warrantholder  or  by  such  Warrantholder's  appointed  legal representative or

Company's  transfer  agent  is participating in the Depositary Trust Issuer Fast
Automated  Securities  Transfer  ("FAST")  program,  upon  request  of  the
Warrantholder,  the  Company  shall  use  its best efforts to cause its transfer

     (d)     The  Warrants  shall  be  exercisable  as  provided  herein  at the
election of the Warrantholder in whole or in part.  In the event that the holder

the  Warrant  Shares  evidenced thereby, a new Warrant Certificate(s) evidencing
the  remaining unexercised Warrant Shares shall be issued to such Warrantholder,
and  the  Company  is  hereby  irrevocably authorized to execute and deliver the
required  new  Warrant  Certificate(s)  pursuant  to provisions of Article 2 and
Article  3  of  this  Agreement.

     (e)     All  Warrant  Certificates  surrendered  upon  exercise of Warrants

"Exercise  Price").

     (b)     Notwithstanding  Section  5.3(a),  if  the  Pensat  Transaction  is
consumated  and  the Conversion Price of the Class B Preferred Stock is adjusted
as  a  consequence of the Pensat Transaction in accordance with the terms of the
second  paragraph  of  Section  4 (d) (iv) of the Certificate of Designations of
Pointe  Communications  Corporation,  the  Exercise  Price of the Warrants shall
automatically be adjusted to be equal to one hundred eight percent (108%) of the
adjusted  Conversion  Price of the Class B Preferred Stock as of the date of the
adjustment  to  such  Conversion  Price.

     SECTION  5.4     Exercise  Period. The right to exercise the Warrants shall
                      ----------------
terminate  on the date which is the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of
the  Warrants (the "Expiration Date").  A Warrantholder may exercise any Warrant

     (a)     At  any  time  prior  to  the  Expiration Date of any Warrants, the
Warrantholder may, at its option, exchange such Warrants, in whole or in part (a
"Warrant  Exchange"),  into  the number of fully paid and non-assessable Warrant
Shares  determined  in  accordance  with  this  Section 5.5, by surrendering the
Warrant  Certificate  relating  to such Warrants at the Office, accompanied by a
notice stating such Warrantholder's intent to effect such cashless exchange, the
number of Warrant Shares to be issued upon such Warrant Exchange and the date on
which  the Warrantholder requests that such cashless Warrant Exchange occur (the
"Notice  of  Exchange").  The  cashless Warrant Exchange shall take place on the
date  specified  in the Notice of Exchange, or, if later, the date the Notice of
Exchange is received by the Company (the "Exchange Date").  Certificates for the
Warrant  Shares issuable upon such cashless Warrant Exchange and, if applicable,
a  new  Warrant  Certificate of like tenor evidencing the balance of the Warrant
Shares  remaining  subject  to the Warrantholder's Warrant Certificate, shall be
issued  as  of the Exchange Date and delivered to the Warrantholder within three
Business  Days  following  the  Exchange  Date,  or  by Electronic Transfer.  In
connection  with  any  cashless  Warrant  Exchange,  the Warrantholder's Warrant
Certificate shall represent the right to subscribe for and acquire the number of
Warrant  Shares (rounded to the next highest integer) equal to (A) the number of
Warrant  Shares  specified  by  the Warrantholder in its Notice of Exchange (the
"Total  Share  Number")  less  (B)  the  number  of  Warrant Shares equal to the
quotient  obtained by dividing (i) the product of the Total Share Number and the
existing Exercise Price per Warrant Share by (ii) the Market Price (as hereafter
defined)  of  a  share  of  Common  Stock.

     (b)     As  used in this Section 5.5, the phrase "Market Price" at any date
shall be deemed to be the last reported sale price, or, in case no such reported
sale  takes  place on such day, the average of the last reported sale prices for
the  last  three  trading  days,  in  either  case as officially reported by the
principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to
trading  or  by  the  Nasdaq Stock Market National Market ("Nasdaq"), or, if the
Common  Stock  is  not  listed or admitted to trading on any national securities
exchange  or quoted by Nasdaq, the average closing bid price as furnished by the
National  Association  of  Securities  Dealers,  Inc. ("NASD") through Nasdaq or
similar  organization  if  Nasdaq is no longer reporting such information, or if
the  Common Stock is not quoted on Nasdaq, any exchange or similar organization,
as  determined  in  good  faith  by  resolution of the Board of Directors of the
Company,  based  on  the  best  information  available  to  it  for the two days
immediately  preceding  such  issuance  or  sale and the day of such issuance or
sale.

