs appears to be waning,
AT&T Broadband Group is aware that telephone companies have already built, or
are in the process of building, competing cable system facilities in a number of
AT&T Broadband Group's franchise areas. The 1992 Cable Act ensures that
telephone company providers of video services will have access to most of the
significant cable television programming services. As AT&T Broadband Group
expands its offerings to include Internet and other telecommunications services,
it will be subject to competition from the local telephone companies and other
telecommunications providers. The telecommunications industry is highly
competitive, and includes competitors with substantial financial

                                        80
   87

and personnel resources, brand name recognition and long-standing relationships
with regulatory authorities.

     UTILITY COMPANY ENTRY

     The Telecommunications Act eliminates certain U.S. federal restrictions on
utility holding companies and thus frees all utility companies to provide cable
television services. AT&T Broadband Group expects this could result in another
source of competition in the delivery of video, telephony and high-speed
Internet services.

     MMDS

     Another alternative method of distribution is multichannel, multi-point
distribution systems, or MMDS, which deliver programming services over microwave
channels to customers equipped with special antennas. MMDSs are less capital
intensive, are not required to obtain local franchises or pay franchise fees,
and are subject to fewer regulatory requirements than cable television systems.
The 1992 Cable Act also ensures that MMDS operators have the opportunity to
acquire most significant cable television programming services.

     LOCAL VOICE

     AT&T Broadband Group's cable telephony service competes against incumbent
LECs and competitive LECs in the provision of local voice services. Moreover,
many of these companies are expanding their offerings to include Internet
service. The incumbent LECs have very substantial capital and other resources,
longstanding customer relationships and extensive existing facilities and
network rights-of-way. A few competitive LECs also have existing local networks
and significant financial resources.

     FIXED WIRELESS

     Fixed wireless technologies compete with AT&T Broadband Group in the
provision of Internet and voice services. Fixed wireless providers serve the
same functions as a wireline provider, by interconnecting private networks,
bypassing an LEC or connecting to the Internet. The technology involved in
point-to-point microwave connections has advanced, allowing the use of higher
frequencies, and thus smaller antennas, resulting in lower costs and
easier-to-deploy systems for private use and encouraging the use of such
technology by carriers. Fixed wireless systems are designed to emulate cable
connections, and they use the same interfaces and protocols, such as T1, frame
relay, Ethernet and ATM. Fixed wireless systems also match the service
parameters of cable systems, and consequently any application that operates over
a cable should be able to operate over a fixed wireless system.

     RESELLERS

     Among AT&T Broadband Group's competitors in the areas of voice and Internet
services are resellers. Resellers typically are low-cost aggregators that serve
price-conscious market segments and value-added resellers that target customers
with special needs.

     IP TELEPHONY

     IP telephony providers compete directly against AT&T Broadband Group's
cable telephony service. IP telephony providers derive most of their revenues
from per-minute charges, but they also offer other services including voicemail
and IP telephony equipment. The leading IP telephony company is Net2Phone, Inc.,
which derived approximately 85% of its 2000 revenue from per-minute charges, and
approximately 34% of its 2000 revenue from international customers. Although the
offerings of IP telephony providers are limited mostly to voice services, these
companies seek to expand to other areas of the telecommunications industry, and
may succeed in doing so in the future.

                                        81

     GENERAL

     In addition to competition for customers, the cable television industry
competes with broadcast television, radio, print media and other sources of
information and entertainment for advertising revenue. As the cable television
industry has developed additional programming, its advertising revenue has
increased. Cable operators sell advertising spots primarily to local and
regional advertisers.

     AT&T Broadband Group has no basis upon which to estimate the number of
cable television companies and other entities with which it competes or may
potentially compete. The full extent to which other media or home delivery
services will compete with cable television systems may not be known for some
time, and there can be no assurance that existing, proposed or as yet
undeveloped technologies will not become dominant in the future.

EMPLOYEES

     At December 31, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group employed approximately 51,000
individuals in its operations, virtually all of whom are located in the United
States. Approximately 2,000 of these employees are representated by the
Communications Workers of America or the International Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers, both of which are affiliated with the AFL-CIO.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In the normal course of business, AT&T Broadband Group is subject to
proceedings, lawsuits and other claims, including proceedings under government
laws and regulations related to environmental and other matters. Such matters
are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with
assurance. Consequently, AT&T Broadband Group is unable to ascertain the
ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact with respect
to these matters at December 31, 2000. While these matters could affect
operating results of any one quarter when resolved in future periods, it is
management's opinion that after final disposition, any monetary liability of
financial impact to AT&T Broadband Group beyond that provided for at year-end
would not be material to AT&T Broadband Group's annual consolidated financial
position or results of operations.

CABLE REGULATION AND LEGISLATION

     The operation of cable television systems is extensively regulated by the
FCC, some state governments and most local governments. The Telecommunications
Act altered the regulatory structure governing the nation's telecommunications
providers. It removes barriers to competition in both the cable television
market and the local telephone market. Among other things, it reduces the scope
of cable rate regulation.

     The Telecommunications Act required the FCC to implement numerous
rulemakings, some of which are still subject to court challenges. Moreover,
Congress and the FCC have frequently revisited the subject of cable television
regulation and may do so again. Future legislative and regulatory changes could
adversely affect AT&T Broadband Group's operations. This section briefly
summarizes key laws and regulations currently affecting the growth and operation
of AT&T Broadband Group's cable systems.

     CABLE RATE REGULATION

     The 1992 Cable Act imposed an extensive rate regulation regime on the cable
television industry, which regulation limited the ability of cable companies to
increase subscriber fees. Under that regime, all cable systems were subjected to
rate regulation, unless they faced effective competition in their local
franchise area. U.S. federal law now defines "effective competition" on a
community-specific basis as requiring satisfaction of conditions not typically
satisfied in the current marketplace.

     Although the FCC establishes all cable rate rules, local government units
(commonly referred to as LFAs) are primarily responsible for administering the
regulation of the lowest level of cable -- the

                                        82
   89

basic service tier, which typically contains local broadcast stations and PEG
access channels. Before an LFA begins basic service tier rate regulation, it
must certify to the FCC that it will follow applicable U.S. federal rules, and
many LFAs have voluntarily declined to exercise this authority. LFAs also have
primary responsibility for regulating cable equipment rates. Under U.S. federal
law, charges for various types of cable equipment must be unbundled from each
other and from monthly charges for programming services, and priced no higher
than the operator's actual cost, plus an 11.25% rate of return.

     The FCC historically administered rate regulation of any cable programming
service tiers, which typically contain satellite-delivered programming. Under
the Telecommunications Act, however, the FCC's authority to regulate cable
programming service tier rates ended on March 31, 1999.

     CABLE ENTRY INTO TELECOMMUNICATIONS

     The Telecommunications Act provides that no state or local laws or
regulations may prohibit or have the effect of prohibiting any entity from
providing any interstate or intrastate telecommunications service. States are
authorized, however, to impose "competitively neutral" requirements regarding
universal service, public safety and welfare, service quality and consumer
protection. State and local governments also retain their authority to manage
the public rights-of-way. Although the Telecommunications Act clarifies that
traditional cable franchise fees may be based only on revenues related to the
provision of cable television services, it also provides that LFAs may require
reasonable, competitively neutral compensation for management of the public
rights-of-way when cable operators provide telecommunications service. The
Telecommunications Act prohibits LFAs from requiring cable operators to provide
telecommunications service or facilities as a condition of a franchise grant,
renewal or transfer, except that LFAs argue they can seek "institutional
networks" as part of these franchise negotiations. The favorable pole attachment
rates afforded cable operators under U.S. federal law can be increased by
utility companies owning the poles during a five-year phase-in period beginning
in 2001 if the cable operator provides telecommunications service as well as
cable service over its plant. The FCC clarified that a cable operator's
provision of cable Internet service does not affect the favorable pole rates,
but a recent decision by the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals disagreed and
suggested that Internet traffic is neither cable service nor telecommunications
service and might leave cable attachments that carry Internet traffic ineligible
for the U.S. federal rate structure. This decision could lead to substantial
increases in pole attachment rates, and certain utilities have already proposed
vastly higher pole attachment rates based in part on the existing court
decision. The U.S. Supreme Court is now reviewing this decision. The Eleventh
Circuit mandate has been stayed pending Supreme Court action, and a variety of
cable operators, including AT&T Broadband Group, are challenging certain
increased pole attachment rates at the FCC.

     Cable entry into telecommunications will be affected by the regulatory
landscape now being fashioned by the FCC and state regulators. One critical
component of the Telecommunications Act intended to facilitate the entry of new
telecommunications providers (including cable operators) is the interconnection
obligation imposed on all telecommunications carriers. This requires, for
example, that the incumbent LEC must allow new competing telecommunications
providers to connect to the local telephone distribution system. A number of
implementation details are subject to ongoing regulatory and judicial review,
but the basic requirement is now well established.

     CABLE SYSTEMS PROVIDING INTERNET SERVICE

     Although there is at present no significant U.S. federal regulation of
cable system delivery of Internet services, and the FCC recently issued several
reports finding no immediate need to impose this regulation, this situation may
change as cable systems expand their broadband delivery of Internet services. In
particular, proposals have been advanced at the FCC and Congress that would
require cable operators to provide access to unaffiliated ISPs and on-line
service providers. The Federal Trade Commission and the FCC recently imposed
certain open access requirements on Time Warner and AOL in connection with their
merger, but those requirements are not applicable to other

                                        83
   90

cable operators. Some states and LFAs are considering the imposition of
mandatory Internet access requirements as part of cable franchise renewals or
transfers. In June 2000, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected an attempt
by the City of Portland, Oregon to impose mandatory Internet access requirements
on the local cable operator. AT&T Broadband Group has commenced a technical and
operational trial to test how multiple ISPs can offer high-speed, always-on
cable Internet service over a hybrid fiber/coaxial network.

     TELEPHONE COMPANY ENTRY INTO CABLE TELEVISION

     The Telecommunications Act allows telephone companies to compete directly
with cable operators by repealing the historic telephone company/cable company
cross-ownership ban and the FCC's video dial tone regulations. This will allow
LECs, including RBOCs, to compete with cable operators both inside and outside
their telephone service areas. Because of their resources, LECs could be
formidable competitors to traditional cable operators, and certain LECs have
begun offering cable service.

     Under the Telecommunications Act, a LEC or other entity providing video
programming to customers will be regulated as a traditional cable operator
(subject to LFA and U.S. federal regulatory requirements), unless it elects to
provide its programming via an open video system. It was anticipated that the
primary benefit of using an open video system regulatory model was to avoid the
need to obtain a local franchise prior to providing services. However, a January
1999 federal court of appeals decision held that open video system providers can
be required to obtain the franchise. To be eligible for open video system
status, a provider cannot occupy more than one-third of the system's activated
channels when demand for channels exceeds supply, nor can it discriminate among
programmers or establish unreasonable rates, terms or conditions for service.

     Although LECs and cable operators can now expand their offerings across
traditional service boundaries, the general prohibitions remain on LEC buyouts
(i.e., any ownership interest exceeding 10%) of co-located cable systems, cable
operator buyouts of co-located LEC systems, and joint ventures among cable
operators and LECs in the same market. The Telecommunications Act provides a few
limited exceptions to this buyout prohibition.

     ELECTRIC UTILITY ENTRY INTO TELECOMMUNICATIONS/CABLE TELEVISION

     The Telecommunications Act provides that registered utility holding
companies and subsidiaries may provide telecommunications services, information
services, and other services or products subject to the jurisdiction of the FCC,
notwithstanding the Public Utilities Holding Company Act. Electric utilities
must establish separate subsidiaries, known as "exempt telecommunications
companies," and must apply to the FCC for operating authority. Again, because of
their resources, electric utilities could be formidable competitors to
traditional cable systems.

     CABLE TELEVISION OWNERSHIP RESTRICTIONS

     Pursuant to the 1992 Cable Act, the FCC adopted regulations establishing a
30% limit on the number of multichannel video subscribers (including cable and
DBS subscribers) nationwide that a cable operator may reach through cable
systems in which it holds an attributable interest, with an increase to 35% if
the additional cable systems are minority controlled. The FCC stayed the
effectiveness of its ownership limits pending judicial review.

     The FCC directly addressed the 30% ownership rule (and the applicable
ownership attribution standards) in its June 2000 ruling on the MediaOne
acquisition. The FCC allowed the MediaOne acquisition to go forward, but
required AT&T to elect one of three divestiture options to come into compliance
with the 30% ownership cap. Specifically, AT&T was required to either (1) divest
its interest in TWE, (2) terminate its involvement in TWE's video programming
activities, which would require divestiture of substantially all of AT&T's video
programming interests, including its interest in Liberty Media Group, or (3)
divest interests in cable systems. Compliance (or arrangements for compliance)
was required by May 2001.

                                        84
   91

     The FCC previously adopted regulations limiting carriage by a cable
operator of national programming services in which that operator holds an
attributable interest to 40% of the activated channels on each of the cable
operator's systems. The rules provide for the use of two additional channels or
a 45% limit, whichever is greater, provided that the additional channels carry
minority controlled programming services. The regulations also grandfather
existing carriage arrangements that exceed the channel limits, but require new
channel capacity to be devoted to unaffiliated programming services until the
system achieves compliance with the regulations. These channel occupancy limits
apply only up to 75 activated channels on the cable system, and the rules do not
apply to local or regional programming services.

     In March 2001, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the rules
adopted by the FCC pertaining to ownership and programming carriage and remanded
the issues back to the FCC for further review. Following this decision, the FCC
suspended the compliance deadlines initially provided in its order related to
the MediaOne acquisition to afford the FCC an opportunity to determine the
relationship, if any, between the court decision and the conditions required in
the MediaOne order. The duration of such suspension and the ultimate actions of
the FCC cannot be determined at this time.

     The Telecommunications Act eliminates statutory restrictions on
broadcast/cable cross-ownership (including broadcast network/cable
restrictions), but leaves in place existing FCC regulations prohibiting local
cross-ownership between television stations and cable systems. The
Telecommunications Act leaves in place existing restrictions on cable
cross-ownership with SMATV and MMDS facilities, but lifts those restrictions
where the cable operator is subject to effective competition. In January 1995,
however, the FCC adopted regulations that permit cable operators to own and
operate SMATV systems within their franchise area, provided that this operation
is consistent with local cable franchise requirements.

     MUST CARRY/RETRANSMISSION CONSENT

     The 1992 Cable Act contains broadcast signal carriage requirements that
allow local commercial television broadcast stations to elect once every three
years between requiring a cable system to carry the station, or must carry, or
negotiating for payments for granting permission to the cable operator to carry
the station, or retransmission consent. Less popular stations typically elect
must carry, and more popular stations typically elect retransmission consent.
Must carry requests can dilute the appeal of a cable system's programming
offerings, and retransmission consent demands may require substantial payments
or other concessions (e.g., a requirement that the cable system also carry the
local broadcaster's affiliated cable programming service). Either option has a
potentially adverse effect on AT&T Broadband Group's business. The burden
associated with must carry obligations could dramatically increase if television
broadcast stations proceed with planned conversions to digital transmissions and
if the FCC determines that cable systems must carry simultaneously all analog
and digital signals transmitted by the television stations during the multi-year
transition in which a single broadcast license is authorized to transmit both an
analog and a digital signal. The FCC tentatively decided against imposition of
dual digital and analog must carry in a January 2001 ruling. At the same time,
however, it initiated further fact gathering, which, ultimately, could lead to a
reconsideration of that tentative conclusion.

     ACCESS CHANNELS

     LFAs can include franchise provisions requiring cable operators to set
aside certain channels for non-commercial PEG access programming. U.S. federal
law also requires a cable system with 36 or more channels to designate a portion
of its activated channel capacity (up to 15%) for commercial leased access by
unaffiliated third parties. The FCC has adopted rules regulating the terms,
conditions and maximum rates a cable operator may charge for use of this
designated channel capacity, but use of commercial leased access channels has
been relatively limited.

                                        85
   92

     "ANTI-BUY THROUGH" PROVISIONS

     U.S. federal law requires each cable system to permit customers to purchase
premium services or pay-per-view video programming offered by the operator on a
per-channel or a per-program basis without the necessity of subscribing to any
tier of service (other than the basic service tier) unless the system's lack of
addressable converter boxes or other technological limitations does not permit
it to do so. The statutory exemption for cable systems that do not have the
technological capability to comply expires in October 2002, but the FCC may
extend that period if deemed necessary.

     ACCESS TO PROGRAMMING

     To spur the development of independent cable programmers and competition to
incumbent cable operators, the 1992 Cable Act imposed restrictions on the
dealings between cable operators and cable programmers. Of special significance
from a competitive business posture, the 1992 Cable Act precludes satellite
video programmers affiliated with cable operators from favoring cable operators
over competing multichannel video programming distributors (such as DBS and MMDS
distributors). This provision limits the ability of vertically integrated
satellite cable programmers to offer exclusive programming arrangements to AT&T
Broadband Group. Both Congress and the FCC have considered proposals that would
expand the program access rights of cable's competitors, including the
possibility of subjecting both terrestrially delivered video programming and
video programmers that are not affiliated with cable operators to all program
access requirements. Pursuant to the Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act, the
FCC has adopted regulations governing retransmission consent negotiations
between broadcasters and all multichannel video programming distributors,
including cable and DBS.

     INSIDE WIRING; SUBSCRIBER ACCESS

     FCC rules require an incumbent cable operator, upon expiration of a
multiple dwelling unit service contract, to sell, abandon or remove "home run"
wiring that was installed by the cable operator in the multiple dwelling unit
building. These inside wiring rules are expected to assist building owners in
their attempts to replace existing cable operators with new programming
providers that are willing to pay the building owner a higher fee, where a
higher fee is permissible. The FCC also has proposed abrogating all exclusive
multiple-dwelling unit service agreements held by incumbent operators, but
allowing these contracts when held by new entrants. In another proceeding, the
FCC has preempted restrictions on the deployment of private antenna on rental
property within the exclusive use of a tenant, such as balconies and patios.
This FCC ruling may limit the extent to which multiple dwelling unit owners may
enforce certain aspects of multiple dwelling unit agreements that otherwise
prohibit, for example, placement of digital broadcast satellite receiver
antennae in multiple dwelling unit areas under the exclusive occupancy of a
renter. These developments may make it more difficult for AT&T Broadband Group
to provide service in multiple dwelling unit complexes.

     OTHER REGULATIONS OF THE FCC

     In addition to the FCC regulations noted above, there are other regulations
of the FCC covering such areas as:

     - equal employment opportunity (currently suspended as a result of a
       judicial ruling);

     - subscriber privacy;

     - programming practices, including, among other things,

        -- syndicated program exclusivity, which requires a cable system to
           delete particular programming offered by a distant broadcast signal
           carried on the system that duplicates the programming for which a
           local broadcast station has secured exclusive distribution rights,

        -- network program nonduplication,

        -- local sports blackouts,

        -- indecent programming,

        -- lottery programming,

        -- political programming,

        -- sponsorship identification,

        -- children's programming advertisements, and

        -- closed captioning;

     - registration of cable systems and facilities licensing;

     - maintenance of various records and public inspection files;

     - aeronautical frequency usage;

     - lockbox availability;

     - antenna structure notification;

     - tower marking and lighting;

     - consumer protection and customer service standards;

     - technical standards;

     - consumer electronics equipment compatibility; and

     - emergency alert systems.

     The FCC recently ruled that cable customers must be allowed to purchase
cable converters from third parties and established a multi-year phase-in during
which security functions, which would remain in the operator's exclusive
control, would be unbundled from basic converter functions, which then could be
satisfied by third-party vendors. The first phase implementation date was July
1, 2000. Compliance was technically and operationally difficult in some
locations, so AT&T Broadband Group and several other cable operators filed a
request at the FCC that the requirement be waived in those systems. The request
resulted in a temporary deferral of the compliance deadline for those systems.

     The FCC recently initiated an inquiry to determine whether the cable
industry's future provision of interactive services should be subject to
regulations ensuring equal access and competition among service vendors. The
inquiry, which grew out of the FCC's review of the AOL/Time Warner merger, is in
its earliest stages.

     The FCC has the authority to enforce its regulations through the imposition
of substantial fines, the issuance of cease and desist orders and/or the
imposition of other administrative sanctions, such as the revocation of FCC
licenses needed to operate certain transmission facilities used in connection
with cable operations.

     COPYRIGHT

     Cable television systems are subject to U.S. federal copyright licensing
covering carriage of television and radio broadcast signals. In exchange for
filing certain reports and contributing a percentage of their revenue to a U.S.
federal copyright royalty pool (this percentage varies depending on the size of
the system and the number of distant broadcast television signals carried),
cable operators can obtain blanket permission to retransmit copyrighted material
on broadcast signals. The possible modification or elimination of this
compulsory copyright license is subject to continuing review and could adversely
affect AT&T Broadband Group's ability to obtain desired broadcast programming.
In addition, the cable industry pays music licensing fees to Broadcast Music,
Inc. and the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers. Copyright
clearances for nonbroadcast programming services are arranged through private
negotiations.

     STATE AND LOCAL REGULATION

     Cable television systems generally are operated pursuant to nonexclusive
franchises granted by a municipality or other state or local government entity.
The Telecommunications Act clarified that the need for an entity providing cable
services to obtain a local franchise depends solely on whether the entity
crosses public rights-of-way. U.S. federal law now prohibits franchise
authorities from granting exclusive franchises or from unreasonably refusing to
award additional franchises covering an existing cable system's service area.
Cable franchises generally are granted for fixed terms, and in many cases, are
terminable if the franchisee fails to comply with material provisions.
Noncompliance by the cable operator with franchise provisions also may result in
monetary penalties.

     The terms and conditions of franchises vary materially from jurisdiction to
jurisdiction. Each franchise generally contains provisions governing cable
operations, service rates, franchise fees, system construction and maintenance
obligations, system channel capacity, design and technical performance, customer
service standards, and indemnification protections. A number of states subject
cable television systems to the jurisdiction of centralized state governmental
agencies. Although LFAs have considerable discretion in establishing franchise
terms, there are certain U.S. federal limitations. For example, LFAs cannot
insist on franchise fees exceeding 5% of the system's gross revenue, cannot
dictate the particular technology used by the system, and cannot specify video
programming other than identifying broad categories of programming.

     U.S. federal law contains renewal procedures designed to protect incumbent
franchisees against arbitrary denials of renewal. Even if a franchise is
renewed, the franchise authority may seek to impose new and more onerous
requirements, such as significant upgrades in facilities and services or
increased franchise fees and funding for PEG access channels as a condition of
renewal. Similarly, if a franchise authority's consent is required for the
purchase or sale of a cable system or franchise, this authority may attempt to
impose more burdensome or onerous franchise requirements in connection with a
request for consent. Historically, franchises have been renewed for cable
operators that have provided satisfactory services and have complied with the
terms of their franchises.

     PROPOSED CHANGES IN REGULATION

     The regulation of cable television systems at the U.S. federal, state and
local levels is subject to the political process and has been in constant flux
over the past decade. Material changes in the law and regulatory requirements
must be anticipated, and there can be no assurance that AT&T Broadband Group's
business will not be affected adversely by future legislation, new regulation or
deregulation.

                              AT&T BROADBAND GROUP
                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     AT&T Broadband Group is an integrated business of AT&T and not a
stand-alone entity. The combined financial statements included herein reflect
the results of the proposed AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock. Separate
financial statements are not required to be filed for tracking stocks. However,
AT&T Broadband Group has provided the financial statements as an exhibit to this
document to provide additional disclosures to investors to allow them to assess
the financial performance of AT&T Broadband Group. Since the tracking stocks are
governed by a common board of directors, AT&T's board of directors could make
operational and financial decisions or implement policies that affect
disproportionately the businesses of AT&T Broadband Group. For example, AT&T's
board of directors may decide to transfer funds or to reallocate assets,
liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows among groups, without the consent
of shareholders. All actions by AT&T's board of directors are subject to the
board members' fiduciary duties to all shareholders of AT&T as a group and not
just to holders of a particular class of tracking stock and to AT&T's charter,
policy statements, by-laws and inter-company agreements.

     AT&T's board of directors may change or supplement the policies set forth
in the AT&T Groups policy statement and AT&T's other policy statements and
AT&T's by-laws in the sole discretion of AT&T's board of directors, subject to
the provisions of any inter-group agreement but without approval of AT&T's
shareholders. In addition, the fact that AT&T has separate classes of common
stock could give rise to occasions when the interests of the holders of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock and those of the holders of the other classes of
AT&T common stock conflict or appear to diverge or conflict. AT&T's board of
directors would make any change or addition to the policies set forth in the
AT&T Groups policy statement or AT&T's by-laws, and would respond to any actual
or apparent divergence of interest among the groups, in a manner consistent with
its fiduciary duties to AT&T and all of AT&T's shareholders after giving
consideration to the potentially divergent interests and all other relevant
interests of the holders of the separate classes of AT&T shares.

     You should consider that as a result of the flexibility provided to AT&T's
board of directors, it may be difficult for investors to assess the future
prospects of AT&T Broadband Group based on AT&T Broadband Group's past
performance.

     AT&T Broadband Group consists primarily of the assets and business of AT&T
Broadband, LLC (formerly TCI), acquired by AT&T on March 9, 1999 in the TCI
merger, and MediaOne, acquired by AT&T on June 15, 2000 in the MediaOne
acquisition. AT&T Broadband Group is one of the nation's largest broadband
communications providers, providing cable television, high-speed cable Internet
and telephony services. At or for the year ended December 31, 2000, AT&T
Broadband Group's broadband network passed approximately 28.3 million homes, and
had over 16 million basic cable subscribers, approximately $8.4 billion in
combined revenue and approximately $1.7 billion in EBITDA, excluding asset
impairment, pre-tax losses from equity investments and other income or expense.
AT&T Broadband Group provides a broad range of traditional cable services to
customers individually and in combination with other services, including basic
programming, expanded basic programming, premium service, and pay-per-view
programming. In addition, AT&T Broadband Group has been upgrading its network to
provide a variety of advanced services, including digital video, high-speed
cable Internet service, and cable telephony.

                                        89
   96

     Debt attributed to AT&T Broadband Group includes the third party
obligations of AT&T Broadband LLC (formerly TCI) and MediaOne and all
monetization debt. Additional intercompany debt has been allocated to AT&T
Broadband Group to achieve a total debt level based on several factors,
including prospective financing requirements, desired stand-alone credit
profile, working capital and capital expenditure requirements, expected sources
of future deleveraging, and comparable company profiles. Increases in historical
intercompany debt are based on historical cash flows. Such cash outflows include
capital expenditures and investments in cable companies, offset by cash flow
from operations. By the time AT&T's restructuring activities are complete, the
then-intercompany debt balance of AT&T Broadband Group will be replaced with an
equal amount of external debt in a manner to be determined. The historical
interest expense on the allocated intercompany debt was calculated based on a
rate intended to be equivalent to the rate AT&T Broadband Group would receive if
it were a stand-alone entity. Due to AT&T's deleveraging activities, the $28.4
billion of debt at December 31, 2000 is expected to be significantly lower in
the future. AT&T's expected develeraging activities that relate to AT&T
Broadband Group include, but may not be limited to, the following: the announced
sale of non-strategic cable systems which is expected to result in gross cash
proceeds of $3.3 billion and up to $0.5 billion of Charter common stock; any
proceeds that may result from the exercise of AT&T's registration rights in TWE;
and any proceeds from the announced sale of 30 million shares of Cablevision.
Finally, AT&T has made no final determination as to the allocation of proceeds
from the sale of shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock.

OPERATING RESULTS

     The results of operations of the business of AT&T Broadband, LLC, are
included in the results of operations of AT&T Broadband Group since March 1,
1999, the deemed effective date of the TCI merger. The results of operations of
the business of MediaOne, are included in the results of operations of AT&T
Broadband Group since June 15, 2000, the effective date of the MediaOne
acquisition. AT&T Broadband Group has completed other acquisitions and
dispositions in 2000 that affect the comparability of financial results between
periods. On March 15, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group received 50.3 million shares of
AT&T common stock held by Cox in exchange for an entity owning cable television
systems serving approximately 312,000 customers and certain other net assets.

     In addition to the above, the comparability of operating results between
periods has also been affected by the consolidation of Excite@Home beginning
September 1, 2000, due to AT&T Broadband Group gaining voting control. AT&T
Broadband Group, through AT&T Broadband, LLC, has an approximate 23% economic
interest and a 74% voting interest in Excite@Home. Prior to September 1, 2000,
the ownership of Excite@Home was accounted for under the equity method of
accounting, which means the investment was shown in "investments" in the
combined balance sheet, and any earnings or losses were included as a component
of "net losses from equity investments" in the combined statements of
operations. The consolidation of Excite@Home resulted in the inclusion of 100%
of its results in each line item on the combined balance sheet and statement of
operations. The approximate 77% not owned by AT&T Broadband Group, through AT&T
Broadband, LLC, is shown as a single line item on the combined balance sheet
within "minority interest" and within "minority interest in income (expense)" in
the combined statement of operations.

     The results of operations for AT&T Broadband Group begin on March 1, 1999,
the effective date of the TCI merger. Accordingly, the results of operations for
1999 include 10 months of operations as compared to a full 12 months of
operations in 2000 for the business of AT&T Broadband, LLC.

     REVENUE

     Total revenue increased $3,365 million, or 66%, in 2000 compared to 1999.
This increase was due to additional revenue from the MediaOne acquisition of
$1,730 million, an additional two months of revenue in 2000 of $1,035 million,
and the consolidation of Excite@Home of $248 million. The

                                        90
   97

remaining increase was primarily a result of increased revenue from advanced
services (digital video, high-speed cable Internet service and broadband
telephony) of $242 million and an increase in basic cable revenue of
approximately $195 million. Basic cable revenue increased as a result of rate
increases. The increase was offset by a decrease in revenues of $104 million due
to the Cox disposition.

     At December 31, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group serviced approximately 16.0
million basic cable customers, while passing approximately 28.3 million homes,
compared with 11.4 million basic cable customers, while passing approximately
19.7 million homes at December 31, 1999. AT&T Broadband Group acquired a system
passing approximately 8.7 million homes with approximately 5.0 million basic
cable customers in the MediaOne acquisition. At December 31, 2000, AT&T
Broadband Group provided digital video service to approximately 2.8 million
customers, high-speed cable Internet service to approximately 1.1 million
customers, and broadband telephony service to approximately 547,000 customers.
This compares with approximately 1.8 million digital video customers,
approximately 207,000 high-speed cable Internet service customers, and nearly
8,300 broadband telephony customers at December 31, 1999. The MediaOne
acquisition added 0.2 million digital video service customers, 0.3 million
high-speed cable Internet customers and 0.1 million broadband telephony
customers.

     COST OF SERVICES

     Cost of services increased $1,914 million, or 71%, in 2000 compared with
1999. This increase was primarily due to the impact of the MediaOne acquisition
of $833 million, an additional two months of costs in 2000 of $576 million and
the consolidation of Excite@Home of $195 million. The remaining increase
primarily is a result of $180 million increase in programming costs, an increase
of $142 million associated with high-speed cable Internet and broadband
telephony services and an increase in salary expense and other basic cable costs
of $138 million due to growth in business. The increase was offset by a decrease
in costs of $48 million due to the Cox disposition.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $927 million, or
74%, in 2000 compared to 1999. This increase was primarily due to the impact of
the MediaOne acquisition of $458 million, an additional two months in 2000 of
$210 million, an increase in expenses related to high-speed cable Internet
service and broadband telephony of $232 million and the consolidation of
Excite@Home of $56 million.

     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

     Depreciation and amortization increased $2,377 million, or 142%, in 2000
compared to 1999. The increase was primarily due to the impact of the MediaOne
acquisition of $987 million, the consolidation of Excite@Home of $991 million,
and an additional two months in 2000 of $318 million. The remaining increase was
due primarily to a higher asset base resulting from continued infrastructure
investment. Total capital expenditures for 2000 and 1999 were $4,426 million and
$3,161 million, respectively.

     ASSET IMPAIRMENT RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

     Asset impairment, restructuring and other charges increased $5,626 million
in 2000 to $6,270 million. For the year ended 2000, the charge included $6,179
million of asset impairment charges related to Excite@Home and $91 million
related to restructuring and exit costs.

     The charges related to Excite@Home include $4,609 million of asset
impairment charges recorded by Excite@Home associated with the impairment of
goodwill from various acquisitions and a related goodwill impairment charge of
$1,570 million recorded by AT&T Broadband Group associated with goodwill from
the acquisition of its investment in Excite@Home. The impairments

                                        91
   98

resulted from a decision by Excite@Home to exit certain businesses, as well as
significant changes to the dynamics of the online media market that Excite@Home
operates in, which necessitated a general impairment review of Excite@Home's
intangible assets. Since AT&T Broadband Group, through AT&T Broadband, LLC, owns
approximately 23% of Excite@Home, 77% of the charge recorded by Excite@Home was
not included as a reduction of net income, but rather was eliminated through
minority interest in income (expense) in the combined statements of operations.

     The $91 million charge for restructuring and exit plans was primarily due
to headcount reductions as part of the integration of MediaOne, the
centralization of certain functions, and the consolidation of call center
facilities. This charge included $61 million of cash termination benefits
associated with the involuntary separation of 1,060 employees. Approximately 25%
of the employees were management while 75% were non-management employees.
Approximately 74% of the affected employees have left their positions as of
December 31, 2000. The $91 million charge also included a loss of $30 million
recognized on the disposition of facilities as a result of synergies created by
the MediaOne acquisition.

     The 2000 restructuring initiatives are projected to yield cash savings of
approximately $80 million per year. It is expected that increased spending in
growth businesses will largely offset these cash and earnings before interest
and taxes, or EBIT, savings of approximately $50 million. The EBIT savings,
primarily attributable to reduced personnel related expenses, will be realized
in cost of services and selling, general and administrative expenses.

     During 1999, AT&T Broadband Group recorded $644 million of asset
impairment, restructuring and other charges. This included an in-process
research and development charge of $594 million reflecting the estimated fair
value of research and development projects, as of the date of the TCI merger,
which had not yet reached technological feasibility or had alternative future
use. The projects identified related to efforts to offer voice-over-IP,
product-integration efforts for advanced set-top devices, cost-savings efforts
for broadband-telephony implementation, and in-process research and development
related to Excite@Home. The fair value of in-process research and development
was estimated for each project using an income approach, which was adjusted to
allocate fair value based on the project's percentage of completion. Under this
approach, the present value of the anticipated future benefits of the projects
was determined using a discount rate of 17%. For each project, the resulting net
present value was multiplied by a percentage of completion based on effort
expended to date versus projected costs to complete.

     The charge associated with the voice-over-IP technology, which allows voice
telephony traffic to be digitalized and transmitted in IP data packets, was $225
million as of the date of the TCI merger. Current voice-over-IP equipment does
not yet support many of the features required to connect customer premises
equipment to traditional phone networks. Further technical development is also
needed to ensure voice quality that is comparable to conventional
circuit-switched telephony and to reduce the power consumption of the IP
telephony equipment. Testing of IP telephony equipment in the field was started
in late 2000 and will continue throughout 2001.

     The charge associated with product integration efforts for advanced set-top
devices, which will enable us to offer next-generation digital services, was
$114 million as of the date of the TCI merger. The associated technology
consists of the development and integration work needed to provide a suite of
software tools to run on the digital set-top box hardware platform. It is
anticipated that field trials will begin in late 2001 for next generation
digital services.

     The charge associated with cost-savings efforts for broadband telephony
implementation was $101 million as of the date of the TCI merger. Telephony cost
reductions primarily consist of cost savings from the development of a "line of
power switch," which allows cost effective power for customer telephony
equipment through the cable plant. This device will allow us to provide line-
powered telephony without burying the cable line to each house. Trials related
to the telephony cost reductions are complete and implementation has begun in
certain markets.

                                        92
   99

     Additionally, the in-process research and development charge related to
Excite@Home was valued at $154 million. This charge related to projects to allow
for self-provisioning of devices and the development of next-generation client
software, network and back-office infrastructure to enable a variety of network
devices beyond personal computers and improved design for the regional data
centers' infrastructure.

     Although there are technological issues to overcome to complete
successfully the acquired in-process research and development, successful
completion is expected. The costs to complete the identified projects will not
have a material impact on the results of operations. If, however, management of
AT&T Broadband Group is unable to establish technological feasibility and
produce commercially viable products/services, anticipated incremental cash
flows attributed to expected profits from such new products/services may not be
realized.

     Also in 1999, the asset impairment, restructuring and other charges
included a $50 million loss related to a contribution agreement TCI entered into
with Phoenixstar, Inc. This agreement requires AT&T Broadband Group to satisfy
certain liabilities owned by Phoenixstar and its subsidiaries. The remaining
obligation under this contribution agreement and an agreement that MediaOne has
is $57 million, which was fully accrued at December 31, 2000.

     OTHER (EXPENSE) INCOME

     Other (expense) income, decreased from income of $50 million in 1999 to
expense of $39 million for 2000. This decrease was primarily a result of a $537
million charge resulting from the increase in the fair value of the put options
held by Comcast and Cox related to Excite@Home stock and investment impairment
charges of $240 million. This was offset by an increase in gains on sales of
businesses and investments of $577 million, including the swap of cable systems
with Comcast and Cox and the sale of the investment in Lenfest, and an increase
of $69 million in interest and dividend income.

     INTEREST EXPENSE

     Interest expense increased $618 million in 2000 to $1,323 million compared
to 1999. The increase was a result of an increase in debt of $13.5 billion due
primarily to the MediaOne acquisition, the monetization of investments in
Microsoft and Comcast, two additional months of interest in 2000, and an
increase in the interest rate charged from AT&T for intercompany debt.

     NET LOSSES FROM EQUITY INVESTMENTS

     Net losses from equity investments which are recorded net of income tax
decreased $110 compared to 1999. The decrease was due in part to a $185 million
improvement in Cablevision's results, which was partially offset by additional
equity losses of $64 million from amortization of excess basis of equity
investments acquired in the MediaOne acquisition. The improvement in
Cablevision's results is primarily due to gains from cable system sales.

     MINORITY INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE)

     Minority interest income (expense) which is recorded net of income tax
represents an adjustment to AT&T Broadband Group's net loss to reflect the less
than 100% ownership of entities attributed to AT&T Broadband Group as well as
dividends on preferred stock issued by subsidiaries of AT&T which have been
attributed to AT&T Broadband Group. The increase of $4,188 million in 2000
primarily resulted from the consolidation of Excite@Home effective September 1,
2000. The minority interest in 2000 primarily reflects the losses generated by
Excite@Home, including the goodwill impairment charge, that were attributed to
the approximate 77% of Excite@Home not owned by AT&T Broadband Group through
AT&T Broadband, LLC.

                                        93
   100

     BENEFIT FOR INCOME TAXES

     The benefit for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2000, was
$1,183 million, compared with a benefit of $465 million for the ten months ended
December 31, 1999. The effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31,
2000 was 11.8%, compared to 25.3% for the ten months ended December 31, 1999.
The effective rate for 2000 was impacted by the inclusion of Excite@Home as a
consolidated entity, and the Cox disposition. The 1999 effective tax rate was
impacted by the non tax deductible in-process research and development
write-off.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The continued expansion and upgrade of AT&T Broadband Group's network to
provide advanced services, including digital video, high-speed cable Internet
service and cable telephony will continue to require substantial capital. AT&T
Broadband Group has funded its operations through internally generated funds,
asset sales, capital contributions from AT&T and intercompany borrowings from
AT&T. Capital contributions from AT&T include acquisitions made by AT&T that
have been attributed to AT&T Broadband Group which are treated as non cash.

     Currently, financing activities for AT&T Broadband Group are managed by
AT&T on a centralized basis. Sources for AT&T Broadband Group's future financing
requirements may include borrowing of funds, including additional debt from AT&T
and/or third party debt. Loans from AT&T to any entity within AT&T Broadband
Group have been made at interest rates and on other terms and conditions
intended to be substantially equivalent to the interest rates and other terms
and conditions that AT&T Broadband Group would be able to obtain from third
parties, including the public markets, as a non-affiliate of AT&T without the
benefit of any guaranty by AT&T.

     AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Broadband Group.
Substantially all of AT&T Broadband Group's cash balances are swept to AT&T on a
daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers of cash to
and from AT&T, after giving consideration to debt allocation methodology, are
reflected as a component of combined attributed net assets.

     Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31,
2000, was $802 million, compared with $1,380 million for the ten months ended
December 31, 1999. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was
primarily due to the launch of high-speed cable Internet service and broadband
telephony, and a net use of cash from changes in accounts receivable, accounts
payable and other operating assets and liabilities.

     Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2000
was $4,511 million compared with $2,915 million for the ten months ended
December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to capital expenditures for
upgrades and rebuilds of the broadband network. In 2000, AT&T Broadband Group
spent $71 million for net acquisitions and dispositions and in 1999 received
$740 million from net acquisitions and dispositions.

     Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31,
2000 was $3,770 million compared with $1,535 million for the ten months ended
December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to additional funding needed
for increased capital expenditures.

     At December 31, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group had current assets of $3,506
million and current liabilities of $15,950 million. A significant portion of the
current liabilities, $8,903 million, relates to short-term debt. Financing
activities of AT&T Broadband Group were managed by AT&T on a centralized basis.
AT&T Broadband Group expects that it will repay a portion of the short-term debt
payable in a variety of ways. Major elements of this deleveraging plan include
proceeds from announced sales of cable systems and sales of other investments.
In February, 2001, AT&T exercised its registration rights in TWE and formally
requested TWE to begin the process of converting the limited partnership into a
corporation with registered equity securities. However, ongoing discussions with
AOL Time Warner for the sale of TWE have continued. Also, AT&T intends to sell
30 million shares of Cablevision. Since TWE and Cablevision are attributed to
AT&T Broadband Group, any

                                        94
   101

proceeds from sales would also be attributed to AT&T Broadband Group. In
addition, AT&T retains the flexibility to allocate proceeds from the AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock offering among the AT&T groups in any manner
which it deems most appropriate.

     EBITDA, excluding asset impairment, pre-tax losses from equity investments
and other income or expense, is the primary measure used by the chief operating
decision-makers to measure the ability to generate cash flow. EBITDA, excluding
asset impairment, pre-tax losses from equity investments and other income or
expense, may or may not be consistent with the calculation of EBITDA for other
companies and should not be viewed as an alternative to generally accepted
accounting principles, measures of performance or to cash flow from operating,
investing and financing activities as a measure of liquidity.

     EBITDA, excluding asset impairment, pre-tax losses from equity investments
and other income or expense, for the year ended December 31, 2000, was $1.7
billion, compared with $1.1 billion for the ten months ended December 31, 1999.
This improvement was due to the impact of the MediaOne acquisition and an
additional two months of operations of AT&T Broadband, LLC in 2000. Higher
expenses in high- speed cable Internet service and broadband telephony offset
this increase.

     At December 31, 2000, an entity attributed to AT&T Broadband Group has an
agreement with Motorola, Inc. to purchase a minimum of 1.25 million digital
set-top devices at an average price of $248 per unit until 2001.

     AT&T Broadband Group is party to an agreement under which it purchases
certain billing services from an unaffiliated third party. Unless terminated by
either party pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the agreement expires on
December 31, 2012. The agreement calls for monthly payments. Such payments are
subject to adjustments and conditions pursuant to the terms of the underlying
agreement. Amounts included in selling, general and administrative expenses that
were incurred in connection with these arrangements were approximately $143
million for the year ended December 31, 2000.

     Pursuant to an agreement with a subsidiary of Liberty Media Group, entities
attributed to AT&T Broadband Group purchase programming and other services from
a Liberty Media Group subsidiary, and are required to make minimum payments for
these programming and other services through 2022. The commitment increases
annually from $288 million in 2001 to $315 million in 2003, and will increase
annually through 2022 with inflation. In the event that programming costs of
this Liberty Media Group subsidiary increase by more than 10 percent of an
amount specified in the agreement, AT&T Broadband Group's commitment will be
increased by an amount equal to 66 percent of the increase over the amount
specified in the agreement. Other factors such as acquisitions and divestitures
also affect the commitment amounts.

     AT&T Broadband Group, through MediaOne, had a 31.4% ownership interest in
Road Runner. The members of Road Runner have dissolved Road Runner during 2001
and agreed to convert the customers to the respective cable members' systems. In
order to accomplish this, AT&T Broadband Group acquired approximately $66
million of network assets, net of related liabilities, and will incur additional
transition and dissolution costs estimated at $75 million to $100 million.

     AT&T's board of directors has the power to make determinations that may
impact the financial and liquidity position of AT&T Broadband Group. This power
includes the ability to set priorities for use of capital and debt capacity, to
determine cash management policies and to make decisions regarding whether to
make capital expenditures and as to the timing and amount of any capital
expenditures. All actions by AT&T's board of directors are subject to the board
members' fiduciary duties to all shareholders of AT&T as a group and not just to
holders of a particular class of tracking stock and to AT&T's charter, policy
statements, by-laws and inter-company agreements. As a result of this discretion
of AT&T's board of directors, it may be difficult for investors to assess AT&T

                                        95
   102

Broadband Group's liquidity and capital resource needs and in turn the future
prospects of AT&T Broadband Group based on past performance.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Total assets were $117,534 million as of December 31, 2000, which increased
$59,306 million compared to December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to
the impact of the MediaOne acquisition, which resulted in increased goodwill,
franchise costs, other investments including TWE and Vodafone Group plc and the
impact of the consolidation of Excite@Home. In addition, the increase resulted
from capital expenditures, net of depreciation. These increases were partially
offset by a decrease in the mark to market valuation of certain investments.

     Total liabilities were $65,086 million as of December 31, 2000, which
increased $28,774 million compared to December 31, 1999 primarily due to the
impact of the MediaOne acquisition, including the debt of MediaOne and the
deferred taxes related to the franchise costs, as well as the consolidation of
Excite@Home. In addition, total debt increased due to the monetization of
investments in Microsoft and Comcast. At December 31, 2000, $8.7 billion of
total debt was monetized investments, where such investments can be delivered in
full satisfaction of the underlying debt at the time of maturity.

     Combined attributed net assets was $43,317 million as of December 31, 2000,
an increase of $28,428 million compared to December 31, 1999. The increase was
primarily due to the net transfers from AT&T for the MediaOne acquisition and
net transfers from AT&T to fund capital expenditures.

RISK MANAGEMENT

     AT&T Broadband Group is exposed to market risk from changes in interest
rates, as well as changes in equity prices associated with affiliated companies.
In addition, AT&T Broadband Group is exposed to market risk from fluctuations in
the prices of securities which have been monetized through the issuance of debt.
On a limited basis, certain derivative financial instruments, including interest
rate swaps and options are used to manage these risks. Financial instruments are
not used for trading or speculative purposes. All financial instruments are used
in accordance with AT&T board-approved policies.

     Interest rate swaps are used to manage the impact of interest rate changes
on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. Option
contracts are used to reduce exposure to the risk of fluctuations in the prices
of securities that have been monetized. Interest rate risk is monitored on the
basis of changes in fair value. Assuming a 10% downward shift in interest rates,
the fair value of interest rate swaps and the underlying hedged debt would have
changed by $15 million and $1 million at December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. In addition, certain debt is indexed to the market prices of
certain securities owned. Changes in the market price of these securities result
in changes in the fair value of this debt. Assuming a 10% downward change in the
market price of the securities, the fair value of the underlying debt and
securities would have decreased by $534 million at December 31, 2000. Assuming a
10% downward shift in interest rates at December 31, 2000 and 1999, the fair
value of unhedged debt would have increased by $563 million and $288 million,
respectively.

     Equity hedges are used to manage exposure to changes in equity prices
associated with stock appreciation rights, or SARs, of affiliated companies.
Assuming a 10% decrease in equity prices of affiliated companies, the fair value
of equity hedges would have decreased by $29 million and $75 million at December
31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Because these contracts are entered into for
hedging purposes, it's believed that the decrease in fair value would be largely
offset by gains on the underlying transaction.

                                        96
   103

     In order to determine the changes in fair value of the various financial
instruments, certain modeling techniques, namely Black-Scholes, are used for the
SARs and equity collars. Rate sensitivity changes are directly applied to
interest rate swap transactions.

     The changes in fair value, as discussed above, assume the occurrence of
certain adverse market conditions. They do not consider the potential effect of
favorable changes in market factors and do not represent projected losses in
fair value expected to incur. Future impacts would be based on actual
developments in global financial markets. There are no significant foreseen
changes in the strategies used to manage interest rate risk or equity price risk
in the near future.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." Among other provisions, it
requires that entities recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities
in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair
value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those
derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and
whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The effective date of this standard
was delayed via the issuance of SFAS No. 137. The effective date for SFAS No.
133 is now for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, though earlier
adoption is encouraged and retroactive application is prohibited. For AT&T
Broadband Group this means the standard must be adopted no later than January 1,
2001. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" as an amendment to SFAS
No. 133. This statement provides clarification with regard to certain
implementation issues under SFAS No. 133 on specific types of hedges.

     On January 1, 2001, AT&T Broadband Group adopted SFAS No. 133. AT&T
Broadband Group recorded a cumulative effect of an accounting change, net of
applicable taxes, of approximately $1,209 million of income, primarily
attributable to fair value adjustments of debt instruments, including those
acquired in conjunction with the MediaOne acquisition, as well as to the warrant
portfolio. In addition, in connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 133, AT&T
Broadband Group reclassified certain investment securities, which support debt
that is indexed to those securities, from "available-for-sale" to "trading."
This reclassification resulted in the recognition of a charge of $1,724 million,
net of applicable taxes, which was recorded as a reduction of other income. As
available-for-sale securities, changes in fair value were previously included
within other comprehensive income as a component of combined attributed net
assets.

     The impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, on
AT&T Broadband Group's future results of operations is dependent upon the fair
values of the derivatives and related financial instruments and could result in
significant quarterly fluctuations in other income in future periods.

     In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB, No.
101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Registrants were required to
apply the accounting and disclosures described in SAB No. 101 no later than the
fourth quarter of 2000. AT&T Broadband Group is currently in compliance with the
provisions of SAB No. 101.

     In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities -- a
Replacement of FASB No. 125." This statement provides accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. Under these standards, after a transfer of financial assets, an
entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the
liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been
surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This statement
provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. This statement is
effective for transfers and servicing

                                        97
   104

of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31,
2001. AT&T Broadband Group does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 140 will
have a material impact on AT&T Broadband Group's results of operations,
financial position or cash flows.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     Effective January 1, 2001, entities attributed to AT&T Broadband Group sold
to Insight Communications, for $392 million, several Illinois systems serving
approximately 98,400 customers. Insight Communications contributed the customers
to Insight Midwest, a partnership in which AT&T Broadband Group, through its
attributed entities, has a 50% interest. The $62 million gain on such
transaction is being deferred due to a keep well agreement with Insight Midwest.
Entities attributed to AT&T Broadband Group also contributed several Illinois
systems serving approximately 247,500 customers to Insight Midwest while Insight
Communications contributed systems serving approximately 177,000 customers. The
$117 million gain on this transaction is being deferred due to a keep well
agreement with Insight Midwest.

     On January 2, 2001, AT&T through AT&T Broadband, LLC, completed the sale of
Kearns-Tribune, LLC, to MediaNews Group for $200 million in cash. The
transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $107 million.

     On January 8, 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and Cablevision completed
agreements for the transfer of cable systems. AT&T received cable systems
serving 358,000 customers in Boston and Eastern Massachusetts. In exchange,
Cablevision received cable systems serving approximately 130,000 customers in
northern New York suburbs, and 44 million shares of AT&T common stock valued at
approximately $871 million, and approximately $204 million in cash. Cablevision
recorded a gain as a result of the transaction. Due to the ownership interest in
Cablevision, AT&T Broadband Group recorded its portion of the gain, of $234
million in "net losses from equity investments."

     On April 30, 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T received 63.9 million shares of
AT&T stock valued at $1,423 million held by Comcast in exchange for an entity
owning cable systems serving approximately 590,000 customers in Delaware, New
Mexico, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Tennessee. The transaction
resulted in a pre-tax loss of $297 million.

     In February 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and Charter signed a definitive
agreement involving several strategic cable system transactions. In accordance
with the agreement, Charter will receive cable systems, which are attributed to
AT&T Broadband Group, that serve approximately 574,000 customers in Missouri,
Illinois, Alabama, Nevada and California. AT&T Broadband Group, through its
attributed entities, will receive cable systems serving approximately 62,000
customers in Florida, up to $502 million in Charter common stock and cash for a
total value of $1,790 million, subject to adjustments. Pending certain closing
conditions and regulatory approvals, the transactions are expected to close in
the second and third quarters of 2001.

     In February 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and MediaCom signed a definitive
agreement in which certain cable systems attributed to AT&T Broadband Group
serving approximately 840,000 customers in Georgia, Iowa, Illinois and Missouri
will be sold to MediaCom. AT&T Broadband Group will receive cash of
approximately $2,215 million, subject to adjustments. Pending certain closing
conditions and regulatory approvals, the transaction is expected to close in the
second quarter of 2001.

     In April 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and Adelphia Communications Corporation
signed a definitive agreement in which certain cable systems attributed to AT&T
Broadband Group serving approximately 128,000 customers in central Pennsylvania
and Ohio will be sold to Adelphia. AT&T Broadband Group will receive cash of
approximately $318 million, subject to adjustments. Pending certain closing
conditions and regulatory approvals, the transaction is expected to close in the
third quarter of 2001.

     In May 2001, AT&T, together with certain subsidiaries attributed to the
AT&T Broadband Group, agreed to sell the 99.75% interest they own in the entity
holding the Baltimore, Maryland cable television system, serving approximately
110,000 customers, to Comcast for approximately $516 million. Pending certain
closing conditions and certain regulatory conditions, this transaction is
expected to close at the end of the second quarter or beginning of the third
quarter of 2001.

     On January 11, 2001, Comcast and Cox exercised their rights to sell a total
of approximately 60 million shares of Excite@Home to AT&T as part of the March
2000 agreement to reorganize Excite@Home's governance. If this transaction were
completed as originally contemplated, AT&T Broadband Group would hold, on a
fully diluted basis, approximately 38% of the economic interest in Excite@Home
and approximately 79% of the voting interest. However, AT&T currently is in
discussions to renegotiate the structure or terms of the exercise of these sale
rights, which negotiations may change the number of shares or the percentage
interests in Excite@Home that AT&T Broadband Group will hold and may result in
Comcast and/or Cox retaining all of their Excite@Home shares.

     In the first quarter of 2001, AT&T Broadband Group recorded a charge of $56
million for restructuring and exit costs as part of an initiative to reduce
costs. The restructuring and exit plans primarily focus on the maximization of
synergies through headcount reductions, including the consolidation of
customer-care and call centers and the reduction in the construction efforts on
rebuilds. Included in exit cost was $53 million of cash termination benefits
associated with the separation of approximately 2,100 employees as part of an
involuntary termination plan. Approximately 11% were management employees and
89% were non-management employees. The charge also included approximately $3
million recognized on the disposition of facilities as a result of the headcount
reductions. AT&T Broadband Group expects to incur a charge in the second quarter
of 2001 related to continued headcount reductions and consolidation of
facilities.

     In the first quarter of 2001, AT&T signed a non-binding letter of agreement
under which AT&T may provide Excite@Home with $75 million to $85 million in
connection with the restructuring of the backbone fiber agreement between the
companies and with a joint initiative to maintain and improve current network
performance levels. In addition, AT&T Broadband Group recorded $752 million of
asset impairment and restructuring charges related to Excite@Home. The
impairment charges relate to $600 million in asset impairment charges taken by
Excite@Home and a related goodwill impairment of $139 million taken by AT&T
Broadband Group associated with its acquisition of goodwill of Excite@Home. Also
the asset impairment and restructuring charge included $13 million of
restructuring charges for head count reductions and consolidation of facilities.

                THE CONSUMER SERVICES CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

     The description of the material terms of the charter amendment proposal set
forth below is not complete. We qualify this description by reference to the
form of proposed charter amendment, a copy of which we have attached as Appendix
B to this proxy statement. We urge all shareholders to read it in its entirety.

GENERAL

     We are proposing the following amendment to our charter, which we refer to
as the Consumer Services charter amendment proposal:

     Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment -- an amendment to create
     a new class of common stock called Consumer Services Group common stock,
     par value $1.00 per share, which we intend to reflect the financial
     performance and economic value of our Consumer Services business. We refer
     to this stock as "AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock."

     Approval of the Consumer Services charter amendment proposal requires a
majority of the combined voting power of all outstanding shares of AT&T common
stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock
and AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock to vote in its favor. OUR BOARD
OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR APPROVAL. Any shares not
voted, whether by abstention, broker non-vote or otherwise, have the effect of a
vote against the Consumer Services charter amendment proposal.

CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK AMENDMENT

     The Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment would, among other
things:

     - Define "AT&T Consumer Services Group," the financial performance and
       economic value of which we intend AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
       stock to reflect. AT&T Consumer Services Group will consist of the assets
       and liabilities shown in the combined balance sheets of AT&T Consumer
       Services Group and will include:

       -- all Consumer Services long distance customers;

       -- all Consumer Services support infrastructure, including ordering,
          provisioning, billing and care; and

       -- all Consumer Services marketing operations.

     - Establish the terms of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock,
       consisting of                authorized shares and entitling the holders
       of the AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to
                                 of a vote per share, voting as one class with
       all other classes and series of common stock and preferred stock of AT&T
       with respect to all matters to be voted upon by AT&T shareholders, except
       as otherwise required by the NYBCL or by the terms of any other class or
       series of AT&T's capital stock.

     We include a more complete description of AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock under "--Terms of the Consumer Services Group Tracking Stock
Amendment."

RECOMMENDATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED THE CONSUMER SERVICES CHARTER AMENDMENT
PROPOSAL AND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE CONSUMER SERVICES CHARTER
AMENDMENT PROPOSAL.

TERMS OF THE CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK AMENDMENT

     GENERAL

     If we adopt the Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment, we will
amend our charter to authorize           billion shares of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock. For a description of the currently authorized and
outstanding shares of AT&T capital stock, see "The

                                       100
   107

Broadband Charter Amendment Proposal -- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking
Stock Amendment -- General."

     EFFECT UPON OTHER AT&T TRACKING STOCKS

     The Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment would not affect the
substantive provisions relating to Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock.

     AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP

     We intend AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to reflect the
financial performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group. The
Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment defines "AT&T Consumer Services
Group" generally as the interest of AT&T or any of its subsidiaries in all of
the businesses, assets and liabilities reflected in the unaudited combined
financial statements of AT&T Consumer Services Group, dated December 31, 2000,
as included in this proxy statement, including any successor to AT&T Consumer
Services Group by merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of
its assets. The Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment contains
adjustments to the definition of "AT&T Consumer Services Group" to reflect,
among other things, related assets and liabilities (including contingent
liabilities), net income and net losses arising after the date of these
financial statements, contributions and allocations of assets, liabilities and
businesses between the groups and acquisitions and dispositions.

     Any retained portion of the value of AT&T Consumer Services Group
represented by AT&T common stock will be included in AT&T Business Services
Group. See "-- AT&T Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction."

     AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP ALLOCATION FRACTION

     The Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment defines the "AT&T
Consumer Services Group allocation fraction" to represent the interest in the
financial performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group
reflected by AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock distributed to the
public. It is our current intention that all of the interest in the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group be reflected in
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, and, therefore, the AT&T Consumer
Services Group allocation fraction is currently intended to be one. If at any
time all of the interest in the financial performance and economic value of AT&T
Consumer Services Group is not reflected by the outstanding AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock, this fraction will be used, in effect, to
allocate to AT&T Business Services Group the right to participate in any
dividend, distribution or liquidation payment made to holders of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock. This right to participate will reflect the
retained portion of the value of AT&T Business Services Group in AT&T Consumer
Services Group. At any time that all of the interest in the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group is fully
reflected by the outstanding AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, this
fraction will equal one.

     Subject to the criteria we describe below, this fraction is subject to
adjustment from time to time as our board of directors deems appropriate:

     - to reflect subdivisions (by stock split or otherwise) and combinations
       (by reverse stock split or otherwise) of AT&T Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock and stock dividends payable in shares of AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock;

     - to reflect the fair market value of contributions or allocations by AT&T
       of cash, property or other assets or liabilities from other AT&T groups
       to AT&T Consumer Services Group (or vice versa), or of cash or property
       or other assets or liabilities of other AT&T groups to, or for the
       benefit of, employees of AT&T Consumer Services Group in connection with
       employee benefit plans or arrangements of AT&T or any of its subsidiaries
       (or vice versa);

                                       101
   108

     - to reflect the number of shares of AT&T capital stock contributed to, or
       for the benefit of, employees of AT&T Consumer Services Group in
       connection with benefit plans or arrangements of AT&T or any of its
       subsidiaries;

     - to reflect repurchases by AT&T of shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock for the account of AT&T Broadband Group;

     - to reflect issuances of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for
       the account of AT&T Consumer Services Group;

     - to reflect dividends or other distributions to holders of AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock, to the extent no required payment is made
       to AT&T Business Services Group; and

     - under other circumstances as our board of directors determines
       appropriate to reflect the economic substance of any other event or
       circumstance.

     In addition, in determining the percentage interest of holders of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock in any particular dividend or other
distribution, we will reduce the economic interest of holders of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock to reflect dilution arising from shares of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock reserved for issuance upon conversion,
exercise or exchange of other securities that are entitled to participate in
this dividend or other distribution.

     The Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment provides that any
adjustment of this kind must be made in a manner that our board of directors
determines to be fair and equitable to holders of AT&T common stock and AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock. In the event that any assets or other
property are acquired by other AT&T group(s) and allocated or contributed to
AT&T Consumer Services Group, the consideration paid by the other AT&T group(s)
to acquire these assets or other property will be presumed to be its "fair
market value" as of its acquisition. Any adjustment to the AT&T Consumer
Services Group allocation fraction made by our board of directors in accordance
with these principles will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors
and will be final and binding on all shareholders.

     VOTING RIGHTS

     Currently, holders of AT&T common stock have one vote per share, holders of
Class B Liberty Media Group tracking stock have 0.375 of a vote per share,
holders of Class A Liberty Media Group tracking stock have 0.0375 of a vote per
share, holders of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock have 0.5 of a vote per
share and holders of AT&T Wireless Group preferred tracking stock have 250 votes
per share. This voting power is subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock
dividends and combinations, including any distribution of AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock to holders of AT&T common stock.

     Each outstanding share of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock
initially will have           of a vote. The voting rights of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock will be subject to adjustments to reflect stock
splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends or certain stock distributions
with respect to AT&T common stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock,
Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock.

     Except as otherwise required by New York law or any special voting rights
of any class or series of AT&T preferred stock, Liberty Media Group tracking
stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
or any other class of AT&T common shares, holders of shares of AT&T common
stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, each other class of AT&T
common shares, if any, that is entitled to vote, Class A Liberty Media Group
tracking stock and Class B Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless
Group tracking stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and holders of shares
of each class or series of AT&T preferred

                                       102
   109

stock, if any, that is entitled to vote, will vote as one class with respect to
all matters to be voted on by shareholders of AT&T. No separate class vote of
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will be required, except as required
by the NYBCL.

     DIVIDENDS

     General.  Following any issuance of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock, it is currently expected that one-third of the current dividend payable
on AT&T common stock will be allocated to AT&T common stock and that two-thirds
of the dividend will be allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock. The declaration of dividends by AT&T and the amount thereof will,
however, be in the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon
each of our group's financial performance, the dividend policies and capital
structures of comparable companies, each group's ongoing capital needs, and
AT&T's results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements and future
prospects and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. Payment
of dividends also may be restricted by loan agreements, indentures and other
transactions that AT&T enters into from time to time. Provided that AT&T has
sufficient assets to pay a dividend under applicable law, after excluding the
available dividend amount relating to Liberty Media Group, AT&T Wireless Group
and AT&T Broadband Group, the Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment
provides that dividends on AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock are
limited to an available dividend amount that is designed to be equivalent to the
amount that would legally be available for dividends on that stock if AT&T
Consumer Services Group were a stand-alone entity. Dividends on AT&T common
stock are limited to the amount of legally available funds for all of AT&T less
the sum of the available dividend amount for AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock, the available dividend amount for Liberty Media Group tracking
stock, the available dividend amount for AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks and
the available dividend amount for AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock.

     Discrimination among classes of common shares.  The Consumer Services Group
tracking stock amendment does not provide for mandatory dividends. Provided that
there are sufficient assets to pay a dividend on a class of stock as described
under "-- General," our board of directors will have the sole authority and
discretion to declare and pay dividends (or to refrain from declaring or paying
dividends), in equal or unequal amounts, on AT&T common stock, AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stocks, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, any other
class of AT&T common shares or any two or more of these classes. Subject to not
exceeding the applicable available dividend amount, our board of directors has
this power regardless of the relative available dividend amounts, prior dividend
amounts declared, liquidation rights or any other factor.

     SHARE DISTRIBUTIONS

     Subject to the provisions of Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stocks and AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T may
declare and pay a distribution consisting of shares of AT&T common stock, AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock or any other securities of AT&T or any
other person to holders of AT&T common stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock only in accordance with the provisions described below. We refer
to this type of distribution as a "share distribution."

     Distributions on AT&T common stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock. Subject to any limitations imposed by the terms of Liberty Media Group
tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock, AT&T may declare and pay a share distribution to holders of AT&T
common stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock or any other class of
AT&T common shares consisting of any securities of AT&T, any subsidiary of AT&T,
or any other person. However, securities attributable to a group may be
distributed to holders of another group only for consideration. In the case of
shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock distributed to holders of
AT&T common stock, the

                                       103
   110

consideration may consist, in whole or in part, of a decrease in the retained
portion of the value, if any, held by AT&T Business Services Group in AT&T
Consumer Services Group.

     Discrimination among classes of AT&T common shares.  The Consumer Services
Group tracking stock amendment does not provide for mandatory share
distributions. Subject to the restrictions described above or that are in effect
regarding Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking
stocks or AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, our board of directors will have
the sole authority and discretion to declare and pay share distributions (or to
refrain from declaring or paying share distributions), in equal or unequal
amounts, on AT&T common stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock,
Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks, AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock, any other class of AT&T common shares or any two
or more of these classes. Subject to not exceeding the applicable available
dividend amounts, our board of directors has this power regardless of the
relative available dividend amounts, prior share distributions amounts declared,
liquidation rights or any other factor.

     REDEMPTION

     Redemption in exchange for shares of another tracking stock.  At any time
our board of directors may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock for a new tracking stock of another entity that
owns all of the material assets and liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services Group.
In order to effect a redemption of this type, the new tracking stock must have
substantially the same terms as those governing AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock as contained in AT&T's charter and by-laws, including with regard
to the definition of "AT&T Consumer Services Group." In the event of a
redemption of this type, the voting rights of the new tracking stock will be set
based on the ratio, over a fixed measurement period, of the initial trading
prices of this new tracking stock to trading prices of the common stock of the
new entity of which the new tracking stock is a part. In connection with the
spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., we expect to redeem all
outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for shares of
the new Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

     Redemption in exchange for shares of AT&T common stock at option of our
board of directors. At any time following either the occurrence of tax-related
events or the           anniversary of the date that AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock initially is issued, our board of directors, in its sole
discretion, may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock for shares of AT&T common stock. In this event, each share of
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will be redeemed in exchange for
that number of shares of AT&T common stock, calculated to the nearest 1/10,000,
equal to      % of the ratio of the average market price per share of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock to the average market price per share of
AT&T common stock.

     In this case, the average market price per share of AT&T common stock or
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, as the case may be, means the
average of the daily market value per share for such AT&T common stock or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock for the 40 consecutive trading days
ending on the 15th trading day prior to the date notice of the redemption is
mailed to holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

     In order to redeem AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock on the basis
of a tax-related event, AT&T must obtain the opinion of counsel that, as a
result of an amendment to or change (or prospective change) in a law or an
interpretation of the law that takes place after AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock is issued, there is more than an insubstantial risk that:

     - any issuance of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock would be
       treated as a sale or other taxable disposition by AT&T or any of its
       subsidiaries of any of the assets, operations or relevant subsidiaries
       underlying AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock;

                                       104
   111

     - the existence of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock would
       subject AT&T, its subsidiaries or its affiliates, or any of their
       respective successors to the imposition of tax or other adverse tax
       consequences; or

     - either AT&T common stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock
       would not be treated solely as common stock of AT&T.

     Redemption in exchange for stock of qualifying subsidiaries at option of
our board of directors. The Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment
also provides that AT&T may, at any time, redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock in exchange for a specified number of
outstanding shares of common stock of a subsidiary of AT&T that satisfies
certain requirements under the Code and that holds all of the assets and
liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services Group. We refer to a subsidiary that
satisfies these requirements as a "qualifying subsidiary." This type of
redemption only may be made on a pro rata basis, and must be tax free to the
holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, except with respect to
any cash that holders receive in lieu of fractional shares.

     In this case, we would exchange each share of AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock, on a pro rata basis, for an aggregate number of shares of common
stock of the qualifying subsidiary equal to the number of outstanding shares of
common stock of the qualifying subsidiary held by AT&T.

     Redemption in connection with certain significant transactions.  In the
event of a sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition by AT&T in a
transaction or series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of
the properties and assets of AT&T Consumer Services Group, AT&T generally is
required to take one of the following actions, which action will be selected in
the sole discretion of our board of directors:

     - AT&T may redeem each outstanding share of AT&T Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock in exchange for a number of shares of AT&T common stock
       (calculated to the nearest 1/10,000) equal to      % of the ratio of the
       average market price per share of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
       stock to the average market price per share of AT&T common stock.

     - Subject to limitations, AT&T may declare and pay a dividend in cash
       and/or in securities (other than AT&T common stock) or other property to
       holders of the outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock equally on a share-for-share basis in an aggregate amount
       equal to the net proceeds of the disposition allocable to AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock.

