                         Report of Independent Auditors

To the Partners of
Palmetto MobileNet, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Palmetto
MobileNet, L.P. as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related
consolidated statements of income and partners' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements
of certain RSA partnerships, the investments in which, as discussed in Note
3 to the financial statements, are accounted for by the equity method of
accounting. The investments in these RSA partnerships were $94,565,607 and
$96,613,823 as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and the equity
in their net income was $27,644,685, $23,390,795, and $15,014,286 for the
years 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. The financial statements of the
RSA partnerships were audited by other auditors whose reports were
furnished to us, and our opinion on the consolidated financial statements
of Palmetto MobileNet, L.P., insofar as it relates to the amounts included
for the RSA partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other
auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Palmetto MobileNet, L.P. as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1999,
1998, and 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1999 and 1998

1.  Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Palmetto MobileNet, L.P.(the "Partnership") is a South Carolina limited
partnership and is a general partner in ten general partnerships formed to
provide cellular telephone service in certain Rural Service Areas ("RSA") in
South Carolina and North Carolina. These partnerships' operations are managed
by affiliates of ALLTEL Communications, Inc.

Consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.

Cash Equivalents

The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

The Partnership maintains its cash and cash equivalent balances in one financial
institution located in Columbia, South Carolina. At December 31, 1999 and 1998,
cash equivalents of  $17,600,000 and $11,250,000, respectively, consist of
investments in repurchase agreements.

Interests in RSA Partnerships

Investments in the RSA general partnerships are accounted for using the equity
method, under which the Partnership's share of earnings of these partnerships is
reflected in income as earned and distributions are credited against the
interests in the partnerships when received.

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 disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income Taxes

Palmetto MobileNet, L.P. is a South Carolina limited partnership and, therefore,
is not subject to income taxes. Each partner includes in income its distributive
share of the Partnership's taxable income or loss.

2.  Acquisition

In January  1998,  the  Partnership  entered into an agreement to acquire 100%
of the members equity of CT Cellular Holdings 4/5, L.L.C., 100% of the members
equity of CT Cellular Holdings 15, L.L.C. and a 51% interest in Ellerbe-Concord
Cellular Company (a North Carolina general partnership) in exchange for 28,300
units of Partnership equity valued at approximately $57,700,000. The
transaction has been recorded using purchase accounting. The financial results
of CT Cellular  Holdings 4/5, L.L.C., CT Cellular Holdings 15, L.L.C., and
Ellerbe-Concord Cellular Company have been included in the accompanying
financial statements for the period from January 1, 1998 (the date of
acquisition) through December 31, 1999. The acquisition has been accounted for
as a non-cash investing and financing activity in the accompanying statement
of cash flows.

As a result of the above transaction, the Partnership obtained a 50% interest in
North Carolina RSA 5 Cellular Partnership and a 50% interest in North Carolina
RSA 15 Cellular Partnership. Consistent with  investments in other general
partnerships, these interests are accounted for using the equity method. The
investments in these partnerships, which are recorded at cost less amortization,
exceed the underlying equity in net assets by  approximately $11,116,000 and
$37,512,000, respectively.

Approximately  $48,627,000 of cost in excess of underlying  equity in net assets
is being amortized over a 15 year period.  Accumulated  amortization,  which has
been recorded as a reduction in the interest in RSA partnerships and a reduction
in the  equity in  earnings of RSA  partnership  interests,  was  approximately
$6,483,000 and $3,241,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998 respectively.
Amortization expense for the years ended December  31, 1999 and 1998 was
approximately $3,241,000.

3.  Interests in RSA Partnerships

Interests in RSA partnerships which are all engaged in providing cellular
telephone service to rural areas of South Carolina and North Carolina, are:

South Carolina RSA No. 2 Cellular General Partnership (50% owned)
South Carolina RSA No. 3 Cellular General Partnership (50% owned)
South Carolina RSA No. 4 Cellular General Partnership (50% owned)
South Carolina RSA No. 5 Cellular General Partnership (50% owned)
South Carolina RSA No. 6 Cellular General Partnership (50% owned)
South Carolina RSA No. 7 Cellular General Partnership (50% owned)
South Carolina RSA No. 8 Cellular General Partnership (50% owned)

4.  Long-Term Debt

The Partnership has a $10 million term loan agreement and a $3 million working
line of credit agreement with the Rural Telephone Finance Cooperative (the
"RTFC"). The terms of the agreements require the Partnership to maintain a
specified amount of RTFC Subordinated Capital Certificates ("SCC's"). The
Partnership had $448,545 of SCC's at December 31, 1999 and 1998.

The debt is collateralized by a first lien on the assets of the Partnership
other than the Partnership's equity interests in the ten RSA  partnership
investments. The term loan provides varying quarterly payments of principal,
plus interest at fixed rates ranging from 5.85% to 6.50%. The terms of the line
of credit agreement provide for interest to be paid  quarterly at the RTFC's
published variable interest rate. No funds have been advanced against the line
of credit agreement. At December 31, 1999 and 1998,  $6,974,626 and $8,052,745
were outstanding under the financing agreement.

Under the terms of the financing agreement, the Partnership is required to
maintain a specified debt service coverage ratio.  The Partnership was in
compliance with this covenant at December 31, 1999.

The carrying amount of the Company's long-term debt approximates fair value.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

Pursuant to each RSA general partnership agreement, Palmetto MobileNet, L.P.
is subject to requests for additional capital.

The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") is performing examinations of the records
of a significant number of the RSA  partnerships, in which the Partnership has
ownership interests, for the years ended December 31, 1991 to 1996. For certain
RSA's, the IRS has completed its audits and has issued "60 Day Letters"
indicating adjustments they plan to make to the RSA tax returns. The RSA
partnerships are vigorously contesting the IRS audit findings and, as a result,
the amount of final adjustment, if any, cannot be determined at this time. The
final adjustments, if any, from the IRS examinations will ultimately be
allocated to each partner to be included in their taxable income.