SECTION  5.6     Mandatory  Exercise.
                 -------------------

     (a)     In  the  event the closing bid price of the Common Stock for twenty
(20)  consecutive  trading  days  is  equal  to  at  least  $5.00  per share (as
appropriately  adjusted  for  stock  splits,  stock  dividends,  combinations,
recapitalizations,  reclassifications, mergers, consolidations and other similar
events),  the Company shall have the right to cause the exercise of the Warrants
at  any  time  thereafter by the Warrantholders by giving written notice to each
Warrantholder  of  such  election  (a  "Mandatory  Exercise  Election  Notice");
provided  that  the  Warrant  Shares issuable upon such exercise shall have been
Registered  (as  defined)  and  listed  on  each  securities  exchange,
over-the-counter  market  or  on  the  Nasdaq  National  Market on which similar
Securities  issued  by  the  Company  are then listed.  "Registered" refers to a
registration  effected  by  preparing  and  filing  with the SEC, a registration
statement in compliance with the Securities Act, as amended, and the declaration
or  ordering  by  the  Commission  of  the  effectiveness  of  such registration
statement.

Warrantholder  shall  have  the  right to exercise its Warrants on the terms and
conditions  herein  (including  Section  5.5);  provided,  however,  that  the
                                                ------------------

price  therefor,  fully  paid  and  free  from all taxes payable by the Company,

created  by  the  Company,  except  for  such restrictions on transfer under the

     SECTION  7.2     Issue  of  Securities Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of
                      ------------------------------------- --------------------
Common  Stock.  If  the  Company  at  any  time  or  from time to time after the
-------------
Original  Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities, then the
maximum  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  (as  set forth in the instrument
relating  thereto  without  regard  to  any  provision  contained  therein for a
subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options
or,  in  the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion
or  exchange  of  such  Convertible  Securities and the exercise of such Options
therefor,  shall  be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of
the time of such issuance, provided that Additional Shares of Common Stock shall
not be deemed to have been issued unless the consideration per share (determined
pursuant  to Section 7.4 hereof) of such Additional Shares of Common Stock would
be  less  than the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
issuance  and  provided further that in any such case in which Additional Shares
of  Common  Stock  are  deemed  to  be  issued:

     (a)     No  further adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be made upon the
subsequent issuance of Convertible Securities or shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise  of  such  Options  or  conversion  or  exchange  of  such  Convertible
Securities;

     (b)     If  such  Options or Convertible Securities by their terms provide,
with  the  passage  of  time or otherwise, for any increase in the consideration
payable  to  the  Company,  or  decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable,  upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, the Exercise Price
computed  upon  the  original  issuance  thereof, and any subsequent adjustments
based  thereon, shall, upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be
recomputed  to  reflect  such  increase  or  decrease insofar as it affects such
Options  or  the  rights  of  conversion  or  exchange  under  such  Convertible
Securities;

     (c)     No  readjustment pursuant to clause (b) above shall have the effect
of  increasing  the Exercise Price to an amount which exceeds the Exercise Price
on  the  original  adjustment  date;  and

     (d)     In  the event of any change in the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable  upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any Option or Convertible
Security,  including,  but  not  limited  to,  a  change  resulting  from  the
anti-dilution  provisions  thereof,  the  Exercise  Price  then  in effect shall
forthwith  be  readjusted  to such Exercise Price as would have obtained had the
adjustment  which  was  made  upon  the  issuance  of such Option or Convertible
Security  which have not been exercised oi converted prior to such change in the
number of shares of Common Stock been made upon the basis of such change, but no
further  adjustment  shall  be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon
the  exercise  or  conversion  of  any  such  option  or  Convertible  Security.

     SECTION  7.3     Adjustment  of  Exercise Price Upon Issuance of Additional
                      ----------------------------------------------------------
Shares  of  Common  Stock.  In the event the Company Shall at any time after the
-------------------------
Original  Issue  Date  issue  Additional  Shares  of  Common  Stock  (including
Additional  Shares  of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 7.2,
but excluding shares issued as a dividend or distribution as provided in Section
7.6  or  upon  a stock split or combination as provided in Section 7.5), without
consideration  or  for a consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section
7.4  hereof) less than the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to  such issuance, then and in such event, such Exercise Price shall be reduced,
concurrently  with  such  issuance,  to  an  Exercise  Price  equal to the price
determined by dividing (a) the sum of (1) the product derived by multiplying the
Exercise  Price  in  effect  immediately prior to such issuance by the number of
shares  of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (together
with  the  number  of  shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of the
outstanding  Warrants  and  the  conversion  or  exercise  of  any  Convertible
Securities  or  Options),  plus  (2) the aggregate consideration received by the
Corporation (as determined pursuant to Section 7.4 below) upon such issuance, by
(b)  the  number  of  shares  of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
issuance  (together with the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
exercise  of  the  outstanding  Warrants  and  the conversion or exercise of any
Convertible  Securities  or  Options).

