                          *  These rates are the average of price cap and NECA pool companies.   Interstate
                               revenues of these companies comprise approximately 95% of the industry total.
                              The industry rates in this table are the weighted averages of the carriers.   The
                              weights are the common line minutes.  Rates for the current period are those
                               filed to be effective July 1, 1996.

                        **  The rate charged to residential and single-line business customers is capped
                               at a level of $3.50.  Carriers are not permitted to charge the full amount unless
                              justified by the underlying costs.

                      ***  The rate charged to multiline business customers is capped at a level of $6.00.
                              Carriers are not permitted to charge the full amount unless justified by the
                              underlying costs.  As a result, some companies charge less than the full $6.00.

                    ****  This is the maximum rate applied to centrex lines that were in place or on order
                              as of July 27, 1983.   Prior to April 1, 1989,  these embedded centrex lines had
                              a lower rate cap than new centrex lines.  Customers with new centrex lines paid
                              the multiline business subscriber line charge.  Since April 1, 1989,  however,
                              the caps on centrex and multiline business charges have been at the same level.
