Re: Limited and Conditional Waiver for Fifth Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement dated as of September 17, 1999, as amended,
among Bank of America, N.A., for itself and as Administrative
Agent (the "Administrative Agent"), the Lenders party thereto
and Pinnacle Towers Inc. (the "Borrower") (as further amended,
substituted or replaced from time-to-time, the "Credit
Agreement")
Dear Xxxxx:
This Limited and Conditional Waiver ("Limited Waiver") is entered into
among the Borrower, Administrative Agent, and the Lenders. All capitalized terms
used in this Limited Waiver but not defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.
The Borrower has informed the Administrative Agent that for the fiscal
quarter ended December 31, 2000, its Leverage Ratio was in excess of 4.75 to
1.00, as required under Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement for such fiscal
quarter.
In addition, the October 12, 2000 waiver letter (the "Waiver") executed
by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and certain of the Lenders, provided
that if the Borrower had not entered into an Amendment to the Credit Agreement
with respect to the sale or transfer of the new San Antonio assets by March 31,
2001, the Borrower would be required immediately to grant to the Lenders a Lien
on such assets and meet other requirements; the Borrower requires an extension
of this March 31, 2001 deadline to April 20, 2001.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, (i) the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby grant a one-time waiver with
respect to Borrower's Leverage Ratio for the fiscal quarter ended December 31,
2000 only, so long as the Borrower's Leverage Ratio for such quarter is not in
excess of 5.00 to 1.00, and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
hereby grant a one-time extension until April 20, 2001 for Borrower to comply
with the terms of the Waiver required to be complied with by March 31, 2001.

As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Limited Waiver,
the Administrative Agent shall have received from the Borrower a five basis
points fee in the amount of $188,000.00 to be allocated on a ratable basis among
the Lenders timely executing this Limited Waiver prior to noon Dallas time, on
Friday, April 13, 2001.
The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that
(a) this Limited Waiver constitutes its legal, valid, and binding obligations,
enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof (subject as to enforcement of
remedies to any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium, or other laws
or principles of equity affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights
generally), (b) there exists no Event of Default or Default under the Credit
Agreement (other than as specifically waived hereby), (c) its representations
and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement and other Loan Papers are true
and correct on the date hereof and after giving effect to this Limited Waiver,
(d) it has complied with all agreements and conditions to be complied with by it
under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Papers by the date hereof except
as waived hereby, and (e) the Credit Agreement, as waived hereby, and the other
Loan Papers remain in full force and effect.
The Borrower acknowledges that this Limited Waiver is a one-time
limited and conditional continuing waiver of specific provisions of the Credit
Agreement, except as waived hereby, and does not constitute a waiver by any
Lender of any of its rights or remedies now or at any time in the future. The
Borrower acknowledges that this Limited Waiver constitutes a "Loan Paper" as
defined in the Credit Agreement.
THIS LIMITED WAIVER AND THE LOAN PAPERS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO
UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EXCEPT AS MODIFIED OR
SUPPLEMENTED HEREBY, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN PAPERS AND ALL OTHER
DOCUMENTS AND AGREEMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH SHALL CONTINUE IN FULL
FORCE AND EFFECT.
This Limited Waiver may be executed in any number of counterparts, all
of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. In making
proof hereof, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for any
counterpart other than one signed by the party against which enforcement is
sought.

THE LIMITED WAIVER AND ALL LOAN PAPERS SHALL BE DEEMED CONTRACTS MADE
IN DALLAS, TEXAS AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND

VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF ALL OR ANY PART OF