     SECTION  7.4     Determination  of  Consideration.  For  purposes  of  this
                      --------------------------------
Section  7,  the  consideration  received by the Company for the issuance of any
Additional  Shares  of  Common  Stock  shall  be  computed  as  follows:

     (a)     Cash  and  Property.  Such  consideration  shall:
             -------------------

          (i)     insofar  as  it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate
of  cash  received by the Company, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued
interest  or  accrued  dividends;

          (ii)     insofar  as  it  consists  of  property  other  than cash, be
computed  at  the  fair  market  value  thereof at the time of such issuance, as
determined  in  good  faith  by  the  Board  of  Directors;  and

          (iii)     in  the  event  Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued
together  with  other  shares  of  securities or other assets of the Company for
consideration  which  covers  both,  be  the proportion of such consideration so
received,  computed  as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above, as determined in
good  faith  by  the  Board  of  Directors.

     (b)     Options  and  Convertible  Securities.  The consideration per share
             -------------------------------------
received  by  the  Company  for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have
been  issued  pursuant  to  Section  7.2,  relating  to  Options and Convertible
Securities,  shall  be  determined  by  dividing:

          (i)     the  total  amount,  if  any,  received  or  receivable by the
Company  as  consideration  for  the  issuance  of  such  Options or Convertible
Securities,  plus  the  minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as
set  forth  in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision
contained  therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to
the  Company  upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of
such  Convertible  Securities,  or  in  the  case  of  Options  for  Convertible
Securities,  the  exercise  of  such  options for Convertible Securities and the
conversion  or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by the maximum number of
shares  of  Common  Stock  (as  set  forth  in the instruments relating thereto,
without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of
such  number)  issuable  upon  the exercise of such options or the conversion or
exchange  of  such  Convertible  Securities.

     SECTION  7.5     Adjustment  for  Stock  Splits  and  Combinations.  If the
                      -------------------------------------------------
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date for
the  Warrants effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Exercise
Price  of  each Warrant then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall
be  proportionately  decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon  exercise  of  such  Warrant  shall  be  proportionately increased.  If the
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date for
the  Warrants combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price
of  each  Warrant  then  in  effect  immediately before the combination shall be
proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise  of  such  Warrant  shall be proportionately decreased.  Any adjustment
under  this  Section  7.5 shall become effective at the close of business on the
date  the  subdivision  or  combination  becomes  effective.

     SECTION 7.6     Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions.  In the
                     ------------------------------------ -------------
event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date
for the Warrants shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution payable in
additional  shares  of  Common  Stock,  then and in each such event the Exercise
Price  for the Warrants then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such
issuance  or,  in  the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the
close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Exercise Price for the
Warrants  then  in  effect  by  a  fraction:

     (a)     the  numerator  of  which  shall  be  the total number of shares of
Common  Stock  issued  and  outstanding  immediately  prior  to the time of such
issuance  or  the  close  of  business  on  such  record  date,  and

     (b)     the  denominator  of  which  shall be the total number of shares of
Common  Stock  issued  and  outstanding  immediately  prior  to the time of such
issuance  or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares
of  Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided,
                                                                       --------
however,  if  such  record  date  shall have been fixed and such dividend is not
-------
fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor,
the  Exercise  Price  for the Warrants shall be recomputed accordingly as of the
close  of business on such record date and thereafter the Exercise Price for the
Warrants  shall  be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual
payment  of  such  dividends  or  distributions.

     The  number  of  Warrant  Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants
shall  be adjusted by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect
immediately  prior  to such adjustment by the number of shares issuable upon the
exercise  of  the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the
product  so  obtained  by  the  adjusted  Exercise  Price.

     SECTION  7.7     Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions.  In the
                      -------------------------------------------------
event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date
for the Warrants shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution payable in
securities  of  the  Company other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each
such  event  provision  shall  be made so that the holders of the Warrants shall
receive  upon  exercise  thereof  in  addition to the number of shares of Common
Stock  receivable  thereupon,  the amount of securities of the Company that they
would  have received had their Warrants been exercised on the date of such event
and  had  thereafter,  during  the  period  from  the  date of such event to and
including  the  conversion  date, retained such securities receivable by them as
aforesaid  during  such  period giving application to all adjustments called for
during  such  period,  under  this  paragraph  with respect to the rights of the
holders  of  the  Warrants.

