                            AMENDMENT TO RESELLER
                         MASTER TERMS AND CONDITIONS

THIS AMENDMENT ("Amendment") is made effective as of October 28, 2003 and
is by and between Avaya Inc., a Delaware corporation with an office at 211
Mount Airy Road, Basking Ridge, New Jersey 07920 ("Avaya" or "Licensor"),
and Farmstead Telephone Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, with an office
at 22 Prestige Park Circle, East Hartford, Connecticut  06108 ("ARS" or
"Licensee").  Capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective
meanings assigned to them in Article I hereof.

                                 BACKGROUND
                                 ----------

Licensor and Licensee have previously signed the Avaya Inc. Reseller Master
Terms and Conditions, together with certain Product Group Attachment(s)
(collectively, the "Reseller Agreement"), which authorized Licensee to
resell certain Avaya products in a certain geographic territory.

Licensee and Licensor now wish to amend the Reseller Agreement to authorize
(in addition to any authorizations originally granted to Licensee under the
Reseller Agreement) Licensee to refurbish and resell used business premises
communications products also known as customer premise equipment (CPE)
manufactured by Licensor or Licensor's predecessor companies, Lucent
Technologies Inc. ("Lucent") or AT&T Corp. or American Telephone and
Telegraph Company (collectively, "AT&T") and to minimize customer confusion
that might otherwise arise as a result of the continued use of the AT&T
name and marks, or the Lucent name or marks, by requiring Licensee to
remove such AT&T or Lucent name and marks and to apply a single distinctive
Avaya mark (the "Licensed Mark") to such product.

                                  AGREEMENT
                                  ---------

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as
follows:

The provisions set forth below are hereby added to the Reseller Agreement,
and shall apply only to the refurbishing and resale of Classic Avaya
Products and any other activities contemplated in this Amendment.  In the
event of a conflict between the terms of the Reseller Agreement and the
terms of this Amendment, this Amendment shall control, but only to the
extent Classic Avaya Products or other activities contemplated in this
Amendment are involved.  All terms and conditions of the Reseller Agreement
shall continue to have full force and effect.

agree to negotiate in good faith whether to extend the license granted in
this Amendment and, if so, the terms and conditions of such an extension,
including a commercially reasonable royalty for the use of the Licensed
Mark. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Licensor nor Licensee shall
have any obligation to enter into such extension.

Licensee in connection with any product or service except as expressly set
forth in this Amendment.

            (b)   The right to use (including the right of Licensor's
      Affiliates to use) the Licensed Mark, either alone or in combination
      with other marks, in connection with the marketing, offer or
      provision of any product or service, including any product or service

ARTICLE VI.  QUALITY CONTROL
             ---------------

      6.1   General. Licensee acknowledges that the Classic Avaya Products
covered by this Amendment must be of sufficiently high quality as to
provide maximum enhancement to and protection of the Licensed Mark and the
good will they symbolize.  Licensee further acknowledges that the
maintenance of high quality Classic Avaya Products is of the essence of
this Amendment and that it will utilize only marketing materials which do
not disparage or place in disrepute Licensor, its businesses or its
business reputation, or adversely affect or detract from Licensor's good
will.

      6.2   Control Specifications. Licensee shall use the Licensed Mark,
only in connection with the refurbishing, remanufacture, marketing,
distribution, promotion, sale and lease of Classic Avaya Products that meet
the Control Specifications.  The Control Specifications shall consist of
Technical Performance and Customer Satisfaction Specifications attached or
referenced in the ARS Program Guidelines hereto or provided to and accepted
by Licensor, and the Marketing Specifications referenced in the ARS Program
Guidelines.  Control Specifications shall be treated as proprietary
information and shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof
referenced in the ARS Program Guidelines.

