ITEM 1. Business

General

Total-Tel USA Communications, Inc. ("TotalTel", the "Registrant" or the
"Company") is a leading regional facilities-based long distance
telecommunications provider servicing both the commercial and wholesale
marketplace. The Registrant's retail segment operates principally in the
Northeast, primarily servicing small and medium-sized businesses. The
Registrant's products and services include a broad range of voice, data
and Internet solutions. The wholesale division provides domestic and
international termination services to carriers worldwide at competitive
rates. The Registrant currently owns three long distance switches, in New
York City, Newark, New Jersey and Miami, Florida, and has a Network
Operations Center ("NOC") in Northern New Jersey, to monitor and control
its New Jersey network and to coordinate its various services. As a result
of the restructuring plan initiatiated in the fourth quarter of fiscal
1999, the switch in Miami is being eliminated. (See ITEM 7 - Overview.)

Total-Tel processes approximately 95% of all its call volume through its
own facilities. The Registrant uses proven technology to provide
customized telecommunications solutions to its customers.

In the retail market, the Registrant has segmented potential customers and
tailored its service offerings, sales, marketing approach and network
development to provide service in a cost-effective manner. The Registrant
believes its customer service to be one of its principal competitive
advantages. The Registrant applies a dedicated team approach to soliciting
and servicing its clients, with substantial involvement of sales, customer
service and technical personnel in all aspects of customer relations. The
Registrant intends to continue to focus its efforts on small to
medium-sized customers with sales of $1 million to $60 million and monthly
long distance bills which typically range from $500 to $30,000. The
Registrant's focus on customer service has also enabled it to reach larger
customers.

For Fiscal 1999, Total-Tel had gross revenues of approximately $137
million, derived approximately 53% each from wholesale and 47% from 
commercial services. For Fiscal 1998, the Registrant's gross revenues were
approximately $123 million. This growth has been achieved through internal
efforts and not as a result of acquisitions. The Registrant's commercial
sales activities have been concentrated in Northern New Jersey and New
York City, where, the Registrant believes, approximately half of all
United States multinational corporations have headquarters. Based on
industry sources, this area is believed to represent 40% of the total
United States telecommunications market. In addition, this market area is
an important international gateway, generating a significant amount of
international telephone traffic. This is evidenced by the Registrant's
Fiscal 1999 revenues, which were derived approximately 50% each from
international and domestic traffic. For the near term, at least, Total-Tel
intends to focus its efforts on further penetrating commercial users of
its services in the Northeast, particularly in the Metropolitan New York
area, and to augment the services offered to its customers.

The Registrant's principal executive offices are located at Overlook at
Great Notch, 150 Clove Road, Little Falls, New Jersey 07424, and its
telephone number is (973) 812-1100. The Registrant was incorporated in
1959 as Faradyne Electronics Corp. In November 1991, the Registrant
changed its name from Faradyne Electronics Corp. to Total-Tel USA
Communications, Inc.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

History and Industry Development

Domestic. Prior to 1984, AT&T dominated both the local exchange and long
distance marketplaces by owning the operating entities that provided both
local exchange and long distance services to most of the United States
population. Although long distance competition began to emerge in the late
1970s, the critical event triggering the growth of long distance
competition was the breakup of AT&T and the separation of its local and
long distance businesses as mandated by the Modified Final Judgment (the
"MFJ") relating to the breakup of AT&T (the "MFJ"). To foster competition
in the long distance market, the MFJ prohibited AT&T's divested local
exchange businesses, the Regional Bell Operating Companies ("RBOCs"), from
acting as single-source providers of telecommunications services.

Although the MFJ established the preconditions for competition in the
market for long distance services in 1984, the market for local exchange
services has until recently virtually been closed to competition and has
largely been dominated by regulated monopolies. Efforts to open the local
exchange market began in the late 1980s on a state-by-state basis.

The Telecommunications Act of 1996, (the "1996 Act") is considered to be
the most comprehensive reform of the nation's telecommunications laws and
affects the development of competition for local telecommunications
services. Specifically, certain provisions of the 1996 Act provide for (i)
the removal of legal barriers for entry into the local telecommunications
services market; (ii) the interconnection of the Incumbent Local Exchange
Carrier (the "ILEC") network with competitors' networks; (iii) the
establishment of procedures and requirements to be followed by the RBOCs,
including the requirement that RBOCs offer local services for resale as a
precondition to their entering into the long distance and
telecommunications equipment manufacturing markets; and (iv) the
relaxation of the regulation of certain telecommunications services
provided by Local Exchange Carriers ("LEC") and others.

The continuing deregulation of the telecommunications industry and
technological change have resulted in an increasingly
information-intensive business environment. Regulatory, technological,
marketing and competitive trends have expanded substantially the
Registrant's opportunities in the converging voice and data communications
services markets. For example, technological advances, including rapid
growth of the Internet, the increased use of packet switching technology
for voice communications, and the growth of multimedia applications, are
expected to result in substantial growth in the high-speed data services
market.

This new market opportunity should permit Competitive Access Providers
("CAPs") with operating and marketing expertise to offer a full range of
telecommunications services, including local and long distance calling,
toll-free calling, custom calling features, data services, and Internet
access and services. Telecommunications companies with an established base
of long distance customers may have an opportunity to sell additional
services to such customers.

The Registrant believes that small and medium-sized businesses have
historically been under served with respect to customer service and
support. The Registrant has observed that RBOCs and the Tier I carriers
(carriers with annual revenues of $5 billion), primarily concentrate their
sales and marketing efforts on residential and large business customers.
Thus, the Registrant also believes there is a significant market
opportunity with respect to small and medium-sized businesses to which
customer service may be a significant part of their buying decision.

International. International telecommunications involves the transmission
of voice and data information from the domestic telephone network of one
country to that of another. The Registrant believes that international
telecommunications is one of the fastest growing and most profitable
segments of the telecommunications industry. The international
telecommunications industry has been undergoing rapid change due to
deregulation, the construction of additional infrastructure, and the
introduction of new technologies, which has resulted in increased
competition and demand for telecommunications services worldwide.

Network

The Registrant's strategy has been to develop a geographic concentration
of revenue-producing customers through the sale of telecommunications
services in areas where it has installed switching platforms.

Current Network

Switches. Currently, the Registrant operates an advanced
telecommunications network which includes three DSC switches. The
Registrant's existing switches are located in New York, Newark, and Miami.
The Registrant has installed DSC DEX 600 switches in Newark and Miami and
a DEX600E switch in New York, which provides interexchange switching
capabilities and is currently being used as the Registrant's international
gateway switching platform. As a result of the restructuring plan
initiatiated in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, the switch in Miami is
being eliminated. (See ITEM 7 - Overview.)

During Fiscal 1999, the Registrant billed approximately 980 million
minutes, or approximately 95% of its total minutes, over its own switches.
The Registrant believes that increasing the traffic carried on its own
network would improve operating margins.

International. The Registrant is interconnected with a number of United
States and foreign wholesale international carriers through its New York
switch. The purpose of connecting to a variety of carriers is to provide
state-of-the-art, lowest-cost routing and network reliability. These
interconnected international carriers are also a source of wholesale
international traffic and revenue.

Other Features. The Registrant is interconnected by SS7 out-of-band
digital signaling throughout its network. The SS7 signaling system reduces
connect time delays, thereby enhancing overall network efficiencies.
Additionally, the SS7 technology is designed to permit the anticipated
expansion of the Registrant's Advanced Intelligent Network ("AIN")
capabilities throughout its network. The Registrant's advanced switching
platform would enable it to (i) deploy features and functions quickly
throughout its entire network, (ii) expand switch capacity in a
cost-effective manner, and (iii) lower maintenance costs through reduced
training and spare parts requirements.

Security and Reliability. The Registrant has a NOC in Northern New Jersey,
which monitors and controls the Registrant's network and coordinates its
various services from a central location, increasing the security,
reliability and efficiency of the Registrant's operations. Centralized
electronic monitoring and control of the Registrant's network allows the
Registrant to avoid duplication of this function in each region. The NOC
also helps reduce the Registrant's per-customer monitoring and customer
service costs. In addition, the Registrant's network employs an
"authorized access" architecture. Unlike many telecommunications
companies, which allow universal access to their network, the Registrant
utilizes an automatic number identification security screening
architecture which ensures only the ANIs of those users who have
subscribed to the Registrant's services and have satisfied the
Registrant's credit and provisioning criteria have access to the network.
The Registrant believes that this architecture provides the Registrant the
ability to better control bad debt and fraud in a manner which is
invisible and nonintrusive to the customer. This architecture also allows
the Registrant to better manage network capacity, as unauthorized and
unplanned users cannot access the network.

PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Product and Service Offerings

The Registrant offers retail telecommunications services primarily to
small and medium-sized businesses. The Registrant's retail service
offerings currently include long distance and toll-free services (both

collocation facilities and transport services to a broad spectrum of
domestic and international carriers. The Registrant offers international
wholesale termination and transport services primarily to domestic and
international telecommunications carriers. Once the Registrant
interconnects with a carrier customer, the carrier may utilize the
Registrant on an as-needed basis, depending upon the pricing offered by
the Registrant and its competitors, as well as capacity. The Registrant
has been tested and approved as an authorized carrier for, and included in
the routing tables of, all of its long distance and international carrier
customers.

CUSTOMER BASE

Commercial Customers

The Registrant provides retail telecommunications services to over 14,000
commercial customers, primarily in the Northeastern United States.
Approximately 53% of the Registrant's Fiscal 1999 revenues were derived
from the sale of services to the retail segment. Retail revenues were
approximately $72,556,000 and $65,305,000 in Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998,
respectively.

Wholesale Customers

The Registrant provides wholesale telecommunications services to various
national and international telecommunications carriers. Approximately 47%
of the Registrant's Fiscal 1999 revenues were derived from domestic and
international wholesale services. Wholesale revenues were approximately
$64,727,000 and $57,981,000 during Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998,
respectively.

Telecommunications Services Market

Overview of the United States Market. The United States market for
telecommunications services can be divided into three basic sectors: long
distance services, local exchange services and Internet access services.

Long Distance Services. A long distance telephone call can be envisioned
as consisting of three segments. Starting with the originating customer,
the call travels along a local exchange network to a long distance
carrier's point of presence ("POP"). At the POP, the call is combined with
other calls and sent along a long distance network to a POP on the long
distance carrier's network near where the call will terminate. The call is
then sent from this POP along a local network to the terminating customer.
Long distance carriers provide only the connection between the two local
networks; and, unless the long distance carrier is a local service
provider, pay access charges to LECs for originating and terminating
calls.

Local Exchange Services. A local call is one that does not require the
services of a long distance carrier. In general, the local exchange
carrier connects end-user customers within a LATA and also provides the
local portion of most long distance calls.

Internet Service. Internet services are generally provided in at least two
distinct segments. A local network connection is required from the
Internet Service Provider ("ISP") customer to the ISP's local facilities.
For large, communication-intensive users and for content providers, the
connections are typically unswitched, dedicated connections provided by
LECs, Intelligent Call Processing ("ICP"), or other providers, either as
independent service providers or, in some cases, by a carrier that is both
a CLEC and an ISP. For residential and small and medium-sized business
users, these connections are generally Public Switched Telephone Network
("PSTN") connections obtained on a dial-up access basis as a local
exchange telephone call. Once a local connection is made to the ISP's
local facilities, information can be transmitted and obtained over a
packet-switched IP data network, which may consist of segments provided by
many interconnected networks operated by a number of ISPs. The collection
of interconnected networks makes up the Internet. A key feature of
Internet architecture and packet-switching is that a single dedicated
channel between communication points is never established, which
distinguishes Internet-based services from the PSTN.

International Service. A typical international long distance call
originates on a local exchange network or private line and is carried to
the international gateway switch of a long distance carrier. The call is
then transported along a fiber optic cable or a satellite connection to an
international gateway switch in the terminating country and, finally, to
another local exchange network or private line where the call is
terminated. Generally, only a small number of carriers are licensed by a
foreign country for international long distance and, in many countries,
only the Post Telephone & Telegraph administration ("PTT") is licensed or
authorized to provide international long distance service. Any carrier
which desires to transport switched calls to or from a particular country
must, in addition to obtaining a license or other permission (if
required), enter into operating agreements or other arrangements with the
PTT or another international carrier in that country or lease capacity
from a carrier which already has such arrangements.

Market Opportunities

As a result of the 1996 Act and other federal, state, and international
initiatives, numerous telecommunications markets have been opened to
competition. In addition, the increasing globalization of the world
economy, along with increased reliance on data transmission and Internet
access, has expanded traditional telecommunications markets. The
Registrant has targeted its services principally to small and medium-sized
businesses based upon its belief that such customers are not aggressively
targeted by Tier I providers and are underserved with respect to customer
service and support.

COMPETITION

Overview

The Registrant operates in a highly competitive industry and estimates
that it has no greater than a 1% market share in any market in which it
operates. The Registrant expects that competition will continue to
intensify in the future due to regulatory changes, including the continued
implementation of the 1996 Act, and the increase in the size, resources,
and number of market participants. In each of its markets, the Registrant
will face competition from larger, better capitalized Tier I and Tier II
providers and ILECs and CLECs. While new business opportunities may be
made available to the Registrant through the 1996 Act and other federal
and state regulatory initiatives, regulators are likely to provide the
ILECs with an increased degree of flexibility with regard to pricing of
their services as competition increases.

Competition for the Registrant's products and services is based on price,
quality, reputation, name recognition, network reliability, service
features, billing services, perceived quality and responsiveness to
customers' needs. While the Registrant believes that it currently has
certain advantages relating to price, quality, customer service and
responsiveness to customer needs, there is no assurance that the
Registrant will be able to maintain these advantages or obtain additional
advantages. A continuing trend toward business combinations and alliances
in the telecommunications industry may create significant new competitors
to the Registrant. Many of the Registrant's existing and potential
competitors have financial, technical, and other resources significantly
greater than those of the Registrant. In addition, in December, 1997, the
FCC issued rules to implement the provisions of the World Trade
Organization Agreement on Basic Telecommunications, which was drafted to
liberalize restrictions on foreign ownership of domestic
telecommunications companies and to allow foreign telecommunications
companies to enter domestic markets. The new FCC rules went into effect in
February, 1998 and are expected to make it substantially easier for many
non-United States telecommunications companies to enter the United States
market, thus further increasing the number of competitors. The new rules
will also give non-United States individuals and corporations greater
ability to invest in United States telecommunications companies, thus
increasing the financial and technical resources potentially available to
existing and potential competitors as well as Registrant.

