L.      DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSACTION

business at:

Allegiance International is a wholly—owned operating subsidiary of Allegiance Telecom, Inc.

Allegiance Telecom, Inc. is a publicly tradedcorporation that currently is the direct and ultimate

parent company of all ofthe Allegiance operating companies. Allegiance International holds global

authority to provide resold and facilities—based international telecommunications services pursuant

to Section 214 of the Communications Act, as amended.*

       Allegiance International seeks approval of a pro formareorganization whereby all of the

stock of Allegiance International will be transferred from Allegiance Telecom, Inc., the ultimate

Allegiance holding company, to Allegiance Finance Company, Inc. ("Allegiance Finance"), a newly

created holding company that is also wholly ownedby Allegiance Telecom, Inc. The net effect of

the proposed transaction will be solely to interpose Allegiance Finance as a new intermediate

holding company between Allegiance Telecom, Inc. and Allegiance International. Allegiance

Telecom, Inc. will remain the ultimate holding company of the Allegiance companies and retain

ultimate corporate control of Allegiance International. Allegiance International will continue to

provide service to consumers under the same rates, terms and conditions as it currently provides

service. The proposed reorganization therefore will be entirely pro forma in nature and will be

entirely transparent to consumers. A Chart illustrating the corporate structure of the Allegiance

companies before and after the proposed transaction is attached as Exhibit A.
