Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements 
Any statements contained in this presentation that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about our beliefs and
expectations, are forward-looking statements and should be evaluated as such. The words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,”
“plans,” “estimates,” “targets,” “projects,” “should,” “may,” “will” and similar words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Such forward-looking statements reflect, among other things, our current expectations, plans and strategies, and anticipated
financial results, all of which are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and factors that may cause our actual results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Many of these risks are beyond our ability to control or
predict. Because of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Furthermore, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake any obligation to update or review
any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Important factors with respect to any
such forward-looking statements, including certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in
the forward-looking statements, include, but are not limited to: rapid development and intense competition in the telecommunications and
high speed data transport industry; our ability to offset expected revenue declines in legacy voice and access products related to the recent
regulatory actions, wireless substitution, technology changes and other factors; our ability to effectively allocate capital and implement our
“edge-out” expansion plans in a timely manner; our ability to complete customer installations in a timely manner; adverse economic
conditions; operating and financial restrictions imposed by our senior credit facility; our cash and capital requirements; declining prices for
our services; our ability to maintain and enhance our network; the potential to experience a high rate of customer turnover; federal and state
regulatory fees, requirements and developments; our reliance on certain suppliers and vendors; and other unforeseen difficulties that may
occur. These risks and uncertainties are not intended to represent a complete list of all risks and uncertainties inherent in our business, and
should be read in conjunction with the more detailed cautionary statements and risk factors included in our SEC filings, including our Annual
Report filed on Form 10-K.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Included in this presentation are certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not determined in accordance with US generally accepted
accounting principles.  These financial performance measures are not indicative of cash provided or used by operating activities and exclude
the effects of certain operating, capital and financing costs and may differ from comparable information provided by other companies, and
they should not be considered in isolation, as an alternative to, or more meaningful than measures of financial performance determined in
accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial performance measures are commonly used in the industry and
are presented because Lumos Networks Corp. believes they provide relevant and useful information to investors.  The Company utilizes
these financial performance measures to assess its ability to meet future capital expenditure and working capital requirements, to incur
indebtedness if necessary, and to fund continued growth.  Lumos Networks Corp. also uses these financial performance measures to
evaluate the performance of its business, for budget planning purposes and as factors in its employee compensation programs.

Dark Fiber Product Officially Launched May 2015
Targeting a Growing Number of RFPs in our Footprint:
Macro Fiber to the Cell Backhaul
Small Cell Fronthaul
Large Enterprises: Healthcare, Education/Gov’t, Financial
Data Centers
Relatively limited Dark Fiber deployments in our footprint (by any fiber
provider), but activity should increase in 2015 and beyond
Lumos Dark Fiber Product has standardized Monthly Recurring Charge
(MRC) and Non-Recurring Charge (NRC) pricing
Lumos provides Dark Fiber cable and customer supplies equipment and
resources to manage the services
Lumos has $1m+ in annual Dark Fiber revenue, mostly derived from
Alleghany Energy assets purchased in 2009