     - Subject to limitations, if the disposition involves the disposition of
       all, not merely substantially all, of the properties and assets of AT&T
       Consumer Services Group, AT&T may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T
       Consumer Services Group tracking stock in exchange for cash and/or
       securities or other property in an aggregate amount equal to the net
       proceeds of the disposition allocable to AT&T Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock.

     - Subject to limitations, if the disposition involves substantially all,
       but not all, of the properties and assets of AT&T Consumer Services
       Group, AT&T may redeem a number of outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock in exchange for a redemption price equal to
       the net proceeds of that disposition. The number of shares of AT&T
       Consumer Services Group tracking stock to be redeemed would be equal to
       the lesser of (1) a number determined by dividing the aggregate amount
       allocated to the redemption of these shares by the average market value
       of one share of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock during the
       10-trading-day period beginning on the 15th trading day following the
       completion of that disposition and (2) the total number of outstanding
       shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

                                       105
   112

     - Subject to limitations, AT&T may take a combination of the actions
       described in the preceding bullets whereby AT&T may redeem some shares of
       AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock in exchange for shares of
       AT&T common stock at the exchange rate described in the first bullet
       above, and use an amount equal to a portion of the net proceeds of the
       disposition allocable to AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to
       either (1) declare and pay a dividend as described in the second bullet
       above, or (2) redeem part or all of the remaining shares of AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock as described in the third or fourth bullet
       above.

     For purposes of these provisions, "substantially all of the properties and
assets" of AT&T Consumer Services Group as of any date means a portion of these
properties and assets that represents at least 80% of the fair value of the
properties and assets attributed to AT&T Consumer Services Group as of that
date.

     Certain exceptions.  The provisions described under "-- Redemption in
connection with certain significant transactions" will not apply, and AT&T will
not be required to redeem any securities or make any dividend or other
distribution it would otherwise be required to make, in some circumstances,
including the following:

     - if, in connection with the underlying transaction, our board of directors
       redeems all outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
       stock for a new tracking stock of another entity that owns all of the
       material assets and liabilities of AT&T Broadband Group pursuant to
       "-- Redemption in exchange for shares of another tracking stock";

     - if the underlying disposition is conditioned upon the affirmative vote of
       a majority of holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock,
       voting as a separate class;

     - if the disposition is in connection with a liquidation of AT&T;

     - if the disposition is to a person or group of which AT&T is the majority
       owner and AT&T Consumer Services Group receives in exchange primarily
       equity securities of that person or group as consideration;

     - in connection with a spin-off or similar distribution of AT&T's entire
       interest in AT&T Consumer Services Group to the holders of AT&T Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock, including a distribution that is made in
       connection with a mandatory redemption as described under "-- Redemption
       in exchange for shares of AT&T common stock at option of our board of
       directors" or "-- Redemption in exchange for stock of qualifying
       subsidiaries at option of our board of directors"; and

     - in connection with a "related business transaction," which generally
       means a disposition of all or substantially all of the assets attributed
       to AT&T Consumer Services Group in which AT&T receives equity securities
       of an entity that engages or proposes to engage primarily in one or more
       businesses similar or complementary to the businesses conducted by AT&T
       Consumer Services Group prior to that transaction.

     GENERAL PROCEDURES

     Conditions.  With regard to any redemption at the discretion of our board
of directors, our board of directors may, in its discretion, condition such
redemption on the occurrence or failure to occur of any events set forth in the
applicable notice of redemption. Our board of directors will have the right to
waive any of these conditions in its sole discretion.

     Public announcements; notices.  The Consumer Services Group tracking stock
amendment provides that, in the case of specified dispositions or a redemption,
AT&T will publicly announce or otherwise provide specified information to
holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock and, in the case of
redemption at the discretion of our board of directors, give the notice of
redemption no less than 15 days prior to the date of redemption.

                                       106
   113

     Fractional shares.  Our board of directors will not have to issue or
deliver any fractional shares to any holder of AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock upon any redemption, dividend or other distribution under the
provisions described under "-- Redemption." Instead of issuing fractional
shares, AT&T will pay cash for the fractional share in an amount equal to the
fair market value of the fractional share, without interest.

     No adjustments for dividends or other distributions.  No adjustments for
dividends will be made upon the exchange of any shares of AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock; except that, if a redemption date with respect to AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock comes after the record date for the
payment of a dividend or other distribution to be paid on AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock but before the payment or distribution, the registered
holders of those shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock at the
close of business on that record date will be entitled to receive the dividend
or other distribution on the payment date, notwithstanding the redemption of
those shares of stock or AT&T's default in payment of the dividend or
distribution.

     Payment of taxes.  If any person exchanging a certificate representing
shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock wants us to issue a
certificate in a different name than the registered name on the old certificate,
that person must pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the
issuance of the certificate in another name, or establish, to the satisfaction
of AT&T or its agent, that the tax has been paid or is not applicable.

     LIQUIDATION RIGHTS

     In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of AT&T, whether
voluntary or involuntary, AT&T will first pay or provide for payment of debts
and other liabilities of AT&T, including the liquidation preferences of any
class or series of AT&T preferred stock. Thereafter, holders of the shares of
AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock and any other class of AT&T common shares will share in the
funds of AT&T remaining for distribution to its common shareholders in
proportion to the aggregate market capitalization of the outstanding shares of
each class of stock, as applicable, to the aggregate market capitalization of
all the classes of AT&T common shares. AT&T will calculate the market
capitalizations based on the 20-trading-day period ending on the trading day
prior to the date of the public announcement of the liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of AT&T.

     None of the following, by itself, will constitute a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of AT&T:

     - the consolidation or merger of AT&T with or into any other corporation or
       corporations or the sale, transfer or lease of all or substantially all
       of the assets of AT&T;

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in AT&T Consumer Services Group being
       held by one or more AT&T Consumer Services Group subsidiaries and the
       distribution of AT&T Consumer Services Group subsidiaries, and no other
       material assets or liabilities, to the holders of the outstanding AT&T
       Consumer Services Group tracking stock;

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in Liberty Media Group being held by
       one or more Liberty Media Group subsidiaries and the distribution of
       these Liberty Media Group subsidiaries, and no other material assets or
       liabilities, to the holders of outstanding Liberty Media Group tracking
       stock (but this will be subject to the provisions relating to the
       redemption of shares of Liberty Media Group tracking stock described in
       our charter);

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in AT&T Wireless Group being held by
       one or more AT&T Wireless Group subsidiaries and the distribution of
       these AT&T Wireless Group subsidiaries, and no other material assets or
       liabilities, to the holders of outstanding AT&T Wireless Group tracking

                                       107
   114

       stock (but this will be subject to the provisions relating to the
       redemption of shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock described in
       our charter); or

     - any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of
       the assets and liabilities included in AT&T Broadband Group being held by
       one or more AT&T Broadband Group subsidiaries and the distribution of
       these AT&T Broadband Group subsidiaries, and no other material assets or
       liabilities, to the holders of outstanding AT&T Broadband Group tracking
       stock (but this will be subject to the provisions relating to the
       redemption of shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock described in
       our charter).

     DETERMINATIONS BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Any determinations made by our board of directors under any provision
described in this section "-- Terms of the Consumer Services Group Tracking
Stock Amendment" will be final and binding on all shareholders of AT&T, except
as may otherwise be required by law. AT&T will prepare a statement of any
determination by our board of directors respecting the fair market value of any
properties, assets or securities, and will file the statement with our Corporate
Secretary.

     NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

     Holders of AT&T common stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock,
Liberty Media Group tracking stock, AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks or AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock do not have any preemptive rights to subscribe
for any additional shares of capital stock or other obligations convertible into
or exercisable for shares of capital stock that may hereafter be issued by AT&T.

DISTRIBUTION OF AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK

     We currently intend to distribute all of the shares of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock to holders of AT&T common stock as a dividend
later this year. Following the distribution, we expect that the outstanding
shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will reflect 100% of the
financial performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group.
However, our board of directors reserves the right to change the timing of the
distribution and to not create or distribute shares of AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock, or to distribute less than all of these shares.

     Our board of directors reserves the right to not create AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock or to not issue AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock once it is created or to distribute less than all of the shares
of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock if it is created.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     Subject to the discussion under this section, neither the adoption of the
Consumer Services Group tracking stock amendment nor the distribution of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock to holders of AT&T common stock will be
taxable to AT&T or holders of AT&T common stock.

     Holders of AT&T common stock who receive AT&T Consumer Services tracking
stock in a pro rata distribution will allocate their tax basis in AT&T common
stock between AT&T common stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock
in accordance with the relative fair market values of such stocks on the date on
which AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock is distributed. A holder's
holding period for AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will include such
holder's holding period of AT&T common stock with respect to which AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock is distributed.

     The conclusions in the two preceding paragraphs are not free from doubt.
These conclusions assume that AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock is
treated as a class of common stock of AT&T. The filing of consolidated income
tax returns by AT&T together with AT&T Consumer

                                       108
   115

Services Group also assumes that AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock is
treated as a class of common stock of AT&T. While AT&T believes that, under
current law, AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will be treated as
common stock of AT&T, there are no authorities directly on point nor will AT&T
receive an advance ruling from the Internal Revenue Service. There is a risk
that the Internal Revenue Service could assert that AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock is property other than common stock of AT&T. AT&T believes it is
unlikely the Internal Revenue Service would prevail on that view, but no
assurance can be given that the views expressed in the two preceding paragraphs,
if contested, would be sustained by a court.

     The foregoing discussion under this section "-- Material U.S. Federal
Income Tax Consequences" is only a general summary of the material federal
income tax consequences of the issuance and distribution of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock. It is not a complete analysis of all potential
tax effects relevant to the issuance or distribution of AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock. The discussion does not address consequences that may be
relevant to a particular AT&T common stock holder subject to special treatment
under U.S. federal income tax laws (such as dealers in securities, banks,
insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, non-U.S. persons, holders that
acquired their AT&T common stock pursuant to the exercise of options or
otherwise as compensation and holders that do not hold such shares as capital
assets, nor any consequences arising under any state, local or foreign
jurisdiction). The discussion is based on current provisions of the Code,
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial opinions, published
positions of the Internal Revenue Service, and all other applicable authorities,
all of which are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect).

     WE URGE YOU TO CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR CONCERNING THE U.S. FEDERAL,
STATE AND LOCAL, AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION
OF AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK TO YOU.

EFFECT OF THE SPIN-OFF OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group will be part of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. If we complete the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., all of
the assets and businesses of AT&T Consumer Services Group are expected to be
spun off as well and be part of the new entity. Under the terms of the Consumer
Services Group tracking stock amendment, our board of directors may redeem all
outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for shares of
the new Consumer Services Group tracking stock of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc., provided that the new Consumer Services Group tracking stock has
substantially the same terms as those governing AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock as contained in our charter and by-laws, including with regard to
the definition of "AT&T Consumer Services Group." Accordingly, in connection
with the spin-off, we expect to redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock for shares of the new Consumer Services Group
tracking stock, as permitted by the terms of the Consumer Services Group
tracking stock amendment. See "-- Terms of the Consumer Services Group Tracking
Stock Amendment -- Redemption."

describe under "Relationship among AT&T Groups -- The AT&T Groups Policy
Statement" and our board of directors' fiduciary duties.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

     The communications services industry continues to change both domestically
and internationally, providing significant opportunities and risks to the
participants in these markets. In the United States, the Telecommunications Act
has had a significant impact on AT&T Consumer Services Group's business by
establishing a statutory framework for opening the local service markets to
competition and by allowing RBOCs to provide in-region long distance services
bundled with their existing local franchise. In addition, prices for long
distance minutes and other basic communications services have declined as a
result of competitive pressures, the introduction of more efficient networks and
advanced technologies, product substitution, and deregulation. Competition in
the provision of basic communications services to consumers is based more on
price and less on other differentiating factors that appeal to the larger
business market customers, such as the range of services offered, bundling of
products, customer service, and communications quality, reliability and
availability.

     The consumer long distance market is characterized by rapid deregulation
and intense competition among long distance providers, and, more recently,
incumbent LECs. Under the Telecommunications Act, an RBOC may offer long
distance services in a state within its region if the FCC finds, first, that the
RBOC's service territory within the state has been sufficiently opened to local
competition, and second, that allowing the RBOC to provide these services is in
the public interest. To date, the FCC has granted this access to Verizon in New
York and Massachusetts and to SBC in Texas, Kansas and Oklahoma, and each of
these companies has applications pending with the FCC for authorization to offer
long distance services in other states within their respective regions. The
incumbent LECs presently have numerous advantages as a result of their historic
monopoly control over local exchanges. Additionally, in the next few years, AT&T
Consumer Services Group expects that Verizon and SBC will seek to enter
virtually all states in their regions and that other RBOCs will be given
permission to offer long distance services within their regions. AT&T Consumer
Services Group has challenged, and will continue to challenge, any of these
regulatory applications that do not meet the criteria envisioned by the
Telecommunications Act or the related rules relating to local competition issued
by the FCC. To date, these challenges have focused on the pricing of unbundled
network elements and on the adequacy of the RBOCs' operations support systems.

     Other important factors affecting the markets in which AT&T Consumer
Services Group competes include the development of new technologies and the
resulting increased availability of

                                       111
   118

domestic and international transmission capacity, and increasing competition
from entities that own their own access facilities. These developments, among
others, impact the degree to which AT&T Consumer Services Group's communications
services offerings are competitive with the services of other companies.

STRATEGY

     AT&T Consumer Services Group's goal is to maintain its leadership position
in the long distance market while utilizing its current consumer marketing
service capabilities to pursue new product or service opportunities. AT&T
Consumer Services Group believes that the following are key elements to enable
it to meet its goal:

     - maintain market leadership;

     - pursue new growth opportunities; and

     - leverage AT&T WorldNet Service's narrowband opportunities with long
       distance and migrate to broadband opportunities with DSL in key markets.

     MAINTAIN MARKET LEADERSHIP

     Focus marketing and retention efforts to maximize its share of high-value
long distance consumers.  Historically, the long distance communications
industry focused on market share, and marketing efforts were targeted to reach
mass audiences in order to maintain share. AT&T Consumer Services Group focuses
its marketing and retention efforts on high-value long distance customers, with
targeted offers and solicitations. AT&T Consumer Services Group narrowed new
customer solicitations in direct mail and outbound telemarketing only to
high-value customers with aggressively priced by the minute and block of time
calling plans. Further, high-value customers in AT&T Consumer Services Group's
embedded base have the opportunity to participate in a portfolio of
loyalty-centric plans. For example, high-value customers can earn rewards, such
as frequent flier miles, free cable programming or contributions to an
educational fund. AT&T Consumer Services Group believes that these high-value
customers are more likely to use offers of the AT&T Customer Services Group,
such as local toll, calling card, international plans, AT&T WorldNet Service
and, eventually, DSL, and are more desirable because their revenues are capable
of offsetting the cost of obtaining, provisioning and maintaining each customer.
Provisioning costs include the channel-related cost to acquire customers,
billing and customer care support. These expenses are relatively independent of
customer spending levels. Going forward, AT&T Consumer Services Group will seek
to create efficiencies and to generate new revenues through serving these
high-value customers. These efforts include cross-marketing telecommunications
and non-telecommunications services, new loyalty-based rewards, increased use of
leading-edge voice recognition technology and new billing and communication
options via the AT&T Consumer Services Group web site.

     Continue to hold a significant operating margin through operating cost
reductions.  AT&T Consumer Services Group has significantly reduced costs and
expenses over the past three years. These efforts were focused on access reform
and reductions in the cost associated with terminating international calls,
billing costs and headcount. As a result, AT&T Consumer Services Group has
reduced selling, general and administrative expenses by $1 billion and reduced
overall costs and expenses by $5 billion over the past three years.

     Continue to benefit from AT&T Consumer Services Group's relationship with
and use of the resources of AT&T, including the use of the AT&T brand and
network, cross-marketing opportunities and bundled offers.  AT&T Consumer
Services Group believes that its relationship with AT&T provides it with
significant competitive advantages, including:

     - use of the powerful AT&T brand name substantially in the same manner as
       it has been used by AT&T Consumer Services Group up to now consistent
       with guidelines to avoid confusion with certain competing services;

                                       112
   119

     - an opportunity to use AT&T Consumer Services Group sales channels through
       cross-marketing arrangements and, where appropriate, through bundled
       offers, (as may be agreed by AT&T, AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T Consumer
       Services Group and AT&T Wireless Group), of AT&T Consumer Services Group
       with services of other AT&T groups;

     - use of specified AT&T intellectual property and technology;

     - use of the AT&T network on contractual terms; and

     - potential benefits from certain AT&T purchasing contracts with suppliers
       where permitted by existing contracts or where arrangements can be made
       with these suppliers.

     AT&T brand.  The AT&T brand is one of the best known and respected brand
names in the United States. AT&T Consumer Services Group believes that the AT&T
brand positively impacts consumer awareness of, and confidence in, AT&T Consumer
Services Group's products and services. In addition, as competition in the
consumer services communications industry intensifies, AT&T Consumer Services
Group believes that the power of a strong national brand plays an increasingly
important role in consumers' purchasing decisions.

     Marketing.  AT&T Consumer Services Group believes that its relationship
with AT&T's other groups has and can continue to provide substantial marketing
advantages. AT&T Consumer Services Group will be able, in certain circumstances,
to use its sales channels to market the services of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T
Wireless Group in exchange for a marketing fee. In addition, AT&T Business
Services Group, AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group will have
the opportunity to cooperatively bundle offers of services designed for targeted
markets.

     Technology.  AT&T Consumer Services Group will continue to have the
advantage of being able to use specified AT&T proprietary intellectual property
and technology as well as specified intellectual property that AT&T has the
right to use through licensing or other arrangements.

     Purchasing power.  AT&T is one of the largest communications carriers in
the world, and, as such, has substantial leverage in the industry with major
equipment and other suppliers. AT&T's ability to purchase large amounts of goods
has enabled it to obtain favorable pricing and other terms with those suppliers.
Through contractual and other arrangements, AT&T Consumer Services Group may be
able to participate in certain of AT&T's supplier contracts, either directly or
in making its own purchasing arrangements where those contracts allow for this
and the vendors agree to this. In addition, AT&T Consumer Services Group already
has developed its own relationships with many of these vendors and believes that
it will be able effectively to negotiate independent agreements where necessary
or appropriate.

     PURSUE NEW GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES

     Provide communication services to customers by bundling AT&T long distance
with local resale, Internet services and DSL opportunities.  AT&T Consumer
Services Group believes there are substantial opportunities to provide
profitable communication services to customers by bundling AT&T long distance
with local resale, AT&T WorldNet Services and high-speed Internet access
services on a DSL platform.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group currently provides local service in eight
markets via resale. The largest portions of these customers are in New York and
Texas. AT&T Consumer Services Group entered both of these markets in late 1999.
Over the course of 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group added bundled local and
long distance customers.

     Integrated high-speed data and voice services.  AT&T Consumer Services
Group has been laying the groundwork for moving from traditional narrowband
telecommunications to broadband telecommunications. AT&T Consumer Services Group
plans to focus on creating offers consistent with the evolution of communication
services and leveraging the DSL platform currently being put in place.

                                       113
   120

     DSL takes advantage of the full spectrum of bandwidth provided by
traditional telephone "twisted pair" copper. At the customer site, once
installed, the DSL modem provides the customer with a continuous connection to
the Internet, initially through AT&T WorldNet Service. Creating this always-on
connection means no dial-up access. The typical residential offering features
connection speeds up to 25 times faster than current 56k modem technology.
Faster connection speeds not only will provide users with a more appealing
Internet experience, but creates a DSL platform for AT&T Consumer Services Group
to offer a variety of new services, including real-time video conferencing,
voice-over-DSL and high-speed Internet access.

     The DSL platform broadens AT&T Consumer Services Group's franchise from
long distance and local voice services to telephony and communication, whether
voice, Internet, data, e-mail or messaging. AT&T Consumer Services Group
considers the DSL platform a means to extend the relationship with its current
and future customer base. The DSL platform is intended to position AT&T Consumer
Services Group as the personal communications provider for those consumers who
want to evolve with technology and simplify their lives. While the consumer will
see the great benefits and increased value of an integrated communications
platform of voice, high-speed access and data, AT&T Consumer Services Group
considers DSL platform services a growth opportunity, both in terms of extending
AT&T Consumer Services Group's franchise as well as increasing revenue per
subscriber.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group expects to launch our integrated high-speed
data and voice service into the consumer marketplace in late 2001 on a trial
basis. AT&T Consumer Services Group plans to offer the consumer marketplace a
choice of DSL platform services based on customer needs, including connection
speed and appropriate price levels. AT&T Consumer Services Group plans to expand
its services strategically throughout 2002 and beyond. This roll-out strategy is
intended to afford AT&T Consumer Services Group the opportunity to get the right
offer in the market to the right consumer using the latest, most efficient
technologies under the right connectivity conditions.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group believes that both the current capabilities of
its DSL platform and the near-term promise of future enhancements offer
significant opportunities. AT&T Consumer Services Group expects that its
consumer offering by late 2001 will feature the following:

     - a high-speed data connection delivered over existing copper telephone
       wires so that voice and data can be used simultaneously with no need for
       additional lines for the personal computer;

     - download speeds substantially faster than a 28.8 kilobits per second
       modem;

     - access to audio, video and enhanced graphics over the Internet since
       consumers are most interested in this service for graphics-heavy files,
       large documents, photos, e-mail attachments and VOD;

     - a completely e-enabled customer experience from pre-qualification up to
       and including order status, billing inquiries and ongoing customer care;

     - integrated voice and high-speed data offer using DSL to be sold as a
       bundle;

     - high-speed, always-on Internet access service and DSL modem that plugs
       into a customer's telephone jack as do current analog modems;

     - expert installation and technical support;

     - the reliability and security of the AT&T global Internet network; and

     - Internet and intranet access for telecommuters.

     As part of the March 28, 2000 agreement among AT&T, Excite@Home, Comcast
and Cox relating to the reorganization of the governance and distribution
arrangements of Excite@Home, AT&T agreed that, until June 4, 2006, AT&T will not
provide AT&T-branded wireline high-speed Internet access services to residential
customers in the United States in areas that are served by the

                                       114
   121

cable systems of Comcast or Cox. AT&T's obligation will terminate automatically
as to either Comcast or Cox if Comcast or Cox, as the case may be, does not
continue to use Excite@Home as its primary provider of high-speed cable Internet
services in substantially all of its U.S. cable systems. This agreement could be
terminated by either Cox or Comcast as early as June 2002. AT&T further agreed
to use all reasonable efforts to cause its subsidiaries and affiliates to comply
with the provisions, terms and obligations of that agreement that are applicable
to them. If this agreement is interpreted to apply to the activities of AT&T
Consumer Services Group, it could limit AT&T Consumer Services Group's ability
to provide some wireline high-speed Internet services in the geographic areas
where Comcast and Cox have cable systems and could have an adverse effect on
AT&T Consumer Services Group's ability to expand and grow its wireline
high-speed Internet business generally or to achieve economies of scale in that
business.

     LEVERAGE AT&T WORLDNET SERVICE'S NARROWBAND OPPORTUNITIES WITH LONG
     DISTANCE AND MIGRATE TO BROADBAND OPPORTUNITIES WITH DSL IN KEY MARKETS

     AT&T WorldNet Service currently has narrowband subscribers that use IP
communication services within the AT&T WorldNet Service offer, such as e-mail,
calendar and alerting. AT&T Consumer Services Group plans to extend IP
communication services to its base of long distance customers via bridge offers
and bundles. AT&T Consumer Services Group's objective is to increase usage by
the long distance customer base of AT&T Consumer Services Group's IP-based
services and then migrate those customers to more advanced IP-based services,
such as Voice Mail. Once the IP-based offers are readily available, AT&T
Consumer Services Group plans to market its DSL offers to both the narrowband
customer base and the long distance customer base, including those customers who
use IP communication services.

SERVICES AND PRODUCTS

     LONG DISTANCE

     AT&T Consumer Services Group provides interstate and intrastate long
distance telecommunications services throughout the continental United States
and provides, or joins in providing with other carriers, telecommunications
services to and from Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands and
international telecommunications services to and from virtually all nations and
territories around the world. Consumers can use AT&T Consumer Services' domestic
and international long distance services through traditional "one plus" dialing
of the desired call destination, through dial-up access or through use of AT&T
calling cards.

     AT&T purchases transport services from Concert for the delivery and receipt
of AT&T's international service. In accordance with the terms of the operating
agreements Concert has with foreign carriers throughout the world, the cost of
transporting AT&T's traffic is sensitive to changes in international settlement
rates and international traffic routing patterns.

     In the continental United States, AT&T Consumer Services Group provides
long distance telecommunications services over AT&T Business Services Group's
backbone network. International telecommunications services are provided by
submarine cable systems in which Concert holds investment positions, satellites
and facilities of other domestic and foreign carriers.

     Calling Card.  AT&T Consumer Services Group provides a fast, easy to use,
convenient way for placing all "away from home" calls. The AT&T calling card can
be used to place domestic and international calls in the U.S. and Canada by
accessing 1-800CALLATT, 10-10-288 or 0+ the number dialed. Features include
purchase limits, geographic restrictions, native language preference, voice
messaging and sequence dialing. Customers can place calls over the AT&T network
by using any of the following options: AT&T calling cards, LEC cards and
commercial credit cards.

     TRANSACTION-BASED SERVICES

     AT&T Consumer Services Group offers a variety of transaction-based services
that are designed to provide customers with an alternative to access long
distance services as well as to provide assistance in completing long distance
communications.

     Operator Services.  Traditional Collect, Billed to Third Number, Person to
Person and Coin Sent Paid are the family of operator-assisted calling services.

     Directory Assistance.  Directory Assistance is provided to customers both
domestically and internationally, with an option to complete the call for a
nominal extra charge.

     AT&T Direct Services.  AT&T Consumer Services Group provides customers with
the ability to reach the AT&T network from outside the U.S. By dialing the
access code associated with the country of origin, customers can receive all the
benefits of our calling card and operator-assisted calling services.

     True Message.  AT&T True Messages is a voice store and forward service.
Using this service, callers can record a message in their own voice and have it
delivered to a telephone number that they called or they can access AT&T True
Messages directly and send a message.

     Accessible Communication Service.  AT&T Consumer Services Group provides
Telecommunications Relay Service for the deaf and hearing-impaired customers to
help them communicate with anyone in the world on the phone.

     1-800CALLATT (Collect).  1-800CALLATT for collect calls continues to be
AT&T Consumer Services Group's lead discounted collect calling offer in the
operator services portfolio. 1-800CALLATT is a domestic, automated, flat-rate
collect calling service. The service is targeted at price conscious consumers
and advertised nationally through multiple media channels. Optional collect
messaging capabilities exist as well.

     AT&T Prepaid Card.  AT&T prepaid cards provide local, long distance and
international calls charged to an AT&T prepaid card account maintained on AT&T's
prepaid platform. The AT&T prepaid card service is available 24 hours a day, 7
days a week. The service is accessed using an 800 number printed on the card and
entering the card PIN number, also printed on the card. This PIN number is
unique to each card issued. An announcement confirms the time remaining on the
card. The user then dials the telephone number they wish to reach, and the call
is completed. The user's call will be interrupted with an announcement when the
balance is about to be depleted. This announcement will occur one minute prior
to depletion, based on the terminating location of the call. Call times are
billed in one-minute increments. Recorded prompts and announcements are
available in both English and Spanish. AT&T prepaid cards are available in both
minute- and dollar-based denominations. Minute-based denominations are based on
U.S. domestic calling rates. Currently, AT&T prepaid cards are available in over
60,000 retail locations of various types including grocery, drug, convenience,
mass merchandise, wholesale clubs, electronics/office and military/government.

     10-10-345.  10-10-345 is a non-AT&T-branded dial-around service that allows
customers an alternative way to make a long distance call. The service is
targeted at price-savvy, budget-conscious dial-around and other common carriers'
users completing domestic and/or international calls from home. A customer can
use the service by dialing 10-10-345 + 1 + area code + number for domestic calls
and 10-10-345 + 011 + country code + number for international calls. When a
customer dials 10-10-345, they pay a competitive per-minute rate, 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week with a minimal surcharge per call. Charges made for calls
using 10-10-345 are billed through the local telephone company.

     LOCAL AND LONG DISTANCE

     In August 1999, AT&T Consumer Services Group began offering residential
customers in New York and Texas local service via UNE-P bundled together with
intraLATA and long distance services resulting in a package of complete phone
service from one company on one bill. The local services are priced roughly at
parity with those offered by the incumbent RBOC and are available with AT&T
Consumer Services Group's most popular local toll and long distance rates.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group provides local service to customers by using
the incumbent LEC's local phone service using combinations of incumbent LEC
unbundled network elements, as well as incumbent LEC unbundled loops (which can
be combined with switching, transport and other network elements) to support
differentiated voice and data services. However, this fact is transparent to the
customer. AT&T Consumer Services Group handles all aspects of the phone service
for the customer, including ordering, customer service, billing and inside
wiring. AT&T Consumer Services Group also offers many of the same local calling
features as the incumbent LECs, such as Call Waiting and Caller ID.

     AT&T WORLDNET SERVICE

     AT&T offers dial-up Internet access to consumers through its award-winning
AT&T WorldNet Service, a leading provider of Internet access service in the
United States.

     In 1999, AT&T WorldNet Service began offering members an AT&T-branded
search engine as part of the redesign of the AT&T's website, and enhanced
several other subscriber features, including increasing the disk storage space
for personal web pages to 10 megabytes for each e-mail id (six e-mail ids per
account, 60 megabytes of disk storage) and providing a template that helps
members build personal web pages quickly and easily. AT&T WorldNet Service also
offers the AT&T Any Who Internet directory, as well as AT&T-branded advanced
communications services, such as instant messaging. The AT&T WorldNet web site
also serves as a stand-alone Internet portal and, together with the AT&T Any Who
Internet directory and the advanced communications services, are also available
to, and are used by, nonsubscribers to AT&T WorldNet Service.

     In 2000, AT&T WorldNet Service began offering members Internet service that
includes a persistently present toolbar that displays advertising to subscribers
even when they are on web sites other than those operated by AT&T. This new
service was marketed directly by AT&T WorldNet Service and indirectly through
several major distribution arrangements.

     J.D. Power and Associates ranked AT&T WorldNet Service #1 in "Customer
Satisfaction" among the largest national ISPs in their 2000 National ISP
Customer Satisfaction Study based on 4,173 responses. AT&T WorldNet Service
earned its top position of overall customer satisfaction based on seven factors,
including speed/availability, cost/billing/image, suitability of
services/content, customer care/technical support, e-mail services,
navigation/access to other portals and ease of use. In November, PC World gave
AT&T WorldNet Service their "Best Buy" award, noting AT&T WorldNet Service's
outstanding dial-up speed, high connection success rate and extras, such as
multiple e-mail boxes, and superior support.

     AT&T WorldNet Service generates revenues principally through subscription
and usage fees, as well as from electronic commerce and advertising. AT&T
WorldNet Service offers a variety of pricing plan options, including bundled
options with AT&T long distance and AT&T wireless offers. Generally, customers
are charged a flat rate for a certain number of hours with charges for each
additional hour of usage. AT&T WorldNet Service also offers a plan without a
usage restriction.

     AT&T WorldNet Service's marketing programs are designed to attract and
retain high-value customers. AT&T Consumer Services Group seeks to build brand
recognition and customer loyalty and to make it easy for consumers to try, and
stay with, AT&T WorldNet Service. In addition to direct marketing through brand
name mass advertising, direct mail and magazine insert promotions

                                       117
   124

and bundling offers, AT&T WorldNet Service maintains a large indirect channel
marketing effort. Through this indirect channel, AT&T WorldNet Service software
is bundled in new computers produced by major manufacturers and is included in
millions of software titles published by independent software vendors. AT&T
WorldNet Service also has a co-branded ISP offer that enables businesses to
offer customers their own branded, full-featured Internet access in affiliation
with AT&T.

LONG DISTANCE MARKETING

     AT&T Consumer Services Group develops customer awareness through its
marketing and promotion efforts. AT&T Consumer Services Group uses the AT&T
brand name and provides superior customer care. AT&T Consumer Services Group
reinforces its brand position in the market through direct mail, outbound
telemarketing, the mass media, bill inserts and network announcements in eleven
different languages in the aggregate.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group offers customers a family of calling plans.
These calling plans are simple and are consistently offered on the web and over
the telephone. Further, these plans offer customers a broad choice of price
points to meet their needs. The newest plan, AT&T 7/7, introduced in February
2001, offers customers combined Internet access and phone service for a $7
monthly fee. The service provides customers unlimited access to the Internet and
a round-the-clock rate of 7 cents a minute for state-to-state long distance
calls from home.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group also offers various reward and partnership
programs for high-value customers. For example, customers enrolled in AT&T
rewards receive redemption options every six months based on their long distance
spending. AT&T Consumer Services Group partnerships with companies such as
Continental Airlines, Inc., Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. and
Cablevision, among others, provide customers with options ranging from airline
miles to hotel nights to premium cable channel upgrades. Through one of the most
recent partnerships, announced in January 2001 with Upromise Inc., the customer
can receive a contribution equal to 4% of the cost of residential long distance
calls made into an Upromise savings account to be used for education.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group provides its customers with excellent customer
care and support. J.D. Power and Associates' 2000 Customer Satisfaction Survey
ranked AT&T Consumer Services Group highest in residential long distance
satisfaction for customers with monthly charges in excess of $50, and strongest
in the areas of customer service, corporate image, communications and operators.
There are 26 service centers, handling 9 million calls per month, in eleven
different languages.

SALES

     AT&T Consumer Services Group markets its products and services to a broad
spectrum of customers seeking to communicate locally or globally. AT&T Consumer
Services Group predominantly markets under the AT&T brand with the exception of
its 10-10-345 service. AT&T Consumer Services Group extensively utilizes direct
marketing channels, including the Internet, direct mail, mass media, probe and
transfer, and outbound telemarketing to communicate with its existing customer
base as well as to market to prospective customers regarding the breadth of
services available to them. AT&T Consumer Services Group's marketing efforts
focus on offering its services to its customers based on their unique needs.
These efforts involve the selling of stand-alone services, such as long
distance, local and AT&T WorldNet Service, as well as bundled service offerings
including long distance/AT&T WorldNet Service, long distance/local, and long
distance/calling card.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group relies on an integrated sales and service team
to solicit and handle customer contact opportunities. The customer care centers
consist of a network of internal and external vendors. The breadth of support
provided by the centers ranges from universal sales and service (multiple
services and functions) to specialized services based on functional area (local,
long

                                       118
   125

distance, etc.) or customer needs (domestic, global (including languages other
than English), regional, etc.). AT&T Consumer Services Group generally pays its
vendors based on a contracted hourly rate; however, it is aggressively moving to
a pay-for-performance scale methodology.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group also has begun to implement various
initiatives aimed at improving the overall quality of its sales channels as well
as lowering its costs of adding new subscribers. Recent initiatives targeted at
reducing costs and enhancing channel efficiencies have included the expansion of
AT&T Consumer Services Group's on-line capacity and capabilities (including
billing, sales and service) and the increased use of interactive voice response
technology, including "How may I help you," a natural language interactive
system now in trial and scheduled for full deployment mid-2001.

RATES AND BILLING

     AT&T Consumer Services Group charges long distance customers based on
applicable tariffs filed with the FCC and individual states. Effective as of
August 1, 2001, the rate for state-to-state and international calls will be set
by contract rather than by FCC tariffs as a result of the FCC de-tariffing
order. Customers select different services and various rate plans, which
determine the price per minute that customers pay on their long distance calls.
Rates typically vary based on a variety of factors, particularly the volume of
usage and the day and time that calls are made.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group long distance charges may include fees per
minute for transporting a call, per call or per minute surcharges, monthly
recurring charges, minimums and price structures that offer a fixed number of
minutes each month for a specific price. The fees per minute for transporting a
call may vary by time of day or length of call and by whether the call is
domestic or international. Within the United States, in-state rates may vary
from interstate rates. These rate structures apply to customer dialed calls,
calling card calls, directory assistance calls, operator-assisted calls and
certain miscellaneous services. Customers also may be assessed a percentage of
revenue, or a fixed monthly fee, to satisfy AT&T Consumer Services Group's
obligations to recover U.S. federal-and state-mandated assessments and access
surcharges.

ELECTRONIC CONSUMER RELATIONSHIPS

     The evolution of the Internet has created a number of new business
opportunities for AT&T Consumer Services Group. AT&T Consumer Services Group is
pursuing an e-enabling strategy designed to create a more convenient,
interactive relationship with the consumer, while streamlining its existing
processes and reducing the costs of providing services.

     Through the use of digital technologies, AT&T Consumer Services Group is
attempting to build a cost-effective, loyalty-enhancing relationship with its
most profitable customers. AT&T Consumer Services Group's efforts center on
making it easier for customers to do business with AT&T, and are seeking to bond
customers to the unique level of convenience and value-added services only the
Internet can provide. Monthly, an average of two million visitors come to AT&T
Consumer Services Group's web site to learn about new offers, order services and
find information that will help them stay more connected while traveling, or to
make service inquiries. To further the relationship with specific customer
segments, AT&T Consumer Services Group provides access to information in 5
languages other than English. These transactions increase consumer satisfaction
by providing a new level of control and, in many cases, reduce time consuming
contacts with AT&T Consumer Services Group's care and sales channels.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group's e-consumer strategy embodies the entire
business process from advertising and marketing through sales, ordering,
billing, fulfillment, customer service, and after-sales support. AT&T Consumer
Services Group is supplying a full range of product information, bill management
utilities and customer care capabilities designed to attract and retain its most
valuable customers. AT&T Consumer Services Group's on-line billing
infrastructure enables customers

                                       119
   126

to view, sort, adjust, investigate and resolve questions regarding their billing
statements. In 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group increased its e-billed
customer base by 66%, more than double the industry growth rate. AT&T Consumer
Services Group aims to grow on-line sign-ups of customers.

     Through the continued deployment of digital technology, AT&T Consumer
Services Group is building a new business model that can provide advantages over
its competitors in ways that did not exist just a couple of years ago. AT&T
Consumer Services Group plans to leverage the emerging opportunities the
Internet affords it to create a more efficient and streamlined business and to
create a personalized customer experience that will increase the value and
longevity of its customer relationships.

COMPETITION

     Competition in communications services is based on price and pricing plans,
types of services offered, customer service, access to customer premises and
communications quality, reliability and availability. AT&T Consumer Services
Group's principal competitors include Worldcom, Inc., Sprint Corporation and
RBOCs. AT&T also experiences significant competition in long distance from dial-
around resellers.

     Incumbent LECs have very substantial capital and other resources,
long-standing customer relationships and extensive existing facilities and
network rights-of-way, and are AT&T Consumer Services Group's primary
competitors in the local services market. In addition, it is anticipated that a
number of long distance telecommunication, wireless and cable service providers
and others will enter the local services market in competition with AT&T
Consumer Services Group. Some of these potential competitors have substantial
financial and other resources. AT&T Consumer Services Group also will compete in
the local services market with a number of competitive LECs, a few of which have
existing local networks and significant financial resources. See "Risk Factors
Relating to AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services
Group -- AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group face
substantial competition."

     AT&T Consumer Services Group currently faces significant competition and
expects that the level of competition will continue to increase. As competitive,
regulatory and technological changes occur, including those occasioned by the
Telecommunications Act described under "-- Legislative and Regulatory
Developments -- Telecommunications Act of 1996," AT&T Consumer Services Group
anticipates that new and different competitors will enter and expand their
position in the communications services markets. These may include entrants from
other segments of the communications and information services industry or global
competitors seeking to expand their market opportunities. Many of these new
competitors are likely to enter with a strong market presence, well-recognized
names and pre-existing direct customer relationships.

     The Telecommunications Act already has impacted the competitive
environment. Anticipating changes in the industry, non-RBOC LECs, which are not
required to implement the Telecommunications Act's competitive checklist prior
to offering long distance in their home markets, have begun integrating their
local service offerings with long distance offerings in advance of AT&T Consumer
Services Group's offering combined local and long distance service in these
areas, adversely affecting AT&T Consumer Services Group's revenues and earnings
in these service regions.

     In addition, the Telecommunications Act permits RBOCs to provide interLATA
interexchange services after demonstrating to the FCC that providing these
services is in the public interest and satisfying the conditions for developing
local competition established by the Telecommunications Act. See "-- Legislative
and Regulatory Developments -- Telecommunications Act of 1996." RBOCs have
petitioned the FCC for permission to provide interLATA interexchange services in
one or more states within their home markets. In December 1999, Verizon became
the first RBOC to obtain approval to provide long distance in a state within its
home territory, in New York, and was granted authorization to provide long
distance service in Massachusetts in April 2001. In April 2000, SBC

                                       120
   127

was granted authorization to provide long distance service in Texas, and in
January 2001, obtained authorization to provide long distance service in Kansas
and Oklahoma. In April 2001, SBC filed an application with the FCC for authority
to provide long distance telecommunications service in Missouri, and Verizon
filed an application seeking such authority in Connecticut. The FCC is due to
rule on those requests by July 3 and July 16, respectively.

     To the extent that RBOCs obtain in-region interLATA authority before the
Telecommunications Act's checklist of conditions have been fully or
satisfactorily implemented and adequate facilities-based local exchange
competition exists, there is a substantial risk that AT&T Consumer Services
Group and other interexchange service providers will be at a disadvantage to
RBOCs in providing both local service and combined service packages. Because it
is widely anticipated that substantial numbers of long distance customers will
seek to purchase local, interexchange and other services from a single carrier
as part of a combined or full service package, any competitive disadvantage,
inability to profitably provide local service at competitive rates or delays or
limitations in providing local service or combined service packages could
materially adversely affect AT&T Consumer Services Group's future revenue and
earnings. In any event, the simultaneous entrance of numerous new competitors
for interexchange and combined service packages is likely to materially
adversely affect AT&T Consumer Services Group's future long distance revenue and
could affect materially adversely future earnings.

     In addition to the matters referred to above, various other factors,
including technological hurdles, market acceptance, start-up and ongoing costs
associated with the provision of new services and local conditions and
obstacles, could materially adversely affect the timing and success of AT&T
Consumer Services Group's entrance into the local exchange services market and
AT&T Consumer Services Group's ability to offer combined service packages that
include local service.

EMPLOYEES

     At December 31, 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group employed approximately
17,400 individuals in its operations, virtually all of whom are located in the
United States. About 79% of the domestically located employees of AT&T Consumer
Services Group are represented by unions. Of those represented by unions, about
94% are represented by the Communications Workers of America and about 5% are
represented by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, or IBEW,
both of which are affiliated with the AFL-CIO. In addition, there is a very
small number of domestic employees represented by other unions. Labor agreements
with most of these unions extend through May 2002.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In the normal course of business, AT&T Consumer Services Group is subject
to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims, including proceedings under
government laws and regulations related to environmental and other matters. Such
matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with
assurance. Consequently, AT&T Consumer Services Group is unable to ascertain the
ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact with respect
to these matters at December 31, 2000. While these matters could affect
operating results of any one quarter when resolved in future periods, it is
management's opinion that after final disposition, any monetary liability or
financial impact to AT&T Consumer Services Group beyond that provided for at
year-end would not be material to AT&T Consumer Services Group's annual
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

LEGISLATIVE AND REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS

     TELECOMMUNICATIONS ACT OF 1996

     In February 1996, the Telecommunications Act became law. The
Telecommunications Act, among other things, was designed to foster local
exchange competition by establishing a regulatory framework to govern new
competitive entry in local and long distance telecommunications services. The
Telecommunications Act permits an RBOC to provide interexchange services
originating in any state in its region after it demonstrates to the FCC that
this provision is in the public interest and it satisfies the conditions for
developing local competition established by the Telecommunications Act.

     In August 1996, the FCC adopted rules and regulations, including pricing
rules, to implement the local competition provisions of the Telecommunications
Act, including with respect to the terms and conditions of interconnection with
LEC networks and the standards governing the purchase of unbundled network
elements and wholesale services from LECs. These rules and regulations rely on
PUCs, to develop the specific rates and procedures applicable to particular
states within the framework prescribed by the FCC.

     On July 18, 1997, the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a decision
holding that the FCC lacks authority to establish pricing rules to implement the
sections of the local competition provisions of the Telecommunications Act
applicable to interconnection with LEC networks and the purchase of unbundled
network elements and wholesale services from LECs. Accordingly, the Eighth
Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the rules that the FCC had adopted in August
1996, and that had been stayed by the Court since September 1996. On October 14,
1997, the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals vacated an FCC rule that prohibited
incumbent LECs from separating network elements that are combined in an
incumbent LEC's network, except at the request of the competitor purchasing the
elements. This decision increased the difficulty and cost of providing
competitive local service through the use of unbundled network elements
purchased from incumbent LECs.

     On January 25, 1999, the Supreme Court issued a decision reversing the
Eighth Circuit Court of Appeal's holding that the FCC lacks jurisdiction to
establish pricing rules applicable to interconnection and the purchase of
unbundled network elements, and the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeal's decision to
vacate the FCC's rule prohibiting incumbent LECs from separating network
elements that are combined in an incumbent LEC's network. The effect of the
Supreme Court's decision was to reinstate the FCC's rules governing pricing and
the separation of unbundled network elements. The pricing issues were then
remanded to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals to consider the incumbent LECs'
claims that, although the FCC has jurisdiction to adopt pricing rules, the rules
it adopted are not consistent with the applicable provisions of the
Telecommunications Act. The Supreme Court also vacated the FCC's rule
identifying and defining the unbundled network elements that incumbent LECs are
required to make available to new entrants, and directed the FCC to reexamine
this issue in light of the standards mandated by the Telecommunications Act.

     In response to the Supreme Court's decision, the FCC completed its
reexamination of, and released an order identifying and defining, the unbundled
network elements that incumbent LECs are required to make available to new
entrants. That order re-adopted the original list of elements, with certain
exceptions. An association of incumbent LECs has appealed the FCC's order to the
District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals, and has asked this Court to hear
the appeal on an expedited basis. A number of parties, including AT&T and other
incumbent LECs, have petitioned the FCC to reconsider and/or clarify its order.
The FCC has moved to hold the appeal in abeyance pending its disposition of the
reconsideration petitions.

     In July 2000, the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a decision
addressing the incumbent LECs' claims that the FCC's pricing rules are not
consistent with the applicable provisions of the Telecommunications Act. It
rejected the incumbent LECs' claims that the prices for network elements must be
based on their "historical costs" rather than, as the FCC had held, their
"forward-looking" costs. It also held, however, that the FCC rule providing that
forward-looking costs should

                                       122
   129

be calculated on the basis of the cost of the most efficient alternatives was
contrary to the Telecommunications Act. The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals then
stayed this ruling to enable the parties to seek review before the Supreme
Court, so the FCC's rules remain in effect until the Supreme Court decides the
case. The Supreme Court agreed to review the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals'
decision, and a decision by the Supreme Court is anticipated by the end of June
2002. The Supreme Court will be considering the claims of AT&T, the FCC and
others that the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals erred by invalidating the FCC
rule, and the claim by the incumbent LECs that the Eighth Circuit Court of
Appeals erred by not requiring prices based on their historical cost.

     The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals also invalidated the FCC's rules
setting the pricing methodology for resold local services. That aspect of its
decision was not stayed and will not be reviewed by the Supreme Court.

     In view of the proceedings pending before the Supreme Court, the District
of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals, the FCC and state PUCs, there can be no
assurance that the prices and other conditions established in each state will
provide for effective local service entry and competition or provide AT&T
Consumer Services Group with new market opportunities. The effect of the most
recent decision by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals is to increase the risks,
costs, difficulties, and uncertainty of entering local markets through using the
incumbent LECs' facilities and services.

     In December 1999, Bell Atlantic Corporation (now Verizon) obtained approval
to offer long distance telecommunications service in the State of New York,
which was the first time an RBOC had received this approval under the
Telecommunications Act. Bell Atlantic began offering combined local and long
distance service in January 2000. In July 2000, SBC became the second RBOC to
receive this approval, this time for the State of Texas, and began providing
combined local and long distance service in July 2000. In January 2001, the FCC
approved SBC's request for this authority for the States of Oklahoma and Kansas,
and, pursuant to the terms of that authority, SBC is free to begin providing
combined local and long distance services in those states in March 2001. Verizon
received the same authority in April 2001 for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
In April 2001, SBC filed an application with the FCC for authority to provide
long distance telecommunications service in Missouri, and Verizon filed an
application seeking such authority in Connecticut. The FCC is due to rule on
those requests by July 3 and July 16, respectively.

     REGULATION OF RATES

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is subject to the jurisdiction of the FCC with
respect to interstate and international rates, lines and services, and other
matters. From July 1989 to October 1995, the FCC regulated AT&T Consumer
Services Group under a system known as "price caps" whereby AT&T Consumer
Services Group's prices, rather than its earnings, were limited. On October 12,
1995, recognizing a decade of enormous change in the long distance market and
finding that AT&T lacked market power in the interstate long distance market,
the FCC reclassified AT&T as a "non-dominant" carrier for its domestic
interstate services. As a result, AT&T Consumer Services Group became subject to
the same regulations as its long distance competitors for these services. Thus,
AT&T Consumer Services Group was no longer subject to price cap regulation for
these services, was able to file tariffs that are presumed lawful on one day's
notice, and was free of other regulations and reporting requirements that apply
only to dominant carriers.

     On October 31, 1996, the FCC issued an order that would have prohibited
non-dominant carriers, including AT&T Consumer Services Group, from filing
tariffs for their domestic interstate services. Non-dominant carriers, including
AT&T Consumer Services Group, have begun implementation of mechanisms other than
tariffs to establish the terms and conditions that apply to domestic, interstate
telecommunications services, and, by August 1, 2001, will have to use these
mechanisms for virtually all domestic, interstate telecommunications services.
Further, on March 16, 2001, the FCC adopted an order applying detariffing
requirements to international services.

                                       123

     In May 1997, the FCC adopted orders relating to price caps, access reform
and universal service that substantially revised the level and structure of
access charges that AT&T Consumer Services Group, as a long distance carrier,
pays to incumbent LECs. Under the price cap order, LECs were required to reduce
their price cap indices by 6.5% annually, less an adjustment for inflation,
which has resulted in significant reductions in access charges that long
distance companies pay to LECs. The access reform order permitted increased
flat-rate assessments to multiline business customers and to residential
customers other than for the primary telephone line. AT&T Consumer Services
Group has agreed to pass through to consumers any savings to AT&T Consumer
Services Group as a result of these access charge reforms. Consequently, AT&T
Consumer Services Group's results after June 1997 reflect lower revenue per
minute of usage and lower access and other interconnection costs per minute of
usage.

     In May 2000, the FCC adopted the CALLS order for the price cap LECs, which
made additional significant access and price cap changes. The CALLS order
reduced by $3.2 billion during 2000 the interstate access charges that AT&T
Consumer Services Group and other long distance carriers paid to these LECs for
access to their networks, and established target access rates for the long
distance carriers companies, which, over the next two years, will result in
further reductions, albeit of a much smaller magnitude. Once the target rates
are reached, the annual price reductions required by the price cap order no
longer apply. In addition, the CALLS order removed implicit subsidies from
access charges and converted them into an explicit, portable subsidy
administered as part of the universal service program described below. Also,
under the CALLS order, the caps on certain line-based costs that do not vary
with usage have been increased so that these costs increasingly are recovered
from end user customers. These restructurings allowed the reduction in access
charges assessed on long distance carriers on a usage basis. As part of the
CALLS order, AT&T Consumer Services Group agreed to pass through to customers
access charge reductions over the five-year life of the CALLS order and made
certain other commitments regarding the rate structure of certain residential
long distance offerings.

     Under the August 1999 LEC pricing flexibility order, which was affirmed by
the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals in February 2001, the FCC
established certain triggers that enable the price cap LECs to obtain pricing
flexibility for their interstate access services, including Phase II relief that
permits them to remove these services from price cap regulation. Although these
triggers indicate a competitive presence sufficient to constrain monopoly
pricing by the LECs, purportedly, they may allow for premature deregulation that
could force access rates upwards.

     Finally, in the universal service order, the FCC adopted a new mechanism
for funding universal service, which includes programs that defray the costs of
telephone service in high-cost areas, for low-income consumers, and for schools,
libraries and rural health care providers. Specifically, the FCC expanded the
set of carriers that must contribute to support universal service from solely
long distance carriers to all carriers, including LECs, that provide interstate
telecommunications services. Similarly, the set of carriers eligible for the
universal service support has been expanded from only LECs to any eligible
carrier providing local service to a customer, including AT&T Consumer Services
Group as a new entrant in local markets. The universal service order also
adopted measures to provide discounts on telecommunications services, Internet
access and inside wiring for eligible schools and libraries and on
telecommunications services only for rural health care providers.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group remains subject to the statutory requirements
of Title II of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. AT&T Consumer
Services Group must offer service under rates, terms and conditions that are
just, reasonable and not unreasonably discriminatory. It also is subject to the
FCC's complaint process, and it must give notice to the FCC and affected
customers prior to discontinuance, reduction or impairment of service.
Commitments made by AT&T Consumer Services Group to address concerns that had
been raised about declaring AT&T Consumer Services Group to be non-dominant have
been satisfied or otherwise expired.

                                       124
   131

     In addition to the matters described above with respect to the
Telecommunications Act, state public service or utilities commissions or similar
authorities having regulatory power over intrastate rates, lines and services
and other matters regulate AT&T Consumer Services Group's local and intrastate
communications services. The system of regulation used in many states is
rate-of-return regulation. In recent years, many states have adopted different
systems of regulation, such as complete removal of rate-of-return regulation,
pricing flexibility rules, price caps and incentive regulation.

                          AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP
                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is an integrated business of AT&T and is not a
stand-alone entity. The combined financial statements included herein reflect
the results of the proposed AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.
Separate financial statements are not required to be filed for tracking stocks.
However, AT&T Consumer Services Group has provided the financial statements as
an exhibit to this document to provide additional disclosures to investors to
allow them to assess the financial performance of AT&T Consumer Services Group.
Since the tracking stocks are governed by a common board of directors, AT&T's
board of directors could make operational and financial decisions or implement
policies that affect disproportionately the businesses of any group. For
example, AT&T's board of directors may decide to transfer funds or to reallocate
assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows among groups, without the
consent of shareholders. All actions by the board of directors are subject to
the board members' fiduciary duties to all shareholders of AT&T as a group and
not just to holders of a particular class of tracking stock and to AT&T's
charter, policy statements, by-laws and inter-company agreements.

     AT&T's board of directors may change or supplement the policies set forth
in the tracking stock policy statements and AT&T's by-laws in the sole
discretion of AT&T's board of directors, subject to the provisions of any
inter-group agreement but without approval of AT&T's shareholders. In addition,
the fact that AT&T has separate classes of common stock could give rise to
occasions when the interests of the holders of the various classes of stock
diverge, conflict or appear to diverge or conflict. AT&T's board of directors
would make any change or addition to the policies set forth in the tracking
stock policy statements or AT&T's by-laws, and would respond to any actual or
apparent divergence of interest among AT&T's groups, in a manner consistent with
its fiduciary duties to AT&T and all of AT&T's shareholders after giving
consideration to the potentially divergent interests and all other relevant
interests of the holders of the separate classes of AT&T shares.

     You should consider that as a result of the flexibility provided to AT&T's
board of directors, it may be difficult for investors to assess the future
prospects of a tracking stock group based on that group's past performance.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is the leading provider of domestic and
international long distance service to residential consumers in the United
States with approximately 60 million customers. AT&T Consumer Services Group
provides interstate and intrastate long distance communications services
throughout the continental United States and provides, or joins in providing
with other carriers, communications services to and from Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands and international communications services to and
from virtually all nations and territories around the world.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group provides a broad range of communications
services to consumers individually and in combination with other services,
including: inbound and outbound domestic and international long distance through
the traditional "one plus" dialing of the desired call destination;
transaction-based long distance services such as calling cards and prepaid phone
cards; local and local toll calling through UNE-P resale service offers; and
dial-up Internet service and telephony over the Internet through AT&T WorldNet
Service.

     On October 25, 2000, AT&T announced a restructuring plan designed to fully
separate or issue separately tracked stocks intended to reflect the financial
performance and economic value of each of AT&T's four major operating units.
Under this plan AT&T will create a new class of stock intended

                                       126
   133

to track the financial performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services
Group. If the Consumer Services charter amendment proposal is approved, AT&T
expects to fully distribute the tracking stock to AT&T shareholders later this
year.

     Debt has been allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group based on our future
view of AT&T's debt position after taking into account the significant
deleveraging activities of AT&T. This allocation took into account the following
factors: prospective financing requirements, working capital and capital
expenditure requirements and comparable company profiles. Increases in
historical debt levels are based, in general, on historical cash flows generated
by AT&T Consumer Services Group in relation to total AT&T. Such cash outflows
include acquisitions, dividend payments and capital expenditures partially
offset by cash flow from operations. For purposes of this allocation, certain
"corporate" activities were deemed to be partially funded by this entity by
contributing proceeds to the parent for these activities. These activities
included the repurchase of common shares by AT&T and cash payments associated
with the TCI merger and the MediaOne acquisition. Since AT&T Consumer Services
Group will be a tracking stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. following
the spin-off, the intercompany debt allocated to them will be payable to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. The interest expense on the allocated debt was
calculated based on a rate intended to be equivalent to the rate AT&T Consumer
Services Group would have received if it were a stand-alone entity. Due to the
expected positive operating cash flow of AT&T Consumer Services Group, the level
of debt of AT&T Consumer Services Group in the future is expected to be
significantly lower than the level at December 31, 2000.

COMBINED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is an integrated business of AT&T and not a
stand-alone entity. The combined financial statements included herein reflect
the results of the proposed AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.
Separate financial statements are not required to be filed for tracking stocks.
However, AT&T Consumer Services Group has provided the financial statements as
an exhibit to this document to provide additional disclosures to investors to
allow them to assess the financial performance of AT&T Consumer Services Group.
Presenting separate financial statements for AT&T Consumer Services Group does
not indicate that AT&T has changed title to any assets or responsibility for any
liabilities, and does not purport to affect the rights of any of AT&T's
creditors. Holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock do not have
claims against the assets of AT&T Consumer Services Group. Instead, AT&T
Consumer Services Group shareholders own a separate class of AT&T common stock
that is intended to reflect the financial performance and economic value of
AT&T's consumer services businesses.

     The comparison of 2000 results with 1999 was impacted by events that
occurred during these two years. For example, on January 5, 2000, AT&T launched
Concert, its global joint venture with BT. AT&T contributed all of its
international gateway-to-gateway assets and the economic value of approximately
270 AT&T Business Services Group multinational customers specifically targeted
for direct sales by Concert and substantially all international traffic of AT&T
Consumer Services Group. As a result, AT&T Consumer Services Group's 2000
results do not include the revenue and expenses associated with international
traffic contributed to Concert.

     In addition, effective July 1, 2000, the FCC eliminated Primary
Interexchange Carrier Charges, or PICC, or per-line charges, that AT&T Consumer
Services Group pays for residential customers. The elimination of these per-line
charges resulted in lower access expense as well as lower revenue, since AT&T
Consumer Services Group has historically billed its customers for these charges.

     In 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group's revenue decreased $2,859 million or
13.1%, on a mid-single-digit decline in volumes. Revenue in 1999 fell $1,010
million, or 4.4%, on a mid-single-digit decline in volumes. In 2000,
approximately $884 million of this decline was due to the elimination of
per-line charges and the impact of Concert. The remaining decline in both years
reflects the ongoing competitive nature of the consumer long distance industry,
which has resulted in pricing pressures and a loss of customers. Also negatively
impacting revenue growth was product substitution and market migration away from
direct dial wireline and higher-priced calling card services to rapidly growing
wireless services and lower-priced prepaid card services. During 2000, the New
York and Texas long distance markets were opened up to competition by the RBOCs.
The continued entry of the RBOCs into the long distance market is expected to
increase competitive pressures in 2001.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group has continued to demonstrate its commitment to
providing customers with choice, simplicity and competitive rates. AT&T Consumer
Services Group's One Rate plans, which allow customers to make long distance
calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week for the same rate, have continued to be
well received. As of December 31, 2000, over 12 million customers were enrolled
in these plans, with more than 60% of those customers electing to bundle their
long distance with local toll (intraLATA) service. Over one-half of the
customers enrolled in the One Rate plans were new long distance customers.

     AT&T WorldNet Service revenue increased 5.9% to $319 million in 2000, and
41.2% to $301 million in 1999. The increase in 2000 is due to stronger
subscription revenue in the first half of 2000 as well as increased advertising
revenue. Growth in 1999 was higher primarily due to increased marketing efforts
and the introduction of the premium $21.95 unlimited access price plan.
Competition within the ISP industry has recently increased. AT&T WorldNet
Service has remained competitive with the industry, and launched their i495 plan
in July 2000, which provides up to 150 hours of Internet service for $4.95 per
month.

     AT&T WorldNet Service served 1.42 million residential customers as of
December 31, 2000, a decrease of 3.8% over 1999, due to the competitive nature
of the industry. At December 31, 1999, AT&T WorldNet Service served 1.48 million
residential customers, an increase of 29.5% over 1998.

Access and other connection........................  $5,204     $6,223     $7,453


     Access and other connection expenses declined $1,019 million, or 16.4%, in
2000 compared with 1999. Included within access and other connection expenses
are costs paid to connect domestic calls on the facilities of other service
providers. Approximately $932 million of this decline was driven by mandated
reductions in per-minute access rates in 2000 and decreased per-line charges.
Approximately $295 million of this decline was driven by volume declines in
2000. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in Universal Service
Fund contributions of $224 million. Since most of these charges are passed
through to the customer, the per-minute access-rate, the per-line charge
reductions and the increased Universal Service Fund contributions have generally
resulted in a corresponding impact on revenue. In addition, local connectivity
charges increased $173 million, reflecting growth in the local business.

     Costs paid to telephone companies outside of the United States to connect
calls made to countries outside of the United States (international settlements)
are also included within access and other connection expenses. These costs
decreased $193 million in 2000, as a result of the commencement of operations of
Concert. Concert now incurs most of AT&T's international settlements as well as
earns most of AT&T's foreign-billed revenue, previously incurred and earned

                                       128
   135

directly by AT&T Consumer Services Group. In 2000, Concert billed AT&T Consumer
Services Group a net expense composed of international settlement
(interconnection) expense, administrative fees, and foreign-billed revenue. The
amount charged by Concert in 2000 was lower than interconnection expense
incurred in 1999, since AT&T Consumer Services Group recorded these transactions
as revenue and expense, as applicable.

     Access and other connection expenses declined $1,230 million, or 16.5%, in
1999 compared with the prior year. Approximately $960 million of this decline
resulted from mandated reductions in per-minute access rates and lower
international settlement rates resulting from AT&T's negotiations with
international carriers. Approximately $236 million of this decline was driven by
volume declines in 1999. These reductions were partially offset by increased
per-line charges and Universal Service Fund contributions in the amount of $172
million.

Selling, general and administrative..................  $4,128    $4,688    $5,453


     Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses decreased $560
million, or 11.9%, in 2000 compared with 1999. These reductions were primarily
attributed to cost control efforts such as targeted marketing, consolidation of
functions and reduction of support and corporate staff headcounts.

     In 1999, SG&A expenses decreased $765 million, or 14.0% compared with the
prior year. This decrease was primarily due to AT&T Consumer Services Group's
focus on high-value customers, which led to lower spending on
customer-acquisition and retention programs.

Costs of services and products.......................  $2,557    $3,316    $3,656


     Costs of services and products expenses include such costs as the transport
costs for utilizing AT&T's network, operator service costs, and the provision
for uncollectible receivables. These costs decreased $759 million, or 22.9%, in
2000 and $340 million, or 9.3%, in 1999 compared with the prior year. These
declines are largely due to volume declines and network cost-control
initiatives, and the lower provision for uncollectible receivables.

$148 million, $300 million and $98 million, respectively.

     During 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group recorded $97 million of net
restructuring and other charges. The charge for restructuring and exit plans was
primarily due to headcount reductions, including the consolidation of customer
care and call centers. Included in exit costs was $79 million of cash
termination benefits associated with the involuntary separation of about 1,300
employees. Approximately 65% of the individuals were management employees and
35% were non-management employees.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group also recorded an asset impairment charge of
$18 million related to the write-down of unrecoverable assets in certain
businesses where the carrying value was no longer supported by estimated future
cash flows.

     During 1999, AT&T Consumer Services Group recorded $7 million of net
restructuring and other charges. This $7 million charge for restructuring and
exit costs was recorded in conjunction with AT&T's initiative to reduce costs.
The restructuring and exit plans primarily focused on the maximization of
synergies through headcount reductions, including the consolidation of
customer-care and call centers.

     The exit costs represent cash termination benefits associated with the
separation of approximately 164 employees as part of voluntary termination
plans. All of the terminations were nonmanagement employees.

     During 1998, AT&T Consumer Services Group recorded a $19 million benefit to
net restructuring and other charges. This benefit represents the reversal of
1995 business restructuring reserves primarily resulting from the overlap of
AT&T's 1998 voluntary retirement incentive program, or VRIP, on certain 1995
projects.

Operating income.....................................  $6,741    $7,335    $6,104


     Operating income decreased 8.1% in 2000 compared with 1999. These results
primarily reflect a decline in revenues, partially offset by cost reductions,
primarily in SG&A, and costs of services and products. The decrease was also
attributed to higher net restructuring and other charges in 2000 of $90 million.
Operating income margin (operating income as a percent of revenue) was 35.7% in
2000 compared with 33.7% in 1999.

     In 1999, operating income increased 20.2% compared to the prior year. This
increase was primarily driven by reduced SG&A expenses, largely due to AT&T
Consumer Services Group's focus on high-value customers, which led to lower
spending on customer-acquisition and retention programs.



                                                               FOR THE YEARS ENDED

     Other income decreased $127 million or 61.1% in 2000 compared with 1999.
Other income increased $122 million or 141.9% in 1999 compared with the prior
year. These results are primarily due to the 1999 sale of AT&T Consumer Services
Group's Language Line Services business, which resulted in a gain of $153
million.

Interest expense...........................................  $164      $41      $27


     In 2000, interest expense was $164 million compared to interest expense of
$41 million in 1999. This interest expense is primarily due to an increase in
long-term debt from AT&T.

     In 1999, interest expense increased $14 million versus the prior year. This
is primarily due to the increase in long-term debt in 1999.

Provision for income taxes...........................  $2,546    $2,869    $2,356


     The effective income tax rate is the provision for income taxes as a
percent of income from continuing operations before income taxes. The effective
income tax rate for AT&T Consumer Services Group was 38.24%, 38.24%, and 38.22%,
in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

  Used in financing activities....................   (4,661)    (5,742)    (2,500)


     In 2000, net cash provided by operating activities increased $437 million.
This increase is primarily due to changes in accounts receivable and accounts
payable. These increases in net cash were partially offset by a decrease in net
income, excluding the noncash impacts of depreciation and amortization, net
restructuring and other charges and provision for uncollectibles. The increase
in net cash provided by operating activities in 1999 compared with 1998 was
primarily due to an increase in net income.

     Investing activities resulted in a net use of cash of $132 million for
2000. The primary use of cash in 2000 was for capital expenditures.

     Net cash provided by investing activities in 1999 was $1,398 million,
compared with a net use of cash in 1998 of $1,641 million. In 1998, AT&T
Consumer Services Group made a short term loan to AT&T; this receivable was
collected in 1999.

     In 2000, net cash used in financing activities decreased by $1,081 million.
This decrease is primarily due to an increase in long term debt due to AT&T,
partially offset by a higher transfer to AT&T and dividend payment in 2000.

                                       131
   138

     In 1999, net cash used in financing activities increased $3,242 million.
This increase is primarily due to an increase in transfers to AT&T.

     AT&T's board of directors has the power to make determinations that may
impact the financial and liquidity position of each of its tracking stock
groups. This power includes the ability to set priorities for use of capital and
debt capacity, to determine cash management policies and to make decisions
regarding whether to make capital expenditures and as to the timing and amount
of any capital expenditures. All actions by the board of directors are subject
to the board members fiduciary duties to all shareholders of AT&T as a group and
not just to holders of a particular class of tracking stock and to AT&T's policy
statements, by-laws and inter-company agreements. As a result of this discretion
of AT&T's board of directors, it may be difficult for investors to assess each
group's liquidity and capital resource needs and in turn the future prospects of
each group based on past performance.

Total liabilities..........................................    6,084        3,002
Combined attributed net (liabilities) assets...............   (2,541)       1,070


     Total assets decreased $529 million, or 13.0%, during 2000. The decrease in
total assets was primarily associated with a decrease in accounts receivable,
reflecting lower revenue.

     Total liabilities at December 31, 2000 increased $3,082 million or 102.7%
during 2000. This increase is primarily due to an increase in long-term debt due
to AT&T.

     Total combined attributed net (liabilities) assets at December 31, 2000,
decreased $3,611 million from the previous year, reflecting dividends and
transfers to AT&T of $7.7 billion, partially offset by net income of $4.1
billion.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." Among other provisions, it requires that
entities recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value.
Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivatives
would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. The effective date of this standard was delayed
via the issuance of SFAS No. 137. The effective date for SFAS No. 133 is now for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, though earlier adoption is
encouraged and retroactive application is prohibited. For AT&T Consumer Services
Group this means that the standard must be adopted no later than January 1,
2001.

     In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" as an amendment to SFAS
No. 133. This statement provides clarification with regard to certain
implementation issues under SFAS No. 133 on specific types of hedges.

     On January 1, 2001, AT&T Consumer Services Group adopted SFAS No. 133. This
adoption did not have a material impact on AT&T Consumer Services Group's
financial statements.

