Monday May 14, 5:28 pm Eastern Time Press Release Teligent Granted Waiver of Bank Amendment Through May 21, 2001 VIENNA, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 14, 2001--Teligent, a provider of broadband communications, today announced that it was granted a second waiver to an amendment and consent to its credit agreement with The Chase Manhattan Bank, Goldman Sachs Credit Partners, Toronto Dominion Bank and other lenders, providing an extension until May 21, 2001. The company is currently in negotiations with The Chase Manhattan Bank and other lenders under the credit agreement regarding its financial position. If Teligent does not reach an agreement with its lenders before the new May 21, 2001 deadline, the company will be in default under the credit agreement and there can be no assurance that Teligent would be able to obtain any additional waivers under the credit agreement. The effectiveness of the waiver is also conditioned on Teligent meeting a specific spending limit. The company also announced today that the NASDAQ stock market halted the trading of its stock on Friday, May 11, 2001 at 9:03 a.m. Eastern Time until the company satisfies the NASDAQ's request for information.

Transmission: =>Delaware has issued a final order approving the terms of its debtor-in-possession ("DIP") bank facility, which has an initial availability of up to $75 million, and which may be increased to as much as $300 million upon the satisfaction of certain conditions.<= More smoke and mirrors from the company that invented positive spin. The $75 million was previously approved by the court. (WCII is already spending that money.) The additional $225 million DIP aprroval was denied. Unless there is a suitor willing to pay an attractive price for the assets lock, stock and barrel, the spending binge is over. I believe it would be sweet justice (as a condition for the DIP approval) for the court to force Rouhana to come up with a year end audited report. Catch-22.
