ITEM 5.   OTHER EVENTS

LANZA GROUP LITIGATION.  On August 27, 1998, the Company filed suit against
Joseph Lanza ("Lanza"), his wife Jayne Lanza, his son Mario Lanza, IWIC and
several other entities believed to be owned or controlled by Lanza
(collectively, "Defendants" or the "Lanza Group") for breach of contract, unjust
enrichment, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violations of
securities laws.  The case is entitled AIRSTAR TECHNOLOGIES, INC. V. JOSEPH
LANZA ET AL.  The case is filed in Superior Court for the State of California
(Riverside County), Case No. INC008689.  The Company's claims arise from the
actions of the Defendants in connection with the consulting agreement between
IWIC and the Company, the purchase and sale of SelecTel, overbilling and false
billing by IWIC and others, fraudulent concealment by Lanza of his background as
it relates to the securities business, and fraudulent nondisclosure of
information to the Company which had a material adverse effect on the Company's
business.  The Company seeks rescission of certain promissory notes which Lanza
forced a director of the Company to sign without proper action by the Board of
Directors of the Company, rescission of the consulting agreement with IWIC,
rescission of issuance of  Company securities to all Lanza entities.  The
Company has asked for a temporary restraining order and other injunctive relief
barring Defendants from disposing of any of their securities of the Company,
from voting any such securities, and from soliciting proxies from other
shareholders.

     Management of the Company believes that the above claims are valid and
intends to prosecute the action vigorously. However, no assurance can be given
that the Company will be successful in this action or that even if it is, that
the Company will be granted relief that will provide a significant benefit to
the Company.  Management cannot predict how long this action will continue
before resolution or how much it will cost.
