PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed
information in the ITDS Consolidated Financial Statements, the Intelicom
Financial Statements, the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements and Notes
thereto appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Except as otherwise noted
herein, all information contained in this Prospectus assumes no exercise of the
Underwriters' over-allotment options and reflects a three-for-two split of the
Company's Common Stock, effected in the form of a stock dividend on March 9,
1998. Information provided on a "Pro Forma Basis" assumes that the Intelicom
Acquisition (as defined below) occurred on January 1, 1997 unless otherwise
indicated.

The Company

ITDS is a leading provider of comprehensive billing, customer care and
management information solutions to providers of wireless and satellite
telecommunications services. The Company currently supports over 5 million
subscribers in more than 200 wireless markets. The Company uses its proprietary
software technology to develop solutions which address billing and customer
care requirements as they evolve, regardless of a service provider's market
segment, geographic area or mix of network features and billing options. The
Company currently serves leading national and regional wireless
telecommunications companies in the United States, including Aliant
Communications Co. ("Aliant"), Dobson Cellular Systems ("Dobson"), Nextel
Communications, Inc. ("Nextel"), Omnipoint Corporation ("Omnipoint"),
Southwestern Bell, Sygnet Wireless, Inc. ("Sygnet"), Western Wireless Corp.
("Western Wireless") and WorldCom, Inc. ("WorldCom"). Typically, the Company
provides its services under contracts with terms ranging from two to five
years, and bills customers monthly, on a per-subscriber basis. As a result,
substantially all of the Company's revenue is derived from bill processing
services, which are recurring in nature. This revenue generally increases as
the number of subscribers served by the Company grows. For the year ended
December 31, 1997, on a Pro Forma Basis, recurring revenues accounted for
approximately 90% of total revenues.

On January 2, 1998, ITDS acquired a subsidiary ("Intelicom") of Computer
Sciences Corporation ("CSC") (the "Intelicom Acquisition"). Intelicom provides
complete billing and customer care solutions for the wireless communication
industry, including cellular, personal communication services ("PCS"), paging
and enhanced specialized mobile radio ("ESMR"). Revenue for Intelicom for the
year ended December 31, 1997 was approximately $57.0 million, or approximately
71% of the Company's 1997 revenues on a Pro Forma Basis. Primarily as a result
of the Intelicom Acquisition, the number of subscribers supported by the
Company increased from approximately 735,000 in January 1997 to approximately
4.6 million in January 1998. The Company believes there are potentially strong
synergies between the acquired platforms and applications and the ITDS
platforms and applications existing at the time of the Intelicom Acquisition.
The Company intends to reconfigure and combine certain of its platforms to
reduce the number of total platforms offered and to migrate desirable
applications across its platform offering.

In recent years, the telecommunications services industry has experienced
rapid growth and dramatic change. The number of wireless subscribers in the
United States has increased from 500,000 in June 1986 to 55.3 million in
December 1997, according to the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association ("CTIA"). Deregulation and the introduction of technologies such as
cellular, PCS and satellite communications have spurred the introduction of new
entrants and increased competitive pressures across the telecommunications
services market. Markets that were once rigidly segmented by service within
defined geographic areas are converging into a single telecommunications
market, which includes both traditional service providers and a variety of new
participants. Because of these competitive pressures and the proliferation of
service features and pricing options within the telecommunications services
industry, the billing function has evolved from primarily a service support
function to a marketing and revenue enhancement device used to differentiate
the increasingly fungible services offered by providers. Service providers need
billing, customer care and management information solutions which (i) enable
them to differentiate their services quickly and efficiently in an increasingly
competitive market; (ii) respond quickly, efficiently and accurately to
market-driven demands; (iii) integrate seamlessly with their corporate
management information services; (iv) provide a basis for the efficient
development and deployment of solutions to address common industry issues; and
(v) offer flexibility and reliability as critical components of subscriber
relations, communication and retention.

Driven by the requirements of the telecommunications services market and
the Intelicom Acquisition, the Company's revenues have increased rapidly in
recent years from approximately $6.3 million in 1994 to $23.4 million and $80.4
million in fiscal 1997 and 1997 on a Pro Forma Basis, respectively.

<PAGE>

The Company's core systems form the foundation for an integrated suite of
applications that provide subscriber billing, customer care and service
support. In addition, the Company's systems enable the service provider to
automate subscriber activation, remittance processing, collections, data
retrieval and reporting, fraud management, electronic funds transfer, credit
management, inventory management and data archiving. The Company's software and
services allow its customers to develop and support innovative rate and feature
offerings without the delay and cost associated with reconfiguring their
billing and information system; to identify and respond to subscriber demands
through analysis of billing and subscriber databases; to reduce costs with
accurate and timely receivables information; and to manage the subscriber
relationship in a comprehensive and cost-effective manner.

The Company's solutions are implemented for its customers by dedicated
teams with expertise in meeting the transactional billing and customer care
requirements of telecommunications services providers. The Company's software
is installed at a customer site to interface directly with the customer's
systems and generate relevant billing and other data, as well as to support a
wide range of transactional billing, customer care and subscriber management
functions. The Company processes billing information generated through the use
of its software systems, eliminating the need for customers to maintain their
own data processing operations.

To further its position as a leading provider of billing and customer care
services to telecommunications service providers worldwide, the Company intends
to (i) leverage the expanded customer base achieved through the Intelicom
Acquisition, (ii) meet the specific needs of each of its customers by offering
and supporting applications and platforms that offer functionality tailored to
such customers' specific needs, (iii) offer complete transactional billing
solutions to providers in non-wireless segments of the telecommunications
services market, such as satellite, data transmission, Internet and other
enhanced services, (iv) achieve greater economic efficiencies by combining
certain of the operations of its facilities, (v) expand internationally and
establish a service bureau operation in Brazil, and (vi) pursue strategic
acquisitions. The Company intends to meet these objectives by drawing on the
expertise of its personnel and by focusing on the further development of its
technology base. The Company believes that these efforts, coupled with the
capabilities of its existing software and the introduction of new applications,
will permit significant continued growth in its target marketplaces.

The Company was incorporated as a Connecticut corporation in June 1990 and
was reincorporated in Delaware in September 1996. The Company's principal
executive office is located at 225 High Ridge Road, Stamford, Connecticut
06905, and its telephone number is (203) 329-3300.

ITDS is a service mark of the Company. All other service marks, trademarks

RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors should be considered carefully in addition to
the other information in this Prospectus before purchasing the Common Stock
offered by this Prospectus. Except for the historical information contained
herein, the discussion in this Prospectus contains certain forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The cautionary statements made
in this Prospectus should be read as being applicable to all related
forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this Prospectus. The
Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed here.
Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include
those discussed below, as well as those discussed elsewhere herein.

Management of Growth
The Company has historically experienced rapid growth and expects to
experience considerable growth in the foreseeable future. The Company's total
revenues have increased from $3.1 million in fiscal 1993 to $23.4 million and
$80.4 million for fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1997 on a Pro Forma Basis,
respectively. As a result of the Intelicom Acquisition in early January 1998,
the Company substantially increased the size of its operations, as well as the
number of subscribers it serves. The growth in the size and complexity of its
business, as well as its customer base, has placed, and is expected to continue
to place, significant demands on the Company's administrative, operational and
financial personnel and systems. Additional expansion by the Company may
further strain the Company's management, financial and other resources. There
can be no assurance that the Company's systems, procedures, controls and
existing facilities will be adequate to support expansion of its operations.
The Company's future operating results will depend on the ability of its
officers and key employees to manage changing business conditions and to
implement and improve the operational, financial control and reporting
functions of the Company. If the Company is unable to manage expansion of its
operations, the quality of the Company's services, its ability to retain key
personnel and its business, financial condition and results of operations could
be materially adversely affected.

From January 1993 to March 1998, the number of the Company's employees
increased from 26 to 560 and the number of the Company's full-time consultants
increased from zero to 117. A substantial portion of the Company's current
employees and consultants joined the Company in January 1998, in conjunction
with the Intelicom Acquisition. The Company anticipates that continued growth
will require it to recruit and hire a substantial number of new development,
managerial, finance, sales and marketing support personnel. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in hiring or retaining any of the
foregoing personnel. The Company's ability to compete effectively and to manage
future growth, if any, will depend on its ability to improve operational
systems and to expand, train, motivate and manage its workforce.

Integration of Intelicom; Payment of Contingent Purchase Price
In January 1998, the Company completed the Intelicom Acquisition and
substantially increased the size of the Company's operations. For fiscal year
1997 on a Pro Forma Basis, revenue generated from the Intelicom business
represented approximately 70% of the Company's revenues, and Intelicom
employees and consultants represented 61.3% of the Company's employees and
consultants. The future success of the Company will depend in part upon whether
the integration of the two companies' businesses is achieved in an efficient
and effective manner; there can be no assurance that this will occur. The
integration of the finance and administrative operations and the product
offerings and platforms, and the coordination of the respective sales,
marketing and research and development efforts of ITDS and Intelicom will
require significant financial resources and attention from management. There
can be no assurance that such integration and coordination will be successful
or accomplished in a timely manner or that the anticipated economic,
operational and other benefits of the Intelicom Acquisition will be achieved.
The difficulties of such integration may be increased by the necessity of
coordinating the activities of ITDS facilities in Stamford, Connecticut with
Intelicom's facilities in Champaign, Illinois, each of which has a distinct
culture. The integration of Intelicom has required, and will continue to
require, the dedication of management resources which may temporarily divert
attention from the daily operations of the combined company.

In addition, in connection with the Intelicom Acquisition and subject to
the satisfaction of certain performance criteria, the Company may be required
to pay to CSC up to $6.0 million in cash on January 1, 1999.

Reliance On Significant Customers
The Company's largest two customers, Nextel and Western Wireless,
represented 25.7% and 10.3%, respectively, of the Company's 1997 revenues on a
Pro Forma Basis and 29.3% and 12.7%, respectively, of the Company's revenues

7
<PAGE>

for the first three months of 1998. It is likely that Nextel and Western
Wireless will each continue to represent over 10 percent of the Company's
revenues in the future. The Company has long-term contracts, ranging from two
to five years, with all of its significant customers. However, as a result of
the Intelicom Acquisition, the Company's relationships with its largest
customers have only been in place since January 1998. In addition, certain of
such customers have from time to time expressed concern regarding service
performed by Intelicom prior to the Intelicom Acquisition. The Company has
worked and continues to work with such customers to address these concerns.
There can be no assurance that the Company's customers will renew their
contracts with the Company at the end of the contract term or may not seek to
terminate their contracts on the basis of alleged contractual defaults or other
grounds. Certain of the Company's contracts do not require customers to make
any minimum purchases. Loss of all or a significant part of the business of any
of the Company's significant customers would have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Additionally, the acquisition by a third party of one of the Company's
significant customers could result in the loss of that customer and have a
material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of
operations of the Company. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with
Frontier Cellular, a cellular telephone service provider with which the Company
has an agreement for the development and delivery of a billing and customer
care system. The purpose of these discussions is to review and renegotiate the
terms of the development and delivery schedule for such system, including the
proposed functionality, cost of development and delivery schedule for such
system. There can be no assurance that any such proposed functionality, cost or
schedule will be mutually agreeable to the Company and Frontier Cellular, that
the Company's system will be adopted by Frontier Cellular or that Frontier
Cellular will be a customer of the Company in the future. See "Business--Sales
and Marketing."

