Report of Independent Accountants
To the Board of Trustees of the
MasTec, Inc.
401(k) Retirement Savings Plan:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of The MasTec, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") at December 31,
1998 and 1997, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of Assets Held
for Investment Purposes as of December 31, 1998, and Reportable Transactions for
the year then ended, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and
are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. The fund information in the statements of net assets available for
benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net
assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for
benefits of each fund. These supplemental schedules and fund information are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules and fund
information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of the
Company who are age twenty-one or older and have one year of service. Eligible
participants may enter the Plan on January 1 or July 1. It is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") and

The Plan is administered by the Employee Benefits Committee (Plan
Administrators). Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company is the Trustee and
Recordkeeper of the Plan for all funds except for the MasTec Common Stock Fund
which the Trustee is Norwest Bank, Minnesota, N.A. Plan assets are held by the
Trustee.
At December 31, 1998, Benefit Services Corporation was the Trustee and
Recordkeeper of certain Plan assets of a company acquired by MasTec, Inc. in
1998. Subsequent to December 31, 1998, these assets were transferred to
Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company and invested in the Plan upon the
employee's elections.
Contributions
Participants may contribute from 1% to 15% of their pre-tax annual compensation,
subject to certain dollar amount limits, as defined in the plan agreement. The
maximum contribution allowed during 1998 and 1997 was $10,000 and $9,500,
respectively.
The Company's contributions are discretionary. During 1998, the Company's
contributions were 25% of each dollar up to 4% of the participant's gross
salary. The Company match is exclusively in MasTec Common Stock.
During 1998, the 401(k) plans of certain companies acquired by MasTec, Inc. were
converted to the Plan, with the related employer becoming participants. All of
the assets of these plans were converted at a fair value of approximately
$6,653,000 and invested in the Plan upon the employee's elections. Such amounts
are included as participants' contributions for 1998.

Participants forfeit the portion of their account balance to the extent not
vested.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
The significant accounting policies followed by the Plan are as follows:
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of additions and deductions during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
11
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued:
Risk and Uncertainties
The plan provides for various investment options in any combination of stocks,
bonds, fixed income securities, mutual funds, and other investment securities.
Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate,
market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment
securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of
investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks
in the near term would materially affect participants' account balances and the
amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for plan benefits and
the statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits.
Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition
The Plan's investments are valued by the trustees (Note 1) and are stated at
fair value using quoted market prices.
Purchase and sales transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Any gain or
loss resulting from the sale of fund units is determined as the difference
between the sales proceeds and the average cost of the units sold. Investment
income is recorded on the accrual basis.
Investment Income
The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits the net appreciation/depreciation in the fair value of its investments
which consists of the realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on those investments.
Participant Withdrawals
Withdrawals made by participants are recorded when paid.
Administrative Costs
All administrative expenses of the Plan, including, without limitation, the
allocable portion of compensation of plan administrative staff and fees of
employee benefits consultants, legal counsel, and auditors' fees are chargeable
to the Plan. The Company may, at its sole discretion, pay any such expenses, in
whole or in part. The Company assumed responsibility for administrative expenses
for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997.

3. Plan Termination:
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination,
participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
4. Tax Status:
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter
dated June 17, 1997, that the Plan is designed in accordance with applicable
sections of the IRC. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination
letter. However, the Plan Administrator and the Plan's legal counsel believe
that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the IRC.
