                         LIMITED FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT

         THIS LIMITED FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is dated as of
November 16, 2001, among PINNACLE TOWERS INC., a Delaware corporation (the
"Borrower"), the Parent, each of their Subsidiaries (the Borrower, the Parent
and their Subsidiaries, each a "Loan Party" and collectively, the "Loan
Parties") the several Lenders (as such term is defined in the hereinafter
described Credit Agreement) parties to this Agreement, and BANK OF AMERICA,
N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the
"Administrative Assets").

                                   RECITALS:

         A.       The Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the several
Lenders parties thereto entered into that certain Fifth Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement, dated as of September 17, 1999 (as amended through the date
hereof and as may be further amended, modified, restated, supplemented, renewed,
extended, increased, rearranged and/or substituted from time to time, the
"Credit Agreement").

         B.       The Borrower has advised the Lenders that the Defaults and
Events of Default set forth on the attached Schedule I (the "Anticipated
Defaults") will exist and be continuing upon the Borrower's delivery of a
Compliance Certificate on November 14, 2001.

         C.       The Borrower has requested that the Lenders agree to forbear
from exercising certain rights available to them as a result of the Anticipated
Defaults by the Borrower, and the Lenders have agreed to do so on the terms set
forth herein.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants,
terms, conditions, representations and warranties herein contained, the parties
hereto agree hereby as follows:

         SECTION 1.        DEFINED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein and not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit
Agreement.

         SECTION 2.        LIMITED FORBEARANCE. The Borrower has requested that
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders forbear from exercising the rights and
remedies available to them as a result of the Anticipated Defaults during the
period from the date hereof to and including December 12, 2001. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree to forbear from exercising
the rights and remedies available to them as a result of the Anticipated
Defaults, including the right to demand default interest under Section 2.08 of
the Credit Agreement, from the Effective Date (defined in Section 10(f) below)
to and including the Termination Date (as defined below), subject to the terms
of this Agreement and subject to the occurrence of no further Default or Event
of Default either pursuant to the Sections of the Credit Agreement subject to
the Anticipated Defaults or otherwise. Upon the earlier of (i) the occurrence of
any Default or Event of Default, other than the Anticipated Defaults, (ii) the
amendment and waiver of the Anticipated Defaults by the requisite Lenders under
the terms of the Credit Agreement, or (iii) December 12, 2001 (the "Termination
Date"), the Administrative

<PAGE>
 Agent's and the Lenders' agreement herein to forbear from exercising the rights
and remedies available to them as the result of the Anticipated Defaults shall
immediately terminate, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be
entitled immediately to exercise any and all rights and remedies available under
the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Paper, as law, in equity, or otherwise,
without notice, demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration,
notice of intent to accelerate, protest, or other formalities of any kind, all
of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. The Borrower and the
Lenders hereby acknowledge Borrower's anticipated noncompliance with the Credit
Agreement as a result of the Anticipated Defaults and acknowledge that this
Agreement constitutes notice thereof and waive any and all further notices with
respect thereto. The agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
herein shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default
including without limitation the Anticipated Defaults. The Borrower hereby
acknowledges that, unless and until the Anticipated Defaults are waived by the
requisite number of Lenders in accordance with the Credit Agreement, the Lenders
shall have no commitment to make Revolver Advances or issue Letters of Credit or
otherwise advance any funds to the Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision in
the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Paper to the contrary, the parties hereto
expressly acknowledge and agree that, until the Termination Date, the
Administrative Agent may renew (but not increase) Letters of Credit in existence
as of the date hereof. Notwithstanding any provision in the Credit Agreement or
any other Loan Paper, the parties hereto expressly acknowledge and agree that,
any draw under any Letter of Credit during the term of this Agreement shall
immediately and automatically result in an obligation for the Borrower to
reimburse the Administrative Agent for any such draw (which reimbursement
obligation may not be paid by the Borrower with the proceeds of a Revolver
Advance). Failure of the Borrower to reimburse the Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds for any such draw within 2 business hours after
receipt of notice of such draw shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder
and under the Credit Agreement (such reimbursement to be effected by payment in
full from the cash collateral account described in Section 4(i) hereof or by
wire transfer of immediately available funds, or any combination of the
foregoing). The parties hereto expressly acknowledge and agree that the
agreement of the Borrower in the preceding two sentences does not affect or
abrogate any of the obligations of the Lenders to the Administrative Agent to
participate in any such draws under the Letter of Credit. The parties hereto
further expressly acknowledge and agree that the agreements of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders herein shall not in any manner restrict or
impair any rights or remedies available to them with respect to any Persons
other than the Borrower and other Persons guaranteeing the Obligations or
providing collateral security therefor.

