Items 3, 4, 6 and 7 of the Statement of Schedule 13D, as amended

pursuant to Rule 13d-1 of the Rules and Regulations under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"),
by Frontier Corporation, a New York corporation (formerly known
as Rochester Telephone Corporation) ("Frontier"), relating to the
Common Stock, without par value (the "WCT Shares"), of WCT
Communications, Inc., a Washington corporation ("WCT"), are
hereby amended by adding to such items the information set forth
below.

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
- ------------------------------------------------------------
     As more fully described in Item 4 hereof, Frontier has
entered into a Shareholder's Agreement dated as of February 21,
1995 with Richard Frockt (the "Frockt Agreement") and a
Shareholder's Agreement dated as of February 21, 1995 with
Christopher E. Edgecomb (the "Edgecomb Agreement" and, together
with the Frockt Agreement, the "Shareholder's Agreements"). 
Messrs. Frockt and Edgecomb (each, a "Shareholder") entered into
their respective Shareholder's Agreements to induce Frontier and
Rochester Subsidiary Twenty-Eight, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Frontier ("Sub") to enter into
the Merger Agreement described in item 4.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.
- ---------------------------------
     As of February 21, 1995, Frontier, Sub and WCT entered into
an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement")
providing for the merger (the "Merger") of Sub, with and into
WCT, which shall be the surviving corporation of the Merger.  The
Merger Agreement supercedes an agreement entered into by the
parties on November 8, 1994 (the "Original Merger Agreement"),
which was described in the Initial  Schedule 13D.  The parties
entered into the Merger Agreement following termination of the
Original Merger Agreement as a result of WCT's failure to satisfy
certain financial requirements contained therein.  At the
effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each WCT
Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall
be converted into the right to receive $5.875 in cash, other than

5
any WCT Shares owned by Frontier or Sub and any WCT Shares that
are subject to dissenters' rights.  The obligations of the
parties to the Merger Agreement to effect the Merger are subject
to certain conditions, and prior to the Effective Time, Frontier,
Sub or WCT may terminate the Merger Agreement under certain
circumstances, in each case as set forth in the Merger Agreement. 

     Concurrently with and as a condition to the execution and
delivery of the Merger Agreement, Frontier entered into the
Shareholder's Agreements.  The Shareholder's Agreements supercede
the respective agreements between each Shareholder and Frontier
which were entered into in connection with the Original Merger
Agreement and which were described in the Initial Schedule 13D
(the "Original Shareholder's Agreements").  The Original
Shareholder's Agreements terminated in accordance with their
respective terms upon the termination of the Original Merger
Agreement.  

     Subject to the terms and conditions of his respective
Shareholder's Agreement, each Shareholder has agreed to vote, and
has appointed Frontier as his proxy to vote, at any meeting of
WCT shareholders, the WCT Shares then held by him (at February
21, 1995, 3,522,759 WCT Shares were held by Frockt and 902,655
WCT Shares were held by Edgecomb), (i) in favor of the Merger,
(ii) against any action or agreement that would result in a
breach in any respect of any covenant, representation or warranty
or any other obligation or agreement of WCT under the Merger
Agreement and (iii) against any action or agreement (other than
the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby)
that would impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or attempt to
discourage the Merger (collectively, the "Merger Related
Matters").  During the term of each Shareholder's respective
Shareholder's Agreement and  subject to the conditions contained
therein, each Shareholder has agreed to refrain from soliciting
certain proposals regarding WCT, to restrictions upon the
transfer of his WCT Shares and to promptly notify Frontier of any
WCT Shares acquired by him.

     In addition, the Frockt Agreement provides that immediately
prior to the consummation of the Merger that Frontier will

6
purchase all of the WCT Shares then owned by Frockt.  The
consideration to be paid by Frontier for each of Frockt's Shares
is $3.75 per WCT Share in cash, subject to the waiver or
satisfaction of certain conditions.

     The Shareholder's Agreements terminate on the first to occur
of (i) the Effective Time, (ii) termination of the Merger
Agreement in accordance with its terms (a "Termination"), and
(iii) written notice of termination of such agreement by Frontier
to such Shareholder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Frockt
Agreement provides that if any at time within nine months after a
Termination, (i) any WCT Shares owned by Frockt are sold,
exchanged or converted in connection with a Third Party
Acquisition (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or (ii) WCT
enters into definitive agreements with respect to a Third Party
Acquisition with any person which contemplates the sale, exchange
or conversion of such shares, Frockt shall pay to Frontier one-
half of the amount in excess of $5.875 per WCT Share received by
Frockt in connection with such Third Party Acquisition (the
"Fee").  In addition, in the event of a Termination, the Frockt
Agreement also provides that Frontier shall retain the proxy as
to 1,820,535 of the WCT Shares covered by the Frockt Agreement
during the period commencing on the date of Termination and
ending six months thereafter, and that such WCT Shares may be
voted in Frontier's sole discretion during such period.
          If the Merger is completed as planned, the board of
directors of WCT will consist of the directors of Sub at the time
of the Merger.  At the Effective Time, the Certificate of
Incorporation and By-Laws of Sub shall be the Articles of
Incorporation and By-Laws, of WCT (except that such Articles
shall provide that the name of the surviving corporation of the
Merger shall be "WCT Communications, Inc." and shall be amended
to the extent necessary to comply with Washington law).  If the
Merger is completed as planned, Frontier expects to cause WCT to
seek to have the WCT Shares deregistered under the Exchange Act
and to cease to be quoted on the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automatic Quotation System.

     The preceding summary of certain provisions of the Merger
Agreement and the Shareholder's Agreements is not intended to be

7
complete and is qualified in its entirely by reference to the
full text of such agreements, copies of which are filed as
Exhibits hereto and which are incorporated herein.

     Other than as described above, Frontier has no plans or
proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions
described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule
13D (although subject to the provisions of the Merger Agreement
it reserves the right to develop such plans).

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
- -----------------------------------------------
     (a) and (b)  Under the definition of "beneficial owner" as
set forth in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of February 21, 1995, Frontier
may be deemed to have beneficially owned the 3,522,759 WCT Shares
subject to the Frockt Agreement and the 902,655 WCT Shares
subject to the Edgecomb Agreement, constituting, in the
aggregate, approximately 30.0% of the outstanding WCT Shares
(based on the number of outstanding WCT Shares represented by WCT
in the Merger Agreement to be outstanding as of February 21,
1995).  With respect to the Merger Related Matters, Frontier has
sole power to vote the 3,522,759 and 902,655 WCT Shares subject
to the Shareholder's Agreements.  Moreover, in the event of a
Termination, Frontier shall have sole power to vote 1,820,535 of
the 3,522,759 WCT Shares subject to the Frockt Agreement for the
six month period commencing on the date of Termination.  Neither
the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be
deemed to constitute an admission that Frontier is the beneficial
owner of the WCT Shares referred to in this paragraph for
purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other
purpose, and such beneficial owner is expressly disclaimed.

     To the best knowledge of Frontier, no director or executive
officer of Frontier beneficially owns any WCT Shares.

     (c)  The Shareholder's Agreements were executed as of
February 21, 1995.


8
     (d)  Frontier has no right to receive dividends from, or the
proceeds from the sale of, the WCT Shares which are subject to
the Shareholder's Agreements, except as described in Item 4
hereof with respect to the Fee. 

     (e)  Not applicable.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements or Understandings with Respect
          to Securities of the Issuer
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
     Except as described in Item 4 hereof and in item 6 of the
Initial Schedule 13D, neither Frontier nor, to the best knowledge
of Frontier, any director or executive officer of Frontier has
any contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship (legal
or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of
WCT, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any
securities of WCT, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option
arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of
profits or loss or the giving of withholding of proxies.

Item 7.   Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

          1995 among Frontier, Sub and WCT.

     WHEREAS, the parties entered into the Agreement and Plan of

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the
mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and intending
to be legally bound hereby, Frontier, Sub and WCT hereby agree as
follows:

ARTICLE I   -   THE MERGER
- --------------------------
     SECTION 1.1    The Merger.   Upon the terms and subject to
the conditions of this Agreement, and in accordance with the
Washington Business Corporation Act ("Washington Law") and the
Delaware General Corporation Law ("Delaware Law"), at the
Effective Time (as defined in Section 2.2), Sub shall be merged
with and into WCT.  As a result of the Merger, the separate
corporate existence of Sub shall cease and WCT shall continue as
the surviving corporation of the Merger (the "Surviving
Corporation").  At Frontier's election, the Merger may


alternatively be structured so that (i) WCT is merged with and
into Frontier, Sub or any other direct or indirect subsidiary of
Frontier or (ii) any direct or indirect subsidiary of Frontier
other than Sub is merged with and into WCT.  In the event of such
an election, the parties agree to execute an appropriate
amendment to this Agreement in order to reflect such election.

     SECTION 1.2    Effective Time.   As soon as practicable
after the satisfaction or, if permissible, waiver of the
conditions set forth in Article VII, the parties hereto shall
cause the Merger to be consummated by delivering articles of
merger (the "Articles of Merger") to the Secretary of State of
the State of Washington and by filing this Agreement or a
certificate of merger (the "Certificate of Merger") with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in such form as
required by, and executed in accordance with the relevant
provisions of, Washington Law and Delaware Law (the date and time
of the later to occur of the filing of the Articles of Merger
with the Secretary of State of the State of Washington and the
filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State
of the State of Delaware (or such later time as is specified in
the Articles of Merger and Certificate of Merger) being the
"Effective Time").  

     SECTION 1.3    Effects of the Merger.   The Merger shall
have the effects set forth in the applicable provisions of
Washington Law and Delaware Law.  Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all
the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and
franchises of WCT and Sub shall vest in the Surviving
Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of WCT and Sub
shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving
Corporation.

     SECTION 1.4    Articles of Incorporation; By-Laws.   (a) 
Unless otherwise determined by Frontier prior to the Effective
Time, the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation
shall, as a result of the Merger, be changed so as to read in
their entirety as closely as possible to the Certificate of


Incorporation of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time
except, (i) that at the Effective Time Article I of the Articles
of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended to
read in its entirety as follows:  "The name of this Corporation
is 'WCT Communications, Inc.' " and (ii) in the case of a merger
where WCT is the Surviving Corporation, to the extent necessary
to comply with or conform to Washington Law, until thereafter
amended as provided by law and such Articles of Incorporation.
     (b)  Unless otherwise determined by Frontier prior to the
Effective Time, the By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation shall,
as a result of the Merger, be changed so as to read in their
entirety as closely as possible to the By-Laws of Sub immediately
prior to the Effective Time except, in the case of a merger where
WCT is the Surviving Corporation, to the extent necessary to
comply with or conform to Washington Law, until thereafter
amended as provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation of the
Surviving Corporation and such By-Laws.

     SECTION 1.5    Directors and Officers.   The directors of
Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial
directors of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in
accordance with the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the
Surviving Corporation, and the officers of WCT immediately prior
to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the
Surviving Corporation, in each case until their respective
successors are duly elected or appointed (as the case may be) and
qualified.

