                              Verizon Virginia Inc.

                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation

     Verizon Virginia Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Verizon
Communications Inc. (Verizon Communications). The accompanying unaudited
condensed financial statements have been prepared based upon Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim
periods. These financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary
for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial position for the
interim periods shown including normal recurring accruals. The results for the
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The
balance sheet at December 31, 2000 has been derived from the audited financial
statements at that date but does not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting
policies and certain other information, you should refer to the financial
statements included in our 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     We have reclassified certain amounts from prior year's data to conform to
the 2001 presentation.

2.   Revenue Recognition

     We recognize revenue when services are rendered based on usage of our local
exchange network and facilities. For other products and services, revenues are
generally recognized when services are rendered or products are delivered to
customers.

     We defer nonrecurring service activation revenues and costs and amortize
them over the expected term of the customer relationship. The deferred costs are
equal to the activation fee revenue and any excess cost is expensed immediately.
The deferred costs represent incremental direct costs associated with certain
nonrecurring fees, such as service activation and installation fees.

3.   Long-Lived Assets

     We assess the impairment of long-lived assets under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be
recoverable. A determination of impairment (if any) is made based on estimates
of future cash flows.

4.   Dividend

     On November 1, 2001, we declared and paid a dividend in the amount of
$140.0 million to Verizon Communications.

5.   Derivatives and Hedging Activities

     Effective January 1, 2001, we adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133
requires that all derivatives, including derivatives embedded in other financial
instruments, be measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or
liabilities on our balance sheet. Changes in the fair values of derivative
instruments not qualifying as hedges under SFAS No. 133 or any ineffective
portion of hedges are recognized in earnings in the current period. Changes in
the fair values of derivative instruments used effectively as fair value hedges
are recognized in earnings, along with changes in the fair value of the hedged
item. Changes in the fair value of the effective portions of cash flow hedges
are reported in other comprehensive income (loss), and recognized in earnings
when the hedged item is recognized in earnings. We presently do not have any
derivative instruments or hedging activities and, consequently, SFAS No. 133 did
not have an impact on our financial statements.

6.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets."

     SFAS No. 141, which applies to business combinations occurring after June
30, 2001, requires that the purchase method of accounting be used and includes
guidance on the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other
intangible assets acquired in the combination.

                                       5

                              Verizon Virginia Inc.

     SFAS No. 142 no longer permits the amortization of goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets. Instead, these assets must be reviewed
annually (or more frequently under certain conditions) for impairment in
accordance with this statement. This impairment test uses a fair value approach
rather than the undiscounted cash flows approach previously required by SFAS No.
121. The new statement also applies to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
assets of investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
Intangible assets that do not have indefinite lives will continue to be
amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with
SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."
We are required to adopt SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. We are
currently evaluating our intangible assets to determine the impact, if any, the
adoption of SFAS No. 142 will have on our results of operations or financial
position.

     In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations." This standard provides the accounting for the cost of
legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. SFAS No.
143 requires that companies recognize the fair value of a liability for asset
retirement obligations in the period in which the obligations are incurred and
capitalize that amount as a part of the book value of the long-lived asset. That
cost is then depreciated over the remaining life of the underlying long-lived
asset. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 143 effective January 1, 2003. We are
currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on our future
results of operations or financial position.

     In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144. This standard supersedes SFAS
No. 121 and the provisions of Accounting Principles Board 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," with regard to reporting the effects of a disposal of
a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 establishes a single accounting model for
assets to be disposed of by sale and addresses several SFAS No. 121
implementation issues. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 144 effective January
1, 2002. We do not expect the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a
material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

7.   Merger Charges

     In connection with the merger of Bell Atlantic and GTE on June 30, 2000, we
incurred charges associated with employee severance of $12.8 million pre-tax.
Employee severance costs, as recorded under SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting
for Postemployment Benefits," represent the benefit costs for the separation of
management employees who were entitled to benefits under pre-existing separation
plans. During the second quarter of 2000, in connection with the merger, we also
recorded a pre-tax charge of $12.2 million for direct, incremental
merger-related costs, including compensation, professional services and other
direct costs.

     In addition, we recorded pre-tax merger-related transition costs of $17.8
million in the first nine months of 2001 and $2.4 million for the first nine
months of 2000. Transition costs consisted of costs to integrate systems,
consolidate real estate, relocate employees and meet certain regulatory
conditions of the merger. They also included costs for advertising and other
costs to establish the Verizon brand. Transition costs since the date of the
merger totaled $24.8 million. Transition costs are expensed as incurred. During
the second quarter of 2000, we also recorded a $.2 million pre-tax charge for
other actions in relation to the Bell Atlantic-GTE merger. This charge was
related to the write-off of duplicate assets.

