Dear Susan:

On behalf of LCC International, Inc. (the "Company"), I am pleased to formally
invite you to join our Board of Directors. We expect you will serve a vital role
as one of the Company's "outside" directors.

I intend to submit your candidacy to the Board for approval at its January 30,
2001 regular meeting. This will be an interim appointment until the Company's
next Annual Shareholders' Meeting in May. The Company's Directors are elected
for one-year term(s) at each Annual Shareholders' Meeting. If elected by the
Board at the January 30 meeting, you should also expect to be nominated by the
Board for election by the shareholders in May. Your candidacy for election will
be presented in the Company's 2001 Proxy Statement, and you will be expected to
provide the Company with all information required for disclosure under the SEC's
proxy rules.

Historically, the Board holds four regular meetings each year and one Annual
Meeting immediately following the Annual Shareholders' Meeting. The Annual
Meeting is currently scheduled for May 24, 2001, and the four regular meetings
are currently scheduled January 30, April 24, July 24 and October 23. These
dates will be finalized at the January 30 meeting. The Board also holds special
meetings as needed during the year to consider matters that demand more
immediate attention given the needs of the business.

In consideration of your services, we are offering you the following
compensation package:

        -       An annual retainer of $20,000 paid in four equal quarterly
                installments, in arrears, at each regular meeting of the Board.

        -       An annual retainer of $2,000 for each Committee that you serve
                on with an additional $3,000 in the event you serve as Chair of
                the Committee.

        -       A fee of $1,000 for each Board meeting that you attend, together
                with reimbursement of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses you
                incur in connection with your service.

You are also eligible to receive options to purchase shares of the Company's
Class "A" Common Stock under the Company's 1996 Directors Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan"). Directors of the Company receive an annual grant at each Annual Board
Meeting of options to purchase 10,000 shares, and a grant upon joining the Board
equal to a pro rata portion of 10,000 based on the portion of a year served
between the date you join the Board and the next Annual Board Meeting. The
options are granted at the fair market value of the Company's Class "A" Common
Stock on the date of grant (i.e., the date approved by the Board), which is
defined as the closing price reported on NASDAQ on the date prior to the date of
grant. The options normally have a three-year vesting schedule with one third
vesting on each anniversary of the date of grant. The options are subject to the
terms and conditions of the Plan and the form of Non-Qualified Stock Option
Agreement adopted by the Board for grants under the Plan.

You will also be entitled to indemnification from the Company for certain claims
that you may be subject to in connection with your service to the Company. You
will be provided an indemnification agreement in the form adopted by the Board
for its members. The Company maintains standard D&O Liability coverage that
provides coverage for certain risks under the terms of the policy. You will also
be subject to the normal SEC and NASDAQ rules applicable to directors of public
companies including restrictions on your ability to execute transactions
involving Company securities and certain disclosure obligations with respect to
your trading activities. The Company has adopted certain policies applicable to
its officers and directors, including trading windows and pre-clearance
procedures, which will assist in your compliance with these requirements.

Again, we are very pleased to offer you this position and look forward to a long
and mutually beneficial relationship. If you wish to accept this offer, please
sign this letter in the space provided below and return one fully executed copy
to me before Friday, January 19, 2001. If you have any questions, please feel
free to call me.

Best regards,




/s/ C. THOMAS FAULDERS, III
