ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

On December 6, 2000, World Access announced that its planned tender offer for
the acquisition of all publicly traded shares in TelDaFax AG will be effected at
an increased exchange ratio of 1.16 World Access shares for each TelDaFax share.
The increase in the exchange ratio was made in order to comply with the German
Takeover Code, in light of recent trading activity in TelDaFax shares. The Apax
funds and Dr. Henning Klose, CEO of TelDaFax, have waived their rights under the
TelDaFax Purchase Agreement to get additional shares. World Access has agreed to
reimburse the Apax funds for certain expenses related to the transaction. At the
new ratio, if 100% of outstanding TelDaFax shares are tendered, World Access
will issue an aggregate of up to approximately 37.7 million shares of
World Access common stock in the TelDaFax transactions, including approximately
22.9 million shares in order to complete the tender.