Long Distance Market

The long distance telecommunications industry is highly competitive and
affected by the introduction of new services by, and the market activities
of, major industry participants. The Registrant competes against various
national and regional long distance carriers, including both
facilities-based providers and switchless resellers offering essentially
the same services as the Registrant. In addition, significant competition
is expected to be provided by ILECs including, when authorized, RBOCs. The
Registrant's success will depend upon its ability to provide high-quality
services at prices competitive with, or lower than, those charged by its
competitors. In addition, the long distance industry is characterized by a
high level of customer attrition or "churn." Such attrition is
attributable to a variety of factors, including initiatives of competitors
as they engage in advertising campaigns, marketing programs, and cash
payments and other incentives. End users are often not obligated to
purchase any minimum usage amount and can discontinue service without
penalty at any time. While the Registrant believes its customer turnover
rate is lower than that of many of its competitors, the Registrant's
revenue has been, and is expected to continue to be, affected by churn.

The Tier I providers and other carriers have implemented new price plans
aimed at residential customers with significantly simplified rate
structures, which may have the impact of lowering overall long distance
prices. There can also be no assurance that long distance carriers will
not make similar offerings available to the small to medium-sized
businesses that the Registrant primarily serves. While the Registrant
believes small and medium-sized business customers are not aggressively
targeted by large long distance providers, such as the Tier I providers,
there can be no assurance the Registrant's customers and potential
customers will not be targeted by these or other providers in the future.
Additional pricing pressure may come from IP transport, which is a
developing use of packet-switched technology which can transmit voice
communications at a cost which may be below that of traditional
circuit-switched long distance service. While IP transport is not yet
available in all areas, requires the dialing of additional digits, and
generally produces sound quality inferior to traditional long distance
service, it could eventually be perceived as a substitute for traditional
long distance service and put pricing pressure on long distance rates. Any
reduction in long distance prices may have a material adverse effect on
the Registrant's business, financial condition and results of operations.

One of the Registrant's principal competitors, MCI/WorldCom, is also a
major supplier of services to the Registrant. The Registrant both links
its switching equipment with transmission facilities and services
purchased or leased from MCI/WorldCom, and resells services obtained from
MCI/WorldCom. There can be no assurance that MCI/WorldCom will continue to
offer services to the Registrant at competitive rates or on attractive
terms, if at all, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse
effect on the Registrant.

Local Exchange Market

Under the 1996 Act and related federal and state regulatory initiatives,
barriers to local exchange competition are being removed. In local
telecommunication markets, the Registrant's primary competitor would be
the ILEC serving each geographic area. ILECs are established providers of
local telephone services to all or virtually all telephone subscribers
within their respective service areas. ILECs also have long-standing
relationships with regulatory authorities at the federal and state levels.
While recent FCC administrative decisions and initiatives provide
increased business opportunities to voice, data and Internet-service
providers, they also provide the ILECs with increased pricing flexibility
for their private line, special access and switched access services. In
addition, with respect to competitive access services, the FCC recently
proposed a rule which would provide for increased ILEC pricing flexibility
and deregulation for such access services, either automatically or after
certain competitive levels are reached. If the ILECs are allowed
additional flexibility by regulators to offer discounts to large customers
through contract tariffs, decide to engage in aggressive volume and term
discount pricing practices for their customers, or seek to charge
competitors excessive fees for interconnection to their networks, the
revenue of competitors to the ILECs could be materially adversely
affected. If future regulatory decisions afford the ILECs increased access
services, pricing flexibility or other regulatory relief, such decisions
could also have a material adverse affect on competitors to the ILECs.

The Registrant also would face competition or prospective competition in
local markets from other carriers, many of which have significantly
greater financial resources than the Registrant. For example, the Tier I
providers have each begun to offer local telecommunications services in
major domestic markets using their own facilities or by resale of the
ILECs' or other providers' services. In addition to these long-distance
service providers, entities which currently offer or are potentially
capable of offering local switched services include companies which have
previously operated as Competitive Access Provider ("CAP"), cable
television companies, electric utilities, microwave carriers, wireless
telephone system operators, and large customers who build private
networks. These entities, upon entering into appropriate interconnection
agreements or resale agreements with ILECs, could offer single-source
local and long distance services, similar to those offered or proposed to
be offered by the Registrant.

In addition, a continuing trend towards business combinations and
alliances in the telecommunications industry may create significant new
competitors to the Registrant. Many of these combined entities will have
resources far greater than those of the Registrant. These combined
entities may provide a bundled package of telecommunications products,
including local and long distance telephony, that is in direct competition
with the products offered or proposed to be offered by the Registrant, and
may be capable of offering these products sooner and at more competitive
rates than the Registrant. The Registrant does not currently offer local
telephone services, but is considering entry into this market to better
serve its existing customers and provide a one-stop service for customers,
in its targeted market; namely, small to medium sized businesses.

YEAR 2000 MATTERS

As is the case with most other companies using computers in their
operations, the Registrant is in the process of addressing the year 2000
(Y2K) issues. The Registrant believes it has a solid plan in place.
Modifications, such as software and hardware upgrades have been scheduled
or are under development/deployment for all Information Technology ("IT")
and non-IT systems. Specifically, the Registrant's review of its year 2000
compliance included the Registrant's electronic data processing equipment,
including all switches, digital cross connects, and other date sensitive
processor associated with the Registrant's telecommunications network,
back office, and billing and collection systems. Any required
modifications would be addressed concurrently with another project to
enhance the Registrant's billing system and should be completed by the
third quarter of 1999. The total cost for the upgrades and management
overhead is estimated to be approximately $750,000, which has been
included in the Registrant's budget.

Despite the foregoing efforts and expenditures, there can be no assurance
that the Registrant will be able to identify all year 2000 issues in its
IT and non-IT systems in advance of their occurrence or that the
Registrant will be able to successfully remedy any such issues.
Additionally, to the extent that the Registrant's suppliers or customers
fail to address year 2000 issues in a timely and effective manner, the
Registrant's ability to provide uninterrupted, reliable service to
customers serviced through its networks may be adversely affected. In an
effort to assess the foregoing risk, the Registrant has been surveying all
of its material customers and suppliers as to their current state of year
2000 compliance. Based on the survey results, the Registrant believes they
are taking the steps necessary to ensure their readiness.

The profitability and stability of the Registrant's customers may be
adversely affected by year 2000 issues not related to their relationships
with the Registrant. The expenses or liabilities to which the Registrant
may become subject as a result of any year 2000 issues, or the impact of
year 2000 issues on the ability of existing or future customers to do
business with the Registrant cannot be precisely determined, but could
have a material adverse effect on the Registrant's business, operating
results and financial condition.

Seasonal Nature of Business

Registrant's business is not seasonal.

Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, etc.

Registrant does not hold any material patents, franchises or concessions.



GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

Overview

The Registrant's services are subject to regulation by federal, state, and
local governmental agencies. The FCC exercises jurisdiction over all
facilities and services of telecommunications common carriers to the
extent those facilities are used to provide, originate or terminate
interstate or international communications. State regulatory agencies
retain jurisdiction over carriers' facilities and services to the extent
they are used to originate or terminate intrastate communications.
Municipalities and other local government agencies may require carriers to
obtain licenses or franchises regulating use of public rights-of-way
necessary to install and operate their networks. The networks are also
subject to numerous local regulations such as building codes, franchises,
and rights of way licensing requirements. Many of the regulations issued
by these regulatory bodies may be subject to judicial review, the results
of which the Registrant is unable to predict.

The 1996 Act

Statutory Requirements. The 1996 Act requires all LECs (including ILECs
and CLECs) (i) not to prohibit or unduly restrict resale of their
services; (ii) to provide local number portability; (iii) to provide
dialing parity and nondiscriminatory access to telephone numbers, operator
services, directory assistance, and directory listings; (iv) to afford
access to poles, ducts, conduits, and rights-of-way; and (v) to establish
reciprocal compensation arrangements for the transport and termination of
local telecommunications traffic. It also requires ILECs to negotiate
local interconnection agreements in good faith and to provide
interconnection (a) for the transmission and routing of telephone exchange
service and exchange access, (b) at any technically feasible point within
the ILEC's network, (c) which is at least equal in quality to that
provided by the ILEC to itself, its affiliates, or any other party to
which the ILEC provides interconnection, and (d) at rates and terms and
conditions which are just, reasonable and nondiscriminatory. ILECs also
are required under the 1996 Act to provide nondiscriminatory access to
network elements on an unbundled basis at any technically feasible point,
to offer their local telephone services for resale at wholesale rates, and
to facilitate collocation of equipment necessary for competitors to
interconnect with or access UNEs.

In addition, the 1996 Act requires RBOCs to comply with certain safeguards
and offer interconnection which satisfies a prescribed 14-point
competitive checklist before RBOCs are permitted to provide in-region
inter-LATA services. These safeguards are designed to ensure that the
RBOC's competitors have access to local exchange and exchange access
services on nondiscriminatory terms and that the subscribers of regulated
non-competitive RBOC services do not subsidize their provision of
competitive services. The safeguards are also intended to promote
competition by preventing RBOCs from using their market power in local
exchange services to obtain an anti-competitive advantage in the provision
of other services.

The 1996 Act also granted important regulatory relief to industry segments
which compete with CLECs. ILECs were given substantial new pricing
flexibility. RBOCs have the ability to provide out-of-region long-distance
services and, if they obtain authorization and under prescribed
circumstances, may provide additional in-region long-distance services.
RBOCs also were granted new rights to provide certain cable TV services.
Inter Exchange Carriers ("IXC") were permitted to construct their own
local facilities and/or resell local services. State laws no longer may
require CATVs to obtain a franchise before offering telecommunications
services nor permit CATVs' franchise fees to be based on their
telecommunications revenue. In addition, under the 1996 Act all utility
holding companies are permitted to diversify into telecommunications
services through separate subsidiaries.

FCC Rules Implementing the Local Competition Provisions of the 1996 Act.
On August 8, 1996, the FCC released a First Report and Order, a Second
Report and Order and a Memorandum Opinion and Order in its CC Docket 96-98
(combined, the "Interconnection Orders") which established a framework of
minimum, national rules enabling state Public Utility Commissions
"("PUC"s) and Public Service Commissions ("PSCs"), and the FCC to begin
implementing many of the local competition provisions of the 1996 Act. In
its Interconnection Orders, the FCC prescribed certain minimum points of
interconnection necessary to permit competing carriers to choose the most
efficient points at which to interconnect with the ILECs' networks. The
FCC also adopted a minimum list of unbundled network elements that ILECs
must make available to competitors upon request and a methodology for
states to use in establishing rates for interconnection and the purchase
of unbundled network elements. The FCC also adopted a methodology for
States to use when applying the 1996 Act "avoided cost standard" for
setting wholesale prices with respect to retail services.

Section 706 Forbearance. Section 706 of the 1996 Act gives the FCC the
right to forebear from regulating a market if the FCC concludes that such
forbearance is necessary to encourage the rapid deployment of advanced
telecommunications capability. Section 706 has not been used to date, but
in January 1998, Bell Atlantic filed a petition under Section 706 seeking
to have the FCC deregulate entirely the provision of packet-switched
telecommunications services. Similar petitions were later filed by the
Alliance for Public Technology and US West Inc. (currently Media One Group
Inc.), and other ILECs are expected to file similar petitions in the near
future. If these petitions are granted, RBOCs would be free to provide a
bundled package of intrastate and interstate data and Internet services
similar to those the Registrant intends to offer. Such an FCC decision
could have a material adverse effect on the Registrant.

Other Federal Regulations

In general, the FCC has a policy of encouraging the entry of new
competitors in the telecommunications industry and preventing
anti-competitive practices. Therefore, the FCC has established different
levels of regulation for dominant carriers and non-dominant carriers. For
purposes of domestic common carrier telecommunications regulation, large
ILECs are currently considered dominant carriers, while CLECs are
considered non-dominant carriers.

* Tariffs. As a non-dominant carrier, the Registrant may install and
operate facilities for the transmission of domestic interstate
communications without prior FCC authorization. Services of non-dominant
carriers have been subject to relatively limited regulation by the FCC,
primarily consisting of the filing of tariffs and periodic reports.
However, non-dominant carriers like the Registrant must offer interstate
services on a nondiscriminatory basis, at just and reasonable rates, and
remain subject to FCC complaint procedures. With the exception of
informational tariffs for operator-assisted services and tariffs for
interexchange casual calling services, the FCC has ruled that IXCs must
cancel their tariffs for domestic interstate interexchange services.
Tariffs remain required for international services. Pursuant to these FCC
requirements, the Registrant has filed and maintains tariffs for its
interstate services with the FCC. All of the interstate access and retail
"basis" services (as defined by the FCC) provided by the Registrant are
described therein. "Enhanced" services (as defined by the FCC) need not be
tariffed. The Registrant believes that its proposed enhanced voice and
Internet services are "enhanced" services which need not be tariffed.
However, the FCC is reexamining the "enhanced" definition as it relates to
IP transport and the Registrant cannot predict whether the FCC will change
the classification of such services.

* International Services. Non-dominant carriers such as the Registrant are
required to obtain FCC authorization pursuant to Section 214 of the
Communications Act and file tariffs before providing international
communication services. The Registrant has obtained authority from the FCC
to provide voice and data communications services between United States
and all foreign points.

* ILEC Price Cap Regulation Reform. In 1991, the FCC replaced traditional
rate of return regulation for large ILECs with price cap regulation. Under
price caps, ILECs can raise prices for certain services by only a small
percentage each year. In addition, there are constraints on the pricing of
ILEC services which are competitive with those of CLECs. On September 14,
1995, the FCC proposed a three-stage plan which would substantially reduce
ILEC price cap regulation as local markets become increasingly competitive
and, ultimately, would result in granting ILECs nondominant status.
Adoption of the FCC's proposal to reduce significantly its regulation of
ILEC pricing would significantly enhance the ability of ILECs to compete
against the Registrant and could have a material adverse effect on the
Registrant. The FCC released an order on December 24, 1996 that adopted
certain of these proposals, including the elimination of the lower service
band index limits on price reductions within the access service category.
The FCC's December 1996 order also eased the requirements necessary for
the introduction of new services by ILECs. On May 7, 1997, the FCC took
further action in its CC Docket No. 94-1 updating and reforming its price
cap plan for the ILECs. Among other things, the changes require price cap
LECs to reduce their price cap indices by 6.5 percent annually, less an
adjustment for inflation. The FCC also eliminated rules that require ILECs
earning more than certain specified rates of return to "share" portions of
the excess with their access customers during the next year in the form of
lower access rates. These actions would have a significant impact on the
interstate access prices charged by the ILECs with which the Registrant
expects to compete.

* Access Charges. Over the past few years, the FCC has granted ILECs
significant flexibility in their pricing of interstate special and
switched access services. Under this pricing scheme, ILECs may establish
pricing zones based on access traffic density and charge different prices
for each zone. The Registrant anticipates that this pricing flexibility
should result in ILECs lowering their prices in high traffic density
areas, the probable area of competition with the Registrant. The
Registrant also anticipates that the FCC will grant ILECs increasing
pricing flexibility as the number of interconnections and competitors
increases. On May 7, 1997, the FCC took action in its CC Docket No. 96-262
to reform the current interstate access charge system. The FCC adopted an
order which makes various reforms to existing rate structures for
interstate access designed to move access charges, over time, to more
economically efficient rate levels and structures.

