ITEM 2.  Acquisition  or Disposition of Assets.

                  The Registrant and Tel-Save,  Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation
                  and a wholly-owned  subsidiary of the Registrant  ("Tel-Save")
                  and  American   Business   Alliance,   Inc.,  a   Pennsylvania
                  corporation  ("ABA"),  Sam Means,  Scott Arch, Ellen Arch, the
                  Voting  Trust U/A dated  September  1, 1993 under  which Ralph
                  Arch  is  the  Trustee  and  Ralph   Arch,   entered   into  a
                  Restructuring   Agreement   dated   December   13,  1996  (the
                  "Restructuring  Agreement")  which  provided  for the eventual
                  settlement of the issues  between the parties and  outstanding
                  obligations. ABA is an independent long distance and marketing
                  company  that  pursuant to a Partition  Agreement  ("Partition
                  Agreement)  with  Tel-Save  purchased  or  otherwise  provided
                  end-users  the long  distance  services  provided by Tel-Save.
                  Pursuant to the Restructuring  Agreement,  ABA agreed to sell,
                  assign,  convey and transfer to Tel-Save  substantially all of
                  the  assets of ABA,  which  consist  primarily  of ABA's  long
                  distance marketing, operations and end-user servicing systems,
                  its third party contracts for offering long distance services,
                  end-user   servicing  systems,   related  contracts,   certain
                  end-users and customers  provisioned  by Tel-Save  pursuant to
                  the Partition Agreement (collectively,  the "Customers"),  all
                  contracts or other agreements entered into between ABA and the
                  Customers (the  "Customer  Agreements"),  accounts  receivable
                  arising in connection  with the Customer  Agreements;  cash or
                  cash equivalents,  certain computer equipment and software,  a
                  real property lease and certain other assets of ABA designated
                  by Tel-Save over the next sixty (60) days  (collectively,  the
                  "Assets"). In consideration of ABA's agreement to sell, assign
                  and  transfer  the Assets to  Tel-Save,  Tel-Save  paid ABA an
                  aggregate of  $9,450,000.00  on December  13, 1996,  agreed to
                  assume certain designated  liabilities of ABA and released ABA
                  from its outstanding  obligations to make payments to Tel-Save
                  for  telecommunication  services or previous  advances made to
                  ABA  pursuant  to the  Partition  Agreement,  representing  an
                  aggregate   consideration  for  the  Assets  of  approximately
                  $23,000,000.00.  The Registrant  utilized cash on hand for the
                  advance.