      6.3   Customer Care Provisions.  The parties recognize that customer
complaints, inquiries, requests, orders, returns and similar communications
regarding the products or services of one of them may be directed by
customers or otherwise transmitted to the other.  The parties agree jointly
to develop and comply with written policies and procedures for handling
such communications, in order to ensure that customer communications are
addressed expeditiously regardless of the initial recipient.

      6.4   Changes to Marketing Specifications.  The Marketing
Specifications referenced in the ARS Program Guidelines hereto may be
reasonably amended, modified or supplemented from time to time by Licensor

Licensee shall comply with such amendments, modifications or supplements.

      6.5   Quality Control Reviews; Right of Inspection.  Licensor shall

Representatives, who shall have the right from time to time but at least
once per calendar quarter, without  notice to Licensee, to conduct during
regular business hours, and without disrupting Licensee's normal business
operations, an inspection, test, survey and review of Licensee's facilities
and otherwise to determine compliance with the applicable Control
Specifications.  At Licensor's request, Licensee agrees to furnish or make
available for inspection to the Quality Control Representatives:  (i)
samples of any Classic Avaya Product that is marketed or provided under the
Licensed Mark for inspections, surveys, tests and reviews to assure
conformance with the applicable Control Specifications; (ii) performance
data in its control relating to the conformance of Classic Avaya Products
with the applicable Control Specifications, and (iii) samples of marketing
materials, product packaging, instruction and warranty materials that use
the Licensed Mark.  Any such data provided to Licensor shall be treated as
proprietary information subject to the confidentiality provisions.
Licensor may independently conduct continuous customer satisfaction surveys
to determine if Licensee is meeting the Control Specifications.  Licensee
shall cooperate with Licensor fully in the distribution of such surveys.
Licensor shall, at the request of Licensee, provide Licensee with copies of
customer surveys used by Licensor to determine if


<PAGE>

and the provisions of Article VII shall apply to such noncompliance.

      6.6   Sponsorship.  Licensee shall not use the Licensed Mark to
sponsor, endorse, or claim affiliation with any event, meeting, charitable
endeavor or any other undertaking without obtaining the express written
permission of Licensor.  Any breach of this provision shall be deemed a
Significant Breach by Licensee.

ARTICLE VII.  REMEDIES FOR NONCOMPLIANCE WITH CONTROL SPECIFICATIONS
              ------------------------------------------------------

      7.1   Initial Cure Period. If Licensor becomes aware that Licensee is
not complying with any Control Specifications, Licensor shall notify
Licensee in writing, setting forth, in reasonable detail, a written
description of the noncompliance and any suggestions for curing such
noncompliance.  Licensee shall then have twenty (20) days after receipt of
such notice (the "Initial Cure Period") to correct or submit to Licensor a
written plan to correct such noncompliance.

      7.2   Second Cure Period. If noncompliance with the Control
Specifications continues beyond the Initial Cure Period, Licensee and
Licensor shall each promptly appoint a representative to negotiate in good
faith actions that may be necessary to correct such noncompliance.  The
parties shall have twenty-five (25) days following the expiration of the
Initial Cure Period (the "Second Cure Period") to agree on corrective
actions.

      7.3   Noncompliance After Second Cure Period. If the noncompliance
with the Control Specifications continues beyond the Second Cure Period,
Licensee shall either:  (i)  cease offering Classic Avaya Products under
the Licensed Mark until it can comply with the Control Specifications; or
(ii) be deemed to be in Significant Breach of this Amendment.

      7.4   Arbitration. In the event any dispute regarding compliance with
Control Specifications continues beyond the Initial and Second Cure Periods
described above, then either Licensor or Licensee may deliver to the other
party an arbitration demand notice or pursue any other rights or remedies
expressly contemplated hereby, notwithstanding its failure to deliver an
arbitration demand notice.  Any such arbitration shall be conducted in
accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

      7.5   Potential Injury to Persons or Property. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that Licensor reasonably determines that any
noncompliance creates a material threat of personal injury or injury to
property of any third party, upon written notice thereof by Licensor to
Licensee, Licensee shall either cease offering Classic Avaya Products under
the Licensed Mark until it can comply with the Control Specifications, or
be deemed to be in Significant Breach of this Amendment.