9.   Commitments and Contingencies

     Various legal actions and regulatory proceedings are pending to which we
are a party and claims which, if asserted, may lead to other legal actions. We
have established reserves for specific liabilities in connection with regulatory
and legal matters that we currently deem to be probable and estimable. We do not
expect that the ultimate resolution of pending regulatory and legal matters in
future periods will have a material effect on our financial condition, but it
could have a material effect on our results of operations.

     Several regulatory matters may require us to refund a portion of the
revenues collected in the current and prior periods. The outcome of each pending
matter, as well as the time frame within which each matter will be resolved, is
not presently determinable.

     Regulatory conditions to the Bell Atlantic - GTE merger include certain
commitments to, among other things, promote competition and the widespread
deployment of advanced services, while helping to ensure that consumers continue
to receive high-quality, low cost telephone services. In some cases, there are
significant penalties associated with not meeting these commitments. The cost of
satisfying these commitments could have a significant impact on net income in
future periods.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
         (Abbreviated pursuant to General Instruction H(2).)

     This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements
and Notes to Financial Statements.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

     We reported net income of $334.1 million for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2001, compared to net income of $354.9 million for the same period
in 2000.

     The tragedies of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 principally
affected the Verizon Communications Inc. (Verizon Communications) operations
either in, or adjacent to, the World Trade Center complex in New York City. The
events of September 11th did not have a significant effect on our results of
operations or financial condition.

     Our results for 2001 and 2000 were affected by special items. The special
items in both periods include our allocated share of charges from affiliates
that provide various centralized services on behalf of Verizon Communications'
subsidiaries.

     The following table shows how special items are reflected in our condensed
statements of income for each period:

</TABLE>
     What follows is a further explanation of the nature of these special items.

Merger Charges

     In connection with the merger of Bell Atlantic and GTE on June 30, 2000, we
incurred charges associated with employee severance of $12.8 million pre-tax.
Employee severance costs, as recorded under SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting
for Postemployment Benefits," represent the benefit costs for the separation of
management employees who were entitled to benefits under pre-existing separation
plans. During the second quarter of 2000, in connection with the merger, we also
recorded a pre-tax charge of $12.2 million for direct, incremental
merger-related costs, including compensation, professional services and other
direct costs.

     In addition, we recorded pre-tax merger-related transition costs of $17.8
million in the first nine months of 2001 and $2.4 million for the first nine
months of 2000. Transition costs consisted of costs to integrate systems,
consolidate real estate, relocate employees and meet certain regulatory
conditions of the merger. They also included costs for advertising and other
costs to establish the Verizon brand. Transition costs are expensed as incurred.
During the second quarter of 2000, we also recorded a $.2 million pre-tax charge
for other actions in relation to the Bell Atlantic-GTE merger. This charge was
related to the write-off of duplicate assets.

Other Charges and Special Items

     In the second quarter of 2000, we recognized a pre-tax charge for a
regulatory matter totaling $.3 million. We recorded a reduction to operating
revenue in the amount of $.2 million and a charge to interest expense of $.1
million. This matter relates to a specific issue currently under investigation
by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). We believe that it is probable
that the ultimate resolution of this matter will result in refunds to our
customers, including interest. In the second quarter of 2000, we also recorded
other charges and special items totaling approximately $11.2 million. These
charges included costs for the write-off of accounts receivable, legal
contingencies and other miscellaneous items.

     These and other items affecting the comparison of our results of operations
for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are discussed in
the following sections.

                                        ========================================

LOCAL SERVICES

     2001 - 2000                             (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                       $(52.7)        (4.8)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Local service revenues are earned from the provision of local exchange,
local private line, wire maintenance, voice messaging and value-added services.
Value-added services are a family of services that expand the utilization of the
network, including products such as Caller ID, Call Waiting and Return Call. The
provision of local exchange services not only includes retail revenues, but also
includes local wholesale revenues from unbundled network elements (UNEs),
interconnection revenues from competitive local exchange carriers, certain data
transport revenues and wireless interconnection revenues.