Dependence on Key Personnel; New Management
The Company's performance depends substantially on the performance of its
executive officers and key employees. The Company's long-term success will
depend upon its ability to recruit, retain and motivate highly skilled
personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to attract, assimilate or retain highly
skilled personnel in the future. In addition, several members of the Company's
senior management team have only recently joined the Company. For example,
Peter P. Bassermann, the Company's President, joined the Company in September
1997, Paul K. Kothari joined the Company in late 1997 and began serving as the
Company's Chief Financial Officer in February 1998, and Susan L. Yezzi joined
the Company in late 1997 and assumed the role of the Company's Executive Vice
President of Operations--Champaign in February 1998. Each of Mr. Bassermann,
Mr. Kothari, Ms. Yezzi, Lewis D. Bakes, Peter L. Masanotti and Barry K. Lewis
have executed employment contracts with the Company. Mark D. Spitzer resigned
as Chief Financial Officer in September 1997 and was replaced by Alan K.
Greene, who served as Chief Financial Officer from September 1997 to February
1998. See "Business--Legal Proceedings." Although the Company believes that the
extensive industry experience of new members of management is essential to the
Company's growth and outweighs short employment history with the Company, there
can be no assurance that the assimilation of the new officers into their
managerial roles with the Company will be successful.

Fluctuations in Quarterly Performance
The Company's revenues and operating results may fluctuate from quarter to
quarter due to a number of factors, including the timing, size and nature of
the Company's contracts; the integration into the Company's consolidated
financial results of Intelicom and the lack of actual historical financial
results as a combined entity; long sales cycles typically associated with large
customers, which require the Company to make a substantial investment in the
conversion process prior to the generation of revenue; the hiring of additional
staff; seasonal variations in cellular telephone subscriptions; the timing of
the introduction and the market acceptance of new products or product
enhancements by the Company or its competitors; changes in the Company's
operating expenses; and fluctuations in economic and financial market
conditions. Fluctuations in quarterly operating results may result in

Rapidly Changing Telecommunications Market
Over the last decade, the market for telecommunications services has been
characterized by rapid technological developments, evolving industry standards,
dramatic changes in the regulatory environment and frequent new product
introductions. The Company's success will depend upon its ability to enhance
its existing products and services and to introduce new products and services
which will respond to these market requirements as they evolve. To date,
substantially all of the Company's revenues are attributable to wireless
customers. While the Company

<PAGE>

believes that its current systems and services will also permit it to attract
customers in other segments of the telecommunications services industry, there
can be no assurance that it will be able to do so. In addition, technologies,
services or standards may be developed which could require significant changes
in the Company's business model, development of new products, or provision of
additional services, at substantial cost to the Company. Such developments may
also result in the introduction of additional competitors into the marketplace.
Furthermore, if the overall market for telecommunications services fails to
evolve and converge in the manner contemplated by the Company or grows more
slowly than anticipated, or if the Company's products and services fail in any
respect to achieve market acceptance, there could be a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The
telecommunications industry is also characterized by significant and rapid
changes in strategic alignment. Merger or consolidation of one or more
telecommunications services providers could result in the loss to the Company
of customers or sales opportunities.

Demand for New Product Development

The Company believes that its future success depends in part upon its
ability to enhance its current solutions and develop new products and services
that address the increasingly complex needs of its customers. In addition, the
introduction of new products or services by third parties could render the
Company's existing solutions obsolete or unmarketable. The Company's ability to
anticipate changes in technology and successfully develop and introduce new or
enhanced products incorporating such technology on a timely basis will be
significant factors in its ability to remain competitive. There can be no
assurance that the Company will complete the development of new or enhanced
products or services on a timely or successful basis or successfully manage
transitions from one product release to the next, that the Company will not
encounter difficulties or delays in the introduction of new or enhanced
products, or that defects will not be found in such new or enhanced products
after installation, resulting in a loss of, or delay in, market acceptance. In
particular, the Company is currently developing a series of enhancements to its
existing software system, including incorporation of a Windows 95 compatible
user interface, incorporation of an Oracle relational database management
system, and support of Unix based file servers. The Company believes that these
enhancements will permit the Company to compete effectively as technology
evolves and facilitate its ability to address the requirements of larger
telecommunications services providers. If the Company is unable to introduce
these new enhancements on a timely basis, or such enhancements result in the
introduction of "bugs" or other performance impairments in the Company's
systems, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations
could be materially adversely affected, and its ability to expand its sales
activities could be significantly limited. See "Business--New Products."

Competition

The market for billing, customer care and management information systems
for the telecommunications services industry is highly competitive and the
Company expects that the high level of growth within the telecommunications
services industry will encourage new entrants, both domestically and
internationally, in the future. The Company competes with independent providers
of transactional systems and services, with internal billing departments of
telecommunications services providers and with the billing services of
management consulting companies. The Company anticipates continued growth in
competition in the telecommunications services industry and consequently the
entrance of new competitors into its market in the future.

Many of the Company's current and potential future competitors have
significant financial, technical and marketing resources and have greater name
recognition than the Company. In addition, many of the Company's competitors
have established commercial relationships or joint ventures with major cellular
and other telecommunications services providers. As a result, the Company's
competitors may be able to adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies
and changes in customer requirements, or to devote greater resources to the
promotion and sale of products than the Company. See "Business--Competition."

Dependence on Cellular Telephone Industry

Although the Company's products have been designed to adapt to a variety
of current and future technologies, substantially all of the Company's revenues
to date have been generated by sales of its solutions to service providers in
the cellular telephone industry. A decrease in the number of cellular service
subscribers served by the Company's customers could result in lower revenues
for the Company. Although the cellular market has experienced substantial
growth in the number of subscribers in the past, there can be no assurance that
such growth will be sustained. In

9
<PAGE>

addition, industry reports have indicated that the average monthly bill per
subscriber has decreased in recent years. Such decreases could result in
increased price competition among billing service providers. Furthermore, any
adverse development in the cellular telephone industry could have a material
adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations
of the Company. See "Business--Customers."

Dependence on Proprietary Technology

The Company's success is dependent in part upon its proprietary software
technology. The Company relies on trademark, copyright and trade secret laws,
employee and third-party non-disclosure agreements and other methods to protect
its proprietary rights. There can be no assurance that its agreements with
employees, consultants and others who participate in the development of its
software will not be breached, that the Company will have adequate remedies for
any breach, or that the Company's trade secrets will not otherwise become known
to or independently developed by competitors. Furthermore, there can be no
assurance that the Company's efforts to protect its rights through trademark
and copyright laws will prevent the development and design by others of
products or technology similar to or competitive with those developed by the
Company. The computer technology industry is characterized by frequent and
substantial intellectual property litigation. The Company is not aware of any
patent infringement or any violation of other proprietary rights claimed by any
third party relating to the Company or the Company's products.

The Company's success will depend in part on its continued ability to
obtain and use licensed technology that is important to certain functionalities
of its products. The inability to continue to procure or use such technology
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. See "Business--Proprietary Rights and
Licenses."

Government Regulation

Currently, the Company's business is not subject to direct government
regulation; however, the Company's existing and potential customers are subject
to extensive regulation. Changes in regulation which adversely affect the
Company's existing and potential customers could have a material adverse effect
on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company.
See "Business--Industry Background."

Limited Public Market; Possible Volatility of Stock Price

The Common Stock has traded on the Nasdaq National Market since October
1996 and has a limited public market history. There can be no assurance that
future market prices for the shares will equal or exceed the price to public
set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus. The price at which the Common
Stock will trade could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to quarterly
fluctuations in operating results; announcements of technological innovations
or new products by the Company or its competitors; changes in financial
estimates by securities analysts; fluctuations in economic and financial market
conditions, or other events or factors. In addition, the stock market has
experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly
affected the market price of equity securities of many high technology
companies and that often have been unrelated to the operating performance of
such companies. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market
price of a company's securities, securities class action litigation has often
been instituted against such a company. Such litigation could result in
substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources,
which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. These broad market fluctuations may
adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock. See "--Fluctuations in
Quarterly Performance."

Risks Related to Possible Acquisitions

The Company's strategy includes pursuing additional acquisitions that will
complement its business. See "Business--The ITDS Strategy." There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to identify, acquire on commercially
reasonable terms or at all, or profitably manage additional businesses or
successfully integrate acquired businesses into the Company without substantial
expenses, delays or other operational or financial difficulty. Furthermore,
acquisitions may involve a number of special risks, including, but not limited
to: (i) diversion of management's attention, (ii) possible failure to retain
acquired key personnel, (iii) unanticipated events or circumstances, (iv) risks
of entering markets in which the Company has no or limited prior experience,
(v) financial integration or (vi) legal liabilities. Customer satisfaction or
performance problems at a single acquired

10
<PAGE>

business could have a material adverse effect on the reputation of the Company
as a whole. In addition, there can be no assurance that acquired businesses
will achieve anticipated financial performance. While the Company from time to
time considers acquisition opportunities, it has no existing agreements,
understandings or commitments to effect any material acquisition. The failure
of the Company to manage its acquisition strategy successfully could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operation results and
financial condition. See "--Integration of Intelicom; Payment of Contingent
Purchase Price."

Certain Anti-Takeover Effect Provisions Affecting Stockholders

The Company's certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate of
Incorporation") and by-laws (the "By-laws") provide that any action required or
permitted to be taken by stockholders of the Company must be effected at a duly
called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be effected by any
consent in writing, and require reasonable advance notice by a stockholder of a
proposal or director nomination which such stockholder desires to present at
any annual or special meeting of stockholders. Special meetings of stockholders
may be called only by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer
or, if none, the President of the Company or by the Board of Directors. The
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws provide for a classified Board of
Directors, and members of the Board of Directors may be removed only for cause
upon the affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of the shares of
capital stock of the Company entitled to vote. The Board of Directors has the
authority, without further action by the stockholders, to fix the rights and
preferences of, and issue shares of, the Company's authorized Preferred Stock.
The rights of the holders of Common Stock will be subject to, and may be
adversely affected by, the rights of any holders of Preferred Stock that may be
issued in the future. The Company has no present plans to issue any shares of
the Company's Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company is subject to the anti-
takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
which prohibit the Company from engaging in a "business combination" with an
"interested stockholder" for a period of three years after the date of the
transaction in which such stockholder became an "Interested Stockholder" unless
the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. The application of
Section 203 could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control
of the Company. These provisions, and the provisions of the Certificate of
Incorporation and By-laws, may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers
or delaying or preventing changes in control or management of the Company,
including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium
for their shares over then current market prices. In addition, these provisions
may limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may
deem to be in their best interests.

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

Sales of a substantial number of shares of Common Stock in the public
market following this offering could adversely affect the market price for the
Common Stock. Upon completion of this offering, the Company will have
approximately 17,171,659 outstanding shares of Common Stock (based on the
number of shares outstanding on March 31, 1998), of which approximately
1,101,714 shares will be held by affiliates (as that term is defined in Rule
144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")) of the
Company and 606,673 shares are held by CSC (the "CSC Shares"). The shares held
by affiliates may only be resold in the public market in accordance with the
provisions of Rule 144. The CSC Shares will become eligible for resale in the
public market in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 on January 2, 1999.
However, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to cause a registration
statement covering the CSC Shares to be declared effective by the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on or before July 1, 1998. Pursuant
to such registration rights, (i) beginning July 1, 1998, CSC may sell up to 50%
of the CSC Shares; (ii) beginning January 1, 1999, CSC may sell up to the sum
of (x) 50% of the CSC Shares and (y) the maximum number of CSC Shares that CSC
would otherwise be entitled to sell under Rule 144 of the Securities Act and
(iii) beginning July 2, 1999, CSC may sell any remaining CSC Shares.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of 3,750,000 shares of
Common Stock offered by the Company hereby at an assumed offering price of
$28.75 per share are estimated to be $102,091,406, after deducting the
underwriting discount and commission and estimated offering expenses payable by
the Company. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares
of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to repay
$70 million outstanding under the Company's current term loan under the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 18, 1998, among ITDS,
Intelicom, the lenders party thereto, First Union National Bank as
Administrative Agent and Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. as Arranger (the "Credit
Agreement"), which amount was borrowed to finance a portion of the purchase
price in the Intelicom Acquisition. The Credit Agreement contains normal
covenants which include meeting certain financial ratios and it requires
payments of interest only at the rate of LIBOR plus two and one quarter percent
through March 30, 2000, at which time periodic principal payments will become
due. Principal payments of $1.25 million, $4.375 million, $5.625 million and
$6.25 million, respectively, will become due on a quarterly basis, beginning
March 30, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. See "Underwriting."