     The impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, on
AT&T Consumer Services Group's future results of operations is dependent upon
the fair values of AT&T's

                                       132
   139

derivatives and related financial instruments and could result in pronounced
quarterly fluctuations in other income in future periods.

     In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities -- A
Replacement of FASB No. 125." This statement provides accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. Under these standards, after a transfer of financial assets, an
entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the
liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been
surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This statement
provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. This statement is
effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. AT&T Consumer Services Group does
not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 140 will have a material impact on AT&T
Consumer Services Group's results of operations, financial position or cash
flows.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On April 26, 2001, AT&T initiated a 364-day accounts receivable
securitization program providing for up to $500 million of funding. Under the
program, a small percentage of accounts receivable related to AT&T Consumer
Services Group will be sold on a discounted, revolving basis, to a special
purpose, wholly owned subsidiary, which assigns interests in such receivables to
unrelated third-party financing entities.

     On March 23, 2001, AT&T signed an agreement to acquire substantially all of
the assets of NorthPoint Communications Group, Inc., valued at approximately
$135 million. The acquisition includes all of NorthPoint's co-locations
nationwide, certain network equipment, systems and support software and related
assets, including two leased buildings. The purchase of NorthPoint
Communications Group, Inc. is expected to be attributed to AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.

                         RELATIONSHIP AMONG AT&T GROUPS

     The description of the AT&T Groups capital stock committee and the AT&T
Groups policy statement below is not complete and is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the by-law amendment relating to the AT&T Groups capital stock
committee and the AT&T Groups policy statement, a copy of which we have attached
as Appendix C to this proxy statement and which we incorporate by reference. All
shareholders are urged to read it in its entirety.

THE AT&T GROUPS CAPITAL STOCK COMMITTEE

     Upon creation and issuance of either AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, we will amend our by-laws to
establish an AT&T Groups capital stock committee of our board of directors to
oversee the interaction among the businesses of different AT&T groups. The
members of the AT&T Groups capital stock committee will be selected by our board
of directors. The by-law amendment provides that our board of directors will
delegate to the AT&T Groups capital stock committee authority to:

     - interpret, make determinations under and oversee the implementation of
       the policies described in the Policy Statement Regarding AT&T Groups
       Tracking Stock Matters described under "-- The AT&T Groups Policy
       Statement;"

     - review the policies, programs and practices of AT&T relating to:

        -- the business and financial relationships of AT&T's groups; and

        -- any matters arising in connection with any of the foregoing, all to
           the extent the AT&T Groups capital stock committee may deem
           appropriate; and

     - recommend changes in the policies, programs and practices that the AT&T
       Groups capital stock committee may deem appropriate.

     The AT&T Groups capital stock committee will have and may exercise other
powers, authority and responsibilities as our board of directors may determine
from time to time.

     However, as with all of our groups, there will not be a separate board of
directors for AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group, and the AT&T
Groups capital stock committee will not function as a board of directors for
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock. Under existing law, neither our board of directors nor the AT&T Groups
capital stock committee owes a separate fiduciary duty to the holders of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock
apart from the general duty that is owed to all AT&T shareholders.

     Although our board of directors has no present intention to do so, it may
modify, suspend or rescind the by-law amendment or adopt additional by-laws, at
any time, without the approval of our shareholders, subject to our board of
directors' fiduciary duties.

THE AT&T GROUPS POLICY STATEMENT

     In connection with the creation and issuance of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, AT&T will,
effective upon issuance of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock, adopt the AT&T Groups policy statement,
which AT&T intends to follow.

     GENERAL POLICY

     Our board of directors has determined that all material matters in which
holders of AT&T common stock, AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and/or AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock may have divergent interests generally
will be resolved in a manner that is in the best interests of AT&T and all of
its common shareholders as a whole after giving fair consideration to the
potentially divergent interests and all other relevant interests of the holders
of the separate classes of AT&T common shares. Under the AT&T Groups policy
statement, the relationships among AT&T

                                       134
   141

groups and the means by which the terms of any material transactions among them
will be determined will be governed by a process of fair dealing.

     RELATIONSHIP AMONG AT&T GROUPS

     The AT&T Groups policy statement provides that AT&T will seek to manage
AT&T groups in a manner designed to maximize the operations, unique assets and
value of all of the AT&T groups, and with complementary deployment of capital
and facilities.

     General.  Subject to special arrangements or existing commercial
arrangements in effect at the time this policy statement is adopted, the AT&T
Groups policy statement provides that, except as otherwise provided in the AT&T
Groups policy statement, all material commercial transactions among the AT&T
groups will be on commercially reasonable terms taken as a whole, and will be
subject to the review and approval of the AT&T Groups capital stock committee.

     The AT&T groups may make loans to each other on terms and conditions
substantially equivalent to the interest rates and terms and conditions that the
groups would be able to obtain from third parties without the benefit of support
or guarantee by AT&T.

     For shared corporate services that arise as a result of being part of a
combined entity, including securities filing and financial reporting services,
costs relating to these services will be:

     - allocated directly to the group utilizing those services, and

     - if not directly allocable to a group, allocated between the groups on a
       fair and reasonable basis as our board of directors determines.

     For other support services, for example, billing and purchasing services,
the AT&T Groups policy statement provides that the AT&T groups will seek to
achieve enterprise efficiencies to minimize the aggregate costs incurred by the
AT&T groups on a combined basis, although each group also will be entitled to
negotiate and procure support services on its own either from the other groups
or from third parties.

     In addition, the AT&T Groups policy statement provides that the groups will
work collaboratively with each other to understand and take into account one
another's expansion, acquisition, deployment, marketing and sales plans, with
the goal of minimizing overlaps and conflicts between the groups.

     CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

     The AT&T Groups policy statement provides that our board of directors will
allocate any business opportunities and operations, any acquired assets and
businesses and any assumed liabilities among the groups, in whole or in part, as
it considers to be in the best interests of AT&T and its shareholders as a whole
and as contemplated by the other provisions of the AT&T Groups policy statement.
If a business opportunity or operation, an acquired asset or business, or an
assumed liability would be suitable to be undertaken by or allocated to more
than one group, our board of directors will allocate it using its business
judgment or in accordance with procedures that our board of directors adopts
from time to time to ensure that decisions will be made in the best interests of
AT&T and its shareholders as a whole. Any allocation of this type may involve
the consideration of a number of factors that our board of directors determines
to be relevant, including, without limitation, whether the business opportunity
or operation, the acquired asset or business, or the assumed liability is
principally within the existing scope of a group's business and whether a group
is comparatively better positioned to undertake or have allocated to it the
business opportunity or operation, acquired asset or business or assumed
liability.

     Except under the AT&T Groups policy statement and any other policies
adopted by our board of directors, which policies will be designed to minimize
conflicts between the groups, harmonize capital

                                       135
   142

spending and promote the use by each group of services of the other groups, no
group will have any duty, responsibility or obligation to refrain from:

     - engaging in the same or similar activities or lines of business as any
       member of the other groups;

     - doing business with any potential or actual supplier, competitor or
       customer of any member of any other group; or

     - engaging in, or refraining from, any other activities whatsoever relating
       to any of the potential or actual suppliers or customers of any member of
       the other groups.

     In addition, except under the AT&T Groups policy statement and any other
policies adopted by our board of directors, no group will have any duty,
responsibility or obligation:

     - to communicate or offer any business or other corporate opportunity to
       any other person, including any business or other corporate opportunity
       that may arise that more than one group may be financially able to
       undertake, and that is, from its nature, in the line of more than one
       group's business and is of practical advantage to more than one group;

     - to provide financial support to another group, or any member of that
       group, except as described under "-- Relationships with AT&T -- Financing
       Arrangements;" or

     - otherwise to assist any other group.

     Under no circumstances will any members of any AT&T group be prevented from
entering into written agreements with another group to define or restrict any
aspect of the relationship between the groups.

     DIVIDEND POLICY

     The AT&T Groups policy statement provides that, subject to the limitations
on dividends set forth in our charter, including any preferential rights of any
series of AT&T preferred stock, and to the limitations of applicable law,
holders of shares of any class of AT&T common stock will be entitled to receive
dividends on that stock when, as and if our board of directors authorizes and
declares dividends on that stock. The payment of dividends on any class of AT&T
common stock will be a business decision that our board of directors makes from
time to time based on the results of operations, financial condition, cash
requirements and future prospects of AT&T and other factors that our board of
directors considers relevant. Payment of dividends on any class of AT&T common
stock also may be restricted by loan agreements, indentures and other
transactions that AT&T enters into from time to time.

     AT&T does not expect to pay any dividends on shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock. If and when our board of directors determines to pay any
dividends on shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, the AT&T Groups
policy statement provides that this determination also will be subject to
factors similar to those that we describe above with respect to the payment of
dividends on each class of AT&T common stock.

     Following any issuance of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, it
is currently expected that one-third of the current dividend payable on AT&T
common stock will be allocated to AT&T common stock and that two-thirds of that
dividend will be allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock in a
manner to be determined by our board of directors. The declaration of dividends
by AT&T and the amount thereof will, however, be in the discretion of our board
of directors and will depend upon each of our group's financial performance, the
dividend policies and capital structures of comparable companies and each
group's ongoing capital needs. If and when our board of directors determines to
pay any dividends on shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, the
AT&T Groups policy statement provides that this determination also will be
subject to factors similar to those that we describe above with respect to the
payment of dividends on each class of AT&T common stock.

     AT&T GROUPS CAPITAL STOCK COMMITTEE

     Our by-laws will provide for the AT&T Groups capital stock committee of our
board of directors. In making determinations in connection with the policies set
forth in the AT&T Groups policy statement, the members of our board of directors
and the AT&T Groups capital stock committee will act in a fiduciary capacity and
in accordance with legal guidance concerning their respective obligations under
applicable law. The delegation of responsibilities to the AT&T Groups capital
stock committee will be subject to changes our board of directors may determine.

     AMENDMENT AND MODIFICATION TO THE AT&T GROUPS POLICY STATEMENT

     Our board of directors may modify, suspend or rescind the policies set
forth in the AT&T Groups policy statement, including any resolution implementing
the provisions of the AT&T Groups policy statement. Our board of directors also
may adopt additional or other policies or make exceptions with respect to the
application of the policies described in the AT&T Groups policy statement in
connection with particular facts and circumstances, all as our board of
directors may determine, consistent with its fiduciary duties to AT&T and our
shareholders as a whole.

RELATIONSHIPS WITH AT&T

     BRANDING

     Each of AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group will obtain
the right, on a royalty-free basis, to continue to use certain of the AT&T
brands, including the AT&T globe design and the AT&T trade dress, which we
collectively refer to as the "AT&T Broadband Brands" and "AT&T Consumer Services
Brands," respectively, in accordance with a brand license agreement. Under the
brand license agreements, AT&T Broadband Group will be entitled to use the AT&T
Broadband Brands for the provision over a cable system of its multi-channel
video services and interactive television services, and for the provision over a
cable system to residential subscribers of local telephony services (including
any distance telephony service associated with local service) and high-speed
cable Internet services and AT&T Consumer Services Group will be entitled to use
AT&T Consumer Services Brands for the provision of stand-alone residential long
distance services, prepaid consumer calling card services, consumer calling card
services, operator-assisted international telephone services for consumer
travelers, certain DSL-based communications services, residential UNE-P
services, consumer dial-up narrow-band Internet access services, high-speed
Internet access services, and certain portals, content, equipment and software
and for bundles of the foregoing offered by AT&T Consumer Services Group. In
addition, under its brand license agreement AT&T Broadband Group will have the
right to use the AT&T Broadband Brands in connection with certain satellite
transmission services, digital processing services and production studio
services, each in relation to audio/video content. The rights to be granted to
AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group under their respective
brand license agreements will be for a period of five years following its
effective date. After the initial five-year period, AT&T Broadband Group and
AT&T Consumer Services Group would be entitled, if they choose, to continue to
use the AT&T Broadband Brands and AT&T Consumer Services Brands, respectively,
on these services for an additional five-year period. During this second
five-year period, AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group may
terminate their respective brand license agreements by providing 12 months'
prior notice.

     Under its respective brand license agreement, AT&T Broadband Group's rights
to use the AT&T Broadband Brands in connection with cable-based multichannel
video services and interactive television services will be exclusive. AT&T
Broadband Group will also have certain nonexclusive rights. Under its respective
brand license agreement, AT&T Consumer Services Group's rights to use the AT&T
Consumer Services Brands in connection with stand-alone residential long
distance services, prepaid consumer calling card services, consumer calling card
service, operator-assisted international telephone services for consumer
travelers and consumer dial-up narrow-band Internet

                                       137
   144

access services will be exclusive. AT&T Consumer Services Group will also have
certain nonexclusive rights.

     The territory of each brand license agreement generally will be worldwide
with exceptions where AT&T already has granted brand license agreements or where
another AT&T unit or group has exclusive brand rights for competing services.
Subject to certain conditions set forth in its brand license agreement, AT&T
Consumer Services Group also may extend certain rights to use the AT&T Consumer
Services Brands to authorized dealers of AT&T Consumer Services Group's
services. Each brand license agreement will provide that AT&T Broadband Group or
AT&T Consumer Services Group, as applicable, must comply with specified quality,
customer care, graphics and marketing standards and guidelines to avoid
confusion in connection with the use of the AT&T Broadband Brands or AT&T
Consumer Services Brands, as applicable. It also will provide that, for so long
as AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group, as applicable, uses the
AT&T Broadband Brands or AT&T Consumer Services Brands, as applicable, it shall
pay AT&T a brand maintenance fee for the administration, protection and
promotion of the AT&T Broadband Brands or AT&T Consumer Services Brands, as
applicable. AT&T may terminate each brand license agreement in the event of a
significant breach (as defined in the respective brand license agreements),
including a change of control of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services
Group, as applicable, or a failure by AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer
Services Group, as applicable, to use the AT&T Broadband Brands or AT&T Consumer
Services Brands, as applicable, on a specified portion of its products and
services.

     INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

     Intellectual property will continue to be managed by the AT&T group that
has managed it historically. Each group will have the right to use the
intellectual property existing as of December 31, 2000 and managed by the other
groups, or with respect to which any group has the power to grant these rights,
in accordance with an intellectual property agreement. Rights under future
intellectual property would be governed by sponsored development agreements that
may, or may not, be entered into among the groups. Pursuant to any such
sponsored development agreement, the group contracted and paid to perform the
work would own the newly developed intellectual property and the other group
would be granted perpetual, paid-up rights necessary to use the development on a
worldwide basis.

     The intellectual property agreement to be entered into by each of AT&T
Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group will specify the ownership and
license rights in specified patents, software, copyrights and trade secrets.
Each AT&T group will grant to the other groups under its specified patents, if
any, a nonexclusive, fully paid-up, worldwide, perpetual license to make, use
and sell all products and services in the conduct of its present and future
business. The groups will also grant special rights under certain of each
other's patents, if any, for defensive protection, special affiliate licensing
and supplier licensing. Each group will own all of the software, trade secrets
and copyrights that it created prior to the applicable intellectual property
agreement's effective date. Each group will further grant to the other groups a
nonexclusive, fully paid-up, worldwide, perpetual license to use the group's
software, trade secrets and copyrights that they possess as of the applicable
intellectual property agreement's effective date for use in its present and
future business. Proprietary information related to a group's customers will
receive special protection under the respective intellectual property
agreements.

     COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN GROUPS

     We intend that, except as otherwise provided in the AT&T Groups policy
statement, all commercial transactions among the groups will be on commercially
reasonable terms taken as a whole. We expect the groups will negotiate and
develop their arrangements over time, and that these arrangements will be
subject to the review and approval of the AT&T Groups capital stock committee.

                                       138
   145

     We may reallocate assets among the groups in exchange for an increase or
decrease in the retained portion of value held by AT&T Business Services Group.
Any reallocations of assets between the groups that do not result in this
adjustment, other than reallocations made under a contract for the provision of
goods or services between the groups, will be accompanied by:

     - the reallocation by the transferee group to the transferor group of other
       assets or consideration,

     - the creation of inter-group debt owed by the transferee group to the
       transferor group, or

     - the reduction of inter-group debt owed by the transferor group to the
       transferee group,

in each case, in an amount having a fair market value, in the judgment of our
board of directors, equivalent to the fair market value of the assets
reallocated by the transferor group.

     AT&T's groups will enter into various network agreements with AT&T Business
Services Group. For example, AT&T Wireless Group will enter into a Master
Carrier Agreement with AT&T Business Services Group that will establish the
rates, terms and conditions upon which AT&T Business Services Group will provide
a variety of voice and data services to AT&T Wireless Group, including both
wholesale services (to be used as a component in services sold by AT&T Wireless
Group to others) and administrative services (e.g., internal corporate use). The
term is five years for wholesale voice service and all international services,
and generally three years for other services. Pricing will be market based, and
for domestic wholesale voice services will be benchmarked against both AT&T
Business Services Group and other carrier pricing to similarly situated
customers. AT&T Wireless Group's purchase commitments vary by service and over
the term of the agreement. For wholesale domestic voice service, which is the
largest volume service under the contract, AT&T Wireless Group commits to
purchase all of its needs from AT&T Business Services Group for 2001 (subject to
any existing commitments with other carriers), and to maintain this base
commitment level throughout the term, subject to AT&T Business Services Group
remaining price competitive. Should AT&T Wireless Group's needs for wholesale
domestic voice transport grow, as is anticipated, AT&T Business Services Group
will have a right to obtain the incremental growth business as well through
2003, provided that it matches the competitive offers received by AT&T Wireless
Group from others, and provided that AT&T Wireless Group will have the right in
any event to award 20% of its wholesale domestic voice needs above the
commitment level to another supplier. After 2003, AT&T Wireless Group may obtain
its wholesale domestic voice needs above the commitment level from any supplier.
AT&T Wireless Group will obtain all of its international requirements from AT&T
Business Services Group to the same extent and on the same terms that AT&T
Business Services Group must obtain its requirements from Concert, the joint
venture between AT&T and BT.

     There are several other network agreements between AT&T Business Services
Group and AT&T Wireless Group. There will be an agreement providing AT&T
Business Services Group with use of half of the spectrum under the licenses
covering the 37-40 gigahertz band of frequencies owned by AT&T Wireless Group
for a ten year period at a fixed price per year. In addition, the agreement
provides additional rights to each party to use (for a price) such spectrum not
utilized by the other, and gives AT&T Business Services Group a right of first
refusal to purchase AT&T Wireless Group's interest in these licenses in certain
circumstances should AT&T Wireless Group no longer want to retain the licenses.
Under another agreement, AT&T Business Services Group will obtain SS7 signaling
services from AT&T Wireless Group on a transitional basis to support AT&T
Business Services Group's local service offerings. Under yet another agreement,
AT&T Wireless Group agrees that it will neither advocate for, nor charge, AT&T
Business Services Group for access with respect to mobile wireless services,
unless the current industry practice (e.g., that wireless carriers do not
collect access charges from landline carriers for the origination or termination
of calls) changes, the law changes or AT&T Business Services Group is ordered to
pay or begins paying another carrier these charges. The agreement also will
provide that AT&T Wireless Group will not assess these charges in any event
during 2001, and that AT&T Wireless Group will not bill access charges from AT&T
Business Services Group until each of the other major wireless carriers has
begun billing these

                                       139
   146

charges, and its rates at that time will be no higher than the lowest rates
charged by any of the major wireless carriers.

     AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Wireless Group will also enter into
an Agency and Referral Agreement, which will provide that AT&T Business Services
Group, for compensation, will act as an agent in selling AT&T Wireless Group
services to large and small business customers.

     AT&T Broadband Group will enter into four principle network agreements with
AT&T Business Services Group:

     - Master Carrier Agreement.  This will reflect the rates, terms and
       conditions on which AT&T Business Services Group will provide voice and
       data services to AT&T Broadband Group, including both wholesale services
       (to be used as a component in AT&T Broadband Group's services to its
       customers), and "administrative" services (e.g., internal AT&T Broadband
       Group usage). Pricing is market based, with provisions defining an
       ongoing process to ensure the prices remain competitive. AT&T Broadband
       Group's purchase commitments vary by service and over the 5-year term of
       the agreement. In the first year, AT&T Broadband Group will purchase all
       its requirements from AT&T Business Services Group, subject to
       pre-existing contractual commitments and the right to acquire data
       services (including voice over IP) from Excite@Home. In years 2 and 3,
       AT&T Broadband Group may put up to 20% of its domestic needs up for bid,
       subject to AT&T Business Services Group's right to retain the business if
       it provides or matches the best offer. In years 4 and 5, AT&T Broadband
       Group may select the vendor of its choice for the 20%. AT&T Broadband
       Group will obtain all of its international requirements from AT&T
       Business Services Group to the same extent and on the same terms that
       AT&T Business Services Group must obtain its requirements from Concert.

     - Local Network Connectivity Services Agreement (incorporated within the
       Master Carrier Agreement).  This agreement will reflect the rates, terms
       and conditions on which AT&T Business Services Group will provide certain
       local network connectivity services to AT&T Broadband Group for use in
       providing local telephony services to AT&T Broadband Group's subscribers.
       The agreement consists of two parts:

        -- a capital lease from AT&T Business Services Group to AT&T Broadband
           Group of certain network switching and transport assets to be used
           exclusively by AT&T Broadband Group for a term of up to 12 years; and

        -- an operating agreement for the provision of local network
           connectivity, management and operational services in support of AT&T
           Broadband Group's local cable telephony services, with a minimum term
           of five years.

      AT&T Broadband Group will be required to purchase 100% of its requirements
      for circuit-switched telephony services from AT&T Business Services Group
      over the initial 5-year term of the agreement, and also will be required
      to pay for a minimum of 85% of the volumes initially forecasted by AT&T
      Broadband Group throughout the initial 5-year term of the agreement. The
      initial prices under the agreement will be based on AT&T Business Services
      Group's cost plus cost of capital, subject to provisions assuring that
      AT&T Broadband Group will receive prices as favorable as those provided by
      AT&T Business Services Group to similarly situated wholesale customers of
      AT&T Business Services Group.

     - Fiber Facilities Agreement.  In 1998, Teleport Communications Group Inc.,
       or TCG, and TCI (the predecessors of AT&T Local Network Services -- part
       of AT&T Business Services Group -- and AT&T Broadband Group,
       respectively) entered into a facilities lease agreement whereby AT&T
       Broadband Group, under certain circumstances, would construct for, and
       lease to TCG, fiber facilities in the areas served by AT&T Broadband
       Group's cable systems for use in providing telecommunications services.
       That agreement will be modified to allow, among other things, that the
       areas served by the systems formerly operated by MediaOne will be
       included in the Agreement. In addition, charges for the facilities
       constructed and provided to

                                       140
   147

AT&T Business Services Group will be based on AT&T Broadband Group's costs. The
term of the build out period will be unchanged from the original 1998 contract,
and as before, any leases entered into during the term will be perpetual, at the
      option of AT&T Business Services Group.

     - Interconnection and Intercarrier Compensation Agreement.  This agreement
       will specify the terms of interconnection of the parties' networks, and
       compensation for:

        -- the origination or termination of interexchange traffic for the other
           party; and

        -- the exchange of local traffic between the parties' local customers.

      The term will be five years. During 2001, the existing internal
      arrangements with respect to access charges for interexchange traffic will
      be largely retained. Beginning in 2002, each party may charge the other
      prevailing rates (based on the rates charged by incumbent LECs). Local
      traffic will be exchanged at standard rates in effect between AT&T
      Business Services Group and the incumbent LECs.

     There will be two network agreements between AT&T Business Services Group
and AT&T Consumer Services Group.

     - Master Carrier Agreement.  This agreement will specify the rates, terms
       and conditions on which AT&T Business Services Group will provide voice,
       data, IP dial-up access and other services to AT&T Consumer Services
       Group both for internal corporate purposes and for resale to other
       customers. AT&T Consumer Services Group will procure all of its covered
       telecommunications needs during the 3-year term of the agreement from
       AT&T Business Services Group, and pricing will be based on costs, but
       will be no less favorable than provided by AT&T Business Services Group
       to other similarly situated customers.

     - Intercarrier Compensation Agreement.  This agreement will specify the
       terms under which AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer Services
       Group will charge each other for:

        -- the origination and termination of interexchange traffic; and

        -- the exchange of local traffic between each other's local customers.

In addition, there will be a number of other agreements governing the provision
of other services between AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer
Services Group.

     FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

     Loans between groups will be made at interest rates and on other terms and
conditions designed to be substantially equivalent to the interest rates and
other terms and conditions that the borrowing group would be able to obtain from
third parties, including the public markets, as a non-affiliate of AT&T without
the benefit of any guaranty by AT&T or any member of any AT&T group. This policy
contemplates that these loans will be made on the basis set forth above,
regardless of the interest rates and other terms and conditions on which AT&T or
members of any AT&T group may have acquired the funds. If, however, a group
incurs any fees or charges in order to keep available funds for use by another
group, those fees or charges will be allocated to the borrowing group.

     We may borrow funds and provide the proceeds to AT&T Business Services
Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group on the terms and
conditions described above and subject to market availability. We may also cause
these groups to loan funds to AT&T.

     In the case of AT&T Broadband Group, the financial statements included
elsewhere in this document reflect a cost of borrowing slightly in excess of the
cost historically achieved at the consolidated AT&T level. In the case of each
of AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group, the financial
statements included elsewhere in this document make no distinction between the
inter-group rate and the cost at which consolidated AT&T was historically able
to raise funds in the external market. In both of these cases, AT&T believes
that the inter-group

                                       141
   148

rate is a reasonable estimate of the rate of borrowing in the external market.
However, in the future, although AT&T Consumer Services Group is expected to be
part of the same legal entity as AT&T Business Services Group, AT&T Consumer
Services Group may be charged interest at a rate higher or lower than that of
AT&T Business Services Group. The actual rates of interest charged or paid by
any of the groups in the future is uncertain and will depend on a variety of
factors including the credit profile of the group and market conditions. As a
result, future interest rates charged or paid by any of the groups may
materially exceed those reflected in the financial statements included elsewhere
in this document.

     ACCOUNTING MATTERS

     Following issuance of any shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
and/or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, AT&T will prepare financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
consistently applied, for AT&T Broadband Group and/or AT&T Consumer Services
Group, as applicable, as well as full consolidated financial statements of AT&T.
The financial statements and information for each of the groups principally will
reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the
businesses included in those groups, respectively. Notwithstanding any
allocation of assets or liabilities for dividend purposes or the purpose of
preparing group financial statements, holders of AT&T common stock and holders
of AT&T tracking stocks will continue to be subject to risks associated with an
investment in a single corporation and all of AT&T's businesses, assets and
liabilities.

     TAX SHARING AGREEMENT

     Prior to issuance of any shares of AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock, AT&T Consumer Services Group, AT&T Business
Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group will enter into a tax sharing agreement
that will provide for tax sharing payments between these three groups based on
the taxes or tax benefits of a hypothetical affiliated group consisting of these
three groups. Each of these three groups shall generally be responsible for the
taxes attributable to its lines of business and entities comprising its group as
of such date.

     This hypothetical group will not include Liberty Media Group or AT&T
Wireless Group. A separate tax sharing agreement exists between AT&T and Liberty
Media Group under which tax sharing payments are made between AT&T and Liberty
Media Group to the extent that the taxes of the actual affiliated group of which
AT&T is the common parent are increased or decreased as a result of the
inclusion of Liberty Media Group in that affiliated group. In addition, a
separate tax sharing agreement exists between AT&T and AT&T Wireless Group that
provides for tax sharing payments between AT&T and AT&T Wireless Group based on
the taxes or tax benefits of a hypothetical affiliated group consisting of AT&T
and AT&T Wireless Group with respect to taxable periods ending after the
issuance of the shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. This hypothetical
group does not include Liberty Media Group.

     Under the tax sharing agreement between AT&T Consumer Services Group, AT&T
Business Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group, the consolidated tax liability
before credits of the hypothetical group will be allocated to each group and
based on each group's contribution to consolidated taxable income of the
hypothetical group. This allocation will take into account losses, deductions
and other tax attributes, such as capital losses or charitable deductions, that
are utilized by the hypothetical group even if these attributes could not be
utilized on a stand-alone basis. Tax sharing payments in respect of the
consolidated tax liability of the hypothetical group, after allocation of
consolidated tax credits, will be made between AT&T Consumer Services Group,
AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group consistent with the
allocations under the tax sharing agreement. In addition, under the tax sharing
agreement, each tracking stock group will be responsible for all tax items (and
benefits from all tax benefits) resulting from the attribution of assets or
interests to such group, or transfer to a legal entity that is a member of such
group of assets, as well as any tax items and benefits resulting from the
distribution of the stock of any company the

                                       142
   149

assets of which are tracked by such group's tracking stock. Tax items or tax
benefits arising from or related to assets or interests that are not tracked by
either AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock will be for the account of AT&T Business Services Group.

     The tax sharing payments under the tax sharing agreement assume that the
members of AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group, and AT&T Business
Services Group are members of the same affiliated, consolidated, combined or
unitary group for the relevant U.S. federal, state, local or foreign income tax
purposes with respect to taxable periods ending after the issuance of the shares
of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock and AT&T Broadband Group tracking
stock. It is possible, however, that the Internal Revenue Service may assert
that AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock is not stock of AT&T, in which case each of the groups may not be
members of the same U.S. federal income tax affiliated group filing consolidated
returns. AT&T believes that it is unlikely that the Internal Revenue Service
would prevail on that view, but no assurance can be given in that regard. Each
group will be responsible under the tax sharing agreement for any
corporate-level taxes resulting from the treatment of its tracking stock as not
stock of AT&T, and any corporate-level taxes on the actual or deemed disposition
of assets caused by the issuance of its tracking stock.

     Non-income tax liabilities will generally be allocated based on line of
business as of the Issue Date. As between AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T
Business Services Group, if the tax liability is associated with a particular
line of business, but the portion of the tax liability associated with the line
of business is not readily determinable, then the tax liability will be shared
between the businesses based on an allocation formula.

     With respect to taxes resulting from audit adjustments other than those
relating to characterization of tracking stock as not stock of AT&T or relating
to the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., tax liabilities will
generally be allocated among the three groups based on line of business. If the
liability is not directly attributable to a line of business or entity of a
single group and the AT&T Business Services Group financials reflect a reserve
for such liability, then AT&T Business Services Group will bear 100% of such
liability.

     AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer
Services Group may each carry back a loss, credit or other tax attribute from a
post-spin-off period to a pre-spin-off period to the extent permitted by
applicable law.

EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. ON AT&T
BROADBAND GROUP

     Under the terms of the Broadband Group tracking stock amendment, if the
businesses, assets and liabilities of AT&T are substantially equivalent to the
business, assets and liabilities of AT&T Broadband Group, our board of directors
may redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock for
shares of AT&T common stock as described under "The Broadband Charter Amendment
Proposal -- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock Amendment --
Redemption." Following the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., we
expect that AT&T then will consist of AT&T Broadband Group. For this reason,
following the spin-off, we expect to redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock for shares of AT&T common stock as permitted by
the terms of the Broadband Group tracking stock amendment. See "The Broadband
Charter Amendment Proposal -- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock
Amendment -- Redemption."

EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. ON AT&T
CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP

     AT&T Consumer Services Group will be part of the larger AT&T Communications
Services, Inc., which will consist of AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T
Consumer Services Group. See "Description of AT&T Communications Services, Inc."
Consequently, if we complete the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.,
all of the assets and liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services Group are expected
to be spun-off as well and be part of the new entity. We intend that, in
connection with the spin-off, all of the outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer
Services tracking stock will be redeemed for shares of the new Consumer Services
Group tracking stock, as permitted by the terms of the Consumer Services Group
tracking stock amendment. The new Consumer Services Group tracking stock would
be intended to continue to reflect the financial performance and economic value
of the business, assets and liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services Group and have
terms substantially similar to AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, but
would be stock of the newly spun-off AT&T Communications Services, Inc., as
opposed to AT&T. See "The Consumer Services Charter Amendment Proposal -- Terms
of the Consumer Services Group Tracking Stock Amendment -- Redemption."

                          THE INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSALS

GENERAL

     We currently issue stock-based awards to our employees and non-employee
directors under the AT&T 1997 Long Term Incentive Program, or 1997 incentive
plan. AT&T's shareholders approved this plan in 1997 and approved amendments to
the plan in 1999 and 2000. As of           , this plan authorized a total of
approximately           million shares of AT&T common stock and
million shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock for stock-based awards
consisting of:

     - stock options, including incentive stock options, or ISOs, under the
       Code,

     - SARs in tandem with stock options or free-standing,

     - restricted stock,

     - performance shares and performance units conditioned upon meeting
       performance criteria, and

     - other awards of stock or awards valued, in whole or in part, by reference
       to, or otherwise based on, stock or other property of AT&T, or other
       stock unit awards.

     In connection with any award or any deferred award, payments also may be
made representing dividends or their equivalent.

     In anticipation of the issuance of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, our board of directors will approve
the adoption of the AT&T Broadband Group 2001 Long Term Incentive Program, or
Broadband incentive plan, and the AT&T Consumer Services Group 2001 Long Term
Incentive Program, or Consumer Services incentive plan, or together, 2001
incentive plans, subject to the approval of shareholders of AT&T. The 2001
incentive plans will be substantially similar to the 1997 incentive plan, except
that instead of providing for awards based on AT&T common stock and AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stock, the Broadband incentive plan provides for awards
based on AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and the Consumer Services incentive
plan provides for awards based on AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

     Approval of each of the 2001 incentive plans requires a majority of the
votes cast by all outstanding shares of AT&T common stock, Liberty Media Group
tracking stock and AT&T Wireless Group tracking stocks to vote in its favor. OUR
BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF EACH OF THE 2001
INCENTIVE PLANS. Any shares not voted, whether by abstention, broker non-vote or
otherwise, will have no affect on the approval of the incentive plan proposals.

     Our board of directors will not implement the 2001 incentive plans unless
our shareholders approve the corresponding charter amendment proposal.

     The 1997 incentive plan, and a number of additional compensation plans,
under which stock-based awards with respect to AT&T common stock are
outstanding, are administered by the Compensation and Employee Benefits
Committee of our board of directors, subject to delegations by the Compensation
and Employee Benefits Committee to AT&T's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,
committees comprised of other AT&T senior officers or other compensation
committees that may be designated in the additional plans. If approved, the 2001
incentive plans are expected to be administered in the same manner.

DESCRIPTION OF 2001 INCENTIVE PLANS

     ADMINISTRATION AND ELIGIBILITY

     Each of the 2001 incentive plans will be administered by a committee, each
of the members of which is a "non-employee director" as defined in the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and an "outside director" as
defined in the Code. Under each of the 2001 incentive plans, the committee has
the authority to select employees to whom awards are granted, to determine the
types of awards and the number of shares covered, and to set the terms,
conditions, and provisions of these

                                       145
   152

awards and to cancel or suspend awards. In each case, the committee is
authorized to interpret the incentive plan and to establish, amend, and rescind
any rules and regulations relating to the incentive plan, to determine the terms
and provisions of any agreements entered into under the incentive plan, and to
make all other determinations which may be necessary or advisable for the
administration of the plan. Prospectively, all employees and directors of AT&T
and its subsidiaries and other affiliates are eligible to be participants in the
2001 incentive plans, except employees of Liberty Media Group.

     SHARES SUBJECT TO PLANS

     Subject to adjustment as described below, the following shares will be
available for awards granted under the 2001 incentive plans during their terms:

     - Under the Broadband incentive plan,        million shares of AT&T
       Broadband Group tracking stock; and

     - Under the Consumer Services incentive plan,        million shares of AT&T
       Consumer Services Group tracking stock.

     If another company is acquired by AT&T, or combines with AT&T, any shares
of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock issued or reserved for issuance as a result of the assumption or
substitution of outstanding grants of the acquired company would not be deemed
issued under the applicable plan and would not be subtracted from the shares of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock available for grant under the applicable incentive plan. If any shares
subject to any award under either of the 2001 incentive plans are forfeited, or
such award is settled for cash, or expires, or is otherwise terminated without
issuance of shares, the shares subject to such award will again be available for
grant under that incentive plan. The number of shares available for awards under
each of the 2001 incentive plans will also increase by the number of shares AT&T
withholds or tenders in connection with the payment of the exercise price of an
option or other award under that incentive plan or the satisfaction of tax
withholding obligations. The shares of stock deliverable under the 2001
incentive plans may consist in whole or in part of authorized and unissued
shares, treasury shares, or shares purchased in the open market, or otherwise.

     STOCK OPTIONS

     The price per share of stock purchasable under any stock option will be
determined by a committee, but will not be less than 100% of the fair market
value of the stock on the date of the grant of such option. The term of each
option will be fixed by the committee. Options will be exercisable at such time
or times as determined by the committee, but no stock option will be exercisable
after the expiration of ten years from the date the option is granted.

     STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

     An SAR may be granted free-standing or in tandem with new options or after
the grant of a related option that is not an ISO. Upon exercise of an SAR, the
holder of that SAR is entitled to receive the excess of the fair market value of
the shares for which the right is exercised, calculated as of the exercise date
or, if the committee shall so determine in the case of any SAR, not related to
an ISO, as of any time during a specified period before the exercise date, over
the grant price of the SAR. The grant price, which will not be less than the
fair market value of the shares on the date of grant, and other terms of the SAR
will be determined by the committee. Payment by AT&T upon exercise of an SAR
will be in cash, stock, other property or any combination, as the committee
determines. Unless otherwise determined by the committee, any related option
will no longer be exercisable to the extent the SAR has been exercised and the
exercise of an option will cancel the related SAR to the extent of the exercise.

                                       146
   153

     RESTRICTED STOCK

     Restricted stock may not be disposed of by the recipient until certain
restrictions established by the committee lapse. Recipients of restricted stock
are not required to provide consideration other than the rendering of services
or the payment of any minimum amount required by law. The participant will have,
with respect to restricted stock, all of the rights of a shareholder of AT&T,
including the right to vote the shares, and the right to receive any cash
dividends, unless the committee determines otherwise. Upon termination of
employment during the restriction period, all restricted stock shall be
forfeited, subject to such exceptions, if any, as are authorized by the
committee.

     PERFORMANCE AWARDS

     From time to time, the committee may select a period during which
performance criteria determined by the committee are measured for the purpose of
determining the extent to which a performance award has been earned. Performance
awards may be in the form of performance shares, which are units valued by
reference to shares of stock, or performance units, which are units valued by
reference to cash or property other than stock. Performance awards may be paid
in cash, stock, other property, or a combination thereof. Recipients of
performance awards are not required to provide consideration other than the
rendering of service or the payment of any minimum amount required by law.

     OTHER STOCK UNIT AWARDS

     The committee is authorized to grant other stock unit awards to
participants, either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the
plan. Other stock unit awards may be paid in tracking stock, cash, or any other
form of property as the committee determines.

     NONASSIGNABILITY OF AWARDS

     Unless the committee determines otherwise at the time of an award, no award
granted under the 2001 incentive plans may be assigned, transferred, pledged or
otherwise encumbered by a participant, other than by will, by designation of a
beneficiary after death, or by the laws of descent and distribution. Each award
will be exercisable, during the participant's lifetime, only by the participant,
or, if permissible under applicable law, by the participant's guardian or legal
representative.

     DEFERRALS OF AWARDS

     The committee may permit participants to defer the distribution of all or
part of the specified stock, cash or other consideration in accordance with the
terms and conditions as the committee shall establish.

     ADJUSTMENTS

     In the event of any change affecting the shares of tracking stock subject
to either of the 2001 incentive plans by reason of any stock dividend or split,
recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination,
or exchange of shares or other corporate change, or any distributions to common
shareholders other than cash dividends, the committee will substitute or adjust
the aggregate number or class of shares that may be distributed under the
applicable incentive plan (including the substitution of similar options to
purchase shares of, or other awards denominated in shares of, another company)
and substitute or adjust the number, class, and option price or other price of
shares subject to the outstanding awards granted under the applicable incentive
plan as the committee deems to be appropriate to maintain the purpose of the
original grant.

     The committee will be authorized to make adjustments in performance award
criteria or in the terms and conditions of other awards in recognition of
unusual or nonrecurring events affecting AT&T or AT&T's financial statements or
changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles. The committee
may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency

                                       147
   154

in the 2001 incentive plans or any award in the manner and to the extent it
shall deem desirable to carry the incentive plan into effect.

     AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     Our board of directors may assume responsibilities otherwise assigned to
the committee under the 2001 incentive plans and may amend, alter, or
discontinue the 2001 incentive plans or any portion thereof at any time,
provided that no such action will impair the rights of a participant without the
participant's consent and provided that no incentive plan amendment will be made
without shareholder approval either to increase the number of shares available
under the 2001 incentive plans or if such approval is necessary to qualify for
or to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement. The committee may amend the
terms of any award granted under the 2001 incentive plans, prospectively or
retroactively, but no amendment may impair the rights of any participant without
his or her consent or amend the terms of any option to reduce the option price.

     TERM

     No awards will be granted under the 2001 incentive plans after
               , 2011.

     PLAN BENEFITS

     Because the 2001 incentive plans are discretionary and based on AT&T's
financial performance, it is not possible to determine or to estimate the
benefits or amounts that will be received in the future by individual employees
or groups of employees under the 2001 incentive plans.

     SECTION 162(m) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION

     If the committee determines at the time restricted stock, a performance
award, or other stock unit award is granted under either of the 2001 incentive
plans to a participant who is, or is likely to be, as of the end of the tax year
in which AT&T would claim a tax deduction in connection with such award, a
"covered employee" under Section 162(m) of the Code, then the committee may
provide as to such award that the lapsing of restrictions thereon and the
distribution of cash, shares, or other property pursuant thereto, as applicable,
shall be subject to the achievement of one or more objective performance goals
established by the committee, which will be based on the achievement of
specified levels of one or any combination of the following: net cash provided
by operating activities, earnings per share from continuing operations,
operating income, revenues, cash flow, return on investment, gross margin,
return on operating assets, return on equity, economic value added, stock price
appreciation, total shareholder return, or cost control of AT&T or the affiliate
or division of AT&T for or within which the participant is primarily employed.
Performance goals also may be based on achievement of specified levels of AT&T
performance, or performance of the applicable affiliate or division of AT&T,
including of AT&T Broadband Group or of AT&T Consumer Services Group, under one
or more of the measures described above relative to the performance of other
corporations.

     The 2001 incentive plans provide that, subject to any adjustments described
above, no participant may be granted options and/or SARs in any
     -calendar-year period with respect to more than        million shares of
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and more than        million shares of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock, respectively, and that the maximum
dollar value payable with respect to other performance units or other stock unit
awards that are valued with reference to property other than shares of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock,
respectively, and granted to any participant in any one calendar year is
       .

     CHANGE OF CONTROL

     Each of the 2001 incentive plans will contain provisions requiring or
permitting the vesting of awards or the acceleration of options and similar
adjustments in the event of a change of control.

                                       148
   155

     TAX ASPECTS OF THE PLANS

     We believe that under present law, the following are the federal tax
consequences generally arising with respect to awards granted under the 2001
incentive plans. The grant of an option or SAR will create no tax consequences
for an employee or AT&T. The employee will have no taxable income upon
exercising an ISO (except that the alternative minimum tax may apply), and AT&T
will receive no deduction when an ISO is exercised. Upon exercising an SAR or an
option other than an ISO, the employee must recognize ordinary income equal to
the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the stock
on the date of exercise; AT&T will be entitled to a deduction for the same
amount. The treatment to an employee of a disposition of shares acquired through
the exercise of an option depends on how long the shares have been held and if
such shares were acquired by exercising an ISO or by exercising an option other
than an ISO. Generally, there will be no tax consequence to AT&T in connection
with a disposition of shares acquired under an option, except that AT&T may be
entitled to a deduction in the case of a disposition of shares acquired under an
ISO before the applicable ISO holding periods have been satisfied.

     With respect to other awards granted under the 2001 incentive plans that
are settled either in cash or in stock or other property that is either
transferable or not subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, the participant
must recognize ordinary income equal to the cash or the fair market value of
shares or other property received; AT&T will generally be entitled to a
deduction for the same amount. With respect to awards that are settled in stock
or other property that is restricted as to transferability and subject to
substantial risk of forfeiture, the participant must recognize ordinary income
equal to the fair market value of the shares or other property received at the
first time the shares or other property become transferable or not subject to
substantial risk of forfeiture, whichever occurs earlier; AT&T will generally be
entitled to a deduction for the same amount.

BOARD ADJUSTMENT TO OUTSTANDING STOCK-BASED AWARDS

     On the date of the contemplated spin-off of AT&T Communications Services
Inc., existing stock-based awards outstanding under the 1997 incentive plan, the
2001 incentive plans and the additional compensation plans would be adjusted in
accordance with the provisions of the plans in a manner intended to preserve the
intrinsic value of the original awards immediately before and after the
contemplated split-off. The adjustments would be effected by means of one or
more of (1) an adjustment to the exercise price or the number of shares, or
both, of stock-based awards related to any class of security, (2) the grant of
additional or replacement awards of a different class or classes of securities,
or (3) other appropriate adjustments including cash payments.

RECOMMENDATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED THE INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL AND
RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSALS.

                                       149
   156

                             THE SPIN-OFF PROPOSAL

GENERAL

     As part of AT&T's restructuring plan, within about a year after we issue
AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock, we plan to spin off AT&T Communications
Services, Inc., which will consist of both AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T
Consumer Services Group, but will not include any retained portion of the value
of AT&T Wireless Group, AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services Group
(except its expected $3 billion in value of shares of AT&T Wireless Services,
Inc.). Following the spin-off, AT&T will change its name to "AT&T Broadband
Corp." and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will change its name to "AT&T
Corp." Approval of the spin-off proposal will also constitute approval of the
proposed name changes.

     We expect that the spin-off will be accomplished through the following
steps, any or all of which may be effected simultaneously:

     - Transfer all of the assets and liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services
       Group and AT&T Business Services Group to AT&T Communications Services,
       Inc., to the extent such assets and liabilities are not already held by
       AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

     - Distribute on a pro rata basis to holders of AT&T common stock as a
       dividend shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock.

     - Mandatorily redeem, in accordance with the terms of our charter, all
       issued and outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
       stock for shares of the new Consumer Services Group tracking stock of
       AT&T Communications Services, Inc. The new Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock will continue to be intended to reflect the financial
       performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group, but will
       be capital stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., not of AT&T.

     After the mandatory redemption is completed, holders of AT&T Consumer
Services Group tracking stock that do not hold shares of AT&T common stock no
longer will be shareholders of AT&T.

     The specific terms and conditions of the spin-off of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. are expected to be governed by the separation and distribution
agreement to be entered into among AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
The material expected terms of the separation and distribution agreement are
summarized below.

     In addition, we expect that AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
will enter into a number of other agreements in connection with the spin-off. We
expect these agreements to include:

     - brand license agreement, including brand assignment,

     - network services agreements,

     - employee benefits agreement,

     - intellectual property agreement, including intellectual property
       assignment, and

     - interim and other services agreements.

     The material expected terms of these agreements are described below.
However, other than possible assignments concerning AT&T's brands or other
intellectual property, we do not expect that any of these agreements will be
entered into until immediately before the spin-off, and each of AT&T and AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. reserves the right to materially change the terms
of these agreements.

SEPARATION AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

     The separation and distribution agreement will set forth the agreements
among AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. with respect to the principal
corporate transactions required to

                                       150
   157

effect the spin-off, and a number of other agreements governing the relationship
between AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. following the spin-off. We
expect to execute the separation and distribution agreement and to finalize the
transfers called for under a related asset transfer agreement immediately before
the spin-off. We only expect to enter into the separation and distribution
agreement, and to complete the spin-off, if our board of directors determines
that it is in AT&T's best interests to do so, considering all factors at the
time, and if specified conditions are met. These conditions include, among
others, receipt of a favorable ruling on the spin-off from the Internal Revenue
Service, receipt of shareholder approval, license transfer and other material
consents necessary for asset transfers.

     While we currently intend to complete the spin-off, our board of directors
may decide not to proceed with the spin-off due to future financial conditions,
superior alternatives or the occurrence of other factors that make it
inadvisable to proceed with the spin-off, even if the specified conditions are
met. Additionally, other events or circumstances, including litigation, could
occur and could affect the timing or terms of the spin-off and/or our ability or
plans to complete it. As a result, the spin-off may not occur, and, if it does
occur, it may not occur on the terms or in the manner described, or in the time
frame contemplated.

     THE SEPARATION

     We will agree pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement to
transfer, or to cause our subsidiaries to transfer, to AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.:

     - all assets allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group or AT&T Business
       Services Group by our charter that are not then held by AT&T
       Communications Services, Inc.;

     - all assets reflected in the most recent balance sheets of each of AT&T
       Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group that are not
       then held by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.;

     - specified contracts that relate to AT&T Consumer Services Group or the
       AT&T Business Services Group; and

     - any other assets of AT&T that are not part of Liberty Media Group, AT&T
       Wireless Group or AT&T Broadband Group.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also will agree to assume or fulfill:

     - all liabilities allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group or AT&T
       Business Services Group by our charter to which AT&T Communications
       Services, Inc. or its subsidiaries are not then subject;

     - all liabilities reflected in the most recent balance sheet of each of
       AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group to which
       AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is not then subject;

     - all liabilities of AT&T not allocated to Liberty Media Group, AT&T
       Wireless Group or AT&T Broadband Group;

     - specified liabilities resulting from the spin-off; and

     - other specified liabilities.

     AT&T Broadband Corp. will also be assigned certain specified contingent
liabilities.

     Generally, neither AT&T nor AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will make
any representation or warranty as to:

     - the assets, businesses or liabilities transferred or assumed;

     - any consents or approvals required in connection with that transfer or
       assumption;

     - the value or freedom from any lien or other security interest of any of
       the assets; and

                                       151
   158

     - the absence of any defenses or freedom from counterclaims relating to any
       claim of any person, or as to the legal sufficiency of any assignment,
       document or instrument delivered to convey title to any asset
       transferred.

     In addition, all assets are being transferred on an "as is, where is"
basis, and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will agree to bear the economic
and legal risks that the conveyance is insufficient to vest good and marketable
title, free and clear of any lien or other security interest.

     AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. generally also will agree to
terminate all agreements, understandings and arrangements among AT&T and AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. with specified exceptions, other than the
separation and distribution agreement and the other intercompany agreements
entered into by the groups in contemplation of the establishment of the tracking
stock arrangements or subsequent separation.

     THE EXCHANGE AND THE DISTRIBUTION

     Following completion of the transactions described under "-- The
Separation," AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will deliver to an exchange
agent a stock certificate representing the shares of the new Consumer Services
Group tracking stock that will be delivered in exchange for shares of AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock. See "The Consumer Services Charter
Amendment Proposal -- Terms of the Consumer Services Group Tracking Stock
Amendment -- Redemption." AT&T would then deliver to the exchange agent a stock
certificate representing the shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common
stock to be distributed pro rata to holders of AT&T common stock.

     AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will issue no fractional shares
in either the exchange or the distribution, and, instead, will issue cash to
holders of AT&T common stock and AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock in
lieu of those fractional shares.

     RELEASES AND INDEMNIFICATION

     The separation and distribution agreement generally will provide for a full
and complete release and discharge, as of the date of the completion of the
mandatory exchange, of all liabilities existing or arising from all acts and
events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have
failed to occur and all conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or

AT&T and its affiliates, on the one hand, and AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

arrangements existing or alleged to exist between or among them on or before
that date, other than the separation and distribution agreement and the other
intercompany agreements entered into by the groups in contemplation of the
establishment of the tracking stock arrangements or subsequent separation.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will agree to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless AT&T and its affiliates, and each of their directors, officers and
employees, from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or
resulting from:

neither party will have any liability or further obligation to any other party.

     AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

therefor throughout the world, and the goodwill they symbolize, together with
all associated license agreements (including the brand license agreements with
AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group), will be transferred to
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. or a company to be held by AT&T

who were employees of AT&T or its affiliates and are transferred to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. or its affiliates as transferred individuals.

                                       153
   160

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s plans will fully recognize and fully

make a one-time election to transfer their accounts to the AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. 401(k) Plan. Each transferred individual will vest in his accrued

individuals will also be entitled to a distribution of their accounts under the
AT&T Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AGREEMENTS

     AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. expect to enter into an
intellectual property agreement, including intellectual property assignment,
unless the assignment of AT&T's intellectual property is effected prior to the
spin-off. At or before the spin-off, all rights, title and interest in AT&T's
patents, patent applications, copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual

RECOMMENDATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED THE SPIN-OFF PROPOSAL AND RECOMMENDS
THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE SPIN-OFF PROPOSAL.

EFFECT OF THE SPIN-OFF ON AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP AND ON AT&T CONSUMER
SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is part of the larger AT&T Communications
Services, Inc., which also includes AT&T Business Services Group. Consequently,
if we complete the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., all of the
assets and liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services Group will be spun off as well
and be part of the new entity. As mentioned above, we intend that, in connection
with the spin-off, all of the outstanding shares of AT&T Consumer Services
tracking stock will be redeemed for shares of the new Consumer Services Group
tracking stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. The new Consumer Services
Group tracking stock will generally have terms substantially similar to AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock, but will be stock of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. as opposed to AT&T, and the per share voting rights of the new
Consumer Services Group tracking stock will be based on the ratio, over a fixed
measurement period, of the initial trading prices of the new Consumer Services
Group tracking stock to the trading prices of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
common stock. See "The Consumer Services Charter Amendment Proposal -- Terms of
the Consumer Services Group Tracking Stock Amendment -- Redemption."

EFFECT OF THE SPIN-OFF ON AT&T BROADBAND GROUP AND ON AT&T BROADBAND GROUP
TRACKING STOCK

     Following the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., we expect
that AT&T will consist only of AT&T Broadband Group. For this reason, following
the spin-off, we expect to redeem all outstanding shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock for shares of AT&T common stock as permitted by the terms of the
Broadband Group tracking stock amendment. See "The Broadband Charter Amendment
Proposal -- Terms of the Broadband Group Tracking Stock Amendment --
Redemption."

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     GENERAL

     We summarize below the material U.S. federal income tax consequences
relating to the spin-off. The summary is based on the Code, the Treasury
regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial opinions, published positions of
the Internal Revenue Service, and all other applicable authorities, all of which
are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect). Any such change could
alter the tax consequences to us and the holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group
tracking stock or AT&T common stock.

     This summary does not discuss all tax considerations that may be relevant
to stockholders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it address
the consequences to stockholders subject to special treatment under the U.S.
federal income tax laws (such as tax-exempt entities, non-resident alien
individuals, foreign entities, foreign trusts and estates and beneficiaries
thereof, persons who acquire our common stock pursuant to the exercise of
employee stock options or otherwise as compensation, insurance companies, and
dealers in securities.) In addition, this summary does not address the U.S.
federal income tax consequences to stockholders who do not hold their AT&T
common stock or AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock as a capital asset.
This summary does not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences.

     WE URGE YOU TO CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR CONCERNING THE U.S. FEDERAL,
STATE AND LOCAL, AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF TO YOU.

     U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     It is a condition to the spin-off that AT&T has obtained a private letter
ruling from the Internal Revenue Service which confirms, among other things,
that the spin-off will qualify as tax-free to AT&T and its shareholders under
Section 355 of the Code. To the extent this summary describes the federal income
tax consequences of the distribution and the redemption, such consequences are
expected to be set forth in the Internal Revenue Service ruling. Although the
ruling relating to the qualification of the redemption and distribution as a
tax-free transaction is generally binding on the Internal Revenue Service, the
continuing validity of the ruling is subject to factual representations and
assumptions. We are not aware of any facts or circumstances that would cause
such representations and assumptions to be untrue.

     DISTRIBUTION

     Subject to the discussion below relating to the receipt of cash instead of
fractional shares, and assuming receipt of the private letter ruling from the
Internal Revenue Service, for U.S. federal income tax purposes the tax
consequences of the distribution of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common
stock to holders of AT&T common stock are as follows:

     - no gain or loss will be recognized by, and no amount will be included in
       the income of, AT&T upon the distribution;

     - no gain or loss will be recognized by, and no amount will be included in
       the income of, stockholders upon their receipt of shares of AT&T
       Communications Services, Inc. common stock in the distribution;

     - a holder of AT&T common stock will apportion the tax basis for such
       holder's AT&T common stock on which AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
       common stock is distributed between AT&T common stock and AT&T
       Communications Services, Inc. common stock received in the distribution
       (including any fractional shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
       common stock deemed received) in proportion to the relative fair market
       values of such AT&T common stock and AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
       common stock on the date of the distribution; and

     - the holding period of shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common
       stock received by a holder of AT&T common stock in the distribution will
       include the period during which

                                       155
   162

       such holder held AT&T common stock on which AT&T Communications Services,
       Inc. common stock is distributed.

     REDEMPTION

     Subject to the discussion below relating to the receipt of cash instead of
fractional shares, and assuming receipt of the private letter ruling from the
Internal Revenue Service, for U.S. federal income tax purposes the tax
consequences of the redemption of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock
are as follows:

     - no gain or loss will be recognized by, and no amount will be included in
       the income of, AT&T upon the redemption of AT&T Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock for new Consumer Services Group tracking stock;

     - no gain or loss will be recognized by, and no amount will be included in
       the income of, stockholders upon their receipt of shares of new Consumer
       Services Group tracking stock in the redemption;

     - the aggregate tax basis of the shares of new Consumer Services Group
       tracking stock received by stockholders in the redemption will be the
       same as the aggregate tax basis of the shares of AT&T Consumer Services
       Group tracking stock exchanged therefor; and

     - the holding period of the shares of new Consumer Services Group tracking
       stock received by stockholders in the redemption will include the holding
       period of the shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock with
       respect to which the shares of new Consumer Services Group tracking stock
       were received.

     RECEIPT OF CASH INSTEAD OF FRACTIONAL SHARES

     No fractional shares of new Consumer Services Group tracking stock or AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. common stock will be issued in the distribution or
the redemption. All fractional shares resulting from the distribution and the
redemption will be aggregated and sold by the exchange agent and the proceeds
will be distributed to the owners of such fractional shares.

     A stockholder who receives cash instead of a fractional share interest in
the redemption or the distribution will generally recognize gain or loss in an
amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the
portion of such stockholder's tax basis allocable to such fractional share
interest. Such gain or loss will be treated as capital gain or loss. For
taxpayers who are individuals, if their fractional share interest has a holding
period for U.S. federal income tax purposes of more than one year, any gain will
generally be subject to a stated maximum rate of 20%. In general, for purposes
of the spin-off, a person's holding period for a fractional share interest will
include the period during which such person held AT&T common stock or the period
during which such person held AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock, as
the case may be, with respect to which such fractional share interest was
received.

     Under the Code, if you receive cash in lieu of a fractional share interest,
you may be subject, under certain circumstances, to backup withholding at a 31%
rate with respect to such cash unless you provide proof of an applicable
exemption or a correct taxpayer identification number, and otherwise comply with
applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. The letter of
transmittal provides instructions on how to provide us with information to
prevent backup withholding with respect to cash received in the spin-off in lieu
of a fractional share interest. Any amounts withheld under the backup
withholding rules are not an additional tax and may be refunded or credited
against your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided you furnish the
required information to the Internal Revenue Service.

     Holders who have blocks of AT&T common stock or AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock with different per share tax bases are urged to consult
their tax advisors regarding the possible tax basis consequences to them of the
spin-off.

                                       156
   163

     Current Treasury Regulations require each holder who receives new Consumer
Services Group tracking stock or AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock
pursuant to the spin-off to attach to his or her federal income tax return for
the year in which the spin-off occurs, a detailed statement setting forth such
data as may be appropriate in order to show the applicability of Section 355 of
the Code to the spin-off. AT&T will provide the appropriate information to each
stockholder of record.

STOCK EXCHANGE OR QUOTATION SYSTEM LISTING

     Application will be made to have both AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
common stock issued in the spin-off and the new Consumer Services Group tracking
stock approved for listing on a national securities exchange or quotation
system.

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT

     Upon receipt of necessary approvals, AT&T will report AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. as Discontinued Operations, in accordance with APB Opinion No. 30
"Reporting the Results of Operations -- Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions" (APB 30). For accounting purposes, the split-off of
AT&T Consumer Services Group is considered a non pro rata distribution and is
expected to be recorded at fair value resulting in the recognition of a gain on
the remaining AT&T entity upon the distribution date. The spin-off of AT&T
Business Services Group will be a pro rata distribution and therefore recorded
at historical cost.

                  DESCRIPTION OF AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP

     The description below of AT&T Business Services Group reflects our current
plans regarding the operation of AT&T Business Services Group. These plans may
change from time to time prior to or after the spin-off.

OVERVIEW

     AT&T Business Services Group is one of the nation's largest business
services telecommunications providers, providing a variety of global
communications services to large domestic and multinational businesses, small
and medium-sized businesses, and government agencies. Business units within this
group provide regular and custom voice services (including local, long distance,
and international outbound, 800, 877 and 888 and 900 services), data and IP
services (including private line, frame relay, ATM services) as well as hosting,
outsourcing and other consulting services. AT&T Business Services Group operates
one of the largest telecommunications networks in the United States.

AT&T BUSINESS SERVICES GROUP

     Following the issuance of AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock and AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock and prior to the spin-off, AT&T common
stock will represent AT&T Business Services Group, which is expected to be
comprised of (1) all assets and liabilities not attributable to Liberty Media
Group, AT&T Wireless Group, AT&T Broadband Group or AT&T Consumer Services
Group, and (2) the retained portion of value in AT&T Broadband Group. The
primary operating asset of AT&T Business Services Group is the AT&T Business
Services business, and except as described elsewhere in this document, we
attribute all of AT&T's current Business Services operations to AT&T Business
Services Group, including:

     - Business Services business telecommunications customers,

     - the AT&T telecommunications network,

     - Business Services support infrastructure, including ordering,
       provisioning, billing and care,

     - AT&T Labs,

                                       158
   165

     - AT&T brands,

     - AT&T intellectual property,

     - our $3 billion retained interest in AT&T Wireless Services, Inc., and

     - a number of joint ventures and investments, including Concert, AT&T Latin
       America, AT&T Canada, Alestra and Alascom.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

     The communications services industry continues to change, both domestically
and internationally, providing significant opportunities and risks to the
participants in these markets. Factors that have been driving this change
include:

     - technological advances, such as the Internet,

     - rapid development of new services and products,

     - the Telecommunications Act,

     - deregulation of communications services markets in selected countries
       around the world, and

     - entry of new competitors in existing and emerging markets.

     Each of these factors is impacted by the rapid development of data
services. The development of frame relay, ATM and IP networks has dramatically
transformed the array and breadth of services offered by telecommunications
carriers.

     Use of the Internet, including intranets and extranets, has grown rapidly
in recent years. This growth has been driven by a number of factors, including
the large and growing installed base of personal computers, improvements in
network architectures, increasing numbers of network-enabled applications,
emergence of compelling content and commerce-enabling technologies, and easier,
faster and cheaper Internet access. Consequently, the Internet has become an
important new global communications and commerce medium. The Internet represents
an opportunity for enterprises to interact in new and different ways with both
existing and prospective customers, employees, suppliers and partners.
Enterprises are responding to this opportunity by substantially increasing their
investment in Internet connectivity and services to enhance internal
productivity as well as market competitiveness.

     The market for data communications and Internet access and related products
is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards,
emerging competition and frequent new product and service introductions.
Developments in technology are further increasing the capacity and lifespan of
previously deployed fibers.

     In the United States, the Telecommunications Act has had a significant
impact on AT&T Business Services Group's business by establishing a statutory
framework for opening the local service markets to competition and by allowing
RBOCs to provide in-region long distance services. In addition, prices for long
distance minutes and other basic communications services have declined as a
result of competitive pressures, introduction of more efficient networks and
advanced technologies, product substitution, and deregulation. Competition in
these segments is based more on price and less on other differentiating factors
that appeal to the larger business market customers, including range of services
offered, bundling of products, customer service, and communications quality,
reliability and availability.

STRATEGY

     The strategy of AT&T Business Services Group is to use the advantages of
its existing customer base, network and technical personnel to continue to be
the market leader in evolving

                                       159
   166

telecommunications connectivity services for business customers. AT&T Business
Services Group intends to leverage its position as a connectivity leader to
become a leader in added value managed telecommunications services as well as
telecommunication outsourcing solutions. The following areas are critical to
this transformation.

     PROVIDE SEAMLESS SERVICE TO CUSTOMERS

     AT&T Business Services Group believes that a key element to its success in
the provision of the services to business customers is to provide a seamless
experience for those customers in all stages of service provision. Customers
will have one point of contact for their entire AT&T Business Services Group
relationship, from contracting to service delivery, whether located domestically
or internationally. AT&T Business Services Group believes this will
substantially enhance its customers' reliance on its services and improve
customer satisfaction, retention levels and migration to new, advanced services.

     END-TO-END CONNECTIVITY

     In connection with providing seamless service to customers, AT&T Business
Services Group believes it must provide its customers with end-to-end
connectivity in order to ensure the high level of service that AT&T Business
Services Group customers expect. AT&T Business Services Group plans to increase
the use of its own facilities to complete customer communications on its own
network assets. The ability to offer local connectivity is expected to reduce
access costs and to provide AT&T Business Services Group with the ability to
offer more bundled services and improve customer experience.

     SERVICE TRANSPARENCY

     AT&T Business Services Group network utilizes circuit switched, IP and ATM
systems. While AT&T will continue to have both circuit and packet switching and
transmission technologies for some time, significant future capital expenditures
are not scheduled for circuit switching. As AT&T Business Services Group
continues to enhance the capabilities of its network, its goal is to ensure
service transparency over any of the systems used in its network.

     TECHNOLOGICAL LEADERSHIP

     AT&T Business Services Group has one of the most advanced networks in the
world. In addition, through AT&T Labs, AT&T Business Services Group has
demonstrated its ability to develop new applications for business communications
customers.

     MANAGED SERVICE OPTIONS

     AT&T Business Services Group intends to decrease its reliance on
traditional voice services that are experiencing intense pricing pressures, and
primarily focus on high-growth and high-value-added data services. AT&T Business
Services Group managed services offerings, including AT&T outsourcing solutions,
lead the market in providing businesses with managed solutions to communications
needs. AT&T Business Services Group intends to expand its target market for
managed services offerings from large multinational corporations to mid-size
companies by customizing a number of its offers to satisfy certain targeted
markets. In addition, AT&T Business Services Group intends to expand its web
hosting and managed data capabilities through platform consolidations and the
introduction of a number of new services.

     BUILD NEW APPLICATIONS ON VOICE/IP TRANSPORT PLATFORMS

     AT&T Business Services Group intends to remain at the forefront of IP
implementation. IP is a protocol that allows for market driven development and
deployment of new services and applications. AT&T Business Services Group expect
IP services such as IP Virtual Private Networks to proliferate

                                       160
   167

and will use its tradition of pioneering innovative Internet infrastructure
services to continuously expand its Internet value-added services.

SERVICES AND PRODUCTS

     VOICE SERVICES

     Long distance voice services.  AT&T Business Services Group's voice
communication offerings include the traditional "one plus" dialing of domestic
and international long distance for customers that select AT&T Business Services
Group as their primary long distance carrier.

     AT&T Business Services Group's data services include private line and
special access services that use high-capacity digital circuits to carry voice,
data and video (or multimedia) transmission from point-to-point in multiple
configurations. These services provide high-volume customers with a direct
connection to an AT&T Business Services Group switch instead of switched access
shared by many users. These services permit customers to create internal
computer networks, to access external computer networks and the Internet, as
well as to reduce originating access costs.

     AT&T Business Services Group also offers toll-free (800, 888 or 877)
inbound service, where the receiving party pays for the call. This is used in a
wide variety of applications, many of which generate revenue for the user (such
as reservation centers or customer service centers). AT&T Business Services
Group offers a variety of features to enhance customers' toll-free service,
including call routing by origination point and time-of-day routing.

     AT&T Business Services Group also offers a variety of calling cards that
allow the user to place calls from virtually anywhere in the world. Additional
features include prepaid phone cards, conference calling, international
origination, information service access (such as weather or stock quotes), Speed
Dialing and voice messaging.

     Business Local Services.  Local carriers provide local exchange, exchange
access, toll and resold services; sell, install and maintain customer premises
equipment; and provide operator and directory services. The market for local
exchange services consists of a number of distinct service components. These
service components are defined by specific regulatory tariff classifications
including: (1) local network services, which generally include basic dial tone
charges and private line services; (2) network access services, which consist of
access charges received by LECs from long distance carriers for the local
transport and termination portion of long distance telephone calls; (3) long
distance network services, which include the variable portion of charges
received by LECs for intraLATA long distance calls; and (4) additional
value-added services, such as Caller Identification, Call Waiting, Call
Forwarding, 3-Way Calling and Voice Mail.

     AT&T Business Local's customers principally are
telecommunications-intensive businesses, health care and educational
institutions, governmental agencies, long distance carriers and resellers, ISPs,
disaster recovery service providers and wireless communications and financial
services companies. AT&T Business Local's centrally managed customer care and
support operations are designed to facilitate the installation of new services
and the processing of orders for changes and upgrades in customer services.

     AT&T Business Local generally offers its services in accordance with
applicable tariffs filed with state regulatory agencies (for intrastate
services). AT&T Business Local typically offers local service as part of a
package of services, which can include any combination of other AT&T Business
Services Group offerings. Customers also choose among analog, digital voice-only
and ISDN Centrex telephone lines to their desktops. AT&T Business Services Group
owns, houses, manages and maintains the switch, while customers retain control
over network configurations, allowing customers to add, delete and move lines as
needed. For local service, customers are billed a fixed charge plus usage.

generally provide for payments at fixed rates based on the capacity and length
of the circuit used. Customers typically are billed on a monthly basis and also
may incur an installation charge or certain ancillary charges for equipment.
After the expiration of a service agreement, the service agreement may be
renewed or the services may be provided on a month-to-month basis. Switched
service agreements generally are offered on a month-to-month basis and the
service is billed on a minutes-of-use basis. More recently, AT&T Business
Services Group also has sold network capacity through indefeasible rights-of-use
agreements under which capacity is furnished for contract terms as long as 25
years.

