Report of Independent Auditors
Plan Administrator
World Access, Inc. Retirement and Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
of World Access, Inc. Retirement and Savings Plan as of August 31, 1998, and the
related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year
then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit. The financial statements of the Plan as of and
for the year ended August 31, 1997, were audited by other auditors whose report
dated September 14, 1998, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
August 31, 1998, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for
the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes as of August 31, 1998, reportable transactions for
the year ended August 31, 1998, and non-exempt transactions for the year ended
August 31, 1998 are presented for the purposes of complying with the Department
of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), and are not a required part of
the financial statements. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of
the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in our audit of the 1998 financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
1998 financial statements taken as a whole.
The information presented in the schedule of reportable transactions does not
disclose the historical cost of certain investments. Disclosure of this
information is required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under ERISA.

Retirement and Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
August 31, 1998
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following description of World Access, Inc. (the "Company") Retirement and
Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the Plan Agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.
GENERAL
The Company established the Plan effective July 1, 1989 as a defined
contribution plan as defined under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code
(the "Code"). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). Company representatives
served as trustee of the Plan for the first three quarters of the 1998 Plan
year. The Plan was amended and restated to appoint Merrill Lynch Trust Company
(the "trustee") as trustee of the Plan's investments effective June 1, 1998.
ELIGIBILITY
The Plan covers all employees of the Company and certain participating
affiliates who have attained 21 years of age and completed one-half year of
service, as defined. Prior to June 1, 1998, employees were required to complete
one year of service, as defined. Participating affiliates to the Plan include
AIT, Westec, Sunrise, NACT, ATI Wireless, Galaxy, CIS, and Cherry Communications
(Resurgens).
CONTRIBUTIONS
Participation is voluntary and eligible employees may elect to contribute up to
15% of their compensation through payroll deductions, as defined by the Plan
agreement and subject to statutory limitations. The Company matches 50 percent
of all participant contributions up to and including 6 percent of each
participant's compensation for those

Retirement and Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)
CONTRIBUTIONS (CONTINUED)
participants credited with a year of service, as defined by the Plan agreement.
The Company match is provided through the issuance of Company stock. An annual
profit sharing contribution may be contributed at the option of the Company's
Board of Directors. No profit sharing contribution was made during the year
ended August 31, 1998.
PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and
allocations of the Company's contribution and Plan earnings. Allocations are
based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan
agreement. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that
can be provided from the participant's vested account.
VESTING
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings
thereon. Vesting in the Company match portion of their accounts is based on the
number of years of credited service with the Company. A participant is 100
percent vested after five years of credited service. Non-vested account balances
are forfeited and are used to reduce future Company contributions. Approximately
$8,200 of forfeited account balances was used to reduce Company contributions
during the year ended August 31, 1998.
PARTICIPANT LOANS
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a
maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance.
Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the investment fund from
(to) the participant loans fund.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)
PARTICIPANT LOANS (CONTINUED)
Loan terms range from one to five years or twenty years if the loan is used for
a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's
account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with the local prevailing
interest rates. Principal and interest are paid ratably through monthly payroll
deductions.
BENEFITS AND WITHDRAWALS
Benefits are available to Plan participants upon reaching the normal retirement
age (age 65), date of disability, or after termination of service for any other
reason. The participant's entire vested interest in the Plan shall be available
to be distributed in a lump-sum cash payment or installment forms of
distribution, as provided for in the Plan agreement. Participant contributions
to the Plan may be withdrawn upon approval by the Plan administrator and subject
to Code requirements in cases in which a participant has suffered a financial
hardship.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts in the 1997 financials statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 1998 presentation.

Retirement and Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
INVESTMENT VALUATION
Investments in mutual funds are stated at fair value based on quoted prices in
an active market. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued
at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the Plan year. The
fair value of the participation units owned by the Plan in the pooled separate
account is based on quoted redemption values. Such redemption values are
generally established based on quoted market prices of the underling securities
on the last business day of the Plan year. The Plan's investment in the CIGNA
Guaranteed Long-Term account is stated at contract value which approximates fair
value. Contract value represents contributions made under the account, plus
interest at the contract rates, less funds used to pay benefits and
administrative expenses. Participant loans are valued at cost which approximates
fair value.
INVESTMENT INCOME
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded
as earned. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the
reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Administrative expenses for the Plan are paid directly by the Company, and not
from Plan assets.
BENEFIT PAYMENTS
Benefits are recorded when paid.

3. INCOME TAX STATUS
The Plan has received an opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated
June 29, 1993, stating that the written form of the underlying prototype plan
document is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the
"Code"), and that any employer adopting this form of the Plan will be considered
to have a plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code. Therefore, the
related trust is exempt from taxation. The Plan is required to operate in
conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator
believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and
the related trust is tax exempt.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH PARTIES-IN-INTEREST
At August 31, 1998 and 1997, the Plan held 74,981 and 58,516 shares of World
Access, Inc. Common Stock, respectively. The fair value of this stock at August
31, 1998 and 1997 was $1,434,017 and $1,576,475, respectively.
Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual and common trust funds managed by
the trustee, therefore, these investment transactions qualify as
party-in-interest. The Plan sponsor paid administrative expenses on behalf of
the plan for the year ended August 31, 1998.
5. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination,
participants will receive the vested portion of their account.

7. YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)
The Plan sponsor has determined that it will be necessary to take certain steps
in order to ensure that the Plan's information systems are prepared to handle
year 2000 dates. The Plan Sponsor is taking a two phase approach. The first
phase addresses internal systems that must be modified or replaced to function
properly. Both internal and external resources are being utilized to replace or
modify existing software applications, and test the software and equipment for
the year 2000 modifications. The Plan Sponsor anticipates substantially
completing this phase of the project by June 1999. Costs associated with
modifying software and equipment are not estimated to be significant and will be
paid by the Plan sponsor.
For the second phase of the project, Plan management established formal
communications with its third party service providers to determine that they
have developed plans to address their own year 2000 problems as they relate to
the Plan's operations. All third party service providers have indicated that
they will be year 2000 compliant by early 1999. If modification of data
processing systems of either the Plan, the Plan sponsor, or its service
providers are not completed timely, the year 2000 problem
10

7. YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
could have a material impact on the operations of the Plan. Plan management has
not developed a contingency plan, because they are confident that all systems
will be year 2000 ready.
8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Effective November 18, 1998, the Company amended the vesting schedule to allow
participants to become 100 percent vested after four years of credited service.
