Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement

     On March 24, 2005, we received an advance of $1,162,500 from The 1818 Fund III, L.P. pursuant a $15 million Standby Credit Facility Agreement dated August 24, 2004 between us and The 1818 Fund. The 1818 Fund III, L.P. is one of a family of funds managed by Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. Loans under the credit facility are represented by a Senior Unsecured Promissory Note bearing interest at 9.95% annually. The note matures March 31, 2006, but under certain circumstances may be extended by the company until August, 2006.We intend to use the funds temporarily to meet a deposit requirement of an incumbent local exchange carrier. A copy of Standby Credit Facility Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to our Form 8-K filed August 26, 2004.

Section 2 – Financial Information

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation

     See Item 1.01 above.

Section 3 – Securities and Trading Markets

Item 3.01 Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule

     By letter dated March 22, 2005, the Nasdaq Stock Market has notified us that for the previous 30 business days the bid price of our stock closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion under Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) and that therefore we will be provided 180 calendar days, or until September 19, 2005, to regain compliance. If at anytime before September 19, 2005, the bid price of our stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days we will receive written notification of compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). Furthermore, if we cannot demonstrate compliance by September 19, 2005, but meet The Nasdaq SmallCap Market initial listing criteria, except the minimum bid price requirement, then Nasdaq will grant to us an additional 180 day compliance period. We have not at this time determined to take any action in response to this notice.