     INTERNATIONAL

     AT&T Business Services Group has established a number of international
alliances to increase the reach and scope of AT&T Business Services Group's
services and network over time and has made strategic investments in order to
seek to increase the range of services AT&T Business Services Group offers in
those countries. These investments have included Alestra in Mexico and Japan
Telecom in Japan. On February 26, 2001, AT&T entered into an agreement to sell
its interest in Japan Telecom to Vodafone. This sale was completed in April
2001.

     On January 5, 2000, AT&T and BT created a global venture to serve the
communications needs of multinational companies and the international calling
needs of businesses around the world. The venture, called Concert and owned
equally by AT&T Business Services Group and BT, combined transborder assets and
operations of each company, including their existing international networks,
their international traffic, their transborder products for business
customers -- including an expanding set of Concert services -- and AT&T Business
Services Group's and BT's multinational accounts in selected industry sectors.
AT&T and BT are discussing ways to improve the performance of the business.
These discussions include a variety of strategic alternatives to the Concert
joint venture, including an acquisition of, or a business combination of our
business services unit, upon its planned separation from the remainder of AT&T,
with, BT's business services operations. Such a transaction could include all or
a substantial portion of BT's business services operations, including BT Ignite
and BT's interest in Concert, in exchange for some mixture of cash, equity
and/or other instruments in the combined business. These discussions may or may
not lead to any acquisition or other business combination and may or may not
lead to any change in the existing alliance arrangements. As possible
alternatives to such a transaction, we have also been considering a narrowing of
Concert's business scope, as well as its termination as a joint venture. There
can be no assurances, however, that an agreement could be reached with BT with
regard to either of such alternatives. We cannot tell you whether these
discussions will continue, whether any of these transactions, or other
transactions, will be completed, or the timing or terms of any possible
transaction.

     On June 1, 1999, AT&T Canada Corp. merged with MetroNet Communications
Corp., Canada's largest competitive LEC. Under the terms of the merger
agreement, AT&T Business Services Group received 31% of the equity interest and
23% of the voting interest in AT&T Canada, Inc., or AT&T Canada, in exchange for
AT&T Canada Corp. and ACC TelEnterprises Ltd. In addition, AT&T Business
Services Group agreed to purchase all of the remaining shares of AT&T Canada at
the greater of the then appraised fair market value or the accreted minimum
price, which initially was C$37.50 accreting after June 30, 2000 at a rate of
16% per annum, compounded quarterly. If the acquisition is not completed by June
30, 2003, those shares, along with AT&T Business Services Group's shares, would
be sold through an auction process and AT&T Business Services Group will make
whole the other shareholders for the amount they would have been entitled to if
AT&T Business Services Group had purchased all of the remaining shares of AT&T
Canada. The completion of the acquisition is subject to the condition that AT&T
Business Services Group is permitted to acquire the shares under Canada's
foreign ownership restrictions. AT&T Business Services Group may acquire the
shares prior to a change in the ownership restrictions by developing a structure
that addresses these ownership restrictions. On August 16, 1999, AT&T Business
Services Group completed its sale to BT of 30% of AT&T Business Services Group's
stake in AT&T Canada. In addition, BT has agreed to purchase 30% of the shares
of AT&T Canada that AT&T Business Services Group will be acquiring from the
other stockholders, subject to BT's right to cap its purchase at $1.65 billion.

     On August 28, 2000, AT&T Business Services Group established AT&T Latin
America in connection with the merger of Netstream, a competitive LEC in Brazil,
and FirstCom Corporation, a publicly traded company with competitive
telecommunications operations in Chile, Colombia and Peru. AT&T Business
Services Group owns 58% of AT&T Latin America; SL Participacoes, an affiliate of
Promon Tecnologia, which is the former owner of Netstream, owns 7% of AT&T Latin
America, and the former FirstCom shareholders own 34% of AT&T Latin America, on
a fully diluted basis. Promon Tecnologia and the former FirstCom shareholders
own AT&T Latin America Class A shares, which have one vote per share, and AT&T
Business Services Group owns AT&T Latin America Class B shares, which have 10
votes per share.

MARKETING AND SALES

     AT&T Business Services Group has a dedicated sales force through which it
markets its voice and data communication services. The sales force predominantly
is divided into geographic markets, and in each market focuses on large,
multinational corporations, small businesses, government markets, and
value-added resellers and other wholesalers. AT&T Business Services Group
employs full service support teams to provide significant customer support and
service to help increase customer satisfaction and retention. A number of AT&T
Business Services Group's larger global accounts are served directly by Concert,
with AT&T Business Services Group as an underlying supplier of specified
services to Concert.

RATES AND BILLING

     AT&T Business Services Group offers its regulated services in most cases in
accordance with applicable tariffs filed with the FCC and various states. Rates
can vary due to a number of factors, including the volume and nature of service
committed to AT&T Business Services Group. AT&T Business Services Group expects
to offer its interstate services on a detariffed basis after July 2001. AT&T
Business Services Group offers voice and data services individually and in
combination with other offerings. Through combined offerings, AT&T Business
Services Group provides customers with benefits such as single billing, unified
services for multilocation companies and customized calling plans.

     Domestic and international business services originating in the United
States primarily are billed in six-second increments, while other business
services are billed in partial minutes rounded to the next minute. Switched
voice services originating in international markets are billed in increments,
subject to local market conditions and interconnect agreements. Switched long
distance and local services are billed in arrears, with monthly billing
statements itemizing date, time, duration and charges. Data services generally
are billed on a fixed per line and variable trunk rate. Data service rates are
based on the speed of transmission, and, depending on the service type, may be
billed in arrears or in advance. Private line services are billed monthly in
advance, with the invoice indicating applicable rates by circuit. AT&T Business
Services Group's rates generally are designed to be competitive with those
charged by other long distance and local carriers.

OTHER ASSETS

     AT&T Business Services Group has a number of interests in other entities,
including:

       - $3 billion retained interest in AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. (not
         reflected in the financial statements), and

       - joint ventures and investments, including Concert, AT&T Latin America,
         AT&T Canada, Alestra and Alascom.

NETWORK

     AT&T Business Services Group utilizes both IP and ATM systems. Both
technologies offer significant efficiencies over circuit switched systems which
use a single, dedicated circuit to complete each transmission. ATM switching
also is a more efficient method of switching and transmitting commingled or
multimedia information. The packet switching technology breaks up a transmission
into short pieces, or packets, which are encoded and transmitted with other
packets on the same circuit, and reassembled at the desired destination. ATM
differs from IP in that the data packets used in ATM (called cells) are one size
(53 bytes), whereas in IP the data packets vary in length. Also, whereas ATM
establishes virtual circuits to ensure that the information sent is reassembled
at its destination in its proper sequence, IP ships each packet of information
to its destination by a different path. While AT&T Business Services Group will
continue to have both circuit and packet switching and transmission technologies
for some time, significant future capital expenditures are not scheduled for
circuit switching.

     AT&T Business Services Group's U.S. network comprises 45,000 route miles of
long-haul backbone fiber-optic cable, plus another 16,000 route miles of local
metro fiber. In addition, AT&T Business Services Group is currently installing
16,500 new route miles of the latest generation fiber-optic cable, able to carry
OC-192 (10 trillion bits, or 10 gigabits per second) traffic more efficiently
than older fiber, and capable of carrying OC-768 (40 gigabits per second) when
that standard is ready for deployment. This new next generation network
presently connects 18 of the largest U.S. cities, and will be extended to
connect the top 30 U.S. cities. AT&T Business Services Group was the first in
the industry with a coast-to-coast OC-192 backbone, connecting Boston, New York,
Chicago, St. Louis, San Francisco and Los Angeles. In addition to this
state-of-the-art 10 gigabits per second backbone, AT&T Business Services Group
also has OC-48 (2.5 gigabits per second) facilities to more than 500
points-of-presence in the continental U.S., offering high-speed data
connectivity to the majority of U.S. business centers.

     This network carries more than 1000 trillion bytes (terabytes) of data each
day, in addition to 300 million voice calls every business day. AT&T Business
Services Group carries more Frame Relay and ATM traffic than any other U.S.
carrier; these are the packet services used by businesses for critical data
traffic. The reliability of all services is ensured by using Synchronous Optical
Network, or SONET, that can reroute circuits within 150 milliseconds of a
failure. On the voice network, AT&T Business Services Group's patented Real Time
Network Routing automatically completes domestic voice calls using more than 100
possible routes. AT&T Business Services Group stands behind its reliability
claims with Service Level Agreements. For example, on its IP backbone, AT&T
Business Services Group guarantee business customers no more than 60
milliseconds of latency (packet delay) and 0.7% packet loss per month.

     AT&T Business Services Group has been a leader in deploying Dense
Wavelength Division Multiplexing, or DWDM, technology that divides an optical
fiber into multiple channels, each carrying up to 10 gigabits per second of
information today. AT&T Business Services Group is now deploying 64- and
80-wavelength DWDM systems, and by the end of 2001 plans to deploy 160-
wavelength systems. When installed on OC-192 facilities, a 160-wavelength DWDM
system will enable 1.6 terabits (trillion bits per second) on a single fiber
strand.

     In addition to its long distance network, AT&T Business Services Group also
has an extensive local network serving business customers in 71 U.S. cities.
AT&T Business Services Group has expanded its local network so that it now
includes 109 local switches and reaches more than 6,200 buildings. This network
provides voice service to business users, as well as data connections up to
OC-48 capacity. In addition, AT&T Business Services Group is deploying Internet
Data Centers across the U.S., offering web hosting services that put data closer
to users. By the end of 2001, AT&T Business Services Group plans to have 21 of
these web hosting centers, with two million

                                       165
   172

square feet of space in the aggregate, all directly connected to AT&T Business
Services Group's high-speed IP backbone.

COMPETITION

     AT&T Business Services Group faces the same competition issues applicable
generally to the communications services industry that are discussed with
respect to AT&T Consumer Services Group. See "Description of AT&T Consumer
Services Group -- Competition" and "Risk Factors Relating to AT&T Consumer
Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group -- AT&T Consumer Services Group
and AT&T Business Services Group face substantial competition."

EMPLOYEES

     At December 31, 2000, AT&T Business Services Group employed approximately
66,400 individuals in its operations. Of those employees, approximately 61,900
are located domestically. About 19,400 of the domestically located employees of
AT&T Business Services Group are represented by unions. Of those so represented,
about 94% are represented by the Communications Workers of America and about 5%
are represented by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, both of
which are affiliated with the AFL-CIO. In addition, there is a very small
remainder of domestic employees represented by other unions. Labor agreements
with most of these unions extend through May 2002.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In the normal course of business, AT&T Business Services Group is subject
to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims, including proceedings under
government laws and regulations related to environmental and other matters. Such
matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with
assurance. Consequently, AT&T Business Services Group is unable to ascertain the
ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact with respect
to these matters at December 31, 2000. While these matters could affect
operating results of any one quarter when resolved in future periods, it is
management's opinion that after final disposition, any monetary liability or
financial impact to AT&T Business Services Group beyond that provided for at
year-end would not be material to AT&T Business Services Group's annual
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

     For additional information on legal proceedings, please see the discussion
on legal proceedings under "Legal Proceedings" contained in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, which is incorporated by
reference in this document. See "Other Information -- Where You Can Find More

                       AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC.
                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is an integrated business of AT&T and
not a stand-alone entity. The combined financial statements of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. represent the AT&T Business Services Group and
AT&T Consumer Services Group portions of AT&T, along with certain corporate
activities. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is among the world's
communications leaders, providing voice and data services to large and small
businesses, consumers and government agencies. AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. provides domestic and international long distance and regional, local and
Internet communication services. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also
provides billing, directory and calling-card services to support its
communications businesses.

     On October 25, 2000, AT&T announced a restructuring plan designed to fully
separate or issue separately tracked stocks intended to reflect the financial
performance and economic value of each of AT&T's four major operating units.
Upon completion of the plan, AT&T Wireless Group, AT&T Broadband Group, AT&T
Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group will all be represented
by asset-based or tracking stocks.

     As part of the first phase of the restructuring plan, on April 27, 2001,
AT&T began an exchange offer that will give AT&T shareholders the opportunity to
exchange any portion of their AT&T common shares for shares of AT&T Wireless
Group tracking stock, subject to proration. The exchange offer is expected to be
completed on May 25, 2001. Following the exchange offer and subject to specified
conditions, AT&T plans to split-off AT&T Wireless Group from AT&T. AT&T intends,
however, to retain up to $3 billion of shares of AT&T Wireless Services, Inc.
for future sale, exchange or monetization, and within six months following the
split-off such shares will be attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
AT&T expects AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. will become an independent,
publicly-held company in mid-2001, upon receipt of appropriate tax and other
approvals.

     In addition to the split-off of AT&T Wireless Group, AT&T intends to fully
separate or issue separate tracking stocks intended to reflect the financial
performance and economic value of each of its other major business units. AT&T
plans to create and issue new classes of stock intended to track the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Consumer
Services Group, and expects to sell some percentage of shares of AT&T Broadband
Group tracking stock later this year, subject to market and other factors.
Within 12 months of such sale, AT&T intends to completely separate AT&T
Broadband Group from AT&T through the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. The AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock is expected to be fully
distributed to AT&T shareholders later this year.

     AT&T plans to effect the spin-off in two parts. First, AT&T expects to
distribute shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock as a
dividend to holders of AT&T common stock. Second, at the same time, AT&T will
redeem all of the shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for a
new tracking stock issued by the newly spun-off AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.

     Following the spin-off of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., the remaining
AT&T would consist of AT&T Broadband Group. After the spin-off, AT&T will change
its name to "AT&T Broadband Corp." and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will
change its name to "AT&T Corp."

                                       168
   175

     AT&T expects that these transactions will be tax-free to U.S. shareholders.
AT&T's restructuring plan is complicated and involves a substantial number of
steps and transactions, including obtaining various conditions, such as Internal
Revenue Service rulings. In addition, future financial conditions, superior
alternatives or other factors may arise or occur that make it inadvisable to
proceed with part or all of AT&T's restructuring plan. Any or all of the
elements of AT&T's restructuring plan may not occur as currently expected or in
the timeframes that are currently contemplated, or at all. Alternative forms of
restructuring, including sales of interests in these businesses, would reduce
what is available for distribution to shareholders in the restructuring.

     Debt has been allocated to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. based on the
future view of AT&T's debt position after taking into account the significant
deleveraging activities of AT&T. This allocation took into account the following
factors: prospective financing requirements, desired standalone credit profile,
working capital and capital expenditure requirements and comparable company
profiles. Increases in historical debt levels were, in general, driven primarily
by historical cash flows generated by this entity in relation to total AT&T.
Such cash outflows include acquisitions, dividend payments, capital
expenditures, partially offset by cash flow from operations. For purposes of
this allocation, certain "corporate" activities were deemed to be funded by this
entity by contributing proceeds to the parent. These activities included the
repurchase of common shares by AT&T and cash payments associated with the TCI
merger and the MediaOne acquisition. Similarly, certain corporate activities
that resulted in cash flow to AT&T were deemed to be attributed to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. These activities are reflected within net
contributions (to) from AT&T in the combined statements of cash flows. At or
before the time of the spin-off, when AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is
separated from historical AT&T, we plan to seek to transfer the previously
allocated indebtedness from AT&T to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. This may
be accomplished through a variety of measures that may result in increased costs
and additional covenants on AT&T Communications Services, Inc. The historical
interest expense on the allocated debt was calculated based on a rate intended
to be equivalent to the rate AT&T Communications Services, Inc. would have
received if it were a stand-alone entity. Due to AT&T's deleveraging activities
and expected positive cash flow from operations, the $31.1 billion of debt at
December 31, 2000 is expected to be significantly lower in the future. AT&T's
expected deleveraging activities that relate to AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. include: $3 billion retained portion of AT&T Wireless Services, Inc.; $3.6
billion of the proceeds from the DoCoMo investment in AT&T preferred stock,
which will be attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.; and $0.7 billion
of gross proceeds from the sale of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
investment in Japan Telecom. Finally, AT&T has made no final determination as to
the allocation of proceeds from the sale of shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock, between AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband
Group.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The comparison of 2000 results with 1999 was impacted by events, such as
acquisitions and dispositions that occurred during these two years. For example,
in 1999, AT&T acquired the IBM Global Network (now AT&T Global Network Services,
or AGNS), which was included in 2000 results for a full year, but only a part of
1999 (since the respective date of acquisition). Further, AT&T disposed of
certain international businesses during 1999 and 2000. The results of businesses
sold in 1999 were included in 1999 results for part of the year, and were not in
2000 results. Likewise, businesses sold in 2000 were included in 1999 results
for the full year and in 2000 results for part of the year.

     On January 5, 2000, AT&T launched Concert, its global joint venture with
BT. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. contributed all of its international
gateway-to-gateway assets and the economic value of approximately 270
multinational customers specifically targeted for direct sales by Concert. As a
result, 2000 results do not include the revenue and expenses associated with
these customers and businesses, while 1999 does, and 2000 results include AT&T
Communications

                                       169
   176

Services, Inc.'s proportionate share of Concert's earnings in "Net earnings
(losses) from equity investments."

     Effective July 1, 2000, the FCC eliminated PICC that AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. pays for residential and single-line business customers. The
elimination of these per-line charges resulted in lower access expense as well
as lower revenue, since AT&T Communications Services, Inc. historically billed
its customers for these charges.

     The comparison of 1999 results with 1998 was also impacted by the 1999
acquisition of AGNS, since 1999 results include this business for part of the
year and 1998 does not include it. This comparison is also impacted by the 1999
dispositions of international businesses, which were included in 1999 results
for part of the year, but were in 1998 results for the full year.

     Total revenue decreased 5.2%, or $2.6 billion, in 2000 compared with the
prior year. Approximately $1.5 billion of the decrease was due to the impact of
Concert, dispositions and the elimination of PICC, partially offset by
acquisitions. The remaining $1.1 billion decrease was primarily driven by
continued and accelerating declines in long distance voice revenue, partially
offset by a growing demand for AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s data and IP
products, and outsourcing services. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. expects
long distance voice revenue to continue to be negatively impacted by ongoing
competition and product substitution.

     Total revenue in 1999 increased $2.3 billion, or 4.7%, compared with 1998.
Approximately $1.4 billion of the increase was due to acquisitions, net of
dispositions. The remaining increase was fueled by growth in business data,
business long distance voice and outsourcing revenue, partially offset by the
continued decline of consumer long distance voice revenue.

     Revenue by segment is discussed in more detail in the segment results
section.

Access and other connection...............................  $13,139    $14,439    $15,116


     Access and other connection expenses decreased 9.0%, to $13.1 billion in
2000, compared with $14.4 billion in 1999. Included within access and other
connection expenses are costs that AT&T Communications Services, Inc. pays to
connect domestic calls on the facilities of other service providers. Mandated
reductions in per-minute access costs and decreased per-line charges resulted in
lower costs of approximately $1.5 billion. Also contributing to the decrease was
more efficient network usage. These decreases were partially offset by
approximately $0.6 billion of higher costs due to volume increases, and $0.5
billion as a result of higher Universal Service Fund contributions. Since most
of these charges are passed through to the customer, the per-minute access-rate
and per-line charge reductions and the increased Universal Service Fund
contributions have generally resulted in a corresponding impact on revenue.

     Costs paid to telephone companies outside of the United States to connect
calls made to countries outside of the United States (international settlements)
are also included within access and

                                       170
   177

other connection expenses. These costs decreased approximately $0.5 billion in
2000, as result of the commencement of operations of Concert. Concert now incurs
most of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s international settlements as well
as earns most of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s foreign-billed revenue,
previously incurred and earned directly by AT&T Communications Services, Inc. In
2000, Concert billed us a net expense composed of international settlement
(interconnection) expense and foreign-billed revenue. The amount charged by
Concert in 2000 was lower than interconnection expense incurred in 1999, since
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded these transactions as revenue and
expense, as applicable. Partially offsetting the decline were costs incurred
related to Concert products that the company now sells to its customers.

     Access and other connection expenses declined $0.7 billion, or 4.5%, in
1999 compared with the prior year. This decline resulted from $0.9 billion of
mandated reductions in per-minute access rates in 1999 and 1998, and $0.6
billion of lower international settlement rates resulting from AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s negotiations with international carriers.
Additionally, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. continues to manage these costs
through more efficient network usage. These reductions were partially offset by
$0.8 billion of higher costs due to volume growth, and $0.3 billion as a result
of increased per-line charges and Universal Service Fund contributions.

Costs of services and products..............................  $8,588    $8,560    $8,344


     Costs of services and products include the costs of operating and
maintaining AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s networks, costs to support AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s outsourcing contracts, the provision for
uncollectible receivables and other service-related costs.

     These costs were essentially flat in 2000 compared with 1999. Cost of
services and products expenses increased approximately $0.6 billion due to
higher costs associated with AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s new
outsourcing contracts as well as additional network costs to support other
growth businesses. Additionally, cost of services and products expenses
increased nearly $0.3 billion due to acquisitions, net of the impact of Concert
and divestments of international businesses. These increases were partially
offset by approximately $0.9 billion of costs savings from continued cost
control initiatives and a higher pension credit in 2000, primarily driven by a
higher pension trust asset base, resulting from increased investment returns.

     Costs of services and products rose $0.2 billion, or 2.6%, in 1999 compared
with 1998, primarily due to acquisitions, net of international dispositions,
which accounted for approximately $0.9 billion of the increase. Higher costs
associated with new outsourcing contracts increased expenses by approximately
$0.2 billion. Partially offsetting the 1999 increases were lower expenses
related to per-call compensation expense, provision for uncollectible
receivables and gross receipts and property taxes aggregating approximately $0.6
billion as well as network cost-control initiatives of approximately $0.4
billion.

Selling, general and administrative.........................  $7,537    $9,601    $10,656


     Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses decreased $2.1
billion, or 21.5%, in 2000 compared with 1999. Approximately $2.0 billion of the
decrease was due to savings from continued cost-control initiatives and a higher
pension credit in 2000, primarily driven by a higher pension trust asset base,
resulting from increased investment returns. Additionally, approximately $0.2
billion of the

                                       171
   178

decrease was associated with the impact of Concert and international
dispositions, net of acquisitions in 2000.

     SG&A expenses decreased $1.1 billion, or 9.9%, in 1999 compared with 1998.
The decrease was due primarily to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s continued
efforts to control costs on a companywide basis, which resulted in lower SG&A
expenses of approximately $1.0 billion, including lower spending for consumer
long distance acquisition programs. Partially offsetting these decreases was the
impact of acquisitions, net of dispositions, which resulted in an increase in
SG&A expenses of approximately $0.1 billion.

Depreciation and amortization...............................  $4,538    $4,519    $3,577


     Depreciation and amortization expenses were essentially flat in 2000
compared with 1999 and increased $0.9 billion, or 26.3%, in 1999 compared with
1998. The impact of Concert and international dispositions, net of acquisitions,
decreased depreciation and amortization expense $0.1 billion. The increase in
1999 compared with 1998 was due primarily to a higher asset base resulting from
continued infrastructure investment, and to a lesser extent, the impact of
acquisitions, which accounted for approximately $0.2 billion of the increase.
Total capital expenditures for 2000, 1999 and 1998 were $6.2 billion, $7.8
billion and $6.9 billion, respectively. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
continues to focus the vast majority of its capital spending on its growth
businesses of data and IP and local.

Net restructuring and other charges.........................  $759    $331    $2,514


     During 2000, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded $759 million of
net restructuring and other charges, which included $668 million for
restructuring and exit costs associated with AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s initiative to reduce costs by the end of 2000, and $91 million related to
the government-mandated disposition of AT&T Communications (U.K.) Ltd., which
would have competed directly with Concert.

     The charge for restructuring and exit plans was primarily due to headcount
reductions, mainly in network operations and AT&T Business Services Group,
including the consolidation of customer-care and call centers.

     Included in exit costs was $442 million of cash termination benefits
associated with the separation of approximately 6,200 employees. Approximately
one-half were management and one-half were nonmanagement employees.
Approximately 5,600 employee separations were related to involuntary
terminations and approximately 600 to voluntary terminations.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also recorded $62 million of network
lease and other contract termination costs associated with penalties incurred as
part of notifying vendors of the termination of these contracts during the year.

     Also included in restructuring and exit costs in 2000 was $144 million of
benefit curtailment costs associated with employee separations as part of these
exit plans. Further, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded an asset
impairment charge of $18 million related to the write-down of unrecoverable
assets in certain business functions in which the carrying value is no longer
supported by estimated future cash flows.

                                       172
   179

     The 2000 restructuring initiatives are projected to yield cash savings of
approximately $610 million per year, as well as EBIT (earnings before interest
and taxes, including pre-tax minority interest and net pre-tax losses from other
equity investments) savings of approximately $650 million per year. The EBIT
savings, primarily attributable to reduced personnel-related expenses, will be
realized in SG&A expenses and costs of services and products.

     During 1999, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded $331 million of
net restructuring and other charges.

     A $145 million charge for restructuring and exit costs was recorded in
conjunction with an initiative to reduce costs. The restructuring and exit plans
primarily focus on the maximization of synergies through headcount reductions in
AT&T Business Services Group and network operations, including the consolidation
of customer-care and call centers.

     Included in exit costs was $142 million of cash termination benefits
associated with the separation of approximately 2,800 employees as part of
voluntary and involuntary termination plans. Approximately one-half of the
separations were management employees and one-half were nonmanagement employees.
Approximately 1,700 employee separations were related to involuntary termination
plans and 1,100 to voluntary terminations.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also recorded a net loss of $307 million
related to the government-mandated disposition of certain international
businesses that would have competed directly with Concert. In addition, AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. recorded benefits of $121 million related to the
settlement of pension obligations for former employees who accepted AT&T's 1998
VRIP offer.

     During 1998, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded $2,514 million of
net restructuring and other charges. The bulk of the charge was associated with
an overall cost-reduction program and the approximately 15,300 management
employees who accepted the VRIP offer. A restructuring charge of $2,724 million
was composed of $2,254 million and $169 million for pension and postretirement
special-termination benefits, respectively, $263 million of benefit curtailment
losses and $38 million of other administrative costs. AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. also recorded charges of $125 million for related facility costs
and $150 million for executive-separation costs. These charges were partially
offset by benefits of $940 million as AT&T Communications Services, Inc. settled
pension benefit obligations of 13,700 of the total VRIP employees. In addition,
the VRIP charges were partially offset by the reversal of $256 million of 1995
business restructuring reserves primarily resulting from the overlap of VRIP
with certain 1995 restructuring initiatives.

     Also included in the 1998 net restructuring and other charges were asset
impairment charges totaling $718 million, of which $633 million was related to
AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s decision not to pursue Total Service Resale
as a local service strategy. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also recorded an
$85 million asset impairment charge related to the write-down of unrecoverable
assets in certain international operations where the carrying value was no
longer supported by estimated future cash flows. This charge was made in
connection with the review of certain operations that would have competed
directly with Concert.

     Additionally, $85 million of merger related expenses were recorded in 1998
in connection with the Teleport Communications Group Inc., or TCG, merger, which
was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Partially offsetting this charge
was a $92 million reversal of the 1995 restructuring reserve. This reserve
reflected reserves no longer deemed necessary. The reversal primarily included
separation

                                       173
   180

costs attributed to projects completed at a cost lower than originally
anticipated. Consistent with the three-year plan, the 1995 restructuring
initiatives were substantially completed by the end of 1998.

Operating income...........................................  $12,960    $12,702    $7,683


     Operating income increased $0.3 billion, or 2.0%, in 2000 compared with
1999. The increase was primarily due to cost-control initiatives and a larger
pension credit associated with AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s mature long
distance businesses and related support groups, partially offset by lower long
distance revenue and higher net restructuring and other charges.

     Operating income rose $5.0 billion, or 65.3%, in 1999 compared with 1998.
The increase was driven by operating expense efficiencies and lower net
restructuring and other charges.

Other income................................................  $1,181    $775    $812


     Other income increased $0.4 billion, or 52.3%, in 2000 compared with 1999.
This increase was primarily due to higher investment related income and greater
net gains on sales of businesses and investments. The higher gains on sales in
2000 were primarily driven by gains on investment sales, partially offset by the
sale of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s Language Line Services business and
a portion of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s ownership interest in AT&T
Canada in 1999.

     Other income was essentially flat in 1999 compared with 1998. Lower
investment related income was partially offset by higher net gains on sales of
businesses and investments. In 1999, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded
gains associated with the sale of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s Language
Line Services business and a portion of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
ownership interest in AT&T Canada, as well as other gains on investments. In
1998, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded gains associated with the sale
of Transtech, as well as other investment sales.

Interest expense............................................  $1,643    $797    $292


     Interest expense increased 106.1%, or $0.8 billion, in 2000 compared with
1999. The increase was primarily due to a higher average debt payable to AT&T as
a result of net funding to AT&T.

     Interest expense increased $0.5 billion in 1999 compared with 1998, due to
higher average debt payable to AT&T associated with AT&T Communications

Provision for income taxes..................................  $4,493    $4,508    $3,009


     The effective income tax rate is the provision for income taxes as a
percent of income from continuing operations before income taxes. The effective
income tax rate was 35.9% in 2000, 35.5% in 1999 and 36.7% in 1998. In 2000, the
effective tax rate was impacted by the tax benefits associated with certain
foreign legal entity restructurings and foreign investments. The effective tax
rate in 1999 was positively impacted by a change in the net operating loss
utilization tax rules that resulted in a reduction in the valuation allowance
and the income tax provision as well as investment dispositions, legal entity
restructurings and other tax planning strategies. The effective tax rate for
1998 was impacted by the pooling of the TCG's historical results, which did not
include tax benefits on preacquisition losses, and the effects of certain
foreign legal entity restructurings and investment dispositions.

Minority interest income (expense)..........................   $39      $--      $(1)


     Minority interest income (expense) represents an adjustment to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. income to reflect the less than 100% ownership of
consolidated subsidiaries. The increase in minority interest in 2000 compared
with 1999 was primarily due to AT&T Latin America, which began operations in the
third quarter of 2000, of which AT&T Communications Services, Inc. owned 62.5%
at the end of 2000.

Net earnings (losses) from equity investments...............  $10     $(48)   $(109)


     Net earnings (losses) from equity investments were earnings of $10 million
in 2000, a 119.8% improvement compared with 1999. This improvement was primarily
a result of equity earnings related to Concert, whose net equity earnings were
not included in 1999, as well as additional equity earnings for Japan Telecom.
Partially offsetting the higher equity earnings were equity losses for
Net2Phone, which was acquired in the third quarter of 2000.

     Net losses from equity investments were $48 million in 1999 compared with
$109 million in 1998, primarily due to losses from AT&T Unisource Communications
Services, or AUCS, which was divested in the fourth quarter of 1998, and higher
equity earnings for Alestra, partially offset by lower earnings for AT&T Canada.

   182

     Income before extraordinary loss decreased $0.1 billion, or 0.9% in 2000
compared with 1999. The decrease was primarily due to higher interest expense,
partially offset by an increase in other income, primarily associated with
higher investment related income and net gains on sales of businesses and
investments. Also impacting net income from continuing operations was lower
expenses, partially offset by lower revenue associated with AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s mature long distance businesses.

     Income before extraordinary loss increased $3.0 billion, or 59.8%, in 1999
compared with 1998. The increase was due to revenue growth and operating expense
efficiencies, as well as lower net restructuring and other charges.

Extraordinary Items

     In August 1998, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. extinguished
approximately $1.0 billion of TCG's debt. The $217 million pre-tax loss on the
early extinguishment of debt was recorded as an extraordinary loss. The
after-tax impact was $137 million.

SEGMENT RESULTS

     In support of the services AT&T Communications Services, Inc. provided in
2000, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. segments its results by the business
units that support its primary lines of business: AT&T Business Services Group
and AT&T Consumer Services Group. The balance of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. operations is included in a Corporate and Other category.

     The discussion of segment results includes revenue; EBIT (earnings before
interest and taxes, including net pre-tax income (losses) of other equity
investments); EBITDA (EBIT plus depreciation, amortization and minority interest
income (expense)); total assets, and capital additions. Prepaid pension assets
and corporate-owned or leased real estate are generally held at the corporate
level, and therefore are included in the Corporate and Other group. Capital
additions for each segment include capital expenditures for property, plant and
equipment, additions to nonconsolidated investments and software development.

     EBIT is the primary measure used by AT&T Communication Services, Inc.'s
chief operating decision makers to measure AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
operating results and to measure segment profitability and performance. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. calculates EBIT as operating income plus net
pre-tax losses from equity investments, pre-tax minority interest income
(expense) and other income. In addition, management also uses EBITDA as a
measure of segment profitability and performance, and is defined as EBIT,
excluding minority interest income (expense),

                                       176
   183

plus depreciation and amortization. Interest and taxes are not factored into the
segment profitability measure used by the chief operating decision makers;
therefore, trends for these items are discussed on a consolidated basis.
Management believes EBIT is meaningful to investors because it provides analysis
of operating results using the same measures used by the AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s chief operating decision makers and provides a return on total
capitalization measure. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. believes EBITDA is
meaningful to investors as a measure of each segment's liquidity consistent with
the measure utilized by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s chief operating
decision makers. In addition, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. believes that
both EBIT and EBITDA allow investors a means to evaluate the financial results
of each segment in relation to total AT&T Communications Services, Inc. EBIT for
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. was $14.1 billion, $13.4 billion and $8.3
billion for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
EBITDA for AT&T Communications Services, Inc. was $18.7 billion, $17.9 billion
and $11.9 billion for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s calculation of EBIT and
EBITDA may or may not be consistent with the calculation of these measures by
other companies. EBIT and EBITDA should not be viewed by investors as an
alternative to generally accepted accounting principles measures of income as a
measure of performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing
activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, EBITDA does not take into
account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and taxes
which can affect cash flow.

     REVENUE

     In 2000, AT&T Business Services Group revenue grew $0.2 billion, or 0.7%,
compared with 1999. Strength in data and IP services as well as growth in AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s outsourcing business contributed $1.8 billion to
the increase. This growth was largely offset by an approximate $0.9 billion
decline in long distance voice services as a result of continued pricing
pressures in the industry and approximately $0.5 billion due to the net impacts
of Concert, international dispositions and acquisitions.

     Revenue in 1999 grew $3.3 billion, or 13.2%. The acquisition of AGNS
contributed approximately $1.1 billion to the growth. Data, IP and outsourcing
services grew approximately $1.5 billion in 1999 compared with 1998, while long
distance voice services and local services contributed approximately $0.6
billion to the revenue increase.

     Data services, which represent the transportation of data, rather than
voice, along AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s network, was impacted by
acquisitions and the formation of Concert. Excluding these impacts, data
services grew at a high-teens percentage rate in 2000. Growth was led by the
continued strength of frame relay services; IP services, which include
IP-connectivity services and VPN services; and high-speed private-line services.
Excluding the impact of AGNS, data services grew at a high-teens percentage rate
in 1999, led by strength in frame relay and high-speed private-line services.

     AT&T Solutions outsourcing revenue grew 47.9% in 2000 and 146.0% in 1999.
More than one-half of the 2000 growth and approximately 65% of the 1999 growth
was driven by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s acquisition of AGNS. The
remaining growth in both years was primarily due to growth from new contract
signings and add-on business from existing clients.

     Excluding the impact of Concert, long distance voice services revenue
declined at a mid single-digit percentage rate in 2000 due to a declining
average price per minute reflecting the competitive forces within the industry
which are expected to continue. Partially offsetting this decline was a high
single-digit percentage growth rate in minutes. In 1999, long distance voice
revenue grew at a low single-digit percentage rate, as volumes grew at a
high-teens percentage rate, which was largely offset by a declining average rate
per minute.

     Local voice service revenue grew nearly 20% in 2000 and more than 50% in
1999. During 2000, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. added more than 867,000
access lines, with the total reaching nearly 2.3 million at the end of the year.
During 1999, AT&T added more than 719,000 access lines. Access lines enable AT&T
to provide local service to customers by allowing direct connection from
customer equipment to the AT&T Communications Services, Inc. network. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. serves more than 6,000 buildings on-network
(buildings where AT&T Communications Services, Inc. owns the fiber that runs
into the building), representing an increase of approximately 3.5% over 1999. At
the end of 1999, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. served just over 5,800
buildings on-network compared with approximately 5,200 buildings at the end of
1998.

     AT&T Business Services Group internal revenue decreased $26 million, or
7.4%, in 2000 and increased $65 million, or 23.2%, in 1999. The decrease in 2000
was the result of lower sales of Network services to AT&T WorldNet Service,
which resells such services to its customers. The increase in 1999 was due to
greater sales of Network services to AT&T WorldNet Service.

     EBIT/EBITDA

     EBIT improved $0.7 billion, or 14.2%, and EBITDA improved $0.7 billion, or
7.7%, in 2000 compared with 1999. This improvement reflects lower costs as a
result of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s continued cost-control efforts
and an increase in revenue, partially offset by the formation of Concert and the
acquisition of AGNS.

     In 1999, EBIT improved $1.2 billion, or 30.2%, and EBITDA improved $2.1
billion, or 28.1%, compared with 1998. These increases were driven by revenue
growth combined with margin

                                       178
   185

improvement resulting from ongoing cost-control initiatives. The increase in
EBIT was offset somewhat by increased depreciation and amortization expenses
resulting from increased capital expenditures aimed at data, IP and local
services.

     OTHER ITEMS

     Capital additions decreased $2.3 billion in 2000, and increased $2.3
billion in 1999. In 2000, the decrease was a result of lower spending for AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s long distance network (including the data
network) and lower investment in nonconsolidated international investments. In
1999, the increase was primarily due to the additional spending for AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s build out of the local services SONET transport
network and increased nonconsolidated international investments that support our
global strategy.

     Total assets increased $5.1 billion, or 13.4%, at December 31, 2000,
compared with December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to net increases
in property, plant and equipment as a result of capital additions, as well as
receivables from Concert, and higher goodwill due to AT&T Latin America.

     REVENUE

     AT&T Consumer Services Group revenue declined 13.1%, or $2.9 billion, in
2000 compared with 1999. Approximately $0.9 billion of the decline was due to
the elimination of per-line charges in 2000 and the impact of Concert. The
remainder of the decline was primarily due to a decline in traditional voice
services, such as Domestic Dial 1, reflecting the ongoing competitive nature of
the consumer long distance industry, which has resulted in pricing pressures and
a loss of market share. Also negatively impacting revenue was product
substitution and market migration away from direct-dial wireline and
higher-priced calling-card services to the rapidly growing wireless services and
lower-priced prepaid card services. As a result, calling volumes declined at a
mid single-digit percentage rate in 2000. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
expects competition and product substitution to continue to negatively impact
AT&T Consumer Services Group revenue.

     In August 1999, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. introduced AT&T One
Rate, which allows customers to make long distance calls, 24 hours a day, seven
days a week, for the same rate.

                                       179
   186

These One Rate offers continue to be well received in the market with more than
12 million customers enrolled since the plan's introduction. In addition, AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. has been successful in packaging services in the
consumer market, by giving customers the option of intraLATA service with its
One Rate offers. More than 60% of the customers enrolled in One Rate have chosen
AT&T Consumer Services Group as their intraLATA provider.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group any distance New York Local One Rate offer,
which combines both local and long distance service, has experienced high
customer acceptance. AT&T Consumer Services Group ended the year with nearly
760,000 customers under this plan.

     In 1999, AT&T Consumer Services Group revenue decreased $1.0 billion, or
4.4%, on a mid single-digit percentage decline in volumes. The 1999 decline
reflects the ongoing competitive nature of the consumer long distance industry,
as well as product substitution and market migration away from direct dial and
higher-priced calling card services to rapidly growing wireless services and
lower-priced prepaid card services.

     EBIT/EBITDA

     EBIT and EBITDA declined $0.7 billion, or 9.6%, in 2000 compared with 1999.
The declines in EBIT and EBITDA primarily reflect the decline in the long
distance business, offset somewhat by cost-control initiatives. In addition, the
declines reflect $0.2 billion of lower gains on sales of businesses, primarily
the 1999 sale of Language Line Services, and higher restructuring charges.
Reflecting AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s cost-control initiatives, EBIT
and EBITDA margins in 2000 improved to 36.1% and 37.0%, respectively, compared
with 34.7% and 35.5%, respectively, in 1999.

     EBIT grew $1.4 billion, or 21.9%, and EBITDA grew $1.4 billion, or 22.5%,
in 1999. The EBIT margin improved to 34.7% in 1999 (excluding the gain on the
sale of Language Line Services, the 1999 EBIT margin was 34.0%) from 27.2% in
the prior year. The EBIT and EBITDA growth for 1999 reflects ongoing
cost-reduction efforts, particularly in marketing spending, as well as lower
negotiated settlement rates.

     OTHER ITEMS

     Capital additions decreased $0.2 billion, or 50.6%, in 2000 as a result of
reduced spending on software development as most of the functionality upgrades
were completed in 1999. In 1999, capital additions increased $0.2 billion, or
201.9%, primarily due to increased spending on software development to add more
functionality to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s services and in support of
AT&T WorldNet Service subscriber growth.

     Total assets declined $0.5 billion, or 13.0%, during 2000. The decline was
primarily due to assets transferred to Concert during 2000, as well as lower
accounts receivable, reflecting lower revenue.

CORPORATE AND OTHER

     This group reflects the results of certain corporate staff functions and
the elimination of transactions between segments.

     REVENUE

     Revenue for corporate and other of negative $0.3 billion, primarily
includes the elimination of intercompany revenue, which decreased $20 million in
2000 compared with 1999. For 1999, revenue decreased $63 million, or 27.6%. The
decline was driven primarily by the sale of AT&T Solutions Customer Care, or
ASCC, in 1998.

     EBIT/EBITDA

     EBIT and EBITDA in 2000 increased $0.7 billion and $0.8 billion,
respectively, to $1.3 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively. The increases were
largely due to gains on sales of investments and investment related income and
an increase in the pension credit due to a higher pension trust asset base
resulting from increased investment returns. Partially offsetting these
increases were higher net restructuring and other charges.

     In 1999, EBIT and EBITDA both improved by $2.5 billion to $0.6 billion and
$0.7 billion, respectively. The improvements were driven by $2.6 billion of
lower net restructuring and other charges in 1999 compared with 1998.

     OTHER ITEMS

     Capital additions increased $1.3 billion in 2000. The increase was driven
by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s investment in 2000 in Net2Phone. 1999
capital additions were essentially flat as compared with 1998.

     Total assets increased $2.5 billion at December 31, 2000, primarily due to
AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s investment in Net2Phone and loan to
Concert.

  Provided by (used in) financing activities.............   (2,112)      1,337     (7,907)


     In 2000, net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations
increased $0.4 billion compared with 1999. Higher sources of cash in 2000 were
primarily driven by the timing of cash payments related to other operating
assets as well as an increase in net income excluding the noncash impact of net
restructuring and other charges and the provision for uncollectibles. Partially
offsetting these sources of cash were lower accounts payables and higher
receivable due from Concert. In 1999, net cash provided by operating activities
of continuing operations was essentially flat as compared with 1998. Higher
sources of cash were due primarily to an increase in net income, excluding the
noncash impact of depreciation and amortization and net restructuring and other
charges. This increase was partially offset by the timing of cash payments
related to other operating assets, and higher receivables, due primarily to
higher revenue.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. investing activities resulted in a net
use of cash of $9.1 billion in 2000, compared with a net use of cash of $13.5
billion in 1999. During 2000, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. spent $7.0
billion on capital expenditures and acquired Net2Phone for approximately $1.4
billion. During 1999, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. spent approximately
$8.7 billion on capital expenditures and approximately $4.9 billion on the
acquisition of AGNS. During 1998, net cash provided by investing activities was
$0.6 billion, due primarily to higher receivables from UCS and the net
dispositions of businesses, partially offset by capital expenditures of $6.8
billion.

     During 2000, net cash used in financing activities was $2.1 billion,
compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $1.3 billion in 1999.
In 2000, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. contributed $13.6 billion to AT&T,
primarily to fund the MediaOne acquisition, which was partially offset by the
attributed portion of the proceeds from the AT&T Wireless Group stock offering.
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. received an additional $15.0 billion from
short-term intercompany debt. Additionally, AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
made a $3.0 billion dividend payment to AT&T. In 1999, AT&T received $7.0
billion related to an increase in long-term debt payable to AT&T and $6.1
billion from the increase of short-term debt payable to AT&T. These sources of
cash were partially offset by $9.0 billion contributed to AT&T, which includes
$4.6 billion for the acquisition of treasury shares. Additionally, AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. made a $2.7 billion dividend payment to AT&T. Cash
used in financing activities in 1998 primarily related to repayment of long-term
and short-term debt, and dividends paid to AT&T.

     At December 31, 2000, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. had current assets
of $12.7 billion and current liabilities of $32.3 billion. A significant portion
of the current liabilities, $22.1 billion, relates to short-term payables to
AT&T. Financing activities of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. were managed by
AT&T on a centralized basis. Debt incurred by AT&T was allocated to and
reflected in the historical financial statements of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. The historical financial statements presented reflect cash
payments to AT&T to fund "corporate" activities such as the TCI merger and the
MediaOne acquisition, and the repurchase of AT&T common stock. Similarly,
certain corporate activities that resulted in cash flow to AT&T were deemed to
be attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. These activities are
reflected within net contributions (to) from AT&T in the combined statements of
cash flows. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. expects that it will repay a
portion of the short-term debt payable to AT&T in a variety of ways. Major
elements of this deleveraging plan include operating cashflow, the attribution
to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. of AT&T's retained $3 billion of AT&T
Wireless stock which will be sold or monetized, the attribution of $3.6 billion
of proceeds from NTT DoCoMo's $9.8 billion investment in AT&T preferred stock
and $0.7 billion of gross proceeds from the sale of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s investment in Japan Telecom. In addition, AT&T retains the
flexibility to allocate proceeds from the AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock
offering among the AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband Group
businesses in any manner which it deems most appropriate.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s operations have been funded by
internally generated funds, which on occasion, have been transferred to AT&T,
and are reflected within net contributions (to) from AT&T within the combined
statements of cash flows. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. net contributions
(to) from AT&T were ($13.6) billion, ($9.0) billion and $1.1 billion, in 2000,
1999 and 1998, respectively. Future funding of the company's operations is
expected to be generated internally from cash flow from operations, but may
include the borrowing of funds, including additional borrowing from AT&T and/or
third party debt. Short- and long-term payables to AT&T have been made at
embedded interest rates experienced on AT&T debt. At or before the time of the
spin-off, when AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is separated from historical
AT&T, we plan to seek to transfer the previously allocated indebtedness from
AT&T to AT&T Communications

                                       182
   189

Services, Inc. This may be accomplished through a variety of measures, which may
result in increased costs and additional covenants on AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.

     In determining the initial capital structure of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc., a number of factors were considered. These factors include
prospective financing requirements, desired stand-alone credit profile, working
capital and capital expenditure requirements, expected sources of future
deleveraging, and comparable company profiles.

     Also in connection with AT&T's restructuring, AT&T has reviewed its
dividend policy as it relates to each of the new businesses. On December 20,
2000, AT&T announced that the board of directors reduced AT&T's quarterly
dividend to $0.0375 per share, from $0.22 per share.

RISK MANAGEMENT

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is exposed to market risk from changes
in foreign exchange rates and equity prices associated with affiliate companies.
On a limited basis, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. uses certain derivative
financial instruments, including options, forwards, equity hedges and other
derivative contracts, to manage these risks. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
does not use financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All
financial instruments are used in accordance with board-approved policies.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. has outstanding debt payable to AT&T,
who maintains the exposure to third parties. Hence, all interest rate swaps to
manage the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows is
maintained by AT&T.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. uses forward and option contracts to
reduce its exposure to the risk of adverse changes in currency exchange rates.
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is subject to foreign exchange risk for
foreign-currency-denominated transactions. In 1999 AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. was subject to foreign exchange risk related to reimbursements to foreign
telephone companies for their portion of the revenue billed by AT&T for calls
placed in the United States to a foreign country. AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. monitors its foreign exchange rate risk on the basis of changes in fair
value. Assuming a 10% appreciation in the U.S. dollar at December 31, 1999, the
fair value of these contracts would have resulted in additional unrealized
losses of $17 million. Because these contracts are entered into for hedging
purposes, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. believes that these losses would be
largely offset by gains on the underlying firmly committed or anticipated
transactions.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. uses equity hedges to manage its
exposure to changes in equity prices associated with stock appreciation rights
of affiliated companies. Assuming a 10% decrease in equity prices of affiliated
companies, the fair value of the equity hedges would have decreased by $1
million and $6 million at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Because
these contracts are entered into for hedging purposes, AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. believes that the decrease in fair value would be largely offset
by gains on the underlying transaction.

     In order to determine the changes in fair value of its various financial
instruments, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. uses certain modeling
techniques, namely Black-Scholes for its SARs. AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. applies rate sensitivity changes directly to its foreign currency forward
contracts.

     The changes in fair value, as discussed above, assume the occurrence of
certain adverse market conditions. They do not consider the potential effect of
favorable changes in market factors and do not represent projected losses in
fair value that AT&T Communications Services, Inc. expects to incur. Future
impacts would be based on actual developments in global financial markets. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. does not foresee any significant changes in the
strategies used to manage interest rate risk, foreign currency rate risk or
equity price risk in the near future.

                                                                2000         1999
                                                              ---------    ---------
                                                              (DOLLARS IN MILLIONS)
                                                                     
Total assets................................................   $57,013      $49,893
Total liabilities...........................................    52,178       37,288
Combined attributed net assets..............................     4,415       12,560


     Total assets increased $7.1 billion, or 14.3%, at December 31, 2000. This
increase was due to higher investments reflecting equipment contributed to
Concert, a $1.0 billion loan to Concert, and AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s investment in Net2Phone. Additionally, other receivables increased due to
Concert, goodwill increased due primarily to AT&T Latin America and property,
plant and equipment increased due to capital additions. Partially offsetting
these increases was lower cash.

     Total liabilities at December 31, 2000, increased $14.9 billion, or 39.9%,
primarily due to higher debt payable to AT&T.

     Minority interest increased $0.4 billion to $420 million, primarily
reflecting the minority interest of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
ownership of AT&T Latin America, which began operations in the third quarter of
2000.

     Total combined attributed net assets was $4.4 billion at December 31, 2000,
a decrease of 64.9% from December 31, 1999. This decrease was primarily due to
net contributions to AT&T and dividends, partially offset by higher net income.

     The ratio of total debt to total capital, (debt divided by total debt and
equity) was 87.5% at December 31, 2000, compared with 56.3% at December 31,
1999. The increase was primarily driven by higher debt, partially offset by
lower equity. The ratio of debt (net of cash) to EBITDA was 1.63X at December
31, 2000, compared with 0.84X at December 31, 1999, also reflecting higher debt.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." Among other provisions, it requires that
entities recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value.
Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivatives
would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. The effective date for this standard was delayed
via the issuance of SFAS No. 137. The effective date for SFAS No. 133 is now for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, though earlier adoption is
encouraged and retroactive application is prohibited. For AT&T Communications
Services, Inc., this means that the standard must be adopted no later than
January 1, 2001.

     In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" as an amendment to SFAS
No. 133. This statement provides clarification with regard to certain
implementation issues under SFAS No. 133 on specific types of hedges.

     On January 1, 2001, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. adopted SFAS No.
133. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded a cumulative effect of an
accounting change, net of applicable taxes, of approximately $130 million of
income, primarily attributable to its warrant portfolio. The impact of the
adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, on AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s future results of operations is dependent upon the fair values
of its

                                       184
   191

derivatives and related financial instruments and could result in pronounced
quarterly fluctuations in other income in future periods.

     In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities -- a
Replacement of FASB No. 125." This statement provides accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. Under these standards, after a transfer of financial assets, an
entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the
liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been
surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This statement
provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. This statement is
effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 140 will have a material impact on
its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On April 27, 2001, AT&T completed the sale of its stake in Japan Telecom
Co. Ltd to Vodafone Group plc. The net pre-tax gain attributable to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. is expected to be approximately $470 million.

     On April 26, 2001, AT&T initiated a 364-day accounts receivable
securitization program providing for up to $500 million of funding. Under the
program, a small percentage of accounts receivable related to AT&T Consumer
Services Group will be sold on a discounted, revolving basis, to a special
purpose, wholly owned subsidiary, which assigns interests in such receivables to
unrelated third-party financing entities.

     On March 23, 2001, AT&T signed an agreement to acquire substantially all of
the assets of NorthPoint Communications Group, Inc. valued at approximately $135
million. The acquisition includes all of Northpoint's co-locations nationwide,
certain network equipment, systems and support software and related assets,
including two leased buildings. The purchase of NorthPoint Communications Group,
Inc. is expected to be attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

          RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. AND
              AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. AND AT&T CONSUMER
SERVICES GROUP

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is part of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
and will continue to be a part of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. after the
spin-off. Consequently, if we complete the spin-off, all of the assets and
liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services Group will be spun off as well and be part
of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

THE NEW CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK

     In connection with the spin-off, all of the outstanding shares of AT&T
Consumer Services tracking stock will be redeemed for shares of the new Consumer
Services Group tracking stock, as permitted by the terms of the Consumer
Services Group tracking stock amendment. The new Consumer Services Group
tracking stock would continue to reflect the financial performance and economic
value of the business, assets and liabilities of AT&T Consumer Services Group
and have terms substantially similar to AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking
stock, but would be stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. as opposed to
AT&T. See "The Consumer Services Charter Amendment Proposal -- Terms of the
Consumer Services Group Tracking Stock Amendment -- Redemption."

                        DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK OF
                       AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC.
                             FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF

GENERAL

     Immediately after the spin-off, we expect AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s authorized capital stock to consist of                shares of preferred
stock, par value $.01,                shares of common stock, par value $0.01,
of which                shares will be the new Consumer Services Group tracking
stock.

     AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. COMMON STOCK

     The holders of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock will be
entitled to one vote for each share on all matters voted on by shareholders,
including elections of directors, and, except as otherwise required by law or
provided in any resolution adopted by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board
of directors with respect to any series of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
preferred stock (a "preferred stock designation"), the holders of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. common stock and the new Consumer Services Group
tracking stock will together possess all of the voting power of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will
not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Subject to any
preferential rights of any outstanding series of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. preferred stock created by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of
directors from time to time and to the rights of the new Consumer Services Group
tracking stock, the holders of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock
will be entitled to the dividends as may be declared from time to time by AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors from funds legally available
for dividends, and, upon liquidation, will be entitled to receive pro rata all
assets available for distribution to the holders of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. common stock. For a more complete discussion of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s expected dividend policy, see "-- Dividend
Policy."

     THE NEW CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP TRACKING STOCK

     If AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock is created prior to the
spin-off, in connection with the spin-off, we intend to redeem all outstanding
shares of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock for the new Consumer
Services Group tracking stock. The new Consumer Services Group tracking stock
will be a type of common stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc., but will
differ from AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock in that it would be
intended to reflect the financial performance and economic value of AT&T
Consumer Services Group, which would be part of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. The holders of the new Consumer Services Group tracking stock will
generally be entitled to a vote on all matters voted on by holders of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. common stock, including elections of directors,
and, except as otherwise required by law, will vote as a single class with AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. common stock. The per share voting rights of the
new Consumer Services Group tracking stock will be based on the ratio, over a
fixed measurement period, of the initial trading prices of the new Consumer
Services Group tracking stock to the trading prices of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. common stock. The other rights of holders of the new Consumer
Services Group tracking stock will be substantially similar to the rights of
holders of AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock as described under "The
Consumer Services Charter Amendment Proposal -- Terms of the Consumer Services
Group Tracking Stock Amendment."

     AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. PREFERRED STOCK

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will authorize AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors to establish one or more
series of preferred stock and to determine, with

                                       187
   194

respect to any series of preferred stock, the terms and rights of the series,
including, but not limited to:

     - the designation of the series;

     - the number of shares of the series, which number AT&T Communications
       Services, Inc.'s board of directors may later, except where otherwise
       provided in the preferred stock designation, increase or decrease, but
       not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding;

     - whether dividends, if any, will be cumulative or noncumulative, and, in
       the case of shares of any series having cumulative dividend rights, the
       date or dates or method of determining the date or dates from which
       dividends on the shares of the series having cumulative dividend rights
       shall be cumulative;

     - the rate of any dividends, or method of determining the dividends,
       payable to the holders of the shares of the series, any conditions upon
       which the dividends will be paid and the date or dates or the method for
       determining the date or dates upon which the dividends will be payable;

     - the redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the
       series;

     - the terms and amounts of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or
       redemption of shares of the series;

     - the amounts payable on and the preferences, if any, of shares of the
       series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
       dissolution or winding up of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
       affairs;

     - whether the shares of the series will be convertible or exchangeable into
       shares of any other class or series, or any other security, of AT&T
       Communications Services, Inc. or any other entity, and, if so, the
       specification of the other class or series or the other security, the
       conversion or exchange price or prices or rate or rates, any adjustments
       thereof, the date or dates as of which the shares will be convertible or
       exchangeable and all other terms and conditions upon which the conversion
       or exchange may be made;

     - restrictions on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other
       class or series; and

     - the voting rights, if any, of the holders of the shares of the series.

     We believe that the ability of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board
of directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock will provide AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. with flexibility in structuring possible future
financings and acquisitions, and in meeting other corporate needs that might
arise. The authorized shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. preferred
stock, as well as shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock,
will be available for issuance without further action by AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. shareholders unless required by applicable law or the rules of
any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. securities may be listed or traded. Listing authorities currently
require shareholder approval as a prerequisite to listing shares in several
instances, including where the present or potential issuance of shares could
result in an increase of at least 20% in the number of outstanding shares of
common stock, or in the amount of voting securities, outstanding. If the
approval of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. shareholders is not required for
the issuance of shares of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. preferred stock or
common stock, AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors may
determine not to seek shareholder approval.

     Although we believe AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors
will have no intention of immediately doing so, it could issue a series of
preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of the series, impede the
completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors will make any determination
to issue the

                                       188
   195

shares of preferred stock based on its judgment as to the best interests of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. and its shareholders. AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s board of directors, in so acting, could issue preferred stock
having terms that could discourage an acquisition attempt through which an
acquiror may be able to change the composition of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s board of directors, including a tender offer or other transaction that
some, or a majority, of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. shareholders might
believe to be in their best interests or in which AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. shareholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then-current
market price of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock.

     We expect that, as of the completion of the spin-off, shares of Series A
junior participating preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. will be reserved for issuance upon exercise of the
rights issued under AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s rights agreement. For a
more complete discussion of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s rights
agreement, see "-- Rights Agreement."

     DIVIDEND POLICY

     Following completion of the spin-off, it is currently expected that AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. will pay a total dividend equal to the current
dividend payable on AT&T common stock, one-third of which will be allocated to
AT&T Communications Services Inc. common stock and two-thirds of which will be
allocated to the new Consumer Services Group tracking stock in a manner to be
determined by the AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors. The
declaration of dividends by AT&T Communications Services Inc. and the amount
thereof will be in the discretion of its board of directors and will depend upon
its group's financial performance, the dividend policies and capital structures
of comparable companies and its group's ongoing capital needs, AT&T
Communications Services Inc.'s results of operations, financial condition, cash
requirements and future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by its board
of directors. Payment of dividends also may be restricted by loan agreements,
indentures and other transactions that AT&T Communications Services Inc. enters
into from time to time.

ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES,
INC.'S CHARTER AND BY-LAWS

     BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will provide that, except as
otherwise provided in any preferred stock designation relating to the rights of
the holders of any class or series of preferred stock to elect additional
directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors will be fixed
from time to time exclusively by a resolution adopted by a majority of the total
number of directors that AT&T Communications Services, Inc. would have if there
were no vacancies, or the whole board, but shall not be less than three. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s directors, other than those who may be elected
by the holders of any class or series of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
preferred stock having the right under a preferred stock designation to elect
additional directors under specified circumstances, will be classified into
three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, one class originally to be
elected for a term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in
2003, another class to be originally elected for a term expiring at the annual
meeting of shareholders to be held in 2004 and another class to be originally
elected for a term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in
2005, with each director to hold office until his or her successor is duly
elected and qualified. Commencing with the 2003 annual meeting of shareholders,
directors elected to succeed directors whose terms then expire will be elected
for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of
shareholders after their election, with each director to hold office until such
director's successor is duly elected and qualified.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will provide that, except as
otherwise provided in any preferred stock designation relating to the rights of
the holders of any class or series of preferred

                                       189
   196

stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, newly created
directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors and any
vacancies on AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors resulting
from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other cause will be filled
by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office,
even though less than a quorum of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of
directors, and not by the shareholders. Any director elected in accordance with
the preceding sentence will hold office for the remainder of the full term of
the class of directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy
occurred and until the director's successor shall have been duly elected and
qualified. No decrease in the number of directors constituting AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors will shorten the term of any
incumbent director. Subject to the rights of any class or series of preferred
stock having the right under a preferred stock designation to elect directors
under specified circumstances, any director may be removed from office only for
cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the
voting power of all voting stock then outstanding, voting together as a single
class.

     These provisions would preclude a third party from removing incumbent
directors and simultaneously gaining control of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s board of directors by filling the vacancies created by removal with its
own nominees. Under the classified board provisions described above, it would
take at least two elections of directors for any individual or group to gain
control of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors. Accordingly,
these provisions could discourage a third party from initiating a proxy contest,
making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to gain control of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.

     NO SHAREHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT; SPECIAL MEETINGS

     We expect AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter and by-laws to
provide that shareholders must effect any action required or permitted to be
taken at a duly called annual or special meeting of shareholders, and that those
actions may not be effected by any consent in writing by the shareholders.
Except as otherwise required by law or by any preferred stock designation,
special meetings of shareholders may be called only by a majority of the whole
board of directors or by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s Chairman. No
business other than that stated in the notice of meeting may be transacted at
any special meeting. These provisions may have the effect of delaying
consideration of a shareholder proposal until the next annual meeting unless a
special meeting of shareholders is called by AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s board of directors or AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s Chairman.

     ADVANCE NOTICE PROCEDURES

     We expect AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s by-laws to establish an
advance notice procedure for shareholders to make nominations of candidates for
election as directors or to bring other business before an annual meeting of
shareholders. These shareholder notice procedures will provide that only persons
who are nominated by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors, or
by a shareholder that was a shareholder of record at the time of giving notice
and has given timely written notice to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
Secretary before the meeting at which directors are to be elected, will be
eligible for election as directors. These shareholder notice procedures also
will provide that, at an annual meeting, only the business as has been brought
before the annual meeting by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of
directors, or by a shareholder who has given timely written notice to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s Secretary of the shareholder's intention to
bring the business before the annual meeting, may be conducted. Under these
shareholder notice procedures, for notice of shareholder nominations to be made
at, or for shareholders to bring other business before, an annual meeting, the
notice must be received by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s Secretary not
later than the close of business on the 90th calendar day nor earlier than the
close of business on the 120th calendar day before the first anniversary of the

                                       190
   197

preceding year's annual meeting, except that, if the date of the annual meeting
is more than 30 calendar days before or more than 60 calendar days after this
anniversary date, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so delivered
not earlier than the close of business on the 120th calendar day before the
annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th
calendar day before the annual meeting or the 10th calendar day following the
day on which public announcement of the annual meeting date is first made by
AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

     Nevertheless, if the number of directors to be elected to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors is increased and there is no
public announcement by AT&T Communications Services, Inc. naming all of the
nominees for director or specifying the size of AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s increased board of directors at least 100 calendar days before the first
anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting, a shareholder's notice also
will be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new
positions created by the increase, if it is delivered not later than the close
of business on the 10th calendar day following the day on which the public
announcement is first made by AT&T Communications Services, Inc. Under these
shareholder notice procedures, for notice of a shareholder nomination to be made
at a special meeting at which directors are to be elected to be timely, the
notice must be received by AT&T Communications Services, Inc. not earlier than
the close of business on the 120th calendar day before the special meeting and
not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th calendar day
before the special meeting or the 10th calendar day following the day on which
public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the
nominees proposed by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors to
be elected at the special meeting.

     In addition, under these shareholder notice procedures, a shareholder's
notice to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. proposing to nominate a person for
election as a director or relating to the conduct of business other than the
nomination of directors will be required to contain some specified information.
If the chairman of a meeting determines that an individual was not nominated, or
other business was not brought before the meeting, in accordance with AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. shareholder notice procedure, the individual will
not be eligible for election as a director, or the business will not be
conducted at the meeting, as the case may be.

     AMENDMENT

     We expect that AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will provide
that the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. voting stock then outstanding, voting together as a single class,
is required to amend provisions of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter
relating to shareholder action; the number, election and tenure of directors;
the filling of vacancies; and the removal of directors. We expect AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s charter to further provide that the related
by-laws described above, including the shareholder notice procedure, may be
amended only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the whole board or by the
affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the
outstanding shares of voting stock, voting together as a single class. We expect
that the affirmative vote of holders of at least 50% of the voting power of
outstanding shares of voting stock, voting as a single class, will be required
to amend AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s by-laws.

RIGHTS AGREEMENT

     We expect that AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors will
adopt a rights agreement on or before the completion of the spin-off. The rights
have anti-takeover effects. The rights will cause substantial dilution to a
person or group of persons that attempts to acquire AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. on terms not approved by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
board of directors. The rights should not interfere with any merger or other
business combination approved by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of
directors before the time that a person

                                       191
   198

or group has acquired beneficial ownership of a specified percentage of the
voting power or shares of all AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock
since the rights may be redeemed by AT&T Communications Services, Inc. at the
redemption price until that time.

DELAWARE BUSINESS COMBINATION STATUTE

     Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, provides
that, subject to some exceptions, an interested stockholder of a Delaware
corporation shall not engage in any business combination, including mergers or
consolidations or acquisitions of additional shares of the corporation, with the
corporation for a three-year period following the date that the stockholder
becomes an interested stockholder unless:

     - before the date of the business combination, the corporation's board of
       directors approved either the business combination or the transaction
       that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

     - upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder
       becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at
       least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time
       the transaction commenced, excluding some shares; or

     - on or subsequent to that date, the business combination is approved by
       the corporation's board of directors and authorized at an annual or
       special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least
       66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the
       interested stockholder.

     Except as otherwise specified in Section 203, an "interested stockholder"
is defined to include:

     - any person that is the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting
       stock of the corporation, or is an affiliate or associate of the
       corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting
       stock of the corporation at any time within three years immediately
       before the date of determination; and

     - the affiliates and associates of the stockholder.

     Under some circumstances, Section 203 makes it more difficult for a person
that would be an interested stockholder to effect various business combinations
with a corporation for a three-year period. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
is not expected to elect to be exempt from the restrictions imposed under
Section 203. The provisions of Section 203 may encourage persons interested in
acquiring AT&T Communications Services, Inc. to negotiate in advance with AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors, since the stockholder
approval requirement would be avoided if a majority of the directors then in
office approves either the business combination or the transaction that results
in any person becoming an interested stockholder. These provisions also may have
the effect of preventing changes in AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to
accomplish transactions that AT&T Communications Services, Inc. shareholders may
otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

              COMPARISON OF RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF AT&T COMMON STOCK
              AND AT&T COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. COMMON STOCK
                             FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF

     If you retain your shares of AT&T common stock upon completion of the
spin-off, you will be a holder of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common
stock as well as AT&T common stock. The rights of holders of AT&T common stock
are defined and governed by our charter and by-laws and the NYBCL. The rights of
holders of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock will be defined and
governed by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter and by-laws and the
DGCL.

     We summarize below the material differences between the rights of holders
of AT&T common stock and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock. We do
not intend for this summary to be a complete statement of the rights of holders
of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. common stock or a comprehensive comparison
with the rights of the holders of AT&T common stock, or a complete description
of the specific provisions referred to in this summary. We do not intend that
this identification of specific differences is to indicate that other equally or
more significant differences do not exist. This summary is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the NYBCL, the DGCL, our charter and by-laws and AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s charter and by-laws. For information about how
to obtain copies of documents, see "Other Information -- Where You Can Find More
Information."

CHARTER AMENDMENTS

     Under the NYBCL, proposed charter amendments must be authorized by a
corporation's board of directors and generally must be approved by vote of a
majority of all outstanding shares entitled to vote on the amendment at a
meeting of shareholders. The approval of a majority of the votes of all
outstanding shares of any class of capital stock of a corporation, voting
separately as a class, is required to approve an amendment, whether or not the
shareholders are otherwise entitled to vote on the amendment pursuant to the
corporation's charter, that:

     - would decrease the par value of the shares of the class, change any
       shares of the class into a different number of shares of the same class
       or into the same or a different number of shares of a different class,
       alter or change the designation, relative rights, preferences or
       limitations of the shares of the class or provide new conversion rights
       or the alteration of any existing conversion rights, so as to affect them
       adversely;

     - would exclude or limit the voting rights of the shares of the class,
       except as such rights may be limited by voting rights given to new shares
       then being authorized of any existing or new class or series of shares;
       or

     - would subordinate the rights of the shares of the class by authorizing
       shares having preferences superior to the rights of the existing shares.

     If an amendment would have any of the effects discussed in the last
sentence of the previous paragraph only on one or more series of any class so as
to affect them adversely, but would not affect the remainder of the class, then
only the shares of the series affected by the amendment would be entitled to
vote as a separate class on the amendment.

     Under the DGCL, unless a corporation's charter requires a greater vote, an
amendment requires an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the
outstanding stock entitled to vote on the amendment and a majority of the voting
power of the outstanding stock of any class entitled to vote on the amendment
separately as a class.

