Item 5. Other Events.

     On or about July 25, 1995, Megacable, S.A. de C.V. ("Megacable") executed a
non-binding letter of intent to form a business relationship with MFS
Communications Company, Inc. ("MFS") to provide local telecommunications
services in Mexico City.  The new entity, to be known as MFS Communications of
Mexico ("MFS-Mexico"), will petition the Secretariat of Communications and
Transportation for a concession to construct and operate a facilities-based
fiber optic network.  It is anticipated that MFS-Mexico will be authorized to
provide an array of telecommunications services, including private line,
advanced data, dial tone and Centrex-type services.

     In addition to receipt of the appropriate regulatory approvals,
commencement of operations will be dependent upon numerous contingencies,
including the execution of definitive agreements between the parties and the
successful negotiation of an interconnection agreement with Telefonos de Mexico,
S.A. de C.V. ("Telmex"), the local telephone company.  The terms of any
definitive agreement between Megacable and MFS will be determined pursuant to
arm's length negotiations.

     C-TEC Corporation ("C-TEC"), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, holds a
40 percent ownership interest in Megacable, which is the second largest cable
television operator in Mexico.  The largest shareholder of C-TEC is RCN
Corporation ("RCN").  Ninety percent of RCN's stock is held by Kiewit
Diversified Group, Inc. ("KDG").  The stock of KDG is wholly-owned by Peter
Kiewit Sons', Inc. ("PKS").  PKS and/or its affiliates also have substantial
stock ownership in MFS.

     PKS, KDG, MFS, RCN and C-TEC share mutual director representation on their
respective boards.
