ITEM 2.   ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

          (a)   Pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of 
Merger dated as of November 19, 1997, as amended on January 30, 1998, April 
6, 1998 and October 13, 1998 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among STAR 
Telecommunications, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("STAR" or the "Company"), 
IIWII Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the 
Company ("Acquisition") and United Digital Network, Inc., a Delaware 
corporation ("UDN"), effective March 24, 1999 (the "Effective Date"), STAR 
acquired all of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of UDN (the "UDN 
Shares") in exchange for shares of the Company's Common Stock, $0.001 par 
value per share (the "STAR Common Stock").  On the Effective Date, a 
Certificate of Merger was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of 
Delaware, pursuant to which Acquisition was merged with and into UDN (the 
"Merger"), in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and with the 
Delaware General Corporation Law, and UDN became a wholly-owned subsidiary of 
STAR.

                On the closing of the Merger, the shareholders of UDN 
received an aggregate of approximately 1.01 million shares of STAR Common 
Stock, resulting in an effective exchange ratio of 0.146428 shares of STAR 
Common Stock for each UDN Share. On the Effective Date, STAR assumed all 
outstanding options and warrants to acquire UDN Common Stock.

                On March 25, 1999, the first full trading date following the 
Effective Date, the closing sales price of the STAR Common Stock on the 
NASDAQ Stock Market was $10.50. As such, the aggregate purchase price paid by 
STAR for UDN was approximately $10.6 million. On the Effective Date, UDN 
owed STAR $4.5 million, plus interest pursuant to a series of loans made by 
STAR to UDN prior to such time.  The purchase price was arrived at through 
arms-length negotiations between the Company and UDN. Prior to the closing, 
John R. Snedegar, an officer and director of UDN, was an affiliate of the 
Company.

                                          2.

          (b)   Prior to the Closing, UDN was in the business of providing 
international long distance services to retail customers and 
telecommunications carriers.  Pursuant to the Merger, UDN became a direct 
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  It is the present intention of the 
Company that UDN will continue to engage in such business.