     Except as described below, if an amendment would change the aggregate
number of authorized shares of any class of capital stock, the par value of the
shares of any class of capital stock, or alter or change the powers, preferences
or special rights of the shares of any class of capital stock so as to affect
them adversely, the DGCL requires that the amendment be approved by the holders
of a majority of the outstanding shares of the affected class, voting separately
as a class, whether or not

                                       193
   200

the class is entitled to vote on the amendment by the corporation's charter. If
an amendment would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of
one or more series of any class so as to affect them adversely, but would not
affect the remainder of the class, then only the shares of the series so
affected would be entitled to vote as a separate class on the amendment. The
authorized number of shares of any class of stock may be increased or decreased
(but may not be decreased below the number of outstanding shares in the class)
without a separate vote of stockholders of the class if so provided in the
corporation's original charter or in any amendment that created the class of
stock or that was adopted prior to the issuance of any shares of the class, or
in an amendment authorized by a majority vote of the holders of shares of the
class.

BY-LAW AMENDMENTS

     Under the NYBCL, except as otherwise provided in a corporation's charter, a
corporation's by-laws may be amended, repealed or adopted by a majority of the
votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election of any directors. When
provided in a corporation's charter or a corporation's by-law adopted by the
shareholders, by-laws also may be amended, repealed or adopted by the
corporation's board of directors by the vote specified, which vote may be
greater than the vote otherwise prescribed by the NYBCL, but any by-law adopted
by the corporation's board of directors may be amended or repealed by the
shareholders as provided by the NYBCL. Our by-laws may be amended by our
shareholders at any meeting of shareholders, or by our board of directors at any
meeting by a majority vote of our full board of directors or at two successive
meetings by a majority vote of our directors present, provided that a quorum is
present.

     Under the DGCL, the power to adopt, alter and repeal a corporation's
by-laws is vested in the stockholders, except to the extent that the
corporation's charter vests concurrent power in the corporation's board of
directors. AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will vest the power to
make, alter or repeal AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s by-laws with AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

     Generally, under the DGCL, the approval by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the outstanding stock or, if the certificate of
incorporation provides for more or less than one vote per share, a majority of
the votes of the outstanding stock, of a corporation entitled to vote on the
matter is required to complete a merger or consolidation or sale, lease or
exchange of all or substantially all the corporation's assets.

     AT&T Communications Services Inc.'s charter will not contain a provision
related to voting on a merger or consolidation or sale, lease or exchange of all
or substantially all of the corporation's assets.

     Under the NYBCL, a plan of merger or consolidation, a plan of share
exchange or the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of a corporation must be approved:

     - in the case of corporations like AT&T that were in existence on February
       22, 1998 and that do not expressly provide in their certificates of
       incorporation for majority approval of these transactions, by two-thirds
       of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote on the
       transaction; and

     - in the case of all other corporations, by a majority of the votes of all
       outstanding shares entitled to vote on the transaction.

     AT&T is seeking an amendment at its 2001 Annual Meeting to its charter to
provide for majority approval of these types of transactions.

                                       194
   201

     The NYBCL also provides that the holders of shares of a class, or series of
a class, of capital stock of a corporation will be entitled to vote together and
to vote as a separate class on any merger or consolidation in which:

     - the holder's shares will remain outstanding after the merger or
       consolidation or will be converted into the right to receive shares of
       stock of the surviving or consolidated corporation or another
       corporation; and

     - the charter of the surviving or consolidated corporation or other
       corporation immediately after the merger or consolidation is effective:

        (1) will contain any provision that is not contained in the charter of
            the pre-merger corporation; and

        (2) if the provision was contained in an amendment to the pre-merger
            charter, the shareholders would be entitled to vote as a separate
            class under the procedures of the NYBCL for class voting on charter
            amendments discussed under "-- Charter Amendments."

STATE TAKEOVER LEGISLATION

  DELAWARE BUSINESS COMBINATION LAW

     For a description of the Delaware Business Combination Law, see
"Description of Capital Stock of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. Following
the Spin-off -- Delaware Business Combination Statute."

  NEW YORK BUSINESS COMBINATION LAW

     Section 912 of the NYBCL prohibits any "business combination" (defined to
include a variety of transactions, including mergers, sales or dispositions of
assets, issuances of stock, liquidations, reclassifications and benefits from
the corporation, including loans or guarantees) with, involving or proposed by
any "interested shareholder" for a period of five years after the date on which
the interested shareholder became an interested shareholder. "Interested
shareholder" is defined generally as any person who, directly or indirectly,
beneficially owns 20% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a New York
corporation. These restrictions do not apply, however, to any business
combination with an interested shareholder if the business combination, or the
purchase of stock by the interested shareholder that caused the shareholder to
become an interested shareholder, was approved by the board of directors of the
New York corporation prior to the date on which the interested shareholder
became an interested shareholder. After the five-year period, a business
combination between a New York corporation and the interested shareholder is
prohibited unless either the "fair price" provisions set forth in Section 912
are complied with or the business combination is approved by a majority of the
outstanding voting stock not beneficially owned by the interested shareholder or
its affiliates and associates.

     A New York corporation may adopt an amendment to its by-laws, approved by
the affirmative vote of a majority of votes of the outstanding voting stock,
excluding the voting stock of interested shareholders and their affiliates and
associates, expressly electing not to be governed by Section 912. The amendment
will not, however, be effective until 18 months after the shareholder vote and
will not apply to any business combination with a shareholder who was an
interested shareholder on or prior to the effective date of the amendment.
AT&T's by-laws do not contain a provision electing not to be governed by Section
912.

APPRAISAL RIGHTS

     Except as otherwise provided by the NYBCL, shareholders of a New York
corporation whose shares are not listed on a national securities exchange or
designated as a national market system security on an inter-dealer quotation
system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.,

                                       195
   202

or NASD, have the right to dissent and receive payment of the fair value of
their shares, if the corporation:

     - amends or changes its charter in a manner that adversely affects their
       shares;

     - is involved in a merger or consolidation of a specified type; or

     - sells, leases, exchanges or otherwise disposes of all or substantially
       all of its assets or effects an exchange of its shares.

     Under the DGCL, except as otherwise provided by the DGCL, stockholders of a
constituent corporation in a merger or consolidation have the right to demand
and receive payment of the fair value of their stock in a merger or
consolidation. However, except as otherwise provided by the DGCL, stockholders
do not have appraisal rights in a merger or consolidation if, among other
things, their shares are:

     - listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national
       market system security on an inter-dealer quotation system by the NASD;
       or

     - held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders; and

     - in each case, the consideration the stockholders receive for their shares
       in a merger or consolidation consists solely of:

        -- shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from the
           merger or consolidation,

        -- shares of stock of any other corporation that at the effective date
           of the merger or consolidation will be either listed on a national
           securities exchange, or designated as a national market system
           security on an inter-dealer quotation system by the NASD or held of
           record by more than 2,000 stockholders,

        -- cash in lieu of fractional shares of the corporations described in
           the two immediately preceding points, or

        -- any combination of shares of stock and cash in lieu of fractional
           shares described in the three immediately preceding points.

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

     Under the NYBCL, except as otherwise provided in the NYBCL or in a
corporation's charter, holders of equity shares of any corporation incorporated
prior to February 22, 1998, like AT&T, are granted preemptive rights. Our
charter provides that no holder of AT&T common stock has any preemptive rights.

     Under the DGCL, a stockholder does not possess preemptive rights unless
preemptive rights are specifically granted in a corporation's charter. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s charter does not provide for preemptive rights
to shareholders.

REDEMPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

     Under the NYBCL, subject to several limitations, a corporation's charter
may provide for one or more classes or series of shares to be redeemable at the
option of the corporation, the holders of the class or series, other persons or
upon the happening of specified events for cash, other property, debt or other
securities of the same or another corporation, at the time or times, price or
prices, or rate or rates, and with any adjustments, that are stated in the
corporation's charter.

     Under the DGCL, subject to several limitations, a corporation's capital
stock may be made subject to redemption by the corporation at its option, at the
option of its stockholders or otherwise.

DIVIDENDS

     Under the NYBCL, a corporation may declare and pay dividends or make other
distributions, except when it is insolvent or would thereby be made insolvent,
or when the declaration, payment or distribution would be contrary to any
restrictions contained in the corporation's charter. Except as

                                       196
   203

otherwise provided in the NYBCL, dividends may be declared and paid and other
distributions may only be made out of surplus, so that the net assets of the
corporation remaining after the declaration, payment or distribution must at
least equal the amount of its stated capital. A corporation may declare and pay
dividends or make other distributions, except when it is insolvent or would
thereby be made insolvent, or when the declaration, payment or distribution
would be contrary to any restrictions contained in the corporation's charter.

     Under the DGCL, a corporation's board of directors may authorize the
corporation to declare and pay dividends and other distributions to its
stockholders, subject to any restrictions contained in the corporation's
charter, either out of surplus, or, if there is no surplus, out of net profits
for the current or preceding fiscal year in which the dividend is declared.
However, a distribution out of net profits is not permitted if a corporation's
capital is less than the amount of capital represented by the issued and
outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of
assets, until the deficiency has been repaired.

SHAREHOLDER ACTION

     The NYBCL provides that shareholder action may be taken without a meeting
of shareholders upon the written consent of the holders of all outstanding
shares entitled to vote, and also allows, if a corporation's charter permits,
shareholder action without a meeting of shareholders upon the written consent of
holders of outstanding shares having at least the minimum number of votes that
would be necessary to authorize the action at a meeting of shareholders at which
all shares entitled to vote upon the action were present and voted. Our charter
does not contain this type of a provision.

     Under the DGCL, unless otherwise provided in a corporation's charter, any
action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of stockholders may be
taken without a meeting of stockholders, without prior notice and without a
vote, if a written consent setting forth the action taken is signed by the
holders of outstanding stock having at least the minimum number of votes that
would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting of shareholders
at which all shares entitled to vote upon the action were present and voted.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will provide that no action
required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of shareholders may be taken
without a meeting of shareholders, and the power of shareholders to consent in
writing without a meeting of shareholders is specifically denied.

SHAREHOLDER BUSINESS AND NOMINATIONS

     Our by-laws require that, for a shareholder to properly bring business
before or nominate directors at an annual meeting of shareholders, the
shareholder generally must have delivered written notice to us containing the
information specified in our by-laws not less than 90 and no more than 120 days
prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting of
shareholders. This requirement is in addition to the requirements that a
shareholder must meet to have a shareholder proposal included in our proxy
statement under SEC Rule 14a-8.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s by-laws will contain comparable
procedures for shareholder nominations of directors and shareholder proposals.

SPECIAL MEETINGS

     The NYBCL provides that, if, for a period of one month after the date fixed
by or under a corporation's by-laws for the annual meeting of shareholders or,
if no date has been so fixed, for a period of 13 months after the last annual
meeting of shareholders, there is a failure to elect a sufficient number of
directors to conduct the corporation's business, the corporation's board of
directors must call a special meeting of shareholders for the election of
directors. If the corporation's board of directors does not call a special
meeting of shareholders within two weeks after the expiration of the 13-month
period or if it is called but directors are not elected for a period of two
months after the expiration of the 13-month period, holders of 10% of the votes
of the shares entitled to vote in an election of directors may, in writing,
demand the call of a special meeting of

                                       197
   204

shareholders for the election of directors. The NYBCL provides that a
corporation's board of directors or any person authorized by a corporation's
charter or by-laws may call a special meeting of shareholders.

     Our by-laws provide that only our Chairman or our board of directors may
call a special meeting of shareholders.

     The DGCL provides that a special meeting of stockholders may be called by
the corporation's board of directors or by any person or persons as may be
authorized by a corporation's charter or by-laws. AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s by-laws will provide that special meetings of shareholders may be called
only by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors.

CUMULATIVE VOTING

     Under the NYBCL, a corporation's charter may provide that in all elections
of directors each shareholder is entitled to cumulative voting. AT&T's charter
does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

     Under the DGCL, a corporation's charter may provide that at all elections
of directors, or at elections held under specified circumstances, each
stockholder is entitled to cumulative voting. AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s charter will not contain a provision relating to cumulative voting.

SIZE OF THE BOARD; STAGGERED BOARD

     Subject to several limitations, the NYBCL permits the number of directors
of a corporation to be fixed by the corporation's by-laws, by action of the
shareholders or by action of the corporation's board of directors under the
specific provision of a by-law adopted by the shareholders. The number of
directors may be increased or decreased, subject to several limitations set
forth in the NYBCL. At each annual meeting of shareholders, directors are to be
elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, except as
described below for corporations with staggered boards. The NYBCL also permits a
corporation's charter, or the specific provisions of a by-law adopted by the
shareholders, to provide that directors be divided into either two, three or
four classes. All classes must be as nearly equal in number as possible. The
term of office of one class of directors shall expire each year, with the terms
of office of no two classes expiring the same year. Recent amendments to the
NYBCL delete the requirement of at least three directors in any class. Our
charter provides that the number of directors shall be as provided for in our
by-laws. Our by-laws provide that the number of directors shall be not less than
10 and no more than 25, the exact number of directors to be fixed and determined
by the vote of a majority of our entire board of directors. We do not have a
classified board of directors.

     The DGCL permits a corporation's charter or by-laws to contain provisions
governing the number and terms of directors. However, if the corporation's
charter contains provisions fixing the number of directors, the number may not
be changed without amending the corporation's charter. The DGCL also permits a
corporation's charter or a by-law adopted by the stockholders to provide that
directors be divided into one, two or three classes, with the term of office of
one class of directors to expire each year. The DGCL further permits a
corporation's charter to confer upon holders of any class or series of stock the
right to elect one or more directors to serve for the terms and have the voting
powers contained in the corporation's charter. The terms of office and voting
powers of directors so elected may be greater or less than those of any other
director or class of directors.

REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS

     The NYBCL provides that any or all of a corporation's directors may be
removed for cause by a vote of its shareholders, and, if the corporation's
charter or the specific provisions of a by-law adopted by its shareholders
provides, a director may be removed for cause by action of the corporation's
board of directors. An action to procure a judgment removing a director for
cause may be brought by the Attorney General of the State of New York or by the
holders of 10% of the outstanding shares,

                                       198
   205

whether or not entitled to vote. If the corporation's charter or by-laws
provide, any or all of the directors may be removed without cause by vote of the
corporation's shareholders.

     The removal of directors, with or without cause, is subject to the
following:

     - in the case of a corporation having cumulative voting, no director may be
       removed when the votes cast against the director's removal would be
       sufficient to elect the director if voted cumulatively; and

     - if a director is elected by the holders of shares of any class or series,
       that director may be removed only by the applicable vote of the holders
       of the shares of that class or series voting as a class.

Neither our charter nor our by-laws provide that our directors may be removed
without cause by our common shareholders or by our board of directors.

     The DGCL provides that directors may be removed with or without cause by
the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares then entitled to vote at
an election of directors, except that:

     - members of a classified board of directors may be removed only for cause,
       unless the corporation's charter provides otherwise; and

     - in the case of a corporation having cumulative voting, if less than the
       entire board of directors is to be removed, no director may be removed
       without cause if the votes cast against the director's removal would be
       sufficient to elect the director if then cumulatively voted at an
       election of the entire board of directors or of the class of directors of
       which the director is a part.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will provide that, subject to
the rights of any class or series of preferred stock having the right under a
preferred stock designation to elect directors under specified circumstances,
any director may be removed from office only for cause by the affirmative vote
of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all voting stock
then outstanding, voting together as a single class.

VACANCIES

     Under the NYBCL, newly created directorships resulting from an increase in
the number of directors and vacancies occurring on a corporation's board of
directors for any reason, except the removal of directors without cause, may be
filled by vote of the corporation's board of directors. Unless a corporation's
charter or by-laws provide otherwise, a vacancy in a directorship elected by
holders of a particular class of shares shall be filled by the vote of the other
directors elected by holders of the same class of shares. However, a
corporation's charter or by-laws may provide that these newly created
directorships or vacancies are to be filled by vote of the shareholders. Unless
a corporation's charter or the specific provisions of a by-law adopted by the
shareholders provide that the corporation's board of directors may fill
vacancies occurring on the corporation's board of directors by reason of the
removal of directors without cause, these vacancies may be filled only by vote
of the shareholders. A director elected to fill a vacancy, unless elected by the
shareholders, will hold office until the next meeting of shareholders at which
the election of directors is in the regular order of business and until his or
her successor has been elected and qualified. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
unless otherwise provided in a corporation's charter or by-laws, whenever the
holders of one or more classes or series of shares are entitled to elect one or
more directors by the corporation's charter, any vacancy that may be filled by
the corporation's board of directors or a majority of the directors then in
office shall be filled by a majority of the directors then in office that were
elected by such class or series. Our by-laws provide that any vacancy on our
board of directors may be filled by a majority vote of the remaining directors,
though less than a quorum.

     Under the DGCL, unless otherwise provided in a corporation's charter or
by-laws, vacancies on a corporation's board of directors and newly created
directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors
may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although

                                       199
   206

less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director. However, in the case of a
classified board of directors, vacancies and newly created directorships may be
filled by a majority of the directors elected by the class or by the sole
remaining director so elected. Directors elected to fill vacancies or newly
created directorships on a classified board of directors hold office until the
next election of the class for which the directors have been chosen, and until
their successors have been duly elected and qualified. In addition, if, at the
time any vacancy or newly created directorship is filled, the directors in
office constitute less than a majority of the whole board of directors (as
constituted immediately prior to any increase), the Delaware Court of Chancery
may, upon application of any stockholder or stockholders holding at least 10% of
the total number of outstanding shares entitled to vote for the directors,
summarily order an election to fill any such vacancy or newly created
directorship, or replace the directors chosen by the directors then in office.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s by-laws will provide that any
vacancies on AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s board of directors, including
a vacancy created by an increase in the number of directors, may be filled for
the unexpired term by a majority vote of the remaining directors, though less
than a quorum.

INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

     Under the NYBCL, a corporation may indemnify its directors and officers
that are made, or are threatened to be made, a party to any action or
proceeding, except for shareholder derivative suits, against judgments, fines,
amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses incurred as a result of the
action or proceeding if the director or officer acted in good faith, for a
purpose that he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the
corporation or, in the case of service to another corporation or enterprise, not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation. In criminal proceedings, in
addition to the preceding conditions, the director or officer must not have had
reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In the case of
shareholder derivative suits, the corporation may indemnify a director or
officer if he or she acted in good faith for a purpose that he or she reasonably
believed to be in or, in the case of service to another corporation or
enterprise, not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that,
in either case, no indemnification may be made in respect of:

     - a threatened action, or an action that is settled or otherwise disposed
       of; or

     - any claim, issue or matter as to which the individual has been adjudged
       to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the
       court in which the action was brought, or, if no action was brought, any
       court of competent jurisdiction, determines, upon application, that, in
       view of all the circumstances of the case, the individual is fairly and
       reasonably entitled to indemnity for that portion of the settlement
       amount and expenses as the court deems proper.

     Any individual who has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the
defense of a civil or criminal action or proceeding will be entitled to
indemnification. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, unless ordered by
a court pursuant to the NYBCL, any indemnification under the NYBCL pursuant to
the above paragraph may be made only if authorized in the specific case and
after a finding that the director or officer met the applicable standard of
conduct by the disinterested directors if a quorum is available, or if the
quorum so directs or is unavailable, by a corporation's board of directors upon
the written opinion of independent legal counsel, or the shareholders.

     A corporation may advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in
defending any action or proceeding prior to its final disposition upon receipt
of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay the
advance to the extent the advance exceeds the indemnification to which the
officer or director is entitled.

                                       200
   207

     The indemnification described above under the NYBCL is not exclusive of
other indemnification rights to which a director or officer may be entitled,
whether contained in a corporation's charter or by-laws, or, when authorized by
a corporation's charter or by-laws contained in:

     - a resolution of shareholders,

     - a resolution of directors, or

     - an agreement providing for indemnification;

provided that indemnification may not be made to or on behalf of any director or
officer if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or
officer establishes that his or her acts were committed in bad faith or were the
result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of
action so adjudicated, or that he or she personally gained in fact a financial
profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled.

     Our by-laws provide that we are authorized, to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, to provide indemnification and to advance expenses to our
directors and officers by resolution of shareholders or directors or by an
agreement providing for indemnification, in each case, for claims, actions,
suits or proceedings based on, arising from, relating to or by reason of the
fact that any director or officer serves or served in such capacity with AT&T,
or at our request, in any capacity with any other enterprise.

     We have entered into indemnification agreements with some of our officers
and directors in accordance with our by-laws.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling AT&T under the
foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC,
this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.

     The DGCL generally permits a corporation to indemnify its directors and
officers against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred in connection with a third-party action, other
than a derivative action, and against expenses actually and reasonably incurred
in the defense or settlement of a derivative action, provided that there is a
determination that the individual acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. The
determination must be made, in the case of an individual who is a director or
officer at the time of determination, by:

     - a majority of the directors who are not parties to the action, suit or
       proceeding, even though less than a quorum;

     - a committee of directors who are not parties to the action, suit or
       proceeding, designated by a majority vote of these directors who are not
       parties to the action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a
       quorum;

     - independent legal counsel, in a written opinion; or

     - a majority vote of the stockholders, at a meeting of stockholders at
       which a quorum is present.

     Without court approval, however, an individual may not be indemnified in
any claim, issue or matter in a derivative action as to which the individual is
adjudged liable to the corporation. The DGCL requires indemnification of
directors and officers for expenses relating to a successful defense on the
merits or otherwise of a derivative or third-party action. The DGCL permits a
corporation to advance expenses incurred in the defense of any proceeding to
directors and officers contingent upon an undertaking by or on behalf of the
individuals to repay any advances if it is determined ultimately that the
individuals are not entitled to be indemnified. Under the DGCL, the rights to
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided in the law are
nonexclusive, in that, subject to public policy issues, indemnification and
advancement of expenses beyond that provided by statute may be provided by law,
agreement, or vote of stockholders, disinterested directors or otherwise.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter and by-laws will provide that
its officers and directors (and the heirs, executors and administrators of these
officers and directors) will be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by
Delaware law.

LIMITATION OF PERSONAL LIABILITY OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

     The NYBCL provides that a corporation's charter may contain a provision
eliminating or limiting a director's personal liability to the corporation or
its shareholders for damages for any breach of duty in his or her capacity as a
director. However, a corporation's charter may not contain a provision that
eliminates or limits a director's liability:

     - if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director
       establishes that the director's acts or omissions were in bad faith or
       involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, that the
       director personally gained, in fact, a financial profit or other
       advantage to which the director was not legally entitled, or that the
       director's acts violated certain provisions of the NYBCL; or

     - for any act or omission that occurred before the provision limiting
       director liability was adopted.

     Our charter provides that directors will not be personally liable to AT&T
or any of our shareholders for damages for any breach of duty as a director.
However, a director's liability will not be eliminated or limited:

     - if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to him or her
       establishes that his or her acts or omissions were in bad faith or
       involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, that he or
       she personally gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to
       which he or she was not legally entitled, or that his or her acts
       violated Section 719 of the NYBCL (which includes declaration of
       dividends, purchase of capital stock, distribution of assets to
       shareholders after dissolution of the corporation and loans to directors
       to the extent contrary to New York law); or

     - for any act or omission that occurred before the provision limiting
       director liability was adopted by our shareholders.

     The DGCL provides that a corporation's charter may include a provision
limiting a director's personal liability to the corporation or its stockholders
for monetary damages for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director.
However, the charter may not contain a provision that eliminates or limits a
director's liability for:

     - any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
       stockholders;

     - acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
       misconduct or a knowing violation of the law;

     - violation of certain provisions of the DGCL;

     - any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
       benefit; or

     - any act or omission that occurred before the provision limiting director
       liability was adopted.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s charter will provide that, subject to
the limitations in the preceding paragraph, no director will be personally
liable to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. or its shareholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director for any act or omission.

                      BOARD COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
                           ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

     The Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee is composed of six
independent non-employee directors. The Compensation and Employee Benefits
Committee is responsible for setting and administering executive officer
salaries, the annual bonus, and long-term incentive plans that govern the
compensation paid to all senior managers of AT&T, except that our board of
directors (other than directors who are employees) is responsible for setting
and administering salaries and the annual bonus of the Chief Executive Officer
and the four other most highly compensated executive officers of AT&T, or the
Named Officers, named in the Summary Compensation Table included under "AT&T
Executive Compensation" based on recommendations of the Compensation and
Employee Benefits Committee. The Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee
held six meetings during 2000, including both regularly scheduled and special
meetings.

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES

     AT&T operates in extremely competitive and rapidly changing industries.
AT&T believes that its executive compensation programs should be designed to
attract and retain executives who possess the high-quality skills and talents
necessary to advance or transform the business. AT&T's compensation philosophy
seeks to provide a strong link between an executive's total earnings opportunity
and the short-term and long-term performance of AT&T based on the achievement of
predetermined financial targets, operational goals, service quality, and
customer satisfaction relative to AT&T's competitors as well as an individual's
contributions.

COMPENSATION COMPONENTS AND PRACTICES

     AT&T's executive compensation program consists of three key components: (1)
base salary; (2) short-term incentives, i.e., annual bonus; and (3) long-term
incentives, i.e., performance shares, stock options, and restricted stock/units.
The Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee relies on independent
compensation consultants, published compensation studies, and public company
proxy data to compare executive compensation to market data of similarly sized
companies in the telecommunications industry, as well as other industries in
which AT&T competes for products, services, and talent to develop a competitive
compensation program. The policies and the basis for determining executive
compensation and specifically that AT&T's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,
Mr. Armstrong, are described below:

     1. BASE SALARY

     The Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee establishes the salary
ranges for each of the executive officer positions based upon the job
responsibilities and scope, level of expertise and experience required,
strategic impact of the position, overall business performance, and individual
contributions, as well as competitive compensation of similarly positioned
executives in comparable companies. Surveys conducted by external compensation
consultants provide the market data utilized by the Compensation and Employee
Benefits Committee annually as part of the determination of the executive
compensation structure. Annual salary adjustments recognize sustained individual
performance by the executive, with overall salary increase funding levels
sensitive to both market movement and AT&T performance.

     The Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee presents the salary
recommendations for the Named Officers to the non-employee directors for
approval. These salary recommendations are based on the executive's contribution
to AT&T, experience, expertise and relative position against competitive market
rates. No individual performance matrices or pre-established weightings are
given to each factor.

                                       211
   218

     2. ANNUAL INCENTIVES

     The annual bonus for AT&T's Chairman and for the other Named Officers is
(1) 0.4% of AT&T's net cash provided by operating activities for the annual
performance period, divided by the total number of Named Officers with respect
to such period, or (2) a lesser amount based on factors including AT&T's
performance relative to pre-set financial, employee, customer, and individual
performance targets applicable to bonuses set for other executive officers.

     The annual bonus for other executive officers is based on AT&T's financial
and key non-financial results as measured against pre-set targets for revenue
growth, earnings as measured by operational net income, and other qualitative
measures in areas such as customer and employee satisfaction. Targets for these
measures were reviewed and approved by the Compensation and Employee Benefits
Committee.

     3. LONG-TERM INCENTIVES

     Long-term incentives, including stock options, long-term performance
incentive awards and restricted stock or restricted stock units provide a
mechanism to reward executive officers for maximizing long-term shareholder
value. Grants of stock options and performance shares are made annually under
the 1997 incentive plan. The size of these annual grants is based on competitive
market grant levels for similar positions. The size of previous grants and the
number of shares held by an executive generally are not considered in
determining annual award levels. Stock option awards and performance share
awards are based on creating incremental shareholder value or on the attainment
of cumulative, three-year financial targets. Grants of restricted stock or
restricted stock units are made on a selective basis for purposes of retention
or reward for outstanding performance. In total, these awards represent a
significant portion of the total compensation opportunity provided to executive
officers.

     Stock ownership guidelines were established in 1998 for executives to more
closely align their interests with those of our shareholders. The guidelines
provide that, within a five-year time period, executives should attain an
investment interest in AT&T stock or stock units of one to five times their base
salary, depending upon the executive's position and scope of responsibilities.

     Performance Shares.  Performance shares, which are units equivalent in
value to shares of AT&T common stock, are awarded annually based on surveys of
competitive market grant levels for similar positions. The value of the payout
to each executive for the performance period is (1) 0.13% of AT&T's net cash
provided by operating activities for each year in the performance period,
divided by the total number of Named Officers receiving such payouts, or (2) a
lesser amount, based on factors that include targets for AT&T's earnings and
revenue established for performance shares for the three-year performance
period.

     AT&T's performance share program was tied to three-year relative total
shareholder return as measured against a peer group of industry competitors.
Total shareholder return equals the sum of the appreciation in the price of AT&T
common stock plus dividends paid over the period. Because of the continuing
consolidation in the industry and among the peer group companies, and AT&T's
continuing transformation into an all-distance company, as well as the ongoing
difficulty of setting viable long-term financial targets for measurement
purposes, the Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee approved, in 2000, a
parallel set of measures to be used for all outstanding performance share cycles
(1998-2000, 1999-2001, and 2000-2002). The additional measurements for the
performance share program are tied to a combination of three-year cumulative
Earnings Per Share, or EPS, and revenue results against pre-established targets
and relative total shareholder return, as measured against the S&P 500 peer
group companies. Depending on the level of performance against the three-year
goals, performance share payouts can range between 0% and 200% of the target
award. No more than 100% of the target can be awarded and paid out based on

                                       212
   219

achievement of AT&T's EPS and revenue measures. Award payouts in excess of 100%
but no greater than 200% of target can only be attained if AT&T's total
shareholder return ranks above the 75th percentile when measured against the
peer group. The performance shares are valued based on the market price of AT&T
common stock at the end of the performance period. In addition to the extra
measures, the Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee approved calculating
the performance shares based on the greater performance results of either set of
measures. Based on AT&T's performance for the period covering 1997-1999, payable
in 2000, no performance shares were earned by the executive officers as reported
in the Summary Compensation Table included under "AT&T Executive Compensation."

     Stock Options.  Stock options are granted annually to executive officers
based on surveys of competitive grant levels for similar positions. Like
performance shares, the magnitude of the stock option awards is determined
annually by the Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee. Stock options are
granted with an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of
AT&T common stock on the day of grant, and become exercisable after the
expiration of a period of time, typically between one and four years, and
continue to be exercisable until ten years from the date granted. These stock
options provide incentive for the creation of shareholder value over the long
term since the full benefit of the compensation package cannot be realized
unless AT&T common stock appreciates during the term of the option.

     In 2000, AT&T completed the largest initial public offering to date and
created AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, trading under the symbol "AWE" on
the New York Stock Exchange. In order to balance executive interests
appropriately and to reward key executives for contributing to the success of
AT&T Wireless Group, stock options in AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock were
granted to the Named Officers and other key executives of AT&T.

     Restricted Stock.  Restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards are
granted from time to time to executive officers, primarily for purposes of
retention. Restricted stock is subject to forfeiture and may not be disposed of
by the recipient until certain restrictions established by the Compensation and
Employee Benefits Committee lapse. Recipients of restricted stock are not
required to provide consideration other than the rendering of services or the
payment of any minimum amount required by law.

COMPENSATION FOR AT&T'S CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

     During 2000, AT&T's most highly compensated officer was C. Michael
Armstrong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Armstrong's 2000
performance was reviewed by the Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee,
discussed by the non-employee directors, and reviewed with our board of
directors. The Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee's recommendations to
our board of directors concerning the annual cash component (base salary and
annual bonus) of Mr. Armstrong's compensation and our board of directors'
approval of the annual component and his long-term component (performance shares
and stock options) were based on the considerations discussed below.

     BASE SALARY

     Mr. Armstrong's base salary was established at the time of his hire based
on competitive market rates for a chief executive with his experience and record
of accomplishment and, prior to 2000, had not been increased since his date of
hire. As specified in Mr. Armstrong's employment agreement, the Compensation and
Employee Benefits Committee reviews Mr. Armstrong's salary annually in
comparison with the salaries of chief executive officers of other Fortune 20
companies, industry competitors, and selected other large market capitalized
companies during its annual compensation survey and review process. Effective
March 1, 2000, Mr. Armstrong's salary was increased to $1.8

                                       213
   220

million from $1.4 million based on the recommendation to our board of directors
by the Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee. The Compensation and
Employee Benefits Committee's recommendation was driven by several important
considerations such as the overall complexity involved in transforming AT&T to
an any-distance company, unprecedented competition in the marketplace, and the
leadership provided by Mr. Armstrong since joining AT&T.

     ANNUAL BONUS

     After determining the maximum award payable to Mr. Armstrong based on
AT&T's net cash provided by operating activities, the Compensation and Employee
Benefits Committee exercised its discretion in determining the actual bonus
payable based on achievement of pre-set performance targets related to revenue
growth and earnings, as well as performance goals for service quality, customer
satisfaction, and operational measures. Based on AT&T's failure to achieve
certain targeted performance against financial measures described above, and the
level of achievement on certain qualitative objectives, our board of directors
authorized a total annual bonus for Mr. Armstrong of $650,000, or 25% of his
target annual bonus. In a year that included the challenge of integrating
several major strategic acquisitions, the establishment of a joint venture with
BT, and the launch of the largest initial public offering in corporate history
with the creation of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, Mr. Armstrong continued
to demonstrate his vision and leadership at a time of unprecedented turmoil in
the telecommunications industry. Despite disappointing financial performance in
2000, Mr. Armstrong's leadership is critical as AT&T continues to transform
itself as a communications leader.

     LONG-TERM INCENTIVES

     In January 2000, our board of directors granted Mr. Armstrong an option on
419,200 shares of AT&T common stock, which becomes exercisable in 2001, 2002,
2003, and 2004. In order for Mr. Armstrong to realize the value indicated in the
Option/SAR Grants in 2000 table under "AT&T Executive Compensation," the AT&T
common stock price would produce a corresponding aggregate pre-tax gain of more
than $145 billion for AT&T's shareholders when compared to the closing price on
March 1, 2001. The Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee also granted Mr.
Armstrong 59,300 performance shares for the 2000-2002 cycle.

     In recognition of the incremental responsibilities associated with AT&T
Wireless Group, our board of directors granted (in April 2000) an option on
1,237,400 shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock which becomes exercisable
in 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003. These special grants represented the projected
value of target stock option awards in AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock for
2000 and the next two performance years were awarded as an additional incentive
to ensure the success of the AT&T Wireless Group initial public offering and to
obtain a more even balance between the AT&T common stock and AT&T Wireless Group
tracking stock in Mr. Armstrong's long-term incentive portfolio.

                                       214
   221

     Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public
companies, such as AT&T, for compensation in excess of $1 million paid to a
corporation's chief executive officer and its four other most highly compensated
executive officers. Section 162(m) provides that qualifying performance-based
compensation will not be subject to the deduction limit if certain requirements
are met. Elements of compensation under the annual bonus and long-term incentive
plans qualify for exemption from the annual limit on tax deductibility under
Section 162(m) of the Code. In addition, AT&T has a salary and incentive award
deferral plan that permits compensation deferred under the plan to be exempt
from the limit on tax deductibility.

   1999 to Messrs. Somers, and Ianna, of stock units as to which three-year

   accommodation expenses, commutation, interest and COBRA payments to Mr. Noski

   policy insuring Mr. Armstrong and his spouse, as specified in his employment
   agreement, which is described under "-- Employment Contracts and Termination
   of Employment Arrangements." Interest was accrued on the $2,050,000 base
   amount from Mr. Armstrong's hire date of October 17, 1997 through November 6,
   1998, the date of the premium payment, at the interest rate in effect for the

(1) Includes AT&T's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the four other most
    highly compensated individuals who were executive officers of AT&T at the
    end of 2000, as measured by salary and bonus.

(2) A portion of the outstanding AT&T stock options for Mr. Zeglis were
    converted in connection with AT&T's restructuring into a combination of
    adjusted AT&T options and SARs exercisable with respect to shares of Lucent
    Technologies Inc. and/or NCR Corporation. This balancing of risk and
    opportunity among the three companies mirrored the impact that the
    restructuring had on AT&T shareholders. The conversion was awarded to Mr.
    Zeglis by virtue of his membership on the Transition Steering Committee, the
    charter of which was to ensure the creation of three healthy independent
    companies as a result of the restructuring. Consistent with accounting
    principles governing such conversion, the adjusted options and SARs retain
    the same term and vesting provision as the original options.

(3) For Mr. Zeglis, includes exercises in 2000 of Lucent SARs.

(1) Includes AT&T's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the four other most
    highly compensated individuals who were executive officers of AT&T at the
    end of 2000, as measured by salary and bonus.

(2) Options granted for AT&T common stock become exercisable to the extent of
    one-fourth of the grant on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries
    of the grant date, respectively.

(3) On January 31, 2000, Messrs. Somers and Ianna were awarded a special stock
    option grant, exercisable for AT&T common stock of 81,000 and 98,000 shares,
    respectively. These grants vest 50% of the shares on the first and second
    anniversary dates of the grant.

(4) The Black-Scholes option pricing model was chosen to estimate the Grant Date
    Present Value of the options set forth in this table. AT&T's use of this
    model should not be construed as an endorsement of its accuracy of valuing
    options. All stock option valuation models, including the Black-Scholes
    model, require a prediction about the future movement of the stock price.
    The following assumptions were made for purposes of calculating the Grant
    Date Present Value on the grants awarded on January 31, 2000: an option term
    of 4 years, volatility of 31.00%, dividend yield at 1.70%, and interest rate
    of 6.67%. The following assumptions were made for purposes of calculating
    the Grant Date Present Value on the grants awarded on February 28, 2000: an
    option term of 5 years, volatility of 31.00%, dividend yield at 1.70%, and
    interest rate of 6.71%. The real value of the options in this table depends
    upon the actual performance of AT&T common stock during the applicable
    period.

(2) Options granted for AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock become exercisable to
    the extent of 25% of the grant on the six-month anniversary of the grant
    date and 6.25% on each quarter thereafter.

(3) On April 27, 2000, Messrs. Armstrong, Zeglis, Somers, Noski and Ianna were
    awarded a special stock option grant, exercisable for AT&T Wireless Group
    tracking stock of 1,084,800; 900,000; 203,400; 207,700; and 189,000 shares

    model should not be construed as an endorsement of its accuracy of valuing
    options. All stock option valuation models, including the Black-Scholes
    model, require a prediction about the future movement of the stock price.

    options in this table depends upon the actual performance of AT&T common
    stock during the applicable period.

    0.13% of AT&T's net cash provided by operating activities for each year in
    the performance period, divided by the total number of Named Officers
    receiving payouts for the period ending December 31, 2002, or (ii) a lesser
    amount, based on factors such as targets for AT&T's earnings, return to
    equity, cash flow, and total shareholder return for the period.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT ARRANGEMENTS

     AT&T entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Armstrong dated October
17, 1997. The agreement provided for an initial base salary of $1,400,000 per
year. It also provided for a guaranteed annual incentive award for the 1998
performance year of no less than 100% of his then base salary, and for 1998 and
1999 performance shares/stock units granted under the 1997 incentive plan, a
guaranteed grant value equivalent to no less than 100% of his base salary at the
time of grant. Mr. Armstrong was eligible for annual stock option awards
commencing in 1998 in accordance with the Compensation and Employee Benefits
Committee-approved compensation structure for such years.

     To address certain forfeitures experienced when Mr. Armstrong left his
previous employer, AT&T paid a premium of $2,050,000 to purchase a split-dollar
survivorship insurance policy insuring Mr. Armstrong and his spouse. Such policy
will, upon the death of the last surviving insured, provide insurance proceeds
equal to the sum of the face amount of the policy and the policy's cash value.
An amount equal to the policy face amount shall be payable to Mr. Armstrong's
beneficiaries or to a trust which may be established to own Mr. Armstrong's
interest in such policy. The balance of the proceeds will be paid to AT&T, and,
from its share of the death benefit, AT&T will pay an AT&T-paid death benefit to
Mr. Armstrong's beneficiaries equal to the death benefit received by AT&T, minus
the AT&T-paid premium. The face amount of such split-dollar survivorship
insurance policy will be determined in accordance with the underwriting
requirements of the insurance company providing such coverage based on AT&T's
premium payment of $2,050,000 and additional premium payments, if any, that Mr.
Armstrong may become eligible for under any similar program adopted by AT&T for
its senior executives and in which Mr. Armstrong elects to participate.

     In accordance with his employment agreement, Mr. Armstrong also was granted
AT&T restricted stock, AT&T restricted stock units, and AT&T stock options under
the 1997 incentive plan to replace similar grants forfeited from his prior
employer and to provide strong incentives to create shareholder value for AT&T
shareholders.

                                       221
   228

     Details of these grants follow:

          1. Mr. Armstrong was granted 157,995 shares of AT&T restricted stock,
     of which 86,288 shares vested in 1998 and 1999. The remaining 71,707 shares
     vest as follows: 27,441 shares on January 1, 2000; 16,415 shares on May 1,
     2000; 12,423 shares on October 17, 2000; 3,007 shares on May 1, 2001; and
     12,421 shares on October 17, 2001.

          2. Mr. Armstrong also was granted 336,841 AT&T restricted stock units,
     which vest on October 1, 2003, assuming continued employment, with a
     guarantee that, in the event the fair market value of the AT&T shares
     furnished to Mr. Armstrong on October 1, 2003 is less than $10,000,000,
     such shortfall will be made up in cash by AT&T. In the event of (a) a
     Change in Control (as defined) on or before April 1, 2002 and a subsequent
     (within 3 years) AT&T-initiated termination for other than "cause" (as
     defined) or Constructive Termination Without Cause (as defined) or (b) Mr.
     Armstrong's death, special vesting rules apply.

          3. Mr. Armstrong was granted an option to purchase, within ten years,
     1,125,000 shares of AT&T common stock, with a purchase price of $29.6876
     per share. These options vest one-third each on October 17, 2000, 2001, and
     2002, based on continued employment.

     As part of his employment agreement, AT&T entered into a supplemental
pension arrangement with Mr. Armstrong. Pursuant to such arrangement, Mr.
Armstrong will receive an annual benefit (as defined in the employment
agreement) commencing at his retirement at or after age 65. Such benefit will
vest 20% per year on each of the first five anniversaries of his hire, and will
be payable in actuarially-reduced amounts for retirement and commencement prior
to age 65. Pension benefits payable under this arrangement will be paid out of
AT&T's operating income, and will be offset by (1) all amounts actually received
by Mr. Armstrong under any other AT&T qualified or non-qualified retirement plan
or arrangement, and (2) the greater of (a) $655,642 or (b) the actual pension
benefits to be paid to Mr. Armstrong with respect to that year by his prior
employers under their qualified and non-qualified defined benefit plans. In
addition, Mr. Armstrong will be entitled to certain other post-retirement
benefits that generally are made available from time to time to retired
executive officers and service-pension-eligible senior managers.

     Mr. Armstrong's agreement provides for certain entitlements in the event of
his termination from AT&T under specified circumstances. Pursuant to his
agreement, in the event of Mr. Armstrong's death, his beneficiaries or estate
will be entitled to his base salary through the end of his month of death, his
target annual incentive award for the year of death, a lump-sum payout at target
for each open long-term incentive program performance cycle, and payment of
survivor benefits under his supplemental pension arrangement which vests 100% at
his death. All outstanding unvested stock options will vest and together with
already vested options will be exercisable for the remainder of the original
term of each grant; restrictions on the restricted stock granted as part of his
agreement will lapse; restricted stock units granted in his agreement will be
payable in accordance with the schedule established in his Restricted Stock Unit
Award Agreement (20% to 100% of units granted will be payable, depending on the
date of death) in the event of his death prior to the vesting of such restricted
stock units on October 1, 2003.

     Mr. Armstrong's agreement also provides that in the event his employment is
terminated as a result of disability (as defined), he shall be entitled to
receive disability benefits in accordance with the long-term disability program
then in effect for senior managers. In addition, base salary, annual incentive,
stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units shall be treated in
the same manner as described above in the case of death. Treatment of long-term
incentives will be as described above in the case of death, provided, however,
payment will be in accordance with the terms of the plan instead of a lump sum.
Pension benefits under his supplemental pension arrangement will vest and will
be offset by any AT&T-provided disability benefits.

                                       222
   229

     In the event of a termination for "cause" (as defined) or in the event of a
voluntary resignation, other than a termination due to death or disability or a
Constructive Termination (as defined) without "cause" or retirement on October
31, 2003, Mr. Armstrong will forfeit all restricted stock and restricted stock
units as to which restrictions have not lapsed, long-term incentives with
respect to uncompleted performance cycles, outstanding stock options which are
not exercisable, and any pension benefit not yet vested under his supplemental
pension arrangement. He will receive base salary through his date of
termination, and vested stock options shall remain exercisable for 90 days after
termination or until the originally scheduled expiration date, if earlier.

     In the event of an AT&T-initiated termination for other than "cause" or in
the event of a Constructive Termination without "cause," neither of which follow
within three years of a Change in Control (as defined), Mr. Armstrong will be
provided the following: base salary through the date of termination, a prorated
annual incentive award at target for the year of termination, a 24-month
continuation of monthly base salary, or at his option, the lump-sum present
value of such payments (using the short-term Treasury bill rate for the month of
termination); two times the target annual incentive award for the year of
termination payable over 24 months, or at his option, the lump-sum present value
of such payments (using the short-term Treasury bill rate for the month of
termination); and payout at target for each open long-term incentive program
performance cycle in accordance with the plan or in a lump sum as described
above. In addition, all outstanding unvested stock options will vest and
together with already vested options will be exercisable for the remainder of
the original term of each grant; restrictions on the restricted stock granted as
part of his agreement will lapse; and his supplemental pension benefit shall
fully vest. For a period of 24 months following his termination, or, if earlier,
until he receives equivalent coverage and benefits from another employer, Mr.
Armstrong will be entitled to continued participation in AT&T's benefit plans
and programs.

     In the event of Mr. Armstrong's retirement as of October 31, 2003, he will
be entitled to payment of his supplemental pension and will be treated in
accordance with the plans, programs, and practices applicable to retired senior
managers.

     Mr. Armstrong's agreement provides that in the event of a Change in
Control, all amounts and benefits to which he is entitled but are not yet vested
(except with respect to his restricted stock unit grant which is governed by the
terms of the grant agreement) shall become fully vested. In addition, in the
event of an AT&T-initiated termination or a Constructive Termination without
"cause" following a Change in Control, he shall be entitled to the benefits
described above in connection with an AT&T-initiated termination without "cause"
or a Constructive Termination without "cause" not associated with a Change in
Control, provided, however: (1) the number of months associated with salary,
annual incentive, and benefits continuation shall be 48 months, and such amounts
will be payable as a lump sum as soon as practicable after his termination; and
(2) restricted stock units granted in his agreement will be payable in
accordance with the schedule established in his Restricted Stock Unit Award
Agreement (25% to 100% of units granted will be payable, depending on the date
of termination). In the event the payments in this paragraph are determined to
constitute a payment under Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code and such payment is
subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, AT&T will provide Mr.
Armstrong with a tax gross-up payment to negate the excise tax.

     In the event of any termination described above, Mr. Armstrong or his
estate shall also be entitled to the unpaid balance of any incentive awards for
completed performance periods, any expense reimbursements due him, and other
benefits in accordance with applicable plans and programs.

     AT&T entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Somers dated as of April
1997. The agreement provided for an initial base salary of $500,000. It also
provided for a guaranteed annual

                                       223
   230

incentive award for 1997 performance of no less than 80% of his then base salary
prorated for his partial service in 1997. Mr. Somers also was provided 17,400
performance shares covering the 1997-1999 performance period and an option to
purchase, within 10 years, up to 129,000 shares of AT&T common stock with a
purchase price of $24.0417 per share. These options vest one-third each on June
1, 1998, 1999, and 2000, based on continued employment.

     To address certain forfeitures experienced when Mr. Somers left his
previous employer and to incent him to join AT&T, the agreement provided for (i)
a payment of $238,000 to replace a forfeited bonus from his prior employer; (ii)
a payment of $337,000 to replace forfeited spread on stock options of his prior
employer; (iii) a signing bonus of $200,000; and (iv) two awards each consisting
of 17,400 performance shares/stock units for the 1995-1997 and 1996-1998
performance periods, respectively.

     As part of his employment agreement, AT&T entered into an arrangement with
Mr. Somers that will provide him with certain benefits in the event that he
terminates his employment after ten years of employment for any reason other
than death or AT&T-initiated termination for "cause." Pursuant to such
arrangement, he will be entitled to a death benefit of two and one-half times
base salary under the AT&T's life insurance program for senior managers and for
AT&T-sponsored medical coverage.

     In the event Mr. Somers is terminated by AT&T, at any time for any reason
other than "cause" or "long-term disability" (as both terms are defined in the
agreement) or in the event of self-initiated termination by Mr. Somers for "good
reason" (as defined in the agreement) following a Change in Control (as defined
in the agreement), Mr. Somers will be provided the following: immediate vesting
and continuation of all stock options granted under the agreement as if he were
eligible for AT&T post-retirement benefits, and continuation of vesting and/or
exercisability of all long-term incentive awards granted in 1998 and later years
under the terms and conditions applicable to senior managers terminating
employment with eligibility for post-retirement benefits.

     In the event Mr. Somers is terminated by AT&T at any time within five years
of his date of hire for any reason other than "cause" or "long-term disability"
or in the event of self-initiated termination by Mr. Somers for "good reason"
following a Change in Control, Mr. Somers will be provided the following: a
severance benefit, payable over 12 months, equivalent to the greater of $900,000
or 100% of the sum of his annual base salary plus target annual incentive awards
in effect at termination; a prorated target annual incentive for his year of
termination and continuation of all performance shares/stock units granted under
the agreement under the terms and conditions applicable to senior managers
terminating employment with eligibility for post-retirement benefits.

     AT&T entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Noski dated December 8,
1999. The agreement provided for an initial base salary of $750,000 per year. It
also provided for a guaranteed annual incentive award for the 2000 performance
year of no less than 100% of his then base salary, three separate performance
shares/stock unit awards under the 1997 incentive plan for 20,657, 20,287, and
21,330 for performance periods ending December 31, 1999, 2000, and 2001,
respectively. Mr. Noski also was provided an option to purchase, within 10
years, 86,000 shares of AT&T common stock with a purchase price of $57.3438 per
share, and was granted 18,900 performance shares/stock units covering the
2000-2002 performance period in accordance with the Compensation and Employee
Benefits Committee-approved compensation structure for 2000. The stock options
vest in three equal annual installments, beginning December 10, 2002, based on
continued employment.

     To address certain forfeitures experienced when Mr. Noski left his previous
employer and to provide him with incentive to join AT&T, the agreement provided
for (i) a special lump-sum cash payment of $1,561,250 payable within 30 days
from hire, and (ii) a signing bonus of $2,000,000, 50% paid within 30 days of
hire and the remaining 50% paid after six months from his date of hire.

     In accordance with his employment agreement, Mr. Noski also was granted
AT&T restricted stock, AT&T restricted stock units, and AT&T stock options under
the 1997 incentive plan to replace

                                       224
   231

similar grants forfeited from his prior employer and to provide strong
incentives to create shareholder value for AT&T shareholders.

     Details of these grants follow:

          1. To offset certain vested stock option gains forfeited by Mr. Noski
     when he left his previous employer, AT&T granted him 310,648 shares of AT&T
     restricted stock, of which 178,040 shares vested in 2000. The remaining
     132,608 shares vest as follows: 123,816 shares on October 17, 2001 and
     8,792 shares on October 17, 2002.

          2. Mr. Noski also was granted 117,513 AT&T restricted stock units, of
     which 43,666 vested in 2000. The remaining 73,847 stock units vest as
     follows: 19,899 on February 26, 2001, 10,279 on April 7, 2001, 13,489 on
     May 1, 2001, 19,900 on February 26, 2002, and 10,280 on April 7, 2002,
     assuming continued employment.

          3. Mr. Noski was granted an option to purchase, within 10 years,
     1,317,126 shares of AT&T common stock, with a purchase price of $57.3438
     per share. These options vest one-third each on December 10, 2000, 2001,
     and 2002, based on continued employment.

     As part of his employment agreement, Mr. Noski entered into a supplemental
pension arrangement with AT&T. Pursuant to such arrangement, Mr. Noski will
receive an annual benefit (as defined in the employment agreement) commencing at
his retirement at or after age 65. Such benefit will vest at age 57 and will be
payable in actuarially-reduced amounts for retirement and commencement prior to
age 65. Pension benefits payable under this arrangement will be paid out of
AT&T's operating income, and will be offset by all amounts actually received by
Mr. Noski under any other AT&T qualified and non-qualified retirement plan or
arrangement, and the actual pension benefits to be paid to Mr. Noski with
respect to that year by his prior employer under their qualified and
non-qualified defined benefit plans. In addition, Mr. Noski will be entitled to
certain other post-retirement benefits that generally are made available from
time to time to retired executive officers and service-pension-eligible senior
managers.

     Mr. Noski's agreement provides for certain entitlements in the event of his
termination from AT&T under specified circumstances. Pursuant to his agreement,
in the event of Mr. Noski's termination resulting from death or disability, Mr.
Noski, his beneficiaries, or estate will be entitled to his target annual
incentive award for the year in which his death or disability resulted in his
termination of employment (prorated for the total period of eligibility
calculated as of his date of death or disability termination), the continuation
of the vesting and distribution of actual payout for each open long-term
incentive program performance share/stock unit cycle, and payment of survivor
benefits under his supplemental pension arrangement based on the amount of the
benefits accrued, but not vested, as of the date of termination for death or
disability. All outstanding unvested stock options will continue to vest, and
together with already vested options, will be exercisable for the remainder of
the original term of each grant; all outstanding unvested restricted stock and
restricted stock units will be payable in accordance with the schedule
established in his Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements.

     In the event of a termination for "cause" (as defined) or in the event of a
voluntary resignation, other than a termination due to death or disability or a
Good Reason termination (as defined) without "cause" or retirement based on
satisfying the age and service requirements included as termination provisions
under the plan, Mr. Noski will forfeit all restricted stock and restricted stock
units as to which restrictions have not lapsed, long-term incentives with
respect to uncompleted performance cycles, outstanding stock options which are
not exercisable, and any pension benefit not yet vested under his supplemental
pension arrangement. He will receive base salary through his date of
termination, and vested stock options shall remain exercisable for 90 days after
termination or until the originally scheduled expiration date, if earlier. In
the event Mr. Noski is precluded from

                                       225
   232

exercising vested stock options within the 90 days due to an AT&T-prohibited
trading period, an additional 30 days after the end of the prohibited period
will be provided. Mr. Noski, to the extent not eligible for retiree medical
benefits from AT&T, will be eligible for coverage under the AT&T Separation
Medical Plan offered to certain former senior managers and will be responsible
for the annual premium for this coverage.

     In the event of an AT&T-initiated termination for other than "cause" or a
Good Reason termination without "cause," Mr. Noski will be provided the
following: base salary through the date of termination, a prorated annual
incentive award at target for the year of termination, a lump sum payment equal
to two times the annual base salary and target annual incentive award for the
year of termination payable. In addition, all outstanding unvested stock options
will continue to vest, and together with already vested options, will be
exercisable for the remainder of the original term of each grant; all
outstanding unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance
share units will be payable in accordance with the schedules established in his
Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit, and Performance Share Unit Award
Agreements. Mr. Noski, to the extent not eligible for retiree medical benefits
from AT&T, will be eligible for coverage under the AT&T Separation Medical Plan
offered to certain former senior managers and will be responsible for the annual
premium for this coverage.

     In 1997, AT&T adopted the Special Executive Severance Plan, or Severance
Plan, for members of the Operations Team as constituted at that time and certain
members of the Senior Management Team (a total of 10 executives, seven of whom
remain with AT&T). Under the Severance Plan, if covered executives (i) are
terminated by AT&T for other than "cause" (as defined in the Severance Plan) or
(ii) self-initiate termination for "good reason" (as defined in the Severance
Plan), they will be provided a severance payment equivalent to two times the sum
of base salary plus target annual incentive in effect at termination. The
severance amount payable may be deferred for up to five years with five annual
payments thereafter and will be credited with interest based on the interest
rate formula in effect for the Senior Management Incentive Award Deferral Plan
on the Severance Plan effective date. In addition, covered executives who
terminate under the terms of the Severance Plan will be entitled to certain
other post-termination benefits that are generally made available from time to
time to retired executive officers and service-pension-eligible senior managers.

PENSION PLANS

     AT&T maintains the AT&T Management Pension Plan, a non-contributory pension
plan which covers all management employees, including the Named Officers. The
normal retirement age under this plan is 65; however, retirement before age 65
can be elected under certain conditions.

     The AT&T Management Pension Plan was amended in 1997 to update the adjusted
career average pay formula for computing pensions. Effective August 1, 1997, the
adjusted career average pay formula was 1.6% of the average annual pay for the
three years ending December 31, 1996, times the lesser of (a) 105% of the number
of years of service prior to January 1, 1997 or (b) the number of years of
service prior to January 1, 1997 plus one. Only the basic salary was taken into
account in the formula used to compute pension amounts for the Named Officers
and other senior managers under the adjusted career average pay formula. No
service or compensation after December 31, 1996 was used in calculating an
employee's normal retirement benefit under the adjusted career average pay
formula.

     Effective January 1, 1998, the AT&T Management Pension Plan was further
amended to convert the plan to a cash balance design. Under the new design, a
hypothetical cash balance account is established for each participant for
record-keeping purposes. Each year a participant's cash balance account is
credited with (a) a pay credit based on the participant's age and eligible pay
for that year, and (b) an interest credit based on the participant's account
balance as of the end of the prior year.

                                       226
   233

Effective January 1, 1998, an eligible participant's cash balance account
received an initial credit based on a conversion benefit equal to the
participant's normal retirement benefit under the adjusted career average pay
formula described above multiplied by a conversion factor based on the
participant's age as of December 31, 1996. The initial pay credit was made as of
January 1, 1998 based on the participant's eligible pay for 1997, and the
initial interest credit was made as of January 1, 1998 based on the conversion
benefit. Only basic salary is considered eligible pay under the cash balance
design for the Named Officers and other senior managers. Interest credits are
calculated at the effective annual rate of 7% for calendar years 1997, 1998,
1999, and 2000. Under the cash balance design, a participant's benefit is
determined by projecting interest credits to his or her cash balance account to
age 65, converting the projected cash balance account to an annuity, and
reducing that annuity for early commencement. A participant's benefit under the
plan after conversion to the cash balance design will be no less than the
benefit calculated under the career average pay formula as adjusted in 1997.

     Federal laws place limitations on pensions that may be paid from the
pension trust related to the AT&T Management Pension Plan. Pension amounts based
on the AT&T Management Pension Plan formula which exceed the applicable
limitations will be paid as an operating expense.

     AT&T also maintains the AT&T Non-Qualified Pension Plan. Under the plan,
annual pensions for Messrs. Armstrong, Zeglis, Somers, Ianna and Noski, and
other senior managers, are computed based on actual annual bonus awards under
the AT&T Short Term Incentive Plan. Pension benefits under this plan will
commence at the same time as benefits under the AT&T Management Pension Plan.
The annual pension amounts payable under this plan are equal to no less than the
greater of the amounts computed under the Basic Formula or Alternate Formula
which were amended in 1997 and are described below.

     BASIC FORMULA

     For the three-year period ending December 31, 1996, 1.6% of the average of
the actual annual bonus awards times the lesser of (a) 105% of the number of
years of service prior to January 1, 1997 or (b) the number of years of service
prior to January 1, 1997 plus one.

     ALTERNATE FORMULA

     The excess of (a) 1.7% of the adjusted career average pay over (b) 0.8% of
the covered compensation base times the lesser of (i) 105% of the number of
years of service prior to January 1, 1997 or (ii) the number of years of service
prior to January 1, 1997 plus one, minus the benefit calculated under the AT&T
Management Pension Plan formula (without regard to limitations imposed by the
Code). For purposes of this formula, adjusted career average pay is the average
annual compensation for the three-year period ending December 31, 1996, without
regard to the limitations imposed by the Code. The covered compensation base
used in this formula is the average of the maximum wage amount on which an
employee was liable for Social Security tax for each year beginning with 1961
and ending with 1996. In 1996, the covered compensation base was $27,600.

     No service or compensation after December 31, 1996 is used to calculate an
employee's normal retirement benefit under the Basic Formula or Alternate
Formula.

     Effective January 1, 1998, the AT&T Non-Qualified Pension Plan was further
amended to convert the plan to a cash balance pension design. Under the new
design, a hypothetical cash balance account is established for each participant
for record-keeping purposes. Each year a participant's cash balance account is
credited with (a) an award credit based on the participant's age and short-term
award paid in that year and (b) an interest credit based on the participant's
account balance as of the end of the prior year. Effective January 1, 1998, an
eligible participant's cash balance account

                                       227
   234

received an initial credit based on a conversion benefit equal to the
participant's normal retirement benefit under the Basic Formula described above
multiplied by a conversion factor based on the participant's age as of December
31, 1996. The initial award credit was made as of January 1, 1998 based on the
participant's short-term award paid in 1997 and the initial interest credit was
made as of January 1, 1998 based on the conversion benefit. Interest credits are
calculated at the effective annual rate of 7% for calendar years 1997, 1998,
1999, and 2000. Under the cash balance design, a participant's benefit is
determined by projecting interest credits to his or her cash balance account to
age 65, converting the projected cash balance account to an annuity, and
reducing that annuity for early commencement in the same manner as under the
AT&T Management Pension Plan.

     Senior managers, including Mr. Zeglis, and certain other management
employees who are hired at age 35 or over, are covered by a supplemental AT&T
Mid-Career Pension Plan. For qualified managers retiring with at least five
years at a senior level, the plan provides additional credits at approximately
one-half the rate in the AT&T Management Pension Plan. The number of credits is
equal to the lesser of (1) actual years of net credited service at retirement,
or (2) the employee's age at the time of hire minus 30. In addition, the AT&T
Mid-Career Pension Plan was amended to provide that liability with respect to
senior managers actively employed on January 1, 1998 be transferred to the AT&T
Non-Qualified Pension Plan and converted to cash balance as described above.

     Pension amounts under the AT&T Management Pension Plan formula, the AT&T
Non-Qualified Pension Plan, or the AT&T Mid-Career Pension Plan are not subject
to reductions for Social Security Benefits or other offset amounts. If Messrs.
Armstrong, Zeglis, Somers, Ianna, and Noski continue in the positions as
previously stated and retire at the normal retirement age of 65, the estimated
annual pension amount payable under the AT&T Management Pension Plan formula and
the AT&T Non-Qualified Pension Plan would be $465,000, $1,369,700, $740,900,
$1,015,400, and $1,134,600, respectively. Amounts shown are straight life
annuity amounts not reduced by a joint and survivorship provision which is
available to these officers.

     In 1997, AT&T began purchasing annuity contracts to satisfy its unfunded
obligations to retired senior managers under the AT&T Non-Qualified Pension
Plan. In the event AT&T purchases an annuity contract for any of the Named
Officers, the pension payments for such officer will vary from that set forth
above. In such instance there would be a tax gross-up payment to the officer,
and annuity benefits paid by the annuity provider will be reduced to offset the
tax gross-up payment. The after-tax pension benefit will be the same as the
after-tax benefit the participant would otherwise have received under the AT&T
Non-Qualified Pension Plan. Receipt of the annuity is contingent on the signing
of a two-year non-competition agreement which, should competitive activity occur
within the two-year period, gives AT&T the right to seek injunctive relief and
to recapture any amounts already paid out under the annuity contract.

     In 1997, AT&T entered into a supplemental pension arrangement with Mr.
Zeglis. Pursuant to Mr. Zeglis's arrangement, if employment is terminated for
any reason other than (i) AT&T-initiated termination for "cause" (as defined in
the arrangement) or (ii) self-initiated termination prior to age 52 for other
than "good reason" (as defined in the arrangement), he will be entitled to the
supplemental pension. Under the supplemental pension arrangement, Mr. Zeglis is
entitled to pension benefits determined under the then-existing AT&T qualified
and non-qualified pension formulas, using January 1, 1973 as a date of hire, and
subject to a minimum amount. Pension benefits payable under this arrangement
will be paid out of AT&T's operating income, and will be offset by all amounts
actually received by Mr. Zeglis under any then-existing AT&T qualified and/or
non-qualified retirement plans. In addition, Mr. Zeglis will be entitled to
certain other post-retirement benefits that generally are made available from
time to time to retired executive officers and service-pension-eligible senior
managers. Pursuant to the supplemental pension arrangement for Mr. Zeglis, if he
continues in the position previously stated and retires at the normal retirement
age of 65, the

                                       228
   235

estimated annual supplemental pension amount, in addition to the pension payable
under the AT&T Management Pension Plan and AT&T Non-Qualified Pension Plan
described above, would be $140,900.

     In 1997, AT&T also entered into a special individual non-qualified
supplemental retirement arrangement with two executive officers including Mr.
Ianna. Under this agreement, on November 1, 1997 a deferred account, or Deferred
Account, was credited with an initial balance of two times base pay. AT&T shall
credit interest to the Deferred Account as of the end of each calendar quarter
at a rate equal to one-quarter of the average 30-Year Treasury Bond Rate in
effect for the last previous quarter. Pursuant to the arrangement, if (i)
employment is terminated by AT&T for any reason other than "cause" prior to the
vesting date or (ii) employee self-initiates termination prior to the vesting
date for "good reason" (as defined in the arrangement), he will be entitled to
the Deferred Account. The vesting date for the officer named above is the sixth
anniversary of the "effective date" (as defined in the arrangement). The
Deferred Account will be maintained as a bookkeeping account on the records of
AT&T and the named officers have no present ownership right or interest in the
Deferred Account, or in any assets of AT&T with respect thereto.

     As part of his employment agreement as described above, AT&T entered into a
supplemental pension arrangement with Mr. Armstrong in 1997. Pursuant to Mr.
Armstrong's arrangement, if he continues in his position as previously stated
and retires at the normal retirement age of 65, the estimated pension amount
payable under the agreement, which supplements the annual pension amount payable
under the AT&T Management Pension Plan and the AT&T Non-Qualified Pension Plan,
would be $846,600.

     As part of his employment agreement as described above, AT&T entered into a
supplemental pension arrangement with Mr. Noski in 2000. Pursuant to Mr. Noski's
arrangement, if he continues in his position as previously stated and retires at
the normal retirement age of 65, the estimated pension amount payable under the
agreement, which supplements the annual pension amount payable under the AT&T
Management Pension Plan and the AT&T Non-Qualified Pension Plan, would be
$555,100.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

     In 2000, directors who were not employees received an annual cash retainer
of $45,000 and AT&T common stock units with a then-current market value of
$45,000, which were deferred automatically and credited to a portion of a
deferred compensation account, pursuant to AT&T's Deferred Compensation Plan for
Non-Employee Directors. The chairpersons of the Audit Committee, Liberty Capital
Stock Committee, Compensation and Employee Benefits Committee, Finance
Committee, and Wireless Group Capital Stock Committee each received an
additional annual retainer of $7,500. The chairperson of the Governance and
Nominating Committee received an additional annual retainer of $5,000. No fees
are paid for attendance at regularly scheduled board and committee meetings.
Directors received a fee of $1,500 for each special board or committee meeting
attended. In addition, non-employee directors received a stock option grant to
purchase 10,000 shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock.

     Directors may elect to defer the receipt of all or part of their cash
retainer and other compensation into the AT&T common stock portion or the cash
portion of the deferred compensation account. The AT&T common stock portion (the
value of which is measured from time to time by the market value of AT&T common
stock) is credited on each dividend payment date for AT&T common stock with a
number of deferred shares of AT&T common stock equivalent in market value to the
amount of the quarterly dividend on the shares then credited in the accounts.
The cash portion of the deferred compensation account, representing amounts
deferred prior to January 1, 2001, earns interest, compounded quarterly, at an
annual rate equal to the average interest rate for ten-year

                                       229
   236

United States Treasury Notes for the previous quarter, plus 5%. Thereafter,
amounts deferred to the cash portion of the deferred compensation account earn
interest, compounded quarterly, at an annual rate equal to the average interest
rate for ten-year United States Treasury Notes for the previous quarter, plus
2%.

     Effective December 31, 1996, AT&T terminated its Pension Plan for
Non-Employee Directors. The Pension Plan now covers only those non-employee
directors who retired prior to December 31, 1996. Benefits accrued for
then-active directors were valued and converted into a deferred annuity. AT&T
also provides non-employee directors with travel accident insurance when on AT&T
business. A non-employee director may purchase life insurance sponsored by AT&T.
AT&T will share the premium expense with the director; however, all AT&T
contributions will be returned to AT&T at the earlier of (a) the director's
death or (b) the later of age 70 or 15 years from the policy's inception. This
benefit will continue after the non-employee director's retirement from the
board.

     Effective December 1997, the board adopted AT&T stock ownership targets
equal to five times the total value of the annual cash retainer and annual stock
unit amounts. Directors generally have five years to attain the ownership goal.
Ten of the non-employee directors have met their targets. Directors who are
employees of AT&T receive no compensation for serving as directors, but also
have ownership targets.

       may not occur as we currently intend, or which may not occur in the
       timeframe we currently expect,

     - the risks associated with each of AT&T's main business units operating as
       an independent entity as opposed to as part of an integrated

4. Exchange of Broadband Group Common Stock.

     (a) EXCHANGE AT OPTION OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS.  (I) At any time, the Board
of Directors may redeem all outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common Stock
for a new class of common stock of another entity that owns all of the material
assets and liabilities of the Broadband Group, provided that this new class of
common stock has substantially the same terms as those governing Broadband Group
Common Stock as provided for in this part D of this Article Third and in the
Corporation's by-laws, including with regard to the definition of "AT&T
Broadband Group," and provided, further that the per share voting rights of this
new class of common stock shall be based on the ratio of the initial trading
prices of this new class of common stock to the trading prices of the common
stock of such other entity over a fixed number of Trading Days (not to exceed
25), such number of Trading Days to be determined by the Board of Directors
prior to or at the time of such redemption.