         SECTION 3.        OTHER AGREEMENTS. To induce the Administrative Agent
and Lenders to enter into this Agreement, the Borrowers hereby agree as follows:

         (a)      During the period from the Effective Date and continuing
until the Termination Date, the Applicable Margin shall be (i) with respect to
Advances outstanding under the Term Loan A and the Revolver Loan shall be
3.75% per annum for LIBOR Advances and 2.75% per annum for Base Advances and
(ii) with respect to Advances under the Term Loan B, 4.00% per annum for LIBOR
Advances and 3.00% per annum for Base Advances, provided that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, if there exists a Default or Event of Default other than the

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Anticipated Defaults, no LIBOR borrowings shall be available to the Borrower.
During the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date, while
interest will accrue at the rates described above with respect to the
Applicable Margin, the Borrower will pay interest at the rates per annum and
at the times provided in the Credit Agreement. The aggregate additional amount
of interest owned hereunder as a result of the increase in interest rate set
forth in this Section 3(a) shall be due and payable on the Termination Date.

Lien on any of its assets, (ii) with respect to any Capital Stock owned by the

         SECTION 4.        PROCEEDS OF ASSET SALES. On the Effective Date and
continuing until the Termination Date, the Borrower shall use the Net Proceeds
of sales of assets or Properties by the Borrower, the Parent or any of their
Subsidiaries (which for purposes of this Agreement shall not exclude asset
sales in the ordinary course of business, but provided that no such sales of
assets or Properties by the Parent, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries
shall be permitted except as set forth in Section 5 hereof) as follows: (i)
first, to establish a $2,500,000 cash collateral account to secure the
Obligations, including but not limited to any letter of credit reimbursement
obligations, in accordance with the terms of a Restricted Cash Collateral
Account Agreement executed by the parties in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A, and (ii) second, to establish a $200,000 retainer for the benefit of
Special Counsel in connection with the continued legal expenses and legal fees
and the consulting fees of Deloitte Consulting associated with the Loans. To
the extent that the Borrower consummates the sale of ceratin of the St. Louis,
Missouri Collocation Facilities or any other sales of assets and Properties by
the Parent, the Borrower and their Subsidiaries, the Net Proceeds shall be
applied as described above to the extent there has not already been an asset
sale or there has been an asset sale that did not generate funds adequate to
fund the referenced account and retainer. Any additional Net Proceeds from such
sale of the St. Louis, Missouri Collocation Facilities and all other Net
Proceeds from all other sales of assets and Properties by the Borrower, the
Parent or any of their Subsidiaries will be applied in the following order: (x)
to immediately prepay the scheduled amortization of the Obligations due on
December 31, 2001, such prepayment to be in an aggregate amount equal to
$7,321,864.00 (each Lender agrees that such prepayment application in the order
of maturity is specifically permitted by the Lender hereunder), (y) to
reimburse the Borrower for all amounts paid by the Borrower between November 1,
2001 and November 15, 2001 for the reimbursement of the Administrative Agent
for its fees and expenses of counsel and consultants in accordance with the
terms of the Credit Agreement, and (z) to the extent of any remaining Net
Proceeds, to prepay the Revolver Loan, the Term Loan A and the Term Loan B,
ratably. Such prepayments amounts under subsection (z) above shall be applied
to installments due in the inverse order of maturity with respect to Term Loan A
and Term Loan B, and shall not affect the scheduled reductions of the
Commitment required by Section 2.11(b) of the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if (A) the Borrower sells the Collocation Facilities located in
Beaumont, Texas in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 below, (B) all
preceding requirements of this Section 4 have been satisfied except subsection
(z) above and (C) amounts in the cash collateral account described in (i) above
are not less than $2,500,000, the Borrower may retain for its own use an amount
equal to 20% of the Net Proceeds of the sale of

                                      -4-

<PAGE>
the Collocation Facilities located in Beaumont, Texas, and the remaining 80% of
such Net Proceeds must be applied in accordance with the terms of subsection (2)
above. Any prepayment amounts applied to the Revolver Loan in accordance with
this Section 4 shall permanently reduce the Commitment.

         Section 5.        PERMITTED ASSETS SALES. On the Effective Date and
continuing until the Termination Date, so long as (a) there exists no Default or
Event of Default both before and after giving effect to such sale (except the
Anticipated Defaults), (b) the gross proceeds of each such sale of assets are in
cash only, the Net Proceeds are distributed in accordance with the terms of
Section 4 hereof and the Borrower is in full compliance with the terms of
Section 4 hereof and this Agreement, and (c) all gross proceeds and other monies
from the buyer of any such assets and Properties are wired directly to the

Subsidiaries or any other Person) pursuant to instructions from the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries whereupon the Administrative Agent shall distribute such funds
as set forth in Section 4 hereof,

                  (i) the Borrower may consummate the sale of its Collocation
         Facilities in St. Louis, Missouri, described on Schedule II hereof,
         provided that, (x) gross cash proceeds related to such asset sale are
         not less than $21,000,000 and (y) such asset sale is consummated in
         strict accordance with the terms of that certain Purchase and Sale
         Agreement executed by the Borrower and the buyer, dated as of October
         4, 2001, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Purchase and