     SECTION 7.8     Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange, or Substitution.
                     --------------------------------------------- ------------
If  the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be changed
into  the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock,
whether  by  capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a
subdivision  or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above, or a
reorganization,  merger,  consolidation,  or sale of assets provided for below),
then  and  in  each  such  event the holder of the Warrants shall have the right
thereafter to convert each such share of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise
of the Warrants into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities
and  property  receivable  upon  such reorganization, reclassification, or other
change,  by  holders  of  the  number  of  shares of Common Stock for which such
Warrants  might  have  been  exercised immediately prior to such reorganization,
reclassification,  or  change,  all  subject  to  further adjustment as provided
herein.

     SECTION  7.9     Adjustment  for  Merger or Reorganization.  In case of any
                      -----------------------------------------
consolidation  or  merger  of  the  Company  with  or into another Company, each
Warrant  shall  thereafter  be  exercisable for the kind and amount of shares of
stock  or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares
of  Common  Stock of the Company deliverable upon exercise of such Warrant world
have  been  entitled  upon  such  consolidation  or  merger;  and, in such case,
appropriate  adjustment  (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors)
shall  be  made in the application of the provisions in this Article 7 set forth
with  respect  to  the  rights  and  interest  thereafter  of the holders of the
Warrants,  to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 7 (including
provisions  with  respect  to  changes  in and other adjustments of the Exercise
Price)  shall  thereafter  be  applicable,  as  nearly  as reasonably may be, in
relation  to  any  shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon
the  exercise  of  the  Warrants.

     SECTION  7.10  Notice  of  Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares.
                    -----------------------------------------------------------

     (a)     Whenever  the Exercise Price is required to be adjusted as provided
in this Article 7, simultaneously with the adjustment of the Exercise Price, the
number  of  Warrant  Shares  issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be
adjusted  by  multiplying  a  number  equal  to  the  Exercise  Price  in effect
immediately  prior  to such adjustment by the number of shares issuable upon the
exercise  of  the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the
product  so  obtained  by  the  adjusted  Exercise  Price.


                                    Page 13
<PAGE>
     (b)     Whenever  the Exercise Price is required to be adjusted as provided
in  this Article 7, or any other adjustment is required pursuant to this Article
7,  the  Company  shall  forthwith  compute  the adjusted Exercise Price and the
corresponding  number  of  Warrant  Shares purchaseable upon the exercise of the
Warrants  or  any  other  adjustment  made  pursuant to this Article 7 and shall
prepare  a  certificate  setting  forth  such  adjusted  Exercise  Price and the
corresponding  number  of  Warrant  Shares purchaseable upon the exercise of the
Warrants  or any other adjustment made pursuant to this Article 7 and showing in
reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustments are based.  Whenever the
Exercise  Price and the corresponding number of Warrant Shares purchaseable upon
the  exercise  of  the  Warrants  are  adjusted  or any other adjustment is made
pursuant  to  this  Article  7,  the Company shall promptly mail, or cause to be
mailed,  to the Warrantholders a statement setting forth the adjustments and the
reasons  for  such  adjustments.

     SECTION  7.11     Form  of  Warrant  Certificate.  Irrespective  of  any
                       ------------------------------
adjustments in the Exercise Price or the kind of Warrant Shares purchasable upon
the  exercise  of  the  Warrants,  Warrant Certificates evidencing such Warrants
theretofore  or  thereafter  issued  may continue to express the same number and
kind  of  Warrant  Shares  as  are  stated in the Warrant Certificates initially
issuable  pursuant  to  this  Agreement.

     SECTION  7.12     No  Impairment.  Without  limiting  the generality of the
                       --------------
foregoing,  the  Company  shall  take  all  such  action  as may be necessary or
appropriate  in  order that the Warrant Shares to be issued upon the exercise of
the  Warrants from time to time outstanding will, when issued, be fully paid and
non-assessable.  In  addition,  without  limiting the generality of Section 6.1,
the  Company shall take all such action as shall be necessary so that, after any
adjustment  to the Exercise Price required hereunder, the total number of shares
of  Common  Stock  or  other capital stock of the Company then authorized by the
Amended  Articles  and  available for the purpose of issuance upon such exercise
shall  exceed  the  total  number  of  shares  of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of all of the outstanding Warrants.  The Company will not, by amendment
of  its  Articles  of  Incorporation  or through any reorganization, transfer of
assets,  consolidation,  merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other  voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of
any  of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will
at  all  times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of
this  Article  7  and  in  the  taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate  in  order  to  protect  the  rights  of  the Warrantholders against
impairment.