     (II) At any time that the assets and liabilities represented by the
Broadband Group are substantially equivalent to the assets and liabilities of
the corporation as a whole, the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may
effect a recapitalization of the corporation by declaring that all of the
outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common Stock shall be exchanged for fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock on a ratio based on the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding, the number of shares of Broadband Group
Common Stock outstanding and the AT&T Broadband Group allocation fraction. In
this event, each share of Broadband Group Common Stock will be redeemed in
exchange for that number of shares of AT&T Common Stock, calculated to the
nearest 1/10,000, equal to a fraction the numerator of which is:

     a fraction the numerator of which is the product of the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis and the Broadband Group
Allocation Fraction and the denominator of which is 1 minus the Broadband Group
Allocation Fraction;

                                       A-5
   247

and the denominator of which is:

     the number or shares of Broadband Group Common Stock outstanding on a fully
diluted basis.

     All calculations of fully diluted shares of Common Stock or Broadband Group
Common Stock in the preceding sentence shall be made on the treasury basis in
accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

     (III) At any time following the occurrence of any of 1) a Tax Event or 2)
the      anniversary of the date of initial issuance of any shares of Broadband
Group Common Stock (the "Initial Issuance Date"), the Board of Directors, in its
sole discretion, may, at any time, effect a recapitalization of the corporation
(a "Board Required Exchange") by declaring that all of the outstanding shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock shall be exchanged for fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock in accordance with the Exchange Rate. In addition, at any
time following the Initial Issuance Date, so long as all of the assets and
liabilities included in the Broadband Group are held, directly or indirectly, by
one or more Qualifying Subsidiaries of the corporation (which shall not include
any Subsidiary that is a part of Liberty Media Group as defined in paragraph 9
of Part B of this Article Third, the Wireless Group as defined in paragraph 9 of
Part C of this Article Third [or the Consumer Services Group as defined in
paragraph 9 of Part E of this Article Third]) that hold no other material assets
or liabilities (the "Broadband Group Subsidiaries"), the Board of Directors may,
subject to the availability of assets of the corporation legally available
therefor, effect a Board Required Exchange by exchanging, on a pro rata basis,
all of the outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common Stock in exchange for an
aggregate number of outstanding fully paid and nonassessable shares of common
stock of such Broadband Group Subsidiary or Subsidiaries at the applicable
Exchange Rate, provided that no such exchange may occur unless the exchange is
tax free to the holders of Broadband Group Common Stock (except with respect to
any cash received by such holders in lieu of fractional shares).

     (IV) For purposes of this paragraph 4 of this Part D of this Article Third,
the term "Exchange Shares" shall mean the shares of Common Stock or shares of
the one or more Broadband Group Subsidiaries, as the case may be, into which
shares of Broadband Group Common Stock may be exchanged pursuant to paragraphs
(I), (II) or (III) above. With regard to any redemption or exchange pursuant to
paragraphs (I), (II) or (III) above, the Board of Directors may, in its sole
discretion, condition the redemption or exchange on the occurrence or failure to
occur of certain events, and the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion,
waive any of these conditions.

     (b) EXCHANGE IN CONNECTION WITH CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS.  In the
event of a Disposition other than a Broadband Group Related Business Transaction
by the corporation in a transaction or series of related transactions of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets (as defined below) of the
Broadband Group to any Person(s) or group(s) of which the corporation is not a
majority owner (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or stock,
liquidation, dissolution, winding up or otherwise) (a "Significant
Transaction"), effective upon the consummation of such sale, transfer,
assignment or other disposition and automatically without any action on the part
of the corporation or the Board of Directors or on the part of the holders of
shares of Broadband Group Common Stock, the corporation shall be recapitalized
(a "Significant Transaction Exchange") by exchanging all outstanding shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock for, at the sole discretion of the Board of
Directors, either (i) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at the
Exchange Rate or (ii) other consideration, as described in paragraph 4(c) of
this Part D of this Article Third. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the
corporation shall be under no obligation to effect a Significant Transaction
Exchange that it might otherwise be required to effect pursuant to such sentence
(and the Exchange Rate shall not apply) if (i) the underlying Significant
Transaction is conditioned upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the
holders of Broadband Group Common Stock, voting as a separate class, (ii) in
connection with a spin-off or similar distribution of the corporation's entire
interest in the Broadband Group to the holders of Broadband Group Common Stock,
including any such distribution that is made in connection with a Board Required
Exchange,

                                       A-6
   248

(iii) in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, or (iv) in connection with the
underlying Significant Transaction, the Board of Directors redeems all
outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common Stock for a new class of common
stock of another entity that owns all of the material assets and liabilities of
the Broadband Group pursuant to paragraph 4(a)(I) of this Part D of this Article
Third.

     (c) ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION IN CONNECTION WITH SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTION
EXCHANGE.  In connection with any Significant Transaction Exchange, the
corporation may, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, (i) in lieu
of issuing shares of Common Stock in exchange for shares of Broadband Group
Common Stock, either (x) subject to the limitations described in paragraph 2(b)
of this Part D of this Article Third and to the other provisions described in
this paragraph 4(c) of this Part D of this Article Third, declare and pay a
dividend in cash and/or in securities or other property (determined as provided
below) to holders of the outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common Stock
equally on a share for share basis in an aggregate amount equal to the Broadband
Group Net Proceeds of such Significant Transaction; or (y) provided that there
are assets of the corporation legally available therefor and to the extent the
Broadband Group Available Dividend Amount would have been sufficient to pay a
dividend in lieu thereof as described in clause (x) of this paragraph 4(c) of
this Part D of this Article Third, then (A) if such Significant Transaction
involves the Disposition of all (not merely substantially all) of the properties
and assets of the Broadband Group, redeem all outstanding shares of Broadband
Group Common Stock in exchange for cash and/or securities or other property
(determined as provided below) in an aggregate amount equal to the Broadband
Group Net Proceeds; or (B) if such Significant Transaction involves the
Disposition of substantially all (but not all) of the properties and assets of
the Broadband Group, apply an aggregate amount of cash and/or securities or
other property (determined as provided below) equal to the Broadband Group Net
Proceeds to the redemption of outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock, the number of shares to be redeemed to equal the lesser of (1) the whole
number nearest the number determined by dividing the aggregate amount so
allocated to the redemption of Broadband Group Common Stock by the average
Market Value of one share of Broadband Group Common Stock during the 10-Trading
Day period beginning on the 15th Trading Day following the consummation of such
Disposition, and (2) the number of shares of Broadband Group Common Stock
outstanding, and (ii) in lieu of issuing solely shares of Common Stock in
exchange for shares of Broadband Group Common Stock, subject to the limitations
described in paragraph 2(b) of this Part D of this Article Third and to the
other provisions described in paragraph 4(c) of this Part D of this Article
Third, combine the issuance of shares of Common Stock in exchange for shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock with the payment of a dividend on or the redemption
of shares of Broadband Group Common Stock for cash and/or other securities or
other property as described below.

     In the event that the Board of Directors elects the option described in
(ii) of the preceding paragraph, the outstanding shares of Broadband Group
Common Stock exchanged for fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
shall be exchanged at the Exchange Rate and a dividend shall be paid on all the
remaining shares of Broadband Group Common Stock equally on a share for share
basis, or some or all of the remaining outstanding shares of Broadband Group
Common Stock shall be exchanged for cash and/or other securities or other
property, as follows. The aggregate amount of such dividend, in the case of a
dividend, or the portion of the Broadband Group Net Proceeds to be applied to
such an exchange, in the case of an exchange, shall equal (A) an amount equal to
the total Broadband Group Net Proceeds multiplied by (B) one minus a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock exchanged for shares of Common Stock and the denominator of which shall be
the total number of outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common Stock. In the
event of an exchange, if the Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of
all (not merely substantially all) of the properties and assets of the Broadband
Group, then all remaining outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common Stock
will be redeemed in exchange for cash and/or securities or other property in an
aggregate amount equal to the portion of the Broadband Group Net Proceeds to be
applied to the exchange. If the Significant Transaction involves the Disposition
of substantially all (but not all) of the properties and

                                       A-7
   249

assets of the Broadband Group, then the portion of the Broadband Group Net
Proceeds to be applied to the exchange will be used to redeem a number of shares
equal to the lesser of (1) the whole number nearest the number determined by
dividing the aggregate amount so allocated to the redemption of Broadband Group
Common Stock by the average Market Value of one share of Broadband Group Common
Stock during the 10-Trading Day period beginning on the 15th Trading Day
following consummation of the Disposition, and (2) the number of shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock outstanding.

     For purposes of this paragraph 4 of this Part D of this Article Third, in
the case of a Significant Transaction involving a Disposition of properties and
assets in a series of related transactions, such Disposition shall not be deemed
to have been consummated until the consummation of the last of such
transactions. Any exchange described in this paragraph 4 of this Part D of this
Article Third shall be effected in accordance with the applicable provisions set
forth in paragraph 5 of this Part D of this Article Third. In the event that, at
the time of any Significant Transaction, there are outstanding any Convertible
Securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock that would give the holders rights to receive any dividend or exchange
consideration related to the Significant Transaction upon exercise, conversion
or otherwise, or would adjust as a result of such dividend or exchange to give
the holder equivalent economic rights, then the shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock underlying such Convertible Securities will be taken into account for
purposes of determining the terms of any dividend payment or exchange effected
in lieu of a Significant Transaction Exchange.

     (d) PAYMENT TO COMMON STOCK GROUP (B).  Concurrently with the payment of
any dividend referred to in paragraph 4(c) of this Part D of this Article Third,
at the election of the Board of Directors, either (A) the Common Stock Group(B)
shall receive from the Broadband Group an aggregate payment of the same kind of
property that is the subject of such dividend, which payment shall be equal to
the excess of (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate amount of
such dividend, as determined by the Board of Directors, by (y) the Broadband
Group Allocation Fraction, over (ii) the aggregate amount of such dividend, as
so determined, or (B) the Broadband Group Allocation Fraction will be adjusted
as described in paragraph 9 of this Part D of this Article Third. Any payment to
be made to the Common Stock Group(B) pursuant to the preceding sentence may, at
the discretion of the Board of Directors, be reflected by an allocation or by a
direct transfer of cash or other property.

     (e) EXCHANGE RATE.  For purposes of this paragraph 4 of this Part D of this
Article Third, the term "Exchange Rate" shall mean the number of Exchange Shares
for which each share of Broadband Group Common Stock shall be exchangeable
pursuant to a Board Required Exchange or a Significant Transaction Exchange,
determined as follows. If the shares of Broadband Group Common Stock are to be
exchanged for shares of Common Stock (other than pursuant to paragraph 4(a)(II)
of this Part D of this Article Third), each share of Broadband Group Common
Stock shall be exchangeable for such number of shares of Common Stock
(calculated to the nearest 1/10,000), subject to paragraph 5 below, equal to
     % of the ratio of the Average Market Price Per Share of such Broadband
Group Common Stock to the Average Market Price Per Share of Common Stock. For
purposes of computing the Exchange Rate, the "Average Market Price Per Share" of
Common Stock or Broadband Group Common Stock, as the case may be, shall mean (i)
in the case of a Board Required Exchange, the average of the daily Market Value
per share for such Common Stock or Broadband Group Common Stock for the 40
consecutive Trading Days ending on the 15th Trading Day prior to the date an
Exchange Notice is mailed, or (ii) in the case of a Significant Transaction
Exchange, the average of the daily Market Value per share for such Common Stock
or Broadband Group Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Days beginning on
the 15th Trading Day following consummation of the Significant Transaction. If
the shares of Broadband Group Common Stock are to be exchanged for shares of one
or more Broadband Group Subsidiaries, such shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock shall be exchanged, on a pro rata basis, for an aggregate number of
outstanding fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of each such
Broadband Group Subsidiary equal to the number of outstanding shares of common
stock

                                       A-8
   250

of such Subsidiary held by the corporation multiplied by the Broadband Group
Allocation Fraction and, if the Board of Directors so determines, the remaining
shares of such Subsidiary shall be distributed on a pro rata basis to the
holders of shares of Common Stock (or shares of Common Stock shall be exchanged
for such remaining shares of such Subsidiary); provided that no such
distribution (or mandatory exchange) may occur unless the distribution (or
mandatory exchange) is tax free to the holders of Common Stock (except with
respect to any cash received by such holders in lieu of fractional shares). If
at the time of such an exchange for shares of one or more Broadband Group
Subsidiaries, there are outstanding any Convertible Securities convertible into
or exercisable for shares of Broadband Group Common Stock that would become
exercisable or convertible for shares of one or more Broadband Group
Subsidiaries as a result of such exchange, and the obligation to issue such
shares under such options, warrants, convertible securities or similar rights is
not assumed or otherwise provided for by one or more Broadband Group
Subsidiaries, then the shares of Broadband Group Common Stock underlying such
Convertible Securities will be taken into account for purposes of determining
the Exchange Rate for such exchange.

     For purposes of this Paragraph 4 of this Part D of this Article Third,
"substantially all of the properties and assets" of the Broadband Group as of
any date shall mean a portion of such properties and assets that represents at
least 80% of the Fair Value of the properties and assets attributed to the
Broadband Group as of such date.

5. Certain Procedures Relating to Exchanges.

     (a) The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, elect to issue
fractional Exchange Shares in connection with an exchange or to make a cash
payment in lieu of fractional shares, as described below. If the Board of
Directors elects not to issue fractional Exchange Shares, then no such
fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the exchange of shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock into Exchange Shares, and, in lieu thereof, each
holder of Broadband Group Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a
fractional interest of an Exchange Share shall, upon surrender of such holder's
certificate or certificates representing shares of Broadband Group Common Stock,
receive a cash payment (without interest) (the "Fractional Payment") equal to
(i) in the case of an exchange for shares of Common Stock, the product resulting
from multiplying (A) the fraction of a share of Common Stock to which such
holder would otherwise have been entitled by (B) the Average Market Price Per
Share of Common Stock on the Exchange Date, or (ii) in the case of an exchange
for shares of one or more Broadband Group Subsidiaries, such value as is
determined by the Board of Directors.

     (b) No adjustments in respect of dividends shall be made upon the exchange
of any shares of Broadband Group Common Stock; provided, however, that, if the
Exchange Date with respect to Broadband Group Common Stock shall be subsequent
to the record date for the payment of a dividend or other distribution thereon
or with respect thereto but prior to the payment or distribution thereof, the
registered holders of such shares at the close of business on such record date
shall be entitled to receive the dividend or other distribution payable on such
shares on the date set for payment of such dividend or other distribution,
notwithstanding the exchange of such shares or the corporation's default in
payment of the dividend or distribution due on such date.

     (c) At such time or times as the corporation exercises its right to cause a
redemption or exchange pursuant to paragraphs 4(a)(I) or 4(a)(II) of this Part D
of this Article Third or to cause a Board Required Exchange, and at the time of
any Significant Transaction Exchange, the corporation shall give notice of such
exchange to the holders of Broadband Group Common Stock whose shares are to be
exchanged, by mailing by first-class mail a notice of such exchange (an
"Exchange Notice"), in the case of an exchange at the discretion of the Board of
Directors, not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for
such exchange (the "Exchange Date"), and, in the case of any other required
exchange, as soon as practicable before or after the Exchange Date, in either
case, to their last addresses as they appear upon the corporation's books. Each
such Exchange Notice shall specify 1) the Exchange Date, 2) the Exchange Rate
applicable to, or a

                                       A-9
   251

description of the consideration to be received in, such exchange, and 3) any
conditions to the occurrence of such exchange as set forth by the Board of
Directors (which conditions may be waived by the Board of Directors in its sole
discretion), and shall state that issuance of certificates representing the
applicable type of Exchange Shares to be received upon exchange of shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock shall be upon surrender of certificates
representing such shares of Broadband Group Common Stock.

     (d) Before any holder of shares of Broadband Group Common Stock shall be
entitled to receive certificates representing such Exchange Shares, such holder
must surrender, at such office as the corporation shall specify, certificates
for such shares of Broadband Group Common Stock duly endorsed to the corporation
or in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer to the Corporation
or in blank, unless the corporation shall waive such requirement. The
corporation shall, as soon as practicable after such surrender of certificates
representing such shares of Broadband Group Common Stock, issue and deliver, at
the office of the transfer agent representing Exchange Shares, to the holder for
whose account such shares of Broadband Group Common Stock were so surrendered,
or to such holder's nominee or nominees, certificates representing the number of
Exchange Shares to which such holder shall be entitled, together with the
Fractional Payment, if any.

     (e) From and after any Exchange Date, all rights of a holder of shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock shall cease except for the right, upon surrender of
the certificates representing such shares of Broadband Group Common Stock, to
receive certificates representing Exchange Shares together with a Fractional
Payment, if any, as described in paragraphs 5(a) and 5(d) of this Part D of this
Article Third and rights to dividends as described in paragraph 5(b) of this
Part D of this Article Third. No holder of a certificate that immediately prior
to the applicable Exchange Date represented shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock shall be entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution with
respect to Exchange Shares until surrender of such holder's certificate for a
certificate or certificates representing Exchange Shares. Upon surrender, the
holder shall receive the amount of any dividends or other distributions (without
interest) that were payable with respect to a record date after the Exchange
Date, but that were not paid by reason of the foregoing with respect to the
number of Exchange Shares represented by the certificate or certificates issued
upon such surrender. From and after an Exchange Date applicable to Broadband
Group Common Stock, the corporation shall, however, be entitled to treat
certificates for Broadband Group Common Stock that have not yet been surrendered
for exchange as evidencing the ownership of the number of Exchange Shares for
which the shares of Broadband Group Common Stock represented by such
certificates have been exchanged, notwithstanding the failure to surrender such
certificates.

     (f) If any certificate for Exchange Shares is to be issued in a name other
than that in which the certificate representing shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of
such issuance that the person requesting the issuance pays any transfer or other
taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates for such Exchange
Shares in a name other than that of the record holder of the certificate
surrendered, or establishes, to the satisfaction of the corporation or its
agent, that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Under no circumstances
shall the corporation be liable to a holder of shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock for any Exchange Shares or dividends or distributions thereon delivered to
a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or
similar law.

     (g) At the time an Exchange Notice is delivered with respect to any shares
of Broadband Group Common Stock, or at the time of the Exchange Date, if
earlier, the corporation shall have reserved and kept available, solely for the
purpose of issuance upon exchange of the outstanding shares of Broadband Group
Common Stock, such number of Exchange Shares as shall be issuable upon the
exchange of the number of shares of Broadband Group Common Stock specified or to
be specified in the applicable Exchange Notice, provided that the corporation
shall not under any circumstances be precluded from satisfying its obligation in
respect of the exchange of the outstanding shares of Broadband Group Common
Stock by delivery of purchased Exchange Shares that are held in the treasury of
the corporation.

                                       A-10

6. Liquidation.

     In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment or provision for
payment of the debts and other liabilities of the corporation and subject to the
prior payment in full of the preferential amounts to which any class or series
of Preferred Stock is entitled, (a) as provided in paragraph 6 of Part B of this
Article Third, the holders of the shares of Class A Liberty Media Group Common
Stock and the holders of the shares of Class B Liberty Media Group Common Stock
shall share equally, on a share for share basis, in a percentage of the funds of
the corporation remaining for distribution to its common shareholders equal to
100% multiplied by the average daily ratio (expressed as a decimal) of Y/Z for
the 20-Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day prior to the date of the
public announcement of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, (b) as
provided in paragraph 6 of Part C of this Article Third, the holders of the
shares of Wireless Group Common Stock shall share in the aggregate in a
percentage of the funds of the corporation remaining for distribution to its
common shareholders equal to 100% multiplied by the average daily ratio
(expressed as a decimal) of W/Z for such 20-Trading Day period, [(c) as provided
in paragraph 6 of Part E of this Article Third, the holders of the shares of
Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall share in the aggregate in a
percentage of the funds of the corporation remaining for distribution to its
common shareholders equal to 100% multiplied by the average daily ratio
(expressed as a decimal) of C/Z for such 20-Trading Day period], (d) the holders
of the shares of Common Stock shall share in the aggregate in a percentage of
the funds of the corporation remaining for distribution to its common
shareholders equal to 100% multiplied by the average daily ratio (expressed as a
decimal) of X/Z for such 20-Trading Day period, (e) the holders of the shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock shall share in the aggregate in a percentage of the
funds of the corporation remaining for distribution to its common shareholders
equal to 100% multiplied by the average daily ratio (expressed as a decimal) of
B/Z for such 20-Trading Day period, and (f) if applicable, the holders of the
shares of any other class of common shares of the corporation (other than Common
Stock, Broadband Group Common Stock, Liberty Media Group Common Stock, Wireless
Group Common Stock or Consumer Services Group Common Stock), on the basis that
may be set forth in this Certificate with respect to any such shares, shall
share in the aggregate in a percentage of the funds of the corporation remaining
for distribution to its common shareholders equal to 100% multiplied by the
average daily ratio (expressed as a decimal) of V/Z for such 20-Trading Day
period, where Y is the aggregate Market Capitalization of the Class A Liberty
Media Group Common Stock and the Class B Liberty Media Group Common Stock, X is
the aggregate Market Capitalization of the Common Stock, W is the aggregate
Market Capitalization of the Wireless Group Common Stock, [C is the aggregate
Market Capitalization of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, B is the
aggregate Market Capitalization of Broadband Group Common Stock,] V is the
aggregate Market Capitalization, if applicable, of any other class of common
shares (other than Common Stock, Broadband Group Common Stock, Liberty Media
Group Common Stock, Wireless Group Common Stock [and Consumer Services Group
Common Stock]), and Z is the aggregate Market Capitalization of (i) the Class A
Liberty Media Group Common Stock and the Class B Liberty Media Group Common
Stock, (ii) the Wireless Group Common Stock, [(iii) the Consumer Services Group
Common Stock,] (iv) the Common Stock, (vi) the Broadband Group Common Stock and
(iv) any other class of common shares of the corporation (other than Common
Stock, Broadband Group Common Stock, Liberty Media Group Common Stock, Wireless
Group Common Stock [and Consumer Services Group Common Stock]). Neither the
consolidation or merger of the corporation with or into any other corporation or
corporations nor the sale, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the
assets of the corporation shall itself be deemed to be a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the corporation within the meaning of this
paragraph 6 of this Part D of this Article Third. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all of the
assets and liabilities included in the Broadband Group being held by one or more
Broadband Group Subsidiaries, and the distribution of some or all of the shares
of such Broadband Group Subsidiaries (and no other

                                       A-11
   253

material assets or liabilities) to the holders of the outstanding Broadband
Group Common Stock shall not constitute a voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the corporation for purposes of this paragraph 6 of
this Part D of this Article Third, but shall be subject to paragraph 4 of this
Part D of this Article Third. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or
series of related transactions that results in all of the assets and liabilities
included in Liberty Media Group being held by one or more Liberty Media Group
Subsidiaries (as defined in paragraph 5(a) of Part B of this Article Third), and
the distribution of such Liberty Media Group Subsidiaries (and no other material
assets or liabilities) to the holders of the outstanding Liberty Media Group
Common Stock shall not constitute a voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the corporation for purposes of this paragraph 6 of
this Part D of this Article Third, but shall be subject to paragraph 5(a) of
Part B of this Article Third. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or
series of related transactions that results in all of the assets and liabilities
included in the Wireless Group being held by one or more Wireless Group
Subsidiaries, and the distribution of some or all of the shares of such Wireless
Group Subsidiaries (and no other material assets or liabilities) to the holders
of the outstanding Wireless Group Common Stock shall not constitute a voluntary
or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation for
purposes of this paragraph 6 of this Part D of this Article Third, but shall be
subject to paragraph 4 of Part C of this Article Third. [Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any transaction or series of related transactions that results in all
of the assets and liabilities included in the Consumer Services Group being held
by one or more Consumer Services Group Subsidiaries, and the distribution of
some or all of the shares of such Consumer Services Group Subsidiaries (and no
other material assets or liabilities) to the holders of the outstanding Consumer
Services Group Common Stock shall not constitute a voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation for purposes of this
paragraph 6 of this Part D of this Article Third, but shall be subject to
paragraph 4 of Part E of this Article Third.]

7. Determinations by the Board of Directors.

     Any determinations made by the Board of Directors under any provision of
this Part D of this Article Third shall be final and binding on all shareholders
of the corporation, except as may otherwise be required by law. The corporation
shall prepare a statement of any determination by the Board of Directors,
respecting the fair market value of any properties, assets or securities, and
shall file such statement with the Secretary of the corporation.

8. Adjustment of the Broadband Group Allocation Fraction.

     (a) The denominator of the Broadband Group Allocation Fraction shall be
adjusted from time to time as deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors (i)
to reflect subdivisions (by stock split or otherwise) and combinations (by
reverse stock split or otherwise) of Broadband Group Common Stock and stock
dividends payable in shares of Broadband Group Common Stock, (ii) to reflect the
fair market value of contributions or allocations by the corporation of cash or
property or other assets or liabilities from the Common Stock Group(B) to the
Broadband Group (or vice versa), or of cash or property or other assets or
liabilities of the Common Stock Group(B) to, or for the benefit of, employees of
the Broadband Group in connection with employee benefit plans or arrangements of
the corporation or any of its subsidiaries (or vice versa), (iii) to reflect the
number of shares of capital stock of the corporation contributed to, or for the
benefit of, employees of the Broadband Group in connection with benefit plans or
arrangements of the corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) to reflect
repurchases by the corporation of shares of Broadband Group Common Stock for the
account of the Broadband Group, (v) to reflect issuances of Broadband Group
Common Stock for the account of the Broadband Group, (vi) to reflect dividends
or other distributions to holders of the Broadband Group Common Stock to the
extent no payment is made to the Common Stock Group(B), and (vii) under such
other circumstances as the Board of Directors determines appropriate to reflect
the economic substance of any other event or circumstance, provided that, in
each case, the adjustment shall be made in a manner that is fair and equitable
to holders of Common

                                       A-12
   254

Stock and Broadband Group Common Stock (and intended to reflect the relative
deemed economic ownership interest, if any, of the Common Stock Group(B) in the
Broadband Group). Any adjustment made by the Board of Directors pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall, subject to the foregoing, be at the sole discretion of
the Board of Directors, and all such determinations shall be final and binding
on all shareholders of the corporation. For purposes of this paragraph 8 of this
Part D of this Article Third, the consideration paid by the Common Stock
Group(B) to acquire any assets or other property or contributed or allocated to
the Broadband Group shall be presumed to be the "fair market value" as of its
acquisition.

     (b) Without duplication of any adjustment pursuant to paragraph 8(a) of
this Part D of this Article Third, in the event that the corporation shall issue
shares of Broadband Group Common Stock for the account of the Broadband Group,
then the denominator of the Broadband Group Allocation Fraction shall be
increased by the number of shares of Broadband Group Common Stock so issued.

     (c) Without duplication of any adjustment pursuant to paragraph 8(a) of
this Part D of this Article Third, if, in connection with any share issuance
described in paragraph 8(b) of this Part D of this Article Third, or otherwise,
the corporation contributes or allocates cash or other property or assets from

hand, the following: (a) in the case of the Broadband Group as a whole, the

holders of any securities of the corporation or any other Person that are
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Broadband Group
Common Stock are entitled to participate in any dividend or other distribution
with respect to the Broadband Group Common Stock, such shares so issuable upon

transferred to stated capital specifically in respect of Broadband Group Common
Stock, minus (c) all reductions from such sums set forth in clauses (i), (ii)
and (iii) above as have been effected in a manner permitted by law; provided,
however, that, in the event that the law governing the corporation changes from
that governing the corporation on the date the adoption of the Amendment to this
Certificate pursuant to which the Broadband Group Common Stock was authorized
(whether because of amendment of the applicable law or because of a change in
the jurisdiction of incorporation of the corporation through merger or
otherwise), the Broadband Group Available Dividend Amount shall mean the amount
of dividends, as determined by the Board of Directors, that could be paid by a
corporation (governed under such applicable law) having the assets and

the outstanding Broadband Group Common Stock and of each class or series of

earnings or loss or other relevant corporate attributes as reasonably determined
by the Board of Directors in light of all factors deemed relevant by the Board

any transaction costs borne by the Common Stock

                                       A-14

Stock Group(B) in connection with such Disposition, (c) any liabilities and
other obligations (contingent or otherwise) of the Broadband Group borne by the
Common Stock Group(B) in connection with such Disposition, including, without
limitation, any indemnity or guarantee obligations incurred by the Common Stock
Group(B) in connection with the Disposition or any liabilities assumed by the
Common Stock Group(B) for future purchase price adjustments, and (d) any
preferential amounts, accumulated and unpaid dividends and other obligations in
respect of Preferred Stock attributed to the Broadband Group. To the extent the
proceeds of any Disposition include any securities or other property other than
cash, the Board of Directors shall determine the value of such securities or

corporation therein, other than (a) the Broadband Group Allocated Portion of the

                                       A-16

in the event that the Broadband Group Allocation Fraction is less than one, the
holders of Common Stock (or any such securities into which the Broadband Group

or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (including
enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial or regulatory
decision, determination or pronouncement) which amendment, clarification or
change is effective, announced, released, promulgated or issued on or after the
date of initial issuance of the Broadband Group Common Stock, regardless of
whether such amendment, clarification or change is issued to or in connection
with a proceeding involving the corporation, the Common Stock Group(B) or the
Broadband Group and whether or not subject to appeal, there is more than an
insubstantial risk that:

          (i) for tax purposes, any issuance of Broadband Group Common Stock
     would be treated as a sale or other taxable disposition by the corporation
     or any of its Subsidiaries of any of the assets, operations or relevant
     subsidiaries to which the Broadband Group Common Stock relates,

          (ii) the existence of the Broadband Group Common Stock would subject
     the corporation, its Subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their respective
     successors or shareholders to the imposition of tax or to other adverse tax
     consequences, or

          (iii) for tax purposes, either Common Stock or Broadband Group Common
     Stock is not or, at any time in the future, will not be treated solely as
     common stock of the corporation.

of (1) Liberty Media Group Available Dividend Amount, (2) the Wireless Group
Available Dividend Amount [and (3) the Broadband Group Available Dividend
Amount] and (ii) the Consumer Services Group Available Dividend Amount.
Concurrently with the payment of any dividend on shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock, at the election of the Board of Directors, either (x) the
Common Stock Group(C) shall receive from the Consumer Services Group an
aggregate payment of the same kind of cash and/or property that is the subject
of such dividend, which payment shall be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the
quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount of such dividend, as
determined by the Board of Directors, by (B) the Consumer Services Group
Allocation Fraction, over (ii) the aggregate amount of such dividend, as so
determined, or (y) the Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction will be
adjusted as described in paragraph 9 of this Part E of this Article Third. The
payment to be made to the Common Stock Group(C) pursuant to the preceding
sentence may, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, be reflected by an
allocation or by a direct transfer of cash or other property.

     (c) DISCRIMINATION BETWEEN OR AMONG CLASSES OF COMMON SHARES.  The Board of
Directors, subject to the provisions of paragraphs 2(a) and 2(b) of this Part E
of this Article Third, paragraph 3(b) of Part B of this Article Third,
paragraphs 2(a) and 2(b) of Part C of this Article Third [and paragraphs 2(a)
and 2(b) of Part D of this Article Third], shall have the sole authority and
discretion to declare and pay dividends (or to refrain from declaring or paying
the same) exclusively to the holders of Common Stock, exclusively to the holders
of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, exclusively to the holders of Liberty
Media Group Common Stock, exclusively to holders of Wireless Group Common Stock,
[exclusively to holders of Broadband Group Common Stock,] exclusively to the
holders of any other class of common shares or to the holders of any two or more
of such classes in equal or unequal amounts, notwithstanding the relationship
between the Common Stock Available Dividend Amount(C), the Consumer Services
Group Available Dividend Amount, Liberty Media Group Available Dividend Amount,
the Wireless Group Available Dividend Amount, [the Broadband Group Available
Dividend Amount,] the respective amounts of prior dividends declared on, or the
liquidation rights of, Common Stock, Consumer Services Group Common Stock, Class
A Liberty Media Group Common Stock, Class B Liberty Media Group Common Stock,
Wireless Group Common Stock, [Broadband Group Common Stock] or any other factor.

3. Share Distributions.

     Subject to the provisions of paragraph 4 of Part B of this Article Third,
paragraph 3 of Part C of this Article Third [and paragraph 3 of Part D of this
Article Third], the corporation may declare and pay a distribution consisting of
shares of Common Stock, Consumer Services Group Common Stock or any other
securities of the corporation or any other Person (hereinafter sometimes called
a "share distribution") to holders of Common Stock or Consumer Services Group
Common Stock only in accordance with this paragraph 3 of this Part E of this
Article Third.

     (a) DISTRIBUTIONS ON COMMON STOCK OR CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP COMMON
STOCK.  Except as set forth in paragraph 4 of Part B of this Article Third,
paragraph 3 of Part C of this Article Third [and paragraph 3 of Part D of this
Article Third], the corporation may declare and pay a share distribution to
holders of Common Stock, Consumer Services Group Common Stock or any other class
of common shares (other than Liberty Media Group Common Stock, Wireless Group
Common Stock or Broadband Group Common Stock) consisting of any securities of
the corporation, any Subsidiary of the corporation, or any other Person,
including, without limitation, a share distribution consisting of shares of any
class or series of Preferred Stock or shares of Common Stock, Consumer Services
Group Common Stock or any other class of common shares (other than Liberty Media
Group Common Stock, Wireless Group Common Stock or Broadband Group Common Stock)
(or Convertible Securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
shares of any class or series of Preferred Stock or shares of Common Stock,
Consumer Services Group Common Stock or any

                                       B-4
   263

other class of common shares (other than Liberty Media Group Common Stock,
Wireless Group Common Stock or Broadband Group Common Stock)).

     Concurrently with the making of any share distribution with respect to
Consumer Services Group Common Stock, at the election of the Board of Directors,
either (x) the Common Stock Group(C) shall receive from the Consumer Services
Group an aggregate payment of the same kind of property that is the subject of
such distribution, which payment shall be equal to the excess, if any, of (i)
the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount of such distribution,
as determined by the Board of Directors, by (B) the Consumer Services Group
Allocation Fraction, over (ii) the aggregate amount of such dividend, as so
determined, or (y) the Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction shall be
adjusted as described in paragraph 9 of this Part E of this Article Third. Any
payment to be made to the Common Stock Group(C) pursuant to the preceding
sentence may, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, be reflected by an
allocation or by a direct transfer of cash or other property.

     (b) DISCRIMINATION BETWEEN OR AMONG CLASSES OF COMMON SHARES.  The Board of
Directors, subject to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 3 of this Part
E of this Article Third, the provisions of paragraph 4 of Part B of this Article
Third, the provisions of paragraph 3 of Part C of this Article Third [and the
provisions of paragraph 3 of Part D of this Article Third], shall have the sole
authority and discretion to declare and pay (or to refrain from declaring or
paying) share distributions exclusively to holders of Common Stock, exclusively
to holders of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, exclusively to holders of
Liberty Media Group Common Stock, exclusively to holders of Wireless Group
Common Stock, [exclusively to holders of Broadband Group Common Stock,]
exclusively to the holders of any other class of common shares or to holders of
any two or more of such classes in equal or unequal amounts, notwithstanding the
relationship between the Common Stock Available Dividend Amount(C), the Consumer
Services Group Available Dividend Amount, Liberty Media Group Available Dividend
Amount, the Wireless Group Available Dividend Amount, [the Broadband Group
Available Dividend Amount,] the respective amounts of prior share distributions
declared on, or the liquidation rights of, Common Stock, Consumer Services Group
Common Stock, Class A Liberty Media Group Common Stock and Class B Liberty Media
Group Common Stock, Wireless Group Common Stock, [Broadband Group Common Stock]
or any other factor.

4. Exchange of Consumer Services Group Common Stock.

     (a) EXCHANGE AT OPTION OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS.  (I) At any time, the Board
of Directors may redeem all outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock for a new class of common stock of another entity that owns all of the
material assets and liabilities of the Consumer Services Group, provided that
this new class of common stock has substantially the same terms as those
governing Consumer Services Group Common Stock as provided for in this Part E of
this Article Third and in the Corporation's by-laws, including with regard to
the definition of "Consumer Services Group", and provided, further that the per
share voting rights of this new class of common stock shall be based on the
ratio of the initial trading prices of this new class of common stock to the
trading prices of the common stock of such other entity over a fixed number of
Trading Days (not to exceed 25), such number of Trading Days to be determined by
the Board of Directors prior to or at the time of such redemption.

     (II) At any time following the occurrence of any of 1) a Tax Event or 2)
the           anniversary of the date of initial issuance of any shares of
Consumer Services Group Common Stock (the "Initial Issuance Date"), the Board of
Directors, in its sole discretion, may, at any time, effect a recapitalization
of the corporation (a "Board Required Exchange") by declaring that all of the
outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall be exchanged
for fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with the
Exchange Rate. In addition, at any time following the Initial Issuance Date, so
long as all of the assets and liabilities included in the Consumer Services
Group are held, directly or indirectly, by one or more Qualifying Subsidiaries
of the corporation (which shall not include any Subsidiary that is a part of
Liberty Media Group as

                                       B-5
   264

defined in paragraph 9 of Part B of this Article Third, the Wireless Group as
defined in paragraph 9 of Part C of this Article Third [or the Broadband Group
as defined in paragraph 9 of Part D of this Article Third]) that hold no other
material assets or liabilities (the "Consumer Services Group Subsidiaries"), the
Board of Directors may, subject to the availability of assets of the corporation
legally available therefor, effect a Board Required Exchange by exchanging, on a
pro rata basis, all of the outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock in exchange for an aggregate number of outstanding fully paid and
nonassessable shares of common stock of such Consumer Services Group Subsidiary
or Subsidiaries at the applicable Exchange Rate, provided that no such exchange
may occur unless the exchange is tax free to the holders of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock (except with respect to any cash received by such holders in
lieu of fractional shares).

     (III) For purposes of this paragraph 4 of this Part E of this Article
Third, the term "Exchange Shares" shall mean the shares of Common Stock or
shares of the one or more Consumer Services Group Subsidiaries, as the case may
be, into which shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock may be exchanged
pursuant to paragraphs (I) or (II) above. With regard to any redemption or
exchange pursuant to paragraphs (I) or (II) above, the Board of Directors may,
in its sole discretion, condition the redemption or exchange on the occurrence
or failure to occur of certain events, and the Board of Directors may, in its
sole discretion, waive any of these conditions.

     (b) EXCHANGE IN CONNECTION WITH CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS.  In the
event of a Disposition other than a Consumer Services Group Related Business
Transaction by the corporation in a transaction or series of related
transactions of all or substantially all of the properties and assets (as
defined below) of the Consumer Services Group to any Person(s) or group(s) of
which the corporation is not a majority owner (whether by merger, consolidation,
sale of assets or stock, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or otherwise) (a
"Significant Transaction"), effective upon the consummation of such sale,
transfer, assignment or other disposition and automatically without any action
on the part of the corporation or the Board of Directors or on the part of the
holders of shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, the corporation shall
be recapitalized (a "Significant Transaction Exchange") by exchanging all
outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock for, at the sole
discretion of the Board of Directors, either (i) fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock at the Exchange Rate or (ii) other consideration, as
described in paragraph 4(c) of this Part E of this Article Third.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the corporation shall be under no
obligation to effect a Significant Transaction Exchange that it might otherwise
be required to effect pursuant to such sentence (and the Exchange Rate shall not
apply) if (i) the underlying Significant Transaction is conditioned upon the
affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock, voting as a separate class, (ii) in connection with a spin-off or similar
distribution of the corporation's entire interest in the Consumer Services Group
to the holders of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, including any such
distribution that is made in connection with a Board Required Exchange, (iii) in
connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation,
whether voluntary or involuntary, or (iv) in connection with the underlying
Significant Transaction, the Board of Directors redeems all outstanding shares
of Consumer Services Common Stock for a new class of common stock of another
entity that owns all of the material assets and liabilities of the Consumer
Services Group pursuant to paragraph 4(a)(I) of this Part E of this Article
Third.

     (c) ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION IN CONNECTION WITH SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTION
EXCHANGE.  In connection with any Significant Transaction Exchange, the
corporation may, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, (i) in lieu
of issuing shares of Common Stock in exchange for shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock, either (x) subject to the limitations described in paragraph
2(b) of this Part E of this Article Third and to the other provisions described
in this paragraph 4(c) of this Part E of this Article Third, declare and pay a
dividend in cash and/or in securities or other property (determined as provided
below) to holders of the outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock equally on a share for share basis in an aggregate amount

                                       B-6
   265

equal to the Consumer Services Group Net Proceeds of such Significant
Transaction; or (y) provided that there are assets of the corporation legally
available therefor and to the extent the Consumer Services Group Available
Dividend Amount would have been sufficient to pay a dividend in lieu thereof as
described in clause (x) of this paragraph 4(c) of this Part E of this Article
Third, then (A) if such Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of all
(not merely substantially all) of the properties and assets of the Consumer
Services Group, redeem all outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock in exchange for cash and/or securities or other property (determined as
provided below) in an aggregate amount equal to the Consumer Services Group Net
Proceeds; (B) if such Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of
substantially all (but not all) of the properties and assets of the Consumer
Services Group, apply an aggregate amount of cash and/or securities or other
property (determined as provided below) equal to the Consumer Services Group Net
Proceeds to the redemption of outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group
Common Stock, the number of shares to be redeemed to equal the lesser of (1) the
whole number nearest the number determined by dividing the aggregate amount so
allocated to the redemption of Consumer Services Group Common Stock by the
average Market Value of one share of Consumer Services Group Common Stock during
the 10-Trading Day period beginning on the 15th Trading Day following the
consummation of such Disposition, and (2) the number of shares of Consumer
Services Group Common Stock outstanding; and (ii) in lieu of issuing solely
shares of Common Stock in exchange for shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock, subject to the limitations described in paragraph 2(b) of this Part E of
this Article Third and to the other provisions described in paragraph 4(c) of
this Part E of this Article Third, combine the issuance of shares of Common
Stock in exchange for shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock with the
payment of a dividend on or the redemption of shares of Consumer Services Group
Common Stock for cash and/or other securities or other property as described
below.

     In the event that the Board of Directors elects the option described in
(ii) of the preceding paragraph, the outstanding shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock exchanged for fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common
Stock shall be exchanged at the Exchange Rate and a dividend shall be paid on
all the remaining shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock equally on a
share for share basis, or some or all of the remaining outstanding shares of
Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall be exchanged for cash and/or other
securities or other property, as follows. The aggregate amount of such dividend,
in the case of a dividend, or the portion of the Consumer Services Group Net
Proceeds to be applied to such an exchange, in the case of an exchange, shall
equal (A) an amount equal to the total Consumer Services Group Net Proceeds
multiplied by (B) one minus a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock exchanged for shares of
Common Stock and the denominator of which shall be the total number of
outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock. In the event of an
exchange, if the Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of all (not
merely substantially all) of the properties and assets of the Consumer Services
Group, then all remaining outstanding shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock will be redeemed in exchange for cash and/or securities or other property
in an aggregate amount equal to the portion of the Consumer Services Group Net
Proceeds to be applied to the exchange. If the Significant Transaction involves
the Disposition of substantially all (but not all) of the properties and assets
of the Consumer Services Group, then the portion of the Consumer Services Group
Net Proceeds to be applied to the exchange will be used to redeem a number of
shares equal to the lesser of (1) the whole number nearest the number determined
by dividing the aggregate amount so allocated to the redemption of Consumer
Services Group Common Stock by the average Market Value of one share of Consumer
Services Group Common Stock during the 10-Trading Day period beginning on the
15th Trading Day following consummation of the Disposition, and (2) the number
of shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock outstanding.

     For purposes of this paragraph 4 of this Part E of this Article Third, in
the case of a Significant Transaction involving a Disposition of properties and
assets in a series of related transactions, such Disposition shall not be deemed
to have been consummated until the consummation of the last of such
transactions. Any exchange described in this paragraph 4 of this Part E of this
Article Third

                                       B-7
   266

shall be effected in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in
paragraph 5 of this Part E of this Article Third. In the event that, at the time
of any Significant Transaction, there are outstanding any Convertible Securities
convertible into or exercisable for shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock that would give the holders rights to receive any dividend or exchange
consideration related to the Significant Transaction upon exercise, conversion
or otherwise, or would adjust as a result of such dividend or exchange to give
the holder equivalent economic rights, then the shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock underlying such Convertible Securities will be taken into
account for purposes of determining the terms of any dividend payment or
exchange effected in lieu of a Significant Transaction Exchange.

     (d) PAYMENT TO COMMON STOCK GROUP(C).  Concurrently with the payment of any
dividend referred to in paragraph 4(c) of this Part E of this Article Third, at
the election of the Board of Directors, either (A) the Common Stock Group(C)
shall receive from the Consumer Services Group an aggregate payment of the same
kind of property that is the subject of such dividend, which payment shall be
equal to the excess of (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate
amount of such dividend, as determined by the Board of Directors, by (y) the
Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction, over (ii) the aggregate amount of
such dividend, as so determined, or (B) the Consumer Services Group Allocation
Fraction will be adjusted as described in paragraph 9 of this Part E of this
Article Third. Any payment to be made to the Common Stock Group(C) pursuant to
the preceding sentence may, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, be
reflected by an allocation or by a direct transfer of cash or other property.

     (e) EXCHANGE RATE.  For purposes of this paragraph 4 of this Part E of this
Article Third, the term "Exchange Rate" shall mean the number of Exchange Shares
for which each share of Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall be
exchangeable pursuant to a Board Required Exchange or a Significant Transaction
Exchange, determined as follows. If the shares of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock are to be exchanged for shares of Common Stock, each share of Consumer
Services Group Common Stock shall be exchangeable for such number of shares of
Common Stock (calculated to the nearest 1/10,000), subject to paragraph 5 below,
equal to      % of the ratio of the Average Market Price Per Share of such
Consumer Services Group Common Stock to the Average Market Price Per Share of
Common Stock. For purposes of computing the Exchange Rate, the "Average Market
Price Per Share" of Common Stock or Consumer Services Group Common Stock, as the
case may be, shall mean (i) in the case of a Board Required Exchange, the
average of the daily Market Value per share for such Common Stock or Consumer
Services Group Common Stock for the 40 consecutive Trading Days ending on the
15th Trading Day prior to the date an Exchange Notice is mailed, or (ii) in the
case of a Significant Transaction Exchange, the average of the daily Market
Value per share for such Common Stock or Consumer Services Group Common Stock
for the 10 consecutive Trading Days beginning on the 15th Trading Day following
consummation of the Significant Transaction. If the shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock are to be exchanged for shares of one or more Consumer
Services Group Subsidiaries, such shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock
shall be exchanged, on a pro rata basis, for an aggregate number of outstanding
fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of each such Consumer
Services Group Subsidiary equal to the number of outstanding shares of common
stock of such Subsidiary held by the corporation multiplied by the Consumer
Services Group Allocation Fraction and, if the Board of Directors so determines,
the remaining shares of such Subsidiary shall be distributed on a pro rata basis
to the holders of shares of Common Stock (or shares of Common Stock shall be
exchanged for such remaining shares of such Subsidiary); provided that no such
distribution (or mandatory exchange) may occur unless the distribution (or
mandatory exchange) is tax free to the holders of Common Stock (except with
respect to any cash received by such holders in lieu of fractional shares). If
at the time of such an exchange for shares of one or more Consumer Services
Group Subsidiaries, there are outstanding any Convertible Securities convertible
into or exercisable for shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock that
would become exercisable or convertible for shares of one or more Consumer
Services Group Subsidiaries as a result of such exchange, and the obligation to
issue such shares under such options, warrants, convertible securities or
similar rights is not assumed or otherwise provided for by one or more

                                       B-8
   267

Consumer Services Group Subsidiaries, then the shares of Consumer Services Group
Common Stock underlying such Convertible Securities will be taken into account
for purposes of determining the Exchange Rate for such exchange.

     For purposes of this Paragraph 4 of this Part E of this Article Third,
"substantially all of the properties and assets" of the Consumer Services Group
as of any date shall mean a portion of such properties and assets that
represents at least 80% of the Fair Value of the properties and assets
attributed to the Consumer Services Group as of such date.

5. Certain Procedures Relating to Exchanges.

     (a) The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, elect to issue
fractional Exchange Shares in connection with an exchange or to make a cash
payment in lieu of fractional shares, as described below. If the Board of
Directors elects not to issue fractional Exchange Shares, then no such
fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the exchange of shares of
Consumer Services Group Common Stock into Exchange Shares, and, in lieu thereof,
each holder of Consumer Services Group Common Stock who would otherwise be
entitled to a fractional interest of an Exchange Share shall, upon surrender of
such holder's certificate or certificates representing shares of Consumer
Services Group Common Stock, receive a cash payment (without interest) (the
"Fractional Payment") equal to (i) in the case of an exchange for shares of
Common Stock, the product resulting from multiplying (A) the fraction of a share
of Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled by (B)
the Average Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the Exchange Date, or (ii)
in the case of an exchange for shares of one or more Consumer Services Group
Subsidiaries, such value as is determined by the Board of Directors.

     (b) No adjustments in respect of dividends shall be made upon the exchange
of any shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock; provided, however, that,
if the Exchange Date with respect to Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall
be subsequent to the record date for the payment of a dividend or other
distribution thereon or with respect thereto but prior to the payment or
distribution thereof, the registered holders of such shares at the close of
business on such record date shall be entitled to receive the dividend or other
distribution payable on such shares on the date set for payment of such dividend
or other distribution, notwithstanding the exchange of such shares or the
corporation's default in payment of the dividend or distribution due on such
date.

     (c) At such time or times as the corporation exercises its right to cause a
redemption or exchange pursuant to paragraph 4(a)(I) or 4(a)(II) of this Part E
of this Article Third or to cause a Board Required Exchange, and at the time of
any Significant Transaction Exchange, the corporation shall give notice of such
exchange to the holders of Consumer Services Group Common Stock whose shares are
to be exchanged, by mailing by first-class mail a notice of such exchange (an
"Exchange Notice"), in the case of an exchange at the discretion of the Board of
Directors, not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for
such exchange (the "Exchange Date"), and, in the case of any other required
exchange, as soon as practicable before or after the Exchange Date, in either
case, to their last addresses as they appear upon the corporation's books. Each
such Exchange Notice shall specify 1) the Exchange Date, 2) the Exchange Rate
applicable to, or a description of the consideration to be received in, such
exchange, and 3) any conditions to the occurrence of such exchange as set forth
by the Board of Directors (which conditions may be waived by the Board of
Directors in its sole discretion), and shall state that issuance of certificates
representing the applicable type of Exchange Shares to be received upon exchange
of shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall be upon surrender of
certificates representing such shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock.

     (d) Before any holder of shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock
shall be entitled to receive certificates representing such Exchange Shares,
such holder must surrender, at such office as the corporation shall specify,
certificates for such shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock duly
endorsed to the corporation or in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of
transfer to the Corporation or in blank, unless the corporation shall waive such
requirement. The corporation shall,

                                       B-9
   268

as soon as practicable after such surrender of certificates representing such
shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, issue and deliver, at the office
of the transfer agent representing Exchange Shares, to the holder for whose
account such shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock were so surrendered,
or to such holder's nominee or nominees, certificates representing the number of
Exchange Shares to which such holder shall be entitled, together with the
Fractional Payment, if any.

     (e) From and after any Exchange Date, all rights of a holder of shares of
Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall cease except for the right, upon
surrender of the certificates representing such shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock, to receive certificates representing Exchange Shares
together with a Fractional Payment, if any, as described in paragraphs 5(a) and
5(d) of this Part E of this Article Third and rights to dividends as described
in paragraph 5(b) of this Part E of this Article Third. No holder of a
certificate that immediately prior to the applicable Exchange Date represented
shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall be entitled to receive any
dividend or other distribution with respect to Exchange Shares until surrender
of such holder's certificate for a certificate or certificates representing
Exchange Shares. Upon surrender, the holder shall receive the amount of any
dividends or other distributions (without interest) that were payable with
respect to a record date after the Exchange Date, but that were not paid by
reason of the foregoing with respect to the number of Exchange Shares
represented by the certificate or certificates issued upon such surrender. From
and after an Exchange Date applicable to Consumer Services Group Common Stock,
the corporation shall, however, be entitled to treat certificates for Consumer
Services Group Common Stock that have not yet been surrendered for exchange as
evidencing the ownership of the number of Exchange Shares for which the shares
of Consumer Services Group Common Stock represented by such certificates have
been exchanged, notwithstanding the failure to surrender such certificates.

     (f) If any certificate for Exchange Shares is to be issued in a name other
than that in which the certificate representing shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a
condition of such issuance that the person requesting the issuance pays any
transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates for
such Exchange Shares in a name other than that of the record holder of the
certificate surrendered, or establishes, to the satisfaction of the corporation
or its agent, that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Under no
circumstances shall the corporation be liable to a holder of shares of Consumer
Services Group Common Stock for any Exchange Shares or dividends or
distributions thereon delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable
abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

     (g) At the time an Exchange Notice is delivered with respect to any shares
of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, or at the time of the Exchange Date, if
earlier, the corporation shall have reserved and kept available, solely for the
purpose of issuance upon exchange of the outstanding shares of Consumer Services
Group Common Stock, such number of Exchange Shares as shall be issuable upon the
exchange of the number of shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock
specified or to be specified in the applicable Exchange Notice, provided that
the corporation shall not under any circumstances be precluded from satisfying
its obligation in respect of the exchange of the outstanding shares of Consumer
Services Group Common Stock by delivery of purchased Exchange Shares that are
held in the treasury of the corporation.

6. Liquidation.

     In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment or provision for
payment of the debts and other liabilities of the corporation and subject to the
prior payment in full of the preferential amounts to which any class or series
of Preferred Stock is entitled, (a) as provided in paragraph 6 of Part B of this
Article Third, the holders of the shares of Class A Liberty Media Group Common
Stock and the holders of the shares of Class B Liberty Media Group Common Stock
shall share equally, on a share for share basis, in a percentage of the funds of
the corporation remaining for distribution to its common shareholders equal to
100% multiplied by the average daily ratio (expressed as a decimal) of Y/Z for

                                       B-10
   269

the 20-Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day prior to the date of the
public announcement of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, (b) as
provided in paragraph 6 of Part C of this Article Third, the holders of the
shares of Wireless Group Common Stock shall share in the aggregate in a
percentage of the funds of the corporation remaining for distribution to its
common shareholders equal to 100% multiplied by the average daily ratio
(expressed as a decimal) of W/Z for such 20-Trading Day period, [(c) as provided
in paragraph 6 of Part D of this Article Third, the holders of the shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock shall share in the aggregate in a percentage of the
funds of the corporation remaining for distribution to its common shareholders
equal to 100% multiplied by the average daily ratio (expressed as a decimal) of
B/Z for such 20-Trading Day period], (d) the holders of the shares of Common
Stock shall share in the aggregate in a percentage of the funds of the
corporation remaining for distribution to its common shareholders equal to 100%
multiplied by the average daily ratio (expressed as a decimal) of X/Z for such
20-Trading Day period, (e) the holders of the shares of Consumer Services Group
Common Stock shall share in the aggregate in a percentage of the funds of the
corporation remaining for distribution to its common shareholders equal to 100%
multiplied by the average daily ratio (expressed as a decimal) of C/Z for such
20-Trading Day period, and (f) if applicable, the holders of the shares of any
other class of common shares of the corporation (other than Common Stock,
Consumer Services Group Common Stock, Liberty Media Group Common Stock, Wireless
Group Common Stock or Broadband Group Common Stock), on the basis that may be
set forth in this Certificate with respect to any such shares, shall share in
the aggregate in a percentage of the funds of the corporation remaining for
distribution to its common shareholders equal to 100% multiplied by the average

this Article Third. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or series of
related transactions that results in all of the assets and liabilities included

Services Group Subsidiaries (and no other material assets or liabilities) to the
holders of the outstanding Consumer Services Group Common Stock shall not

the corporation for purposes of this paragraph 6 of this Part E of this Article
Third, but shall be subject to paragraph 4 of this Part E of this Article Third.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or series of related transactions
that results in all of the assets and liabilities included in Liberty Media

paragraph 5(a) of Part B of this Article Third), and the distribution of such
Liberty Media Group Subsidiaries (and no other material assets or liabilities)
to the holders of the outstanding Liberty Media Group Common Stock shall not
constitute a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the corporation for purposes of this paragraph 6 of this Part E of this Article

results in all of the assets and liabilities included in the Wireless Group
being held by one or more Wireless Group Subsidiaries, and the distribution of
some or all of the shares of such Wireless Group Subsidiaries (and no other
material assets or liabilities) to the holders of the outstanding Wireless Group
Common Stock shall not constitute a voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the corporation for purposes of this paragraph 6 of
this Part E of this Article Third, but shall be subject to paragraph 4 of Part C
of this Article Third. [Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or series
of related transactions that results in all of the assets and liabilities
included in the Broadband Group being held by one or more Broadband Group
Subsidiaries, and the distribution of some or all of the shares of such
Broadband Group Subsidiaries (and no other material assets or liabilities) to
the holders of the outstanding Broadband Group Common Stock shall not constitute
a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
corporation for purposes of this paragraph 6 of this Part E of this Article
Third, but shall be subject to paragraph 4 of Part D of this Article Third.]

7. Determinations by the Board of Directors.

     Any determinations made by the Board of Directors under any provision of
this Part E of this Article Third shall be final and binding on all shareholders
of the corporation, except as may otherwise be required by law. The corporation
shall prepare a statement of any determination by the Board of Directors,
respecting the fair market value of any properties, assets or securities, and
shall file such statement with the Secretary of the corporation.

8. Adjustment of the Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction.

     (a) The denominator of the Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction
shall be adjusted from time to time as deemed appropriate by the Board of
Directors (i) to reflect subdivisions (by stock split or otherwise) and
combinations (by reverse stock split or otherwise) of Consumer Services Group
Common Stock and stock dividends payable in shares of Consumer Services Group
Common Stock, (ii) to reflect the fair market value of contributions or
allocations by the corporation of cash or property or other assets or
liabilities from the Common Stock Group(C) to the Consumer Services Group (or
vice versa), or of cash or property or other assets or liabilities of the Common
Stock Group(C) to, or for the benefit of, employees of the Consumer Services
Group in connection with employee benefit plans or arrangements of the
corporation or any of its subsidiaries (or vice versa), (iii) to reflect the
number of shares of capital stock of the corporation contributed to, or for the
benefit of, employees of the Consumer Services Group in connection with benefit
plans or arrangements of the corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) to
reflect repurchases by the corporation of shares of Consumer Services Group
Common Stock for the account of the Consumer Services Group, (v) to reflect
issuances of Consumer Services Group Common Stock for the account of the
Consumer Services Group, (vi) to reflect dividends or other distributions to
holders of the Consumer Services Group Common Stock to the extent no payment is
made to the Common Stock Group(C), and (vii) under such other circumstances as
the Board of Directors determines appropriate to reflect the economic substance
of any other event or circumstance, provided that, in each case, the adjustment
shall be made in a manner that is fair and equitable to holders of Common Stock
and Consumer Services Group Common Stock (and intended to reflect the relative
deemed economic ownership interest, if any, of the Common Stock Group(C) in the
Broadband Group). Any adjustment made by the Board of Directors pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall, subject to the foregoing, be at the sole discretion of
the Board of Directors, and all such determinations shall be final and binding
on all shareholders of the corporation. For purposes of this paragraph 8 of this
Part E of this Article Third, the consideration paid by the Common Stock
Group(C) to acquire any assets or other property or contributed or allocated to
the Consumer Services Group shall be presumed to be the "fair market value" as
of its acquisition.

     (b) Without duplication of any adjustment pursuant to paragraph 8(a) of
this Part E of this Article Third, in the event that the corporation shall issue
shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock for the account of the Consumer
Services Group, then the denominator of the

                                       B-12
   271

Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction shall be increased by the number of
shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock so issued.

     (c) Without duplication of any adjustment pursuant to paragraph 8(a) of
this Part E of this Article Third, if, in connection with any share issuance
described in paragraph 8(b) of this Part E of this Article Third, or otherwise,
the corporation contributes or allocates cash or other property or assets from
the Common Stock Group(C) to the Consumer Services Group, the denominator of the
Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction shall be increased (or further
increased) by an amount obtained by dividing (i) the fair market value of such
cash, property or assets (as determined by the Board of Directors) by (ii) the
net per share offering price of the Consumer Services Group Common Stock.

corporation therein, other than (a) the Consumer Services Group Allocated
Portion of the Consumer Services Group, (b) any businesses, assets or

otherwise) of the corporation and its Subsidiaries primarily related to the

Fraction and any amount payable to the Common Stock Group(C) in such manner as
the Board of Directors determines to be appropriate.

     "Consumer Services Group Available Dividend Amount" shall mean, as of any
date, the Consumer Services Group Allocated Portion of the excess of (a) the

action of the Board of Directors) has transferred to stated capital specifically
in respect of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, minus (c) all reductions
from such sums set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above as have been
effected in a manner permitted by law; provided, however, that, in the event
that the law governing the corporation changes from that governing the
corporation on the date the adoption of the Amendment to this Certificate
pursuant to which the Consumer Services Group Common Stock was authorized
(whether because of amendment of the applicable law or because of a change in
the jurisdiction of incorporation of the corporation through merger or
otherwise), the Consumer Services Group Available Dividend Amount shall mean the
amount of dividends, as determined by the Board of Directors, that could be paid
by a corporation (governed under such applicable law) having the assets and
liabilities of the Consumer Services Group, an amount of outstanding common
stock (and having an aggregate par value) equal to the amount (and aggregate par
value) of the outstanding Consumer Services Group Common Stock and of each class

(or that would have been payable but for the utilization of tax benefits
attributable to the Common Stock Group(C), Liberty Media Group, the Wireless
Group [or the Broadband Group]), (b) any transaction costs borne by the Common
Stock Group(C) in connection with such Disposition, including, without

                                       B-14
   273

otherwise) of the Consumer Services Group borne by the Common Stock Group(C) in
connection with such Disposition, including, without limitation, any indemnity
or guarantee obligations incurred by the Common Stock Group(C) in connection
with the Disposition or any liabilities assumed by the Common Stock Group(C) for
future purchase price adjustments, and (d) any preferential amounts, accumulated
and unpaid dividends and other obligations in respect of Preferred Stock
attributed to the Consumer Services Group. To the extent the proceeds of any
Disposition include any securities or other property other than cash, the Board
of Directors shall determine the value of such securities or property; provided

Disposition.

joint venture or otherwise) to the business conducted with such properties or

Directors determines is primarily engaged or proposes to engage primarily in one
or more businesses similar or complementary to the businesses conducted by the

Board of Directors based upon such appraisals or valuation reports of such

or any such class of Liberty Media Group Common Stock in shares of Common Stock,
Consumer Services Group Common Stock, Wireless Group Common Stock, [Broadband

combination, dividend or distribution.

     "Person" shall mean any individual, corporation, partnership, limited
liability company, joint venture, association, joint stock company, trust,
unincorporated organization, government or agency or political subdivision
thereof, or other entity, whether acting in an individual, fiduciary or other
capacity.

     "Qualifying Subsidiary" of a Person shall mean a Subsidiary of such Person
in which such Person's ownership and voting interest is sufficient to satisfy
the ownership and voting requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, and the regulations thereunder, for a distribution of such Person's
interest in such Subsidiary to the holders of Consumer Services Group Common
Stock and, in the event that the Consumer Services Group Allocation Fraction is
less than one, the holders of Common Stock (or any such securities into which
the Consumer Services Group Common Stock

                                       B-16

or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (including
enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial or regulatory
decision, determination or pronouncement) which amendment, clarification or
change is effective, announced, released, promulgated or issued on or after the
date of initial issuance of the Consumer Services Group Common Stock, regardless
of whether such amendment, clarification or change is issued to or in connection
with a proceeding involving the corporation, the Common Stock Group(C) or the
Consumer Services Group and whether or not subject to appeal, there is more than
an insubstantial risk that:

          (i) for tax purposes, any issuance of Consumer Services Group Common
     Stock would be treated as a sale or other taxable disposition by the
     corporation or any of its Subsidiaries of any of the assets, operations or
     relevant subsidiaries to which the Consumer Services Group Common Stock
     relates,

          (ii) the existence of the Consumer Services Group Common Stock would
     subject the corporation, its Subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their
     respective successors or shareholders to the imposition of tax or to other
     adverse tax consequences, or

          (iii) for tax purposes, either Common Stock or Consumer Services Group
     Common Stock is not or, at any time in the future, will not be treated
     solely as common stock of the corporation.

[NOTE: THE AT&T GROUPS CAPITAL STOCK COMMITTEE WILL BE ADDED TO THE BY-LAW
PROVISION ESTABLISHING STANDING COMMITTEES SUCH AS THE AUDIT COMMITTEE AND THE
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE.]

     AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee.  The board of directors shall form an
AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee, the members of which shall be selected by
the board of directors of the Corporation. The board of directors of the
Corporation shall delegate to the AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee the
authority to, and the AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee will have the
authority to, (i) interpret, make determinations under, and oversee the
implementation of the policies set forth in the Policy Statement Regarding AT&T
Groups Tracking Stock Matters; (ii) review the policies, programs and practices
of the Corporation relating to (a) the business and financial relationships
between the Corporation or any of its units and each of AT&T Broadband Group and
AT&T Consumer Services Group, and (b) any matters arising in connection
therewith, all to the extent the AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee may deem
appropriate; and (iii) recommend such changes in such policies, programs and
practices as the AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee may deem appropriate. In
performing this function, the AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee's role shall
not be to make decisions concerning matters referred to its attention, but,

made. The AT&T Groups Capital Stock Committee shall have and may exercise such
other powers, authority and responsibilities as may be determined from time to
time by the board of directors of the Corporation.

                                   AT&T CORP.
                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS

                           POLICY STATEMENT REGARDING
                         GROUPS TRACKING STOCK MATTERS

1. GENERAL POLICY.  It is the policy of the Board of Directors (the "BOARD") of
AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") that:

          (a) all material matters as to which the holders of the Common Stock
     and the holders of Broadband Group Common Stock and/or Consumer Services
     Group Common Stock may have potentially divergent interests shall be
     resolved in a manner that the Board (or the Groups Capital Stock Committee)
     determines to be in the best interests of AT&T and all of its common
     shareholders as a whole, after giving fair consideration to the potentially
     divergent interests and all other relevant interests of the holders of the
     separate classes of common stock of AT&T; and

          (b) a process of fair dealing will govern the relationship between the
     Common Stock Group, the Broadband Group and the Consumer Services Group and
     the means by which the terms of any material transaction between them will
     be determined.

2. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE GROUPS.

     AT&T will seek to manage the Common Stock Group, the Broadband Group and
the Consumer Services Group in a manner designed to maximize the operations,
unique assets and value of all Groups, and with complementary deployments of
capital and facilities.

          (a) General.  Subject to special arrangements or existing commercial
     arrangements in effect at the time this policy statement is adopted, except
     as otherwise provided in this policy statement, all material commercial
     transactions between the Common Stock Group, the Broadband Group and the
     Consumer Services Group will be on commercially reasonable terms taken as a
     whole and will be subject to the review and approval of the Groups Capital
     Stock Committee.

          (b) Inter-group Borrowing.  The Groups may make loans to each other on
     terms and conditions substantially equivalent to the interest rates and
     terms and conditions that the groups would be able to obtain from third
     parties without the benefit of support or guarantee by AT&T.

          (c) Allocation of Corporate Overhead and Support Services.  With
     respect to shared corporate services that arise as a result of being part
     of a combined entity (e.g., securities filing and financial reporting
     services), costs relating to such services will be directly attributed to
     the Group utilizing such services, and to the extent such costs are not
     directly attributable, allocated between the Groups on a fair and
     reasonable basis as determined by the Board. With respect to other support
     services (e.g., billing and purchasing services), while the Groups will
     seek to obtain for the combined Groups the lowest aggregate cost for all
     such services, each Group will be entitled to procure such services from
     the other Groups or from third parties.

          (d) Marketing of Services.  Each Group will work collaboratively with
     the other Groups to understand and take into account the other's expansion,
     acquisition, deployment, marketing and sales plans, with the goal of
     minimizing overlaps and conflicts between the Groups.

          (e) No Inter-Group Interest in Common Stock Group.  The Broadband
     Group and the Consumer Services Group shall not acquire an Inter-Group
     Interest in the Common Stock Group.

3. CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES.  The Board will allocate any business opportunities
and operations, any acquired assets and businesses and any assumed liabilities
between the Groups, in whole or in part, as it considers to be in the best
interests of AT&T and its shareholders as a whole and as contemplated by the
provisions of these policies. To the extent a business opportunity or operation,
an acquired asset or business, or an assumed liability would be suitable to be
undertaken by or allocated to more than one Group, it will be allocated by the
Board in its business judgment or in accordance with procedures adopted by the
Board from time to time to ensure that decisions will be made in the best
interests of AT&T and its shareholders as a whole. Any such allocation may
involve the consideration of a number of factors that the Board determines to be
relevant, including, without limitation, whether the business opportunity or
operation, the acquired asset or business, or the assumed liability is
principally within the existing scope of a Group's business and whether a Group
is better positioned to undertake or have allocated to it such business
opportunity or operation, acquired assets or business or assumed liability.