* Universal Service Reform. On May 8, 1997, the FCC released an order in
its CC Docket No. 96-45, which reforms the current system of interstate
universal service support and implements the universal service provisions
of the 1996 Act. The FCC established a set of policies and rules designed
to ensure that low-income consumers and consumers who live in rural,
insular and high-cost areas receive a defined set of local
telecommunications services at affordable rates. This was to be
accomplished in part through expansion of direct consumer subsidy programs
and in part by ensuring that rural, small and high-cost LECs continue to
receive universal service subsidy support. The FCC also created new
programs to subsidize connection of eligible schools, libraries and rural
health care providers to telecommunications networks. These programs were
to be funded by assessment of eligible revenue of nearly all providers of
interstate telecommunications carriers, including the Registrant.

The Registrant, like other telecommunications carriers which provide
interstate telecommunications services, is required to contribute a
portion of its end-user telecommunications revenue to fund universal
service programs. These contributions became due beginning in 1998 for all
providers of interstate telecommunications services. Such contributions
are assessed based on intrastate, interstate and international end user
telecommunications revenue. Contribution factors vary quarterly and
carriers, including the Registrant, are billed each month. Contribution
factors for the first three quarters of 1998 have been determined by the
FCC as follows: first quarter, second quarter, and third quarter factors
are 3.19%, 3.14%, and 3.08% respectively, for the high cost and low income
funds (interstate and international end-user telecommunications revenue)
and 0.72%, 076%, and 0.75%, respectively, for the schools, libraries and
rural health funds (intrastate, interstate and international end-user
communications revenue). In addition, many state regulatory agencies have
instituted proceedings to revise state universal fund contribution
requirements, which will vary from state to state. Several parties have
appealed the FCC's May 8th order, and these appeals have been consolidated
in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The Registrant cannot
predict the outcome of these proceedings. In addition, a number of
telecommunications companies have filed a petition for a stay with the
FCC, which is currently pending.

Pursuant to the Universal Service Order, all carriers were required to
submit a Universal Service Fund worksheet in September, 1997. The
Registrant has filed its Universal Service Fund worksheet. The amounts
remitted to the Universal Service Fund may be billed to the Registrant's
customers. If the Registrant does not bill these amounts to its customers,
its profit margin may be less than if it had elected to do so. However, if
the Registrant elects to bill these amounts to its customers, customers
may reduce their use of the Registrant's services, or elect to use the
services provided by the Registrant's competitors, which may have a
material adverse effect upon the Registrant's business, financial
condition, or results of operations. The Registrant is eligible to qualify
as a recipient of universal service support if it elects to provide
facilities-based service to areas designated for universal service support
and if it complies with federal and state regulatory requirements to be an
eligible telecommunications carrier. The FCC's decisions in CC Docket No.
96-45 could have a significant impact on future operations of the
Registrant.

Current Registrant Certifications. The Registrant has received Section 214
authorization from the FCC allowing it to engage in business as a resale
and facilities-based international carrier.

State Regulation

The Registrant believes that most, if not all, states in which it may
operate as a local telecommunications provider, require certification or
other authorization to offer intrastate services. Many of the states in
which the Registrant may operate are in the process of addressing issues
relating to the regulation of CLECs.

In some states, existing state statutes, regulations or regulatory policy
may preclude some or all forms of local service competition. However,
Section 253 of the 1996 Act prohibits states and localities from adopting
or imposing any legal requirement which may prohibit, or have the effect
of prohibiting, the ability of any entity to provide any interstate or
intrastate telecommunications service. The FCC has the authority to
preempt any such state or local requirements to the extent necessary to
enforce the 1996 Act's open market entry requirements. States and
localities may continue to regulate the provision of interstate
communications services and require carriers to obtain certificates or
licenses before providing service, if such requirements do not constitute
prohibitive barriers to market entry.

Some states in which the Registrant operates are considering legislation
which could impede efforts by new entrants in the local services market to
compete effectively with ILECs. For example, some state PSCs and PUCs are
currently considering actions to preserve universal service and promote
the public interest. Such actions may impose conditions on the certificate
issued to an operating Registrant which would require it to offer service
on a geographically widespread basis through (i) the construction of
facilities to serve all residents and business customers in such areas,
(ii) the acquisition from other carriers of network facilities required to
provide such service, or (iii) the resale of other carriers' services. The
Registrant believes that state PSCs and PUCs have limited authority to
impose such requirements under the 1996 Act. The imposition of such
conditions by state PUCs, however, could increase the cost to operating
companies of providing local exchange services or otherwise affect an
operating company's flexibility to offer services.

The Registrant has intrastate authority for the provision of resold
interexchange services through certification or registration in every
state where it is required. The Registrant has CLEC certifications pending
in several states. There can be no assurance that the Registrant will
receive the authorizations it may seek in the future to the extent it
expands into other states or seeks to provide additional services. In most
states, the Registrant is required to file tariffs setting forth the
terms, conditions and prices for services which are classified as
intrastate.

Local Interconnection. The 1996 Act imposes a duty upon all ILECs to
negotiate in good faith with potential interconnectors to provide
interconnection to the ILEC networks, exchange local traffic, make
Unbundled Network Elements ("UNE') available and permit resale of most
local services. If negotiations do not succeed, the Registrant has a right
to seek state PUC arbitration of any unresolved issues. The Registrant has
begun the process of negotiating interconnection arrangements in several
states in its targeted region. Arbitration decisions involving
interconnection arrangements in several states have been challenged in
lawsuits filed in United States District Court by the affected ILECs.

Compliance with Environmental Provisions

Registrant believes that it complies in all material respects with current
pertinent federal, state, and local provisions relating to the protection
of the environment and does not believe that continued compliance would
require any material capital expenditure.

PERSONNEL

As of the date of this Report, the Registrant and its subsidiaries
employed 249 full-time and part-time employees in its long distance
telecommunication service, of whom 52 were engaged in sales activities, 27
in customer service and support, 67 in technical and field services, 30 in
data processing, and 73 in general and administrative activities. The
Registrant also utilizes the services of approximately 220 independent
sales agents. The Registrant considers its relations with its employees to
be satisfactory.

ITEM 2. Properties
On November 15, 1993, and December 28, 1993, the Registrant entered into
leases for an aggregate of approximately 3,500 square feet of space at 744
Broad Street, Newark, New Jersey, for its upgraded switching equipment.
The lease ran from January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1998, with an
option to renew the lease through August 31, 2002. This option has been
exercised. The annual rental of $54,720 also requires the tenant to pay a
proportionate share of any increase in the "Consumer Price Index", U. S.
City Average over the base year.

On December 1, 1993, the Registrant entered into a five-year lease, which
expired on November 30, 1998, for approximately 20,000 square feet of
space from a partnership in which two of the partners were directors and
major shareholders of the Registrant. One of the partners is no longer a
director. The lease has been renewed on a month to month basis at an
annual rate of $73,467.75. The lease has a 120 day prior written notice by
either party to terminate. This space is used for warehousing and office
space for the technical support employees. The lease requires the payment
of any increase in operating expenses and real estate taxes over the base
year.

On February 22, 1994, the Registrant entered into a lease, subsequently
modified on April 15, 1994, for approximately 17,700 square feet of space
at 150 Clove Road, Little Falls, New Jersey to be used as sales, executive
and administrative offices. The lease provided for a rent holiday until
July, 1995, after which the annual rental would be approximately $360,000.
The lease is for five years and ten months and has been amended by a
second lease modification agreement dated February 9, 1995 whereby the
Registrant leased approximately 6,700 additional square feet of space at
the same location at an additional annual rental of $121,707 for the first
four years and $138,154 for the next year and two months. The modified
agreement also extended the term of the existing lease for an additional
two years to August 14, 2002 at a then annual rental of $563,063. The
lease requires the payment of the tenant's proportionate share of
operating expenses and real estate taxes increased over the base year.

On January 30, 1997, the Registrant entered into a third modification of
its lease for approximately 16,640 square feet of additional office space
at its existing facility at 150 Clove Road, Little Falls, New Jersey. The
annual rental on the additional space was $357,760 per annum from July 1,
1997 through February 14, 1998, is $366,800 per annum from February 15,
1998 through August 14, 2000, and will be $382,720 per annum from August
15, 2000 through August 14, 2002. In addition, the Registrant is obligated
for its proportionate share of increases in real estate taxes and
operating expenses over the base year.

On November 1, 1996, the Registrant entered into a lease for approximately
8,300 square feet of space at 40 Rector Street, New York City, New York,
to be used for a second switching facility. The term of the lease is
for fifteen years and ten months from the date of commencement which was
February 1, 1998. Rental payments are $133,184 per annum for the first
five years after commencement, $166,480 per annum for the next five years,
and $183,128 per annum for five years and ten months. The lease requires
the payment of the tenant's proportional share of increased operating
expenses and real estate taxes over the base year.

On November 8, 1996, a subsidiary of the Registrant entered into a lease
for approximately 2,300 square feet of office space in New York City, New
York at an annual rental of approximately $75,900. The lease commenced
February 1, 1997 and is for sixty three (63) months. The lease requires
the payment of the tenant's proportionate share of increased operating
expenses and real estate taxes over the base year.

On February 6, 1998, the Registrant entered into a lease for approximately
5,000 square feet of space at 28 W. Flagler Street, Miami, Florida. The
term of the lease is 15 years, commencing February 1, 1998. The annual
rental fee is $106,618, with an annual adjustment based on the Revised
Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers Index, capped at a maximum of 3%
increase over the prior years rental payment. In addition, the Registrant
is liable for its proportionate share of increases in real estate taxes
and operating expenses over the base year. Due to the recent restructuring
(See ITEM 7 -Overview), the Registrant is eliminating the Miami switch,
and is seeking a sub-tenant or early termination of this lease.

On September 1, 1998 the Registrant entered into a five year lease,
commencing September 1, 1998 leasing 3,008 square feet of space at 500
Cypress Creek Road, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Rental payments are $48,128
per annum from September 1, 1998 to August 31, 1999, $50,554 from
September 1, 1999 to August 31, 2000, $53,061 from September 1, 2000 to
August 31, 2001, $55,708 from September 1, 2001 to August 31, 2002 and
$58,506 from September 1, 2002 to August 31, 2003. The lease requires the
payment of the tenant's proportional share of increased operating expenses
and real estate taxes over the base year. Due to the recent restructuring
(See ITEM 7 -Overview), the Registrant is eliminating the Fort Lauderdale
sales office and is seeking a sub-tenant or early termination of this
lease.

Certain of the leases contain options to renew for various periods at
rentals to be determined by the then prevailing fair market rental rates
for similar real estate in the area.

ITEM 3. Pending Legal Proceedings
The Registrant brought suit in Civil Court of the City of New York, County
of New York against a customer, Community Network Services, Inc. d/b/a
Telecommunity, for the recovery of an account receivable of $37,917 plus
interest, attorneys fees and damages. Defendant asserted a counter claim
against the Registrant in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,
County of New York alleging breach of contract and seeks compensatory and
punitive damages of $1,300,000. The Registrant believes the counter suit
is without merit and is vigorously defending this action.

ITEM 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth
quarter of Fiscal 1999.

PART II

ITEM 5. Market for Registrant's Common Stock and Related Security Holder 
Matters

Common Stock

The Registrant's authorized capital stock consists solely of 20,000,000
shares of Common Stock. Holders of the Registrant's Common Stock are
entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time
to time by the Board of Directors in its discretion from funds legally
available therefor, subject to any prior dividend rights of holders of
Preferred Stock. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for
each share held. There is no right to cumulative voting. Upon liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of the Registrant, subject to any prior
liquidation rights of holders of Preferred Stock, the holders of Common
Stock are entitled to receive a pro rata share of all remaining assets
available for distribution to stockholders. The Common Stock has no
pre-emptive or other subscription rights, and there are no conversion or
redemption rights with respect to such shares. Effective on July 1, 1996,
the Registrant distributed 1,873,420 shares of Common Stock in connection
with a 2-for-1 stock split of all outstanding shares as of June 15, 1996.
Effective on July 15, 1998, the Registrant distributed 4,207,887 shares of
Common Stock in connection with a 2-for-1 stock split of all outstanding
shares as of June 30, 1998. As of the date of this report, there were 9,122,774
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, held by 788 persons, as
reported by the Registrant's transfer agent.

Price Range of the Common Stock

The Registrant's Common Stock is traded in the over-the-counter market on
the NASDAQ National Market System under the Symbol TELU. The following
table sets forth, for the quarterly fiscal periods indicated, the high and
low closing sales prices for the Registrant's Common Stock in such market,

ITEM 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations.

The following discussion is presented to assist in assessing the changes 
in financial condition and performance of the Registrant for the fiscal 
year ended January 1, 1997 ("Fiscal 1997"), January 31, 1998 (Fiscal 
1998) and January 31, 1999 (Fiscal 1999). The following information 
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related 
notes and other detailed information regarding the Registrant included 
elsewhere in this report and should not be construed to imply management's 
belief that the results, causes, or trends presented will necessarily 
continue in the future. Certain information contained below and elsewhere 
in this, including information with respect to the Registrant's plans and 
strategy for its business, are "forward-looking statements."

Overview

The Registrant is a leading regional facilities-based ICP servicing both
the commercial and wholesale marketplace. Total-Tel is an established
company which has been in existence since 1959. The Registrant began
offering interexchange telecommunications services in January, 1983. Gross
revenues have increased from approximately $30 million in the Fiscal year
ended January 31, 1995 ("Fiscal 1995") to approximately $137 million for
Fiscal 1999. This growth has been achieved through internal efforts, and
not as a result of acquisitions.

The Registrant currently owns three long-distance switches, in New York,
Newark, and Miami. The Registrant also has a NOC that monitors and
controls its network. The Registrant sells its services through three
sales groups: a field retail sales force, independent agent sales force,
and the wholesale sales force.

With the management changes made in the fourth quarter of 1999, the focus
of the Registrant was changed from national expansion to focus on further
penetration into the Northeastern, USA market. This decision led to a
restructuring of the Registrant's business, eliminating the sales offices
in Florida, Georgia, Washington D.C. and the United Kingdom, as well as
the switch in Miami, Florida. This restructuring also led to the
elimination of the expenses related to the national expansion. The
Registrant has recorded expenses of $2,368,000 to cover the costs related
to the restructuring.

The Registrant's principal expenses consist of: direct cost of sales,
operating costs, and depreciation. Direct cost of sales consist of access
fees, line installation expenses, switch expenses, transport expenses, and
local and long-distance expenses. Operating costs are comprised of the NOC
expenses, selling and marketing costs, and general and administrative
costs.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FISCAL 1999 AS COMPARED TO FISCAL 1998

Revenues

Net sales of telecommunications services and systems for the fiscal year
ended January 31, 1999 were approximately $137,283,000, an increase of
approximately $13,997,000, or 11.4% over the approximately $123,286,000 of
net sales in Fiscal 1998. These revenues were comprised of retail sales of
approximately $72,556,000 and wholesales revenues of approximately
$64,727,000. The Registrant billed approximately 978,971,000 minutes in
Fiscal 1999 as compared to approximately 862,479,000 minutes in Fiscal
1998, an increase of 116,492,000 minutes or 13.5%. Due to the competitive
nature of the long distance communications industry, the average price for
a minute of domestic retail traffic continued to decrease. In Fiscal 1999,
this decrease was approximately 4%.

