A copy of the Plan is field as Exhibit 2.2 to the Issuer's Current Report on 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 22, 2002. Under the Plan, each holder of old Class A Common Stock as of April 5, 2002 (the "Distribution Record Date") is entitled, together with holders of Allowed Securities Claims (as defined in the Plan), in full satisfaction, release and discharge of such interests, in a pro rata share of 54,775,663 shares of the Company's new Class A Common Stock. Under the terms of the Plan and by order of the Bankruptcy Court, 18,000,000 shares of such new Class A Common Stock are currently held in a Disputed Claims Reserve (as defined in the Plan). Accordingly, the initial distribution to holders of old Class A Common Stock will be a pro rata share of 36,775,663 shares of new Class A Common Stock, which equals approximately .058584 shares of new Class A Common Stock for each share of old Class A Common Stock held on the Distribution Record Date. Upon the final determination of the amount of any Allowed Securities Claims, if any, holders of old Class A Common Stock as of the Distribution Record Date may be entitled to additional distribution of new Class A Common Stock under the Plan. (2) Resigned as a director and Vice Chairman of the Issuer effective April 6, 2002, solely to consider a potential bid for Illinois Consolidated Telephone Company ("ICTC") which the Issuer has agreed to sell as part of its restructuring.