ARTICLE VIII.  PROTECTION OF LICENSED MARKS AND LICENSED TRADE DRESS
               -----------------------------------------------------

      8.1   Ownership and Rights. Licensee will not contest the validity
of, and agrees not to challenge the ownership or validity of, the Licensed
Mark.  Licensee shall not disparage, dilute or adversely affect the
validity of the Licensed Mark.  Licensee agrees that any and all goodwill
and other rights that may be acquired by the use of the Licensed Mark by
Licensee shall inure to the sole benefit of Licensor.  Licensee will not
grant or attempt to grant a security interest in the Licensed Mark or this
Amendment, or to record any such security interest in the United States
Patent and Trademark Office or elsewhere, against any trademark application
or registration belonging to Licensor.  Licensee agrees to execute all
documents reasonably requested by Licensor to effect further registration
of, maintenance and renewal of the Licensed Mark, and recordal of the
license relationship between Licensor and Licensee and recordal of Licensee
as a Registered User.  For purposes of this Amendment, Licensee shall not
be considered a "related company" under the U.S. Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C.
[SECTION] 1051 et seq.

      8.2   Similar Marks. Licensee further agrees not to register in any
country any Mark resembling or confusingly similar to the Licensed Mark,
and not to use the Licensed Mark or any part thereof as part of its
corporate name, nor use any Mark confusingly similar, deceptive or
misleading with respect to the Licensed Mark.  Licensee further agrees not
to use or register in any country any Mark similar to the Licensed Mark, or
which dilutes the Licensed Mark.  If any application for registration is,
or has been, filed in any country by Licensee which relates to any Mark
which, in the sole opinion of Licensor, is confusingly similar, deceptive
or misleading with respect to the Licensed Mark, or which dilutes the
Licensed Mark, Licensee shall, at Licensor's sole discretion, immediately
abandon any such application or registration or assign it to Licensor. If
Licensee uses any Mark which, in the sole opinion of Licensor, is
confusingly similar, deceptive or misleading with respect to the Licensed
Mark, or which


<PAGE>


dilutes the Licensed Mark, or if Licensee uses the Licensed Mark in
connection with any product, or in connection with any service not
specifically authorized hereunder, Licensee shall, immediately upon
receiving a written request from Licensor, permanently cease such use.

      8.3   Infringement. In the event that Licensee learns of any
infringement or threatened infringement of the Licensed Mark, or any unfair
competition, passing-off or dilution with respect to the Licensed Mark, or
any third party alleges or claims that either the Licensed Mark is liable
to cause deception or confusion to the public, or is liable to dilute or
infringe any right of such third party, Licensee shall immediately notify
Licensor or its authorized representative giving particulars thereof, and
Licensee shall provide necessary information and assistance to Licensor or
its authorized representatives in the event that Licensor decides that
proceedings should be commenced or defended.  Licensor shall have exclusive
control of any litigation, opposition, cancellation or related legal
proceedings; provided Licensor shall indemnify and hold harmless Licensee
from any costs or expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, arising out
of such litigatory proceedings.  The decision whether to bring, defend,
maintain or settle any such proceedings shall be at the exclusive option
and expense of Licensor, and all recoveries shall belong exclusively to
Licensor.  Licensee will not initiate any such litigation, opposition,
cancellation or related legal proceedings in its own name, but, at
Licensor's request and sole expense, agrees to be joined as a party in any
action taken by Licensor to enforce its rights in the Licensed Mark.
Nothing in this Amendment shall require or be deemed to require Licensor to
enforce the Licensed Marks against others.