     SECTION 1.6    Conversion of Securities.   At the Effective
Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part
of Sub, WCT or the holders of any of the following securities:
     (a)  Each share of WCT Common Stock (a "Share") issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than
any Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 1.6(b), any
Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 1.8(a) and Shares owned
by Sub) shall be cancelled, extinguished and converted into the
right to receive $5.875, in cash (the "Merger Consideration")
payable to the holder thereof, without interest, upon surrender
of the certificate formerly representing such Share in the manner


provided in Section 1.9, less any required withholding taxes.
     (b)  Each Share which is authorized but unissued immediately
prior to the Effective Time and each Share owned by Frontier or
Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled
and retired without any conversion thereof and no payment or
distribution shall be made with respect thereto.
     (c)  Each share of common, preferred or other capital stock
of Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable share of identical common, preferred or
other capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

     SECTION 1.7    Treatment of Employee Options and Warrants.  
Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding
employee and director stock option and any related stock
appreciation right (together, an "Employee Option") and each
outstanding warrant to purchase Shares (a "Warrant") whether or
not then exercisable shall be cancelled by WCT, and each holder
of a cancelled Employee Option or Warrant shall be entitled to
receive at the Effective Time or as soon as practicable
thereafter (or, if later, the date six months and one day
following the grant of an Employee Option if such delay is
required by then applicable law) from WCT in consideration for
the cancellation of such Employee Option or Warrant an amount in
cash equal to the product of (i) the number of Shares previously
subject to such Employee Option or Warrant and (ii) the excess,
if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per
Share previously subject to such Employee Option or Warrant.

     SECTION 1.8    Dissenting Shares.   (a)  Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Shares which are
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are
held by holders of Shares who have properly exercised dissenters'
rights with respect to the Merger in accordance with RCW 23B.13,
et seq., ("RCW 23B.13") of Washington Law (collectively, the
"Dissenting Shares"), shall not be converted into or represent
the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but such holders
of Shares shall be entitled to receive payment of the fair value
of such Shares in accordance with the provisions of RCW 23B.13
unless and until such shareholders fail to perfect or shall have


effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to receive payment of
the fair value for such Shares under  RCW 23B.13.  If, after the
Effective Time, any such shareholder fails to perfect or shall
have effectively withdrawn or lost such rights, such Shares shall
thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and become
exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the right to receive the
Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, upon
surrender of the certificate or certificates formerly
representing such Shares in the manner provided in Section 1.9,
less any required withholding taxes.
     (b)  WCT shall give Frontier (i) prompt notice of any
demands for payment pursuant to RCW 23B.13 received by WCT,
withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served
pursuant to Washington Law and received by WCT and (ii) the
opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with
respect to demands for payment under Washington Law.  WCT shall
not, except with the prior written consent of Frontier, make any
payment with respect to any such demands for payment or offer to
settle or settle any such demands.

     SECTION 1.9    Surrender of Shares; Stock Transfer Books.  
(a)  Prior to the Effective Time, Sub shall designate a bank or
trust company to act as agent for the holders of Shares in
connection with the Merger (the "Paying Agent") to receive the
Merger Consideration to which holders of Shares shall become
entitled pursuant to Section 1.6(a) and Section 1.7.  When and as
needed, Frontier or Sub will make available to the Paying Agent
sufficient funds to make all payments pursuant to Section 1.9(b). 
Such funds shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by
Sub or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation,
provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or
guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper
obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor's Corporation, respectively, or
in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or
banker's acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding
$500,000,000.  Any net profit resulting from, or interest or
income produced by, such investments will be payable to the
Surviving Corporation or Frontier, as Frontier directs.


     (b)  Promptly after the Effective Time, the Surviving
Corporation shall cause to be mailed to each record holder, as of
the Effective Time, of an outstanding certificate or certificates
which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Shares
(the "Certificates"), a form of letter of transmittal (which
shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss
and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper
delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent) and
instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the
Certificates for payment of the Merger Consideration therefor. 
Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of a Certificate, together
with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly
executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such
other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions,
the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in
exchange therefor the Merger Consideration for each Share
formerly represented by such Certificate, and such Certificate
shall then be cancelled.  No interest shall be paid or accrued
for the benefit of holders of the Certificates on the Merger
Consideration payable upon the surrender of the Certificates.  If
payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a person
other than the person in whose name the surrendered Certificate
is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that the
Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be
otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person
requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other
taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger
Consideration to a person other than the registered holder of the
Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the
satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such tax either
has been paid or is not applicable.
     (c)  At any time following six months after the Effective
Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the
Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds (including any interest
received with respect thereto) which had been made available to
the Paying Agent and which have not been disbursed to holders of
Certificates, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to
look to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property,
escheat or other similar laws) only as general creditors thereof


with respect to the Merger Consideration payable upon due
surrender of their Certificates.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
neither the Surviving Corporation nor the Paying Agent shall be
liable to any holder of a Certificate for Merger Consideration
delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable
abandoned property, escheat or similar law.
     (d)  At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of WCT
shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further
registration of transfers of shares of the WCT Common Stock on
the records of WCT.  From and after the Effective Time, the
holders of Certificates evidencing ownership of Shares
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease
to have any rights with respect to such Shares except as
otherwise provided for herein or by applicable law.

ARTICLE II   -   THE CLOSING
- ----------------------------
     Subject to Article VIII, the closing (the "Closing") of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall take place on a
date to which Frontier and WCT may agree (the "Closing Date"),
provided that in the absence of an agreement by the parties to
the contrary the Closing shall take place at 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the fifth business day after the later to occur of
satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to Closing set forth in
Article VII.  The Closing shall be held at the offices of
Frontier in Rochester, New York, or at such other place as to

ARTICLE III   -    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF WCT
- ---------------------------------------------------
     WCT hereby represents and warrants to Frontier and Sub that,
except as set forth on Schedule 3, attached hereto and made a
part hereof:

     SECTION 3.1    Organization and Qualification; Subsidiaries. 
Each of WCT and each of its subsidiaries is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has the requisite
corporate power and authority and any necessary governmental


approvals to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry
on its business as it is now being conducted, except where the
failure to be so organized, existing and in good standing or to
have such power, authority and governmental approvals would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below).  Each of WCT and
each of its subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed as a
foreign corporation to do business, and is in good standing, in
each jurisdiction where the character of its properties owned,
leased or operated by it or the nature of its activities makes
such qualification or licensing necessary, except for such
failures to be so duly qualified or licensed and in good standing
which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to either have a Material Adverse Effect or prevent the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  When used
anywhere in this Agreement in connection with WCT or any of its
subsidiaries, the term "Material Adverse Effect" means any change
or effect that is or is reasonably likely to be materially
adverse to the business, assets, financial condition, or results
of operations of each of WCT , West Coast Telecommunications,
Inc. ("West Coast") and Business Telemanagement, Inc. ("BTI")
(each of West Coast and BTI being known herein as a "Significant
Subsidiary"), in each case  taken as a whole as to WCT or any one
of its Significant Subsidiaries individually.

     SECTION 3.2    Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws.   WCT
has heretofore furnished to Frontier a complete and correct copy
of the Articles of Incorporation and the By-Laws of WCT as
currently in effect.  Such Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws and
any organizational minutes of the incorporator of WCT and its
Board of Directors  are in full force and effect and no other
organizational documents are applicable to or binding upon WCT. 
WCT is not in violation of or in conflict with any of the
provisions of its Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws.

     SECTION 3.3    Capitalization.  The authorized capital stock
of WCT consists of 100,000,000 shares of the WCT Common Stock and
10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, without par value
(collectively, "WCT Preferred Stock").  As of February 20, 1995,


(i) 14,728,606 shares of the WCT Common Stock are issued and
outstanding, all of which were validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and were issued free of preemptive (or similar)
rights, (ii) no shares of the WCT Common Stock are authorized but
unissued, (iii) an aggregate of 971,617 shares of the WCT Common
Stock are reserved for issuance and issuable upon or otherwise
deliverable in connection with the exercise of outstanding
Employee Options issued pursuant to the Plans (as defined in
Section 3.10), and (iv) 276,000 shares of WCT Common Stock are
reserved for issuance and issuable upon or otherwise deliverable
in connection with the exercise of Warrants.  No shares of WCT
Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding.  Except as set forth
above and except as a result of the exercise of outstanding
Employee Options and Warrants as of February 20, 1995, there are
outstanding (i) no shares of capital stock or other voting
securities of WCT, (ii) no securities of WCT convertible into or
exchangeable for shares of capital stock or voting securities of
WCT, (iii) no options or other rights to acquire from WCT, and no
obligation of WCT to issue, any capital stock, voting securities
or securities convertible into or exchangeable for capital stock
or voting securities of WCT and (iv) no equity equivalents,
interests in the ownership or earnings of WCT or other similar
rights (collectively, "WCT Securities").  There are no
outstanding obligations of WCT or any of its subsidiaries to
repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any WCT Securities. 
There are no other options, calls, warrants or other rights,
agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character relating
to the issued or unissued capital stock of WCT or any of its
subsidiaries to which WCT or any of its subsidiaries is a party. 
All shares of the WCT Common Stock subject to issuance as
provided above, upon issuance on the terms and conditions
specified in the instruments pursuant to which they are issuable,
shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free of preemptive (or similar) rights.  Except
as provided pursuant to Section 2.7 of this Agreement, there are
no outstanding contractual obligations of WCT or any of its
subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any
shares of the WCT Common Stock or the capital stock of any
subsidiary or, except as described below, to provide funds to or


make any investment (in the form of a loan, capital contribution
or otherwise) in any such subsidiary or any other entity, nor has
WCT granted any guarantees for the benefit of any unrelated
entities.  WCT has not adopted a shareholders' rights plan.  
Each of the outstanding shares of capital stock of each of WCT's
subsidiaries is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and is owned free and clear of all security
interests, liens, claims, pledges, agreements, limitations in
voting rights, charges or other encumbrances of any nature
whatsoever.  WCT has delivered to Frontier prior to the date
hereof a list of the subsidiaries and associated entities of WCT
which evidences, among other things, the amount of capital stock
or other equity interests owned by WCT, directly or indirectly,
in such subsidiaries or associated entities.  No entity in which
WCT owns, directly or indirectly, less than a 50% equity interest
is, individually or when taken together with all such other
entities, material to the business of WCT and its subsidiaries
taken as a whole.

     SECTION 3.4    Authority Relative to This Agreement.   WCT
has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and
deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  Upon
approval of this Agreement by the Board of Directors of WCT, this
Agreement will be duly and validly executed and delivered by WCT
and the consummation by WCT of the transactions contemplated
hereby will be duly and validly authorized by all necessary
corporate action and no other corporate proceedings on the part
of WCT will then be necessary to authorize this Agreement or to
consummate the transactions so contemplated (other than, with
respect to the Merger, the approval of this Agreement by the
holders of two-thirds of the outstanding Shares if and to the
extent required by applicable law, and the filing of appropriate
merger documents as required by Washington Law and Delaware Law). 
Once this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by WCT and, assuming the due authorization, execution
and delivery hereof by Frontier and Sub, it shall constitute a
legal, valid and binding obligation of WCT enforceable against
WCT in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability


(i) may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other
similar laws affecting or relating to enforcement of creditors'
rights generally and (ii) is subject to general principles of
equity.  Once the Board of Directors of WCT has (i) determined
that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby,
including the Merger and the Merger Consideration to be paid to
the holders of the Shares, are fair to and in the best interests
of the holders of the Shares, (ii) adopted this Agreement,
approved each of the Shareholder's Agreements and each of the
Non-Compete Agreements and the letter amendment to the September
2, 1994 confidentiality agreement between WCT and Frontier, and
approved the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and
(iii) resolved to recommend that the shareholders of WCT vote
their Shares in favor of the Merger and approve this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Board Action"),
(A) the limitations on "interested shareholder transactions"
contained in RCW 23B.17.020 of Washington Law shall be rendered
inapplicable to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby
and (B) the only vote required to authorize the Merger shall be
the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding Shares.  In
addition, once such actions have been taken, neither RCW
23B.19.101, et seq., of Washington Law nor any similar provision
shall be applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby.