Net retail sales for Fiscal 1999 were approximately $72,556,000, an
increase of approximately $7,251,000, or 11.1%, over the approximately
$65,305,000 billed in Fiscal 1998. Retail billed minutes were
approximately 628,780,000, an increase of approximately 63,866,000
minutes, or 11.3%, over the retail minutes of approximately 564,914,000
billed in Fiscal 1998.

Net wholesale (carrier) sales for Fiscal 1999 were approximately
$64,727,000, an increase of approximately $6,746,000, or 11.6%, over the
approximately $57,981,000 billed in Fiscal 1998. Billed wholesale minutes
amounted to approximately 350,191,000, an increase of approximately
52,625,000 minutes, or 17.7%, over the billed wholesale minutes of
approximately 297,566,000 billed in Fiscal 1998. There was a change in the
sales mix from the lower priced domestic traffic to higher priced
international traffic. International carrier traffic increased 86,719,000
minutes or approximately 79.9% to approximately 195,264,000 minutes.
Domestic minutes decreased approximately 34,093,000 or approximately 18.0%
to approximately 154,927,000 minutes.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for Fiscal 1999 were approximately $111,500,000, an increase
of approximately $12,414,000, or 12.5%, over the approximately $99,086,000
of cost of sales in Fiscal 1998. Included in cost of sales are direct line
costs, usage charges and the direct costs of the Registrant's switches and
Network Operating Center ("NOC"). The increase in cost of sales was
primarily due to sales volume increases, accounting for approximately
$10,667,000 of the total increase. Cost reductions due to access reform
and gained network efficiencies of approximately $800,000 were offset by
the higher price paid for the change in the carrier sales mix to higher
cost wholesale international traffic of approximately $800,000. The
balance of the increase in cost of sales was due to the addition of the
Miami switch, approximately $392,000; increase in salary, wages and fringe
benefits of approximately $936,000; increased depreciation expense of
$444,000; increased recruiting expense of approximately $102,000;
increased consulting expenses of approximately $127,000; and increases in
other operations expenses of approximately $50,000. These increases were
offset by the elimination of the services department which offered
telephone equipment for sale. This saved approximately $304,000 in costs.
The increases in salaries and wages, recruiting and consulting were the
result of the planned expansion into the national market. As a result of
management changes made late in Fiscal 1999, a planned expansion has been
curtailed and the expenses incurred in Fiscal 1999 have been substantially
reduced.

Selling, General and Administrative:

Selling, general and administrative expenses for Fiscal 1999 increased to
approximately $28,912,000, an increase of approximately $6,829,000, or
30.9%, over the approximately $22,083,000 in Fiscal 1998. This increase
was primarily due to expenses incurred in anticipation of the planned
expansion of Registrant into new markets and the "Revision" litigation.
These expenses were one-time charges to Registrant, and are not expected
to be continued in the next fiscal year. Among these charges, the legal
expense related to the recently settled "Revision" litigation amounted to
approximately $1,700,000. Increased expenses relating to the expansion
plans included the cost of new sales offices and recruiting costs in
Florida, Georgia, Washington D.C., Boston and the United Kingdom of
approximately $895,000; increased consulting fees incurred to rebuild the
infrastructure of the registrant of approximately $506,000; recruiting
fees of approximately $198,000 incurred in hiring additional support
staff. Increased spending in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 included
increased salaries, wages and fringe benefits of approximately $717,000;
increased depreciation expense of approximately $156,000; increased
building rent of approximately $190,000; increased utilities, telephone
and insurance costs of approximately $122,000; an increase in annual 
accounting services of approximately $86,000; increased advertising and 
promotion of approximately $615,000; increased commission expense, related 
to the increased sales volumes, of approximately $817,000; increased 
cost of equipment rentals of approximately $111,000; increased travel and
entertainment expense of approximately $115,000; an increase in the amount
of donations to charitable causes of approximately $70,000: an increase in
the reserve for bad debts of approximately $462,000; and increases in
other expenses of approximately $69,000. Since the end of Fiscal 1999, the
Registrant has curtailed its expansion plans and taken steps to roll back
to eliminate most of the salaried positions created in Fiscal 1999.

Restructuring Expense

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, the Registrant recorded a
restructuring charge of approximately $2,368,000 related to the adoption
by the Registrant of a formal action plan for restructuring its focus of
operations. The restructuring was adopted in an effort to concentrate the 
registrant's efforts on the Northeastern United States market. Elements of 
the Registrant's restructuring plan include eliminating the sales offices in 
Florida, Atlanta, Georgia, Washington D.C. and the United Kingdom, as 
well as the Miami switch.

Asset write-downs incurred in connection with the restructuring included a
charge of approximately $1,300,000 associated with the planned disposal of
the Miami switch and switch site, a charge of approximately $703,000
associated with the termination costs to reduce employee headcount and
sales offices, a charge of approximately $265,000 for the cost associated
with the balance of the Fort Lauderdale lease, and a charge of
approximately $100,000 to write off line installation costs associated
with the Florida network.

Stock Compensation Expense

Stock Compensation expenses for Fiscal 1999 decreased to approximately
$424,000, a decrease of approximately $145,000, or 25.5%, from the
approximately $569,000 charged in Fiscal 1998. This decrease is due to the
cancellation of certain shares of Common Stock granted in prior years to
employees who were terminated in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1999.

Other Income and Expense

Total other income and expense for Fiscal 1999 decreased to approximately
$62,000, a decrease of approximately $215,000, or 77.6%, from the
approximately $277,000 experienced in Fiscal 1998. Included in other
income for Fiscal 1998 was a one-time gain from insurance proceeds paid
upon the death of a former officer of Registrant. Interest income and
interest expense, which are two of the components included relatively
constant from year to year.

Net loss for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1999 of approximately
$3,418,000 represents a decrease of approximately $4,512,000 from the net
income of approximately $1,094,000 reported in Fiscal 1998. Despite an
increase of approximately $1,583,000 in gross margin to approximately
$25,783,000, the added expense of the Revision litigation, approximately
$1,700,000; and the expenses relating to the proposed national expansion
of the Registrant (including new sales offices, consulting, recruiting and
headcount additions) totaling approximately $4,500,000, were the main
factors in the reduction of earnings. The recent changes in the management
of the Registrant have brought about an elimination of a substantial
portion of these expenses. For the foregoing reasons, a loss per share of
$0.50 (basic) was realized in Fiscal 1999, a decrease of $0.68 per common
share (basic) from the earnings per share (basic) $0.18 posted in Fiscal
1998.

FISCAL 1998 AS COMPARED TO FISCAL 1997

Net sales of telecommunications services and systems in Fiscal 1998 were
$123,286,028 as compared to $89,325,921 in Fiscal 1997, representing
approximately a $33,960,000 increase, or 38%.

The continued growth in revenues in Fiscal 1998 is largely attributable to
the rapid expansion of the Registrant's sales to other carriers along with
aggressive internal sales and marketing efforts. The Registrant completed
the installation of its upgraded DEX 600 switch at its new facility in
Newark, New Jersey in the second quarter of Fiscal 1995, which increased
transmission capabilities significantly and was designated to allow for
substantial future expansion.

The Registrant also completed installation of a DEX 600E MEGAHUB switch at
its new facility in New York City which should double the Registrant's
current revenue capacity. This facility became operational in July, 1997.

The Registrant is currently in the process of bringing on line a DEX 600E
MEGAHUB switch at its facility in Miami, Florida. This site will increase
revenue capacity for the Eastern Seaboard as well as serve as an
international gateway to South America. This site should be operational in
the second quarter of Fiscal 1999.

TotalTel had operating income of $1,547,574 in Fiscal 1998 and operating
income of $653,241 in Fiscal 1997. The operating income represents the 
income before interest income, interest expense, other income, other 
expense and provision for income taxes.

For Fiscal 1998, the Registrant billed approximately 862,479,000 minutes
of calls as compared to approximately 616,990,000 minutes of calls for the
prior fiscal year, an increase of approximately 245,489,000 minutes or
39.8%.

Cost of sales includes line costs, operations costs and purchase of phone 
systems for resale. Cost of sales for Fiscal 1998 increased approximately 
$32,257,000 or 48.3% as compared to the prior fiscal year. This increase was 
unfavorable in relation to the 38.0% increase in sales volume for the period 
and is attributable to having a higher mix of lower margin wholesale sales and
competitive pricing pressure in the industry. Line costs for Fiscal 1998 were 
$94,492,000, an increase of $30,657,000 or 48.0% over the prior year. The 
increase in line cost, was attributable primarily to the substantially 
increased sales volume of the Registrant. The balance of cost of sales 
was for phone system sales. The operating expense components are switch 
and field technician salaries, utilities, rent and depreciation which 
totaled $4,142,000 for Fiscal 1998, an increase of $1,148,000 or 38.3%. 
This increase was primarily due to the additions of the New York switch 
and a new Network Operations Center.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately
$3,779,000 or 20.6% for Fiscal 1998 as compared to the prior fiscal year.
The increase was primarily due to increased salaries of $3,282,626 or
49.9%, increased commissions of $839,000 or 18.4%. The increase in
salaries results from the buildup of infrastructure in Product
Development, MIS, Customer Service, and Sales. The buildup is to serve the
anticipated growth. The substantial increase in commission, is directly
attributable to the sales volume growth.

Stock compensation expense decreased approximately $2,970,000. In Fiscal
1997, options to purchase 218,000 shares of common stock had their
expiration dates extended to January 17, 2002. This caused a non-cash
charge of approximately $3,482,000. In 1998, stock options to purchase
only 16,500 stock options were remeasured giving rise to a $433,000
expense item.

Other income of $359,000 consists of insurance proceeds upon the death of
a former officer and director of the Registrant.

Interest income for Fiscal 1998 decreased approximately $39,000 as
compared to Fiscal 1997 primarily due to a reduction in the funds
available for investment.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At January 31, 1999, the Registrant had working capital of approximately
$1,261,000 as compared to approximately $7,936,000 at January 31, 1998, a
decrease of $6,675,000. The decrease in working capital in fiscal 1999 was
primarily attributable to a decrease in accounts receivable (net of
doubtful accounts) of approximately $1,615,000, a decrease in prepaid and
other current assets of approximately $696,000, a decrease of
approximately $22,000 in notes receivable, an increase in accounts
payable of approximately $4,343,000, an increase in other accrued
liabilities of $1,706,000, a restructuring reserve of approximately
$2,128,000 and an increase in the current portion of long term debt of
approximately $39,000. This decrease was partially offset by an increase
in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,635,000 and an increase
in deferred income taxes of approximately $1,268,000. The current ratio of
1.0 to 1, decreased from the 1.4 to 1 ratio experienced in fiscal 1998.
The Registrant continues to maintain a strong liquid position with cash
and cash equivalents and investments available for sale of approximately
$6,602,000 representing 24.1% of current liabilities.

The cash flow statement of the Registrant for Fiscal 1998 indicated an
increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,635,000.
Non-cash adjustments (depreciation, amortization, reserve for bad debt,
deferred income taxes and non-cash compensation expense) of approximately, 
restructuring, tax benefit of excercised options,
$3,469,000 and net changes in assets and liabilities of approximately
$6,965,000 added back to the net loss of approximately $3,418,000 provided
net cash from operations of approximately $7,016,000. Cash used in
investing activities amounted to approximately $4,955,000, of which
approximately $4,727,000 were used for the purchase of capital additions
and approximately $281,000 was used for the purchase of additional
circuits to build out the network. These additions were partially offset
by net repayments on notes receivable of approximately $22,000 and
proceeds from the sale of securities and fixed assets of approximately
$31,000. The cash flow from financial activities of approximately
$574,000 consisted primarily cash received from the exercise of stock
options of approximately $1,061,000 offset by the repayment of bank
borrowings of approximately $487,000.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures for Fiscal 1999 totaled approximately $4,727,000 and
were financed from funds provided from Registrant's working capital and
cash derived from operations. The capital expenditures were used for the
installation of a switch site in Miami, approximately $2,100,000; LAN/WAN
software and hardware upgrades, $794,000; various improvements to current
switch operations, $1,766,000; with the balance of the expenditures used
for leasehold improvements in the Great Notch office.

The Registrant has an Equipment Facility and Revolving Credit Arrangement
with a major New Jersey bank. The Registrant entered into a modification
of the agreement in March, 1998 and November, 1998. The amended and
restated Equipment Facility and Revolving Credit agreement allows for an
unsecured line of credit of $5,000,000 and $10,000,000 for the purchase of
machinery and equipment. At January 31, 1999, the Registrant had bank
borrowings of $2,092,245. The $10,000,000 facility for equipment has been
terminated in exchange for a waiver from the bank releasing the 
registrant from certain covenants. For further details, see Note 11 to 
the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Inflation

Since inflation has slowed in recent years, the Registrant does not
believe that its business has been materially affected by the relatively
modest rate of price increases in the economy. The Registrant continues to
seek improvements in operations and efficiency through capital
expenditures. Expenditures to improve the signaling system, information
systems and the local area network are expected to result in operating
costs savings which could partially offset any cost increases which may
occur in the future.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The Registrant is not a party to any legal proceedings or the subject of
any claim regarding environmental matters generally incidental to its
business. In the opinion of Management, compliance with the present
environmental protection laws should not have a material adverse effect on
the financial condition of the Registrant

ITEM 7A. Quantitative and Qualitatiave Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the risk of changes in value of a financial
instrument, derivative or non-derivative, caused by fluctuations in
interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. The Registrant's
cash and investments exceed long-term debt; therefore, the exposure to
interest rate risk relates primarily to the marketable securities held by
the Registrant. The Registrant only invests in instruments with high
credit quality where a secondary market exists. The Company does not hold
any derivatives related to its interest rate exposure. The Company also
maintains long-term debt at fixed rates. Due to the nature and amounts of
the Registrant's note payable, an immediate 10% change in interest rates
would not have a material effect in the Registrant's results of operations
over the next fiscal year. The Registrant's exposure to adverse changes in
foreign exchange rates is also immaterial to the consolidated statements
as a whole.

ITEM 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The Financial Statements and Supplementary Data are included under Item 14
of this Report.

ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting 
and Financial Disclosure

Not applicable.

(b) Compensation Pursuant to Plans

In October, 1987, the Registrant adopted its 1987 Stock Option Plan and in
October, 1996, adopted its 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plans").
The Option Plans provide that certain options granted thereunder are
intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of
Section 422A of the United States Internal Revenue Code, while
non-qualified options may also be granted under the Option Plans.
Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of the
Registrant, while non-qualified options may be granted to non-executive
directors, consultants and others as well as employees.