In addition, the Company may seek acquisitions of businesses, products and
technologies that are complementary to those of the Company, and a portion of
the remaining net proceeds, if any, may be used for such acquisitions. While
the Company engages from time to time in discussions with respect to potential
acquisitions, the Company has no plans, commitments or agreements with respect
to any such acquisitions as of the date of this Prospectus, and there can be no
assurances that any such acquisitions will be made. Pending such uses, the
Company intends to invest the net proceeds from this offering not used to repay
indebtedness in short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing instruments.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements
reflect the Intelicom Acquisition and combine the historical consolidated
financial statements of ITDS and Intelicom for the periods indicated using the
purchase method of accounting.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet reflects the
adjustments as if the Intelicom Acquisition had occurred on December 31, 1997.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of income has been prepared
assuming the Intelicom Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1997. These pro
forma statements should be read in conjunction with "Capitalization," "1997 Pro
Forma Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and the historical
financial statements and related notes of ITDS and Intelicom. The historical
financial statements of Intelicom have been adjusted to conform with the
Company's December 31 year-end for purposes of the pro forma financial
statements.

The pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared using
the following assumptions:

[bullet] ITDS acquired the outstanding capital stock of Intelicom for $75.8
million in cash (which amount is net of working capital of $14.2
million retained by CSC), subject to adjustment based on the level
of receivables, payables and employment related items at the
closing date, and 606,673 shares of Common Stock of ITDS (then
valued at $10 million) on January 2, 1998. Additionally, ITDS will
be required to pay CSC up to $6 million on January 1, 1999 if
certain performance criteria have been met on that date. The amount
paid, if any, will be recorded as goodwill when the final amount is
known. ITDS also incurred direct costs of approximately $2 million.
These costs consist primarily of legal, accounting and financial
advisory fees.

[bullet] ITDS borrowed $70 million, on a long-term basis, to finance a
portion of the cash component of the Intelicom Acquisition and
incurred direct financing fees of approximately $1.5 million. See
"1997 Pro Forma Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

[bullet] It was assumed that ITDS incurred approximately $5 million, before
income tax benefit, in indirect transaction and combination costs.
These costs consist primarily of employment and personnel related
costs, the majority of which were expensed in the first quarter of
1998. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets and
liabilities of Intelicom based on their fair values at the date of
acquisition. The purchase price in excess of the fair value of the
net assets acquired was assumed to be approximately $51.6 million
and will be amortized over 15 years. In addition, purchased
research and development costs of approximately $20.8 million,
before income tax benefit, were expensed in the first quarter of
1998. The $5 million and the $20.8 million discussed above have
been excluded from the pro forma statement of income for the year
ended December 31, 1997 and are included in the adjustments to the
pro forma balance sheet as of December 31, 1997.

Pro forma adjustments to the consolidated statement of income reflecting
anticipated cost savings and other synergies, if any, resulting from the
integration of ITDS and Intelicom are, under most circumstances, not permitted
and, accordingly, have not been reflected in the pro forma financial
statements. However, an adjustment to reverse a credit granted by Intelicom to
a major customer ($4.7 million) for obligations relating to services provided
prior to the acquisition by ITDS was recorded as this item is non-recurring and
directly related to the transaction.

The pro forma financial results are not intended to be a projection of
future results and are not necessarily indicative of the results which would
have occurred if the business combination had been in effect on the dates
presented.

1997 PRO FORMA FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company derives substantially all of its revenue (i) primarily from
service contracts, which are generally billed monthly, under which a customer
contracts with the Company to operate and maintain such customer's
transactional billing system; (ii) to a lesser extent, from the development of
new software, the enhancement of existing installed systems and the provision
of related customer maintenance and training, which are largely billed on a
time and materials basis. Service revenue is recognized in the period in which
the services are provided and revenue from the development of software is
recognized at the time the services are performed. On a Pro Forma Basis,
service revenue relating to the operation of customers' billing systems
accounted for approximately 90% of total revenue in 1997.

Operating expenses are comprised primarily of the salaries and benefits of
technical service representatives, operations personnel, quality assurance
representatives and consultants and costs to produce and distribute invoices
for customers.

General, administrative and selling expenses consist mainly of the
salaries and benefits of management and administrative personnel and general
office administration expenses (rent and occupancy, telephone and other office
supply costs) of the Company.

The Company capitalizes software development costs incurred in the
development of software used in its product and service line only after
establishing commercial and technical viability and ceases capitalizing such
costs when the product is available for general release. The capitalized costs
include salaries and related payroll costs incurred in the development
activities. Software development costs are carried at cost less accumulated
amortization. Amortization is computed by using the greater of the amount that
results from applying the ratio of current revenue for the product over total
revenue for the product or the straight-line method over the remaining useful
life of the product. Generally, such deferred costs are amortized over five
years.

Results of Operations on a Pro Forma Basis

On a Pro Forma Basis, revenue was approximately $80.4 million for fiscal
1997, reflecting revenue for ITDS (not including Intelicom) of approximately
$23.4 million, and revenue for Intelicom of approximately $57.0 million,
including an adjustment of $4.7 million. Revenue for Intelicom increased from
approximately $31.2 million for the fiscal year ended March 29, 1996 to
approximately $42.2 million for the fiscal year ended March 28, 1997.

On a Pro Forma Basis, operating costs and expenses were approximately
$35.3 million for 1997, reflecting operating costs and expenses for ITDS (not
including Intelicom) of approximately $8.5 million and operating costs and
expenses for Intelicom of approximately $26.8 million. Also included in
operating costs and expenses on a Pro Forma Basis were system development and
programming costs of $9.5 million (including $2.9 million for ITDS (not
including Intelicom) and $6.6 million for Intelicom), which were comprised
primarily of employee salaries and benefits and consultant fees related to
internal software development.

General, administrative and selling expenses on a Pro Forma Basis were
approximately $22.2 million for 1997, reflecting general, administrative and
selling expenses for ITDS (not including Intelicom) of approximately $6.8
million and general, administrative and selling expenses for Intelicom of
approximately $15.4 million.

Operating income on a Pro Forma Basis was approximately $13.3 million for
1997, reflecting operating income for ITDS (not including Intelicom) of
approximately $6.5 million and operating income for Intelicom of approximately
$6.8 million. The Intelicom operating income reflects pro forma adjustments of
(i) $4.7 million to reverse credits given to an Intelicom customer for
obligations relative to services provided prior to the Intelicom Acquisition,
(ii) $6.6 million to record an amortization expense related to goodwill and
software development costs recorded as part of the Intelicom Acquisition and
(iii) $9.3 million to reverse historical amortizations recorded by Intelicom.

20
<PAGE>

Interest expense on a Pro Forma Basis was approximately $6.0 million for
1997, reflecting interest expense for ITDS (not including Intelicom) of
$100,000 and a pro forma adjustment of $5.9 million to reflect interest expense
(assuming an interest rate of 8%) and the amortization of financing costs for
the Company's $70 million term loan under the Credit Agreement.

Net income on a Pro Forma Basis was approximately $5.2 million for 1997
reflecting net income of $4.8 million for ITDS (not including Intelicom) and
net income of $400,000 for Intelicom, including net adjustments of $920,000. On
a Pro Forma Basis, 1997 basic and diluted earnings per share were $.39 and
$.37, respectively. The actual 1997 basic and diluted earnings per share for
ITDS (not including Intelicom) were $.38 and $.36, respectively. The pro forma
net income and per share amounts reflect the adjustments described above.

The Intelicom Acquisition is expected to more than triple the Company's
revenue in 1998 compared to ITDS' actual revenue in 1997. However, management
expects 1998 margins as a percentage of revenue to decline when compared to
actual 1997 margins, due to the historically lower margins of Intelicom and an
expected increase in the Company's overall development and customer service
costs. Management anticipates cost savings in 1998, resulting primarily from
the elimination of CSC's overhead allocation. These lower margins are expected
to improve during 1999 as the efficiencies of the Intelicom Acquisition are
realized.

Liquidity

As of December 31, 1997, on an actual and pro forma basis as if the
Intelicom Acquisition occurred on December 31, 1997, respectively, ITDS had
cash and cash equivalents of $29.0 million and $23.1 million, trade accounts
and receivables of $5.0 million and $9.4 million, and working capital of $32.6
million and $16.9 million.

On January 2, 1998, ITDS acquired Intelicom for 606,673 shares of Common
Stock of the Company and $75.8 million in cash, plus a future contingent
payment of up to $6 million. A portion of the cash purchase price for Intelicom
was obtained by ITDS under the Credit Agreement which provides for a $70
million term loan and a $30 million line of credit. See "Use of Proceeds" and
"Underwriting." The Credit Agreement contains normal covenants which include
meeting certain financial ratios and it requires payments of interest only, at
a rate of LIBOR plus two and one quarter percent, through March 30, 2000, at
which time periodic principal payments will become due. Principal payments of
$1.25 million, $4.375 million, $5.625 million and $6.25 million will become due
quarterly beginning March 30, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively. In
addition, the Company has entered into a hedging agreement with a third party,
pursuant to which the Company pays a fixed interest rate of 8% with respect to
$35 million of the amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The Company
plans to use the proceeds of this offering to pay off all amounts under the
Credit Agreement. See "Use of Proceeds."

The Company believes that its existing capital resources as well as funds
available under the Credit Agreement are adequate to meet its cash requirements
for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance, however, that changes in
the Company's plans or other events affecting the Company's operations will not
result in accelerated or unexpected expenditures.

In addition to the proceeds to the Company from this offering, the Company
may seek additional funding through public or private financing. There can be
no assurance, however, that additional financing will be available from any of
these sources or will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

Year 2000

The Company is preparing all of its products and internal computer systems
to be Year 2000 compliant. A compliance task force has been established, and is
currently identifying and developing conversion strategies for the Company's
systems. The Company expects to replace some of its systems and to upgrade
others. The Company currently estimates the compliance effort, including
planning, implementation and testing, to cost approximately $2 million to $3
million, and expects that a substantial portion of this expenditure will occur
in 1998. Although the Company does not expect the cost to have a material
adverse effect on its business or future results of operations, there can be no
assurance that the Company will not be required to incur significant
unanticipated costs in relation to its compliance obligations. The Company
currently estimates that compliance will be achieved in early 1999, however,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to complete the
conversion in a timely manner or that third party software suppliers will be
able to timely provide Year 2000 compliant products for the Company to install.

BUSINESS

ITDS is a leading provider of comprehensive billing, customer care and
management information solutions to providers of wireless and satellite
telecommunications services. The Company currently supports over 5 million
subscribers in more than 200 wireless markets. The Company uses its proprietary
software technology to develop solutions which address billing and customer
care requirements as they evolve, regardless of a service provider's market
segment, geographic area or mix of network features and billing options. The
Company currently serves leading national and regional wireless
telecommunications companies in the United States, including Aliant, Dobson,
Nextel, Omnipoint, Southwestern Bell, Sygnet, Western Wireless and WorldCom.
Typically, the Company provides its services under contracts with terms ranging
from two to five years, and bills customers monthly, on a per-subscriber basis.
As a result, substantially all of the Company's revenue is derived from bill
processing services, which are recurring in nature, and such revenue generally
increases as the number of subscribers served by the Company grows.