     SECTION 3.5    No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.  
(a)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by
WCT do not and will not:  (i) conflict with or violate the
Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws of WCT or the equivalent
organizational documents of any of its Significant Subsidiaries;
(ii) assuming that all consents, approvals and authorizations
contemplated by subsection (b) below have been obtained and all
filings described in such subsection have been made, conflict
with or violate any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or
decree applicable to WCT or any of its Significant Subsidiaries
or by which its or any of their respective properties are bound
or affected; or (iii) result in any breach or violation of or
constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of
time or both could become a default) or result in the loss of a


material benefit under, or give rise to any right of termination,
amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the
creation of a lien or encumbrance on any of the properties or
assets of WCT or any of its Significant Subsidiaries pursuant to,
any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease,
license, permit, franchise or other instrument or obligation to
which WCT or any of its Significant Subsidiaries is a party or by
which WCT or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or its or any of
their respective properties are bound or affected, except, in the
case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such conflicts, violations,
breaches, defaults or other occurrences which would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Merger (any
of such effects being known as "Prevention Effect") or which
would cause a Material Adverse Effect.
     (b)  The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by WCT and the consummation of the Merger by WCT do not
and will not require any consent, approval, authorization or
permit of, action by, filing with or notification to, any
governmental or regulatory authority, domestic or foreign, except
for (i) applicable requirements, if any, of the Exchange Act, the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended
(the "HSR Act"), state securities, takeover and Blue Sky laws,
the Federal Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and state
utility or telecommunication regulatory laws, (ii) the filing and
recordation of appropriate merger or other documents as required
by Washington Law and Delaware Law, and (iii) such consents,
approvals, authorizations, permits, actions, filings or
notifications the failure of which to make or obtain would not
reasonably be expected to (x) cause a Prevention Effect or a
Material Adverse Effect or (y) otherwise prevent or delay WCT
from performing its obligations under this Agreement.

     SECTION 3.6    Compliance.   Neither WCT nor any of its
Significant Subsidiaries is in conflict with, or in default or
violation of, the conflict, default or violation of which would
have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) any law, rule, regulation,
order, judgment or decree applicable to WCT or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries or by which its or any of their


respective properties are bound or affected, or (ii) any note,
bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license,
permit, franchise or other instrument or obligation to which WCT
or any of its Significant Subsidiaries is a party or by which WCT
or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or its or any of their
respective properties are bound or affected.

     SECTION 3.7    SEC Filings; Financial Statements.   (a)  WCT
and, to the extent applicable, each of its then or current
subsidiaries, has filed all forms, reports, statements and
documents required to be filed with the SEC (collectively, the
"SEC Reports"), each of which has complied in all material
respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act,
each as in effect on the date so filed.  WCT has heretofore
delivered or promptly will deliver to Frontier, in the form filed
or to be filed with the SEC (including any amendments thereto),
(i) its (and, to the extent applicable, its subsidiaries') Annual
Reports on Form 10-K for each of the three fiscal years ended
May  31, 1992, the period ended June 30, 1992 and the two fiscal
years ended June 30, 1993 and 1994 and its Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q for each of the quarterly periods ended March 31, 1994,
September 30, 1994, and December 31, 1994 and thereafter, (ii)
all definitive proxy statements relating to WCT's (and such
subsidiaries') meetings of shareholders (whether annual or
special) and (iii) all other reports or registration statements
filed by WCT (and such subsidiaries) with the SEC.  None of such
forms, reports or documents (including but not limited to any
financial statements or schedules included or incorporated by
reference therein) filed by WCT and its then or current
subsidiaries contained, when filed, any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be
stated or incorporated by reference therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading.  Except to the extent
revised or superseded by a subsequent filing with the SEC (a copy
of which has been provided to Frontier prior to the date hereof),
none of the SEC Reports filed by WCT prior to the date hereof
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to


state a material fact required to be stated or incorporated by
reference therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.
     (b)  Each of the audited and unaudited consolidated interim
financial statements of WCT (including, in each case, any related
notes thereto) included or to be included in its Annual Reports
on Form 10-K for each of the three fiscal years ended May 31,
1992 and June 30, 1993 and 1994 and the period ended June 30,
1992 and in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for its fiscal
quarters ended March 31, 1994, September 30, 1994, and December
31, 1994 and thereafter, which have previously been or will be
furnished to Frontier, has been or will be prepared in accordance
with GAAP (as defined in Section 9.3(d) below) applied on a
consistent basis throughout the periods involved (except as may
be indicated in the notes thereto) and each fairly presents or
will present the consolidated financial position of WCT and its
subsidiaries at the respective dates thereof and the consolidated
results of its operations and changes in cash flows for the
periods indicated, except that the unaudited interim financial
statements are subject to normal and recurring year-end
adjustments.
     (c)  Except as and to the extent set forth on the
consolidated balance sheet of WCT and its subsidiaries at
December 31, 1994, neither WCT nor any of its subsidiaries has
any liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether accrued,
absolute, contingent or otherwise) which would be required to be
reflected on a balance sheet or in the notes thereto prepared in
accordance with GAAP, except for liabilities or obligations
incurred in the ordinary course of business since December 31,
1994 which would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
     (d)  The accounts, notes and other receivables, whether
current or non-current, of each of WCT and each of its
subsidiaries shown on the most recent consolidated balance sheets
delivered to Frontier prior to the date hereof were generated in
the ordinary course.  To the knowledge of WCT, the reserves in
the consolidated balance sheets of WCT for doubtful accounts are
adequate.


     (e)  WCT has heretofore furnished to Frontier a complete and
correct copy of any amendments or modifications, which have not
yet been filed with the SEC, to agreements, documents or other
instruments which previously had been filed by WCT with the SEC
pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.
     (f)  WCT shall not be deemed to be in violation of the
representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.7 to
the extent it is required under GAAP and the applicable rules and
regulations of the SEC as advised by Deloitte & Touche LLP and
its independent counsel to restate WCT's consolidated financial
statements for prior periods (the "Restatements") and, as advised
by its independent counsel, to file amended reports with the SEC
to reflect the Restatements, provided that the Restatements (i)
are not materially inconsistent with the information that
Frontier has been provided with prior to the date hereof
regarding such potential restatements and (ii) are in form
reasonably satisfactory to Frontier;

     SECTION 3.8    Absence of Certain Changes or Events.  Since
December 31, 1994, except as set forth on Schedule 3 attached
hereto and made a part hereof or contemplated by this Agreement
or disclosed in the SEC Reports filed since that date and up to
the date of this Agreement, WCT and each of its subsidiaries has
conducted its businesses only in the ordinary course and in a
manner consistent with past practice and, since such date, there
has not been (i) any condition, event or occurrence which,
individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would reasonably be
expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect or prevent or delay
WCT from performing its obligations under this Agreement, (ii)
any change by WCT in its accounting methods, principles or
practices, (iii) any revaluation by WCT of any of its material
assets, including but not limited to writing down the value of
inventory or writing off notes or accounts receivable other than
in the ordinary course of business, (iv) any entry by WCT or any
of its subsidiaries into any commitment or transactions material
to WCT or to any one of its Significant Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole as to any one of WCT or any one of its Significant
Subsidiaries, (v) any declaration, setting aside or payment of
any dividends or distributions in respect of the Shares or any


redemption, purchase or other acquisition of any of its
securities, or (vi) any increase in or establishment of any
bonus, insurance, severance, deferred compensation, pension,
retirement, profit sharing, stock option (including, without
limitation, the granting of stock options, stock appreciation
rights, performance awards, or restricted stock awards), stock
purchase or other employee benefit plan or agreement or
arrangement, or any other increase in the compensation payable or
to become payable to any officers or employees compensated in
excess of $100,000 per year of WCT or any of its subsidiaries,
except in the ordinary course of business and consistent with
past practice.

     SECTION 3.9    Absence of Litigation.   Except as disclosed
on Schedule 3 attached hereto and made a part hereof or with
reasonable specificity in the SEC Reports filed prior to the date
of this Agreement, there is no suit, claim, action, proceeding or
investigation pending or, to the knowledge of WCT, threatened, in
writing, against WCT or any of its subsidiaries, or any
properties or rights of WCT or any of its subsidiaries, before
any court, arbitrator or administrative, governmental or
regulatory authority or body, domestic or foreign in which the
amount in controversy exceeds $50,000 or seeks materially to
delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby.  As of the date hereof, neither WCT nor any
of its subsidiaries nor any of their respective properties is or
are subject to any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree,
determination or award of any court or any federal, state,
municipal or other governmental department, commission, board,
agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign.

     SECTION 3.10   Employee Benefits; Labor.   (a)  WCT
maintains no employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements,
whether or not subject to ERISA (other than welfare plans (within
the meaning of Section 3(l) of ERISA)) and the WCT Nonqualified
Stock Option Plan and the WCT Incentive Stock Option Plan
(collectively the "Option Plans").  None of the Plans promises or
provides retiree medical or life insurance benefits.  Each Plan
has been operated in all respects in accordance with its terms


and the requirements of applicable law, except to the extent that
such violation would not have a Material Adverse Effect.  All
insurance premiums to the extent then due and payable with
respect to the Plans as of the Effective Time have been paid or
will be paid prior thereto and adequate reserves have been
provided for on WCT's balance sheet for any premiums attributable
to service on or prior to the Effective Time.  No Plan (other
than the Option Plans) contains a provision which could result in
the payment to any employee of any money, property or other
rights (or which could accelerate or provide money, property or
other rights) because of the execution of this Agreement or the
consummation of the Merger.  No event or condition exists which
could result in any liability to WCT under Sections 4069 or
4212(c) of ERISA or as a result of any employee benefit plan
(within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA) sponsored by any
member of its Control Group, which liability would have a
Material Adverse Effect.
     (b)  None of WCT or any of its subsidiaries is a party to
any collective bargaining agreement nor is any such contract
being negotiated with WCT or any of its subsidiaries.  There is
no unfair labor practice charge or, to the knowledge of WCT, 
unfair labor practice complaint pending or threatened, with
regard to any employees of WCT or its subsidiaries.  There is no
labor strike, slowdown, work stoppage, or lockout in effect,
threatened against or otherwise affecting WCT or its subsidiaries
and WCT has not experienced any such labor controversy.  No
representation question exists or has been raised respecting
employees of WCT or its subsidiaries, nor to the knowledge of WCT
are there any campaigns being conducted to solicit cards from the
employees of WCT or any subsidiary to authorize representation by
any labor organization.  None of WCT or any of its subsidiaries
is party to, or otherwise bound by, any consent decree with, or,
to the knowledge of WCT,  citation by, any governmental authority
relating to any of their employees or employment practices.