     The decline in local service revenues in the first nine months of 2001 is
primarily due to lower demand and usage of our basic wireline services, as
reflected by a decrease in our switched access lines in service from September
30, 2000. This decrease primarily reflects the impact of an economic slowdown
and competition. In addition, the effect of technology substitution is
increasing, as more customers are choosing wireless and Internet services in
place of certain basic wireline services. A reduction in revenue from our
value-added services also contributed to the decline in local service revenues.

     These decreases were partially offset by higher payments received from
competitive local exchange carriers for the purchase of unbundled network
elements and higher revenue from our wire maintenance services.


NETWORK ACCESS SERVICES

     2001 - 2000                              Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                        $90.7         14.5%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Network access revenues are earned from end-user subscribers and from long
distance and other competing carriers who use our local exchange facilities to
provide usage services to their customers. Switched access revenues are derived
from fixed and usage-based charges paid by carriers for access to our local
network. Special access revenues originate from carriers and end-users that buy
dedicated local exchange capacity to support their private networks. End-user
access revenues are earned from our customers and from resellers who purchase
dial-tone services.

     Network access revenue growth in the first nine months of 2001 was mainly
attributable to higher customer demand for special access services, particularly
for high-capacity, high-speed digital services. Network access revenue was also
impacted by the effect of a special charge recorded in 2000, as described in the
Results of Operations section.

     These increases were partially offset by price reductions associated with a
federal price cap filing and other regulatory decisions. The Virginia State
Corporation Commission (VSCC) regulates us with respect to certain intrastate
rates and services and certain other matters. The FCC regulates rates that we
charge long distance carriers and end-user subscribers for interstate access
services. We are required to file new access rates with the FCC each year. In
July 2000, we implemented the Coalition for Affordable Local and Long Distance
Service (CALLS) plan. Rates included in the July 2000 CALLS plan were in effect
through June 2001. Effective July 3, 2001, we implemented further rate
reductions in accordance with the plan. The impact of the slowing economy also
affected network access revenues in 2001.


LONG DISTANCE SERVICES

     2001 - 2000                                           (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                                      $(10.0)       (29.8)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Long distance revenues are earned primarily from calls made to points
outside a customer's local calling area, but within our service area (intraLATA
toll). IntraLATA toll calls originate and terminate within the same LATA, but
generally cover a greater distance than a local call. These services are
regulated by the VSCC except where they cross state lines. Other long distance
services that we provide include 800 services and Wide Area Telephone Service
(WATS).

     Long distance service revenues declined in the first nine months of 2001
primarily due to competition and the effects of toll calling discount packages
and product bundling offers of our intraLATA toll services. Lower revenues
resulting from the expansion of customer local calling areas in 2001 also
contributed to the decline in long distance service revenues this year.


OTHER SERVICES

     2001 - 2000                                           Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                                      $2.2          2.0%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Our other services include such services as billing and collections for
long distance carriers and affiliates, facilities rentals to affiliates and
nonaffiliates, public (pay) telephone, customer premises equipment (CPE) and
sales of materials and supplies to affiliates. Other service revenues also
include fees paid by customers for nonpublication of telephone numbers and
multiple white page listings and fees paid by an affiliate for usage of our
directory listings.

     Other service revenues increased in the first nine months of 2001 primarily
due to higher facilities rental revenues from affiliates. This increase was
partially offset by a decline in public telephone revenues, as more customers
substituted wireless communications for pay phone services.

OPERATING EXPENSES
------------------
(Dollars in Millions)


OPERATIONS AND SUPPORT

     2001 - 2000                               (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                         $(27.9)        (3.2)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Operations and support expenses consist of employee costs and other
operating expenses. Employee costs consist of salaries, wages and other employee
compensation, employee benefits and payroll taxes. Other operating expenses
consist of contract services including centralized services expenses allocated
from affiliates, rent, network software costs, operating taxes other than
income, the provision for uncollectible accounts receivable, reciprocal
compensation, and other costs.

     The decrease in operations and support expenses was primarily attributable
to the effect of merger-related costs and other special items recorded in 2000
and 2001, as described in the Results of Operations section. Operations and
support expenses were further reduced by business integration activities,
effective cost control measures and reduced employee overtime pay. These
decreases were partially offset by an increase in the provision for
uncollectible accounts receivable and annual salary and wage increases for
management and non-management employees.