In January 1998, the Company completed the Intelicom Acquisition.
Intelicom provides complete billing and customer care solutions for the
wireless communication industry, including cellular, PCS, paging and ESMR.
Revenue for Intelicom for the year ended December 31, 1997 was approximately
$57.0 million, or approximately 71% of the Company's 1997 revenues on a Pro
Forma Basis. Primarily as a result of the Intelicom Acquisition, the number of
subscribers supported by the Company increased from 735,000 in January 1997 to
approximately 4.6 million in January 1998. Intelicom's data center is located
in Champaign, Illinois. The Company believes there are strong synergies between
the acquired platforms and applications and the ITDS platforms and applications
existing at the time of the Intelicom Acquisition. The Company intends to
reconfigure and combine certain of its platforms to reduce the number of total
platforms offered and to migrate desirable applications across its platform
offering.

In recent years, the telecommunications services industry has experienced
rapid growth and dramatic change, ranging from the introduction of such
technologies as cellular, PCS and satellite communications, to new features and
services, in a wide variety of combinations and at a great diversity of prices.
The Company's systems are designed to respond to the dynamic requirements of
this market for cost-effective billing and customer care solutions by drawing
on the Company's core technology and significant human resources. The Company's
systems support customers with subscriber bases ranging from under 100,000 to
in excess of 1 million. The Company's software currently supports leading
wireless telecommunications protocols, including Advanced Mobil Phone Systems
("AMPS"), Global System for Mobile Communication ("GSM"), Time Division
Multiple Access ("TDMA") and Code Division Multiple Access ("CDMA").

The Company's advanced billing, customer care and management information
systems form the foundation for a suite of applications that provide not only
subscriber billing and service support, but also the means to automate
subscriber activation, remittance processing, collections, data retrieval and
reporting, fraud management, electronic funds transfer, credit management,
inventory management and data archiving. The systems architecture permits
service providers to package functions and features, such as short messaging
service ("SMS"), dispatch and pre-paid calling, to meet a customer's specific
requirements. The Company's software and services allow its customers to
address the demands of a rapidly evolving marketplace by enabling them to
develop and support innovative rate and feature offerings without the delay and
cost associated with reconfiguring their billing and information systems; to
identify and respond to subscriber demands through analysis of billing and
subscriber databases; to reduce costs with accurate and timely receivables
information; and to manage the subscriber relationship in a comprehensive and
cost-effective manner.

Industry Background

General

In 1996, the U.S. telecommunications services industry generated
approximately $222 billion in revenue and has experienced rapid change and
greatly increased competition in recent years. Deregulation and rapid
technological advances are resulting in convergence of previously separate
segments of the telecommunications market. Markets that were once rigidly
segmented by service within geographical areas are converging into a single,
world-wide communications market, which includes both traditional service
providers and a variety of new participants. Each segment of these converging
markets is experiencing significant growth, increased complexity in service
offerings and greater competition.

22
<PAGE>

At the same time, rapidly evolving technical changes have dramatically
increased the features and services available to subscribers. These changes
have ranged from the evolution of entirely new communications media, such as
satellite transmission, to innovative services, such as PCS, to a rapidly
evolving and growing range of vertical services, such as short messaging
services, voice mail and paging. Many cellular providers are now offering such
innovative features as group ringing, which initiates a call on all of an
individual's lines (whether business, personal or mobile) and connects the call
as soon as one line is answered, and cell site sensitive billing, which, for
example, enables carriers to apply local wireline rates for calls to or from a
telephone within the vicinity of the subscriber's home or business and apply
cellular rates elsewhere. Improved switching technology is permitting local
exchange telecommunications services providers to offer a variety of new
features and services to their subscribers such as call delivery beyond the
subscriber's home area, call waiting, voice mail and others. Internationally,
privatization and deregulation are resulting in similar increases in
competition, the emergence of newly authorized telecommunications providers,
and the provision of additional features over a variety of media.

Wireless Communications

CTIA estimates that the number of wireless subscribers in the United
States increased from 500,000 in June 1986 to 55.3 million in December 1997. In
the twelve months ended December 1997, wireless providers generated more than
$27 billion in revenue in the United States. In addition to growth in the
cellular telephone market, the emergence of new wireless communications
technologies and services, such as PCS and satellite-based telephony, is
expected to increase the quality and capabilities of wireless communications,
including, to varying degrees, seamless roaming, increased service coverage,
improved signal quality and greater data transmission capacity.

While the number of cellular service subscribers in the United States has
grown substantially in recent years, the average revenue per user has declined
and is expected to decrease further. The CTIA has reported that revenue per
subscriber declined over 55% from December 1987 to December 1997. Cellular
service providers are experiencing increased price competition in the wireless
telecommunications industry as providers of PCS and other services enter the
geographic markets previously served only by cellular carriers, requiring the
cellular service providers to differentiate services and adopt innovative rate
tariffs.

Other Segments

Other segments of the telecommunications services industry are
experiencing similar change and convergence. Wireline providers, including
providers of local, long-distance, network access and related services,
provided services to approximately 171 million customers in the U.S.,
generating more than $196 billion in 1996. Deregulation has spurred the
creation of new entrants in both the local and long distance market, created an
environment for mergers and consolidation and has increased competitive pricing
pressures among all providers. Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs) and
long-distance providers compete with providers of wireless services through the
purchase of cellular companies and PCS licenses, wireline providers are
pursuing opportunities in the cable market and wireless providers are examining
wireless local loop and the traditional long distance market. At the same time,
utility companies are leveraging their existing electrical and fiber optic
infrastructures to provide telecommunications services to their customers. In
addition, on-line service providers, including companies such as America Online
and CompuServe, have generated a large and rapidly growing market for the
provision of a range of services including electronic mail, news, and other
information, as well as home shopping and access to the Internet.

Traditional Transactional Billing

Transactional billing is the process of matching specific calling events
with a subscriber database. Historically, this was primarily a billing process,
used in order to generate invoices for wireless, long-distance and local
service by individual and business users. The Company believes that recurring
billing is a carrier's most significant interface with the subscriber, and is
therefore a critical element of attracting, communicating with, and retaining
subscribers.

Many telecommunications services providers in the U.S. have traditionally
used transactional billing systems developed internally or through cooperative
joint ventures for operation on a provider's mainframe computer. These "legacy"
systems typically are difficult to maintain and modify, and often do not meet
the multiple and evolving needs of a service provider. Such systems often
cannot be integrated with other information sources within a provider's
organization, or databases outside an organization. Introduction of changes in
parameters such as price and service often requires significant reconfiguration
or reprogramming. These traditional means of billing and

23
<PAGE>

monitoring service have proven inadequate to respond to the evolving and
dynamic requirements of the telecommunications services marketplace. The
enormous growth in the number of subscribers, the decreasing revenue per
subscriber and the proliferation and range of services offered, require highly
capable, flexible and scalable support systems, which can adequately support
the size and nature of customer offerings on a cost effective basis.

Other service providers have elected to out-source billing and management
information-related functions because of the significant level of technological
expertise and capital resources required to implement systems successfully. In
addition, many emerging telecommunications services providers lack any
transactional billing infrastructure at all. One of the primary challenges that
these newer service providers face is to bring new services to market quickly.
They typically focus their capital resources on developing networking and
switching technology and on creating marketable services rather than on
managing billing systems. These providers typically seek to outsource the
billing functions because efficient flexible billing solutions are often too
costly and time consuming to develop and manage and staff internally.

As a result, service providers need billing, customer care and management
solutions which:

[bullet] enable them to differentiate their services in a highly competitive
and fungible market through the development, implementation and
support of a broad range of rate structures, services and features;

[bullet] respond quickly, efficiently and accurately to market-driven
demands, such as frequent changes in rate structures and innovative
marketing programs;

[bullet] integrate seamlessly with their corporate management information
services, so that providers can use the data generated for
operational and other strategic purposes as an integral part of
their marketing and sales plans;

[bullet] provide a basis for the efficient development and deployment of
solutions to address common industry issues such as authentication
management and local number portability; and

[bullet] offer reliability and accuracy as critical components of subscriber
relations, communication and retention.

The ITDS Solutions

The Company's solutions are based upon software systems that provide
reliable and accurate billing, customer care and management information
support, and enable the service provider to automate subscriber activation,
remittance processing, collections, data retrieval and reporting, fraud
management, electronic funds transfer, credit management, automation of
inventory management, and data archiving, running in either single or multiple
telecommunications services markets, including wireless, ESMR, paging and
satellite. In comparison with traditional solutions, the Company's software and
services:

[bullet] permit providers to develop, validate, implement and support rate
changes without the corresponding requirement to develop or change
support systems, reducing the time to introduce new marketing or
sales strategies;

[bullet] permit providers to introduce new features or combinations of
features, either directly or with others, on a timely basis;

[bullet] assure that providers have immediate access to multiple databases
on a fully-integrated basis, to improve marketing and sales
planning;

[bullet] deliver accurate, timely and useful billing information to
customers, regardless of mix or change in level of service and
rates, to facilitate customer attraction and retention; and

[bullet] improve providers' cash flows and reduce bad debt by detecting
fraud and delivering accurate and timely receivable and collection
information across systems and service offerings.

The Company's range of solutions enables the Company to deliver some or
all of the functionality described above to wireless service providers serving
different sized subscriber bases, employing different technologies and serving
different industry segments.

The ITDS Strategy

The Company's objective is to further its position as a leading provider
of billing and customer care services to telecommunications service providers
worldwide. Key elements of the Company's strategy include:

[bullet] Leverage Its Expanded Customer Base. Historically, the Company's
customer base had been limited to smaller and mid-sized wireless
providers. The Intelicom Acquisition in January 1998 enabled the
Company to penetrate the market of larger service providers and
substantially expanded the Company's subscriber base. The Company
believes that the new customers that it acquired as a result of the
Intelicom Acquisition will enable it to further penetrate the
market for larger telecommunications service providers. The
Company's expanded customer base enhances the Company's presence as
a provider of billing and customer care services to large wireless
service providers and demonstrates the Company's technological
capabilities in servicing additional customers with large
subscriber bases. In addition, the Company anticipates further
growth of its subscriber base as customers expand into new markets
and acquire businesses in new market segments.

[bullet] Efficiently Support Customer Needs. The Company intends to continue
to meet the specific needs of each of its existing customers by
using its broad technology base and its knowledge and experience in
the telecommunications industry to offer and support solutions and
platforms that offer functionality tailored to such customers'
specific needs. In addition, the Company intends to leverage its
technological expertise by making certain modules and
functionalities that are currently offered on some of its platforms
more broadly available across its platform offerings. By drawing on
the strengths of its overall product line, the Company expects to
offer its customers greater flexibility on its larger systems and
increased capacity and scalability on its smaller systems.

[bullet] Leverage Technology Features to Penetrate Related Market Segments.
The Company believes it is well positioned to leverage its
technology base by offering billing, customer care and management
information solutions to providers in non-wireless
telecommunications services market segments including satellite,
data transmission, Internet and other enhanced services. Expansion
into these additional sources of potential revenue are not expected
to require commensurate investment in software development because
the Company's existing core technology already meets the more
challenging and demanding requirements of the wireless segment of
the market, while enabling the Company to offer features and
functions to meet provider requirements.

