ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

        The undersigned registrant hereby amends the following item of its
Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 22, 1999 (event date: December 7,
1999), related to the registrant's merger with FaciliCom International, Inc.,
as set forth below:

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

         (b)      PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION.

     On December 9, 1999, the Board of Directors adopted a plan to divest our
Equipment Group and further focus on our strategy to be a leading provider of
bundled voice, data and Internet services to key regions of the world. The
Equipment Group currently generates annual revenues in excess of $250 million
and consists of the following business units:

     - Telco Systems Division, a leading provider of next generation transport
       and access solutions for service providers throughout the world. Its
       products include intelligent integrated access devices, multiplexers and
       digital microwave radios. We acquired Telco Systems on November 30, 1998.

     - NACT Switching Division, a rapidly growing provider of advanced switching
       platforms with integrated proprietary applications software as well as
       billing and telemanagement systems. We acquired NACT on February 27,
       1998.

     - Wireless Local Loop Division, which has developed a next generation,
       CDMA-based, fixed wireless local loop system known as Velocity-2000.

     - Cellular Infrastructure Supply Division, a value-added supplier of new
       and re-furbished cellular base stations and related equipment. We
       acquired Cellular Infrastructure Supply effective January 1997.

     As a result of the adoption of a formal plan to divest our non-core
operations, we will report the results of the Equipment Group as discontinued
operations as defined in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30. For the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 the Equipment Group represented 100
percent of the Company's operations. The only continuing item in the pro forma
statements of operations are general corporate administrative costs and interest
income and expense. Reflecting the reclassification of the Equipment Group as
discontinued operations the operating loss, loss from continuing operations and
loss from continuing operations per common share for the years ended December
31, 1996 and 1997 would have been approximately $1.0 million and $1.7 million;
$588,000 and $547,000; and $.05 and $.03, respectively.

     The following unaudited pro forma financial statements give effect to the
divestiture of our Equipment Group as well as the 1999 mergers with FaciliCom
International, Inc. and Comm/Net Holding Corporation and the 1998 merger with
Cherry Communications Incorporated, d/b/a Resurgens Communications Group, and
Cherry Communications U.K. Limited. Cherry Communications Incorporated, d/b/a
Resurgens Communications Group, and Cherry Communications U.K. Limited are
collectively referred to as Resurgens in the pro forma financial statements.

     The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet gives effect to our merger
with FaciliCom and related transactions as if they had been completed on
September 30, 1999. The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statements of Operations
give effect to (1) the divestiture of the Equipment Group, (2) our December 1999
merger with FaciliCom and related transactions, (3) our May 1999 merger with
Comm/Net and (4) our December 1998 merger with Resurgens, as if each had been
completed as of January 1, 1998.

     We have prepared the pro forma financial statements to demonstrate how
these combined businesses might have looked if the mergers, divestitures and
related transactions had been completed as of the date or at the beginning of
the periods presented. The pro forma financial statements, while helpful in
illustrating characteristics of the combined company under one set of
assumptions, do not attempt to predict or suggest future results. The pro forma
financial statements are preliminary and subject to change based on a final
review of the fair values of FaciliCom's net assets.

     In connection with our merger with FaciliCom, we expect to record a
one-time restructuring charge for the estimated costs of (1) consolidating
certain of our United States gateway switching centers and related technical
support functions into existing FaciliCom operations; (2) consolidating our
United Kingdom operations into existing FaciliCom operations; (3) consolidating
the administrative functions of


                                      -3-
<PAGE>   4

our Telecommunications Group into FaciliCom's operations; and (4) eliminating
other redundant operations and assets as a result of combining our
Telecommunications Group's and FaciliCom's operations. The restructuring charge
will include the write-down of our switching and transmission equipment taken
out of service, the write-off of certain leasehold improvements, a provision for
lease commitments remaining on certain facilities and equipment taken out of
service and employee termination benefits. The restructuring program is expected
to be completed in the first quarter of 2000. We have not yet determined the
actual restructuring charge to be recorded but estimate that it will be
approximately $35.0 million. This one-time charge has been excluded from the pro
forma financial statements.

     As a result of the FaciliCom merger and the restructuring program discussed
above, we expect to realize significant operational and financial synergies.
These synergies are expected to include cost reductions resulting from traffic
routing changes made to take advantage of each company's least cost routes,
elimination of redundant leased line costs, elimination of redundant switching
centers and consolidation of certain administrative functions. We currently
estimate that these annualized cost savings, which have been excluded from the
pro forma financial statements, will range from $20.0 million to $35.0 million.

     The pro forma financial statements are presented for comparative purposes
only and are not intended to be indicative of the actual results had these
transactions occurred as of the dates indicated above nor do they purport to
indicate results which may be attained in the future. The pro forma financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated
financial statements of World Access, Resurgens and FaciliCom, which are
included herein or incorporated herein by reference.