The Option Plans may be administered by the Compensation Committee of the
Registrant's Board of Directors. The Registrant has reserved 1,329,800
shares of Common Stock under the 1987 Option Plan and 600,000 shares of
Common Stock under the 1996 Option Plan for issuance to employees,
officers, directors and consultants of the Registrant. The shares
underlying the options granted prior to July 15, 1994 have been adjusted
for a 10% stock dividend. The shares underlying the options granted prior
to July 1, 1996 have been adjusted to reflect a 2-for-1 stock split, and
options granted prior to July 1, 1998 have been adjusted to reflect a
2-for-1 stock split.

No option may be transferred by an optionee other than by will or the laws
of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of an optionee, an
option may be exercised only by him. In the event of termination of
employment other than by death or disability, the optionee will have one
month (subject to extension not to exceed an additional two months) after
such termination during which he may exercise his option. Upon termination
of employment of an optionee by reason of death or permanent total
disability, his option remains exercisable for one year thereafter to the
extent it was exercisable on the date of such termination. No similar
limitation applies to non-qualified options.

Options under the Option Plans must be granted within 10 years from the
effective date of the respective Option Plan. Incentive stock options
granted under the Option Plans cannot be exercised later than 10 years
from the date of grant. Options granted under the Option Plans permit
payment of the exercise price in cash or by delivery to the Registrant of
shares of Common Stock already owned by the optionee having a fair market
value equal to the exercise price of the options being exercised, or by a
combination of such methods of payment. Therefore, an optionee may be able
to tender shares of Common Stock to purchase additional shares of Common
Stock and may theoretically exercise all of his stock options with no
additional investment other than his original shares.

Any option which expires unexercised or that terminates upon an employee's
ceasing to be employed by the Registrant become available once again for
issuance under the Option Plans.

ITEM 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
On December 1, 1993, the Registrant leased warehouse space in Belleville,
New Jersey, from a partnership in which two directors and major
shareholders are partners and a former director and major shareholder is
also a partner. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 1999, the
Registrant paid rent of $65,482.12 to the partnership. The lease expired
on November 30, 1998 and has been renewed on a month to month basis at an
annual rate of $73,467.75, subject to 120-day prior written termination
notice requirement. Registrant believes such premises are leased on terms
not less favorable to Registrant than in an arm's length transaction.

Jay J. Miller, a Director of the Registrant, has provided various legal
services for the Registrant during Fiscal 1999. As of January 31, 1999 the
Registrant had invoices payable to Mr. Miller totaling $158,755. The
Registrant believes that Mr. Miller's fees were reasonable for the
services performed and were no less favorable to the Registrant than could
have been obtained from an unrelated third party.

Leon Genet, a Director of the Registrant, has provided agent services for
Total-Tel through his wholly-owned Registrant, LPJ, Inc. During Fiscal
1999, LPJ, Inc. was paid commissions of $117,136. The commissions paid to
LPJ, Inc. were computed on the same basis as other agents retained by the
Registrant.

Walt Anderson, a Director of the Registrant, sits on the Board of
Directors' for several of the Registrant's competitors, as described in
ITEM 10. The Registrant both purchases and sells services from US Wats and
CTS/Worldexchange. Sales to US Wats and CTS/Worldexchange in Fiscal, 1999
were approximately $722,000 and $2,128,000, respectively. Purchases from
US Wats and CTS/Worldexchange were approximately $443,000 and $1,938,000,
respectively. All transactions were based on competitive terms obtained at
an arm's length basis.

As set forth in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the 
Registrant from time to time has made loans to former executive employees 
and shareholders of the Registrant. Two of the executive employees are no 
longer employed by the Registrant.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Board of Directors and Shareholders
Total-Tel USA Communications, Inc. 
150 Clove Road
Little Falls, New Jersey 07424

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Total-
Tel USA Communications, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 31, 1999 and 
1998, and the related consolidated statements of (loss) earnings and 
comprehensive (loss) income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for 
each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 1999. Our audits 
also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at 
Item 14(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement 
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 
and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating 
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, 
in all material respects, the financial position of Total-Tel USA 
Communications, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 31, 1999 and 1998, 
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the 
three years in the period ended January 31, 1999 in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, such 
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic 
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in 
all material respects the information set forth therein.

TOTAL-TEL USA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

    Total-Tel USA Communications, Inc. ("Total-Tel"), with its wholly-
    owned subsidiaries Total-Tel, Inc., Total-Tel USA, Inc., Total-Tel 
    Southeast Inc., Total-Tel Carrier Services, Inc., Total-Tel Sarasota, 
    Inc., and Total-Tel Services, Inc. (collectively, the "Company") 
    operates as a switch based resale common carrier providing twenty-four 
    hour, seven day a week, domestic and international long distance 
    telecommunications service to customers throughout the United States. 
    The Company's principal customers are primarily businesses and other 
    common carriers.

 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements 
    include the accounts of Total-Tel USA Communications, Inc. and its 
    subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All intercompany 
    transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidated 
    financial statements.

    Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost. 
    Depreciation and amortization is being provided by use of the straight-
    line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. 
    Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the term of the 
    lease or the useful lives of the asset.

    The estimated useful lives of the principal classes of assets are as 
    follows:

    Classification                               Years

    Machinery and equipment                      5 - 10
    Office furniture, fixtures and equipment     7 - 10
    Vehicles                                     3 -  5
    Leasehold improvements                       2 - 10
    Computer equipment and software              5 -  7

    Deferred Line Installation Costs - The Company defers charges from other 
    common carriers which cover the cost of installing telephone 
    transmission facilities (lines). Amortization of these costs is provided 
    using the straight-line method over the estimated life (five years) of 
    the lines.

    Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated 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, the disclosure of contingent assets 
    and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported 
    amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual 
    results could differ from those estimates.

    Concentrations of Credit Risk - The Company sells its telecommunications 
    services and products to customers operating primarily in the 
    northeastern region of the United States. The Company performs ongoing 
    credit evaluations of its customers as it generally does not require 
    collateral. Allowances are maintained for potential credit losses and 
    such losses have been within management's expectations.

    Earnings per Share - Basic earnings per share is represented by net 
    earnings available to common shareholders divided by the weighted-
    average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted 
    earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if 
    securities or stock options were exercised or converted into common 
    stock during the period, if dilutive (see Note 15).

    Stock Split - On July 1, 1996, the Company distributed 1,873,420 shares 
    of common stock in connection with a 2 for 1 stock split of all 
    outstanding shares as of June 15, 1996. On July 15, 1998, the Company 
    distributed 4,207,887 shares of common stock in connection with a 2 for 
    1 stock split in the form of a stock dividend of all outstanding shares 
    as of June 30, 1998 (including approximately 66,700 shares attributable 
    to stock options exercised during 1999 prior to the split). All per 
    share and number of shares data have been restated to reflect these 
    stock splits.

    Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid 
    investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less 
    to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on 
    hand, demand deposits and money market accounts.

    Fair Value of Financial Instruments - For cash and cash equivalents, the 
    carrying value is a reasonable estimate of its fair value. The estimated 
    fair value of publicly traded financial instruments is determined by the 
    Company using quoted market prices, dealer quotes and prices obtained 
    from independent third parties. For financial instruments not publicly 
    traded, fair values are estimated based on values obtained from 
    independent third parties or quoted market prices of comparable 
    instruments. The fair value of the debt was determined based on interest 
    rates that are currently available to the Company for issuance of debt 
    with similar terms and remaining maturities for debt issues that are not 
    traded on quoted market prices. However, judgment is required to 
    interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. 
    Accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts 
    that could be realized in a current market exchange.

    The carrying values and fair values of financial instruments are as 
    follows:

</TABLE>


    Long-Lived Assets - The Company accounts for the impairment of long-
    lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of by evaluating 
    the carrying value of its long-lived assets in relation to the operating 
    performance and future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying 
    businesses when indications of impairment are present. Long-lived assets 
    to be disposed of, if any, are evaluated in relation to the net 
    realizable value.

    Comprehensive Income - The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting 
    Comprehensive Income," in June 1997, which was effective for years 
    beginning after December 31, 1997. This statement established standards 
    for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in 
    financial statements. The Company adopted SFAS 130 as of February 1, 
    1998, and has restated prior years' presentations in the accompanying 
    financial statements.

    New Accounting Pronouncements - The Financial Accounting Standards Board 
    issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging 
    Activities," in June 1998, which is effective for fiscal years beginning 
    after June 1999. This statement establishes accounting and reporting 
    standards for derivative instruments, including certain instruments 
    embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities. At this time, 
    management has not determined the effect, if any, that the 
    implementation of this Statement will have on the Company's financial 
    position and results of operations.

 3. SEGMENT REPORTING

    The Company has adopted the SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of 
    an Enterprise and Related Information" in the fiscal year ending January 
    31, 1999. This statement establishes standards for the way in which 
    public business enterprises report information about operating segments 
    in annual financial statements.

    The Company sells telecommunication services to two distinct segments: a 
    retail segment, consisting primarily of small to medium size businesses 
    within the Northeastern United States, and a wholesale segment, with 
    sales to other telecommunications carriers throughout North America and 
    Europe.

    In addition to direct costs, each segment is allocated a proportion of 
    the Company's switch and operating expenses. The accounting policies of 
    the segments are the same as those described in the summary of 
    significant accounting policies. The allocation of expenses is based 
    upon the minutes of use flowing through the Company's switching network. 
    There are no intersegment sales. Assets are held at the consolidated 
    level and are not allocable to the operating segments. The Company 
    evaluates performance on operating earnings of the two business 
    segments.

    Summarized financial information concerning the Company's reportable 
    segments is shown in the following table.

    as operating leases. Several of the underlying agreements contains 
    certain incentives eliminating payments at the inception of the lease. 
    Lease incentives are amortized on a straight-line basis over the entire 
    lease term. Under terms of these leases, the Company is required to pay 
    its proportionate share of increases in real estate taxes, operating 
    expenses and other related costs.

    The Company leases warehouse space in Belleville, New Jersey from a 
    partnership in which two of the partners were directors and major 
    shareholders of the Company. One of the partners is no longer a 
    director. During the fiscal years ended January 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997,

    time the option is granted. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only 
    to employees. Nonqualified Stock Options may be granted to employees as 
    well as directors, independent contractors and agents, as determined by

    were granted prior to September 1, 1997. All options available to be 
    granted under the 1996 Plan, totaling 226,150 at January 31, 1999, must 
    be granted by October 10, 2006. At January 31, 1999, shares under the 
    1996 Plan had not been registered by the Company. The options currently 
    outstanding have terms that expire between five to ten years from the 
    date of grant and vest over a period of three to four years from the

    Compensation expense related to the nonqualified stock options was 
    $6,006, $136,265, $57,219 for the years ended January 31, 1999, 1998 and 
    1997, respectively.

    Compensation expense related to the remeasurement of nonqualified 
    and incentive stock options was $0, $433,126, and $3,482,344 for the 
    years ended January 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

    The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provision of SFAS No. 
    123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Had compensation cost 
    for the Company's plans been determined based on the fair value at the 
    grant date for awards in the fiscal years ended January 31, 1999, 1998 
    and 1997, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the 
    incremental effect on the Company's net earnings and basic and diluted 
    earnings per share would have been $280,260, $0.04 and $0.04 for 1999; 
    $162,935, $0.03 and $0.02 for 1998 and $543,990, $0.09 and $0.08 for 
    1997.

    The fair value of the option grants is estimated based on the date of 
    grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following 
    weighted-average assumptions used for grants in fiscal 1999, 1998 and 
    1997: dividend yield of 0.00% for the three years; expected volatility 
    of 64.00%, 67.82% and 33.00%, respectively; risk-free interest rate of 
    5.29%, 6.53% and 6.72%, respectively; and expected lives of 5 years for 
    each of the three years.

10. NOTES RECEIVABLE FROM SHAREHOLDER

    In 1993, the Company made a $25,000 noninterest-bearing, unsecured loan 
    to an executive employee and shareholder of the Company. In 1995, the 
    Company made two additional unsecured loans to the same employee in the 
    amounts of $55,000 and $60,000, with interest at the prime rate 
    published in the Wall Street Journal, and 9% per annum, respectively. In 
    1996, the three notes, together with unpaid interest, were combined into 
    one note with a principal balance of $117,281, with interest at 8% per 
    annum, payable in semi-monthly installments for seven-and-one-half 
    years, commencing February 7, 1996. This note was repaid with interest 
    in January, 1998.

    In 1993, the Company made a separate $100,000 unsecured loan to the 
    above mentioned employee and shareholder for the purchase of the 
    Company's common stock. This note is shown as a reduction in 
    shareholder's equity as of January 31, 1997. This note was repaid in 
    full as of January 31, 1998.

    In 1996, the Company made a $97,605 noninterest-bearing, secured loan to 
    an executive employee and shareholder of the Company. The note is 
    payable on demand. Between 1997 and 1999, payments have been made 
    against the note, bringing the balance as of January 31, 1999 to 
    $45,402. On January 5, 1999, the employee resigned from the Company.

    In 1998, the Company made a $50,000 secured loan to another executive 
    employee and shareholder of the Company, with interest at 8.50% per 
    annum. The loan is due and payable on August 11, 1999.

11. LONG-TERM DEBT

    On August 23, 1996, the Company entered into an Equipment Facility and 
    Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Facility") with a major New Jersey 
    bank. This Facility provides the Company with an unsecured line of 
    credit of $4,000,000 and a $6,000,000 facility for the purchase of 
    machinery and equipment, primarily telecommunications switching 
    equipment, and is secured by the Company's machinery and equipment.

    The Company had drawn down $2,000,000 of the $6,000,000 in the fiscal 
    year ended January 31, 1997. In the fiscal year ended January 31, 1998, 
    the Company converted the balance to a term loan (the "term loan") 
    payable in monthly installments of $55,923 including principal and 
    interest payable over a term of 60 months. The remaining balance on this 
    term loan as of January 31, 1999 was $2,092,245, of which $526,361 was 
    classified as current. The interest rate on the term loan is 7.71%. The 
    term loan is secured by the assets of the Company.

    During 1999, the Company has obtained a letter of credit for a deposit 
    on a lease totaling $89,440.

    On March 16, 1998, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated 
    Equipment Facility and Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Amended 
    Facility") with the same bank. This Amended Facility increases the 
    unsecured line of credit to $8,000,000 and the Facility for the purchase 
    of machinery and equipment to $5,000,000.

    On November 1, 1998 the Company entered into an Amendment to the Amended 
    and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Second Amended Facility") with the 
    same bank. This Amendment increased the Facility for the purchase of 
    machinery and equipment to $10,000,000 and decreased the unsecured line 
    of credit to $5,000,000. The Company currently has no amounts borrowed 
    under the Second Amended Facility. The interest under the Second Amended 
    Facility is at the bank's prime rate or, at the Company's option, 225 
    basis points above the LIBOR rate.