[bullet] Achieve Greater Economic Potential of Combined Operations. The
Company currently sustains separate operations, including research
and development and customer support, in its Stamford, Connecticut
and Champaign, Illinois facilities. The Company believes that it
has significant opportunity to achieve greater economic
efficiencies by combining certain of its facilities' operations.
The Company intends to devote significant management and financial
resources to streamlining and combining operations in order to
achieve future cost reductions and improved product and services
margins.

[bullet] Expand International Operations. The Company believes that the
flexibility of its system will permit it to address the billing,
customer care and management information solutions requirements of
international telecommunications services providers without the
need for significant reconfiguration. For example, the Company's
systems currently support the provision of cellular services based
on GSM technology, which has been widely adopted outside the United
States, as well as other emerging digital services. The Company,
through its subsidiary ITDS LTDA, a Brazilian limitada, provides
billing services to MCOMCAST, S.A., a Brazilian limitada owned by
COMCAST International Holdings, Inc. and MCOM Wireless, S.A. In
1997, the Company established a presence in South America by
opening an office in Sao Paulo, Brazil and by the end of 1998, it
expects to establish a service bureau operation there from which it
will be able to provide billing services and support to Brazil.

[bullet] Continue to Pursue Strategic Acquisitions. As part of the Company's
expansion strategy, the Company completed the Intelicom Acquisition
in January 1998. The Company will continue to examine the
possibility of acquiring complementary organizations. The Company's
approach to acquisitions is to target firms that provide customers

Products and Services

Core Systems

The Company provides its customers with billing, customer care and
management information solutions through the use of its software systems and
the provision of billing and customer care services. The Company's software is
installed at a customer site to interface directly with the customer's systems
and generate relevant subscriber billing and other data, as well as to support
a wide range of transactional billing and subscriber management functions. The
Company uses its software to process the billing information, eliminating the
need for customers to maintain their own data processing operations.

As a result of the Intelicom Acquisition, the Company acquired additional
software platforms used to perform billing and customer care functions. The
Company believes there are strong synergies between the acquired platforms and
applications and the ITDS platforms and applications existing at the time of
the Intelicom Acquisition. The Company intends to reconfigure and combine
certain of its platforms to reduce the number of total platforms offered and to
migrate desirable applications across its platform offering. The Company
believes this strategy will improve the capabilities of its billing and
customer care services; reduce operating costs, both internally and for its
customers; and reduce subscriber impact in the event its customers change
platforms.

The Company's suite of applications allows customers the flexibility of
changing their billing and customer care services to implement, for example,
rate plan changes for access, toll usage or toll discounts. Drawing on their
client/server architecture, the Company's solutions can be integrated with a
customer's communication and data systems to provide customers with the ability
to generate up-to-date subscriber analysis and reports. To further assure their
operational flexibility and usefulness, the Company's systems support leading
industry standards such as the CIBER standard for the wireless clearinghouse
for AMPS, CDMA and TDMA wireless systems in the U.S. and the TAP standard for
international clearinghouse for GSM cellular systems.

The Company's solutions perform a broad range of transactional billing and
customer care functions, including customer acquisition and provisioning,
message rating and billing, customer care and revenue assurance. The
functionality available to the Company's customers depends upon the specific
solution deployed by the customer, and includes some or all of the applications
described below.

Customer Acquisition and Provisioning

The Company's customer acquisition and provisioning applications are
designed to facilitate customers' efforts to manage sales leads, qualify
subscribers, administer inventories, assign price plans, create and update
subscriber accounts and provision the appropriate network service. Some of the
key applications include:

Point Of Sale. The Company's Point Of Sale (POS) application creates and
controls work flows for the entire sales process. These work flows make
data entry more efficient and easier for the system user, and ensure that
all of the required subscriber information is accurately recorded. Advanced
hardware and software enable sales staff to quickly process initial service
applications, perform on-line credit checks with automatic scoring, update
inventories, print service agreements and payment receipts and accept
credit card payments. Although the Company's POS application is currently
limited to use with certain of the Company's platforms, the Company expects
that future versions of the application will be available for use with the
Company's other platforms and with other vendors' billing systems.

Inventory Administration. The Company's inventory administration
applications allow customers to perform extensive inventory management of
equipment, services and subscriber data, such as account numbers, mobile
directory numbers and international mobile subscriber identification
numbers. The Company's applications enable customers to manage and control
these inventory items, not only at the time of activation, but also during
the process of ordering, receiving and verification.

Provisioning of Network Services. The Company's TSI Vision application
integrates with a variety of network elements and databases to automate the
provisioning of servicing such as voice, voice mail, dispatch and short
message service.

Message Rating and Billing

The Company's message rating and billing applications provide its
customers robust capabilities in the following areas:

Data Collection. The Company's data collection application interfaces with
a variety of network elements to collect, forward and manage the process
flow of network calls, events and activities. This information is
distributed to a number of applications such as real-time rating, fraud
control and message rating and processing modules. The data collection
application supports real-time data collection from a network element via
electronic transmission over a direct network connection.

Message Rating. The Company's message rating applications provide its
customers with flexibility and control over their market pricing. The
authorized user can establish independent rating schedules for system usage
(airtime) and long distance (toll), enabling the Company's customers to
exercise a high degree of creativity and flexibility when developing
pricing strategy. In addition, real-time rating, which is currently
available on one of the Company's platforms, allows the Company's customers
to monitor subscriber account balances in real time. This application
allows the Company's customers to offer to their subscribers innovative
features, such as pre-paid calling. The Company's message rating
applications also support a variety of customer defined features including
flexible discounting, variable rounding of time, bundled minutes and
special phone numbers.

Message Processing. The Company's message processing applications manage a
complex set of rules and business logic to accurately calculate usage-based
pricing for customers' subscribers. These applications make the
determination of call inclusion or exclusion, length of call or event and
subscriber feature utilization, based in part upon the subscriber's price
plan, the physical location of the caller, time of day, day of week and
service utilized.

Bill Calculation and Processing. The Company's bill calculation and
processing applications ensure accuracy in the calculation of subscribers'
bills by performing a series of pre-runs, error correction and bill
verification routines. These activities are executed by both the Company
and its customers and ensure that billing information is timely and
accurate.

Customer Care

The Company's customer care applications permit a customer to apply and
execute a variety of subscriber payment options, to create service credit and
adjustments on-line, to generate notes and reminders and to execute alternate
collection strategies.

Front-End Services. The Company's front-end services applications support
the day-to-day operation of customers' billing and customer care functions
and forms the core of the Company's product and service offerings. The
applications consist of two components:

Credits and Adjustments. This application allows a customer's Customer
Service Representative ("CSR") to perform a variety of maintenance and
service functions on a subscriber's account. For example, the CSR can
issue call credits at the individual call level, groups of calls or
total amount, in order to correct erroneous bills. In addition, this
application allows a customer to control the degree of credit and
adjustment functionality given to each CSR.

Customer Maintained System Parameters. This application allows customers
to modify and update their business rules within various functions,
including rate plans, toll rates, discount schedules, cell site,
application profile and security. The application provides customers the
flexibility to address their dynamic market needs in real-time, without
the need for significant re-programming on the part of ITDS.

Payment Capabilities. The Company's payment applications provide several
methods and options for the receipt and processing of subscriber payments.
These processes, which are optional modules, can be independently deployed
by the customer and include not only traditional lockbox, but also credit
card, direct debit and bank draft.

Revenue Assurance

The Company's revenue assurance applications include system security,
general ledger interface and reporting capability, which ensure that customers'
processes are subject to the appropriate levels of control and system
auditability. The Company's applications satisfy the audit and control
requirements of the SAS 70 Accounting Standard.

New Products

The Company continues to refine its existing software and to introduce new
applications to meet evolving customer requirements. The Company is currently
developing a new platform, based on an open systems architecture, that has a
Windows 95-compatible user interface, supports an Oracle relational database
management system and operates on a UNIX-based file server. The Company
believes that this enhanced platform will address the needs of larger customers
that require substantial functionality on a scalable and interoperable basis.
The Company expects this platform to become available during the second half of
1998.

In addition, the Company intends to maximize its technological expertise
by developing new applications for use on all of its platforms and by making
certain applications that are currently offered on some of its platforms more
broadly available across its platform offerings. By drawing on the strengths of
its overall product line, the Company expects to offer greater flexibility on
its larger systems and increased capacity and scalability on its smaller
systems. The Company is currently evaluating its products and those of third
parties to determine an implementation strategy for such applications.

In 1997, the Company announced the successful implementation of fraud
management and authentication ("A-Key") functionality into its solutions. The
feature is compliant with EDI A-Key Guidelines published by CTIA and is also
capable of utilizing other formats pursuant to a customer's specific needs. The
Company is currently enhancing the product to provide a greater range of
functionality in A-Key management and expects the enhanced version to become
available by the middle of 1998.

In anticipation of possible future enhancements, the Company continually
reviews technological innovations and changing standards and services in the
industry. See "System Development."

Customers

The ITDS solutions currently support over 5 million subscribers in over
200 wireless markets, including 29 of the top 30 domestic markets. The Company
has 54 customers, including two customers that each represent more than 10% of
the Company's total revenue. These customers include a broad range of wireless
telecommunications service providers, serving different sized subscriber bases,
employing different technologies and focusing on different industry segments.
The Company's current customers include Aliant, Dobson, Nextel, Omnipoint,
Southwestern Bell, Sygnet, Western Wireless and WorldCom.

Many of the customers acquired by the Company through the Intelicom
Acquisition in January of 1998 have substantially larger subscriber bases than
the Company's existing customers at the time of the Intelicom Acquisition. The
Company's customers, other than those acquired in the Intelicom Acquisition,
have subscriber bases of up to approximately 300,000, while the customers
obtained through the Intelicom Acquisition have subscriber bases of up to in
excess of one million. Nextel and Western Wireless each represent over ten
percent of the Company's 1997 revenues on a Pro Forma Basis and it is likely
that they will continue to represent over ten percent of the Company's revenue
in the future. The loss of any such customer could have a material adverse
effect on the operating results of the Company. See "Risk Factors--Reliance on
Significant Customers."

The following provides a brief description of certain of the Company's key
customers:

<TABLE>

Customer Support and Training

The Company believes that because its solutions are critical to the
competitive success of its customers, the Company must provide a high level of
support from the time a customer converts to the Company's software and
continuing through the on-going provision of transactional billing and customer
care services. The Company assigns to each new customer a dedicated conversion
team that specializes in facilitating the transition onto the Company's
solutions by applying an implementation methodology which includes study of the
customer's needs, definition of relevant conversion requirements, and on-site
installation and training. This is followed up by systematic analysis of the
implementation process, live conversion and follow-up training as required to
meet the customer's requirements.

Thereafter, the Company assigns a support team, which may include an
account manager, a customer service team and a team of programmer/analysts for
on-going support of the customer's requirements, including implementation of
additional functionality if requested by the customer. In addition, the Company
provides a fully-staffed customer service department and 24-hour, 7 day a week
access to customer service representatives. The Company's senior management
meets with customers on a regularly scheduled basis to maintain a dialogue with
the customers and to identify, anticipate and meet evolving customer needs. The
Company also conducts focus groups to identify ways to improve system
efficiency.

The Company's service and support activities are supplemented by the
provision of on-going training classes to assist customers in utilizing the
system capabilities more effectively. Typically, the Company schedules two to
three such classes a month addressing different aspects of the customer care
billing and management information service process.

On March 31, 1998, the Company's customer service and support department
consisted of 141 people, with an additional 17 dedicated quality assurance
employees.

Sales and Marketing

ITDS targets telecommunications and non-telecommunications companies with
a need for transaction billing and customer care solutions. The Company's
strategy has been to establish, maintain and expand long-term customer
relationships.

