ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

     On October 29, 1999 (the "Closing Date"), Focus Affiliates, Inc.
("Focus") completed its acquisition of Cellular Wholesalers, Inc. ("CWI"), a
privately held wholesale distributor of wireless phone products.  The
acquisition was accomplished through a merger (the "Merger") of CWI into
Intellicell Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Focus ("Merger
Sub"), pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of July 23, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement") among Focus, CWI, the
principal stockholders of CWI, and Merger Sub.

     Under the terms of the Merger, CWI's stockholders were entitled to
receive $5,000,000 in cash and 2,250,000 shares of Focus' common stock (the
"Base Consideration") plus an additional amount (the "Additional
Consideration") in the event the total stockholders' equity of CWI as of the
Closing Date (the "Closing Date Equity") exceeds $177,667.  The Additional
Consideration, if any, will consist of an additional number of shares of
Focus common stock (the "Additional Shares") as equals the amount by which
the Closing Date Equity exceeds $177,667 divided by $4; provided, that in no
event will the number of Additional Shares exceed 2,250,000 shares.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the cash portion of the Base Consideration
will be reduced by the amount, if any, by which the Closing Date Equity is
less than $1,177,667.  Of the $5,000,000 cash portion of the Base
Consideration, $500,000 was reserved in escrow pending the determination of
the Closing Date Equity.  The Closing Date Equity will be determined within
30 days following the Closing Date by Focus' and CWI's independent certified
public accountants.  On the date the Merger Agreement was executed, Focus
received a written opinion from its financial advisor that the consideration
to be paid for CWI was fair to Focus from a financial point of view.

     To fund the cash payment by Focus to the CWI stockholders and related
Merger closing expenses, Focus sold:

     (1)  $5,152,400 of convertible subordinated notes (the "Notes") in a
          private placement.  Each Note is a one-year unsecured and
          subordinated obligation of Focus that bears interest at the rate of
          4% per annum, which is payable at the maturity of the Note. If and
          when the Focus stockholders approve the conversion of the Notes,
          each $4.00 of Convertible Notes will automatically convert into one
          share of Focus common stock and one redeemable warrant to purchase
          one-half share of Focus common stock.  These warrants have an
          exercise price of $4.00 and expire five years from the Closing Date.

     (2)  $1,000,000 of subordinated debt (the "Debt") together with 150,000
          warrants to Critical Capital Growth Fund, L.P.  The Debt bears
          interest at 12% per annum, which matures in five years.  The
          warrants have an exercise price of $5.55 and expire five years
          from the Closing Date.

     In connection with the Merger, Focus and Merger Sub agreed to appoint
several designees of the CWI stockholders as directors of Focus and Merger
Sub and several former CWI officers as officers of Focus and Merger Sub.
Upon the closing of the Merger, Ronald

as directors of Focus and Merger Sub, and the following former CWI officers
were appointed as officers of Focus and Merger Sub in the capacities

Cohen (Vice President - Finance and Administration), and Cary Maimon (Vice
President - General Manager).