    The Second Amended Facility requires the Company to meet certain 
    covenants. Among the covenants contained in the second amended Facility 
    are ratios and balances as to minimum tangible net worth, current ratio,
    debt to net worth, debt service coverage, and fixed charge coverage (all 
    as defined). Other covenants include the level of capital expenditures, 
    acquisitions of capital stock, the incurrence of new long-term 
    indebtedness (as defined), and new liens on assets, as well as the 
    maintenance of certain other ratios. At January 31, 1999, the Company 
    was not in compliance with the covenants of the Second Amended Facility 
    concerning minimum tangible networth and debt service coverage.

                       ==========

12. STOCK GRANTS

    The Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, awards to 
    management personnel shares of its common stock at par value. These 
    shares vest over a period of three to five years. During 1999, the 
    grants were all issued out of treasury stock. The Company awarded 
    220,850 shares, 30,000 shares, and 0 shares of its common stock and 
    recorded compensation expense of $417,582, $122,625 and $107,800 for the 
    years ended January 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

    Shares cancelled by the Company due to termination or resignation for 
    the years ended January 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 totaled 111,900, 1,800 
    and 0, which amounts have been excluded from the above compensation 
    expense.

13. RESTRUCTURING

    During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company recorded a 
    restructuring charge of approximately $2,367,910 related to the adoption 
    by the Company of a formal action plan for restructuring its focus of 
    operations. The restructuring was adopted in an effort to concentrate 
    the Company's efforts on the northeastern United States market. Elements 
    of the Company's restructuring plan include eliminating the sales 
    offices in Florida, Atlanta, Georgia, Washington D.C. and the United 
    Kingdom, as well as the Miami switch.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES  

    The Company is a defendant in a law suit, filed by one of its customers 
    for alleged breach of contract, seeks compensatory and punitive damages 
    of $1,300,000. The Company believes that the suit is completely without 
    merit and intends to vigorously defend it. However, the outcome cannot 
    be determined at this time.

15. EARNINGS PER SHARE

    Basic earnings per share was computed by dividing net earnings by the 
    weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during 
    each year. Diluted earnings per share was computed on the assumption 
    that all stock options converted or exercised during each year or 
    outstanding at the end of each year were converted at the beginning of 
    each year or at the date of issuance or grant, if dilutive.

    The reconciliation of the earnings and common shares included in the 
    computation of basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per 
    common share for the years ended January 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 is as 
    follows:

    included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for 1999 
    because to do so would have been antidilutive. For 1998 and 1997 there 
    were no items whose effect would have been antidulitive.

(e) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreements hereby amended and restated in
its entirety to read as follows:

1.01 Equipment Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions herein set
forth, during the Equipment Facility Commitment Period, the Bank agrees to
make available to the Borrowers, on a joint and several basis, an
equipment finance facility (the "Equipment Facility"), under which the
Bank shall make advances (each an "Equipment Loan" and collectively the

issued in replacement or substitution of the 1996 Equipment Facility.
Amounts borrowed under the Equipment Facility and repaid may not be
reborrowed. The amounts outstanding under the Equipment Facility shall be
evidenced by the Replacement Equipment Facility/Term Note. During the

00/100 DOLLARS ($10,000,000.00), such amount being hereinafter referred to
as the "Maximum Equipment Facility Principal Amount". If the aggregate
principal amount of Equipment Loans outstanding at any time under the
Equipment Facility exceeds the Maximum Equipment Facility Principal
Amount, then the Borrowers shall immediately repay to the Bank the amount
of such excess.

(g) Section 1.05 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety to read as follows:

1.04 Conversion of Equipment Loan to a Term Loan. On the first Business
Day after six (6) months following the initial borrowing under the
Equipment Facility pursuant to Section 1.03 hereof (the "Automatic
Conversion Date"), the entire (and not less than the entire aggregate
outstanding principal balance of the Equipment Loans shall convert to a
single term loan (such Loans, as so converted, the "Term Loan"); provided,
however, that in no event shall the Automatic Conversion Date be beyond
the Equipment Facility Expiration Date. Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the conditions set forth
in Section 6.02 hereof), by irrevocable written notice given to the Bank
by the Borrowers no later than 3 Business Days prior to the proposed
Permitted Conversion Date, the Borrowers may convert the entire (and not
less than the entire) aggregate outstanding principal balance of the

the Borrowers be permitted to so convert the Equipment Loans if at the
time of such conversion the aggregate principal balance thereof is less
than $2,000,000.00. The notice delivered pursuant to the foregoing
sentence shall state the effective date of such conversion, which in no
event shall be beyond the Equipment Facility Expiration Date (the

refinanced as of the Conversion Date at the interest rate basis (plus any
applicable margin as set forth in Section 1.05 hereof) selected by the
Borrowers in the notice of conversion delivered pursuant to this Section
1.04. If the Borrowers select a Permitted Conversion Date which shall
cause any then outstanding Equipment Loan that is a LIBOR Loan to be
deemed consolidated into the Term Loan on any date other than the last day
of the then expiring Interest Period applicable thereto, then the
Borrowers shall indemnify the Bank for any loss or expense described in
Section 4.05 hereof that is incidental to such consolidation.

(h) Section 1.08 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety to read as follows:

1.08 The Revolving Credit Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Bank agrees to make available to the Borrowers, on a joint and
several basis, a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit
Facility") under which the Bank shall make advances to the Borrowers from
time to time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in an aggregate
principal amount outstanding at any one time of up to FIVE MILLION 00/100

Maximum Revolving Credit Principal Amount, the Borrowers shall immediately
repay to the Bank the amount of such excess.

(j) The Original Credit Agreement is hereby amended to include the
following:

5.03 Secondary Offering. In the event that Total-Tel Comm commences a
secondary equity offering (a "Secondary Offering"), and such Secondary
Offering is completed prior to the Equipment Facility Expiration Date, or,

its entirety to read as follows:

8.09 Tangible Net Worth. Total-Tel Comm shall not permit its Tangible Net
Worth at any time to be less than $18,000,000, measured on a consolidated
basis no less frequently than quarterly. As used herein, "Tangible Net
Worth" means, at any date (i) the total assets of Total-Tel Comm which
would be shown as assets on a consolidated balance sheet of Total-Tel Comm
prepared in accordance with GAAP less (ii) the total liabilities of

herein, "EBITDA" means, at any time, the earnings (excluding any
extraordinary or unusual items and non-operating earnings adjustments)
before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, determined
in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, and "CPLTD plus Interest
Expense" means, at any time, current maturities of all Indebtedness which

A. Terms of Note.

1. Interest Payments. The principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan
(as defined in the Credit Agreement) evidenced by this replacement note
(together with any attachments hereto and any amendments and modifications
hereto in effect from time to time, this "Note") shall bear interest at
the rates set forth in the Credit Agreement and accrued interest shall be
due and payable by the undersigned in accordance with the provisions
thereof.

2. Computation of Interest. Interest hereunder shall be computed daily on
the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. If
the due date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law,
interests shall be payable for such extended time.

3. Payment Terms. All payments made hereunder shall be made on or before
10:00 a.m. on the due date thereof, in immediately available funds and in
lawful currency of the United States of America and free and clear of, and
without deduction or withholding for, any taxes or other payments.
Payments shall be deemed made when delivered to the Bank at its offices
set forth in this Note or at such other office of the Bank as the Bank
shall notify the undersigned of in writing.

4. Incorporation by Reference. This Note is the Revolving Credit Note
referred to in the Credit Agreement and is subject to the terms and
conditions thereof, which terms and conditions are incorporated herein,
including, without limitation, terms pertaining to definitions,
representations, warranties, covenants, events of default and remedies.
Any capitalized term used herein without definition shall have the

5. Bank Records of Advance. The Bank may enter in its business records the
date and the amount of each advance of a Revolving Credit Loan, each
conversion from one interest rate basis to another and each payment made
pursuant to this Note and the Credit Agreement. The Bank's records of such
advance, conversion or payment shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
conclusively binding upon the undersigned. In the event the Bank gives
notice or renders a statement by mailing such notice or statement to the
undersigned, concerning any such advance, conversion or payment, or the
amount of principal and interest due on this Note, the undersigned agree
that, unless the Bank receives a written notification of exceptions to
such a statement within 10 calendar days after such statement or notice is
mailed, the statement or notice shall be an account stated, correct and

other Credit Documents are cumulative and concurrent, and are not
exclusive of any other remedies available to the Bank. No failure or delay
on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right, power, remedy or
privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the
undersigned, jointly, severally and unconditionally promise to pay to the

Amendment to Amended and Restated Equipment Facility and Revolving Credit

(together, the "Credit Agreement") and that are then outstanding, together
with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any unpaid costs and

obligation pursuant to said Credit Agreement, in which case such
obligations shall mature and be due and payable on the fifth anniversary
of the date of said conversion (the "Maturity Date").

A. Terms of Note.

1. Payment of Principal. The principal balance of each Equipment Loan
evidenced by this replacement note (together with any attachments hereto
and any amendments or modifications hereof in effect from time to time,
this "Note") shall be due and payable in full on the Expiration Date,
unless the obligations evidenced hereby are converted to a term loan

the principal balance hereunder shall be payable in consecutive monthly
installments in the amounts and on the dates prescribed in Section 1.06 of
the Credit Agreement, with a final installment in the amount of the

2. Interest Payments. The undersigned agree to pay to the Bank, interest,
in arrears, on the outstanding principal balance hereunder at the rates
and on the dates set forth in the Credit Agreement, until the entire
principal balance hereunder, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, is paid in full.

3. Computation of Interest. Interest hereunder shall be computed daily on
the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. If
the due date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law,
interest shall be payable for such extended time.

4. Payment Terms. All payments made hereunder shall be made on or before
10:00 a.m. on the due date thereof, in immediately available funds and in
lawful currency of the United States of America and free and clear of, and
without deduction or withholding for, any taxes or other payments.
Payments shall be deemed made when delivered to the Bank at its offices
set forth in this Note or at such other office of the Bank as the Bank
shall notify the undersigned of in writing.

5. Incorporation by Reference. This Note is the Replacement Equipment
Facility/Term Note referred to in the Credit Agreement and is subject to
the terms and conditions thereof, which terms and conditions are
incorporated herein, including, without limitation, the terms pertaining
to payment, definitions, representations, warranties, covenants, events of
default and remedies. Any capitalized term used herein without definition
shall have the meaning set forth in the Credit Agreement.

6. Bank Records of Advance. The Bank may enter in its business records the
date and the amount of each advance and payment of Equipment Loans made

of such loans to a term loan pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The Bank's
records thereof shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusively
binding upon the undersigned. In the event the Bank gives notice or
renders a statement by mailing such notice or statement to the
undersigned, concerning any such advance, conversion or payment, or the
amount of principal and interest due on this Note, the undersigned agree
that, unless the Bank receives a written notification of exceptions to
such a statement within 10 calendar days after such statement or notice is

received by the Bank within ten (10) days of the due date thereof, the
undersigned shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay the Bank a late
charge of five percent (5%) of the overdue payment (but in no event to be
less than $25.00 nor more than $2,500.00). Any such late charge assessed
is immediately due and payable.

8. Default Rate. At the Bank's option, interest will be assessed on any
principal which remains unpaid at the maturity of this Note, whether by
acceleration or otherwise, or upon and following an Event of Default, at a
rate which is 400 basis points (4%) higher than the rate otherwise charged
with respect thereto (the "Default Rate") provided that at no time shall
the amounts owed by the undersigned to the Bank pursuant to any judgments
entered in favor of Bank with respect to this Note, or any other Credit
Document.

B. Remedies.

1. Generally. Upon and following an Event of Default, the Bank, at its
option, may exercise any and all rights and remedies it has under this
Note, the other Credit Documents and under applicable law, including,
without limitation, the right to charge and collect interest on the
principal portion of the amounts outstanding hereunder at the Default
Rate. Upon and following an Event of Default hereunder, the Bank may

applicable law by action at law, in equity, or other appropriate
proceeding, including, without limitation, an action for specific
performance to enforce or aid in the enforcement of any provision
contained herein or in any other Credit Document.

2. Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver. The remedies hereunder and under the
other Credit Documents are cumulative and concurrent, and are not
exclusive of any other remedies available to the Bank. No failure or delay
on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right, power, remedy or
privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, power, remedy or privilege preclude any
other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right,
power, remedy or privilege.

equal to Tenant's Proportionate Share as defined in Section (i) of the
Fundamental Lease Provision Section of the Operating Expenses for each
Operating Year hereunder. It is acknowledged and understood that the
Additional Rent commences on the Lease Commencement Date of this Lease. If
an Operating year ends after the expiration or termination of this Lease,
the Additional Rent payable hereunder shall be prorated to correspond to
that portion of the Operating Year occurring within the term of this
Lease.

3.03 Operating Statement. Landlord or its agent shall furnish to Tenant,
prior to the commencement of each Operating Year, a written statement
setting forth Landlord's estimate of Tenant's Additional Rent (the
"Estimated Operating Statement"). Landlord shall deliver to the Tenant a
budget for the first year's estimated operating expenses and the
proportion the Tenant will be required to pay beginning on the Lease
Commencement Date. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the first day of each
month as Additional Rent, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the
Landlord's estimate of the same. If, however, Landlord shall furnish any
such estimate subsequent to the commencement of any year during the term
of this Lease, then until the first day of the month following the month
in which such estimate is furnished to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, on the first day of each month, an amount equal to the monthly
sum payable under this section in respect of the last month of the
previous Operating Year. Promptly after such estimate is furnished to
Tenant, Landlord shall give notice to Tenant stating whether the previous
installments of Additional Rent were more or less than the sums which
should have been made for such Operating Year. In the event there is a
deficiency, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof within ten (10) days after
demand therefore. In the event there shall have been an over payment,
Landlord shall permit Tenant to credit the amount thereof against
subsequent payments of Additional Rent.

If there shall be any increase or decrease in the estimated Operating
Expenses for any Lease Year, whether during or after such year, Landlord
shall furnish to Tenant a revised statement and the Additional Rent shall
be adjusted and paid or refunded, as the case may be. This revised
statement will be the basis for the Estimated Operating Statement for the
next year's Additional Rent allocation to each Tenant.

Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Operating Year,
Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement pertaining to the actual
expenses for said year (the "Operating Statement"). Tenant has a right to
request an audit of the records at Tenant's expense. If the Operating
Statement shows that the sums paid by Tenant, pursuant to the Estimated
Operating Statement, exceed Tenant's Proportionate Share, Landlord shall
promptly either refund to Tenant the amount of such excess Additional Rent
paid by Tenant or permit Tenant to credit the amount thereof against
subsequent payments of Additional Rent under this Article; and if such
statement shows that the sums paid by Tenant were less than Additional
Rent due hereunder, Tenant shall pay the amount of such deficiency within
ten (10) days after written demand therefore.