4. DIVIDEND POLICY.  Subject to the limitations set forth in the Charter,
including any preferential rights of any series of preferred stock of AT&T, and
to the limitations of applicable law, holders of shares of Common Stock,
Broadband Group Common Stock and/or Consumer Services Group Common Stock will be
entitled to receive dividends on such stock when, as and if authorized and
declared by the Board. The payment of dividends on the Common Stock will be a
business decision to be made by the Board from time to time based upon the
results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and future
prospects of AT&T and such other factors as the Board considers relevant.
Payment of dividends on the Common Stock may be restricted by loan agreements,
indentures and other transactions entered into by AT&T from time to time.

     With respect to the Broadband Group Common Stock, AT&T does not expect to
pay any dividends on shares of Broadband Group Common Stock for the foreseeable
future. If and when the Board does determine to pay any dividends on shares of
Broadband Group Common Stock, any such determination will also be subject to
factors similar to those described above with respect to the payment of
dividends on the Common Stock.

     With respect to the Consumer Services Group Common Stock, it is currently
expected that one-third of the current regular dividend payable on the Common
Stock will be allocated to the Common Stock and that two-thirds of that dividend
will be allocated to the Consumer Services Group Common Stock. The declaration
of dividends by AT&T and the amount thereof will, however, be in the discretion
of the Board and will depend upon each of our groups' financial performance, the
dividend policies and capital structures of comparable companies and each
group's ongoing capital needs. If and when the Board does determine to pay any
dividends on shares of Consumer Services Group Common Stock, any such
determination will also be subject to factors similar to those described above
with respect to the payment of dividends on the Common Stock.

5. GROUPS CAPITAL STOCK COMMITTEE.  AT&T's by-laws will provide for a standing
committee of the Board to be known as the Groups Capital Stock Committee. The
Groups Capital Stock Committee will have and exercise such powers, authority and
responsibilities as the Board may delegate to such Committee, which will
initially include authority to (a) interpret, make determinations under, and
oversee the implementation of these policies, other than as they relate to
dividends, with respect to which all determinations will be made solely by the
Board, (b) adopt additional general policies governing the relationship between
the Groups, and (c) engage the services of accountants, investment bankers,
appraisers, attorneys and other service providers to assist it in discharging
its duties. In making determinations in connection with these policies, the
members of the Board and the Groups Capital Stock Committee will act in a
fiduciary capacity and pursuant to legal guidance concerning their respective
obligations under applicable law. The delegation of responsibilities to the
Groups Capital Stock Committee will be subject to such changes as may be
determined by the Board.

                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     AT&T Broadband Group is an integrated business of AT&T and not a
stand-alone entity. The combined financial statements included herein reflect
the results of the proposed AT&T Broadband Group tracking stock. Separate
financial statements are not required to be filed for tracking stocks. However,
the financial statements have been provided as an exhibit to this document to
provide additional disclosures to investors to allow them to assess the
financial performance of AT&T Broadband Group. Presenting separate financial
statements for AT&T Broadband Group does not indicate that AT&T has changed
title to any assets or responsibility for any liabilities, and does not purport
to affect the rights of any of AT&T's creditors. Holders of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock do not have claims against the assets of AT&T Broadband Group.
Instead, AT&T Broadband Group shareholders own a separate class of AT&T common
stock that is intended to reflect the financial performance and economic value
of AT&T's broadband businesses.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and
Shareowners of AT&T Corp.:

     In our opinion, the accompanying combined balance sheets and the related
combined statements of operations and changes in combined attributed net assets
and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of AT&T Broadband Group at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2000
and for the ten-month period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These
financial statements are the responsibility of AT&T Broadband Group's
management; our responsibility is to express our opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     AT&T Broadband Group is a fully integrated business unit of AT&T Corp.;
consequently, as indicated in Note 1, these combined financial statements have
been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records
of AT&T Corp. and reflect certain assumptions and allocations. Moreover, as
indicated in Note 1, AT&T Broadband Group relies on AT&T Corp. for
administrative, management and other services. The financial position, results
of operations and cash flows of AT&T Broadband Group could differ from those
that would have resulted had AT&T Broadband Group operated autonomously or as an
entity independent of AT&T Corp. As more fully discussed in Note 1, the combined
financial statements of AT&T Broadband Group should be read in conjunction with
the audited consolidated financial statements of AT&T Corp.

                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   (DOLLARS IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS AND UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     On October 25, 2000, AT&T announced a restructuring plan designed to fully
separate or issue separately tracked stocks intended to reflect the financial
performance and economic value of each of AT&T's four major operating units.
Upon completion of the plan, AT&T Wireless, AT&T Broadband, AT&T Business and
AT&T Consumer will all be represented by asset-based or tracking stocks. The
accompanying combined financial statements reflect the business of AT&T
Broadband Group.

     AT&T Broadband Group is a fully integrated business unit of AT&T and is not
a separate legal entity. The AT&T Broadband Group consists primarily of the
assets, liabilities and business of AT&T Broadband, LLC (formerly
Tele-Communications, Inc. ("TCI")) and MediaOne Group, Inc. ("MediaOne"), and
includes At Home Corporation ("Excite@Home"). AT&T Broadband, LLC ("ATTBLLC")
and MediaOne are both separate subsidiaries of AT&T. The AT&T Broadband Group is
primarily engaged in the construction, acquisition, ownership and operation of
cable television systems throughout the United States. AT&T Broadband Group
offers a variety of services through its cable broadband network, including
traditional analog video and advanced services such as digital video service,
high-speed cable Internet service and broadband telephony service.

     On March 9, 1999, AT&T acquired TCI in a merger (the "TCI Merger") which
was attributed to AT&T Broadband Group. The results of operations, financial
position, changes in combined attributed net assets and cash flows of the
business of AT&T Broadband, LLC which are included in AT&T Broadband Group have
been included since March 1, 1999, the deemed effective date of the TCI Merger
for accounting purposes. The impact of the results from March 1 through March 9,
1999 were deemed immaterial to the combined results. On June 15, 2000 AT&T
acquired MediaOne which was attributed to AT&T Broadband Group. The results of
operations, financial position, changes in combined attributed net assets and
cash flows of the businesses of MediaOne which are included in AT&T Broadband
Group have been included since June 15, 2000. See note 4.

     The combined financial statements of AT&T Broadband Group are prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The combined financial
statements of AT&T Broadband Group reflect the assets, liabilities, revenue and
expenses directly attributable to AT&T Broadband Group, as well as allocations
deemed reasonable by management, to present the results of operations, financial
position, changes in combined attributed net assets, and cash flows of AT&T
Broadband Group on a stand-alone basis. The allocation methodologies have been
described within the notes to the combined financial statements where
appropriate, and management considers the allocations to be reasonable. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions within the AT&T Broadband
Group have been eliminated. The financial information included herein may not
necessarily reflect the combined results of operations, financial position,
changes in combined attributed net assets and cash flows of AT&T Broadband Group
in the future or what they would have been had AT&T Broadband Group been a
separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Earnings per share
disclosure has not been presented as AT&T Broadband Group is a business unit of
AT&T and earnings per share data is not considered meaningful. The combined
financial statements of AT&T Broadband Group should be read in conjunction with
AT&T's Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2000.

     Debt attributed to AT&T Broadband Group includes the third party
obligations of AT&T Broadband LLC (formerly Tele-Communications, Inc.) and
MediaOne Group, Inc. and all

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

monetization debt. Additional intercompany debt has been allocated to AT&T
Broadband Group to achieve a total debt level based on several factors including
prospective financing requirements, desired standalone credit profile, working
capital and capital expenditure requirements, expected sources of future
deleveraging, and comparable company profiles. Increases in historical
intercompany debt are based on historical cash flows. Such cash outflows include
capital expenditures and investments in cable companies, offset by cash flow
from operations. By the time AT&T's restructuring activities are complete, the
then intercompany debt balance of AT&T Broadband Group will be replaced with an
equal amount of external debt in a manner to be determined. The historical
interest expense on the allocated intercompany debt was calculated based on a
rate intended to be equivalent to the rate AT&T Broadband Group would receive if
it were a stand-alone entity. Due to AT&T's deleveraging activities, the $28.4
billion of debt at December 31, 2000 is expected to be significantly lower in
the future. AT&T's expected deleveraging activities that relate to AT&T
Broadband Group include, but may not be limited, to the following: the announced
sale of rural cable systems which is expected to result in gross cash proceeds
of $3.3 billion and up to $0.5 billion of Charter Communications common stock;
any proceeds that may result from the exercise of AT&T's registration rights in
Time Warner Entertainment; and any proceeds from the announced sale of 30
million shares of Cablevision Systems Corp. Finally, AT&T has made no final
determination as to the allocation of proceeds from the sale of shares of AT&T
Broadband Group tracking stock, between AT&T Communications Services and AT&T
Broadband Group.

     AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of the AT&T Broadband
Group. Substantially all of the AT&T Broadband Group's cash balances are swept
to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T. Transfers
of cash to and from AT&T, after giving consideration to the debt allocation
methodology, are reflected as a component of combined attributed net assets. Net
transfers to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash. AT&T's capital
contributions for purchase business combinations and initial investments in
joint ventures and partnerships which AT&T attributed to AT&T Broadband Group
have been treated as noncash transactions.

     General corporate overhead related to AT&T's corporate headquarters and
common support divisions has been allocated to AT&T Broadband Group as it was
not deemed practicable to specifically identify such common costs to AT&T
Broadband Group. The allocation of corporate overhead is divided into an
allocation of shared services (e.g., payroll and finance) and other corporate
overhead. Costs of shared services are allocated to AT&T Broadband Group based
on transaction based prices. Other corporate overhead is allocated to AT&T
Broadband Group based on the ratio of AT&T Broadband Group's external costs and
expenses adjusted for any functions AT&T Broadband Group performs on its own.
The costs of these services charged to AT&T Broadband Group are not necessarily
indicative of the costs that would have been incurred if AT&T Broadband Group
had performed these functions entirely as a stand-alone entity, nor are they
indicative of costs that will be charged or incurred in the future. However,
management believes such allocations are reasonable.

     Consolidated income tax provisions or benefits, related tax payments or
refunds, and deferred tax balances of AT&T have been allocated to AT&T Broadband
Group based principally on the taxable income and tax credits directly
attributable to AT&T Broadband Group, essentially a stand-alone presentation.
These allocations reflect AT&T Broadband Group's contribution to AT&T's
consolidated taxable income and the consolidated tax liability and tax credit
position. Prior to the issuance of any shares of AT&T Broadband Group's tracking
stock, AT&T and AT&T Broadband Group have

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

entered into a tax sharing agreement that will provide for tax sharing payments
based on the tax expense or tax benefits of a hypothetical affiliated group
consisting of AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. Based
on this agreement, the consolidated tax liability before credits will be
allocated between the groups, based on each group's contribution to consolidated
taxable income of the hypothetical group. Consolidated tax credits of the
hypothetical group will be allocated between groups based on each group's
contribution to each tax credit.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Revenue for customer fees, equipment rental, advertising, and pay-per-view
programming is recognized in the period the services are delivered. Installation
revenue is recognized in the period the installation services are provided to
the extent of direct selling costs. Any remaining amount is deferred and
recognized over the estimated average period customers are expected to remain
connected to the cable distribution system.

     During 2000, AT&T Broadband Group adopted Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB No. 101"), "Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements." The adoption of SAB No. 101 did not have a
material impact on combined results of operations or financial condition.

  ADVERTISING AND PROMOTIONAL COSTS

     Advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and
promotional expenses were $325, and $138 for the year ended December 31, 2000
and the ten months ended December 31, 1999, respectively.

  INCOME TAXES

     AT&T Broadband Group is not a separate taxable entity for federal and state
income tax purposes and its results of operations are included in the
consolidated federal and state income tax returns of AT&T and its affiliates.
The provision for income taxes is based on AT&T Broadband Group's contribution
to the overall income tax liability or benefit of AT&T and its affiliates.

  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

     Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."
AT&T Broadband Group follows the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation."

  CASH EQUIVALENTS

     All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or
less are considered to be cash equivalents.

  INVESTMENTS

     Investments in which AT&T Broadband Group exercises significant influence,
but does not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
Under the equity method, investments are stated at cost and are adjusted for
AT&T Broadband Group's subsequent

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

contributions and share of earnings, losses and distributions. The excess of the
investment over the underlying book value of the investee's net assets is being
amortized over periods ranging from 25 to 40 years. Investments in which AT&T
Broadband Group has no significant influence over the investee are accounted for
under the cost method of accounting. Under the cost method, investments are
stated at cost and earnings are recognized to the extent distributions are
received from the accumulated earnings of the investee. Distributions in excess
of accumulated earnings are recognized as a reduction of the investment balance.

     Marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and are
carried at fair market value with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax,
included in combined attributed net assets as a component of other comprehensive
income. The fair market value of these securities is based on quoted market
prices.

  PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

     Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Construction costs, labor
and applicable overhead related to installations and interest during
construction are capitalized.

     Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis using estimated useful
lives of 3 to 15 years for distribution systems and 3 to 40 years for support
equipment and buildings.

     Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations, and additions and
replacements are capitalized. At the time of ordinary retirements, sales or
other dispositions of property, the original cost and cost of removal of such
property are charged to accumulated depreciation, and salvage, if any, is
credited thereto. Gains or losses are only recognized in connection with the
sales of properties in their entirety.

  FRANCHISE COSTS

     Franchise costs include the value attributed to agreements with local
authorities that allow access to homes in cable service areas acquired in
connection with a business combination. Such amounts are generally amortized on
a straight-line basis over 40 years. Costs incurred by the AT&T Broadband Group
in negotiating and renewing franchise agreements are amortized on a
straight-line basis over the life of the franchise, generally 10 to 20 years.

  GOODWILL

     Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net
assets acquired in business combinations accounted for as purchases. Goodwill is
amortized on a straight-line basis over 7 to 40 years.

  SOFTWARE CAPITALIZATION

     Certain direct development costs associated with internal-use software are
capitalized, including external direct costs of material and services, and
payroll costs for employees devoting time to the software projects. Such costs
are included within other assets and are amortized over a period not to exceed
five years beginning when the asset is substantially ready for use. Costs
incurred during the preliminary project stage, as well as maintenance and
training costs, are expensed as incurred. Initial operating-system software
costs are capitalized and amortized over the life of the associated hardware.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

  VALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

     Long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment, franchise costs,
goodwill, investments and software are reviewed for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
If the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the
carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between
the fair value and carrying value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are
carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying value or fair value
less cost to sell. In addition, in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
("APB") Opinion No. 17, "Intangible assets," the amortization periods are
evaluated to determine whether events or circumstances warrant revised
amortization periods.

  DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     AT&T Broadband Group uses various financial instruments, including
derivative financial instruments, for purposes other than trading. Derivative
financial instruments are not used for speculative purposes. Derivatives, used
as part of the risk-management strategy, are designated at inception as a hedge
and measured for effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis.
Interest rate differentials associated with interest rate swaps used to hedge
debt obligations are recorded as an adjustment to interest payable or receivable
with the offset to interest expense over the life of the swaps. If an interest
rate swap agreement is terminated, the gain or loss is deferred and amortized
over the remaining life of the liability. Purchased and written options
("Collars") are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of
tax, being recorded within other comprehensive income as a component of combined
attributed net assets. Cash flows from financial instruments are classified in
the combined statements of cash flows under the same categories as the cash
flows from the related assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions.

  CASH FLOWS

     For purposes of the combined statements of cash flows, all transactions
between AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T, except for purchase business combinations
and initial investments in joint ventures and partnerships which were funded by
AT&T and contributed by AT&T to AT&T Broadband Group, have been accounted for as
having been settled in cash at the time the transaction was recorded by AT&T
Broadband Group.

  USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and revenue and expenses during the period reported. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for
certain items such as long-term contracts, allowance for doubtful accounts,
depreciation and amortization, employee benefit plans, taxes, restructuring
reserves, impairment and contingencies.

  CONCENTRATIONS

     As of December 31, 2000, except for 80% of the billing services being
provided by a single vendor (see note 14), AT&T Broadband Group does not have

4. MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS, VENTURES, DISPOSITIONS AND EXCHANGES

  MERGER WITH TELE-COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

     The AT&T Broadband Group was created upon the merger of TCI with a
subsidiary of AT&T. The TCI Merger was completed on March 9, 1999, in an
all-stock transaction valued at approximately $52 billion. TCI simultaneously
combined its Liberty Media Group programming business with its TCI Ventures
Group technology investments business, forming Liberty Media Group ("LMG"). In
connection with the TCI Merger, AT&T issued a separate tracking stock in
exchange for the TCI Liberty Media Group and TCI Ventures Group tracking shares
previously outstanding. LMG is excluded from AT&T Broadband Group.

     The TCI Merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting,
accordingly, AT&T recorded the assets and liabilities of TCI at their fair
values and TCI results have been included since March 1, 1999, the deemed
effective date of the merger. Approximately $20 billion of the purchase price of
$52 billion was attributed to franchise costs and is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 40 years. Franchise costs represent the value
attributable to the agreements with local franchise authorities that allow
access to homes in the broadband service areas. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," AT&T recorded an approximate $13 billion deferred
tax liability in connection with this franchise intangible, which is also
included in franchise costs. AT&T does not expect that this deferred tax
liability will ever be paid. This deferred tax liability is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 40 years and is included in the provision for income
taxes. Also included in the $52 billion purchase price was approximately $11
billion related to nonconsolidated investments, approximately $5 billion related
to property, plant and equipment, approximately $11 billion of long-term debt,
and $7 billion related to other net liabilities. In addition, $34 billion was
attributed to the investment in LMG which is excluded from the AT&T Broadband
Group.

  MERGER WITH MEDIAONE

     On June 15, 2000, AT&T completed a merger with MediaOne in a cash and stock
transaction valued at approximately $45 billion (the "MediaOne Merger"). The
AT&T shares had an aggregate market value of approximately $21 billion and cash
payments totaled approximately $24 billion.

     The MediaOne Merger was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting; accordingly the results of MediaOne have been included in the
accompanying combined financial statements since the date of acquisition.
Approximately $16 billion of the purchase price of $45 billion has been
attributed to franchise costs and is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over 40 years. Also included in the $45 billion purchase price was approximately
$22 billion related to nonconsolidated investments, including investments in TWE
and Vodafone Group, plc, approximately $5 billion related to property, plant and
equipment, and $7 billion of other net assets. In addition, included was
approximately $14 billion in deferred income tax liabilities, approximately $10
billion attributable to

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

debt and approximately $1 billion of minority interest. AT&T did not attribute
$7 billion of cash acquired in the MediaOne merger to AT&T Broadband Group. The
purchase price resulted in preliminary goodwill of $20 billion, which is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years. Refinements to the allocation
of purchase price may be made in future periods as the related fair value
appraisals of certain assets and liabilities are finalized.

  PRO FORMA RESULTS

     Following is a summary of the pro forma results of AT&T Broadband Group as
if the MediaOne Merger had closed effective March 1, 1999:



                                                                       TEN MONTHS

Pro forma data may not be indicative of the results that would have been
obtained had the events actually occurred at the beginning of the periods
presented, nor does it intend to be a projection of future results.

     Excite@Home.  On August 28, 2000, AT&T and Excite@Home announced
shareholder approval of a new board of directors and governance structure for
Excite@Home and completion of the extension of distribution contracts with AT&T,
Cox Communications, Inc. ("Cox") and Comcast Corporation ("Comcast"). In
connection with the above described announcement, AT&T was given the right to
designate six of the 11 Excite@Home board members. In addition, Excite@Home
converted approximately 50 million shares of Excite@Home's Series A common stock
held by AT&T into Series B shares, each of which has 10 votes. As a result of
these governance changes, AT&T gained a controlling financial interest and AT&T
Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC, began consolidating Excite@Home's results upon
the closing of the transaction on September 1, 2000, at which time ATTBLLC had
an approximate 24% economic interest and 74% voting interest. As of December 31,
2000, ATBLLC had, on a fully diluted basis, an approximate 23% economic interest
and 74% voting interest in Excite@Home. Excite@Home has been attributed to AT&T
Broadband Group.

     In exchange for Cox and Comcast relinquishing their rights under the
shareholder agreement, AT&T granted put options to Cox and Comcast on a combined
total of 60.4 million shares of Excite@Home Series A common stock. The put
options provide Cox and Comcast with the right to convert their Excite@Home
shares into either AT&T stock or cash at their option, at any time between
January 1, 2001 and June 4, 2002, at the higher of (i) $48 per share or (ii) the
30 day average trading price at the time of exercise (beginning 15 trading days
prior to the exercise date and ending 15 days after the exercise date). If the
average price is above $48 per share, the number of Excite@Home shares that AT&T
would acquire would be reduced proportionately from the original 60.4 million
shares. Accordingly, the maximum amount AT&T would be required to pay in cash or
stock is approximately $2,900 based on the $48 strike price. The obligation
under these put options has been attributed to AT&T Broadband Group and is
reflected in current liabilities on the balance sheet at the fair value of the
put options. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the put
options are recorded as a component of other income (expense). For 2000, changes
in the

                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

fair value of the put options resulted in a pre-tax expense of $537. Subsequent
to December 31, 2000, Cox and Comcast exercised their put options electing to
receive AT&T Common shares. See note 17.

     Also, in connection with the extension of certain distribution agreements
through 2008, AT&T obtained the right to purchase up to approximately 25 million
Excite@Home Series A shares and 25 million Series B shares. In addition, Cox and
Comcast each will receive new warrants to purchase two Series A shares for each
home their respective cable systems pass. Such warrants will vest in
installments every six months beginning in June 2001, and be fully vested by
June 2006, if Cox and Comcast elect to continue their extended non-exclusive
distribution agreements through that period.

     The consolidation of Excite@Home resulted in minority interest of
approximately $2,200, goodwill of approximately $2,400, short-term liabilities
of approximately $2,400 (including an initial put option liability), other net
assets of approximately $1,200 and the removal of the investment in Excite@Home
of approximately $1,900.

     Cox Communications, Inc.  On March 15, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group, through
ATTBLLC, received 50.3 million shares of AT&T common stock held by Cox in
exchange for an entity owning cable television systems serving approximately
312,000 customers and certain other net assets. The AT&T common stock received
in such transaction has been included in combined attributed net assets.
Specifically, AT&T Broadband Group exchanged $1,088 of investments, $878 of
franchise costs and $503 of other net assets for stock valued at $2,658 on March
15, 2000. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain of $189.

     Lenfest Communications, Inc.  On January 18, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group,
through ATTBLLC, sold its ownership interest in Lenfest Communications, Inc., to
a subsidiary of Comcast. In connection with the sale, AT&T Broadband Group
received 47.3 million shares of Comcast Class Special A common stock. The
transaction resulted in a pretax gain of $224.

  ACQUISITION-RELATED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

     As a result of an evaluation of recent changes in our industry and the
views of regulatory authorities, AT&T Broadband Group expects that the
amortization period for all franchise costs and goodwill associated with newly
acquired cable operations will not exceed 25 years.

5. ASSET IMPAIRMENT, RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

     During 2000, AT&T Broadband Group recorded $6,270 of asset impairment,
restructuring and other charges which included $6,179 of asset impairment
charges related to Excite@Home.

     The charges related to Excite@Home include $4,609 in asset impairment
charges taken by Excite@Home associated with the goodwill impairment from
various acquisitions and a related goodwill impairment of $1,570 recorded by
AT&T Broadband Group associated with its acquisition goodwill of Excite@Home.

     The impairments resulted from the deterioration of the market conditions
and market valuations of Internet-related companies during the fourth quarter of
2000, which caused Excite@Home to conclude that intangible assets related to
their acquisitions of Internet-related companies may not be recoverable. In
accordance with SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of", Excite@Home conducted a detailed
assessment of the recoverability of the carrying amounts of acquired intangible
assets. This assessment resulted in a determination that certain acquired
intangible assets, including goodwill, related to these acquisitions

                              AT&T BROADBAND GROUP
                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

were impaired as of December 31, 2000. As a result, AT&T Broadband Group
recorded impairment charges of $4,609 in December 2000, representing the excess
of the carrying amount of the impaired assets over their fair value.

     The review for impairment included a review of publicly-traded Internet
companies that are comparable to the companies that Excite@Home acquired. These
companies experienced a substantial decline in stock price and market
capitalization during the fourth quarter of 2000.

     Excite@Home also reviewed the business climate for Internet advertising and
web-based infrastructure companies as of December 31, 2000, and observed the
following: (1) investor and consumer enthusiasm for the Internet sector severely
deteriorated during the fourth quarter of 2000; (2) many Internet companies,
including those acquired by Excite@Home, experienced significant decelerations
in their growth both as a result of economic conditions and due to
Internet-sector specific issues such as competition and the weakening of the
Internet advertising market; and (3) funding sources for Internet-based consumer
businesses, which require considerable amounts of capital, had substantially
evaporated as of December 31, 2000. As a result, Excite@Home concluded that
fundamental, permanent and significant adverse changes had occurred during the
fourth quarter of 2000 in the business climate for companies providing Internet
advertising and other web-based services.

     In addition, Excite@Home reviewed operating and cash flow projections that
existed at the time Excite@Home made the acquisitions and that were used as a
basis upon which the decisions to complete acquisition were made. These
operating and cash flow projections indicated that the acquired companies, over
their useful lives, would be profitable and generate positive cash flows. The
operating and cash flow projections were compared to operating results after the
date of the acquisitions through December 31, 2000, as well as to projected
operating results for 2001. These comparisons indicated that certain
acquisitions generated operating and cash flow losses through the end of 2000,
and were projected to continue generating operating and cash flow losses for the
foreseeable future.

     As a result of these factors, Excite@Home determined that the intangible
assets related to the acquisitions might not be recoverable and conducted
impairment tests.

     Generally, the impairment tests were performed at an asset group level
corresponding to the lowest level at which cash flows independent of other
assets could be identified. Each asset group consisted of the goodwill and
acquired identifiable intangible assets related to a specific acquisition.
Acquired intangible assets were combined for those acquisitions where separately
identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other
groups of assets could not be identified.

     For each of the asset groups to be tested for impairment, Excite@Home
projected undiscounted cash flows over a future projection period of five years,
based on Excite@Home's determination of the current remaining useful lives of
the asset groups, plus an undiscounted terminal period cash flow to reflect
disposition of the entities at the end of their useful lives. Undiscounted
future cash flows were estimated using projected net realizable value in a sales
transaction (undiscounted cash flows during the expected remaining holding
period until disposition were estimated as negligible). The undiscounted future
cash flows were compared to the carrying amount of each asset group and for
those asset groups where the carrying amount exceeded the undiscounted future
cash flows, Excite@Home concluded that the asset group was impaired.

     Excite@Home measured the impairment loss related to impaired asset groups
based on the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeded the
fair value of the asset group.

                              AT&T BROADBAND GROUP
                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Measurement of fair value was based on an analysis by Excite@Home, with
assistance from independent valuation experts, utilizing the best information
available in the circumstances using reasonable and supportable assumptions and
projections, and including the discounted cash flow and market comparison
valuation techniques. The discounted cash flow analysis considered the
likelihood of possible outcomes and was based on Excite@Home's best estimate of
projected future cash flows, including terminal value cash flows expected to
result from the disposition of the asset at the end of its useful life,
discounted at Excite@Home's weighted average cost of capital. Weighted average
cost of capital was based on historical risk premiums required by investors for
companies of Excite@Home's size, industry and capital structure and included
risk factors specific to Excite@Home. The market comparison model represented
Excite@Home's estimate of the prices that a buyer would be willing to pay
currently for similar assets, based on comparable products and services,
customer base, risks, earnings capabilities and other factors.

     Based on the foregoing, Excite@Home recorded an impairment write-down of
$4,609 in aggregate, which was allocated to each asset group based on a
comparison of carrying values and fair values. The impairment write-down within
each asset group was allocated first to goodwill, and if goodwill was reduced to
zero, to identifiable intangible assets in proportion to carrying values.

     Also as a result of the foregoing, AT&T Broadband Group recorded a goodwill
impairment charge associated with the acquisition of ATTBLLC's investment in
Excite@Home. The write-down of ATTBLLC's investment to fair value was similarly
based on independent appraisals, utilizing discounted expected future cash
flows.

     Since AT&T Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC owns approximately 23% of
Excite@Home, 77% of the charge recorded by Excite@Home is not included as an
increase in AT&T Broadband Group's net loss, but rather is eliminated in the
statement of operations as minority interest income (expense).

     In 2000, a $91 charge for restructuring and exit costs was recorded
primarily as part of the integration of MediaOne, the centralization of certain
functions, and the consolidation of call center facilities. The charge for the
year ended December 31, 2000, included termination benefits of $61 associated
with the involuntary separation of about 1,060 employees. Approximately 25% of
the individuals were management employees and 75% were non-management employees.
Approximately 74% of the affected employees have left their positions as of
December 31, 2000. The $91 charge included a loss of $30 recognized on the
disposition of facilities as a result of synergies created by the MediaOne
Merger.

     The following table displays the activity and balances of the restructuring
reserve account from January 1, 2000, to December 31, 2000. There was no

     Deductions reflect cash payments of $45 and noncash utilization of $30.
This cash outlay was funded primarily through cash from operations. Noncash
utilization included the loss on the disposition of facilities.

     During 1999, AT&T Broadband Group recorded $644 of asset impairment,
restructuring and other charges. Such amount included a $594 in-process research
and development charge which reflected the estimated fair value of research and
development projects at AT&T Broadband Group, as of the date of the TCI Merger,
which had not yet reached technological feasibility or that had no alternative
future use. The projects identified related to TCI's efforts to offer voice over
Internet protocol ("IP"), product integration efforts for advanced set-top
devices that would enable AT&T Broadband Group to offer next-generation digital
services, and cost-savings efforts for cable telephony implementation. In
addition, Excite@Home had research and development efforts underway, including
projects to allow for self-provisioning of devices and the development of
next-generation client software, network and back-office infrastructure to
enable a variety of network devices, and improved design for the regional data
center's infrastructure. We began testing IP telephony equipment in the field in
the fourth quarter of 2000. We anticipate beginning field trials related to
product integration efforts for set-top devices in late 2001, and have completed
trials related to telephony reductions and implementation has begun in certain
markets. Although there are significant technological issues to overcome to
successfully complete the acquired in-process research and development, AT&T
Broadband Group expects successful completion. If, however, AT&T Broadband Group
is unable to establish technological feasibility and produce commercially viable
products/ services, the anticipated incremental future cash flows attributable
to expected profits from such new products/services may not be realizable.

     The 1999 charge also included a $50 loss related to a contribution
agreement TCI entered into with Phoenixstar, Inc. that requires AT&T Broadband
Group to satisfy certain liabilities owed by Phoenixstar, Inc. and its
subsidiaries. The remaining obligation under this contribution agreement and an
agreement that MediaOne has is $57, which was fully accrued at December 31,
2000.

6. INVESTMENTS

     Subsidiaries of AT&T have investments in various companies and partnerships
accounted for under the equity method which have been attributed to AT&T
Broadband Group. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, equity investments of $6,350 and
$13,059, respectively, had been attributed to AT&T Broadband Group. The carrying
value of these investments exceeded AT&T Broadband Group's share of the
underlying reported net assets by approximately $5,455 and $10,894 at December
31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The excess cost is being amortized over periods
ranging from 25 to 40 years. Pretax amortization of the excess cost of $485 and
$476 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and for the ten months ended December
31, 1999, respectively, is reflected as a component of net losses from equity
investments, net of income tax benefit in the accompanying combined statements
of operations.

(a) At December 31, 2000 and 1999, AT&T Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC, owned
    48,942,172, shares of Cablevision Systems Corporation Class A common stock,
    which had a closing market price of $84.94 and $75.50 per share,
    respectively, on such dates. Cablevision System Corporation ("Cablevision")
    exercised its right to redeem all of its outstanding preferred stock and
    issued additional common stock. Cablevision also issued shares of its common
    stock for acquisitions. As a result of these transactions, ATTBLLC's
    ownership interest in Cablevision decreased from 32.04% to 27.98%. Due to
    the resulting decrease in Cablevision's equity, net of the dilution of
    ATTBLLC's ownership interest in Cablevision, AT&T Broadband Group recorded a
    net decrease to "Combined attributed net assets" of $170 in 2000.

(b) On April 1, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC, contributed cable
    and ad sales systems to Mid Continent Communications, a newly formed
    partnership, in exchange for a 50% interest in the partnership. A gain of $5
    is being deferred due to a keep well agreement with the partnership.

(c) On August 28, 2000, AT&T and Excite@Home announced the closing of their
    extension contracts and governance reorganization. As a result of the
    governance changes, AT&T gained a controlling financial interest and AT&T
    Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC, began consolidating Excite@Home's results
    on September 1, 2000. As of December 31, 2000, ATTBLLC had an approximate
    23% economic interest and 74% voting interest in Excite@Home. ATTBLLC owned
    7,924,422 and 63,720,000 shares of Excite@Home Class A common stock at
    December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, with closing market prices of
    $5.53 and $42.88 per share, respectively. ATTBLLC also owned 86,595,578 and
    30,800,000 shares of Excite@Home Class B common stock at December 31, 2000
    and 1999, respectively, which are not publicly traded. During 2000 and 1999,
    Excite@Home issued shares of its common stock for various acquisitions. As a
    result of these transactions, ATTBLLC's economic interest in Excite@Home
    decreased from 25% to 23% in 2000, and from 38% to 25% in 1999,
    respectively. Due to the resulting increase in Excite@Home equity, net of
    the dilution of ATTBLLC's

    ownership interest in Excite@Home, AT&T Broadband Group recorded an increase
    to "combined attributed net assets" of $116 and $527 in 2000 and 1999,
    respectively.

(d) On January 18, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC, sold its
    interest in Lenfest Communications, Inc. to Comcast. See note 4.

(e) On February 14, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC, sold its
    interest in Bresnan Communications Group LLC to Charter Communications, Inc.
    ("Charter") for $285 in cash and a cost investment valued at $629 in Charter
    Communications VIII, LLC. The transaction resulted in a pretax gain of $33.

     During the fourth quarter of 2000, AT&T Broadband Group recognized a loss
on the marketable equity security holdings for Telewest Communications, plc, of
$111 million. Management determined the loss was not temporary due to the
downturn in market conditions and its inability to hold the investment as a
result of requirements related to the regulatory approval of the MediaOne
Merger. The fair value was based on quoted market prices.

     During the fourth quarter of 2000, Excite@Home recognized a loss on
investments totaling $129 which included a $107 loss on publicly held companies
and $22 on privately held investments. The loss recognized on the publicly held
investment was a result of Excite@Home's decision that the decline in market
value of certain investments was not temporary. The loss recognized on the
privately held companies was based on Excite@Home's determination that the
carrying value of certain investments was not recoverable, based on indicators
such as limited liquidity and poor prospects for additional funding. Since AT&T
Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC owns 23% of Excite@Home, 77% of the loss
recorded by Excite@Home is not included as a reduction of AT&T Broadband Group's
net income, but rather is eliminated in the statement of operations as minority
interest income (expense).

     At maturity, the Comcast Exchangeable Notes will be redeemed, at AT&T's
option, into (i) a number of shares of Comcast common stock equal to the
underlying shares multiplied by the exchange ratio, or (ii) its equivalent cash
value. The exchange ratio will be calculated at maturity in the following
manner:

          (a) If the fair market value of a share of Comcast common stock is
     greater than the call price, the exchange ratio will be 0.8333;

          (b) If the fair market value of a share of Comcast common stock is
     less than or equal to the put price, the exchange ratio will be 1;

          (c) If the fair market value of a share of Comcast common stock is
     less than the call price but greater than the put price, the exchange ratio
     will be a fraction the numerator of which is equal to the put price, and
     the denominator of which is equal to the fair market value of one share of
     Comcast common stock.

                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     The Vodafone Exchangeable Notes that mature in 2001, which are indexed to
29 million Vodafone ADRs, will be exchanged at maturity based upon a redemption
value of $9.00 in cash plus 2 1/2 times the fair market value of a Vodafone ADR
("Maturity Price"), as follows:

          (a) If the Maturity Price is greater than or equal to $9.00 plus 2 1/2
     times the call price per share, each Vodafone Exchangeable Note is
     equivalent to 0.8101 of the Maturity Price;

          (b) If the Maturity Price is less than or equal to $9.00 plus 2 1/2
     times the put price per share, each Vodafone Exchangeable Note is
     equivalent to the Maturity Price; or

          (c) If the Maturity Price is less than $71.75 per share but greater
     than $58.125 per share, each Vodafone Exchangeable Note is equivalent to
     $58.125.

     The redemption formula for such Vodafone Exchangeable Notes that mature in
2002, which are indexed to 26 million shares of Vodafone ADRs, is as follows:

          (a) If the fair market value of a Vodafone ADR is greater than or
     equal to the call price, each Vodafone exchangeable Note is equivalent to
     0.8475 of a Vodafone ADR;

          (b) If the fair market value of a Vodafone ADR is less than or equal
     to the put price, each Vodafone Exchangeable Note is equivalent to one
     Vodafone ADR; or

          (c) If the fair market value of a Vodafone ADR is less than the call
     price but greater than the put price, each Vodafone Exchangeable Note is
     equivalent to a fraction of a Vodafone ADR equal to (i) the put price
     divided by (ii) the fair market value of one Vodafone ADR.

     The exchangeable notes are being accounted for as indexed debt instruments
since the maturity value of the debt is dependent upon the fair market value of
the underlying Comcast, Microsoft and Vodafone securities. The exchangeable
notes contain an embedded option that hedges the market risk of a decline in
value of Comcast, Microsoft and Vodafone securities. The market risk of a
decline in Comcast and Microsoft stock, and Vodafone ADRs, below the respective
put prices has been eliminated. In addition, any market gains we may earn have
been limited to the call prices, with the exception of certain debt indexed to
Comcast stock and the debt indexed to the Vodafone ADRs, which provides for our
participation in a portion of the market gains above the call price.

     Since the Comcast, Microsoft and Vodafone securities are cost method
investments being accounted for as "available-for-sale" securities under SFAS
No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,"
changes in the maturity value of the exchangeable notes and the underlying
securities are being recorded as unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, within
other comprehensive income as a component of combined attributed net assets.

     The exchangeable notes indexed to Comcast common stock and Microsoft common
stock are secured by the Comcast and Microsoft investments AT&T Broadband Group
owns, through ATTBLLC and MediaOne. The exchangeable notes indexed to Vodafone
are unsecured obligations, ranking equally in right of payment with all other
unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of AT&T.

  OTHER EXCHANGEABLE NOTES

     During 2000, AT&T Broadband Group, through MediaOne, also entered into a
series of purchased and written options with a number of financial institutions
to monetize its holdings of 21.9 million shares of Microsoft common stock and
issued floating rate debt, which is attributed to AT&T Broadband Group. The
carrying value of the debt outstanding at December 31, 2000 was $1,369,

which pays interest at the three month London Inter-Bank Offering Rate ("LIBOR")
plus 0.4%. The debt matures annually with $458 maturing in 2003 and 2004, and
$453 maturing in 2005, and is repayable at AT&T's option in either Microsoft
common stock or cash.

     In addition, two subsidiaries of MediaOne, MediaOne SPC IV and MediaOne SPC
VI, entered into a series of purchased and written options on Vodafone ADRs
contributed to them by MediaOne and issued floating rate debt. The carrying
value of the debt outstanding at December 31, 2000 was $1,739, which pays
interest at a three-month LIBOR plus 0.5%. This debt has been attributed to AT&T
Broadband Group and matures in equal quarterly installments beginning in 2003
and ending in 2005. The assets of MediaOne SPC IV, which are primarily 29.1
million Vodafone ADRs, are only available to pay the creditors of MediaOne SPC
IV. Likewise, the assets of MediaOne SPC VI, which are primarily 18.0 million
Vodafone ADRs, are only available to pay the creditors of MediaOne SPC VI.

  CENTAUR FUNDING CORPORATION

     Prior to the MediaOne Merger, Centaur Funding Corporation ("Centaur"), a
subsidiary of MediaOne, issued three series of preferred shares, the Auction
Market Preference Shares, Series A ("Series A Shares"), the 9.08% Cumulative
Preference Shares, Series B (the "Series B Shares"), and the Preference Shares,
Series C (the "Series C Shares"). Centaur was created for the principal purpose
of raising capital through the issuance of preferred shares and investing those

preferred shares will be determined by reference to the dividend and redemption
activity of the preferred stock of AirTouch Communications, Inc. ("ATI shares")
held by MediaOne SPC II. AirTouch Communications, Inc. is a subsidiary of
Vodafone. Payments on the preferred shares are neither guaranteed nor secured by
MediaOne or AT&T. The assets of MediaOne SPC II, which include the ATI shares,
are only available to pay creditors of MediaOne SPC II. Centaur and MediaOne SPC
II are attributed entities of AT&T Broadband Group.

     The Series A Shares have a liquidation value of $250 thousand per share and
dividends are payable quarterly when declared by Centaur's Board of Directors
out of funds legally available. The Series B Shares have a liquidation value of
$1 thousand per share and dividends are payable quarterly in arrears when

Centaur are recorded within minority interest in the accompanying combined
balance sheet at December 31, 2000.

     Dividends on the preferred shares were $55 for the year ended December 31,
2000 and were included within minority interest income (expense) in the combined

9. COMPANY-OBLIGATED CONVERTIBLE QUARTERLY INCOME PREFERRED SECURITIES

     On June 16, 1999, AT&T Finance Trust I (the "AT&T Trust"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of AT&T completed the private sale of 100 million shares of 5.0%
cumulative quarterly income

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

preferred securities ("Quarterly Preferred Securities") to Microsoft. Proceeds
from the issuance were invested by the AT&T Trust in junior subordinated
debentures ("Debentures") issued by AT&T due 2029, which represent the sole
asset of the AT&T Trust. The Quarterly Preferred Securities have been attributed
to AT&T Broadband Group.

     The Quarterly Preferred Securities pay dividends at an annual rate of 5.0%
of the liquidation preference of $50 per security, and are convertible at any
time prior to maturity into 66.667 million shares of AT&T common stock. The
Quarterly Preferred Securities are subject to mandatory redemption upon
repayment of the Debentures at maturity or their earlier redemption. The
conversion feature can be terminated, under certain conditions, after three
years.

     The Debentures will make a quarterly payment in arrears of 62.5 cents per
security on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year.
AT&T has the right to defer such interest payments up to 20 consecutive
quarters. As a consequence, quarterly dividend payments on the Quarterly
Preferred Securities can be deferred by the AT&T Trust during any such interest-
payment period. If AT&T defers any interest payments, AT&T may not, among other
things, pay any dividends on AT&T common stock until all interest in arrears is
paid to the AT&T Trust.

     Dividends on the Quarterly Preferred Securities were $250 and $135 for the
year ended December 31, 2000 and the ten months ended December 31, 1999,
respectively, and are reported within minority interest income (expense) in the
accompanying combined statements of operations.

     On June 16, 1999, AT&T also issued to Microsoft 40 million warrants, each
to purchase one share of AT&T common stock at a price of $75 per share at the
end of three years. Alternatively, the warrants are exercisable on a cashless
basis. If the warrants are not exercised on the three-year anniversary of the
closing date, the warrants expire.

     A discount on the Quarterly Preferred Securities equal to the value of the
warrants of $306 was recognized and is being amortized over the 30-year life of
the Quarterly Preferred Securities as a component of minority interest income
(expense) in the accompanying combined statements of operations.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     In the normal course of business, AT&T Broadband Group uses various
financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for purposes
other than trading. AT&T Broadband Group does not use derivative financial
instruments for speculative purposes. Financial instruments used by AT&T
Broadband Group include guarantees of debt, letters of credit, option contracts
and interest rate swap agreements. Option contracts are used to mitigate
exposure to the fluctuations of stock prices of securities that collateralize
certain debt instruments. Interest rate swap agreements are used to mitigate
interest rate exposures. Collateral is generally not required for these types of
instruments.

     By their nature, all such instruments involve risk, including the credit
risk of nonperformance by counterparties. The maximum potential loss associated
with such risk may exceed the amount recognized in the balance sheet. However,
at December 31, 2000 and 1999, in management's opinion there was no significant
risk of loss in the event of nonperformance of the counterparties to these
financial instruments. AT&T Broadband Group controls its exposure to credit risk
through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. AT&T
Broadband Group does not have any significant exposure to any individual
customer or counterparty, or any major concentration of credit risk related to
any financial instruments.

  OPTION CONTRACTS

     Prior to the MediaOne Merger two subsidiaries of MediaOne, MediaOne SPC IV
and MediaOne SPC VI, entered into a series of purchased and written options (the
"Vodafone Collars") on Vodafone ADRs contributed to them by MediaOne and issued
floating rate debt. Such subsidiaries of MediaOne have been attributed to AT&T
Broadband Group. The Vodafone Collars have been designated and are effective as
a hedge of the market risk associated with the investment in Vodafone ADRs. The
Vodafone Collars are therefore carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and
losses, net of tax, being recorded within other comprehensive income as a
component of combined attributed net assets, together with any change in the
fair value of the Vodafone ADRs. The carrying value of the Vodafone Collars at
December 31, 2000, was $453.

     At the expiration of the MediaOne SPC IV collar, AT&T Broadband Group will
receive cash if the market value of a Vodafone ADR is less than approximately
$34.00 per share, which effectively eliminates the downside risk if the stock
price falls below $34.00 per share. Conversely, if the value of a Vodafone ADR
is greater than approximately $49.00 per share, AT&T Broadband Group will be
required to pay cash, which effectively offsets the corresponding increase in
the value of a Vodafone ADR. This Vodafone Collar expires quarterly beginning in
2003 and ending in 2005.

     At the expiration of the MediaOne SPC VI collar, AT&T Broadband Group will
receive cash if the market value of a Vodafone ADR is less than approximately
$40.00 per share, which effectively eliminates the downside risk if the stock
price falls below $40.00 per share. Conversely, if the market value of a
Vodafone ADR is greater than approximately $58.00 per share, AT&T Broadband
Group will be required to pay cash, which effectively offsets the corresponding
increase in the value of a Vodafone ADR. This Vodafone Collar expires quarterly
beginning in 2003 and ending in 2005.

     During 2000, AT&T also entered into a series of purchased and written
options related to a portion of AT&T's holdings in Microsoft stock (the
"Microsoft Collar"), which is indexed to floating rate debt. AT&T's holdings in
Microsoft stock and the Microsoft Collar have been attributed to AT&T Broadband
Group. The Microsoft Collar has been designated and is effective as a hedge of
the market risk associated with AT&T's investment in Microsoft stock. The
Microsoft Collar is carried at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses, net
of tax, being recorded within other comprehensive income as a component of
combined attributed net assets, together with any change in the fair value of
the securities. The carrying value of the Microsoft Collar was $419 at December
31, 2000.

     At the expiration of the Microsoft Collar, if the price of a Microsoft
share is equal to or less than the put price of $62.48, AT&T would exercise the
put option and deliver all underlying shares of Microsoft common stock and
receive cash equal in value to (i) the put price, multiplied by (ii) the
underlying share amount. Alternatively, at AT&T's option, AT&T can elect not to
deliver the underlying shares and instead settle the put option by receiving
cash equal in value to the (i) difference between the put price minus the fair
value of one Microsoft share, multiplied by (ii) the underlying share amount. If
the price of a Microsoft share is greater than the call price, which ranges from
$86.26 to $118.36, then the call option would be exercised and AT&T would
deliver all underlying shares and receive cash equal in value to (i) the call
price, multiplied by (ii) the underlying share amount. At AT&T's option, AT&T
can elect not to deliver the underlying shares and instead settle the call
option by delivering cash equal in value to the (i) difference between the call
price minus the fair value of one Microsoft share, multiplied by (ii) the
underlying share amount. Any such amount received from the exercise or
settlement of either put or call option

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

will be used to retire the floating rate debt. AT&T Broadband Group would retain
cash in excess of the call price from a call option exercise. If the price of a
Microsoft share is between the put price and the call price, the collar will
expire without value.

  INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS

     Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage exposure to changes in
interest rates and to lower overall costs of financing. AT&T enters into swap
agreements to manage the fixed/floating mix of the debt portfolio in order to
reduce aggregate risk to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps also allow
funds to be raised at floating rates and effectively swap them into fixed rates
that are lower than those available if fixed-rate borrowings were made directly.
These agreements involve the exchange of fixed-rate for floating-rate payments
or floating-rate for other floating-rate payments without the exchange of the
underlying principal amount. Floating-rate payments are based on rates tied to
the LIBOR.

     The following table indicates the types of swaps in use at December 31,
2000 and 1999, which have been attributed to AT&T Broadband Group, and their
weighted-average interest rates. Average variable rates are those in effect at
the reporting date and may change significantly over the lives of the contracts.



                                                              2000      1999

  Average receive rate......................................     --      6.63%
  Average pay rate..........................................     --      6.53%


     The weighted-average remaining terms of the swap contracts were 30 years at
December 31, 2000.

     The notional amounts represent agreed-upon amounts on which calculations of
dollars to be exchanged are based. They do not represent amounts exchanged by
the parties and, therefore, are not a measure of AT&T Broadband Group's
exposure. Exposure is limited to the fair value of the contracts with a positive
fair value plus interest receivable, if any, at the reporting date.

  GUARANTEES OF DEBT

     From time to time, AT&T Broadband, LLC and MediaOne may guarantee the debt
of their subsidiaries and certain unconsolidated joint ventures. AT&T Broadband,
LLC has taken certain steps to support debt compliance with respect to
obligations aggregating $1,461 and $1,720 at December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, of certain cable television partnerships in which AT&T Broadband,
LLC has a non-controlling ownership interest and which have been attributed to
AT&T Broadband Group. All guarantees of AT&T Broadband Group, through ATTBLLC,
totaled $1,486 and $1,760 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Although
there can be no assurance, management believes that it will not be required to
meet its obligations under such guarantees.

  LETTERS OF CREDIT

     Letters of credit are purchased guarantees that ensure performance or
payment to third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions.
Letters of credit do not create additional risk to AT&T Broadband Group.
Outstanding letters of credit at December 31, 2000 were $263.

  EQUITY HEDGES

     Equity hedges are used to manage exposure to changes in equity prices
associated with stock appreciation rights of affiliated companies.

     The following table provides the amounts recorded in AT&T Broadband Group's
combined balance sheet at December 31, 2000:

     The nonqualified pension plan had an unfunded accumulated benefit
obligation of $21 at December 31, 2000.

     The weighted-average assumptions used in the measurement of the pension and
postretirement benefit obligations at December 31, 2000 are:


                                                           
Discount rate...............................................  7.5%
Expected return on plan assets..............................  9.5%
Rate of compensation increase...............................  4.0%


     A rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered healthcare benefits
(the healthcare cost trend rate) of 7% was assumed. This rate was assumed to
gradually decline after 2000 to 5% by the year 2011 and then remain level.
Assumed healthcare cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts
reported for the healthcare plans. A one percentage point increase or decrease
in the assumed healthcare cost trend rate would increase or decrease the
healthcare component of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by $4
and $3, respectively. The impact on the service and interest-cost components of
net periodic postretirement healthcare benefit cost would not have been
material.

     AT&T also sponsors savings plans for the majority of its employees. The
plans allow employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax
income in accordance with specified guidelines. Employee contributions are
matched up to certain limits. AT&T Broadband Group contributions amounted to $70
and $38 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the ten months ended December
31, 1999.

12. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

     Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (the "Program"), AT&T grants
stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T
common stock. The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price
when the option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years
and are exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant.

     Under the Program, performance share units are awarded to key employees in
the form of either common stock or cash at the end of a three-year period, based
on AT&T's total shareholder return and/or certain financial-performance targets.

     Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which was
effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of
AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan,
employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's
common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange
for that day. Under the Plan, AT&T sold approximately 506 thousand and 102
thousand shares to AT&T Broadband Group employees in 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

     AT&T Broadband Group applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in
accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been
recognized for stock-based compensation plans other than for performance-based
and restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights ("SARs"). Stock based
compensation income (expense) for AT&T Broadband Group was $268 and $(366) for
the year ended December 31, 2000 and the ten months ended December 31, 1999,
respectively. These amounts included income (expense) of $269 and $(382) for the
year ended December 31, 2000 and the ten months ended December 31, 1999,
respectively, related to grants of SARs of affiliated companies held by certain
employees subsequent to the TCI Merger. AT&T entered into an equity hedge in
1999 to offset potential future compensation costs associated with such SARs.
(Expense) income related to this hedge was $(297) and $247 for the year ended
December 31, 2000 and the ten months ended December 31, 1999, respectively.

     AT&T Broadband Group has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." If AT&T Broadband Group had
elected to recognize compensation costs based on the fair value at the date of
grant for AT&T awards granted to AT&T Broadband Group employees in 2000 and
1999, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, AT&T Broadband Group's net
loss would have been adjusted to reflect additional compensation expense
resulting in the following pro forma amounts:



                                                           YEAR         TEN MONTHS

Net loss.............................................    $(5,390)        $(2,203)


     AT&T granted approximately 13.4 million and 1.0 million stock options to
AT&T Broadband Group employees during 2000 and 1999, respectively. At the date
of grant, the weighted average exercise price for AT&T options granted to AT&T
Broadband Group employees during 2000 and 1999 were $34.17 and $56.56,
respectively. The weighted-average fair values at date of grant for AT&T options
granted to AT&T Broadband Group employees during 2000 and 1999 were $10.28 and
$17.45, respectively, and were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model. The following weighted-average assumptions were applied for 2000 and
1999, respectively: (i) expected dividend yields of 1.7% and 1.7% (ii) expected
volatility rates of 33.9% and 28.6%, and (iii) risk-free interest rates of 6.24%
and 5.26% and (iv) expected lives of 3.7 years and 5.7 years.

     Deferred income tax liabilities are taxes AT&T Broadband Group expects to
pay in future periods. Similarly, deferred income tax assets are recorded for
expected reductions in taxes payable in future periods. Deferred income taxes
arise because of differences in the book and tax basis of certain assets and
liabilities. Deferred income tax liabilities and assets consist of the
following:

federal net operating loss carryforwards of $64, expiring through 2013. AT&T
Broadband Group also has federal tax credit carryforwards of $82, expiring
through 2004. In connection with the TCI Merger, certain federal and state net
operating loss carryforwards were subject to a valuation allowance of $59. If,
in the future, the realization of these acquired deferred tax assets becomes
more likely than not, any reduction of the associated valuation allowance will
be allocated to reduce franchise costs and other purchased intangibles.

     At December 31, 2000, Excite@Home had net operating loss carryforwards (tax
effected) for federal and state income tax purposes of $281 expiring through
2020 and $9 expiring through 2010, respectively. Utilization of Excite@Home's
net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to a minor annual limitation due
to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result
in the expiration of a portion of Excite@Home's net operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards before utilization. The realization of Excite@Home's net
deferred tax asset is dependent upon Excite@Home's future earnings, if any, the
timing and amount of which are uncertain. In addition, Excite@Home is a separate
taxpayer and is not a member of the AT&T consolidated tax group. Accordingly,
Excite@Home provided a valuation allowance in an amount equal to its net
deferred tax assets of $702 as of December 31, 2000. Approximately $142 of
Excite@Home's valuation allowance at December 31, 2000, is attributable to stock
option deductions, the benefit of which will be credited to paid in capital when
realized. Approximately $269 of Excite@Home's valuation allowance at December
31, 2000, is attributable to deferred tax assets that if realized will be
allocated to first reduce goodwill, then other purchased intangibles, and then
income tax expense.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the
"1992 Cable Act") imposed certain rate regulations on the cable television
industry. Under the 1992 Cable Act, all cable systems are subject to rate
regulation, unless they face "effective competition," as defined by the 1992
Cable Act and expanded in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"),
in their local franchise area.

     The entities attributed to the AT&T Broadband Group believe that they have
complied in all material respects with the provisions of the 1992 Cable Act and
the 1996 Act, including its rate setting provisions. If, as a result of the
review process, a system cannot substantiate its rates, it could be required to
retroactively reduce its rates to the appropriate benchmark and refund the
excess portion of rates received.

     In the normal course of business AT&T Broadband Group is subject to
proceedings, lawsuits and other claims, including proceedings under laws and
regulations related to environmental and other matters. Such matters are subject
to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance.
Consequently, AT&T Broadband Group is unable to ascertain the ultimate aggregate
amount of monetary liability or financial impact with respect to these matters
at December 31, 2000. These matters could affect the operating results of any
one quarter when resolved in future periods. However, management believes after
final disposition, any monetary liability or financial impact to AT&T Broadband
Group beyond that provided for at year-end would not be material to AT&T
Broadband Group's annual combined financial statements.

     At December 31, 2000, an entity attributed to AT&T Broadband Group has an
agreement with Motorola, Inc. to purchase a minimum of 1.25 million digital
set-top devices at an average price of $248 per unit in 2001.

     AT&T Broadband Group is party to an agreement under which it purchases
certain billing services from an unaffiliated third party. Unless terminated by
either party pursuant to terms of the agreement, the agreement expires on
December 31, 2012. The agreement calls for monthly payments. Such payments are
subject to adjustments and conditions pursuant to the terms of the underlying
agreements.

15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     As discussed in Note 1, AT&T provides necessary working capital
requirements through intercompany debt and capital contributions to AT&T
Broadband Group. These amounts are reflected in the accompanying combined
balance sheets as short-term debt due to AT&T or a component of combined
attributed net assets. Short-term debt due to AT&T and interest was assumed
based upon the methodology outlined in Note 1. Intercompany debt was $5,830 and
$4,297 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Intercompany interest
expense was $323 and $91 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and for the ten
months ended December 31, 1999, respectively.

     Pursuant to an agreement with a subsidiary of LMG, entities attributed to
AT&T Broadband Group purchase programming and other services from such LMG
subsidiary. Amounts included in costs of services for programming purchased from
such LMG subsidiary were $239 and $184 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and
for the ten months ended December 31, 1999, respectively. Pursuant to such
agreement, certain entities attributed to AT&T Broadband Group are required to
make minimum payments for such programming and other services through 2022. The
commitments increase annually from $288 in 2001 to $315 in 2003, and will
thereafter increase annually through 2022 with inflation. In the event that
programming costs of such LMG subsidiary increase by more

than ten percent of an amount specified in the contract, AT&T Broadband Group's
commitment will be increased by 66 percent of the increase above the amount
specified in the contract. Other factors such as acquisitions and divestitures
also affect the commitment amounts.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group provides AT&T Broadband Group with sales
support and customer care services at cost based prices. For the year ended
December 31, 2000 and the ten months ended December 31, 1999, such amounts
totaled $89 and $121, respectively, and are included in selling, general and
administrative expenses in the accompanying combined statements of operations.

     In addition, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Business Services Group
provide AT&T Broadband Group with wireline communication and other services. For
the year ended December 31, 2000 and the ten months ended December 31, 1999,
charges for such services totaled $104 and $31, respectively, and are included
in costs of services in the accompanying combined statements of operations.

     Included in current liabilities at December 31, 2000 and 1999, was $98 and
$213, respectively, related to amounts due AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T
Business Services Group for the above described services.

     AT&T allocates general corporate overhead expenses, including finance,
legal, marketing, use of the AT&T brand, planning and strategy and human
resources to AT&T Broadband Group, as well as costs for AT&T employees who
directly support the activities of the AT&T Broadband Group. Charges for such
services amounted to $159 and $120 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and for
the ten months ended December 31, 1999, respectively. These amounts are included
in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying combined
statements of operations and were determined based on the methodology described
in note 1.

     On October 2, 2000, AT&T Broadband Group, through MediaOne, completed the
sale of several equity interests in international ventures acquired as a result
of the MediaOne Merger to the AT&T Wireless Group. Such interests were sold for
approximately $1 billion, which was based upon a third party valuation. AT&T
Broadband Group received 120,335,081 of AT&T common shares for sale of such
equity interests. The AT&T common stock received in such transaction has been
included in combined attributed net assets. In connection with such sale, $196
of related deferred tax liabilities were transferred to AT&T Wireless Group. No
gain or loss was recognized on the sale of such equity interests.

16. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." Among
other provisions, it requires entities recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair
values of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the
derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The effective date of
this standard was delayed via the issuance of SFAS No. 137. The effective date
for SFAS No. 133 is now for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, though
earlier adoption is encouraged and retroactive application is prohibited. For
AT&T Broadband Group, this means the standard must be adopted no later than
January 1, 2001. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" as an amendment
to SFAS No. 133. This statement provides

                              AT&T BROADBAND GROUP

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

clarification with regard to certain implementation issues under SFAS No. 133 on
specific types of hedges.

     On January 1, 2001, AT&T Broadband Group adopted SFAS No. 133. AT&T
Broadband Group recorded a cumulative effect of an accounting change, net of
applicable taxes, of approximately $1,209 of income, primarily attributable to
fair value adjustments of debt instruments, including those acquired in
conjunction with the MediaOne Merger, as well as to the warrant portfolio. In
addition, in connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 133, AT&T Broadband Group
reclassified certain investment securities, which support debt that is indexed
to such securities, from "available-for-sale" to "trading". This
reclassification resulted in the recognition of a charge of $1,724, net of
applicable taxes, which was recorded as a reduction of other income. As
available-for-sale securities, changes in fair value were previously included
within other comprehensive income as a component of combined attributed net
assets.

     The impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, on
AT&T Broadband Group's future results of operations is dependent upon the fair
values of the derivatives and related financial instruments and could result in
pronounced quarterly fluctuations in other income in future periods.

     In December 1999, the SEC issued SAB No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements." Registrants were required to apply the accounting and
disclosures described in SAB No. 101 no later than the fourth quarter of 2000.
AT&T Broadband Group is currently in compliance with the provisions of SAB No.
101.

     In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities - a
Replacement of FASB No. 125." This statement provides accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. Under these standards, after a transfer of financial assets, an
entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the
liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been
surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This statement
provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. This statement is
effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. AT&T Broadband Group does not expect
that the adoption of SFAS No. 140 will have a material impact on AT&T Broadband
Group's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     Effective January 1, 2001, entities attributed to AT&T Broadband Group sold
to Insight Communications Company LP ("Insight"), for $392, several Illinois
systems serving approximately 98,400 customers. Insight contributed the
customers to Insight Midwest L.P. in which AT&T Broadband Group, through its
attributed entities, has a 50% interest. The $62 gain is being deferred due to a
keep well agreement with Insight Midwest, LP. Entities attributed to AT&T
Broadband Group also contributed several Illinois systems serving approximately
247,500 customers to Insight Midwest, LP while Insight contributed systems
serving approximately 177,000 customers. The $117 gain is being deferred due to
a keep well agreement with Insight Midwest LP.

     On January 2, 2001, AT&T through ATTBLLC, completed the sale of
Kearns-Tribune, LLC, to MediaNews Group for $200 in cash. The transaction
resulted in a pretax gain of approximately $107.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     On January 8, 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and Cablevision Systems
Corporation completed agreements for the transfer of cable-systems. AT&T
received cable-systems serving 358,000 customers in Boston and Eastern
Massachusetts. In exchange, Cablevision received cable-systems serving
approximately 130,000 customers in northern New York suburbs, and 44 million
shares of AT&T common stock valued at approximately $871, and approximately $204
in cash. Cablevision recorded a gain as a result of the transaction. Due to the
ownership interest in Cablevision, AT&T Broadband Group recorded its portion of
the gain, of $234 in "net losses from equity investments".

     On April 30, 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T received 63.9 million shares of
AT&T stock valued at $1,423 held by Comcast in exchange for an entity owning
cable systems serving approximately 590,000 customers in Delaware, New Mexico,
Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Tennessee.

     In February 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and Charter signed a definitive
agreement involving several strategic cable system transactions. In accordance
with such agreement, Charter will receive cable systems which are attributed to
AT&T Broadband Group serving approximately 574,000 customers in Missouri,
Illinois, Alabama, Nevada and California. AT&T Broadband Group, through its
attributed entities, will receive $1,790, subject to adjustments, composed of
cable systems serving approximately 62,000 customers in Florida, up to $502 in
Charter common stock, and the balance in cash. Pending certain closing
conditions and regulatory approvals, the transactions are expected to close in
the second and third quarters of 2001.

     In February 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and MediaCom Communications
Corporation ("MediaCom") signed a definitive agreement in which certain cable
systems attributed to AT&T Broadband Group serving approximately 837,000
customers in Georgia, Iowa, Illinois and Missouri will be sold to MediaCom. AT&T
Broadband Group will receive cash of approximately $2,215, subject to
adjustments. Pending certain closing conditions and regulatory approvals, the
transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2001.

     In April 2001, a subsidiary of AT&T and Adelphia Communications Corporation
("Adelphia") signed a definitive agreement in which certain cable systems
attributed to AT&T Broadband Group serving approximately 128,000 customers in
central Pennsylvania and Ohio will be sold to Adelphia. AT&T Broadband Group
will receive cash of approximately $318, subject to adjustments. Pending certain
closing conditions and regulatory approvals, the transaction is expected to
close in the third quarter of 2001.

     In May 2001, AT&T, together with certain subsidiaries attributed to the
AT&T Broadband Group, agreed to sell the 99.75% interest they own in the entity
holding the Baltimore, Maryland cable television system, serving approximately
110,000 customers, to Comcast for approximately $516. Pending certain closing
conditions and certain regulatory conditions, this transaction is expected to
close at the end of the second quarter or beginning of the third quarter of
2001.

     On January 11, 2001, Cox and Comcast exercised their rights to sell a
combined total of approximately 60 million shares of Excite@Home Series A common
stock to AT&T as part of the March 2000 agreement to reorganize Excite@Home's
governance. If this transaction were completed as originally contemplated, AT&T
Broadband Group would hold, on a fully diluted basis, approximately 38% of the
economic interest in Excite@Home and approximately 79% of the voting interest.
However, AT&T currently is in discussions to renegotiate the structure or terms
of the exercise of these sale rights, which negotiations may change the number
of shares or the percentage interests in Excite@Home that AT&T Broadband Group
will hold and may result in Comcast and/or Cox retaining all of their
Excite@Home shares.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     In the first quarter of 2001, AT&T Broadband Group recorded a charge of $56
for restructuring and exit costs as part of an initiative to reduce costs. The
restructuring and exit plans primarily focus on the maximization of synergies
through head count reductions, including the consolidation of customer-care and
call centers and the reduction in the construction efforts on cable plant
upgrade and rebuild activity. Included in exit costs was $53 of cash termination
benefits associated with the separation of approximately 2,100 employees as part
of involuntary termination plans. Approximately 11 percent of the separations
were management employees and 89 percent were non-management employees. The
charge also included approximately $3 recognized on the disposition of
facilities as a result of the headcount reductions.

     In the first quarter of 2001, AT&T signed a non-binding letter of agreement
under which AT&T may provide Excite@Home with $75 to $85 in connection with the
restructuring of the backbone fiber agreement between the companies and with a
joint initiative to maintain and improve current network performance levels. In
addition, AT&T Broadband Group recorded $752 of asset impairment and
restructuring charges related to Excite@Home. The impairment charges relate to
$600 in asset impairment charges taken by Excite@Home and a related goodwill
impairment of $139 taken by AT&T Broadband Group associated with its acquisition
goodwill of Excite@Home. The asset impairment and restructuring charge included
$13 of restructuring charges for headcount reductions and consolidation of
facilities.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and
Shareowners of AT&T Corp.:

In our opinion, the accompanying combined balance sheets and the related
combined statements of income and changes in combined attributed net assets and
of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of AT&T Consumer Services Group at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements
are the responsibility of AT&T Consumer Services Group's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

AT&T Consumer Services Group is a fully integrated business unit of AT&T Corp.;
consequently, as indicated in Note 1, these combined financial statements have
been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records
of AT&T Corp. and reflect certain assumptions and allocations. Moreover, as
indicated in Note 1, AT&T Consumer Services Group relies on AT&T Corp. for
administrative, management and other services. The financial position, results
of operations and cash flows of AT&T Consumer Services Group could differ from
those that would have resulted had AT&T Consumer Services Group operated
autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T Corp. As more fully discussed
in Note 1, the combined financial statements of AT&T Consumer Services Group
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
of AT&T Corp.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                  (DOLLARS IN MILLIONS UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED)

1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

  BACKGROUND

     On October 25, 2000 AT&T announced a restructuring plan designed to fully
separate or issue separately tracked stocks intended to reflect the financial
performance and economic value of each of AT&T's four major operating units.
Under this plan AT&T will create a new class of stock to track the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Consumer Services Group. If the Consumer
Services charter amendment proposal is approved, AT&T expects to fully
distribute the tracking stock to AT&T shareholders later this year.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group will be combined with AT&T Business Services
Group to form AT&T Communications Services, Inc. AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. will be separated from AT&T as an asset based stock, however will be the
owner of the AT&T Brand. AT&T Consumer Services Group is expected to be a
tracking stock of AT&T Communications Services Inc.

  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     AT&T Consumer Services Group provides to residential customers a variety of
any-distance communications services including long distance, local toll
(intrastate calls outside the immediate local area) and Internet access. In
addition, AT&T Consumer Services Group provides calling card, operator-handled
calling services, and in certain areas, local phone services.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is an integrated business of AT&T and is not a
separate legal entity. These combined financial statements reflect the results
of operations, financial position, changes in combined attributed net assets and
cash flows of AT&T Consumer Services Group as if it were a separate entity for
all periods presented. The combined financial statements of AT&T Consumer
Services Group were prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information
included herein may not necessarily reflect the combined results of operations,
financial position, changes in combined attributed net assets and cash flows of
AT&T Consumer Services Group had it been a separate, stand-alone entity during
the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with AT&T's Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2000.

     The combined financial statements of AT&T Consumer Services Group reflect
the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses directly attributable to AT&T
Consumer Services Group, as well as allocations deemed reasonable by management,
to present the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of AT&T
Consumer Services Group on a stand-alone basis. The allocation methodologies
have been described within the notes to the combined financial statements where
appropriate. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions within AT&T
Consumer Services Group have been eliminated. Earnings per share disclosure has
not been presented as AT&T Consumer Services Group is a business unit of AT&T
and earnings per share data is not considered meaningful.

