STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH
The graph below shows the cumulative total shareholder return assuming the investment of $100 on
December 31, 1999 (and the reinvestment of dividends thereafter) in each of (i) the Company’s common shares
(ii) the S&P 500tStock Index, (iii) the Network Telecom Peer Group, and (iv) the New Custom Composite
Index. With the Company’s transformation from a national carrier of data and Internet traffic to a local exchange
company, the New Custom Composite Index should provide a more meaningful comparison between the
Company’s performance and that of its peers than the Network Telecom Peer Group used previously.
