                                  May 31, 2001

                                  INTRODUCTION

   This Proxy Statement and accompanying proxy are furnished to record holders
of shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of Telemonde, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Telemonde"), in connection with the solicitation of
proxies by the Board of Directors to be used at the annual meeting of
stockholders to be held on May 31, 2001 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time at
our U.S. offices located at 230 Park Avenue, 10th Floor, New York, New York
10169, and at any adjournment or adjournments thereof. This proxy statement,
proxy and notice will be mailed to our stockholders on or about May 4, 2001.

                               ABOUT THE MEETING

What is the purpose of the annual meeting?

   At our annual meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in
the notice of meeting on the cover page of this proxy statement, including the
election of directors, ratification of Telemonde's independent accountants and
approval of an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to increase our
authorized share capital. In addition, management will report on the
performance of Telemonde during fiscal 2000 and respond to questions from
stockholders.

Who is entitled to vote at the meeting?

   Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 23, 2001, the
record date for the meeting, are entitled to receive notice of and to
participate in the annual meeting. If you were a stockholder of record on that
date, you will be entitled to vote all of the shares that you held on that date
at the meeting, or any postponements or adjournments of the meeting. Each share
of common stock has one vote and each share of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock (the "preferred stock") has 4.6 votes on each matter properly brought
before the meeting.

What constitutes a quorum?

   The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the
votes represented by the outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock
will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business. As of
the record date, 103,789,652 shares of our common stock, representing the same
number of votes, were outstanding, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock,
representing in the aggregate 23,000,000 votes, were outstanding. Thus, the
presence of the holders of common stock and the preferred stock representing at
least 63,394,827 votes will be required to establish a quorum.

   Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be
included in the calculation of the number of votes considered to be present at
the meeting.


                                       1


How do I vote?

   If you complete and properly sign the accompanying proxy card and return it
to Telemonde, it will be voted as you direct. If you are a registered
stockholder and attend the meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card
in person. "Street name" stockholders who wish to vote at the meeting will need
to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds their shares.

Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

   Yes. Even after you have submitted your proxy, you may change your vote at
any time before the proxy is exercised by filing with the Secretary of
Telemonde either a notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a
later date. The powers of the proxy holders will be suspended if you attend the
meeting in person and so request, although attendance at the meeting will not
by itself revoke a previously granted proxy.

What are the Board's recommendations?

   Unless you give other instructions on your proxy card, the persons named as
proxy holders on the proxy card will vote in accordance with the
recommendations of the Board of Directors. The Board's recommendation is set
forth together with the description of each item in this proxy statement. In
summary, the Board recommends a vote:

  . for election of the nominated slate of directors (see page 4);

  . for the amendment to our certificate of incorporation to increase our
    authorized share capital (see page 7); and

  . for ratification of the appointment of Moore Stephens, Chartered
    Accountants, as our independent accountants for fiscal 2001 (see page 9).

   With respect to any other matter that properly comes before the meeting, the
proxy holders will vote as recommended by the Board of Directors or, if no
recommendation is given, in their own discretion.

What vote is required to approve each item?

   Election of Directors. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast
at the meeting is required for the election of directors. A properly executed
proxy marked "WITHHOLD AUTHORITY" with respect to the election of one or more
directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors
indicated, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether
there is a quorum.

   Amendment to Telemonde's Certificate of Incorporation. The affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of the voting power will be required for approval
of an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to increase our authorized
capital stock. A properly executed proxy marked "ABSTAIN" with respect to any
such matter will not be voted, although it will be counted for purposes of
determining whether there is a quorum. Accordingly, an abstention will have the
effect of a negative vote.

   Ratification of Accountants. The affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the votes represented in person or by proxy will be required for
the ratification of Moore Stephens, Chartered Accountants, as our independent
auditors and accountants for 2001. A properly executed proxy marked "ABSTAIN"
with respect to any such matter will not be voted, although it will be counted
for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum. Accordingly, an
abstention will have the effect of a negative vote.

   If you hold your shares in "street name" through a broker or other nominee,
your broker or nominee may not be permitted to exercise voting discretion with
respect to some of the matters to be acted upon. Thus, if you do not give your
broker or nominee specific instructions, your shares may not be voted on those
matters and will not be counted in determining the number of shares necessary
for approval. Shares represented by such "broker non-votes" will, however, be
counted in determining whether there is a quorum.

                                       2


When are stockholder proposals for next year's annual meeting due?

   If you want to present a proposal to be considered for inclusion in next
year's proxy statement, it must be delivered in writing to the Secretary of
Telemonde at 230 Park Avenue, 10th Floor, New York, New York 10169 no later
than January 5, 2002.

   If you want to present a proposal for consideration at next year's annual
meeting, without including the proposal in the proxy statement, you must
provide written notice to the Secretary at the above address no earlier than
March 9, 2002 and no later than April 8, 2002.

   In either case, you must present the proposal in person at the meeting.

Who pays the cost of solicitation?