     We continue to incur expenditures related to reciprocal compensation
arrangements with competitive local exchange carriers and other carriers to
terminate calls on their network. In March 2000, the United States Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit reversed and remanded the FCC's
February 1999 order that concluded that calls to the Internet through Internet
service providers (ISP) do not terminate at the ISP but are single interstate
calls. The FCC had concluded that calls to the Internet are not therefore
subject to reciprocal compensation under section 251(b)(5) of the
Telecommunications Act, but left it to state regulatory commissions to determine
whether local interconnection agreements entered into with competing carriers
required the payment of compensation on such calls.

     On April 27, 2001, the FCC released an order responding to the court's
remand. The FCC found that Internet-bound traffic is interstate and subject to
the FCC's jurisdiction. Moreover, the FCC again found that Internet-bound
traffic is not subject to reciprocal compensation under section 251(b)(5) of the
Telecommunications Act. Instead, the FCC established federal rates that decline
from $0.0015 to $0.0007 per minute over a three year period. The FCC order also
sets caps on the total minutes that may be subject to any intercarrier
compensation and requires that incumbent local exchange carriers must offer to
pay reciprocal compensation for local traffic at the same rate as they are
required to pay on Internet-bound traffic.


DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

     2001 - 2000                               Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                         $29.4          8.1%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased in the first nine months of
2001 principally due to growth in depreciable telephone plant and increased
software amortization costs. These factors were partially offset by the effect
of lower rates of depreciation.


OTHER INCOME AND (EXPENSE), NET

     2001 - 2000                              (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                         $(33.9)       (594.7)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The change in other income and (expense), net, was primarily attributable
to equity losses recognized from our investment in Verizon Advanced Data Inc.
(VADI). VADI is a wholly owned subsidiary of Verizon Communications that
provides new exchange access services. At September 30, 2001, our ownership
interest in VADI was 14.47%.

INTEREST EXPENSE

     2001 - 2000                                Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Nine Months                           $3.1          5.5%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Interest expense includes costs associated with borrowings and capital
leases, net of interest capitalized as a cost of acquiring or constructing plant
assets.

     Interest expense increased in the first nine months of 2001, over the same
period in 2000, primarily as a result of higher levels of average short-term
debt with an affiliate. This increase was partially offset by the effect of
lower rates of interest and higher capitalized interest costs resulting from
higher levels of average telephone plant under construction. The effect of
additional interest costs in 2000 associated with a regulatory contingency, as
described in the Results of Operations section, also offset the increase in
expense, but to a lesser extent.

EFFECTIVE INCOME TAX RATES


     Nine Months Ended September 30,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     2001                                        41.0%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     2000                                        38.2%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The effective income tax rate is the provision for income taxes as a
percentage of income before the provision for income taxes. Our effective income
tax rate was higher in the first nine months of 2001 principally due to equity
losses associated with our investment in VADI, for which we do not recognize
income tax benefits.

OTHER MATTERS
-------------

State Regulation

     On June 26, 2001, the VSCC rejected a petition by competing carriers to
order a retail/wholesale structural separation of Verizon Virginia.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets."

     SFAS No. 141, which applies to business combinations occurring after June
30, 2001, requires that the purchase method of accounting be used and includes
guidance on the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other
intangible assets acquired in the combination.

     SFAS No. 142 no longer permits the amortization of goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets. Instead, these assets must be reviewed
annually (or more frequently under certain conditions) for impairment in
accordance with this statement. This impairment test uses a fair value approach
rather than the undiscounted cash flows approach previously required by SFAS No.
121. The new statement also applies to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
assets of investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
Intangible assets that do not have indefinite lives will continue to be
amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with
SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."
We are required to adopt SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. We are
currently evaluating our intangible assets to determine the impact, if any, the
adoption of SFAS No. 142 will have on our results of operations or financial
position.

     In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations." This standard provides the accounting for the cost of
legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. SFAS No.
143 requires that companies recognize the fair value of a liability for asset
retirement obligations in the period in which the obligations are

                                      12

                             Verizon Virginia Inc.

incurred and capitalize that amount as a part of the book value of the long-
lived asset. That cost is then depreciated over the remaining life of the
underlying long-lived asset. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 143 effective
January 1, 2003. We are currently evaluating the impact this new standard will
have on our future results of operations or financial position.

     In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144. This standard supersedes SFAS
No. 121 and the provisions of Accounting Principles Board 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," with regard to reporting the effects of a disposal of
a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 establishes a single accounting model for
assets to be disposed of by sale and addresses several SFAS No. 121
implementation issues. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 144 effective January
1, 2002. We do not expect the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a
material effect on our results of operations or financial position.
