AMENDMENT NO. 11 TO SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 11 to Schedule 13D filed by Revision LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Revision"), and Walt Anderson, a natural
person and a U.S. citizen ("Mr. Anderson"), as joint filers, with respect to
the common stock, par value $0.05 per share (the "Common Shares"), of Total-Tel
USA Communications, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (the "Issuer"), supplements
Item 3, 4 and 7 and amends and restates paragraph (b) of Item 5 of the Schedule
13D previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") by
Gold & Appel, a British Virgin Islands corporation ("Gold & Appel"), and Mr.
Anderson as joint filers on January 16, 1998 (the "Schedule 13D"), as amended
by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the SEC on January 30, 1998 ("Amendment
No. 1"), Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the SEC on February 13, 1998
("Amendment No. 2"), Amendment No. 3 thereto filed with the SEC on March 4,
1998 ("Amendment No. 3"), Amendment No. 4 thereto filed with the SEC on March
13, 1998 ("Amendment No. 4"), Amendment No. 5 thereto filed with the SEC on
March 30, 1998 ("Amendment No. 5"), Amendment No. 6 thereto filed with the SEC
on April 6, 1998 ("Amendment No. 6"), Amendment No. 7 thereto filed with the
SEC on June 12, 1998 ("Amendment No. 7"), Amendment No. 8 thereto filed with
the SEC on July 29, 1998 ("Amendment No. 8"), Amendment No. 9 thereto filed
with the SEC on August 19, 1998 ("Amendment No. 9") and Amendment No. 10
thereto filed with the SEC on September 29, 1998 ("Amendment No. 10"). All
capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed
to them in the Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2,
Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 4, Amendment No. 5, Amendment No. 6, Amendment
No. 7, Amendment No. 8, Amendment No. 9 and Amendment No. 10. Unless otherwise
noted, all data included in this Amendment No. 11 reflects a 2 for 1 stock
split of the Common Shares which was effected on July 15, 1998.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS AND OTHER CONSIDERATION.
On September 26, 1998, Revision acquired 138,000 Common Shares
through the exercise of an option (the "Option") granted pursuant to the
Agreement (the "Option Shares"). The source of the funds for such exercise were
a capital contribution to Revision by Gold & Appel. The purchase price for the
Option Shares was $19.75 per share or an aggregate of $2,746,200.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION.
The response set forth in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby
supplemented as follows:
At a hearing on September 28, 1998, the Court found that the purchase
of 477,694 Common Shares by a third party, Thomas Cirrito, violated the
Injunction against the indirect acquisition by Revision of additional Common
Shares. As a remedy for the violation, the Court has enjoined Revision from
voting an equal number of shares owned by Revision as were purchased by Mr.
Cirrito.
At a hearing on October 9, 1998, the Court granted Revision's motion
and ordered that 600,000 Common Shares issued to the ESOP trust be enjoined
from voting pending the outcome of the litigation.
4
<PAGE>
On October 23, 1998, counsel to Revision sent counsel to the Issuer a
letter dated October 23, 1998 (the "Letter") alleging that the Issuer
materially misrepresented certain of the Court's orders in a Current Report on
Form 8-K dated October 9, 1998 (the "8-K") and demanding that the Issuer take
steps to immediately amend the 8-K to accurately reflect the Court's orders.
The 8-K erroneously states that the Court found Anderson and Gold & Appel in
contempt of Court for violating certain of the Court's orders. By Order dated
October 15, 1998, the Court specifically did not find Anderson and Gold & Appel
in contempt of Court but simply held Anderson in violation of the Issuer's
rights. The Letter also alleges that the Issuer's disclosure in its 8-K
regarding the Court's ruling on the Issuer's recently adopted ESOP is
materially misleading. The 8-K states that Court found "that the adoption of
the ESOP was an appropriate business judgment." The Letter states that the
Court enjoined the voting of any undistributed Common Shares under the ESOP in
light of the timing of the ESOP. The Court's order does not state that the
adoption of the ESOP was an appropriate business judgment. A copy of the Letter
is attached hereto as Exhibit 7.1.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
The responses set forth in (b) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are
hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
(b) The sole power to vote or direct the voting of and the power
to dispose or direct the disposition of the Anderson Shares is held by Mr.
Anderson.
As the Manager and holder of 100% of the voting membership interests
in Revision, Mr. Anderson has the sole power to vote or direct the voting of
1,379,940 Common Shares (which excludes 477,694 Common Shares to which Revision
is enjoined from voting) and the power, in the name and on behalf of Revision,
to dispose of the 1,857,434 Common Shares beneficially owned by Revision.
Accordingly, Mr. Anderson may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
Revision Shares, and thereby the beneficial owner of 1,857,634 or 24.2% of the
outstanding Common Shares.
The number of shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting
Persons and the percentage of outstanding shares represented thereby, have been
computed in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. The ownership of the Reporting Persons is based on 7,673,154
outstanding Common Shares of the Issuer as of September 11, 1998, as reported
in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended
July 31, 1998 (600,000 of such shares were issued to the ESOP trust
and have been enjoined from voting pending the outcome of the litigation).
See Item 4.
The number of shares shown to be beneficially owned by Mr. Anderson
and Revision excludes 477,694 shares owned by Thomas Cirrito as to which Mr.
Anderson and Revision disclaim beneficial ownership. See Schedule A hereto for
certain information concerning Mr. Cirrito.

Re: Gold & Appel Transfer, S.A. and Revision LLC
v. Total-Tel Communications, Inc.
--------------------------------------------
Dear Bobby:
On October 15, 1998 Total-Tel USA Communications, Inc. filed
a form 8-K which stated, inter alia, that the Court had found Walter Anderson
and Gold & Appel in contempt of court for violating certain of the Court's
orders. The public filing contains material, misleading and defamatory
information. In fact, by Order dated October 15, the Court specifically found
that Total-Tel's motion was not brought for contempt. The Court deleted every
reference to "contempt" in the order and simply found that Anderson was in
violation of litigants' rights.
Similarly, Total-Tel's public disclosure regarding the
Court's ruling on Total-Tel's recently adopted ESOP is materially misleading.
As you know, the Court enjoined the voting of any undistributed shares under
the ESOP in light of the timing of the adoption of the ESOP. The Court order
makes no mention, and in no way endorses, the adoption of the ESOP as an
appropriate business judgment.
Our client intends to take legal steps to hold Total-Tel
responsible for any damages to his reputation as a result of Total-Tel's
statements. Please take steps to immediately file an amended and accurate 8-K
which reflects the Court's order accurately and completely.
Very truly yours,
Michael J. Lichentstein
