This Amendment No. 2 is being filed to amend Items 4, 5, and 6 of the Schedule
13D as set forth below to reflect the merger agreement dated July 16,1997 among
Tel-Save Holdings, Inc., TSHCo, Inc. and Shared Technologies Fairchild Inc.
1. Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:
On July 16, 1997 Shared Technologies Fairchild Inc. (the "Company") entered
into an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Tel-Save
Holdings, Inc. ("Tel-Save") and TSHCo, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of
Tel-Save, pursuant to which the Company will be merged (the "Merger") with
and into such subsidiary and all common stock holders of the Company will
receive common stock of Tel-Save in accordance with the terms of the Merger
Agreement. In accordance with the Merger Agreement, RHI will receive shares
of Tel-Save common stock in exchange for its shares of comon stock and its
shares of 6% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company and will
receive cash for its shares of Special Preferred Stock of the Company in
accordance with the terms of the certificate of designation governing such
stock.
2. Items 5(a) and (c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended in their entirety
as follows:
(a) The Company's 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 1997 reported
15,819,987 shares of Common Stock Outstanding. Based on such number of
outstanding shares, the Reporting Persons' beneficial ownership of
10,146,568 shares of Common Stock constitutes approximately 51.4% of the
outstanding Common Stock. The Reporting Persons' record ownership interest
in the Company, based solely on its ownership of outstanding shares of
Common Stock (6,225,000) and without giving effect to the conversion of the
6% Cumulative Preferred Stock (convertible into 3,921,568 shares of Common
Stock) is 39.4%. Upon consummation of the Merger, neither TFC nor RHI
will have any beneficial ownership or interet in the common stock,
preferred stock, or any other securities of the Company.
(b) On April 29, 1997 RHI purchased 25,000 shares of common stock of the
Company in the open market at $5.1825.
3. Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is partially amended to add the following:
In connection with the Merger Agreement, RHI entered into a voting
agreement pursuant to which RHI has agreed to vote its shares of common
stock in the Company in favor of the Merger and the Merger Agreement.

VOTING AGREEMENT
This Voting Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of July 16, 1997 by
and between RHI Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("RHI"), and Tel-Save
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Acquiror").
WHEREAS, the Shared Technologies Fairchild Inc. , a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), Acquiror and TSHCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Acquiror ("Merger Sub"), are parties to an Agreement and
Plan of Merger dated as of July 16, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement") which
provides, among other things, for the merger of the Company with and into Merger
Sub (the "Merger"), with Merger Sub as the surviving corporation becoming a
wholly owned subsidiary of Acquiror and which must be approved by holders of the
requisite percentages of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company
entitled to vote upon the Merger (such shares of capital stock, the "Company
Common Stock") at a special meeting of the Company's stockholders (the "Special
Meeting") called for the purpose of approving the Merger, all in accordance with
the requirements of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and the Company's By-Laws;
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, RHI owns (either beneficially or of record)
the number of shares (the "Shares") of Company Common Stock set forth opposite
such RHI's name on Schedule A hereto; and
WHEREAS, as a condition to the willingness of Acquiror to enter into the
Merger Agreement, Acquiror has requested that RHI execute and deliver to
Acquiror and Merger Sub this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Agreement to Vote Shares. RHI agrees to vote the Shares and any other
shares of Company Common Stock which RHI, directly or indirectly, controls at
the Special Meeting or at any other meeting of the stockholders of the Company,
however called, and in any action by consent of the stockholders of the Company
(a) in favor of the Merger, (b) in favor of the Merger Agreement, and (c)
against any amendment of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws
or other proposal or transaction involving the Company or any of its
subsidiaries which amendment or other proposal or transaction would in any
manner impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify, or
<PAGE>
-2-
result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other
obligation or agreement of the Company under or with respect to, the Merger, the
Merger Agreement or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement.
2. Covenants. RHI agrees with respect to itself and the Shares it owns
that:
(a) It shall not, except consistent with the terms of this
Agreement, (i) transfer (which term shall include, without limitation,
for the purposes of this Agreement, any sale, gift, pledge or other
disposition), or consent to any transfer of, any or all of the Shares
or any interest therein, (ii) enter into any contract, option or other
agreement or understanding with respect to any transfer of any or all
of the Shares or any interest therein, (iii) take any other action that
would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of
its obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby, or
(iv) grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to any of the
Shares, deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting
agreement with respect to such Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
RHI may transfer its Shares if such transferee becomes a party to and
bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.