Service providers' subscriber bases increase both through organic growth
and through additional market acquisitions. This generally results in
increasing recurring revenue for ITDS based on contract prices and volume of
subscribers. Additionally, as customers choose to add functionality and
capabilities to the Company's billing and customer care system, the Company
receives additional revenue for the development, integration, and maintenance
of these enhancements into the system platform. In the future, the Company
expects that an increasing percentage of its total revenues will be derived
from such development projects. The Company has also developed applications,
such as A-Key fraud management and point-of-sale system, that can stand alone,
either as part of the Company's platform or a competitors platform. The Company
believes these products are viable solutions to solving fraud and customer
acquisition issues for customers. The Company continues to explore
opportunities with new customers and expand its business with its existing
customers. In addition, the Company intends to pursue opportunities in the
international market which it finds advantageous to its distribution and
marketing strategy.

The Company has contracts with its customers with terms ranging from two
to five years. Although these contracts are generally of a long-term nature,
there can be no assurance that any customer will renew its contract with the
Company at the end of the contract term or may not seek to terminate its
contract on the basis of alleged contractual defaults or other grounds. Loss of
all or a significant part of the business of any of the Company's substantial
customers would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition, and results of operations.

Historically, the Company has achieved substantial growth with a core
marketing team of senior executives. Although the Company has recently begun to
expand its sales and marketing group as part of its overall strategy to add
customers, the Company's senior executives continue to be heavily involved in
the sales and marketing processes.

System Development

The Company's research and development efforts are focused on enhancing
existing products and services as well as developing products, features and
services that can be integrated into the Company's current solutions. The
Company's product development team reviews product and service development
proposals and establishes internal guidelines for efficient development. The
Company's research and development team also works closely with customers to
perform customization of products to meet specific needs, which may include the
integration of third party applications into the Company's existing products.
In addition to internal development, the Company works with its strategic
partners, such as Hewlett-Packard and Oracle, to develop products compatible
with their product offerings. Currently, the Company has a number of new
enhancements under development to meet evolving customer requirements.

The Company intends to reconfigure and combine certain of its platforms to
reduce the number of total platforms offered and to migrate desirable
applications across its platform offering. No assurance can be given, however,
that the Company will be able to successfully develop and implement such
functionality, or that the Company will be able to introduce such functionality
on a timely or cost-effective basis.

The Company actively participates in industry standards associations to
assure that its development efforts are in compliance with standards as they
evolve and to assure that the Company's software can be used on a fully open
and interoperable basis. For example, the Company works closely with a variety
of standards committees and working groups of CIBERNET, the standards body of
CTIA. The Company participates in the CIBERNET Advisory Committee, which
evaluates proposed changes to standards for wireless industry data exchange;
the CIBERNET Net Settlement Working Group, which evaluates proposed changes to
the subscriber net settlement process; and the CIBERNET Data Message Handler
Working Group, which focuses on billing aspects of the TIA IS-124 standard. In
addition, the Company participates in CTIA's International Forum for AMPS
Standard, and the Bellcore Ordering and Billing Forum and CTIA's Local Number
Portability group.

On March 31, 1998, the Company employed 351 people in product and systems
development and engaged 99 independent contractors in conjunction with the
continued development of its software products, programming and development.

Competition

The market for billing, customer care and management information systems
for the telecommunications service industry is highly competitive and the
Company expects that the high level of growth within the telecommunications
service industry will encourage new entrants, both domestically and
internationally, in the future. The Company competes with independent providers
of transactional systems and services, with internal billing departments of
telecommunications services providers and with the billing services of
management consulting companies. The Company believes its most significant
competitors in the wireless telecommunications segment are, within the service
bureau model, Alltel Information Systems, Inc. and Cincinnati Bell Information
Systems, Inc. and, within the licensing model, Amdocs, Ltd., LHS Group Inc. and
Saville Systems PLC. In the future, the Company may compete in both the
wireless and wireline markets with additional companies that currently compete
in market segments other than wireless. In addition, the Company competes with
several international providers of billing, customer care and management
information systems and, as the Company continues to expand into international
markets, it will compete with additional providers abroad.

The Company believes that principal competitive factors include the
ability to provide timely products, features and services that are responsive
to evolving customer needs in an industry characterized by rapidly changing
technologies and ongoing deregulation. The Company must provide statement
accuracy, meet billing cycle deadlines, offer competitive pricing and maintain
high product and service quality. The Company believes that its architecture
enables it to compete favorably in the telecommunications services industry by
offering its customers a high degree of flexibility to quickly modify their
billing, customer care and management systems as their needs and the needs of
their subscribers change. See "Risk Factors--Competition."

Proprietary Rights and Licenses

The Company relies in part on trademark, copyright and trade secret laws
to protect its proprietary rights. The Company distributes its products under
service and software license agreements which typically grant customers
non-exclusive licenses, subject to terms and conditions prohibiting
unauthorized reproduction, transfer or use. The

31
<PAGE>

Company believes that because of the rapid pace of technological change in the
telecommunications and software industries, the technological expertise of its
personnel, the complexity of its system architecture and the frequency and
timeliness of product and service offerings are more significant than the legal
protection of its products. In addition, the Company enters into non-disclosure
agreements with each employee and consultant and each third-party to whom the
Company provides proprietary information. Access to the Company's core source
code is greatly restricted.

The Company licenses from third parties technology that is important to
certain functionalities of its products. The Company is not aware of any patent
infringement or any violation of other proprietary rights claimed by any third
party relating to the Company or the Company's products. See "Risk
Factors--Dependence on Proprietary Technology."

Employees

As of March 31, 1998, the Company had a total of 560 employees, of whom
132 were engaged in customer service, 351 were engaged in systems programming
and development, 17 in quality assurance, 7 in sales and marketing, 38 in
administration and 15 in documentation and training. None of the Company's
employees is represented by labor unions. The Company believes that its
employee relations are good. The Company also employs 117 full-time
consultants.

Properties

The Company subleases a 48,222 square foot facility in Stamford,
Connecticut, and a 60,000-square foot facility in Champaign, Illinois for
systems and programming, client service, operations, quality assurance,
documentation and training, and administration. The Company's headquarters are
located at the Stamford facility.

Legal Proceedings

On April 2, 1998, the Company was served with a complaint in Connecticut
Superior Court alleging that the Company had breached the terms of its
employment contract with Alan K. Greene, the Company's former Chief Financial
Officer, and breached other obligations to Mr. Greene. The Company intends to
vigorously defend itself in the action and is currently preparing a response to
the claim and file a counterclaim against Mr. Greene.

In addition, Intelicom, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company acquired
in January 1998 from CSC, is party to litigation and has been threatened with
litigation in connection with the operation of its business prior to its
acquisition by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Intelicom Acquisition,
CSC and certain of its affiliates are obligated to defend and indemnify the
Company against obligations arising out of such litigation or threatened
litigation.

The Company does not believe that any liabilities relating to any of the
legal proceedings to which it is a party are likely to be, individually or in
the aggregate, material to its consolidated financial position or results of
operations.

UNDERWRITING

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, the
form of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which
this Prospectus forms a part, the Company and the Selling Stockholders have
agreed to sell to each of the Underwriters named below, and each of such
Underwriters, for whom Lehman Brothers Inc., BT Alex. Brown Incorporated, Cowen
& Company and Jefferies & Company, Inc. are acting as representatives (the
"Representatives"), has severally agreed to purchase from the Company and the
Selling Stockholders, the respective number of shares of Common Stock set forth
opposite its name below:

BT Alex. Brown Incorporated ..................
Cowen & Company ..............................
Jefferies & Company, Inc. ....................

Total ........................................ 4,300,000
=========
</TABLE>

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the
Underwriters to purchase the shares of Common Stock are subject to certain
conditions, and that if any of the foregoing shares of Common Stock are
purchased by the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, then all
of the shares of Common Stock agreed to be purchased by the Underwriters
pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement must be so purchased.

The Company and the Selling Stockholders have been advised that the
Underwriters propose to offer the shares of Common Stock in part directly to
the public at the offering price set forth on the cover page of this
Prospectus, and in part to certain selected dealers (who may include the
Underwriters) at such public offering price less a selling concession not in
excess of $ per share. The Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may
reallow, a concession not in excess of $ per share to certain brokers and
dealers. After this offering, the public offering price, the concession to
selected dealers and the reallowance may be changed by the Underwriters.

The Company and one of the Selling Stockholders have granted to the
Underwriters options to purchase up to an aggregate of 645,000 additional
shares of Common Stock, at the public offering price, less the aggregate
underwriting discounts and commissions shown on the cover page of this
Prospectus, exercisable solely to cover over-allotments, if any. Such options
may be exercised at any time until 30 days after the date of the Underwriting
Agreement. To the extent that the options are exercised, the Underwriters will
be committed, subject to certain conditions, to purchase a number of additional
shares of Common Stock proportionate to such Underwriter's initial commitment
as indicated in the preceding table and the Company and one of the Selling
Stockholders will be obligated, pursuant to such over-allotment options to sell
such shares of Common Stock to the Underwriters.

The Company has agreed that, without the prior written consent of Lehman
Brothers Inc., it will not, subject to certain limited exceptions, directly or
indirectly, offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock, or
any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any such
shares, for the period ending 90 days after the date of this Prospectus. All of
the executive officers and directors of the Company and the Selling
Stockholders have agreed pursuant to lock-up agreements that, without the prior
written consent of Lehman Brothers Inc., they will not, subject to certain
limited exceptions, directly or indirectly, offer, sell or otherwise dispose of
any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable
or exercisable for any such shares for the period ending 90 days after the date
of this Prospectus.

The Company and the Selling Stockholders have agreed to indemnify the
Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act and to contribute, under certain circumstances, to payments that
the Underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

Until the distribution of the Common Stock is completed, rules of the
Commission may limit the ability of the Underwriters and certain selling group
members to bid for and purchase shares of Common Stock. As an

37
<PAGE>

exception to these rules, the Representatives are permitted to engage in
certain transactions that stabilize the price of the Common Stock. Such
transactions may consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging,
fixing or maintaining the price of the Common Stock.

If the Underwriters create a short position in the Common Stock in
connection with this offering (i.e., if they sell more shares of Common Stock
than the number of shares set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus), the
Representatives may reduce that short position by purchasing Common Stock in
the open market. The Representatives also may elect to reduce any short
position by exercising all or part of the over-allotment option described
herein.

The Representatives also may impose a penalty bid on certain Underwriters
and selling group members. This means that if the Representatives purchase
shares of Common Stock in the open market to reduce the Underwriters' short
position or to stabilize the price of the Common Stock, they may reclaim the
amount of the selling concession from the Underwriters and selling group
members who sold those shares as part of this offering.

In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to
reduce a syndicate short position could cause the price of the security to be
higher than it might otherwise be in the absence of such purchases. The
imposition of a penalty bid might have an effect on the price of a security to
the extent that it were to discourage resales of the security by purchasers in
an offering.

Neither the Company nor any of the Underwriters makes any representation
or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the price of the Common Stock. In
addition, neither the Company nor any of the Underwriters makes any
representation that the Representatives will engage in such transactions or
that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without
notice.

Any offers in Canada will be made only pursuant to an exemption from the
requirements to file a prospectus in the relevant province of Canada in which
such offer is made.

Purchasers of the Common Stock offered hereby may be required to pay stamp
taxes and other charges in accordance with the laws and practices of the
country of purchase in addition to the offering price set forth on the cover
page hereof.

The Representatives have informed the Company that they do not intend to
confirm sales of Common Stock offered hereby to any accounts over which they
exercise discretionary authority.

