FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TOTAL-TEL USA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. ANNOUNCES SETTLEMENT
TALKS WITH GOLD & APPEL TRANSFER, S.A., REVISION, LLC, AND WALTER ANDERSON
Little Falls, New Jersey, December 9, 1998, Total-Tel USA Communications,
Inc. (NASDAQ: TELU) announced today that it is postponing its Annual
Shareholders Meeting originally scheduled for December 10, 1998. The Company
stated that it is currently negotiating to settle litigation brought against the
Company in April by Gold & Appel Transfer, S.A., Revision, LLC, and Walter
Anderson. The negotiations also encompass possible resolution of a proxy contest
led by Mr. Anderson that seeks to replace certain members of the Company's Board
of Directors.
Warren Feldman, Chairman and CEO of Total-Tel, explained that the Company
remains confident of its position in the litigation and in the proxy contest,
but believes the proposed settlement under discussion, if entered, would provide
significant benefits to the Company, including an end to the disruption and
expense caused by litigation and the proxy solicitation.
The shareholders meeting will be rescheduled as soon as practicable to a
date in the near future. Notice of the new date will be furnished to the
shareholders.