      8.4   Compliance With Laws. In the performance of this Amendment,
Licensee shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including
those laws and regulations particularly pertaining to the proper use and
designation of Marks in the Licensed Territory.  Should Licensee be or
become aware of any applicable laws or regulations which are inconsistent
with the provisions of this Amendment, Licensee shall promptly notify
Licensor of such inconsistency.  In such event, Licensor may, at its
option, either waive the performance of such inconsistent provisions, or
negotiate with Licensee to make changes in such provisions to comply with
applicable laws and regulations.

ARTICLE IX.  TERMINATION
             -----------

      9.1   Breach by Licensee. Licensor may terminate this Amendment at
any time in the event of a Significant Breach by Licensee.  A "Significant

      any marketing materials, or the offering, marketing or provision of
      any Classic Avaya Product which fails to meet the standards set forth
      in the Control Specifications; provided, however, that the failure of
      a particular product to comply with the Control Specifications shall
      be grounds for termination only as to that product; and, further
      provided that continued use of the Licensed Mark by Licensee in
      connection with such product shall be grounds for termination of the
      Amendment as to all Classic Avaya Products;

            (c)   Licensee's refusing or neglecting a request as provided
      in this Amendment by Licensor for access to Licensee's facilities or

      of or relinquishing (or purporting to license, assign, transfer,
      dispose of or relinquish) any of the rights granted in this Amendment
      to others;

            (e)   The bankruptcy or insolvency of Licensee or an Affiliate

      purpose of fulfilling existing customer orders, selling its remaining
      inventory and exhausting its supply of packaging materials containing
      such Licensed Mark and Trade Dress, then immediately cease all use of
      the Licensed Trade Mark and Licensed Trade Dress, except that
      Licensor, in its sole discretion, may allow Licensee to continue use
      of the Licensed Mark for a period of up to two (2) months as directed

by statement or by omission, ARS's authority to resell under this or any
other written agreement with Avaya  that is limited to specific Classic
Avaya Products or services, by stating or implying, by use of an Avaya Mark
or otherwise, that the authority granted in this or such other agreement
applies to any Avaya product or service not covered by this or such other
agreement, or (ix) ARS failed to comply with Avaya's guidelines for the
proper use of Avaya's Marks.

      9.5   Except as otherwise provided in this Amendment, either party

present or prospective profits on sales or anticipated sales, good will, or
expenditures, investments or commitments made in connection therewith or in
connection with the establishment, development or maintenance of ARS's
business.

reasonable attorneys' fees) due to such use, sale, lease or marketing to

obligation of Licensee will not apply to the extent any injury is caused by
Licensee's compliance with the Quality Control Specifications, Marketing
Specifications or other written directives by Licensor to Licensee;

      10.2  Licensee shall notify Licensor, in writing, in the event that
any third party claims, by suit, proceeding, action or otherwise, that
Licensee's use of the Licensed Mark in connection with Classic Avaya
Products as provided in this Amendment constitutes or amounts to a
trademark, service mark or trade dress infringement, unfair competition or
dilution, and, at Licensor's option, Licensee may be directed to tender the
defense of such claims to Licensor.  Licensor will indemnify and hold
harmless Licensee against all claims, suits, proceedings, costs (including
reasonable attorneys' fees), damages, and judgments incurred by Licensee as
a result of such third party claims described above in this Section 10.2.

      10.3  In the event that Licensor becomes aware of a claim that it
believes is or may be subject to indemnification under Section 10.1 above,
it shall promptly give notice to Licensee of such claim.  In order for a
claim to be eligible for indemnification under Section 10.1, Licensee must
receive such prompt notice of any claim.  Licensee shall have the right to
control the defense and possible settlement of any such claim, and the
Licensor shall cooperate in connection with defense.

      10.4  In no event will either party have any liability to the other
for any consequential or incidental damages in connection with this
Amendment.

assessment of ARS's potential successful marketing opportunities in the
Licensed Territory during the forecast period.  Avaya shall notify ARS in

rejected such forecast or it will be deemed to have been accepted by Avaya.