     SECTION 3.11   Tax Matters.   WCT and each of its
subsidiaries, and any consolidated, combined, unitary or
aggregate group for Tax purposes of which WCT or any of its
subsidiaries is or has been a member has timely filed all Tax


Returns required to be filed by it, has paid all Taxes shown
thereon to be due and has provided adequate reserves in
accordance with GAAP in its financial statements for any Taxes
that have not been paid, and as to which no returns are yet due. 
None of WCT or any of its subsidiaries is currently being audited
or has received any notice of an impending audit with respect to
Taxes or Tax Returns.  As used herein, "Taxes" shall mean any
taxes of any kind, including but not limited to those on or
measured by or referred to as income, gross receipts, sales, use,
ad valorem, franchise, profits, license, withholding, payroll,
employment, excise, severance, stamp, occupation, premium, value
added, property or windfall profits taxes, customs, duties or
similar fees, assessments or charges of any kind whatsoever,
together with any interest and any penalties, additions to tax or
additional amounts imposed by any governmental authority,
domestic or foreign.  As used herein, "Tax Return" shall mean any
return, report or statement required to be filed with any
governmental authority with respect to Taxes.

     SECTION 3.12   Environmental Matters.  Except to the extent
that the inaccuracy of any of the following (or the circumstances
giving rise to such inaccuracy), individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect (after taking into account any reserves therefor
reflected in the most recent financial statements included in the
SEC Reports filed prior to the date hereof):  
     (a)  WCT and its subsidiaries hold, and are in compliance
with, all Environmental Permits, and WCT and its subsidiaries are
in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws;
     (b)  None of WCT or its subsidiaries has received, nor to
the knowledge of WCT is there threatened, any Environmental
Claim, nor are there any circumstances, conditions or events that
would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Environmental
Claim against WCT or any of its subsidiaries;
     (c)  None of WCT or its subsidiaries has entered into or
agreed to any consent decree or order under any Environmental
Law, and none of WCT or its subsidiaries is the subject of any
pending or, to the knowledge of WCT, threatened judgment, decree,
order or other requirement of any governmental authority or


private party relating to compliance with any Environmental Law
or to investigation, cleanup, remediation or removal of regulated
substances under any Environmental Law;
     (d)  There are no (i) underground storage tanks, (ii)
polychlorinated biphenyls, (iii) asbestos or asbestos-containing
materials or (iv) Hazardous Materials present at any facility
currently owned, leased or operated by WCT or any of its
subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to give rise to
liability of WCT or any of its subsidiaries under any
Environmental Laws or otherwise result in any cost or expense to
WCT or any of its subsidiaries; and
     (e)  There are no past (including, without limitation, with
respect to assets or businesses formerly owned, leased or
operated by WCT or any of its subsidiaries) or present actions,
activities, events, conditions or circumstances, including
without limitation the release, threatened release, emission,
discharge, generation, treatment, storage or disposal of
Hazardous Materials by WCT or any of its subsidiaries, that would
reasonably be expected to give rise to liability of WCT or any of
its subsidiaries under any Environmental Laws or any contract or
agreement relating to Environmental Claims.
          For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms
shall have the following meanings:
          "Environmental Claim" means any written or oral notice,
     claim, demand, action, suit, complaint, proceeding or other
     communication by any person alleging liability or potential
     liability (including without limitation liability or
     potential liability for emergency actions, investigatory
     costs, cleanup costs, governmental response costs, natural
     resource damages, property damage, personal injury, fines or
     penalties) arising out of, relating to, based on or
     resulting from (i) the presence, discharge, emission,
     release or threatened release of any Hazardous Materials at
     any location, whether or not owned, leased or operated by

          "Hazardous Materials" means all hazardous or toxic
     substances, wastes, materials or chemicals, petroleum
     (including crude oil or any fraction thereof) and petroleum
     products, asbestos and asbestos-containing materials,
     pollutants, contaminants and all other materials and
     substances regulated pursuant to any Environmental Law.

     SECTION 3.13   Intellectual Property.   None of WCT or any

statement to be sent to the shareholders of WCT in connection
with the Shareholders Meeting (as defined in Section 6.1) or the
information statement to be sent to such shareholders, as
appropriate (such proxy statement or information statement, as
amended or supplemented, is herein referred to as the "Proxy
Statement"), shall, at the date the Proxy Statement (or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto) is first mailed to
shareholders, at the time of the Shareholders Meeting or at the
Effective Time, contain any statement which, at such time and in
light of the circumstances under which it shall be made, is false
or misleading with respect to any material fact, or shall omit to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they are made, not
misleading or necessary to correct any statement in any earlier
communication with respect to the solicitation of proxies for the
Shareholders Meeting which has become false or misleading. 
notwithstanding the foregoing, WCT makes no representation or


warranty with respect to any information supplied by Frontier or
Sub or any of their respective representatives which is contained
in the Proxy Statement.  The Proxy Statement will comply in all
material respects as to form with the requirements of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.  If at any

amend or supplement the Proxy Statement to reflect such fact, and
provide Frontier a copy of such amendment or supplement.

banker (other than the Financial Adviser) is entitled to any
brokerage, finder's or other fee or commission in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon

furnished to Frontier a complete and correct copy of all
agreements between WCT and the Financial Adviser pursuant to
which such firm would be entitled to any payment relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby.

bill duration of a call greater than time point 1 to time point
7.  Rounding practices employed by WCT and its subsidiaries are
substantially consistent with industry practices.

authority to own, operate or lease its properties and to carry on
its business as it is now being conducted, except where the

individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to cause
a Prevention Effect.
     (b)  Sub is a corporation duly organized, validly existing

a material benefit under, or give rise to any right of
termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or
result in the creation of a lien or encumbrance on any of the
property or assets of Frontier or Sub pursuant to, any note,
bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license,
permit, franchise or other instrument or obligation to which
Frontier or Sub is a party or by which Frontier or Sub or any of
their respective properties are bound or affected, except, in the
case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for any such conflicts,
violations, breaches, defaults or other occurrences which would
not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
cause a Prevention Effect.
     (b)  The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by Frontier and Sub do not and will not require any
consent, approval, authorization or permit of, action by, filing
with or notification to, any governmental or regulatory
authority, domestic or foreign, except for (i) applicable
requirements, if any, of the laws referred to in clause (i) of
the exception to Section 3.5(b)(i); (ii) the filing and
recordation of appropriate merger or other documents as required


by Washington Law and Delaware Law; and (iii) such consents,

the date the Proxy Statement is first mailed to shareholders, at
the time of the Shareholders Meeting (as defined in Section 6.1)
or at the Effective Time, contain any statement which, at such
time and in light of the circumstances under which it shall be
made, is false or misleading with respect to any material fact,

therein or necessary in order to make the statements made
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made,
not false or misleading or necessary to correct any statement in
any earlier communication with respect to the solicitation of
proxies for the Shareholders Meeting which has become false or
misleading.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Frontier and Sub make
no representation or warranty with respect to any information
supplied by WCT or any of its representatives which is contained
in any of the foregoing documents.  

     SECTION 4.5    Absence of Litigation.   There is no suit,
claim, action, proceeding or investigation pending or to the
knowledge of Frontier or Sub, threatened, in writing, against
Frontier or Sub which could cause a Prevention Effect.

     SECTION 4.6    Brokers.   No broker, finder or investment

ARTICLE VI   -   ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS
- --------------------------------------
     SECTION 6.1    Shareholders Meeting.   WCT, acting through
its Board of Directors, shall (i) duly call, give notice of,
convene and hold a special meeting of its shareholders as soon as
practicable for the purpose of considering and taking action on
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (the
"Shareholders Meeting") and (ii) subject to its fiduciary duties
under applicable law, exercised after consultation with
independent legal counsel, (A) include in the Proxy Statement the
unanimous recommendation of the Board of Directors that the
shareholders of WCT vote in favor of the approval of this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and the
written opinion of the Financial Adviser that the Merger
Consideration to be received by the shareholders of WCT is fair
to such shareholders and (B) use its reasonable best efforts to
obtain the necessary approval of this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby by its shareholders.

     SECTION 6.2    Proxy Statement.   WCT shall use its
reasonable best efforts to have cleared by the SEC the Proxy
Statement with respect to the Shareholders Meeting.  Frontier,
Sub and WCT will cooperate with each other in the preparation of
the Proxy Statement; without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, each of Frontier and Sub will furnish to WCT the
information relating to it required by the Exchange Act to be set
forth in the Proxy Statement.  WCT agrees to use its reasonable
best efforts, after consultation with the other parties hereto,
to respond promptly to any comments made by the SEC with respect
to the Proxy Statement and any preliminary version thereof filed
by it and cause such Proxy Statement to be mailed to WCT's
shareholders at the earliest practicable time.

     SECTION 6.3    Access to Information; Confidentiality.   (a) 
From the date hereof to the Effective Time, WCT shall, and shall
cause its subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, auditors


and other agents to, afford the officers, employees, auditors and
other agents of Frontier, and financing sources who shall agree
to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.3 as though a
party hereto, complete access at all reasonable times to its
officers, employees, agents, properties, offices, plants and
other facilities and to all books and records, and shall furnish
Frontier and such financing sources with all financial, operating
and other data and information as Frontier, through its officers,
employees or agents, or such financing sources may from time to
time request.  In accordance with this Section 6.3(a), WCT shall
provide, at WCT's expense upon Frontier's request, suitable
office space in WCT's offices and administrative support for no
more than four employees or agents of Frontier to observe the
operation and management of WCT and its subsidiaries (the
"Observers").  The Observers shall have no authority to direct or
control the actions or decisions of WCT or its employees, nor to
bind Frontier to any waiver, consent or approval permitted or
required under this Agreement.  Nonetheless, WCT shall provide
copies to the Observers of each material contract, purchase
order, letter, memorandum and any other material document
relating to the business of WCT and addressed to any person
except to the extent that any such document contains information
subject to attorney-client or other similar privilege.  WCT shall
review with the Observers each and every accounting entry in
excess of $10,000 to be made on the books of WCT.  Within five
business days of the presentation to the Observers of WCT's
proposed accounting treatment, the Observers shall inform WCT of
their recommended accounting treatment for each such entry, which
shall be consistent with GAAP.  WCT is not obligated to adopt any
such accounting treatment, but such treatment shall form the
basis upon which Frontier shall evaluate WCT's compliance with
the various financial covenants and conditions to Closing
contained in this Agreement.  
     (b)  Each of Frontier and Sub will hold and will cause its
officers, employees, auditors and other agents to hold in
confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or
administrative process or by other requirements of law, all
documents and information concerning WCT and its subsidiaries
furnished to Frontier or Sub in connection with the transactions
contemplated in this Agreement (except to the extent that such


information can be shown to have been (i) previously known by
Frontier or Sub from sources other than WCT, or its directors,
officers, auditors or other agents, (ii) in the public domain
through no fault of Frontier or Sub or (iii) later lawfully
acquired by Frontier or Sub on a non-confidential basis from
other sources who are not known by Frontier or Sub to be bound by
a confidentiality agreement (after inquiry of such sources) or
otherwise prohibited from transmitting the information to
Frontier or Sub by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation)
and will not release or disclose such information to any other
person, except its auditors and other advisors in connection with
this Agreement who need to know such information.  If the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated,
such confidence shall be maintained for a period of three years
from the date hereof and, if requested by or on behalf of WCT,
Frontier and Sub will, and will use all reasonable efforts to
cause their auditors and other agents to, return to WCT or
destroy all copies of written information furnished by WCT to
Frontier and Sub or their agents, representatives or advisors. 
It is understood that Frontier and Sub shall be deemed to have
satisfied their obligation to hold such information confidential
if they exercise the same care as they take to preserve
confidentiality for their own similar information.
     (c)  No investigation pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall
affect any representations or warranties of the parties herein or
the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereto.

