            SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
the Company's directors and executive officers and persons who own more than 10%
of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file various reports
with the Securities and Exchange Commission concerning their holdings of, and
transactions in, securities of the Company. Copies of these filings must be
furnished to the Company.

     Based on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company and
other information, the Company believes that, during the fiscal year ended July
31, 2000, all of its directors and executive officers were in compliance with
the applicable filing requirements.

     ITEM 13.   CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     In April 1998, the Company engaged two companies for billing and
administrative services related to network management services it provides. The
companies, which are owned by Tomas Revesz, a director of the Company, were paid
approximately $140,000 for their services during fiscal 1998. Subsequent to July
31, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with the two companies capping
their combined monthly fees at $18,500 per month. For fiscal 1999 and 2000, the
companies were paid approximately $180,000 and $160,000, respectively, for their
services. Additionally, the Company has a payable to Mr. Revesz of $90,000.

     In February 1999, we entered into notes payable with related parties, all
of whom were officers or directors of ATSI in the amount of $250,000. The notes
accrued interest at a rate of 12% per year until paid in full. As of July 31,
2000, the notes were paid in full.

     In February 2000, our Board of Directors approved a plan to lend
approximately $1.5 million, at a market interest rate, in the aggregate to
certain key executive officers to allow them to exercise approximately 2,250,000
of their vested options. The executive officers who borrowed under the plan must
adhere to the following conditions: 1) they must contribute 10% in cash of the
amount borrowed; 2) the stock obtained with the exercises must be escrowed under
a twelve month standstill agreement or until such time as the note is paid; and
3) any derivative equity obtained from the stock's ownership must be escrowed
for a six-month period. As of April 30, 2000, we had lent approximately $1.2
million to key executive officers allowing them to exercise vested options. We
recognized the transaction by recording a note receivable for each executive
officer. As of July 31, 2000, the note receivable balance was approximately $1.1
million.

     On August 1, 2000 we entered into a consulting agreement with Charles R.
Poole, former President and Chief Operating Officer of ATSI-Delaware, to perform
certain consulting services for the period beginning August 1, 2000 and ending
December 31, 2000 in the amount of approximately $10,583 per month.