Lehman Brothers Inc. acted as a financial advisor to the Company in its
acquisition of Intelicom in January 1998 and received customary fees and
expenses for its services. In addition, Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc., an
affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc., initially acted as administrative agent and
arranger and currently acts as arranger under the Company's Credit Agreement.
Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. received a customary financing fee in connection
with the Credit Agreement, and has retained approximately $13.0 million of such
indebtedness. The Company plans to use $70 million of the net proceeds from
this offering to repay such indebtedness, including all amounts owed to Lehman
Brothers Commercial Paper, Inc. An affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. and
certain of its employees own in the aggregate approximately 600,000 shares of
Common Stock of the Company.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the shares of Common Stock offered by the Company hereby
will be passed upon for the Company by Hale and Dorr LLP, Boston,
Massachusetts, and for the Underwriters by Chadbourne & Parke LLP, New York,
New York.

Report of Independent Auditors

Board of Directors
ITDS Intelicom Services, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ITDS Intelicom Services,
Inc., formerly known as CSC Intelicom, Inc. ("Intelicom"), as of March 28, 1997
and January 2, 1998, and the related statements of operations and shareholders'
net investment and cash flows for the years ended March 29, 1996 and March 28,
1997 and for the thirty-nine week period ended January 2, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of Intelicom's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Intelicom at March 28, 1997 and
January 2, 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years ended March 29, 1996 and March 28, 1997, and for the thirty-nine week
period ended January 2, 1998, in conformity with general accepted accounting
principles.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, a change in reporting entity
occurred on January 2, 1998. The financial statements for all periods presented
have been restated to reflect this change.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

ITDS is a leading provider of comprehensive transactional billing and
management information solutions to providers of wireless and satellite
telecommunications services. The Company uses its proprietary software
technology to develop billing solutions which address customer requirements as
they evolve, regardless of a service provider's market segment, geographic
area or mix of network features and billing options. Typically, the Company
provides its services under contracts with terms ranging from two to five years,
and bills customers monthly, on a per-subscriber basis. As a result,
substantially all of the Company's revenue is recurring in nature, and increases
as a provider's subscriber base grows.

Basis of Presentation

Stock Split

The Company effected a three-for-two stock split in the form of a 50%
stock dividend, to be distributed on March 9, 1998 to stockholders of record on
February 23, 1998. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts have been
adjusted to reflect this split.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets.

The Company capitalizes software development costs incurred in the
development of software used in its product and service line only after
establishing commercial and technical viability and ceases when the product is
available for general release. The capitalized costs include salaries and
related payroll costs incurred in the development activities. Software
development costs are carried at cost less accumulated amortization.
Amortization is computed by using the greater of the amount that results from
applying the ratio that current revenue for the product bears to total revenue
for the product or the straight-line method over the remaining useful life of
the product. Generally, such deferred costs are amortized over five years.
During the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, $166,292, $300,105 and
$518,398, respectively, of capitalized software development costs were
amortized.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues and costs associated with the recurring process of providing
billing and other service/ software solutions are recognized at the time
services are performed. License fees and related costs are recognized upon
execution of the licensing agreement and delivery of the software to the
customer, provided that the Company has no significant related obligations or
collection uncertainties remaining. Where there are significant obligations
related to the development and enhancement of the software, license fees are
recorded over the expected installation period or the term of the respective
contract. As of December 31, 1997, other assets includes approximately $865,000
for installation and related services that are being recorded over the
installation period. In addition, accounts receivable at December 31, 1996 and
1997 include $1,278,412 and $2,296,451, respectively, for services rendered
prior to December 31 which were billed in January of the following year when the
billing cycles were complete.

In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of" ("FAS 121"). FAS 121, which was adopted in 1996, requires companies to
investigate potential impairments of long-lived assets on an exception basis,
when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances have made
recovery of an asset's carrying value unlikely. The adoption of FAS 121 has not
had a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

1. BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of
three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of ITDS and consolidated
subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses
for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997 were $115,835, $194,097,
and $233,673, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

Reclassifications:

Certain reclassifications were made to conform prior years' data to the
current year's presentation.

Major Customers

Revenues generated from two customers accounted for approximately 15.2%
and 12.7% of 1995 revenues, 19.1% and 12.5% of 1996 revenues and 18.4% and
11.7% of 1997 revenues.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
("FAS 130") and SFAS 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information" ("FAS 131"). FAS 130 and FAS 131 are effective for
financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. In
addition, in October 1997 AcSEC issued Statement of Position 97-2 "Software
Revenue Recognition" which is effective for transactions entered in fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company is studying the
application of the new standards to evaluate the effect on the Company's
financial statements.

2. INVESTMENTS

Prepaid expenses and other current assets includes short-term investments
of $348,195 as of December 31, 1996. These investments are recorded at cost
plus accrued interest (approximates market) and consist of United States
Treasury Bills, maturing on or before April 3, 1997. These short-term
investments are classified as held to maturity.

Securities available for sale at December 31, 1996 consisted of United
Stated Treasury Notes with a 6% coupon rate maturing on August 15, 1999. These
securities are recorded at fair value. The unrealized gains or loss, net of tax
are reported in a separate component of stockholder equity. During 1997, these
investments were disposed of and invested in cash equivalents.

Other income for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 includes
$20,269, $313,132 and $1,646,630, respectively, of investment income.

3. CAPITAL STOCK

Stock Split

The Company effected a three-for-two stock split, in the form of a 50%
stock dividend, distributed on March 9, 1998 to stockholders of record on
February 23, 1998. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts have been
adjusted to reflect this split.

Public Offerings

The Company completed its Initial Public Offering ("IPO") in October 1996.
The Company sold 3 million shares at $10.67 per share, resulting in proceeds to
the Company of approximately $28.7 million, after deducting expenses. In
addition, on November 18, 1996 the Company received approximately $3.0 million,
net of expenses, upon the exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option
to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock from the Company in connection with
the IPO.

In connection with the IPO, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation was
amended to authorize the issuance of up to 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock,
$.01 par value per share and the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share.

A portion of the proceeds from the Company's IPO were used to retire
substantially all of the Company's outstanding debt. In addition, the Company's
Class A and B Preferred Stock was retired and the holders of such shares were
issued an aggregate of 1,279,218 shares of the Company's Common Stock and were
paid an aggregate amount of $825,000. The distribution of the 1,279,218 shares
of the Company's Common Stock, valued at $8 per share, for an aggregate of
$10.2 million, resulted in a one-time, noncash charge to retained earnings and
a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital. Further, immediately
prior to the IPO, Connecticut Innovations Incorporated ("CII") exercised
outstanding warrants to purchase 501,786 shares of the Company's Common Stock
at an aggregate purchase price of $822,959. In addition, upon the closing of
the IPO all of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the
Company (all of which were held by CII) converted into an aggregate of 154,800
shares of Common Stock.

During April 1997, the Company received net proceeds of $172,876 from the
sale of 75,000 shares of its Common Stock in a follow-on offering.

Earnings Per Share
In February 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" FAS 128, which revises the
methodology of calculating earnings per share. The Company adopted FAS 128 in
the fourth quarter of 1997. All earnings per share amounts for all periods have
been presented in accordance with and where appropriate, restated to conform to
the FAS No. 128 requirements.

4. STOCK PLANS

The Company's 1996 and 1997 Stock Incentive Plans authorize the grant of
options to employees, directors and consultants for up to 1,500,000 shares and
1,125,000 shares, respectively, of the Company's Common Stock. All options
granted have 10 year terms and vest and become fully exercisable at the end of
4 years of continued employment. In addition, a total of 300,000 shares of
Common Stock have been authorized for issuance under the Company's 1996
Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Under the employee stock purchase plan, shares of the Company's Common
Stock may be purchased at six-month intervals at 85% of the lower of the fair
market value on the first or the last business day of each six-month period.
Employees may purchase shares having a value not exceeding 10% of their gross
compensation, up to $25,000 of the fair market value of such Common Stock,
during an offering period.

4. STOCK PLANS (Continued)

The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related
Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because, as
discussed below, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under FASB
Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires use of
option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee
stock options. Under APB 25, if the exercise price of the Company's employee
stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of
grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is
required by Statement 123, and has been determined as if the Company had
accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of the
Statement. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant
using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1996 1997
---------- ----------
<S> <C> <C>
Risk-free interest rate ................................ 5.0% 5.0%
Dividend yield ......................................... 0 0
Expected volatility of market price of company's
common stock .......................................... .71 .63
Expected option life ................................... 5 years 5 years
Weighted average fair value per share of options granted
during year ........................................... $4.86 $7.31
</TABLE>

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the
input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price
volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in
the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate,
in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a
reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. The Company's
pro forma information follows:

5. DEFERRED COMPENSATION

In accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, as amended on
September 30, 1996, an employee became entitled to receive a payment of
$275,000 on or before December 31, 1996 and, as a result of the public offering
of the Company's Common Stock, the right to purchase 27,500 shares of the
Company's Common Stock for $.01 per share. In addition, during 1996 an employee
was given the right to purchase 42,652 shares of the Company's Common Stock for
$.01 per share. During 1996, these employees acquired the shares and the
difference between the exercise price and the fair value on the date of grant
was charged to compensation expense. In connection with an employment

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On June 11, 1996, the Company entered into a noncancelable lease expiring
on August 31, 2000 for 48,222 square feet of office space in Stamford,
Connecticut. In connection therewith, the Company obtained a letter of credit
in the initial amount of $362,000 as security for the lease. Minimum future
rental payments due under such lease are $723,330 per year.

The Company also leases Connecticut office facilities under a
noncancelable operating lease expiring in April 1999. The Company recognizes
rental expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. Rent
expense was $330,914, $591,729 and $738,582 for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

Minimum future rental payments due under such leases as of December 31,
1997 are as follows:

1998 .......................... $ 929,521
1999 .......................... 773,237

$1,918,128
==========

The Company is also obligated to pay utilities and property taxes above
the landlords' base year costs.

The Company has entered into employment contracts with various officers

approved by the Board of Directors. In addition, as of December 31, 1997, the
Company has loans to officers aggregating $264,653.

The Company maintains an employee savings plan that qualifies as a cash or
deferred salary arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Under the plan, participating employees may defer up to 15% of their pre-tax
compensation, but not more than $9,500 and $10,000 for 1996 and 1997 calendar
years. The Company does not contribute to the plan.

8. EXTRAORDINARY ITEM
On June 30, 1995 the Company refinanced existing debt with CII. In doing
so, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $223,696 which is net of a
$158,038 tax benefit. Such extraordinary loss was due to a negotiated
acceleration of payments due to early termination of the debt agreement.

for compensation related to two newly hired employees of $909,548 or $.07 per
share ($.07 per share--diluted). The fourth quarter of 1996 includes a one-time
charge associated with the IPO of $200,000 or $.02 per share ($.01 per
share--diluted).

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 2, 1998, the Company acquired TRIS, a provider of billing and
care software and services, from Computer Sciences Corporation, in a
transaction accounted for in accordance with the purchase method of accounting,
by acquiring all of the outstanding Capital Stock of CSC Intelicom Inc. (now
known as ITDS Intelicom Services, Inc.). The purchases price consisted of
606,673 shares of Common Stock of the Company valued at $10,000,000 and
$75,826,777 in cash. A portion of the cash purchase price for TRIS was obtained
by the Company under a Credit Agreement dated January 2, 1998, with certain
lenders and Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc., as Administrative Agent and Arranger
(the "Credit Agreement"), that provides for a $70 million term loan and a $30
million line of credit.