(b) It will not enter into any transaction, take any action,
or directly or indirectly cause any event to occur that would result in
any of the representations or warranties of RHI herein contained not
being true and correct at and as of the time immediately after the
occurrence of such transaction, action or event.
(c) It has no present intention to sell the Company Common
Stock acquired by it pursuant to the Merger. It agrees that it will not
sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Company Common Stock for 30
days prior to the effective date of the Merger or any Company Common
Stock received by it in the Merger until after such time as results
covering at least 30 days of combined operations of the Company and
Acquiror have been published by Acquiror, in the form of a quarterly
earnings report, a report to the SEC on Form 10-K, 10-Q or 8-K, or any
other public filing or announcement which includes such combined
results of operations.
<PAGE>

(d) RHI agrees that, upon the written request of Acquiror, it
shall convert such number of shares of Series I 6% Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $100.00 per share ("Preferred
Stock"), as would result in the aggregate number of shares of Company
Common Stock owned of record on the record date by RHI and the other
persons who have executed similar voting agreements dated the date
hereof, in the aggregate, equaling at least 50% of the shares of
Company Common Stock outstanding on the record date for the Special
Meeting; provided that RHI shall not in any event be required to
convert a number of shares of Preferred Stock which, when added to the
number of shares of Company Common Stock owned by RHI, equals 50% or
more of the outstanding Company Common Stock.
3. Representations and Warranties. RHI represents and warrants with respect
to itself and the Shares it owns that:
(a) It is the record or beneficial owner of the number of
Shares set forth on Schedule A opposite its name and, except for the
Shares, it is not the record or beneficial owner of any shares of the
Company Common Stock.
(b) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by RHI
and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of RHI,
enforceable against RHI in accordance with its terms. RHI has all
necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to
perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. Neither the execution and delivery of this
Agreement nor the consummation by RHI of the transactions contemplated
hereby will result in a violation of, or a default under, or conflict
with, any contract, trust, commitment, agreement, understanding,
arrangement or restriction of any kind to which RHI is a party or bound
or to which the Shares are subject which would materially impair the
ability of RHI to perform hereunder. Consummation by RHI of the
transactions contemplated hereby will not violate, or require any
consent, approval, or notice under, any provision of any judgment,
order, decree, statute, law, rule or regulation applicable to RHI or
the Shares, except for any filing under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the filing of an amendment to
the Schedules 13D, if
<PAGE>
-4-
any, filed by RHI with respect to the Company Common Stock.
(c) The Shares owned by RHI and the certificates representing
such Shares are now and at all times during the term hereof will be
held by RHI or by a nominee or custodian for its benefit, free and
clear of all liens, claims, security interests, proxies, voting trusts
or agreements, understandings or arrangements or any other encumbrances
whatsoever, except for any such encumbrances or proxies arising
hereunder.
(d) No broker, investment banker, financial adviser or other
person is entitled to any broker's, finder's, financial adviser's or
other similar fee or commission in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of
RHI.
4. Certain Events. RHI agrees that this Agreement and the obligations
hereunder shall attach to the Shares owned by it and shall be binding upon any
person or entity to which legal or beneficial ownership of such Shares shall
pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including without limitation
such person's heirs, guardians, administrators or successors. In the event of
any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization or
other change in the capital structure of the Company affecting the Company
Common Stock, or the acquisition of additional shares of Company Common Stock by
RHI, this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to any additional
shares of Company Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company issued
to or acquired by RHI. In the event of a stock dividend or distribution, or any
change in Company Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, split-up,
recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the like, the term "Shares"
shall be deemed to refer to and include the Shares as well as all such stock
dividends and distributions and any shares into which or for which any or all of
the Shares may be changed or exchanged.
5. Specific Enforcement of Voting Agreement. RHI expressly acknowledges
that damages alone will not be adequate remedy for any breach by RHI of this
Agreement and that Acquiror, in addition to any other remedies it may have, will
be entitled as a matter of right, to injunctive relief, including specific
performance, in any court of competent jurisdiction with respect to any actual
or threatened breach by RHI of the provisions of this Agreement.