     SECTION 6.4    No Solicitation of Transactions.   WCT, its
affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees,
representatives and agents shall immediately cease any existing
discussions or negotiations, if any, with any parties conducted
heretofore with respect to any acquisition or exchange of all or
any material portion of the assets of, or any equity interest in,
WCT or any of its subsidiaries or any business combination with
WCT or any of its subsidiaries.  WCT may, directly or indirectly,
furnish information and access, in each case only in response to
a request for such information or access to any person made after
the date hereof which was not encouraged, solicited or initiated
by WCT or any of its affiliates or any of its or their respective
officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents after


the date hereof, pursuant to appropriate confidentiality
agreements, and may participate in discussions and negotiate with
such entity or group concerning any merger, sale of assets, sale
of shares of capital stock or similar transaction (including an
exchange of stock or assets) involving WCT or any subsidiary or
division of WCT, if such entity or group has submitted a written
proposal to the Board relating to any such transaction and
failing to take such action would constitute a breach of the
Board's fiduciary duty under applicable law.  The Board shall
provide a copy of any such written proposal to Frontier
immediately after receipt thereof.   WCT shall keep Frontier
promptly advised of all developments which could reasonably be
expected to culminate in the Board of Directors withdrawing,
modifying or amending its recommendation of the Merger and the
other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Except as set
forth in this Section 6.4, neither WCT or any of its affiliates,
nor any of its or their respective officers, directors,
employees, representatives or agents, shall, directly or
indirectly, encourage, solicit, participate in or initiate
discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to,
any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group
(other than Frontier and Sub, any affiliate or associate of
Frontier and Sub or any designees of Frontier or Sub) concerning
any merger, sale of assets, sale of shares of capital stock or
similar transactions (including an exchange of stock or assets)
involving WCT or any subsidiary or division of WCT; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section 6.4 shall prevent the Board
from taking, and disclosing to WCT's shareholders, a position
contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2 promulgated under the
Exchange Act with regard to any tender offer; provided, further,
that the Board shall not recommend that the shareholders of WCT
tender their Shares in connection with any such tender offer
unless failing to take such action would constitute a breach of
the Board's fiduciary duty under applicable law.  WCT agrees not
to release any third party from, or waive any provisions of, any
confidentiality or standstill agreement to which WCT is a party,
unless failing to release such third party or waive such
provisions would constitute a breach of the Board's fiduciary
duty under applicable law.



     SECTION 6.5    Employee Matters.    Frontier shall cause WCT
and the Surviving Corporation to promptly pay or provide when due
all compensation and benefits earned through or prior to the
Effective Time as provided pursuant to the terms of any
compensation arrangements, employment agreements and employee or
director benefit plans, programs and policies in existence as of
the date hereof for all employees (and former employees) and
directors (and former directors) of WCT.  Frontier and WCT agree
that WCT and the Surviving Corporation shall pay promptly or
provide when due all compensation and benefits required to be
paid pursuant to the terms of any individual agreement with any
employee, former employee, director or former director in effect
and disclosed to Frontier as of the date hereof.  Nothing in this
Agreement shall require the continued employment of any person or
prevent WCT and/or the Surviving Corporation from taking any
action or refraining from taking any action which WCT could take
or refrain from taking prior to the Effective Time.
     
     SECTION 6.6     Further Action; Reasonable Best Efforts.  
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, each of the
parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts: to take, or
cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and to do or cause to
be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under
applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including but
not limited to (i) cooperation in the preparation and filing of
the Proxy Statement, any required filings under the HSR Act and
other laws described in clause (i) of each of Sections 3.5(b) and
4.3(b) (including, without limitation, any required filings with
any state agencies regulating the operations of WCT and its
subsidiaries), and any amendments to any thereof and (ii) using
its reasonable best efforts to make all required regulatory
filings and applications and to obtain all licenses, permits,
consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders of
governmental authorities and parties to contracts with WCT and
its subsidiaries as are necessary for the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to fulfill the
conditions to the Merger.  In case at any time after the
Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to
carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the proper officers and


directors of each party to this Agreement shall use their
reasonable best efforts to take all such necessary action.

     SECTION 6.7    Public Announcements.   Frontier and WCT
shall mutually agree on the form and content of any public
announcement which shall be made concerning this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby and neither Frontier nor WCT
shall make any such public announcement without the consent of
the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed, provided that nothing herein shall prohibit Frontier or
WCT from making any public announcement or other disclosure
required by law or the policy of any exchange on which such
party's securities are listed, provided that such announcement or
disclosure shall be previously approved by the other party, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless
any law, rule or regulation makes obtaining such prior approval
impracticable.

     SECTION 6.8    Disposition of Litigation.   WCT agrees that
it will not settle any litigation currently pending, or commenced
after the date hereof, against WCT or any of its directors by any
shareholder of WCT relating to this Agreement, without the prior
written consent of Frontier.

     SECTION 6.9    State Takeover Laws.   WCT shall, at the
request of Frontier, take all necessary steps to assist in any
challenge by Frontier to the validity or applicability to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger
and the Shareholder's Agreements or any other agreements entered
into contemporaneously with this Agreement or subsequent thereto
in connection with such transactions, of any state takeover law.

     SECTION 6.10   Directors' and Officers' Indemnification and
Insurance.  
     (a)  The By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain
provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification than
are set forth in Article IX of the By-laws of WCT, which
provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified
for a period of five years from the Effective Time in any manner
that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals


who at the Effective Time were directors, officers, agents or
employees of WCT or otherwise entitled to indemnification
pursuant to Article IX  of WCT's By-Laws.
     (b)  Frontier shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause
to be maintained in effect for three years from the Effective
Time the current policies of the directors' and officers'
liability insurance maintained by WCT (provided that Frontier may
substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage
containing terms and conditions which are not materially less
advantageous) with respect to matters occurring prior to the
Effective Time to the extent available; provided, however, that
in no event shall Frontier or WCT be required to expend more than
an amount per year equal to 150% of current annual premiums paid
by WCT.  Subject to the foregoing, from and after the Closing,
the Surviving Corporation will maintain all rights to
indemnification (including rights with respect to the advancement
of expenses incurred in defense of any action or suit) and
exculpation existing on the date of this Agreement in favor of
current or former directors, officers and employees of WCT (the
"Indemnified Parties") as provided in WCT's Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws or in indemnification agreements in
existence as of the date of this Agreement.  The Surviving
Corporation shall not take any action with a purpose to hinder,
delay or make more difficult the exercise of such rights of
indemnification or exculpation or the ability of the Surviving
Corporation to provide such indemnification.  This Section 6.10
is intended to be for the benefit of and to grant third party
rights to the Indemnified Parties whether or not they are parties
to this Agreement and each of the Indemnified Parties shall be
entitled to enforce the covenants contained in this Section 6.10.

     SECTION 6.11   Applications to the FCC and Other Regulatory
Agencies.   Frontier, Sub, WCT and its subsidiaries shall join in
applications to those state telecommunications or utility
regulatory authorities ("PUCs) having jurisdiction over the
change of control of WCT and its subsidiaries and the Federal
Communications Commission (the "FCC") (the FCC and the PUCs
being, together, the "Regulators"), requesting their approval and
authorization of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 


Thereafter Frontier, Sub and WCT shall cooperate with each other
and shall take such actions as are reasonable, necessary and
proper to obtain expeditious, favorable action by the Regulators.

     SECTION 6.12   HSR Act.   The parties shall cooperate with
each other and take such actions as are reasonable, necessary and
proper to respond to any requests for additional information in
connection with the filing with the Federal Trade Commission and
the United States Department of Justice, Antitrust Division, such
applications, forms and supporting documents as are required
pursuant to the HSR Act.
     
     SECTION 6.13   Commitments from Wholesalers.   WCT shall use
its reasonable best efforts to obtain from its largest wholesale
customers written commitments to long term contracts with
specified minimum purchase requirements or "take or pay" clauses.

     SECTION 6.14   Termination Notice.   Frontier hereby agrees
to waive any remedies regarding WCT's breach of any covenant or
failure to meet any condition under the Original Merger
Agreement, including, but not limited to, its right to any
termination fee under Section 8.3 of the Original Merger
Agreement pursuant to the termination notice dated as of February
20, 1995, delivered by Frontier to WCT; provided, however, that
this waiver shall be deemed null and void and without any force
or effect if the conditions contained in Section 7.2.11 and
Section 7.3.4 of this Agreement shall not be satisfied or waived.

               receivable during the months of October through
               December, 1994, inclusive.  Frontier shall have

               of any circumstance that might cause the
               conditions contained in this Section 7.2.8 to be
               untrue.  The "Measurement Period" shall be (i) the

                          SHAREHOLDER'S AGREEMENT

     SHAREHOLDER'S AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of
February 21, 1995, by and between FRONTIER CORPORATION, a company
organized under the laws of the State of New York ("Frontier"),
and RICHARD FROCKT, a resident of Las Vegas, Nevada ("Seller")
and is intended to supercede in its entirety the Shareholder's
Agreement dated as of November 8, 1994, previously entered into
between the parties hereto.

                                 RECITALS

     Concurrently herewith, Frontier, Rochester Subsidiary
Twenty-Eight, Inc. ("Sub"), a Delaware corporation and a
subsidiary of Frontier, and WCT Communications, Inc. ("WCT"), a
Washington corporation, are entering into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger of even date herewith (the "Merger Agreement";
capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement), which provides, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, for the merger
of Sub with and into WCT.

     As of the date hereof, Seller owns (either beneficially or
of record) 3,522,759 shares of WCT Common Stock (such shares of
Common Stock and any shares of WCT Common Stock now owned or
acquired after the date hereof and prior to the termination
hereof, whether upon exercise of options, warrants or other
convertible securities or otherwise, collectively, referred to
herein as the "Shares").

     As a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger
Agreement, Frontier and Sub have required that Seller agree, and
Seller has agreed, to grant a proxy to vote all Shares owned by
Seller on the terms and conditions provided for herein and
thereafter to sell to Sub all the Shares as further provided
herein and to deposit into escrow a portion of the proceeds of
the sale of the Shares as further provided herein.

