Item 8.01. Other Events.

     On August 11, 2004, AirGate PCS, Inc. (the “Company”) granted 45,000 and 30,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) in the ordinary course of business to, respectively, William J. Loughman, the Company’s chief financial officer, and Roy E. Hadley, the Company’s vice president, general counsel and secretary. The original terms of these options called for them to vest ratably over four years on the anniversary of the date of their grant. On December 21, 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the immediate acceleration of the vesting of one-half of Messrs. Loughman’s and Hadley’s options on a pro-rata basis. As a result of the acceleration of options representing 37,500 shares of Common Stock and based on the closing price of the Common Stock on December 21, 2004, the Company expects to incur a non-cash charge of approximately $780,000 for the quarter ending December 31, 2004.