Each Operating Statement given by Landlord, shall be conclusive and
binding upon Tenant (a) unless within thirty (30) days after the receipt
thereof, Tenant shall notify Landlord that it disputes the accuracy of
said Operating Statement, specifying the particular respects in which the
Operating Statement is claimed to be incorrect and (b) if such dispute
shall not have been settled by agreement, either party may submit the
dispute to arbitration in accordance with Chapter 682, Florida Statutes.
The arbitration shall take place in Broward County, Florida and shall be
held in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
A panel of three (3) arbitrators shall be selected by the parties to the
dispute from a panel selected by the American Arbitration Association and
the award of the three arbitrators shall be final and non-appealable and
judgment may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the
event the parties are unable to agree on three (3) arbitrators, each party
shall select one (1) arbitrator from the panel and the two (2) arbitrators
selected shall select the third arbitrator. The matter must be submitted
within sixty (60) days after receipt of each operating Statement, and
pending the determination of such dispute by agreement or arbitration as
aforesaid, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after receipt of such
Operating Statement, pay Additional Rent in accordance with Landlord's
statement, without prejudice to Tenant's position. If the dispute shall be
determined in Tenant's favor, Landlord shall forthwith pay to Tenant the
amount of Tenant's overpayment of Additional Rent resulting from
compliance with the Operating Statement. In no case, however, shall Tenant
delay or withhold payment of Fixed Rent and Additional rent pending
resolution of a dispute with regard to Operating Expenses.

ARTICLE 4
SECURITY DEPOSIT

Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sums set forth in Section (k) of
the Fundamental Lease Provisions Section, the receipt of which is
acknowledged by Landlord as security, for the full and faithful

performed prior to the expiration date hereof shall be continuing

termination of this Lease. Landlord may deliver the Security to any
purchaser of Landlord's interest in the Premises and thereupon Landlord
shall be discharged of and from any further liability with respect to the
same.

and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises without hindrance, ejection
or molestation by Landlord or any other person lawfully claiming through
or under Landlord, subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of this Lease
and to Superior Leases and Superior Mortgages. This covenant shall be
construed as a covenant running with the land and is not, nor shall it be
construed as, a personal covenant of Landlord, except to the extent of
Landlord's interest in this Lease and only so long as such interest shall
continue. Thereafter, this covenant shall be binding only upon Landlord's
successors in interest, to the extent of their respective interest herein,
as and when they shall have acquired the same and for so long as they

by operation of law, or otherwise (a) assign or otherwise transfer this
Lease or the term and estate hereby granted, or offer or advertise to do
so, (b) sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or offer or advertise to
do so, or allow the same to be used or occupied by anyone other than
Tenant, or (c) mortgage, pledge, encumber, or otherwise hypothecate this
Lease or the Premises or any part thereof in any manner whatsoever;
provided, however, that portions of the Leased Premises may be sublet only
upon the express prior written approval of the Landlord, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any violation of the provisions
hereinabove set forth shall constitute a default in this Lease and,
thereupon, Landlord shall have the option to cancel the same and proceed
in accordance with the provisions set forth herein.

9.02 Rights of Landlord. If this Lease is assigned, whether or not in
violation of the provisions herein, Landlord may collect rent from the
assignee. If the Premises or any part thereof are sublet or used or
occupied by anyone other than Tenant, whether or not in violation of this
Lease, Landlord may collect rent from the subtenant or occupant. In either
event, Landlord may apply the net amount collected to the Fixed Rent and
Additional Rent herein reserved, but no such assignment, subletting,
occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions
of this Section or the acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupancy
as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the performance of its
obligations hereunder. In the event of the assignment, mortgaging,
subletting, or use or occupancy by others (whether or not in violation of
this Lease) the same shall not in any way be considered to relieve Tenant
from acting in accordance with the terms and prohibitions set forth in
Section 9.01. Reference in this Lease to use or occupancy by others (that
is, anyone other than Tenant) shall not be construed as limited to
subtenants and those claiming under or through subtenants but as including
also licensees and others claiming under or through Tenant, immediately or
remotely. Tenant covenants that, notwithstanding any assignment or
transfer, and notwithstanding the acceptance of Fixed Rent and/or
Additional Rent by Landlord from an assignee, transferee, or any other
party, it shall remain fully liable for the payment of the Fixed Rent and
Additional Rent and for the other obligations of this Lease to be
performed or observed by Tenant.

9.03 Permissible Transfers. The provisions of Section 9.01 (a) shall apply
to a transfer of a majority of the stock of Tenant as if such transfer
were an assignment of this Lease; but said provisions shall not apply to
transactions with a corporation into or with which Tenant is merged or
consolidated or to which substantially all of Tenant's assets are
transferred, or to any corporation which controls or which is controlled
by Tenant, or is under common control of Tenant as long as the new entity
has substantially the same or greater net worth as Tenant. Tenant and the
Guarantor shall remain liable for the obligation of this Lease during the
term of this Lease including Option Periods.

9.04 Assignment Request. In the event Tenant desires to assign or sublease
this Lease or any part thereof, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written
request for Landlord's consent to such assignment or subletting. The
request shall be accompanied by the name and address of the proposed
assignee or subtenant and a copy of the fully executed assignment,
conditioned only upon the approval of Landlord, together with the proposed
assignee's proposed use of the Premises, current and detailed financial
information and affidavit on the proposed assignee or subtenant and such
other independent information as Landlord may reasonably request. Based
upon such information obtained by Landlord, Landlord may, in its sole
reasonable discretion, grant Tenant right to assign or sublet this Lease,
withhold from Tenant the right to assign or sublet this Lease or seek
additional information with respect to the proposed assignee or subtenant.

If Landlord grants its consent, it shall have the right to require Tenant
to pay Landlord a sum of money equal to any rent or other consideration
paid to Tenant by such assignee/subtenant in excess of any rent which is
then being paid or which, under the terms of this Lease, is to be paid by
Tenant to Landlord plus any other profit or gain realized by Tenant upon
such assignment. All sums payable by Tenant under this paragraph shall be
paid to Landlord as Additional Rent immediately upon receipt thereof by
Tenant.

public liability insurance to be maintained by Tenant increased so that
the amount adequately and reasonably protects Landlord's interest.

18.02 Repair Provisions. In the event of loss of, or damage to, the
Premises or the Building by fire or other casualty, the rights and
obligations of the parties hereto shall be as follows:

a. If the Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged by fire or 
other casualty, Tenant shall give prompt notice thereof to Landlord, 
and Landlord, upon receiving such notice, shall proceed promptly and 
with reasonable diligence, subject to Force Majeure and a reasonable 
time for adjustment of insurance losses, to repair, or cause to be 
repaired, such damage in a manner designed to minimize interference 
with Tenant's occupancy (but with no obligation to employ labor at 
overtime or other premium pay rates). If the Premises or any part 
thereof shall be rendered untenantable by reason of such damage, 
whether to the Premises or the Building, the Fixed Rent and 
Additional Rent Charges shall proportionately abate for the period 
from the date of such damage to the date when such damage shall have 
been repaired for the portion of the Premises rendered tenantable. 
If, however, prior to the date when all of such damage shall have 
been repaired, any part of the Premises so damaged shall be rendered 
tenantable and shall be used or occupied by Tenant or any Person or 
Persons claiming through or under Tenant, then the amount by which 
the Fixed Rent and Additional Rent and Charges shall abate shall be 
equitably apportioned for the period from the date of any such use.

b. If, as a result of fire or other casualty more that one-half (_) 
of the Building Rentable Area is rendered untenantable, Landlord 
within 60 days from the date of such fire or casualty may terminate 
this Lease by notice to Tenant, specifying a date, not less than 20 
nor more than 40 days after the giving of such notice, on which the 
Term shall expire as fully and completely as if such date were the 
date herein originally fixed for the expiration of the Term. If the 
Premises are damaged as a result of fire or other casualty and if the 
damage to the Premises (but not including Tenant's Installations or 
Alterations) is so extensive that such damage cannot be substantially 
repaired within 180 days from the date of the fire or other casualty 
(except for Force Majeure), either Landlord or Tenant within 30 days 
from the date of such fire or other casualty may terminate this Lease 
by notice to the other, specifying a date, not less than 20 nor more 
than 40 days after the giving of such notice, on which the Term shall 
expire as fully and completely as if such date were the date 
originally fixed for the expiration of the Term. If either Landlord 
or Tenant terminates this Lease, the Fixed Rent and Additional Rent 
and Charges shall be apportioned as of the date of such fire or other 
casualty. If neither Landlord nor Tenant so elects to terminate this 
Lease, then Landlord shall proceed to repair the damage to the 
Building and the damage to the Leased Premises (but not Tenant's 
Installations or Alterations), if any shall have occurred, and the 
Fixed Rent and Additional Rent and Charges shall meanwhile be 
apportioned and abated all as provided in subsection (a). If, 
however, such damage is not repaired and the Premises and the 
Building restored to reasonably the same condition as they were prior 
to such damage within 270 days from the date of such damage (such 270 
day period to be extended by the period of any Force Majeure plus a 
reasonable time for adjustment of insurance losses), Tenant, within 
30 days from the expiration of such 270 day period (as the same may 
be extended), may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord, 
specifying a date not more than 60 days after the giving of such 
notice on which the Term shall expire as fully and completely as if 
such date were the date herein originally fixed for the expiration of 
the Term.

c. If the Premises shall be rendered untenantable to the extent of 
fifty (50%) percent or more by fire or other casualty during the last 
six months of the Term, Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease 
upon notice to the other party given within 90 days after such fire 
or other casualty specifying a date, not less than 20 days nor more 
than 40 days after the giving of such notice, on which the Term shall 
expire as fully and completely as if such date were the date 
originally fixed for the expiration of the Term. If either Landlord 
or Tenant terminates this Lease pursuant to this subsection, the 
Fixed Rent and Additional Rent and Charges shall be apportioned as of 
the date of such fire or casualty.

d. Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any of 
Tenant's Installations or Alterations or any other personal property 
of Tenant and no damages, compensation or claim shall be payable by 
Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance arising 
from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises or of 
the Building, but the foregoing shall not be deemed to relieve 
Landlord of liability for the gross act or omission or willful 
misconduct of Landlord its agents, etc., or its breach of any 
covenant of this Lease.

e. The provisions of this Section shall be considered an express 
agreement governing any instance of damage or destruction of the 
Building or the Premises by fire or other casualty, and any law now 
or hereafter in force providing for such a contingency in the absence 
of express agreement shall have not application.

ARTICLE 19
EMINENT DOMAIN

If the whole or a substantial part of the Premises or the Building shall
be taken or condemned or is under threat of being taken by any
governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, then
the term of this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date when title
vests in such governmental authority, and Tenant shall have no claim
against Landlord or the condemning authority for any portion of the amount
that may be awarded as damages as a result of such taking or condemnation
or for the value of any unexpired term of the Lease. Tenant may make a
separate claim against the condemning authority for a separate award for
the value of any unexpired term of the Lease, Tenant's tangible personal
property and trade fixtures and for consequential damages as may be
allowed by law, provided the same shall be abated on the date when such
title vests in such governmental authority. If less than a substantial
part of the Premises is taken, or condemned or is under threat of being
taken by any governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or
purpose, monthly rent shall be equitably adjusted on the date when title
vests in such governmental authority, and the Lease shall otherwise
continue in full force and effect. For purposes of this Article, a
substantial part of the Premises shall be considered to have been taken if
more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises are unusable by
Tenant. Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease (whether or not the
Premises shall have been condemned), if Landlord elects to demolish the
remainder of the Building.

ARTICLE 20
SURRENDER

On the last day of the term of this Lease, or upon any earlier termination
of this Lease, or upon any re-entry by Landlord upon the Premises, Tenant
shall quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord "broom-clean" and in
good order, condition and repair, except for ordinary wear and tear and
such damage or destruction as Landlord is required to repair or restore
under this Lease, and Tenant shall remove all of the Tenant's Property
therefrom except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease. Except as
permitted by the terms of this Lease or by law, no termination of this
Lease prior to the expiration date shall affect Landlord's right to
collect Fixed Rent and Additional Rent for any period prior to the
effective date of termination. If Tenant remains in possession after the
expiration date hereof (a) Tenant shall be deemed a tenant at sufferance,
(b) Tenant shall pay two hundred percent (200%) of the Fixed Rent and
Additional Rent last prevailing hereunder, (c) there shall be no renewal
or extension of this Lease by operation of law, and (d) the tenancy at
sufferance may be terminated upon fifteen (15) days' notice from Landlord.

ARTICLE 21
CONDITIONS OF LIMITATION

21.01 Bankruptcy of Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall file a voluntary
petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or an involuntary
petition alleging an act of bankruptcy or insolvency shall be filed
against Tenant under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or whenever a
petition shall be filed by or against Tenant under the reorganization
provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Act or under the provision of
any law of like import, or whenever a petition shall be filed by Tenant
under the arrangement provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Act or
under the provisions of any law of like import, or whenever a permanent
receiver of Tenant, or of or for the property of Tenant shall be
appointed, then Landlord if such event occurs without the acquiescence of
Tenant at any time after the event continues for sixty (60) days, may give
Tenant a notice of intention to end the term of this Lease at the
expiration of five (5) days from the date of service of such notice
whereupon this Lease, and the term and estate hereby granted, whether or
not the term shall theretofore have commenced, shall thereupon terminate
with the same effect as if the day were the expiration date of the Lease;
however, Tenant shall remain liable for all damages set forth in this
Lease.

21.02 Default Provisions.

a. Each of the following events shall be deemed to be, and is referred 
   to in this Lease as, an "Event of default":

   1. A default by Tenant in the due and punctual payment of any Fixed 
      Rent or Additional Rent or Charges which continues for more than 
      ten (10) days; Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such 
      deficiency; or

   2. The neglect or failure of Tenant to perform or observe any of the
      terms, covenants or conditions contained in this Lease on Tenant's 
      part to be performed or observed other than those referred to in 
      paragraph 21.02 a.1. above which is not remedied by Tenant within 
      30 days after Landlord shall have given to Tenant written notice 
      specifying such neglect or failure, provided that such thirty (30) 
      day period shall be extended for the time period reasonably necessary 
      to diligently cure such neglect or failure if such cure cannot 
      reasonably be accomplished during such thirty (30) day period and 
      Tenant has commenced to cure the default; or

   3. The assignment, transfer, mortgaging or encumbering of this Lease 
      or the subletting of the Premises in a matter not permitted by 
      Article 9; or

b. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, pursuant to subsection (a), 
   Landlord shall have the right, at its election, then or at any time 
   thereafter, either:

   1. To give Tenant written notice that this Lease will terminate on a 
      date to be specified in such notice, which date shall not be less 
      than three (3) days after such notice, and on the date specified 
      in such notice Tenant's right to possession of the Premises shall 
      cease and this Lease shall thereupon be terminated, but Tenant shall 
      remain liable as provided in paragraph 22.01; or

   2. Without demand or notice, to re-enter and take possession of the
      Premises, or any part thereof, and repossess the same as of Landlord's
      former estate and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under 
      Tenant and remove the effects of both or either, by summary 
      proceedings, or by action at law or in equity or by force (if 
      necessary) or otherwise, without being deemed guilty of any manner 
      of trespass and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent 
      or preceding breach of covenant.