                                 AGREEMENT

          To implement the foregoing and in consideration of the
mutual agreements contained herein, the parties agree as follows:


     1.   Agreement to Vote; Proxy.
          1.1  Voting.   Seller, solely in his capacity as a
shareholder of WCT,  hereby agrees that, during the time this
Agreement is in effect, at any meeting of the stockholders of
WCT, however called, Seller shall vote (or cause to be voted) the
Shares (a) in favor of the Merger; (b) against any action or
agreement that would result in a breach in any respect of any
covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or
agreement of WCT under the Merger Agreement; and (c) against any
action or agreement (other than the Merger Agreement or the
transactions contemplated thereby) that would impede, interfere
with, delay, postpone or attempt to discourage the Merger,
including, but not limited to: (i) any extraordinary corporate
transaction, such as a merger, consolidation or other business
combination involving WCT or of any of its subsidiaries; (ii) a
sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of WCT or of any
of its subsidiaries or a reorganization, recapitalization or
liquidation of WCT or of any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any
change in the management or board of directors of WCT, except as
otherwise agreed to in writing by Sub; (iv) any change in the
present capitalization or dividend policy of WCT; or (v) any
other change in WCT's corporate structure or business. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this section shall not be deemed
to limit Seller's fiduciary obligations as a director of WCT.

          1.2  Proxy.   Seller hereby grants to Frontier a proxy
to vote the Shares as indicated in Section 1.1 above.  Seller
intends this proxy to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest
and will take such further action or execute such other
instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this
proxy and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by him with
respect to the Shares.

     2.   Sale of Shares.
          2.1  Terms of Sale.   Subject to the terms and
conditions provided in this Agreement, Seller agrees to sell to
Sub all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to the
Shares, free and clear of all claims, liens, including
inheritance or estate tax liens, pledges, options and other
encumbrances (except in favor of Frontier and any of its


affiliates) (collectively, the "Liens") in consideration of the
payment to Seller by Sub of the sum of $3.75 U.S. per Share in
cash for each Share so sold (the "Purchase Price").  Subject to
Section 2.5 hereof, settlement of such sale (the "Sale") shall be
made at a closing (the "Closing") to be held immediately prior to
the consummation of the Merger (the "Closing Date") at Frontier's
offices or at such other time and place as shall be mutually
agreed upon by the parties.

          2.2  Conditions to Each Party's Obligations to

waiver prior to the Closing Date of the following conditions:

     Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, shall have expired or
     been terminated.
          (b)  No Injunction.   On the Closing Date, there shall
     not be any injunction, restraining order or decree of any
     nature of any court or governmental agency or body in effect
     that restrains or prohibits the consummation of the Sale.
          (c)  Merger Agreement.   All of the conditions
     contained in Article VII (other than Section 7.2.5) of the
     Merger Agreement shall have been waived or satisfied, and

     accordance with its terms.

     material respects, in each case as of the date when made and

     earlier date) as of the Closing Date as though made on and
     as of the Closing Date.
          (b)  Covenants.   Seller shall have performed in all
     material respects all obligations required to be performed

     any.
          (d)  Escrow Agreement.   Seller shall have executed and
     delivered to Frontier an escrow agreement among Seller,
     Frontier and an escrow agent of Frontier's choice (which
     shall be the same entity as the Paying Agent chosen by
     Frontier under the Merger Agreement)(the "Escrow Agent") in
     substantially the form attached hereto and made a part
     hereof as Exhibit 1(the "Escrow Agreement").

          2.4  Conditions to Obligations of Seller.   The

     behalf of WCT) from and after the Effective Time, for
     outside counsel fees, expert and witness fees,
     disbursements, costs and other expenses (such expenses,
     fees, disbursements and costs being known herein as the
     "Legal Expenses") in connection with the Class Action Suit
     to the extent that the total of the Resolution Payment and
     the Legal Expenses exceeds $4,000,000, provided, however, if
     Seller rejects any settlement proposal made by the
     plaintiffs in connection with the Class Action Suit, which
     proposal Frontier had recommended in good faith that Seller
     accept, Seller's indemnification hereunder shall extend to
     all of the Legal Expenses incurred in connection with the


     Class Action Suit from and after the Effective Time; (iii)
     any awards, judgments, settlements, damages or losses (to
     the extent not paid or payable by insurance companies or by
     other parties to or on behalf of WCT) (other than Legal
     Expenses) arising from, by reason of, or in connection with,
     any action, claim or proceeding against any Indemnified
     Party made within one year from the Effective Time related
     to the disclosure or failure to disclose prior to the
     Effective Time (A) any information required to be disclosed
     by WCT pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
     amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated
     thereunder or (B) to the extent not covered in clause (A),
     any information regarding the financial condition of WCT, in
     each case whether disclosed in SEC Reports (as defined in
     the Merger Agreement) or otherwise (the "Potential Suits",
     and the Potential Suits and the Class Action Suit being
     together known herein as the "Shareholders' Suits"); (iv)
     one half of the Legal Expenses (to the extent not paid or
     payable by insurance companies or by other parties to or on
     behalf of WCT) incurred by WCT in connection with the
     Potential Suits from and after the Effective Time; (v) the
     amount by which the Funded Debt (as defined in the Merger
     Agreement) on the balance sheet of WCT at the Effective Time
     exceeds the sum of $44,000,000; and (vi) the amount of any
     liability of WCT as of the Effective Time (A) whether or not
     such liability was required to be disclosed on the financial
     statements of WCT, and (B) net of the tax benefits to WCT
     associated with such liability reportable on Tax Returns
     filed within 12 months of the Effective Time or, if filed
     later, for a period ending during such 12 month period, and
     (C) in excess of $125,000, in the aggregate, which liability
     (I) has not been disclosed in the SEC Reports filed by WCT
     prior to the Effective Time, or (II) the incurrence of which
     was not expressly permitted by Section 5.1(e)(ii) of the
     Merger Agreement, or (III) was not incurred in the ordinary
     course of business, or (IV) should have been reflected on
     WCT's financial statements as of the Effective Time, which
     financial statements shall give effect to the adjustments
     and findings of Price Waterhouse, LLP in its review of WCT's
     financial statements as of December 31, 1994.  All of the


     amounts as to which Seller indemnifies the Indemnified
     Parties hereunder are known herein as "Losses" or,
     individually, a "Loss".  For the purposes of this Agreement,
     the term "Final Resolution" shall mean (A) the final
     determination of litigation, arbitration or other proceeding
     with respect to all of the Shareholders' Suits, which is not
     subject to further appeal or (B) the settlement of all of
     Shareholders' Suits which includes or has the legal effect
     of unconditional mutual releases by the parties therein of
     any and all claims they may have related to the issues in
     dispute in the Shareholders' Suits.  Amounts of any Losses
     shall be chargeable against the Escrow Fund, until it is
     exhausted, in the following order: Section 2.5(a)(v), then
     Section 2.5(a)(vi), then Section 2.5(a)(i), then Section
     2.5(a) (iii), then Section 2.5(a)(ii), and lastly Section
     2.5(a)(iv).
          (b)  Frontier shall give written notice to Seller and
     the Escrow Agent of any Loss with respect to which Frontier
     believes the Indemnified Parties are or may be entitled to
     indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.5 (a "Notice of
     Claim"); provided, however, that the failure of Frontier to
     give notice as provided in this Section 2.5(b) shall not
     relieve Seller of his obligation hereunder to indemnify and
     hold harmless the Indemnified Parties in accordance with and
     subject to the terms hereof unless and to the extent that
     Seller is actually and materially prejudiced in the defense
     or resolution of such Loss.  The Notice of Claim shall state
     the nature and basis of such Loss, the amount thereof to the
     extent known and the basis of Frontier's belief that the
     Indemnified Parties are or may be entitled to
     indemnification with respect thereto.  Each Notice of Claim
     shall be delivered in accordance with the terms and
     conditions of the Escrow Agreement.  Seller and Seller's
     agents shall be afforded access at reasonable times and upon
     reasonable prior notice to the books, records, files and
     personnel of Frontier and its affiliates as reasonably
     necessary to investigate and defend or resolve the Loss.
          (c)  If within 20 days from the date of receipt of a
     Notice of Claim by the Escrow Agent and Seller, Seller shall
     not have given notice to Frontier and the Escrow Agent that


     there is or may be a dispute relating in any way to such
     Notice of Claim or the matters set forth therein, or both,
     then the Escrow Agent, pursuant to the terms of the Escrow
     Agreement, shall pay or disburse the amount set forth in the
     Notice of Claim, out of the then remaining balance of the
     Escrow Fund, to Frontier or to the Indemnified Party
     identified in the Notice of Claim to receive such payment
     promptly after the expiration of such 20 day period and
     shall give notice of such payment or disbursement to Seller.
          (d)  If within 20 days from the date of receipt of a
     Notice of Claim by the Escrow Agent and Seller, Seller shall
     have given notice to Frontier and the Escrow Agent that
     there is or may be a dispute relating in any way to such
     Notice of Claim or the matters set forth therein, or both (a
     "Notice of Disputed Claim"), then payment shall be made by
     the Escrow Agent out of the then remaining balance of the
     Escrow Fund only to the extent of the undisputed amount,
     pending the resolution of such dispute in accordance with
     the provisions of this Section 2.5.  The amount in dispute
     as set forth in the Notice of Disputed Claim shall, after
     such Notice of Disputed Claim has been given, remain in and
     part of the Escrow Fund until such time as the Escrow Agent
     receives either (x) a joint statement from Seller and
     Frontier setting forth the resolution of such dispute and,
     if applicable, authorizing the payment or disbursement by
     the Escrow Agent to Frontier of such amount or any portion
     thereof that the parties shall have mutually agreed upon, or
     (y) a copy of an order or determination from an arbitrator
     or a court of competent jurisdiction setting forth the
     resolution of such dispute and, if applicable, directing the
     payment or disbursement by the Escrow Agent to Frontier of
     such amount or any portion thereof.  Upon receipt of such
     joint statement or order or determination, the Escrow Agent
     shall promptly pay, out of the then remaining balance of the
     Escrow Fund, the amount authorized or directed to be paid or
     disbursed as payment or disbursement to Seller or to
     Frontier, as applicable.
          (e)  Seller may control the defense of the Class Action
     Suit and any Potential Suit  through counsel acceptable to
     Seller so long as such counsel remains reasonably acceptable


     to Frontier, provided that (i) Seller shall keep Frontier
     advised of all developments therein and cooperate with
     Frontier in connection with such defense and shall, at
     Seller's expense, make available to Frontier all such
     records, materials and information in Seller's possession or
     under Seller's control relating thereto as is reasonably
     requested by Frontier, (ii) Frontier shall have the right to
     recommend in good faith that Seller accept a settlement
     offer in connection with any Shareholders' Suit  and (iii)
     subject to Seller's obligation to indemnify the Indemnified
     Parties against Legal Expenses in connection therewith as
     provided in this Agreement, Frontier shall have the right to
     assume the defense of any Shareholders' Suit with counsel of
     its own choosing (A) if Seller has abandoned or has failed
     to diligently pursue such defense or (B) upon exhaustion of
     the Escrow Fund.  Seller's right to control the defense of
     any Shareholders' Suit in accordance with this Section 2.5
     shall immediately cease if Seller rejects an offer made by
     the plaintiffs therein to settle, which offer Frontier, good
     faith, had recommended should be accepted.  Thereupon,
     Frontier shall assume the defense of any such Shareholders'
     Suit, subject to Seller's indemnifications under this
     Agreement. 
          (f)  To the extent Seller controls the defense of any
     Shareholders' Suit, Seller shall not, without the written
     consent of Frontier, which consent shall not be unreasonably
     withheld or delayed, (i) settle or compromise any of the
     Shareholders' Suits or consent to the entry of any judgment
     or court order which does not include as an unconditional
     term thereof a written release of the Indemnified Parties
     from all liability in respect of such Shareholders' Suits,
     (ii) settle or compromise the Shareholders' Suits in any
     manner that may adversely affect the Indemnified Parties
     (other than by virtue of the payment of any amount less than
     the Resolution Payment) or (iii) upon the issuance of an
     order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator
     with respect to such Shareholders' Suits, appeal or
     otherwise challenge such order.  
          (g)  Upon payment of any Loss hereunder by Seller, the
     Indemnified Parties shall assign to Seller all rights of


     such Indemnified Parties (to the extent of any such payment
     by Seller) against any applicable insurance company and
     against any party (other than an Indemnified Party) arising
     out of or related to such Loss.
          (h)  The indemnity rights set forth herein are the
     exclusive remedies of the Indemnified Parties against Seller
     for any claim arising out a breach of the Merger Agreement.