     The combined financial statements of AT&T Consumer Services Group primarily
include the results of the following legal entities: AT&T Communications of the
Southern States Inc., AT&T Communications of the Southwest, Inc., AT&T
Communications companies in other jurisdictions and certain attributed assets of
AT&T Corp.

     Debt has been allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group based on our future
view of AT&T's debt position after taking into account the significant
deleveraging activities of AT&T Corp.

                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

This allocation took into account the following factors: prospective financing
requirements, working capital and capital expenditure requirements and
comparable company profiles. Increases in historical debt levels are based, in
general, on historical cash flows generated by this entity in relation to total
AT&T. Such cash outflows include acquisitions, dividend payments and capital
expenditures, partially offset by cash flow from operations. For purposes of
this allocation, certain "corporate" activities were deemed to be partially
funded by this entity by contributing proceeds to the parent for these
activities. These activities included the repurchase of common shares by AT&T
and cash payments associated with the acquisitions of TCI merger and MediaOne
acquisition. Since AT&T Consumer Services Group will be a tracking stock of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc., the intercompany debt allocated to them will be
payable to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. The interest expense on the
allocated debt was calculated based on a rate intended to be equivalent to the
rate AT&T Consumer Services Group would have received if it were a stand-alone
entity. Due to the expected positive operating cash flow of AT&T Consumer
Services Group, the level of debt of AT&T Consumer Services Group in the future
is expected to be significantly lower than the level at December 31, 2000.

     As a result of the above methodology, AT&T Consumer Services Group advanced
funds to AT&T. These advances are accounted for as short-term borrowings between
the entities and bear interest at a market rate that is substantially equal to
the rate at which AT&T would be able to borrow from third parties on a
short-term basis.

     General corporate overhead related to AT&T's Corporate headquarters and
common support divisions has been allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group as
it was not deemed practicable to specifically identify such common costs to AT&T
Consumer Services Group. The allocation of corporate overhead is divided into an
allocation of shared services (e.g., payroll and accounts payable) and other
corporate overhead. Costs of shared services are allocated to AT&T Consumer
Services Group based on transaction based prices. Other corporate overhead is
allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group based on the ratio of AT&T Consumer
Services Group's external costs and expenses adjusted for any functions that
AT&T Consumer Services Group performs on its own. The costs of these services
charged to AT&T Consumer Services Group are not necessarily indicative of the
costs that would have been incurred in AT&T Consumer Services Group had they
performed these functions entirely as a stand alone entity, nor are they
indicative of costs that will be charged or incurred in the future. However,
management believes that such allocations are reasonable.

     AT&T performs cash management functions on behalf of AT&T Consumer Services
Group. Substantially all of AT&T Consumer Service's Group's cash balances are
swept to AT&T on a daily basis, where they are managed and invested by AT&T.
Transfers of cash to and from AT&T are reflected as a component of combined
attributed net assets, after giving effect to the allocation of debt described
above.

     Changes in combined attributed net assets primarily represented net
transfers to or from AT&T, after giving effect to the net income of AT&T
Consumer Services Group during the period, and were assumed to be settled in
cash.

     Consolidated income tax provision, related tax payments or refunds, and
deferred tax balances of AT&T have been allocated to AT&T Consumer Services
Group based principally on the taxable income and tax credits directly
attributable to AT&T Consumer Services Group, essentially a stand alone
presentation. These allocations reflect AT&T Consumer Services Group's
contribution to AT&T's consolidated taxable income and the consolidated tax
liability and tax credit position. AT&T

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

and its affiliates and AT&T Consumer Services Group have entered into a tax
sharing agreement that provides for tax sharing payments based on the taxes or
tax benefits of a hypothetical affiliated group consisting of AT&T Broadband
Group, AT&T Communications Services, Inc., and AT&T Consumer Services Group.
Based on this agreement, the consolidated tax liability before credits is
allocated between the groups, based on each group's contribution to consolidated
taxable income of the hypothetical group. Consolidated tax credits of the
hypothetical group are allocated between groups based on each group's
contribution to each tax credit.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  REVENUE RECOGNITION

     AT&T Consumer Services Group recognizes long distance and local services
revenue based upon minutes of traffic processed or contracted fee schedules.
AT&T Consumer Services Group recognizes revenue as services are rendered or as
products are delivered to and are accepted by customers and when services are
provided in accordance with contract terms. AT&T Consumer Services Group records
revenue net of an estimate for unbillable accounts. During 2000, AT&T Consumer
Services Group adopted Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The adoption
did not have a material impact on AT&T Consumer Services Group's results of
operations or financial condition.

  ADVERTISING AND PROMOTIONAL COSTS

     AT&T Consumer Services Group expenses costs of advertising and promotions,
including cash incentives used to acquire customers, as incurred. Advertising
and promotional expenses were $930, $1,085 and $1,361 in 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. Of these amounts, $288, $320, and $622 were cash incentives to
acquire customers in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

  CASH EQUIVALENTS

     AT&T Consumer Services Group considers all highly liquid investments with
original maturities of generally three months or less to be cash equivalents.

  CASH FLOWS

     For purposes of the combined statements of cash flows, transactions between
AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T, other than dividends, have been accounted
for as having been settled in cash at the time the transaction was recorded by
AT&T Consumer Services Group.

  PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

     AT&T Consumer Services Group states property, plant and equipment at cost
and determines depreciation based upon the assets' estimated useful lives using
either the group or unit method. All of AT&T Consumer Services Group's property,
plant and equipment consists of communications and network equipment. The useful
lives of communications and network equipment range from three to 15 years. The
group method is used for the majority of the communications and network
equipment. All other property, plant and equipment, is depreciated on a
straight-line basis. When AT&T Consumer Services Group sells or retires assets
depreciated using the group method, the cost is deducted from property, plant
and equipment and charged to accumulated depreciation, without recognition of a
gain or loss. The unit method is primarily used for large computer systems and

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

support assets. When AT&T Consumer Services Group sells assets that were
depreciated using the unit method, AT&T Consumer Services Group includes the
related gains or losses in other income.

  GOODWILL

     Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net
assets acquired in business combinations accounted for as purchases. AT&T
Consumer Services Group amortizes goodwill on a straight-line basis over 10
years.

  SOFTWARE CAPITALIZATION

     Certain direct software development costs are capitalized, including
external direct costs of material and services, and payroll costs for employees
devoting time to the software projects. These costs are included within other
assets and are amortized over a period not to exceed five years beginning when
the asset is substantially ready for use. Costs incurred during the preliminary
project stage, as well as maintenance and training costs, are expensed as
incurred. AT&T Consumer Services Group capitalizes initial operating-system
software costs and amortizes them over the life of the associated hardware. AT&T
Consumer Services Group also capitalizes costs of purchased application
software. These capitalized costs are included in property, plant and equipment
and are amortized over a useful life not to exceed five years.

  INCOME TAXES

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is not a separate taxable entity for federal
and state income tax purposes and its results of operations are included in the
consolidated federal and state income tax returns of AT&T and its affiliates.
AT&T Consumer Services Group's provision or benefit for income taxes is based
upon its contribution to the overall income tax liability of AT&T and its
affiliates as described in Note 1.

  VALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

     Long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment, goodwill,
investments and software are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If
the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the
carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between
the fair value and carrying value of the asset. In addition, in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets," AT&T
Consumer Services Group continues to evaluate the amortization periods to
determine whether events or circumstances warrant revised amortization periods.

  USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and revenue and expenses during the period reported. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for
certain items such as long-term contracts, allowance for doubtful accounts,
depreciation and amortization, employee benefit plans, taxes, restructuring
reserves and contingencies.

  CONCENTRATIONS

     As of December 31, 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group does not have any
significant concentration of business transacted with a particular customer,
supplier or lender that could, if suddenly eliminated, severely impact AT&T
Consumer Services Group's operations. AT&T Consumer Services Group also does not
have a concentration of available sources of labor, services, or other rights
that could, if suddenly eliminated, severely impact AT&T Consumer Services
Group's operations. AT&T Consumer Services Group currently obtains a significant
portion of its transport services exclusively from AT&T Business Services Group.
If AT&T Consumer Services Group is unable to procure such transport services it
could affect its ability to meet demand for its products which would have an
adverse affect on the results.

4. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

     In 1999, AT&T Consumer Services Group purchased certain assets of SmarTalk
Teleservices, Inc., a leading seller of prepaid calling cards. The difference
between the purchase price and the fair value of net assets acquired has been
recorded as Goodwill in the accompanying financial statements. AT&T Consumer
Services Group amortizes this asset over 10 years, and recorded amortization
expense in the amount of $9 and $7 for the years ended December 31, 2000, and
1999, respectively.

     Also in 1999, AT&T Consumer Services Group sold its Language Line Services
business for a gain of $153, which is reflected in the combined statements of
income.

5. NET RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

     During 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group recorded $97 of net restructuring
and other charges, which included $18 of asset impairment charges and $79 for
restructuring and exit costs.

     The charge for restructuring and exit plans was primarily due to headcount
reductions, including the consolidation of customer care and call centers.

     Included in exit costs was $79 of cash termination benefits associated with
the involuntary separation of about 1,300 employees. Approximately 65% of the
individuals were management employees and 35% were non-management employees.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     The following table displays the activity of the restructuring reserve
account:

  Additions.................................................       79
  Deductions................................................      (44)
Balance at December 31, 2000................................     $ 41


     Deductions reflect cash payments of $29, $6 and $44 for 1998, 1999, and
2000, respectively. These payments included cash termination benefits of $29, $0
and $42, for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999 and 2000, respectively.
Deductions for 1998 also include noncash utilization of $19, which reflects a
reversal of excess reserves. Nearly 53% of the employees affected by the 1999
and 2000 restructuring charges have left their positions at December 31, 2000.

     In 2000, AT&T Consumer Services Group also recorded an asset impairment
charge of $18 related to the write-down of unrecoverable assets in certain
businesses where the carrying value was no longer supported by estimated future
cash flows.

     During 1999, AT&T Consumer Services Group recorded $7 of net restructuring
and other charges. This $7 charge for restructuring and exit costs was recorded
in conjunction with AT&T's initiative to reduce costs. The restructuring and
exit plans primarily focused on the maximization of synergies through headcount
reductions, including the consolidation of customer-care and call centers.

     The exit costs represent cash termination benefits associated with the
separation of approximately 164 employees as part of voluntary termination
plans. All of the terminations were nonmanagement employees.

     During 1998, AT&T Consumer Services Group recorded a $19 benefit to net
restructuring and other charges. This benefit represents the reversal of 1995
business restructuring reserves primarily resulting from the overlap of AT&T's
1998 voluntary retirement incentive program (VRIP) on certain 1995 projects.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group purchases receivables from AT&T Wireless
Services and provides customer care and billing services to AT&T Wireless
Services at cost-based prices, which approximate market prices. For the years
ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, these customer care and billing services
totaled $88, $77 and $18, respectively, and are reflected as a reduction of SG&A
expenses in the combined statements of income. Included within accounts payable

     AT&T Consumer Services Group provides AT&T Broadband with sales support and
customer care services at cost-based prices, which approximate market prices.
For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, these amounts totaled $89 and
$121, respectively, and are reflected as a reduction of SG&A expenses in the
combined statements of income. The inter-entity receivables from AT&T Broadband

     AT&T invests excess cash of AT&T Puerto Rico and AT&T Virgin Islands on
their behalf. Notes receivable related to this cash, included within accounts
receivable, were $262 and $171 at December 31, 2000, 1999, respectively.

7. PENSION, POSTRETIREMENT AND OTHER EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

     The majority of AT&T Consumer Services Group's employees participate in
AT&T's noncontributory defined benefit pension plans and postretirement benefit
plans. Pension benefits for management employees are principally based on
career-average pay. Pension benefits for occupational employees are not directly
related to pay. AT&T's benefit plans for current and certain future retirees
include health care benefits, life insurance coverage and telephone concessions.

     For purposes of allocating a portion of AT&T's net pension and
postretirement periodic benefit cost to AT&T Consumer Services Group's financial
statements, certain estimates were made as of December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998
of AT&T Consumer Services Group's share of AT&T's pension and postretirement
assets and benefit obligations related to AT&T Consumer Services Group's active
employees. Based on this methodology, AT&T Consumer Services Group's share of
AT&T's net pension and postretirement periodic benefit (credit) cost was $(14)
and $11 in 2000, $(11) and $17 in 1999 and $(4) and $10 in 1998, respectively.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group's employees are also eligible to participate
in savings plans sponsored by AT&T. The plans allow employees to contribute a
portion of their pretax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified
guidelines. AT&T matches a certain percentage of employee contributions, up to
certain limits. AT&T Consumer Services Group's expense related to the AT&T
savings plans was $21 in 2000, $26 in 1999 and $26 in 1998.

8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

     Under AT&T's 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (Program), AT&T grants stock
options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on AT&T common
stock.

     The exercise price of any stock option is equal to the stock price when the
option is granted. Generally, the options vest over three or four years and are
exercisable up to 10 years from the date of grant.

     Under the Program, performance share units are awarded to key employees in
the form of either common stock or cash at the end of a three-year period, based
on AT&T's total shareholder return and/or certain financial-performance targets.

     Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (Plan), which was
effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of
AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan,
employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's
common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of
the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange
for that day. Under the Plan, AT&T sold approximately 389 thousand, 311 thousand
and 251 thousand shares to AT&T Consumer Services Group's employees in 2000,
1999 and 1998, respectively.

     AT&T and AT&T Consumer Services Group applied Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related
interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation
expense has been recognized for its stock-based compensation plans other than
for performance-based and restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights
(SARs). Compensation costs charged against AT&T Consumer Services Group's
results of operations were $3, $4 and $2 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

     AT&T and AT&T Consumer Services Group have adopted the disclosure-only
provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." If AT&T
Consumer Services Group had elected to recognize compensation costs based on the
fair value at the date of grant for AT&T awards granted to AT&T Consumer
Services Group's employees in 2000, 1999 and 1998, consistent with the
provisions of SFAS No. 123, AT&T Consumer Services Group's net income would have
been adjusted to reflect additional compensation expense resulting in the
following pro forma amounts:



                                                          FOR THE YEARS ENDED
                                                              DECEMBER 31,
                                                       --------------------------
                                                        2000      1999      1998
                                                       ------    ------    ------
                                                                  
Net income...........................................  $4,095    $4,621    $3,801


     The pro forma effect on net income for 1998 may not be representative of
the pro forma effect on net income of future years because the SFAS No. 123
method of accounting for pro forma compensation expense has not been applied to
options granted prior to January 1, 1995, as all such options were fully vested
by the end of 1998.

     AT&T granted approximately 5.2 million, 2.5 million and 1.7 million, stock
options to AT&T Consumer Services Group employees during 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. At the date of grant, the weighted average exercise price for AT&T
options granted to AT&T Consumer Services Group's employees during 2000, 1999
and 1998 were $36.06, $55.96 and $41.72, respectively. The weighted-average fair
values at date of grant for AT&T options granted to AT&T Consumer Services

employees during 2000, 1999 and 1998 were $12.41, $15.53 and $9.88,
respectively, and were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
The following weighted-average assumptions were applied for 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively: (i) expected dividend yields of 1.6%, 1.7% and 2.0% (ii) expected
volatility rates of 33.6%, 28.5% and 24.5%, and (iii) risk-free interest rates
of 6.29%, 5.15% and 5.14% and (iv) expected lives of 4.9 years, 4.6 years and
4.3 years.

9. INCOME TAXES

     AT&T Consumer Services Group is not a separate legal entity for federal and
state income tax purposes and its results of operations are included in the
consolidated federal and state income tax returns of AT&T and its affiliates.
(See Note 1). AT&T Consumer Services Group's provision for income taxes has been
prepared as if the entity prepares separate tax returns for federal and state
tax purposes.

     Deferred income tax liabilities are taxes AT&T Consumer Services Group
expects to pay in future periods. Similarly, deferred income tax assets are
recorded for expected reductions in taxes payable in future periods. Deferred
income taxes arise because of differences in the book and tax basis of certain
assets and liabilities.

     Deferred income tax liabilities and assets consist of the following:

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     In the normal course of business AT&T Consumer Services Group is subject to
proceedings, lawsuits and other claims, including proceedings under laws and
regulations related to environmental and other matters. Such matters are subject
to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance.
Consequently, AT&T Consumer Services Group is unable to ascertain the ultimate
aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact with respect to these
matters at December 31, 2000. These matters could affect the operating results
of any one quarter when resolved in future periods. However, AT&T Consumer
Services Group believes that after final disposition, any monetary liability or
financial impact to us beyond that provided for at year-end would not be
material to AT&T Consumer Services Group's annual combined financial statements.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group leases equipment through contracts that expire
in various years through 2004. Rental expense under operating leases was $15,
$19 and $11 for the years ended December 31 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

11. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." Among
other provisions, it requires that entities recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair
value of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the
derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The effective date of
this standard was delayed via the issuance of SFAS No. 137. The effective date
for SFAS No. 133 is now for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, though
earlier adoption is encouraged and retroactive application is prohibited. For
AT&T Consumer Services Group this means that the standard must be adopted no
later than January 1, 2001.

     In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" as an amendment to SFAS
No. 133. This statement provides clarification with regard to certain
implementation issues under SFAS No. 133 on specific types of hedges.

                          AT&T CONSUMER SERVICES GROUP
                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     On January 1, 2001, AT&T Consumer Services Group adopted SFAS No. 133. This
adoption did not have a material impact on AT&T Consumer Services Group's
combined financial statements.

     The impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, on
AT&T Consumer Services Group's future results of operations is dependent upon
the fair values of AT&T Consumer Services Group's derivatives and related
financial instruments and could result in pronounced quarterly fluctuations in
other income in future periods.

     In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities -- A
Replacement of FASB No. 125." This statement provides accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. Under these standards, after a transfer of financial assets, an
entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the
liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been
surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This statement
provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. This statement is
effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. AT&T Consumer Services Group does
not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 140 will have a material impact on AT&T
Consumer Services Group's results of operations, financial position or cash
flows.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On April 26, 2001, AT&T initiated a 364-day accounts receivable
securitization program providing for up to $500 of funding. Under the program, a
small percentage of accounts receivable related to AT&T Consumer Services Group
will be sold on a discounted, revolving basis, to a special purpose,
wholly-owned subsidiary, which assigns interests in such receivables to
unrelated third-party financing entities.

     On March 23, 2001, AT&T Inc. signed an agreement to acquire substantially
all of the assets of NorthPoint Communications Group, Inc. valued at
approximately $135. The acquisition includes all of NorthPoint's co-locations
nationwide, certain network equipment, systems and support software and related
assets, including two leased buildings. The purchase of NorthPoint
Communications Group, Inc. is expected to be attributed to AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and
Shareowners of AT&T Corp.:

In our opinion, the accompanying combined balance sheets and the related
combined statements of income, of changes in combined attributed net assets and
of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These combined financial
statements are the responsibility of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these combined
financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and the significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is a fully integrated business unit of AT&T
Corp.; consequently as indicated in Note 1, these combined financial statements
have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting
records of AT&T Corp. and reflect certain assumptions and allocations. Moreover,
as indicated in Note 1, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. relies on AT&T Corp.
for administrative, management and other services. The financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. could
differ from those that would have resulted had AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. operated autonomously or as an entity independent of AT&T Corp. As more
fully discussed in Note 1, the combined financial statements of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements of AT&T Corp.

1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

  BACKGROUND

     On October 25, 2000, AT&T announced a restructuring plan designed to fully
separate or issue separately tracked stocks intended to reflect the financial
performance and economic value of each of AT&T's four major operating units.
Upon completion of the plan, AT&T Wireless, AT&T Broadband, AT&T Business and
AT&T Consumer will all be represented by asset-based or tracking stocks.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. will be separated from AT&T as an
asset-based stock however, it will become the owner of the AT&T brand, which it
will license to the other companies. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. includes
the AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer Services Group portions of
AT&T, along with certain corporate activities. AT&T Business Services Group
provides long distance, local, data and Internet Protocol (IP) networking to
small and medium-sized businesses, large domestic and multinational businesses
and government agencies. AT&T Consumer Services Group provides to residential
customers a variety of any-distance communications services including long
distance, local toll (intrastate calls outside the immediate local area) and
Internet access. AT&T Consumer Services Group also provides prepaid
calling-card, operator-handled calling services and local phone service in
certain areas. AT&T Consumer Services Group will be separately represented by a
tracking stock, which is expected to be fully distributed to AT&T shareholders
in the second half of 2001.

  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is an integrated business of AT&T. The
combined financial statements reflect the results of operations, financial
position, changes in combined attributed net assets and cash flows of AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. as if it were a separate entity for all periods
presented. The financial information included herein may not necessarily reflect
the combined results of operations, financial position, changes in combined
attributed net assets and cash flows of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. had
it been a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. The
combined financial statements of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. should be
read in conjunction with AT&T's Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31,
2000.

     The combined financial statements of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
combined financial statements of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. reflect the
assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses directly attributable to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc., as well as allocations deemed reasonable by
management, to present the results of operations, financial position and cash
flows of AT&T Communications Services, Inc. on a stand-alone basis. The
allocation methodologies have been described within the notes to the combined
financial statements where appropriate. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions within the AT&T Communications Services, Inc. have been
eliminated. Earnings per share disclosure has not been presented as AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. is a business unit of AT&T.

AT&T Communications of Southern States, Inc., AT&T Communications of Illinois,

California, Inc., AT&T Network Procurement LP, AT&T Global Network Services
Inc., AT&T Global Network Services Group LLC, VLT Corporation, AT&T Latin
America Consolidated, US Holding Co LLC and certain attributed assets of AT&T.

     Debt has been allocated to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. based on the
future view of AT&T's debt position after taking into account the significant
deleveraging activities of AT&T. This allocation took into account the following
factors: prospective financing requirements, desired stand-alone credit profile,
working capital and capital expenditure requirements and comparable company
profiles. Increases in historical debt levels were, in general, driven primarily
by historical cash flows generated by this entity in relation to total AT&T.
Such cash outflows include acquisitions, dividend payments, capital
expenditures, offset by cash flow from operations. For purposes of this
allocation, certain "corporate" activities were deemed to be funded by this
entity by contributing proceeds to the parent. These activities included the
repurchase of common shares by AT&T and cash payments associated with the TCI
Merger and MediaOne acquisition. Similarly, certain corporate activities that
resulted in cash flow to AT&T were deemed to be attributed to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. These activities are reflected within net
contributions (to) from AT&T in the combined statements of cash flows. At or
before the time of the spin-off, when AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is
separated from historical AT&T, we plan to seek to transfer the previously
allocated indebtedness from AT&T to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. This may
be accomplished through a variety of measures that may result in increased costs
and additional covenants on AT&T Communications Services, Inc. The historical
interest expense on the allocated debt was calculated based on a rate intended
to be equivalent to the rate AT&T Communications Services, Inc. would have
received if it were a stand-alone entity. Due to AT&T's deleveraging activities
and expected positive cash flow from operations, the $31.1 billion of debt at
December 31, 2000 is expected to be significantly lower in the future. AT&T's
expected deleveraging activities that relate to AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. include: $3 billion retained portion of AT&T Wireless Services; $3.6
billion of the proceeds from the DoCoMo investment in AT&T preferred stock,
which will be attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.; and $0.7 billion
of gross proceeds from the sale of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
investment in Japan Telecom. Finally, AT&T has made no final determination as to
the allocation of proceeds from the sale of shares of AT&T Broadband Group
tracking stock, between AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T Broadband
Group.

     Net contributions to or from AT&T are assumed to be settled in cash.

     General corporate overhead related to AT&T's corporate headquarters and
common support divisions has been allocated to AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. as it was not deemed practicable to specifically identify such common costs
to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. These allocations were based on the ratio
of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s external costs and expenses to AT&T's
consolidated external costs and expenses. The costs of these services charged to
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. are not necessarily indicative of the costs
that would have been incurred if AT&T Communications Services, Inc. had
performed these functions entirely as a stand-alone entity, nor are they
indicative of costs that will be charged or incurred in the future. However,
management believes such allocations are reasonable.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     The combined provision for income taxes, related tax payments or refunds,
and deferred tax balances of AT&T have been allocated to AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. based principally on the taxable income and tax credits directly
attributable to AT&T Communications Services, Inc., essentially a stand-alone
presentation. These allocations reflect AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s
contribution to AT&T's consolidated taxable income and the consolidated tax
liability and tax credit position. AT&T and its affiliates and AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. have entered into a tax sharing agreement that
provides for tax sharing payments based on the tax expense or tax benefits of a
hypothetical affiliated group consisting of AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. Based on this agreement, the consolidated tax
liability before credits is allocated between the groups, based on each group's
contribution to the consolidated taxable income of the hypothetical group.
Consolidated tax credits of the hypothetical group are allocated between groups
based on each group's contribution to each tax credit.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  REVENUE RECOGNITION

     We recognize long distance and local services revenue based upon minutes of
traffic processed or contracted fee schedules. We recognize other products and
services revenue when the products are delivered and accepted by customers and
when services are provided in accordance with contract terms. Customer
activation fees, along with the related costs, are deferred and amortized over
the customer relationship period. During 2000, we adopted Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements". The adoption did not have a material
impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

  ADVERTISING AND PROMOTIONAL COSTS

     We expense costs of advertising and promotions, including cash incentives
used to acquire customers, as incurred. Advertising and promotional expenses
were $1,052, $1,280 and $1,576 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Of these
amounts, $288, $320 and $622 were cash incentives to acquire customers in 2000,
1999 and 1998, respectively.

  FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

     For operations outside the United States that prepare financial statements
in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, we translate income statement amounts
at average exchange rates for the year, and we translate assets and liabilities
at year-end exchange rates. We present these translation adjustments as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income within combined attributed
net assets. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in
results of operations.

  INCOME TAXES

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is not a separate taxable entity for
federal and state income tax purposes and its results of operations are included
in the consolidated federal and state income tax returns of AT&T and its
affiliates. The provision for income taxes is based on AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s contribution to the overall income tax liability or benefit of
AT&T and its affiliates as described in Note 1.

                        (AN INTEGRATED BUSINESS OF AT&T)

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

  INVESTMENT TAX CREDITS

     We amortize investment tax credits as a reduction to the provision for
income taxes over the useful lives of the assets that produced the credits.

  CASH EQUIVALENTS

     We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of
generally three months or less to be cash equivalents.

  PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

     We state property, plant and equipment at cost and determine depreciation
based upon the assets' estimated useful lives using either the group or unit
method. The useful lives of communications and network equipment range from
three to 15 years. The useful lives of other equipment ranges from three to
seven years. The useful lives of buildings and improvements range from 10 to 40
years. The group method is used for most depreciable assets, including the
majority of the communications and network equipment. When we sell or retire
assets depreciated using the group method, the cost is deducted from property,
plant and equipment and charged to accumulated depreciation, without recognition
of a gain or loss. The unit method is primarily used for large computer systems
and support assets. When we sell assets that were depreciated using the unit
method, we include the related gains or losses in other income.

     We use accelerated depreciation methods primarily for certain
high-technology computer-processing equipment and digital equipment used in the
telecommunications network, except for switching equipment placed in service
before 1989, where a straight-line method is used. All other plant and
equipment, including capitalized software, is depreciated on a straight-line
basis.

  GOODWILL

     Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net
assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the purchase
method. We amortize goodwill on a straight-line basis over the periods
benefited, ranging from seven to 40 years.

  INVESTMENTS

     Investments in which we exercise significant influence but do not control
(generally a 20% to 50% ownership interest) are accounted for under the equity
method of accounting. This represents the majority of our investments.
Investments in which we have less than a 20% ownership interest and in which
there is no significant influence are accounted for under the cost method of
accounting.

  SOFTWARE CAPITALIZATION

     Certain direct software development costs are capitalized, including
external direct costs of material and services, and payroll costs for employees
devoting time to the software projects. These costs are included within other
assets and are amortized over a period not to exceed five years beginning when
the asset is substantially ready for use. Costs incurred during the preliminary
project stage, as well as maintenance and training costs, are expensed as
incurred. AT&T Communications

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Services, Inc. also capitalizes initial operating-system software costs and
amortizes them over the life of the associated hardware.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also capitalizes costs associated with
the development of application software incurred from the time technological
feasibility is established until the software is ready to provide service to
customers. These capitalized costs are included in property, plant and equipment
and are amortized over a useful life not to exceed five years.

  VALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

     Long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment, goodwill,
investments and software are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If
the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the
carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between
the fair value and carrying value of the asset. In addition, in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets", we
continue to evaluate the amortization periods to determine whether events or
circumstances warrant revised amortization periods.

  DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     We use various financial instruments, including derivative financial
instruments, for purposes other than trading. We do not use derivative financial
instruments for speculative purposes. Derivatives, used as part of our
risk-management strategy, must be designated at inception as a hedge and
measured for effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis. Gains and
losses related to qualifying hedges of foreign currency firm commitments are
deferred in current assets or liabilities and recognized as part of the
underlying transactions as they occur. All other foreign exchange contracts are
marked to market on a current basis and the respective gains or losses are
recognized in other income. Cash flows from financial instruments are classified
in the combined statements of cash flows under the same categories as the cash
flows from the related assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions.

  CASH FLOWS

     For purposes of the combined statements of cash flows, transactions between
AT&T Communications Services, Inc. and AT&T, other than dividends, have been
accounted for as having been settled in cash at the time the transaction was
recorded by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

  USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and revenue and expenses during the period reported. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for
certain items such as long-term contracts, allowance for doubtful accounts,
depreciation and amortization, employee benefit plans, taxes, restructuring
reserves and contingencies.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

  CONCENTRATIONS

     As of December 31, 2000, we do not have any significant concentration of
business transacted with a particular customer, supplier or lender that could,
if suddenly eliminated, severely impact our operations. We also do not have a
concentration of available sources of labor, services, or other rights that
could, if suddenly eliminated, severely impact our operations.

4. MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS, VENTURES AND DISPOSITIONS

  CONCERT

     On January 5, 2000, AT&T and British Telecommunications plc (BT) announced
financial closure of Concert, their global communications joint venture. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. contributed all of its international
gateway-to-gateway assets, as well as the economic value of approximately 270
multinational customers specifically targeted for direct sales by Concert.
AT&T's investment in Concert was attributed to AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.

  ACC EUROPE

     On November 5, 1999, AT&T sold ACC Corp. (ACC) in Europe, including ACC's
principal operations in the United Kingdom as well as ACC's operating companies
in France, Germany and Italy, to WORLDxCHANGE Communications. The results of ACC
were attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. were required to dispose of this investment pursuant to a
government mandate since it would have competed directly with Concert. The
transaction resulted in a pretax loss of $179.

  IBM GLOBAL NETWORK

     On April 30, 1999, AT&T completed its acquisition of the IBM Global Network
business (renamed AT&T Global Network Services or AGNS) and its assets in the
United States. The non-U.S. acquisitions occurred in phases throughout 1999 as
legal and regulatory requirements were met in each of the countries in which the
business operates. Under the terms of the agreement, AT&T acquired the global
network of IBM, and the two companies entered into outsourcing agreements with
each other. IBM is outsourcing a significant portion of its global networking
needs to AT&T Communications Services, Inc., and AT&T Communications Services,
Inc. is outsourcing certain applications-processing and data-center-management
operations to IBM. AT&T's purchase of AGNS was attributed to and funded by AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.
Accordingly, the operating results of AGNS have been included in the
accompanying combined financial statements since the date of acquisition. The
pro forma impact of AGNS on historical AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
results are not material.

  TELEPORT COMMUNICATIONS GROUP INC.

     On July 23, 1998, AT&T completed the merger with Teleport Communications
Group Inc. (TCG) pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger dated January 8,
1998. Each share of TCG

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

common stock was exchanged for 1.4145 shares of AT&T common stock, resulting in
the issuance of 272.4 million shares in the transaction. AT&T's merger with TCG
was attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. The merger was accounted
for as a pooling of interests, and accordingly, AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s results of operations, financial position and cash flows reflect the
results of TCG for all periods presented. In 1998, we recognized $85 of merger-
related expenses. Premerger TCG revenue was $455, and net losses were $118, for
the six months ended June 30, 1998. Elimination entries between AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. and TCG were not material.

5. NET RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

     During 2000, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded $759 of net
restructuring and other charges, which included $668 for restructuring and exit
costs associated with cost reduction initiatives, and $91 related to the
government-mandated disposition of AT&T Communications (U.K.) Ltd., which would
have competed directly with Concert.

     The charge for restructuring and exit plans was primarily due to headcount
reductions, mainly in network operations and AT&T Business Services Group,
including the consolidation of customer-care and call centers.

     Included in exit costs was $442 of cash termination benefits associated
with the separation of approximately 6,200 employees. Approximately one-half of
the separations were management employees and one-half were nonmanagement
employees. Approximately 5,600 employee separations were related to involuntary
terminations and approximately 600 to voluntary terminations.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also recorded $62 of network lease and
other contract termination costs associated with penalties incurred as part of
notifying vendors of the termination of these contracts during the year.

     The following table displays the activity and balances of the restructuring
reserve account:



                                                                 TYPE OF COST

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     Deductions reflect cash payments of $245, $209 and $324 for 1998, 1999 and
2000, respectively. These payments included cash termination benefits of $186,
$118 and $272, respectively, which were primarily funded through cash from
operations. Deductions also reflect noncash utilization of $420, $43 and $140
for 1998, 1999 and 2000 respectively. Noncash utilization included deferred
severance payments primarily related to executives, and a reversal in 1998 of
$348 related to the 1995 restructuring plan. Nearly 75% of the employees
affected by the 1999 and 2000 restructuring charges have left their positions as
of December 31, 2000.

     Also included in restructuring and exit costs in 2000 was $144 of benefit
curtailment costs associated with employee separations as part of these exit
plans. Further, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded an asset impairment
charge of $18 million related to the write-down of unrecoverable assets in
certain businesses where the carrying value was no longer supported by estimated
future cash flows.

     During 1999, we recorded $331 of net restructuring and other charges.

     A $145 charge for restructuring and exit costs was recorded in conjunction
with an initiative to reduce costs. The restructuring and exit plans primarily
focused on the maximization of synergies through headcount reductions in AT&T
Business Services Group including network operations and the consolidation of
customer-care and call centers.

     Included in exit costs was $142 of cash termination benefits associated
with the separation of approximately 2,800 employees as part of voluntary and
involuntary termination plans. Approximately one-half of the separations were
management employees and one-half were nonmanagement employees. Approximately
1,700 employee separations were related to involuntary terminations and
approximately 1,100 to voluntary terminations.

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also recorded losses of $307 related to
the government-mandated disposition of certain international businesses that
would have competed directly with Concert. In addition, AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. recorded benefits of $121 related to the settlement of pension
obligations for former employees who accepted AT&T's Voluntary Retirement
Incentive Plan (VRIP) offer.

     During 1998, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. recorded $2,514 of net
restructuring and other charges. The bulk of the charge was associated with an
overall cost-reduction program and the approximately 15,300 management employees
who accepted the VRIP offer. A restructuring charge of $2,724 was composed of
$2,254 and $169 for pension and postretirement special-termination benefits,
respectively, $263 of benefit plan curtailment losses and $38 of other
administrative costs. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. also recorded charges
of $125 for related facility costs and $150 for executive-separation costs.
These charges were partially offset by benefits of $940 as AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. settled pension benefit obligations of 13,700 of the total VRIP
employees. In addition, the VRIP charges were partially offset by the reversal
of $256 of 1995 business restructuring reserves primarily resulting from the
overlap of VRIP on certain 1995 restructuring initiatives.

     Also included in the 1998 net restructuring and other charges were asset
impairment charges totaling $718, of which $633 was related to our decision not
to pursue Total Service Resale (TSR) as a local service strategy. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. also recorded an $85 asset impairment charge
related to the write-down of unrecoverable assets in certain international
operations where the

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

carrying value was no longer supported by future cash flows. This charge was
made in connection with the review of certain operations that would have
competed directly with Concert.

     Additionally, $85 of merger related expenses were recorded in 1998 in
connection with the Teleport Communications Group, Inc. (TCG) merger, which was
accounted for as a pooling of interests. Partially offsetting this charge was a
$92 reversal of the 1995 restructuring reserve. This reserve reflected reserves
no longer deemed necessary. The reversal primarily included separation costs
attributed to projects completed at a cost lower than originally anticipated.
Consistent with the three-year plan, the 1995 restructuring initiatives were
substantially completed by the end of 1998.

6. DEBT OBLIGATIONS

     As discussed in Note 1 to the combined financial statements, AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. had notes payable to AT&T in the amount of $30,749
and $16,205, at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Of these amounts,
$22,146 and $7,165, respectively, were short-term notes payable to AT&T.
Interest expense on notes payable to AT&T was $1,554, $714 and $210, for the
years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Included within
other current liabilities was $194 and $121 of short-term debt, at December 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively. Included within other long-term liabilities and
deferred credits was $143 and $106 of long-term debt at December 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively. These third party obligations consist primarily of notes
payable on demand, capital leases and various medium term notes with interest
rates ranging from 5.38%-13.44% and various maturities through 2020.

7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     In the normal course of business, we use various financial instruments,
including derivative financial instruments, for purposes other than trading. We
do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. These
instruments include letters of credit, guarantees of debt, foreign currency
exchange contracts and equity hedges. Collateral is generally not required for
these types of instruments.

     By their nature, all such instruments involve risk, including the credit
risk of nonperformance by counterparties, and our maximum potential loss may
exceed the amount recognized in our balance sheet. However, at December 31, 2000
and 1999, in management's opinion, there was no significant risk of loss in the
event of nonperformance of the counterparties to these financial instruments. We
control our exposure to credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits and
monitoring procedures. We do not have any significant exposure to any individual
customer or counterparty, nor do we have any major concentration of credit risk
related to any financial instruments.

  LETTERS OF CREDIT

     Letters of credit are purchased guarantees that ensure our performance or
payment to third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions and
do not create any additional risk to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. These
letters of credit were attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

  GUARANTEES OF DEBT

     From time to time, the debt of AT&T subsidiaries and certain joint ventures
is guaranteed. In connection with the restructuring of AT&T in 1996, AT&T issued
guarantees for certain debt obligations of AT&T's former subsidiaries AT&T
Capital Corp. and NCR Corp. These guarantees were attributed to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. The amount of guaranteed debt associated with AT&T
Capital Corp. and NCR Corp., was $48 and $56 at December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

  FOREIGN EXCHANGE

     AT&T enters into foreign currency exchange contracts, including forward and
option contracts, to manage our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates
related to foreign-currency-denominated transactions. Certain contracts were
attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. in 1999. In 1999, this
consisted principally of European Union currency (Euro) and British pounds
sterling contracts related to the reimbursement to foreign telephone companies
for their portion of the revenue billed by AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
for calls placed in the United States to a foreign country and other foreign
currency payables and receivables. In addition, we are subject to foreign
exchange risk related to other foreign-currency-denominated transactions.

  EQUITY HEDGES

     AT&T enters into equity hedges to manage our exposure to changes in equity
prices associated with stock appreciation rights of affiliated companies.
Certain equity hedges were attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.

  FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS INCLUDING DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS

     The following table summarizes the notional amounts of material financial
instruments. The notional amounts represent agreed-upon amounts on which
calculations of dollars to be exchanged are based. They do not represent amounts
exchanged by the parties and, therefore, are not a measure of our exposure. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s exposure is limited to the fair value of the
contracts with a positive fair value plus interest receivable, if any, at the
reporting date.

exchange forward contracts was not significant in all periods presented.

8. PENSION, POSTRETIREMENT AND OTHER EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

     AT&T sponsors noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering the
majority of our employees. Pension benefits for management employees are
principally based on career-average pay. Pension benefits for occupational
employees are not directly related to pay. Pension trust contributions are made
to trust funds held for the sole benefit of plan participants. AT&T's benefit
plans for current and certain future retirees include health-care benefits, life

     On January 26, 1998, AT&T offered a VRIP to employees who were eligible
participants in the AT&T Management Pension Plan. Approximately 15,300
management employees accepted the VRIP offer. In connection with the VRIP, AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. recorded pretax charges in 1998 for pension and
postretirement plan special-termination benefits of $2,254 and $169,
respectively. We also recorded pension and postretirement plan pretax charges of
$120 and $143, respectively, which are included within net curtailment (gains)
losses in 1998. The special-termination benefits reflect the value of pension
benefit improvements and expanded eligibility for postretirement benefits. The
VRIP also permitted employees to choose either a total lump-sum distribution of
their pension benefits or periodic future annuity payments.

     As of December 31, 1999, all 15,300 employees had terminated employment
under the VRIP. AT&T Communications Services, Inc. has settled the pension
obligations covering about 15,100 of these employees, the remainder of which
either chose to defer commencing their pension benefits or elected to receive an
annuity distribution. Lump-sum pension settlements totaling $5.2 billion,
including a portion of the special-pension termination benefits referred to
above, resulted in settlement gains of $121 and $940 recorded in 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

     Our nonqualified pension plan had an unfunded accumulated benefit
obligation of $104 and $118 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Our
postretirement health and telephone concession benefit plans had accumulated
postretirement benefit obligations of $4,247 and $4,021 at December 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively, which were in excess of plan assets of $1,408 and $1,635 at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     The assumptions used in the measurement of the pension and postretirement
benefit obligations are shown in the following table:



                                                       AT DECEMBER 31,
                                                     --------------------

WEIGHTED-AVERAGE ASSUMPTIONS:
Discount rate......................................  7.5%    7.75%   6.5%
Expected return on plan assets.....................  9.5%     9.5%   9.5%
Rate of compensation increase......................  4.5%     4.5%   4.5%


     We assumed a rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health-care
benefits (the health-care cost trend rate) of 7.6%. This rate was assumed to
gradually decline after 2000 to 4.5% by the year 2010 and then remain level.
Assumed health-care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts
reported for the health-care plans. A one percentage point increase or decrease
in the assumed health-care cost trend rate would increase or decrease the total
of the service and interest-cost components of net periodic postretirement
health-care benefit cost by $9 and $9, respectively, and would increase or
decrease the health-care component of the accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation by $121 and $119, respectively.

     We also sponsor savings plans for the majority of our employees. The plans
allow employees to contribute a portion of their pretax and/or after-tax income
in accordance with specified guidelines. We match a percentage of the employee
contributions up to certain limits. Our contributions amounted to $150 in 2000,
$159 in 1999 and $173 in 1998.

9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

     Under the AT&T 1997 Long-term Incentive Program (Program), which was
effective June 1, 1997, and amended on May 19, 1999 and on March 14, 2000, AT&T
grants stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and other awards on
AT&T common stock.

     Under the Program, there were 150 million shares of AT&T common stock
available for grant with a maximum of 22.5 million common shares that could be
used for awards other than stock options. Beginning with January 1, 2000, the
remaining shares available for grant at December 31 of the prior year, plus
1.75% of the shares of AT&T common stock outstanding on January 1 of each year,
become available for grant. There is a maximum of 37.5 million shares that may
be used for awards other than stock options. The exercise price of any stock
option is equal to the stock price when the option is granted. Generally, the
options vest over three or four years and are exercisable up to 10 years from
the date of grant.

     Under the Program, performance share units are awarded to key employees in
the form of either common stock or cash at the end of a three-year period, based
on AT&T's total shareholder return and certain financial-performance targets.
Under the 1987 Long-term Incentive Program, performance share units with the
same terms were also awarded to key employees based on AT&T's return-to-equity
performance compared with a target.

     Under the AT&T 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (Plan), which was
effective July 1, 1996, AT&T is authorized to sell up to 75 million shares of
AT&T common stock to its eligible employees. Under the terms of the Plan,
employees may have up to 10% of their earnings withheld to purchase AT&T's
common stock. The purchase price of the stock on the date of exercise is 85% of
the average high and low sale prices of shares on the New York Stock Exchange
for that day. Under the Plan, AT&T sold approximately 4 million, 2 million and 3
million shares to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. employees in 2000, 1999 and
1998, respectively.

     AT&T applies APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for its plans.
Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for its stock-based
compensation plans other than for performance-based and restricted stock awards
and stock appreciation rights (SARs). Compensation costs charged against AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s income were $15, $96 and $157 in 2000, 1999 and
1998, respectively.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     AT&T and AT&T Communications Services, Inc. have adopted the
disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." If AT&T Communications Services, Inc. had elected to recognize
compensation costs based on the fair value at the date of grant for awards
granted to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. employees in 2000, 1999 and 1998,
consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, AT&T Communications Services,
Inc.'s net income would have been as follows:



                                                  FOR THE YEARS ENDED
                                                      DECEMBER 31,

Net income...................................  $7,800    $7,927    $4,826


     The pro forma effect on net income for 1998 may not be representative of
the pro forma effect on net income of future years because the SFAS No. 123
method of accounting for pro forma compensation expense has not been applied to
options granted prior to January 1, 1995.

     The weighted-average fair values at date of grant for AT&T common stock
options granted to AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s employees during 2000,
1999 and 1998 were $12.46, $15.65 and $9.74, respectively, and were estimated
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted-average risk-free
interest rates applied for 2000, 1999 and 1998 were 6.29%, 5.19% and 5.35%,
respectively. The following assumptions were applied for 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively: (i) expected dividend yields of 1.6%, 1.7%, and 2.1%, (ii)
expected volatility rates of 33.5%, 28.6% and 23.8% and (iii) expected lives of
4.9 years, 4.4 years, and 4.5 years.

10. INCOME TAXES

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc. is not a separate taxable entity for
federal and state income tax purposes and its results of operations are included
in the consolidated federal and state income tax returns of AT&T and its
affiliates, as described in Note 1 to the combined financial statements. AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. provision for income taxes has been prepared as if
the entity prepared separate tax returns for federal and state income tax
purposes.

     In addition, we also recorded current and deferred income tax expenses
(benefits) related to minority interest and net equity (earnings) losses on
equity investments in the amounts of $(206) and $147 in 2000, $(170) and $139 in
1999, and $51 and $(119) in 1998, respectively.

     Deferred income tax liabilities are taxes we expect to pay in future
periods. Similarly, deferred income tax assets are recorded for expected
reductions in taxes payable in future periods. Deferred income taxes arise
because of differences in the book and tax bases of certain assets and
liabilities.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     In the normal course of business we are subject to proceedings, lawsuits
and other claims, including proceedings under laws and regulations related to
environmental and other matters. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties,
and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. Consequently, we are unable to
ascertain the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial
impact with respect to these matters at December 31, 2000. These matters could
affect the

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

operating results of any one quarter when resolved in future periods. However,
we believe that after final disposition, any monetary liability or financial
impact to us beyond that provided for at year-end would not be material to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.'s annual combined financial statements.

     AT&T leases land, buildings and equipment through contracts, which have
been attributed to AT&T Communications Services, Inc., that expire in various
years through 2019. Rental expense under operating leases was $587 in 2000, $554
in 1999 and $561 in 1998. The total of minimum rentals to be received in the
future under noncancelable operating subleases as of December 31, 2000, was
$209. The following table shows our future minimum commitments due under
noncancelable operating leases at December 31, 2000:

2005........................................................     163
Later years.................................................     542
Total minimum lease payments................................  $1,792


     Through a joint venture (70% owned by AT&T and 30% owned by BT), AT&T and
BT have a 31% ownership of AT&T Canada Corp. as a result of the 1999 merger
between AT&T Canada Corp. and MetroNet Communications, Corp. In connection with
this merger, the AT&T and BT joint venture has the right to call, or arrange for
another entity to call, the remaining 69% of AT&T Canada for the greater of
Cdn$40.56 per share which represented the projected value as of December 31,
2000, with an accretion of 4% each quarter beginning June 30, 2000, or the then-
appraised fair market value. If AT&T does not exercise its call rights by June
30, 2003, the shares would be put up for auction, and the AT&T and BT joint
venture would have to make the shareholders whole for the difference between the
proceeds received in auction and the greater of the fair market value or the
accreted value. The exact timing of any purchase will likely be partially
dependent upon the future status of Canadian foreign-ownership regulations.
AT&T's ownership interest in AT&T Canada has been attributed to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc.

12. SEGMENT REPORTING

     AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s results are segmented according to the
way we manage our business: AT&T Business Services and AT&T Consumer Services
Group.

     AT&T Business Services Group offers a variety of global communications
services including long distance, local, and data and Internet protocol (IP)
networking to small and medium-sized businesses, large domestic and
multinational businesses and government agencies. Business Services is also a
provider of voice, data and IP transport to service resellers (wholesale
services). Also included in AT&T Business Services Group is AT&T Solutions, our
outsourcing and network-management business.

     AT&T Consumer Services Group segment provides a variety of any-distance
communications services including long distance, local toll (intrastate calls
outside the immediate local area) and

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Internet access to residential customers. In addition, AT&T Consumer Services
Group provides prepaid calling-card and operator-handled calling services. Local
phone service is also provided in certain areas.

     The balance of AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s operations is included
in a "Corporate and Other" category. This category reflects corporate staff
functions and the elimination of transactions between segments.

     Prepaid pension assets and corporate-owned or leased real estate are
generally held at the corporate level and, therefore, are included in the
Corporate and Other category. Capital additions for each segment include capital
expenditures for property, plant and equipment, additions to investments and
software development.

     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2). AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the
primary financial measure is earnings before interest and taxes, including
pretax minority interest and net pretax losses from equity investments (EBIT).

     Generally, AT&T Communications Services, Inc.'s intersegment
telecommunications transactions are accounted for at market prices.

14. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." Among
other provisions, it requires that entities recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair
values of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the
derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The effective date for
this standard was delayed via the issuance of SFAS No. 137. The effective date
for SFAS No. 133 is now for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, though
earlier adoption is encouraged and retroactive application is prohibited. For
AT&T Communications Services, Inc., this means that the standard must be adopted
no later than January 1, 2001.

     In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," as an amendment to SFAS
No. 133. This statement provides clarification with regard to certain
implementation issues under SFAS No. 133 on specific types of hedges.

     On January 1, 2001, AT&T Communications Services, Inc. adopted SFAS No.
133. AT&T Communication Services, Inc. recorded a cumulative effect of an
accounting change, net of applicable taxes, of approximately $130 million of
income, primarily attributable to our warrant portfolio. The impact of the
adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, on AT&T Communications
Services, Inc.'s future results of operations is dependent upon the fair values
of our derivatives and related financial instruments and could result in
pronounced quarterly fluctuations in other income in future periods.

     In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities -- a
Replacement of FASB Statement No. 125". This statement provides accounting and
reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
extinguishments of liabilities. Under these standards, after a transfer of
financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it
controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when
control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished.
This statement provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of
financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. This
statement is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. AT&T
Communications Services Inc. does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 140
will have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or
cash flows.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On April 27, 2001, AT&T completed the sale of its stake in Japan Telecom
Co. Ltd to Vodafone Group plc. The net pre-tax gain attributable to AT&T
Communications Services, Inc. is expected to be approximately $470.

     On April 26, 2001, AT&T initiated a 364-day accounts receivable
securitization program providing for up to $500 of funding. Under the program, a
small percentage of accounts receivable related to AT&T Consumer Services Group
will be sold on a discounted, revolving basis, to a special purpose,
wholly-owned subsidiary, which assigns interests in such receivables to
unrelated third-party financing entities.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     On March 23, 2001, AT&T signed an agreement to acquire substantially all of
the assets of NorthPoint Communications Group, Inc. valued at approximately
$135. The acquisition includes all of Northpoint's co-locations nationwide,
certain network equipment, systems and support software and related assets,
including two leased buildings. The purchase of NorthPoint Communications Group,

                 CONSOLIDATING CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     In conjunction with the issuance of AT&T Wireless Group and Liberty Media
Group tracking stocks, and the proposed issuance of AT&T Broadband and AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stocks, AT&T has separated for financial
reporting purposes in all periods the AT&T Common Stock Group, Liberty Media
Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group, AT&T Broadband Group and AT&T Wireless
Group. Below is the consolidating financial information reflecting the
businesses of these individual groups, including the allocation of expenses
between the groups in accordance with our allocation policies, as well as other
related party transactions such as sales of services between groups and interest
income and expense on intercompany borrowings. The AT&T Common Stock Group
presented below excludes its retained portion of the value of any of the
tracking stocks. AT&T does not have a controlling financial interest in Liberty
Media Group for financial accounting purposes; therefore, our ownership in
Liberty Media Group is reflected as an investment accounted for under the equity
method and is reflected as such in the consolidating financial statements below.

     AT&T Wireless Group, AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group
purchase long distance and other network-related services from AT&T at
market-based prices and such amounts are eliminated in consolidation. Prior to
the offering of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, the capital structure of
AT&T Wireless Group had been assumed based upon AT&T's historical capital ratio
adjusted for certain items. Intercompany interest rates are intended to be
substantially equivalent to the interest rate that AT&T Wireless Group would be
able to obtain or receive if it were a stand-alone entity. Debt has been
allocated to AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T Broadband Group, based on the
future view of AT&T's debt position after taking into account the significant
deleveraging activities of AT&T. This allocation took into account the following
factors: prospective financing requirements, desired stand-alone credit profile,
working capital and capital expenditure requirements and comparable company
profiles. At or before the time of the spin-off, when AT&T Communications
Services, Inc. is separated from historical AT&T, we plan to seek to transfer
the indebtedness allocated to AT&T Business Services Group and AT&T Consumer
Services Group from historical AT&T to AT&T Communications Services, Inc. We may
seek to accomplish this through a variety of measures that may result in
increased costs and additional covenants on AT&T Communications Services, Inc.
The historical interest expense on the allocated debt was calculated based on a
rate intended to be equivalent to the rate AT&T Consumer Services Group and AT&T
Broadband Group would have received if each was a stand-alone entity. General
corporate overhead related to AT&T's corporate headquarters and common support
divisions has been allocated to the groups based on the ratio of each group's
external costs and expenses to AT&T's consolidated external costs and expenses,
adjusted for any functions that any group performs on its own. The consolidated
income tax provision, related tax payments or refunds, and deferred tax balances
of AT&T have been allocated to the groups based principally on the taxable
income and tax credits directly attributable to each group.

     Pursuant to the Inter-Group agreement, AT&T does not allocate general
overhead expenses to Liberty Media Group and only charges Liberty Media Group
for specific services that Liberty Media Group receives from AT&T pursuant to
service agreements or similar arrangements. Additionally, as Liberty Media Group
operates independent of AT&T, there is no cash or debt allocated to them.

          UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements set forth
below for AT&T give effect to

     - The AT&T Wireless Group Exchange Offer

     - the DoCoMo investment

     - the AT&T Wireless Group distribution (collectively, the AT&T wireless
       events)

     - the Liberty Media Group distribution

     - the AT&T Communications Services distribution ("AT&T Business Services
       and AT&T Consumer Services")

(collectively, the AT&T restructuring events), as if such events had been
completed on January 1, 1998 for income statement purposes, and at December 31,
2000 for balance sheet purposes, subject to the assumptions and adjustments in
the accompanying notes to the pro forma financial statements. The unaudited pro
forma condensed combined financial statements set forth below for AT&T also give
effect to the TCI and MediaOne mergers as if they had been completed on January
1, 1998 for income statement purposes. Upon receipt of necessary approvals, AT&T
will report AT&T Wireless Group and AT&T Communications Services as Discontinued
Operations, in accordance with APB Opinion No. 30 "Reporting the Results of
Operations -- Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and
Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions" (APB
30). For accounting purposes, the spin-off/split-off (the "distribution") of the
AT&T Wireless Group and the split-off of AT&T Consumer Services are considered
non pro-rata distributions and are expected to be recorded at fair value
resulting in the recognition of gains on the remaining AT&T entity upon the
distribution date. The split-off of Liberty Media Group and the spin-off of AT&T
Business Services will be pro-rata distributions and are therefore recorded at
historical cost. The continuing operations of AT&T after the necessary approvals
are received for the distribution of AT&T Wireless Group, Liberty Media Group
and AT&T Communications Services will consist solely of the AT&T Broadband
Group. See the Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial
Statements for additional disclosure of potential material nonrecurring charges
and credits directly attributable to the events as noted above which are not
reflected in the pro forma financial statements.

     The pro forma adjustments included herein are based on available
information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable and
are described in the accompanying notes to the pro forma financial statements.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not
necessarily represent what AT&T's financial position or results of operations
would have been had the TCI or MediaOne mergers, the AT&T wireless events or the
distributions of Liberty Media Group and AT&T Communications Services occurred
on such dates or to project AT&T's financial position or results of operations
at or for any future date or period. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the unaudited pro forma financial
information have been made. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial
statements of AT&T, AT&T Wireless Group, Liberty Media Group and AT&T
Communications Services, incorporated by reference or included herein.

     After obtaining shareholder and other approvals, AT&T intends to dividend
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock to current AT&T shareholders
representing 100% of the financial performance and economic value of AT&T
Consumer Services Group. Due to the fact that this separate class of stock is
being created in contemplation of the subsequent distribution, the split-off of
AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock will be recorded at fair value
resulting in the recognition of a nonrecurring gain on the remaining AT&T
entity. The fair value of AT&T Consumer

                                      D-108
   388

Services Group is estimated to be between $2 billion and $5 billion. This fair
value estimate as compared to the historical book value of AT&T Consumer
Services Group of approximately ($2.5) billion yields a gain on distribution of
between $4.5 billion and $7.5 billion. The estimate of fair value is not
intended to represent management's approximation of the market value of the AT&T
Consumer Services Group tracking stock. Such value will be determined by, among
other things, the results of operations and financial condition of AT&T Consumer
Services Group and market conditions at the time that AT&T Consumer Services
Group tracking stock is issued. AT&T Consumer Services Group tracking stock is
expected to be split-off in conjunction with the spin-off of the AT&T Business
Services. The distribution of AT&T Business Services is a pro-rata distribution
and will therefore be accounted for at historical cost. After the distribution,
AT&T Consumer Services Group is expected to remain a tracking stock of AT&T
Communications Services.

     On January 22, 2001, DoCoMo invested approximately $9.8 billion for shares
of a new class of AT&T preferred stock that are generally economically
equivalent to 406,255,889 shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock, and are
intended to reflect approximately 16% of the financial performance and economic
value of AT&T Wireless Group. As part of this investment, DoCoMo also received
five-year warrants to purchase the equivalent of an additional 41,748,273 shares
of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock at $35 per share, and DoCoMo and AT&T
Wireless Services formed a strategic alliance to develop the next generation of
mobile multimedia services on a global-standard, high-speed wireless network. Of
the 406,255,889 AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock share equivalents issued to
DoCoMo, 228,128,307 shares represented new share equivalents at $27.00 each, and
the remaining 178,127,582 share equivalents represented a reduction of AT&T
Common Stock Group's retained portion of the value of AT&T Wireless Group at
$20.50 each. Accordingly, AT&T Common Stock Group retained $3.6 billion of the
proceeds of the DoCoMo investment and allocated $6.2 billion to AT&T Wireless
Group. The DoCoMo tracking stock will convert into AT&T Wireless Group tracking
stock immediately prior to the split-off at a rate of 500 to 1.

     AT&T closed its merger with MediaOne on June 15, 2000. Therefore, MediaOne
is reflected in the December 31, 2000 balance sheet. The merger was accounted
for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, AT&T has established a
new basis for MediaOne Group's assets and liabilities using their preliminarily
assigned fair values based on the allocation of the purchase price including the
costs of the merger.

     AT&T closed its merger with TCI on March 9, 1999. Therefore, TCI is
reflected in the December 31, 2000 balance sheet. The merger was accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, AT&T has established a new
basis for TCI's assets and liabilities using their assigned fair values based on
the allocation of the purchase price including the costs of the merger. In
connection with the merger, AT&T issued a separate tracking stock to reflect the
economic performance of Liberty Media Group, TCI's former programming and
technology investment businesses.

     On April 27, 2000, AT&T completed the sale of a tracking stock (AT&T
Wireless Group tracking stock) intended to reflect 15.6% of the financial
performance and economic value of AT&T Wireless Group. The results of AT&T
Wireless Group are included in their entirety in the consolidated results of
AT&T. The earnings available to Common Shareholders are (reduced) increased by
the 15.6% of (income) loss from the AT&T Wireless Group beginning on April 27,
2000, the date of formation of the AT&T Wireless Group Tracking Stock.

     Upon the split-off, AT&T Wireless Services will assume a portion of AT&T's
outstanding employee stock options. In connection with this assumption, AT&T
will, effective immediately prior to the split-off, reduce the AT&T Common Stock
Group's retained portion of the value of the AT&T Wireless Group by the
equivalent of 12,577,650 shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock. This will
have the effect of reducing the total number of shares of AT&T Wireless Services
common stock distributed to holders of AT&T common stock in the split-off.

                     NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED
                         COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 1.  These columns reflect the historical results of operations and financial
     position of the respective companies.

 2.  This column reflects the deconsolidation of the historical results of
     operations for the interests represented by the shares of Liberty Media
     Group tracking stock for the period January 1, 1998 through February 28,
     1999. AT&T accounts for the Liberty Media Group under the equity method
     because it does not possess a "controlling financial interest" for
     financial accounting purposes in the Liberty Media Group.

 3.  This column reflects the TCI merger purchase accounting adjustments. These
     adjustments include the amortization of the excess of the purchase price
     over the net assets acquired and incremental interest expense on additional
     borrowings for the period January 1, 1998 through February 28, 1999.

 4.  This column reflects the MediaOne merger purchase accounting adjustments.
     These adjustments include the amortization of the excess of the purchase
     price over the net assets acquired, incremental interest expense on
     additional borrowings for the period January 1, 1998 through June 15, 2000
     and the elimination of a non-recurring charge related to the termination of
     MediaOne's merger with Comcast Corp. included in 1999.

 5.  These entries give effect to an assumed approximate $10 billion exchange of
     503 million shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock for 428 million
     shares of AT&T common stock offered to existing AT&T common stock
     shareholders. The number of shares exchanged is calculated based on the
     closing trading prices for shares of AT&T common stock and AT&T Wireless
     Group tracking stock on April 17, 2001 plus a premium of approximately 7%
     as approved by the Board of Directors of AT&T. The exchange offer, as
     calculated, reflects a reduction of approximately 21.8 percentage points in
     the AT&T Common Stock Group's portion of the value of AT&T Wireless Group.
     Due to the fact that the premium as calculated using the April 17, 2001
     stock price is a one-time event associated with the exchange, its effects
     have not been included as a pro forma adjustment to the income statement.
     The impact to diluted earnings per share attributable to the AT&T Common
     Stock Group for the year ended December 31, 2000 related to the premium is
     a reduction of approximately $0.15 per share, or $0.98 per diluted share.
     For each $1 billion decrease in the assumed exchange amount, this diluted
     earnings per share would increase by approximately $.01 per share, which
     reflects the impact of a lower premium on the exchange, partially offset by
     an increase in the AT&T Common Stock Group shares outstanding. For the
     years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, each $1 billion decrease in the
     assumed exchange amount would reduce this diluted earnings per share by
     approximately $.03 per share and $.02 per share, respectively, reflecting
     an increase in AT&T Common Stock Group shares outstanding. As a result of
     the exchange offer, the earnings per share calculation of the AT&T Common
     Stock Group reflects a decrease in the number of outstanding shares of AT&T
     common stock in all periods, and a decrease in net income attributable to
     the AT&T Common Stock Group as a result of the decrease in the portion of
     the value of the AT&T Wireless Group retained by the AT&T Common Stock
     Group for the period subsequent to April 27, 2000. The effect of the
     exchange offer on the balance sheet would include: 1) a decrease in the par
     and additional paid-in-capital of AT&T common stock and 2) an increase in
     the par and additional paid-in-capital of AT&T Wireless Group tracking
     stock and 3) a decrease in retained earnings as a result of the exchange
     offer premium. Since the number of shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking
     stock and the net income attributable to the AT&T Wireless Group will
     increase proportionally, there will be no change to the calculated earnings
     per share for the AT&T Wireless Group. The accounting for the exchange
     offer, along with the

                                      D-118

     associated premium, will be determined based on the closing prices of the
     AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and the AT&T common stock on May 25,
     2001, the date of the expiration of the exchange offer.

 6.  These entries reflect the sale of the DoCoMo wireless tracking stock for
     $9.811 billion. The preferred stock is characterized as a mandatorily
     redeemable preferred security, as defined by the SEC in Accounting Series
     Release (ASR) No. 268, and is classified outside of stockholders' equity on
     the balance sheet. The value of the warrants is recorded as a liability and
     will be marked to market in subsequent periods through its period of
     expiration. The values assigned to the preferred stock ($9.506 billion) and
     the warrants ($305 million) are based upon an allocation of the relative
     fair values of each instrument as of January 22, 2001. The allocation of
     the relative fair values has resulted in a beneficial conversion feature of
     approximately $300 million and an accretion to the face value of
     approximately $40 million. The proceeds from the sale will be allocated
     among AT&T and the AT&T Wireless Group with $3.6 billion being utilized by
     AT&T to pay down short-term debt and the remaining $6.2 billion allocated
     to the AT&T Wireless Group. The pay down in short-term debt would result in
     a reduction in interest expense, of $194 million ($120 million, net of
     taxes) for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998. The reduction
     in interest expense was calculated using an interest rate of 5.3%, which
     reflects the current 90-day commercial paper rate.

 7.  This entry reflects the fair value adjustment for accounting purposes that
     result in a gain which will be recorded upon the distribution of the AT&T
     Wireless Group. This distribution is non pro-rata due to the alteration of
     shareowner interests in the AT&T Wireless Group as a result of the exchange
     offer. For this reason, the distribution will be accounted for at fair
     value and will result in a nonrecurring gain upon distribution equal to the
     excess of the fair value of the securities issued over AT&T's carrying
     value of the net assets of the AT&T Wireless Group adjusted for the AT&T
     Wireless Group shares retained by AT&T at the time of the distribution. The
     actual gain will be determined upon distribution. Due to the fact that the
     gain is a one-time event, its effects have not been included as a pro forma
     adjustment to the income statement; however, it has been included as a pro
     forma adjustment to retained earnings on the pro forma balance sheet. The
     estimated gain is calculated as follows (numbers in millions):

  represent 2,159 million shares of AT&T Wireless Group

 8.  The adjustments presented deduct the historical results of operations and
     the historical financial position of the AT&T Wireless Group to reflect the
     distribution of the AT&T Wireless Group from AT&T. The distribution is a
     fair value transaction and as such the fair value of the net assets has
     been recorded as a reduction to retained earnings for the dividend of
     AT&T's retained portion of the value of AT&T Wireless Group and par and
     additional paid-in-capital for the distribution to the AT&T Wireless Group
     tracking stock Shareholders. The reduction to retained

     earnings and the reduction to additional paid in capital is calculated as
     follows: (Amounts in millions)

    In addition to the historical adjustments, other adjustments relating to the
    DoCoMo transaction have been presented. These adjustments reflect that $6.2
    billion of cash associated with the transaction has been allocated to the
    AT&T Wireless Group, the preferred stock associated with the transaction is
    converted to 406 million shares of AT&T Wireless Group tracking stock and
    the warrants associated with the transaction are converted to warrants in
    AT&T Wireless Services.

    On February 15, 2001, AT&T announced that they would retain approximately $3
    billion in value of AT&T Wireless Services shares subject to an IRS Ruling
    (represents 151 million shares as of April 17, 2001) of the distribution.
    The retained shares will be accounted for as a cost method investment under
    SFAS 115, and therefore any differences between historical cost and fair
    value on a periodic basis will be recorded, net of applicable taxes, as a
    component of Other Comprehensive Income.

 9.  These adjustments reflect the cash received by AT&T from AT&T Wireless
     Group in connection with the repayment of the $2.438 billion intercompany
     loan and the $3.0 billion preferred stock (together, "intercompany
     indebtedness"). The repayment of intercompany indebtedness is contained in
     the preliminary Separation and Distribution Agreement between AT&T and AT&T
     Wireless Group. It is assumed that AT&T utilized the proceeds it received
     from AT&T Wireless Group to pay down its short-term debt in the pro forma
     balance sheet. The paydown in short-term debt would result in a reduction
     in interest expense of $288 million ($178 million net of taxes) for the
     years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998. The reduction in interest
     expense was calculated using an interest rate of 5.3%, which reflects the
     current 90-day commercial paper rate.

10.  Reflects certain Inter-Group transactions appropriately reflected in the
     separate financial statements of AT&T after excluding the AT&T Wireless
     Group on a pro forma basis that were eliminated in the AT&T consolidated
     financial statements and were therefore not reflected in AT&T's historical
     results and financial position.

11.  The adjustments presented deduct the historical results of operations and
     the historical financial position of the Liberty Media Group to reflect the
     split-off of the Liberty Media Group from AT&T. The split-off is a pro-rata
     distribution and as such the historical value of the net assets has been
     recorded as an elimination of the AT&T Liberty Media Group equity.

12.  This entry reflects the settlement of AT&T's net payable of $650 million to
     Liberty Media Group primarily for the value of certain TCI pre-acquisition
     net operating loss carryforwards, pursuant to the tax sharing agreements
     dated March 9, 1999.

13.  The adjustments presented deduct the historical results of operations and
     the historical financial position of AT&T Communications Services. Due to
     the fact that the spin-off of AT&T Business Services is pro-rata and the
     fair value of the AT&T Consumer Services split-off has not been included in
     the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the
     historical value of the net assets has been recorded as a reduction to
     retained earnings.

14.  This adjustment reflects all AT&T Corporate debt as outstanding on the pro
     forma financial statements since such amounts are not legally assignable at
     this time. Since certain amounts have been attributed to AT&T
     Communications Services, Inc., a receivable for such amounts, as well as
     adjustments for the related interest expense and interest income, have been
     reflected herein.

15.  Reflects certain Inter-Group transactions appropriately reflected in the
     separate financial statements of AT&T after excluding AT&T Communications
     Services, Inc. on a pro forma basis that were eliminated in the AT&T
     consolidated financial statements and were therefore not reflected in
     AT&T's historical results and financial position.

16.  This entry reclasses the pro forma cash overdraft to accounts payable.