   This proxy statement is being furnished in connection with the solicitation
of proxies by Telemonde's board of directors. Telemonde will pay the cost of
preparing, printing and mailing material in connection with this solicitation
of proxies. In addition to being solicited through the mails, proxies may be
solicited personally or by telephone, facsimile, electronic mail, or telegraph
by officers, directors, and employees of Telemonde who will receive no
additional compensation for such activities. Arrangements will also be made
with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries to
forward solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of shares held of
record by such persons. Such brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees,
and fiduciaries will be reimbursed for their reasonable expenses incurred in
such connection.

How can I receive a copy of the annual report?

   The annual report for the year ended December 31, 2000, including the Form
10-K, is being delivered with this proxy statement.

What does discretionary authority mean for stockholders of record?

   If you sign and return your proxy card without making any selection(s), the
persons named on the proxy will vote your shares "for" proposals 1 through 3.
If other matters come before the meeting, the persons named on the proxy card
will have the authority to vote on those matters for you. At this time, we are
not aware of any matters that will come before the meeting other than those
disclosed in this proxy statement.

Who tabulates the votes?

   Representatives of First Union National Bank will tabulate the votes. The
Board has appointed First Union National Bank as the independent Inspector of
Election.

If I plan to attend the annual meeting, should I still vote by proxy?

   Yes. Casting your vote in advance does not affect your right to attend the
meeting. Written ballots will be available at the annual meeting for
stockholders of record. If you send in your proxy card and also attend the
meeting, you do not need to vote again at the meeting unless you want to change
your vote.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                       PROPOSAL 1. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   Our certificate of incorporation divides the board into three classes, as
nearly equal in number as possible. Directors within each class are elected to
serve three-year terms and one-third of the directors sit for election at each
annual meeting of stockholders. Adam N. Bishop and Miguel D. Tirado are
nominated to serve as directors in Class II and, if elected, will serve until
the 2004 annual meeting of stockholders. Paul E. Donofrio and Count Gottfried
A. von Bismarck are in Class I and have been elected to serve as directors
until the 2003 stockholder meeting. Kevin F.H. Maxwell and Mark G. Hollo are in
Class III and have been elected to serve as directors until the 2002
stockholder meeting. Under the Bylaws, the affirmative vote of a plurality of
all the votes cast at the annual meeting, assuming a quorum is present, is
sufficient to elect a director.

   Unless otherwise directed in the proxy, the person named in the enclosed
proxy, or his substitute, will vote such proxy for the election of the two
nominees listed below as directors for a three-year term and until their
respective successors are duly elected and qualify. If any nominee at the time
of election is unavailable to serve, a contingency not presently anticipated,
it is intended that the person named in the proxy, or his substitute, will vote
for an alternate nominee who will be designated by the Board. Proxies may be
voted only for the nominees named or such alternates.

   The following table sets forth the nominees and the other present members of
the Board of Directors. With respect to each such person, the table sets forth
the age, principal occupation, position presently held with Telemonde, and the
year in which the person first became a director of Telemonde.

       PROPOSAL 2. AMENDMENT TO TELEMONDE'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   The board of directors has determined that it is in the best interests of
Telemonde and its stockholders to amend our certificate of incorporation to
increase (a) the number of shares of common stock that we are authorized to
issue from 145,000,000 to 475,000,000 and (b) the number of shares of preferred
stock that we are authorized to issue from 5,000,000 to 25,000,000. If the
amendment is approved, the first paragraph of Article Fourth of our certificate
of incorporation will read as follows:

  The aggregate number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall
  have authority to issue is 500,000,000 shares, of which 475,000,000 shares
  shall be designated as common stock, $.001 par value per share, and
  25,000,000 shares shall be designated as preferred stock, $.01 par value
  per share ("Preferred Stock").

   The remainder of Article Fourth will not be amended and will remain
unchanged in its entirety. If the stockholders approve the amended certificate,
the board of directors currently intends to file the amended certificate with
the Secretary of State of Delaware as soon as practicable following such
stockholder approval. If the amended certificate is not approved by the
stockholders, the existing certificate of incorporation will continue in
effect.

   As you may be aware, we are close to exhausting our current supply of
authorized common stock and have exhausted our supply of authorized preferred
stock. The Board's recommendation is to increase the number of authorized
shares of common stock to 475,000,000 from 145,000,000 and to increase the
number of authorized shares of preferred stock to 25,000,000 from 5,000,000.

   As a start up company, our cash flows are not yet sufficient to support
current working capital needs and are not currently sufficient to support our
growth plans. We need to increase our authorized share capital in order to give
our management flexibility to finance our operations.

   We currently have 103,789,652 shares of common stock issued and outstanding,
and commitments to issue 27,478,421 shares of common stock, bringing our fully
diluted shares of common stock to 131,268,073.