     3.   Expiration.   Except as provided in Section 2.5 and
Section 5.4, this Agreement shall terminate on the Expiration
Date.  As used herein, the term "Expiration Date" means the first
to occur of (a) the Effective Time, (b) termination of the Merger
Agreement in accordance with its terms (a "Termination"), and
(c) written notice of termination of this Agreement by Frontier
to Seller. 

     4.   Representation and Warranties.
          4.1  Representation and Warranties of Frontier and Sub. 
Frontier and Sub hereby represent and warrant to Seller as
follows:
          (a)  Due Authorization.   This Agreement and the
     consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall
     constitute a valid and binding agreement of each of Frontier
     and Sub, enforceable against Frontier and Sub in accordance
     with its terms, except that such enforceability (i) may be
     limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other
     similar laws affecting or relating to enforcement of
     creditors' rights generally and (ii) is subject to general
     principles of equity.  
          (b)  No Conflicts.   Except as provided in Sections 5.2
     and 5.3 of the Merger Agreement, (A) no filing with, and no
     permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any state,
     federal or foreign public body or authority is necessary for
     the execution of this Agreement by Frontier and Sub and the
     consummation by Frontier and Sub of the transactions
     contemplated hereby and (B) neither the execution and
     delivery of this Agreement by Frontier and Sub nor the
     consummation by Frontier and Sub of the transactions
     contemplated hereby nor compliance by Frontier and Sub with
     any of the provisions hereof shall (1) conflict with or


     result in any breach of any provision of the certificate of
     incorporation or by-laws (or similar documents) of Frontier
     or Sub, (2) result in a violation or breach of, or
     constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both)
     a default (or give rise to any third party right of
     termination, cancellation, material modification or
     acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or
     provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license,
     contract, agreement or other instrument or obligation to
     which Frontier or Sub is a party or by which it or any of
     its properties or assets may be bound or (3) violate any
     order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation
     applicable to Frontier or Sub or any of its properties or
     assets, except in the case of (2) or (3) for violations,
     breaches or defaults which would not in the aggregate
     materially impair the ability of Frontier or Sub to perform
     its obligations hereunder.
          (c)  Good Standing.   Frontier and Sub are corporations
     duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
     the laws of the State of New York and Delaware,
     respectively, and have all requisite corporate power to
     execute and deliver this Agreement.

     4.2  Representations and Warranties of Seller.   Seller
hereby represents and warrants to Frontier and Sub as follows:
          (a)  Ownership of Shares.   On the date hereof, the
     Shares constitute all of the shares of WCT Common Stock
     owned of record or beneficially by Seller.  Seller has sole
     voting power and sole power of disposition with respect to
     all of the Shares, with no restrictions, subject to
     applicable federal securities laws and the terms of this
     Agreement, on Seller's rights pertaining thereto.  In
     addition, on the date hereof, Seller owns (either
     beneficially or of record)  no options  or warrants to
     acquire Shares.
          (b)  Power; Binding Agreement.   Seller has the legal
     capacity, power and authority to enter into and perform all
     of his obligations under this Agreement.  The execution,
     delivery and performance of this Agreement by Seller will
     not violate any other agreement to which Seller is a party


     including, without limitation, any voting agreement,
     stockholders agreement or voting trust.  This Agreement has
     been duly and validly executed and delivered by Seller and
     constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Seller,
     enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms,
     except that such enforceability (i) may be limited by
     bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws
     affecting or relating to enforcement of creditors' rights
     generally and (ii) is subject to general principles of
     equity.  
          (c)  No Conflicts.  To the best knowledge of Seller,
     except as provided in Section 3.5 of the Merger Agreement,
     (A) no filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent or
     approval of, any state, federal or foreign public body or
     authority is necessary for the execution of this Agreement
     by Seller and the consummation by Seller of the transactions
     contemplated hereby and (B) neither the execution and
     delivery of this Agreement by Seller nor the consummation by
     Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby nor
     compliance by Seller with any of the provisions hereof shall
     (y) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with
     or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or
     give rise to any third party right of termination,
     cancellation, material modification or acceleration) under
     any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note,
     bond, mortgage, indenture, license, contract, agreement or
     other instrument or obligation to which Seller is a party or
     by which he or any of his properties or assets may be bound
     or (z) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute,
     rule or regulation applicable to Seller or any of his
     properties or assets, except in the case of (y) or (z) for
     violations, breaches or defaults which would not in the
     aggregate materially impair the ability of Seller to perform
     his obligations hereunder.
          (d)  Certain Understanding.  Seller understands and
     acknowledges that Frontier is entering into, and causing Sub
     to enter into, the Merger Agreement in reliance upon
     Seller's execution and delivery of this Agreement.



     5.   Certain Covenants of Seller.   Except in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, Seller hereby covenants and
agrees as follows:

          5.1  No Solicitation.  Seller, solely in his capacity
as a shareholder of WCT, shall not, directly or indirectly,
solicit (including by way of furnishing information) any
inquiries or the making of any proposal by any person or entity
(other than Frontier or any affiliate of Frontier) which
constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any sale
of the Shares, provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to
limit Seller's fiduciary obligations as a director of WCT.  If
Seller receives an inquiry or proposal with respect to the sale
of Shares, then Seller shall promptly inform Frontier of the
terms and conditions, if any, of such inquiry or proposal and the
identity of the person making it.  Seller will immediately cease
and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions
or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with
respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that this
paragraph shall not be construed to require Seller to notify any
such parties of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.

          5.2  Restriction on Transfer, Proxies and Non-
Interference.   Other than in favor of Frontier or any of its
affiliates, Seller hereby agrees, while this Agreement is in
effect, and except as contemplated hereby, not to (i) sell,
transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or
enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or
understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge,
encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any of the
Shares or (ii) grant any proxies, deposit any Shares into a
voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any
Shares or (iii) take any action that would make any
representation or warranty of Seller contained herein untrue or
incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling Seller
from performing his obligations under this Agreement.

          5.3  Additional Shares.   Seller hereby agrees, while
this Agreement is in effect, to promptly notify Frontier of the
number of any Shares acquired, or options to acquire Shares, by


Seller, if any, after the date hereof.

          5.4  Further Agreements.   
          (a)  Fee.   Notwithstanding Seller's compliance with
the terms of the Agreement, if, at any time after the date hereof
and prior to or within nine months after a Termination, (i) any
Shares are sold, exchanged or converted in connection with a
Third Party Acquisition (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or
(ii) WCT enters into definitive agreements with respect to a
Third Party Acquisition with any person which contemplates the
sale, exchange or conversion of Shares, then Seller shall pay to
Frontier, within five days following the consummation of any such
sale, exchange or conversion, an amount, in cash, with respect to
any such Share equal to the quotient of (x) (A) the value of the
consideration received by Seller for such Share in connection
with such Third Party Acquisition less (B) $5.875 divided by (y)
two, to the extent such quotient exceeds $0.  If any portion of
such consideration shall consist of other than cash, such
consideration shall be valued based on its fair market value. 
For purposes hereof, the fair market value of a publicly traded
security shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices
of such security on the principal exchange or market on which
such security is traded during the five trading days immediately
preceding the date of valuation or, if any security to be issued
in respect of the Shares is not then a publicly traded security,
the fair market value shall be deemed to be the fair market
value, determined as set forth above, of the Shares during such
trading period.  In the event the parties are unable to agree on
a valuation, the parties shall jointly select a nationally
recognized investment banking firm to value such consideration,
and the decision of such firm shall be binding upon the parties. 
The parties agree to share equally the expenses of such firm.
          (b)  Proxy Extension.   Notwithstanding Seller's
compliance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event of a
Termination, then in such event, the grant to Frontier of
Seller's proxy to vote the Shares as provided in Section 1 of
this Agreement shall be extended as to 1,820,535 of the Shares
(the "Proxy Shares") for a period commencing on the date of the
Termination and ending six months after the date of the
Termination.  The Proxy Shares may be voted in Frontier's sole


discretion and shall not be subject to the limitations contained
in Section 1 hereof.

     6.   Further Assurances.   From time to time, at the other
party's request and without further consideration, each party
hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and
take all such further action as may be necessary or desirable to
consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner
practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     7.   Stop Transfer Order.   In furtherance of this
Agreement, concurrently herewith, Seller shall and hereby does
authorize WCT's counsel to notify WCT's transfer agent that there
is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Shares (and
that this Agreement places limits on the voting and transfer of
such shares).

     8.   Miscellaneous.
          8.1  Entire Agreement; Assignment.  This Agreement
(i) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral,
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
(ii) shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise,
provided that Frontier may assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
Frontier, but no such assignment shall relieve Frontier of its
obligations hereunder if such assignee does not perform such
obligations.

          8.2  Amendments.   This Agreement may not be modified,
amended, altered or supplemented, except upon the execution and
delivery of a written agreement executed by the parties hereto.

          8.3  Notices.   All notices, requests, claims, demands
and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall
be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly received if so
given) by hand delivery, telegram, telex or telecopy, or by mail

requested) or by any courier service, such as Federal Express,

          8.4  Governing Law.   This Agreement shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Washington, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern
under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.  The
parties have selected Washington law to govern this Agreement
because this Agreement involves, among other things, the voting
of shares of a Washington corporation.

          8.5  Specific Performance.  Each of the parties hereto
recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by it of any covenants
or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other
party to sustain damages for which it would not have an adequate
remedy at law for money damages, and therefore each of the
parties hereto agrees that in the event of any such breach the
aggrieved party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific
performance of such covenants and agreements and injunctive and
other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which
it may be entitled, at law or in equity.

          8.6  Counterparts.   This Agreement may be executed in
two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original, but both of which shall constitute one and the same
Agreement.

          8.7  Descriptive Headings.   The descriptive headings
used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and
are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.