The credit agreement contains normal covenants which include meeting
certain financial ratios, requires the Company to pay interest at LIBOR plus
two and one quarter percent and requires payments of interest only through
March 30, 2000. At which time periodic principal, payments will become due.

The purchase price in excess of the fair market value of the assets
acquired of approximately $57 million will be amortized over 15 years. In
addition, purchased research and development costs of approximately $21 million
before income tax benefit and other indirect transaction related costs of
approximately $5 million before income tax benefit will be expensed in the
first quarter of 1998. The fair value of the purchased research and development
costs was determined based on an independent valuation. The $21 million and $5
million discussed above have been excluded from the pro forma calculation for
the year ended December 31, 1997.

Pro Forma Financial Information (Unaudited)

For the year ended March 28, 1997 and the nine months ended December 31,
1997, TRIS had revenues and net income (loss) of $42.2 million and $3.0 million
and $39.8 million and $(1.9) million, respectively. Assuming the acquisition
had occurred as of January 1, 1997, pro forma revenues, net income and basic
net income per share and diluted net income per share would have been $80.4
million, $5.2 million, $.39 per share and $.3 per share, respectively.

Two customers accounted for 36% and 11% of TRIS' total revenues for the
nine months ended December 31, 1997. For the year ended March 28, 1997, these
two customers accounted for 17% and 13% of TRIS' total revenues.

Legal Proceedings

Neither ITDS nor any of its subsidiaries is currently party to any
material legal proceedings. However, ITDS Intelicom Services, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company acquired in January 1998 from Computer
Sciences Corporation ("CSC"), is party to litigation and has been threatened
with litigation in connection with the operation of its business prior to its
acquisition by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the acquisition, CSC and
certain of its affiliates are obligated to defend and indemnify the Company
against any obligations arising out of such litigation or threatened
litigation.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors
ITDS Intelicom Services, Inc.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Intelicom at March 28, 1997
and January 2, 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the years ended March 29, 1996 and March 28, 1997, and for the thirty-nine week
period ended January 2, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, a change in reporting
entity occurred on January 2, 1998. The financial statements for all periods
presented have been restated to reflect this change.

Notes to Financial Statements

March 29, 1996, March 28, 1997 and January 2, 1998

(Dollars in Thousands)

1. Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Change in Reporting Entity

On January 2, 1998, International Telecommunication Data Systems, Inc. ("ITDS")
acquired the stock of ITDS Intelicom Services, Inc., formerly known as CSC
Intelicom, Inc. ("Intelicom"), a company of Computer Sciences Corporation
("CSC"). Concurrent with the acquisition, Intelicom was reorganized and all
divisions other than the TRIS Division ("TRIS") were transferred to CSC in a
spin-off. ITDS acquired only the assets, liabilities and operations of TRIS. As
a result of the spin-off, the accompanying financial statements were restated to
present the financial information for TRIS as a new reporting entity.

Description of Business

TRIS (the "Company") provides comprehensive transactional billing and management
information solutions to providers of wireless, long distance and satellite
telecommunications services in North America. These solutions are built upon a
flexible proprietary software technology to address customer requirements as
they evolve, regardless of market segment, geographic area or mix of network
features or billing options. The Company typically provides its services to
customers under exclusive contracts with terms ranging from three to four years,
and bills customers monthly, typically on a per subscriber basis. As a result,
substantially all of the Company's revenue is recurring in nature, and increases
as a customer's subscriber base grows.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared from the historical
accounting records of TRIS. As noted above, TRIS was not previously a separate
legal entity and accordingly, the balance sheets and statements of operations
and shareholders' net investment reflects shareholders' net investment which
includes amounts owed to CSC, contributed capital and retained earnings.

Due to allocations associated with certain shared functions more fully described
in Note 4, the accompanying financial statements may not be indicative of costs
that would have been incurred had TRIS been operated as an unaffiliated entity.

ITDS Intelicom Services, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

1. Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets of three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the
life of the related lease.

Goodwill

The Company evaluates at least annually the recoverability of its excess cost of
business acquired over related net assets. In assessing recoverability, the
current and future profitability of the related operations are considered, along
with management's plans with respect to the operations and the projected
undiscounted cash flows. Goodwill, which relates to CSC's acquisition of TRIS in
1992, is amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years.

Purchased Software

Purchased software is carried at cost, less accumulated amortization.
Amortization is computed using the straight-line method based on an estimated
life of five years.

Capitalized Software

The Company capitalizes software development costs as incurred for software used
in its product and service line only after establishing technical viability. The
capitalized costs include salaries and related payroll costs incurred in the
development activities. Software development costs are carried at cost less
accumulated amortization computed using the straight-line method over the
remaining estimated useful life of the product; generally, three years. The
establishment of technical viability and the ongoing assessment of
recoverability of capitalized costs require considerable judgment by management
with respect to certain factors including anticipated future gross revenues,
estimated economic life, market potential and changes in technology. Total
amortization expense for capitalized software was $5,592, $7,577 and $7,076 for
the two years and thirty-nine week period ended March 29, 1996, March 28, 1997
and January 2, 1998, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

Accounts receivable at March 28, 1997 and January 2, 1998, include $3,939 and
$8,834, respectively, for services rendered prior to those dates which were
billed in the month subsequent to the respective balance sheet date. The
allowance for doubtful accounts at January 2, 1998 includes $266 attributable to
unbilled accounts receivable.

Major Customers

Certain customers have individually exceeded 10% of total revenue during the
historical period, as follows:

Income Taxes

Income taxes have been provided on a separate return basis for the two years and
39-week period ended March 29, 1996, March 28, 1997 and January 2, 1998,
respectively. Income taxes have not been provided for periods prior to fiscal
1996. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consists of the following:

3. Employee Benefit Plans

Substantially all TRIS employees were eligible for the CSC contributory defined
benefit pension plan. That plan provided pay-related benefits based on years of
participation. Under CSC's funding policy, annual contributions were made to
fund the plan during the participants' time of participation.

F-26
<PAGE>

ITDS Intelicom Services, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

3. Employee Benefit Plans (continued)

CSC allocated pension plan expense to TRIS on the basis of payroll for
participating employees.

CSC maintained an employee savings plan that qualifies as a cash or deferred
salary arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the
plan, participating employees may defer up to 15% of their pre-tax compensation,
but not more than the applicable statutory limit per calendar year. TRIS through
a benefit allocation from CSC, offered a contribution match to its eligible
employees.

Subsequent to the acquisition of TRIS by ITDS as described in Note 1, all TRIS
employees became eligible to participant in ITDS' employee benefit plans.

4. Related Party Transactions

TRIS is part of the centralized cash management, treasury, disbursements and
collection functions of CSC. Accordingly, TRIS maintains no separate banking,
treasury or accounting functions. Operating expenses reflected in the statement
of operations and shareholders' net investment include both direct costs
pertaining exclusively to and incurred by TRIS, as well as an allocation of
costs associated with certain functions which were performed on a shared basis
for TRIS and other CSC divisions. These functions include insurance, legal,
accounting, human resources, income taxes and technology. Costs are allocated to
TRIS based on allocation methods related to the shared function, principally net
revenues as a percentage of consolidated net revenues. Management believes that
these cost allocation methods are reasonable and reflect TRIS' costs of doing
business.

Allocated costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses were
$3,794, $3,675 and $4,519 for the two years and 39-week period ended March 29,
1996, March 28, 1997 and January 2, 1998, respectively.

Subsequent to the acquisition of TRIS by ITDS as described in Note 1, certain
support functions will be provided by CSC on a transitional basis and other
services will be discontinued.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

In October 1996, TRIS entered into a noncancelable lease expiring in September
2003 for 60,400 square feet of office space in Champaign, Illinois. Minimum
future rental payments due under such lease are $665 per year, which does not
include property tax or utility experiences.

5. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

Rental expense incurred (including related property taxes) was $235, $464 and
$553 for the two years and 39-week period ended March 29, 1996, March 28, 1997
and January 2, 1998, respectively.

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to customer and other
disputes which involve or may involve litigation. It is the opinion of
management that ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these disputes will
not be material to the Company's results of operations or financial position.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Article SEVENTH of the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Certificate of Incorporation") provides that no director of the Registrant
shall be personally liable for any monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, except to the extent that the Delaware General Corporation
Law prohibits the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for
breach of fiduciary duty.

Article EIGHTH of the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation provides
that a director or officer of the Registrant (a) shall be indemnified by the
Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any litigation or
other legal proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the
Registrant) brought against him by virtue of his position as a director or
officer of the Registrant if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful and (b) shall be
indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys' fees)
and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any action by or in
the right of the Registrant brought against him by virtue of his position as a
director or officer of the Registrant if he acted in good faith and in a manner
he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Registrant, except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any
matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
Registrant, unless a court determines that, despite such adjudication but in
view of all of the circumstances, he is entitled to indemnification of such
expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a director or
officer has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, including, without
limitation, the dismissal of an action without prejudice, he is required to be
indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys' fees)
incurred in connection therewith. Expenses shall be advanced to a Director or
officer at his request, provided that he undertakes to repay the amount
advanced if it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to
indemnification for such expenses.

Indemnification is required to be made unless the Registrant determines
that the applicable standard of conduct required for indemnification has not
been met. In the event of a determination by the Registrant that the director
or officer did not meet the applicable standard of conduct required for
indemnification, or if the Registrant fails to make an indemnification payment
within 60 days after such payment is claimed by such person, such person is
permitted to petition the court to make an independent determination as to
whether such person is entitled to indemnification. As a condition precedent to
the right of indemnification, the director or officer must give the Registrant
notice of the action for which indemnity is sought and the Registrant has the
right to participate in such action or assume the defense thereof.

Article EIGHTH of the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation further
provides that the indemnification provided therein is not exclusive, and
provides that in the event that the Delaware General Corporation Law is

II-1
<PAGE>

amended to expand the indemnification permitted to directors or officers the
Registrant must indemnify those persons to the fullest extent permitted by such
law as so amended.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a
corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent
of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the request of the
corporation in related capacities against amounts paid and expenses incurred in
connection with an action or proceeding to which he is or is threatened to be
made a party by reason of such position, if such person shall have acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal proceeding, if such
person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; provided
that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no
indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as to which such
person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only
to the extent that the adjudicating court determines that such indemnification
is proper under the circumstances. Under the Underwriting Agreement, the
Underwriters are obligated, under certain circumstances, to indemnify directors
and officers of the Registrant against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act. Reference is made to the form of
Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 1 hereto.

All schedules have been omitted because they are not required to be filed

Item 17. Undertakings

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions contained in the Certificate of
Incorporation and By-Laws of the Registrant and the laws of the State of
Delaware, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of
the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of

II-2
<PAGE>

its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the
Underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement
certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by
the Underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. The undersigned
Registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration
Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to you in connection with a Registration
Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement"), filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, relating to the public offering of an aggregate of 4,945,000 shares of
Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Shares"), of International
Telecommunication Data Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").

The Shares are to be sold by the Company and the selling stockholders
pursuant to an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") among the
Company and Lehman Brothers Inc., BT Alex. Brown Incorporated, Cowen & Company
and Jefferies & Company, Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters
named in the Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriters").

We have examined signed copies of the Registration Statement and all
exhibits thereto, all as filed with the Commission. We have also examined and
relied upon the original or copies of minutes of meetings of the stockholders
and Board of Directors of the Company, stock record books of the Company, a
copy of the By-Laws of the Company, as amended, and a copy of the Certificate
of Incorporation of the Company, as amended.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly authorized for issuance and, after payment therefor and the issuance of
the certificates therefor by the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Underwriting Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the use of our name therein and in the related
Prospectus under the caption "Legal Matters."

It is understood that this opinion is to be used only in connection with