     (a)   Represents the fair value of the 350,260 shares of Series C Preferred
           Stock issued as part of the FaciliCom merger consideration. The fair

          discount for the lack of liquidity in a private security. The Series
          C Preferred Stock bears no dividend and is convertible into shares of
          World Access common stock at a conversion rate of $20.38 per common
          share of World Access common stock, subject to adjustment in the
          event of below market issuances of World Access common stock, stock
          dividends, subdivisions, combinations, reclassifications and other
          distributions with respect to World Access common stock. If the
          closing trading price of World Access common stock exceeds $20.38 per
          share for 60 consecutive trading days, the Series C Preferred Stock
          will automatically convert into World Access common stock.

     (b)  In connection with the merger of World Access and FaciliCom, all the
          holders of FaciliCom's 10 1/2% Series B Senior Notes due 2008 have
          tendered their notes and accepted in exchange for each $1,000 in
          principal amount (1) $1,000 principal amount of World Access 13.25%
          Senior Notes due 2008 (2) $10 in cash and (3) World Access common
          stock having a market value of $50. These pro forma statements reflect
          (1) the issuance of $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the
          World Access notes (2) the payment of $3.0 million cash to holders of
          the FaciliCom notes, which represented the fee paid by World Access to
          obtain the consent from the FaciliCom noteholders waiving their right
          to put their notes at 101% of par in connection with the FaciliCom
          merger and (3) the issuance of 942,627 shares of World Access common
          stock equal in value to an aggregate amount of $15.0 million to the
          holders of the FaciliCom notes.

     (c)  Represents the fair value of 963,722 shares of World Access common
          stock issued to certain FaciliCom shareholders who elected to receive
          World Access common shares in the merger. These shares were valued
          based on the average market price on Nasdaq of World Access common
          stock for the three days prior and three days subsequent to August 17,
          1999, the date economic terms of the FaciliCom merger were announced,
          or $13.83 per share.

     (d)  Represents the fair value of approximately 495,600 options to acquire
          World Access common stock issued in exchange for certain options
          outstanding to acquire FaciliCom common stock. The fair value has been
          determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the
          following assumptions: dividend yield 0%, volatility 70%, risk free
          interest rate of 5.8% and an expected life of 3 years. The World
          Access options have an average exercise price of $2.63 per share and
          are fully vested.

     (e)  Represents the discount to face value to be recorded to adjust the
          World Access notes to their estimated fair value. The estimated fair
          value was based on the quoted market price of debt with similar
          characteristics. The terms of the World Access notes were structured
          to provide fair value equal to 95% of the principal amount.

     7.   In connection with the FaciliCom merger, World Access issued $75.0
          million of World Access common stock (4,713,128 shares at $15.91 per
          share) in a private transaction to a group of institutional and
          sophisticated investors. World Access used the majority of the
          proceeds from this private placement to fund the $56.0 million cash
          portion of the merger consideration, as well as fees and expenses to
          be incurred in connection with the merger.

     8.   In December 1998, World Access acquired Resurgens and issued
          approximately 7,500,000 restricted shares of World Access common stock
          which were placed in escrow for future release contingent upon their
          future EBITDA performance. The release of these shares is accelerated
          in connection with the FaciliCom merger as the FaciliCom merger
          qualifies as a "Change in Control" as defined in the Resurgens merger
          agreements. The release of the 7,500,000 shares has been accounted for
          as an increase in goodwill and stockholders' equity. These shares were
          valued

         based on the market price on Nasdaq of World Access common stock
         December 7, 1999, the date the FaciliCom merger was consummated, or
         $17.00 per share.

     9.  Elimination of existing goodwill from prior FaciliCom acquisitions and
         debt issue costs associated with the FaciliCom notes.

     10. Elimination of inter-company carrier service revenues and related
         costs.

     11. In October 1999, FaciliCom granted stock options to its employees who
         are expected to continue with the surviving corporation after the
         merger with World Access. These options, which were granted under a new
         FaciliCom 1999 Stock Option Plan, have a four year vesting period. In
         connection with the merger, these options converted into non-qualified
         options to purchase approximately 1.9 million shares of World Access
         common stock at an exercise price of $15.00 per share. The intrinsic
         value of these options represents the difference between the closing
         price of World Access common stock on December 7, 1999 of $17.00 per
         share and the exercise price of $15.00 per share times the number of
         options granted or approximately $3.8 million. The pro forma statements
         of operations include compensation expense related to the amortization
         of the intrinsic value of these options over the vesting period.

     12. Amortization of goodwill over an estimated life of 20 years. The pro
         forma adjustment to goodwill for the nine months ended September 30,
         1999 was computed as follows (in thousands):

         4,713,128 shares issued for $75.0 million in connection with the
         private placement of World Access common stock; (2) an aggregate of

         of the Resurgens earn-out (see Note 7) as of the beginning of the
         periods presented. Due to the pro forma loss from continuing operations
         for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and the year ended
         December 31, 1998, potential common stock shares related to stock
         options, stock warrants, convertible notes and convertible preferred
         stock have been excluded from the diluted loss per share as the
         inclusion of these potential common stock shares would be
         anti-dilutive.