          8.8  Severability.   Whenever possible, each provision
or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted
in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law
but if any provision or portion of any provision of this
Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction,
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect
any other provision or portion of any provision in such
jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and
enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never
been contained herein.


     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Frontier and Seller have caused this
Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above
written.

                          SHAREHOLDER'S AGREEMENT

     SHAREHOLDER'S AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of
February 21, 1995, by and between FRONTIER CORPORATION, a company
organized under the laws of the State of New York ("Frontier"),
and CHRISTOPHER E. EDGECOMB ("Seller").

                                 RECITALS

     Concurrently herewith, Frontier, Rochester Subsidiary
Twenty-Eight, Inc. ("Sub"), a Delaware corporation and a
subsidiary of Frontier, and WCT Communications, Inc. ("WCT"), a
Washington corporation, are entering into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger of even date herewith (the "Merger Agreement";
capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement), which provides, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, for the merger
of Sub with and into WCT.

     As of the date hereof, Seller owns (either beneficially or
of record) 902,655 shares of WCT Common Stock (such shares of
Common Stock and any shares of WCT Common Stock now owned or
acquired after the date hereof and prior to the termination
hereof, whether upon exercise of options, warrants or other
convertible securities or otherwise, collectively, referred to
herein as the "Shares").

     As a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger
Agreement, Frontier and Sub have required that Seller agree, and
Seller has agreed, to grant a proxy to vote all Shares owned by
Seller on the terms and conditions provided for herein.

                                 AGREEMENT

          To implement the foregoing and in consideration of the
mutual agreements contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1.   Agreement to Vote; Proxy.
     1.1  Voting.   Seller, solely in his capacity as a
shareholder of WCT, hereby agrees that, during the time this
Agreement is in effect, at any meeting of the stockholders of


WCT, however called, Seller shall vote (or cause to be voted) the
Shares (a) in favor of the Merger; (b) against any action or
agreement that would result in a breach in any respect of any
covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or
agreement of WCT under the Merger Agreement; and (c) against any
action or agreement (other than the Merger Agreement or the
transactions contemplated thereby) that would impede, interfere
with, delay, postpone or attempt to discourage the Merger,
including, but not limited to: (i) any extraordinary corporate
transaction, such as a merger, consolidation or other business
combination involving WCT or of any of its subsidiaries; (ii) a
sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of WCT or of any
of its subsidiaries or a reorganization, recapitalization or
liquidation of WCT or of any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any
change in the management or board of directors of WCT, except as
otherwise agreed to in writing by Sub; (iv) any change in the
present capitalization or dividend policy of WCT; or (v) any
other change in WCT's corporate structure or business. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this section shall not be deemed
to limit Seller's fiduciary obligations as a director of WCT.

          1.2  Proxy.   Seller hereby grants to Frontier a proxy
to vote the Shares as indicated in Section 1.1 above.  Seller
intends this proxy to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest
and will take such further action or execute such other
instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this
proxy and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by him with
respect to the Shares.

     2.   Expiration.   This Agreement, Frontier's right to vote
the Shares and Seller's obligations pursuant hereto shall
terminate on the Expiration Date.  As used herein, the term
"Expiration Date" means the first to occur of (a) the Effective
Time, (b) termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with
its terms, and (c) written notice of termination of this
Agreement by Frontier to Seller.



     3.   Representation and Warranties.
          3.1  Representation and Warranties of Frontier and Sub. 
Frontier and Sub hereby represent and warrant to Seller as
follows:
          (a)  Due Authorization.   This Agreement and the
     consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall
     constitute a valid and binding agreement of each of Frontier
     and Sub, enforceable against Frontier and Sub in accordance
     with its terms, except that such enforceability (i) may be
     limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other
     similar laws affecting or relating to enforcement of
     creditors' rights generally and (ii) is subject to general
     principles of equity.  
          (b)  No Conflicts.   Except as provided in Sections 4.2
     and 4.3 of the Merger Agreement, (A) no filing with, and no
     permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any state,
     federal or foreign public body or authority is necessary for
     the execution of this Agreement by Frontier and Sub and the
     consummation by Frontier and Sub of the transactions
     contemplated hereby and (B) neither the execution and
     delivery of this Agreement by Frontier and Sub nor the
     consummation by Frontier and Sub of the transactions
     contemplated hereby nor compliance by Frontier and Sub with
     any of the provisions hereof shall (1) conflict with or
     result in any breach of any provision of the certificate of
     incorporation or by-laws (or similar documents) of Frontier
     or Sub, (2) result in a violation or breach of, or
     constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both)
     a default (or give rise to any third party right of
     termination, cancellation, material modification or
     acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or
     provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license,
     contract, agreement or other instrument or obligation to
     which Frontier or Sub is a party or by which it or any of
     its properties or assets may be bound or (3) violate any
     order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation
     applicable to Frontier or Sub or any of its properties or
     assets, except in the case of (2) or (3) for violations,
     breaches or defaults which would not in the aggregate


     materially impair the ability of Frontier or Sub to perform
     its obligations hereunder.
          (c)  Good Standing.   Frontier and Sub are corporations
     duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
     the laws of the State of New York and Delaware,
     respectively, and have all requisite corporate power to
     execute and deliver this Agreement.

          3.2  Representations and Warranties of Seller.   Seller
hereby represents and warrants to Frontier and Sub as follows:
          (a)  Ownership of Shares.   On the date hereof, the
     Shares constitute all of the shares of WCT Common Stock
     owned of record or beneficially by Seller.  Except as
     pursuant to the pledge by Seller of the Shares to Smith,
     Barney in connection with an account maintained by Seller
     with Smith, Barney, Seller has sole voting power and sole
     power of disposition with respect to all of the Shares, with
     no restrictions, subject to applicable federal securities
     laws and the terms of this Agreement, on Seller's rights
     pertaining thereto.  In addition, on the date hereof, Seller
     owns (either beneficially or of record)  no options or
     warrants to acquire Shares.
          (b)  Power; Binding Agreement.   Seller has the legal
     capacity, power and authority to enter into and perform all
     of his obligations under this Agreement.  The execution,
     delivery and performance of this Agreement by Seller will
     not violate any other agreement to which Seller is a party
     including, without limitation, any voting agreement,
     stockholders agreement or voting trust.  This Agreement has
     been duly and validly executed and delivered by Seller and
     constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Seller,
     enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms,
     except that such enforceability (i) may be limited by
     bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws
     affecting or relating to enforcement of creditors' rights
     generally and (ii) is subject to general principles of
     equity.  
          (c)  No Conflicts.  To the best knowledge of Seller,
     except as provided in Section 3.5 of the Merger Agreement,
     (A) no filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent or


     approval of, any state, federal or foreign public body or
     authority is necessary for the execution of this Agreement
     by Seller and the consummation by Seller of the transactions
     contemplated hereby and (B) neither the execution and
     delivery of this Agreement by Seller nor the consummation by
     Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby nor
     compliance by Seller with any of the provisions hereof shall
     (y) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with
     or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or
     give rise to any third party right of termination,
     cancellation, material modification or acceleration) under
     any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note,
     bond, mortgage, indenture, license, contract, agreement or
     other instrument or obligation to which Seller is a party or
     by which he or any of his properties or assets may be bound
     or (z) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute,
     rule or regulation applicable to Seller or any of his
     properties or assets, except in the case of (y) or (z) for
     violations, breaches or defaults which would not in the
     aggregate materially impair the ability of Seller to perform
     his obligations hereunder.
          (d)  Certain Understanding.  Seller understands and
     acknowledges that Frontier is entering into, and causing Sub
     to enter into, the Merger Agreement in reliance upon
     Seller's execution and delivery of this Agreement.

     4.   Certain Covenants of Seller.   Except in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, Seller hereby covenants and
agrees as follows:

          4.1  No Solicitation.  Seller, solely in his capacity
as a shareholder of WCT, shall not, directly or indirectly,
solicit (including by way of furnishing information) any
inquiries or the making of any proposal by any person or entity
(other than Frontier or any affiliate of Frontier) which
constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any sale
of the Shares, provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to
limit Seller's fiduciary obligations as a director of WCT.  If
Seller receives an inquiry or proposal with respect to the sale
of Shares, then Seller shall promptly inform Frontier of the


terms and conditions, if any, of such inquiry or proposal and the
identity of the person making it.  Seller will immediately cease
and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions
or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with
respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that this
paragraph shall not be construed to require Seller to notify any
such parties of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.

          4.2  Restriction on Transfer, Proxies and Non-
Interference.   Other than in favor of Frontier or any of its
affiliates, Seller hereby agrees, while this Agreement is in
effect, and except as contemplated hereby, not to (i) sell,
transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or
enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or
understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge,
encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any of the
Shares or (ii) grant any proxies, deposit any Shares into a
voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any
Shares or (iii) take any action that would make any
representation or warranty of Seller contained herein untrue or
incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling Seller
from performing his obligations under this Agreement.

          4.3  Additional Shares.   Seller hereby agrees, while
this Agreement is in effect, to promptly notify Frontier of the
number of any Shares acquired, or options to acquire Shares, by
Seller, if any, after the date hereof.

     5.   Further Assurances.   From time to time, at the other
party's request and without further consideration, each party
hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and
take all such further action as may be necessary or desirable to
consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner
practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     6.   Stop Transfer Order.   In furtherance of this
Agreement, concurrently herewith, Seller shall and hereby does
authorize WCT's counsel to notify WCT's transfer agent that there
is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Shares (and
that this Agreement places limits on the voting and transfer of


such shares).

     7.   Miscellaneous.
          7.1  Entire Agreement; Assignment.  This Agreement
(i) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral,
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
(ii) shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise,
provided that Frontier may assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
Frontier, but no such assignment shall relieve Frontier of its
obligations hereunder if such assignee does not perform such
obligations. 

          7.2  Amendments.   This Agreement may not be modified,
amended, altered or supplemented, except upon the execution and
delivery of a written agreement executed by the parties hereto.

          7.3  Notices.   All notices, requests, claims, demands
and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall
be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly received if so
given) by hand delivery, telegram, telex or telecopy, or by mail
(registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested) or by any courier service, such as Federal Express,
providing proof of delivery.  All communications hereunder shall
be delivered to the respective parties at the following
addresses:

          7.4  Governing Law.   This Agreement shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Washington, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern
under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.  The
parties have selected Washington law to govern this Agreement
because this Agreement involves, among other things, the voting
of shares of a Washington corporation.

          7.5  Specific Performance.  Each of the parties hereto
recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by it of any covenants
or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other
party to sustain damages for which it would not have an adequate
remedy at law for money damages, and therefore each of the
parties hereto agrees that in the event of any such breach the
aggrieved party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific
performance of such covenants and agreements and injunctive and
other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which


it may be entitled, at law or in equity.

          7.6  Counterparts.   This Agreement may be executed in
two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original, but both of which shall constitute one and the same
Agreement.

          7.7  Descriptive Headings.   The descriptive headings
used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and
are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.

          7.8  Severability.   Whenever possible, each provision
or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted
in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law
but if any provision or portion of any provision of this
Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction,
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect
any other provision or portion of any provision in such
jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and
enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never
been contained herein.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Frontier and Seller have caused this
Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above
written.