If Landlord elects to re-enter under paragraph 21.02 b.2., Landlord may
terminate this Lease, or, from time to time, without terminating this
Lease, may relet the Premises, or any part thereof, as agent for Tenant
for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other
terms and conditions as Landlord may deem advisable, with the right to
make alterations and repairs to the Premises.

No such re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord shall
be construed as an election on Landlord's part to terminate this Lease
unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant under
paragraph 21.02 b.1. above or unless the termination thereof be decreed by
a court of competent jurisdiction.

ARTICLE 22
DAMAGES

22.01 Tenant Liability. If Landlord terminates this Lease pursuant to
Article 21, Tenant shall remain liable (in addition to accrued
liabilities) to the extent legally permissible for:

(i) the sum of:

    (A) all Fixed Rent and Additional Rent provided for in this Lease 
        until the date this Lease would have expired had such termination 
        not occurred, and;

    (B) any and all reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in re-entering
        the Premises not including any Excess Rent charged by Landlord to 
        new tenant, repossessing the same, making good any default of Tenant,
        painting, altering or dividing the Premises, combining the same with 
        any adjacent space for any new tenants, putting the same in proper 
        repair, reletting the same (including any and all reasonable 
        attorney's fees and disbursements and reasonable brokerage fees 
        incurred in so doing), and any and all expenses which Landlord may 
        incur during the occupancy of any new tenant (other than expenses 
        of a type that are Landlord's responsibility under the terms of 
        this Lease), less;

    (C) all Fixed Rent and Additional Rent for the period from the Lease
        Commencement Date to the Rent Commencement Date based upon the 
        rate of both Fixed Rent and Additional Rent described in paragraphs 
        (g) and (h) of the Fundamental Lease Provisions Section, less;

(ii) the net proceeds of any reletting, to the extent that the proceeds
      are less than or equal to the amount due under (i) above.

Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the difference between items (i) and (ii)
above with respect to each month during the Term, at the end of such
month. Any suit brought by Landlord to enforce collection of such
difference for any one month shall not prejudice Landlord's right to
enforce the collection of any difference for any subsequent month. In
addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall pay to Landlord such sums as the
court which has jurisdiction thereover may adjudge reasonable as
attorney's fees with respect to any successful law suit or action
instituted by Landlord to enforce the provisions of this Lease. Landlord
shall have the right, at its sole option, to relet the whole or any part
of the Leased Premises for the whole of the unexpired Term, or longer, or
from time to time for shorter periods, for any rental then obtainable,
giving such concessions of rent and making such special repairs,
alterations, decorations and paintings for any new tenant as Landlord, in
its sole and absolute discretion, may deem advisable. Tenant's liability
as aforesaid shall survive the institution of summary proceedings and the
issuance of any warrant thereunder. Landlord shall be under no obligation
to relet the Leased Premises, but agrees to use its best efforts to do so.

22.02 Rights of Landlord. Suit or suits for the recovery of such damages,
or any installments thereof, or acceleration of all Fixed Rent and
Additional Rent due during the remaining Lease Term, may be brought by
Landlord from time to time at its election, and nothing contained herein
shall be deemed to require Landlord to postpone suit until the date when
the term of this Lease would have expired nor limit or preclude recovery
by Landlord against Tenant of any sums or damages which, in addition to
the damages particularly provided above, Landlord may lawfully be entitled
by reason of any default hereunder on the part of Tenant. The various
rights, remedies and elections of Landlord reserved, expressed or
contained herein are cumulative and no one of them shall be deemed to be
exclusive of the others or of such other rights, remedies, options or
elections as are now or may hereafter be conferred upon Landlord by law.
Landlord is hereby granted a valid security interest to secure payment of
all Fixed Rent and Additional Rent becoming due hereunder and to secure
payment of any loss or damage due to any default by Tenant hereunder and
to secure payment of any loss or damage due to any default by Tenant
hereunder upon all of Tenant's Property and any other personal property of
Tenant which may now or hereafter be installed or placed in the Premises.

22.03 Additional Remedy of Landlord. In the event of a default by Tenant
hereunder during the Free Rent Period, in the event Free Rent is
applicable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, an amount
equal to the Free Rent Subsidy. In the event of a default by Tenant
hereunder following the Free Rent Period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as
Additional Rent, the Free Rent Subsidy multiplied by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of months of the Term minus the number of
months which have elapsed from the Commencement Date through the date of
default, and the denominator of which is the number of months in the Term.

The foregoing is an additional remedy of Landlord and not in lieu of or in
substitution for any other remedy provided in this Lease Agreement or by
law.

ARTICLE 23
BROKER

Landlord and Tenant covenant, warrant and represent that the broker set
forth in Section (l) of the Fundamental Provisions Section (the "Brokers")
was instrumental in bringing about or consummating this Lease. Further,
neither Landlord nor Tenant have had any conversation or negotiations with
any broker except the Broker or Co-broker, if any, concerning the leasing
of the Premises which could give rise to a commission or fee. Both parties
agree to indemnify the other against and from any claims for any brokerage
commissions (except those payable to Broker) and all costs, expenses and
liabilities in connection therewith, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, for any breach of the foregoing.
Landlord shall pay all brokerage commissions due Brokers in accordance
with a separate agreement between Landlord and Brokers.

ARTICLE 24
PARKING

Landlord grants to Tenant the right to use that number of parking spaces
set forth in Section (m) of the Fundamental Provision s Section (the
"Parking Spaces") based upon a first come first serve basis with no
separated tenant designation of parking spaces. During the initial term of
the Lease and any renewal thereof, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay to
Landlord any cost for the use of parking spaces. Landlord reserves control
of the parking lot and spaces and may designate reserved spaces. In
addition, Landlord reserves the right to control the parking areas of the
building by installing control devices and security to limit the use of
the parking lot by non-building Tenants and their invitees and employees.

ARTICLE 25
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES

Each party agrees, at any time and from time to time, as requested by the
other party to execute and deliver to the other a statement certifying
that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there
have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as
modified and stating the modifications), certifying the dates to which the
Fixed Rent and Additional Rent have been paid, stating whether or not, the
other party is in default in performance of any of its obligations under
this Lease, and, if so, specifying each such default and stating whether
or not, any event has occurred which with the giving of notice or passage
of time, or both, would constitute such a default, and, if so, specifying
each such event. Any such statement delivered pursuant hereto shall be
deemed a representation and warranty to be relied upon by the party
requesting the certificate and by others with whom such party may be
dealing, regardless of independent investigation. Tenant also shall
include in any such statements such other information concerning this
Lease as Landlord may reasonably request. If either party fails to
execute, acknowledge or deliver any such statement within fifteen (15)
days after request therefore, the other party hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints the requesting party as its attorney-in-fact,
coupled with an interest, to execute and deliver any such statements for
and on behalf of Tenant.

ARTICLE 26
MISCELLANEOUS

26.01 Merger. Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Landlord has
not made and is not making, and Tenant, in executing and delivering this
Lease, is not relying upon, any warranties, representations, promises, or
statements, except to the extent that the same are expressly set forth in
this Lease. All prior understandings and agreements between the parties
are merged in this Lease which alone fully and completely expresses the
agreement of the parties. No agreement shall be effective to change,
modify, waive, release, discharge, terminate or effect an abandonment of
this Lease, in whole or in part, unless such agreement is in writing, and
is signed by the party against whom enforcement of said change or
modification is sought.

26.02 Notice. Any notice required to be given by either party pursuant to
this Lease, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly
given, rendered or made only if sent by registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, posted in a United States post office station or
an established national courier service addressed to the other party at
the address hereinbelow set forth (unless either party shall give written
notice to the contrary), and shall be deemed to have been given, rendered
or made on the day so mailed.

26.03 Relocation. Tenant agrees that Landlord may relocate Tenant to other
space within the Building containing at least the same amount of rentable
space as contained within the Premises, provided that the cost of
relocating Tenant and the cost of altering the new space to make it
substantially comparable to the Premises is borne by Landlord.

26.04 Non-Waiver. The failure of either party to insist in any one or more
instances upon the strict performance of any one or more of the
obligations of this Lease, or to exercise any election herein contained,
shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment for the future of the
performance of such one or more obligations of this Lease, which shall
continue and remain in full force and effect with respect to any
subsequent breach, act or omission. The receipt by Landlord of Fixed Rent
or Additional Rent with knowledge of breach by Tenant of any obligation of
this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach.

26.05 Parties Bound. The provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and each of their
respective representatives, successors and assigns. Landlord may freely
and fully assign its interest hereunder subject to the rights of Tenant
herein contained.

26.06 Limitations against Landlord. Tenant shall look only to Landlord's
estate in the Property, or the proceeds thereof, for the satisfaction of
Tenant's remedies for the collection of a judgment (of other judicial
process) requiring the payment of money by Landlord in the event of any
default by Landlord hereunder, and no other property or assets of Landlord
or its partners or principals, disclosed or undisclosed, shall be subject
to levy, execution, or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of
Tenant's remedies under or with respect to this Lease, the relationship of
Landlord and Tenant hereunder or Tenant's use or occupancy of the
Premises.

26.07 Definition of Parties. The term "Tenant" shall mean the Tenant
herein named or any assignee or other successor in interest (immediate or

Building or a lease of the Building, so that in the event of any transfer
or transfers of title to the Building or of Landlord's interest in a lease
of the Building, the transferor shall be and hereby is relieved and freed
of all obligations of Landlord under this Lease accruing after such
transfer, and it shall be deemed, without further agreement that such
transferee has assumed and agreed to perform and observe all obligations
of Landlord herein during the period it is the holder of Landlord's
interest in this Lease.

26.08 Survival of Obligations. Upon the expiration or other termination of
this Lease, neither party shall have any further obligation or liability
to the other except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease and
except for such obligations as by their nature or under the circumstances
can only be, or by the provisions of this Lease, may be, performed after
such expiration or other termination; and, in any event, unless otherwise
expressly provided in this Lease, any liability for any payment hereunder
which shall have accrued to or with respect to any period ending at the
time of expiration or other termination of this Lease shall survive the
expiration or other termination of this lease.

26.09 Interference by Tenant. Tenant agrees that the exercise of its
rights pursuant to this Lease or the Exhibits hereto shall not be done in
the manner which would violate Landlord's union contracts affecting the
Building and/or the Property nor create any work stoppage, picketing,
labor disruption or dispute or any interference with the business of
Landlord or any tenant or occupant of the Building.

26.10 Prorations. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. If any provision of this
Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, for
any reason and to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Lease and the application of that provision to other persons or
circumstances shall not be affected but rather shall be enforced to the
extent permitted by law. The table of contents, captions, headings and
titles in this Lease are solely for convenience of reference and shall not
affect its interpretation. This Lease shall be construed without regard to
any presumption or other rule requiring construction against the party
causing this Lease to be drafted. Each covenant, agreement, obligation, or
other provision of this Lease on Tenant's part to be performed, shall be
deemed and construed as a separate and independent covenant, agreement,
obligation or other provision of this Lease not dependent on any other
provision of this Lease. All terms and words used in this Lease,
regardless of the number or gender in which they are used, shall be deemed
to include any other number and any other gender as the context may
require.

26.11 Arbitration. In any case in which it is provided by the terms of
this Lease that any matter shall be determined by arbitration, then such
arbitration shall be in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules

26.12 Attorney's Fees. In the case of either arbitration or litigation,
the prevailing party shall be reimbursed the full and reasonable costs of
arbitration or litigation, including attorney's fees through the Appellate
Level. If, however, the prevailing party does not receive a Judgment for
the entire amount of damages requested in the original pleading or
petition, then attorney's fees shall only be awarded in accordance with a
decision of the arbitrator or judge as the case may be.

26.13 Page Initials. Each page of this document has been initialed by a
representative or attorney for Tenant and Landlord signifying that the
page is part of this final executed Lease Agreement.

26.14 Radon Gas. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when
it has accumulated in a building in sufficient quantities, may present
health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time. Levels of Radon
that exceed Federal and State guidelines have been found in buildings in
Florida. Additional information regarding Radon and Radon testing may be
obtained from your county public health unit.

THIS AGREEMENT shall not be effective until it is executed by both
parties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have duly executed this Lease.

RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

Landlord grants Tenant the right of first offer on contiguous space which
may come available during the term of Tenant's lease. The rate and terms
shall be fair market value. Tenant agrees that the minimum term on the
expansion space must be three (3) years or more and must be coterminous
with existing space. Landlord agrees to negotiate a lease extension on the
existing space to accommodate the three (3) year minimum term. In order to
exercise this option, Tenant shall notify Landlord of their interest in
expanding or Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of a prospective
tenant's interest in such space. Tenant shall have up to five (5) business
days to reply and up to five (5) additional business days to execute a
Lease Addendum mutually agreeable to both parties. If Tenant does not
reply within five (5) business days, it shall be assumed that Tenant
declines the space. If a Lease Addendum mutually agreeable to both parties
is not executed and delivered in the permitted time period, Landlord shall
be free to negotiate with other prospective tenant(s).

RENEWAL OPTION

Provided that Tenant is not in default under any terms and conditions of
this Lease, beyond the applicable notice and cure period, Landlord hereby
grants Tenant the option and right to extend the term of this Lease for
the Premises for one (1) additional period of five (5) years on the same
terms and conditions set forth in this Lease except as relates to the
Fixed Rental which shall be adjusted to 100% of market at the time this
option is exercised. In order to exercise this option, Tenant must give
Landlord written notice not less than 180 days prior to the end of the
Lease term. The Landlord shall furnish Tenant with its determination of
rental rate at least 120 days prior to the date upon which the Tenant must
exercise its option to renew.

Landlord shall indemnify and save harmless Tenant and its parent,
subsidiaries and affiliates and their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents (herein collectively referred to as the
"Indemnities") from and against any and all suits, liabilities,
obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs, charges and expenses,
including reasonable attorney's fees, which may be imposed upon or
incurred by or asserted against Indemnities as a result of or arising out
of Landlord's failure to perform any covenant or agreement required to be
performed by Landlord under this Lease Agreement or caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents and employees.
When the claim is caused by the joint negligence or willful misconduct of
Landlord and Indemnities or Landlord and a third party unrelated to
Landlord, except Landlord's agents or employees, Landlord's duty to
indemnify and save harmless Indemnities shall be in proportion to
Landlord's allocable share of the joint negligence or willful misconduct.

subsidiaries and affiliates and their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents (herein collectively referred to as the
"Indemnities") from and against any and all suits, liabilities,

including reasonable attorneys' fees which may be imposed upon or incurred
by or asserted against Indemnities as a result of or arising out of
Tenant's failure to perform any covenant or agreement required to be
performed by Tenant under this Lease Agreement or caused by the negligence
of willful misconduct of Tenant or its agents or employees. When the claim
is caused by the joint negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant and
Landlord or Tenant and a third party unrelated to Tenant, except Tenant's
agents or employees, Tenant's duty to indemnify and save harmless Landlord
shall be in proportion to Tenant's allocable share of the joint negligence