   We currently do not have sufficient authorized share capital to meet certain
of our obligations. In 1998 and 1999 we entered into agreements to purchase and
lease bandwidth capacity from Global Crossing. We defaulted on these
obligations in an aggregate amount of $54.8 million. In December 2000 we
settled our outstanding liabilities with Global Crossing by, in part, issuing
five million shares of our preferred stock. These five million preferred shares
are convertible into 23 million shares of common stock after May 31, 2001. In
order to meet our commitment to Global Crossing, we must increase our
authorized capital stock. In the event we do not meet our obligations by our
failure to increase our authorized common stock, we must immediately pay Global
Crossing approximately $4 million in cash. By restructuring our debt with
Global Crossing, we achieved an extraordinary gain of $17,624,000, and a
decrease on our net loss per share of $.19 per share. It was in the best
interest of Telemonde and our stockholders to restructure this debt and it is
now imperative to increase our authorized capital stock to ensure that Global
Crossing would be able to convert the preferred stock if it so elects.

   We entered into certain agreements with Communications Collateral Limited
and due to a failure to meet our commitments, we are obligated to issue CCL 8.2
million shares of common stock following an increase in our authorized share
capital. In the event of a failure to increase our authorized share capital, we
will have an immediate liability to make CCL a cash payment of approximately $2
million.

   We entered into a convertible loan agreement with Home Run Limited in the
amount of approximately $7,500,000 on April 27, 2000. The loan is convertible
into our common stock at Home Run's option after June 30, 2001 on the basis of
1 share for each $0.16 of the loan outstanding. The loan was repayable on April
26, 2001, but Home Run has agreed to extend the loan for a further period of 12
months (until April 26, 2002). In the event of a failure to increase our
authorized share capital, the loan will be repayable in full.


                                       7


   Under the sale and purchase agreement by which Telemonde purchased EquiTel,
there may be a deferred consideration due to the shareholders of EquiTel to be
satisfied by the issuance of Telemonde shares. Under the terms of the agreement
with the EquiTel shareholders, based on Telemonde's average share price of
$.13, as calculated over the last 10 trading days of 2000, the maximum number
of shares issuable would be 230,769,231 with respect to consideration due for
2000. The expectation, however, is that the shares to be issued to fulfill
Telemonde's obligations to the shareholders of EquiTel for the consideration
due for 2000 will not exceed 15,000,000. In the event that Telemonde does not
have sufficient authorized shares to fulfill its obligations to the
shareholders of Equitel, it will be in breach of its obligations and may be
required to pay approximately $1.95 million in cash to the EquiTel
shareholders.

   If our share capital is not increased to enable us to issue the shares
referred to above, we would be unable to meet our cash obligations, which may,
in turn, endanger our existence.

   We require additional working capital. Without the ability to raise working
capital or make accommodations with creditors through the issuances of shares,
we risk being in a position where we cannot cover our working capital needs.

   Another issue with respect to the need to authorize additional shares of
capital stock is the retention and recruiting of personnel. A primary
compensation device for start-up companies competing in our industries is stock
and options. This tool will not be available to us without your vote in support
of the board's recommendation to increase our authorized share capital.

Possible Effects of the Proposed Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation

   If the stockholders approve the proposed amended certificate, the board of
directors may cause the issuance of additional shares of common stock without
further vote of the stockholders, except as provided under Delaware corporate
law. Current holders of common stock have no preemptive or similar rights,
which means that current stockholders do not have a prior right to purchase any
new issue of common stock in order to maintain their relative ownership. The
issuance of additional shares of common stock would decrease the proportionate
equity interest of our current stockholders and, depending upon the price paid
for such additional shares, could result in dilution to our current
stockholders.

   The proposed amended certificate could, under certain circumstances, have an
anti-takeover effect, although this is not our intention. For example, the
substantial increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock could
help our management frustrate efforts of stockholders seeking to remove
management and could have the effect of limiting stockholder participation in
transactions such as mergers or tender offers, regardless of whether those
transactions are favored by incumbent management. In addition, if the amended
certificate is approved, the board of directors will have the ability to issue
shares privately in transactions that could frustrate proposed mergers, tender
offers or other transactions, even if those transactions are at substantial
market premiums and are favored by a majority of the stockholders. Such an
issuance of shares of common stock would increase the number of outstanding
shares, thereby possibly diluting the interest of a party attempting to obtain
control of Telemonde.

   Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws currently contain provisions
that may have an anti-takeover effect that may delay, deter or prevent a
change-in-control of Telemonde or other transaction that might involve a
premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders. Our
board of directors is divided into three classes. Directors of each class are
chosen for three year staggered terms. Staggered terms of directors may reduce
the possibility of a tender offer or an attempt to change control of Telemonde,
even though a tender offer or change in control might be in the best interest
of the stockholders. Directors may be removed from office only for cause. Our
certificate of incorporation authorizes the board of directors to classify or
reclassify, in one or more series, any unissued shares of preferred stock and
to set the preferences, rights and other terms of these shares. The board of
directors could establish a series of shares of preferred stock whose terms
could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of Telemonde or other
transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best
interest of the stockholders, although the board of directors does not now
intend to establish a series of preferred shares of this kind. Finally, our
certificate of incorporation provides that stockholders may not adopt, amend or
repeal any bylaw unless such action is approved by the affirmative vote of the
holders of not less than two-thirds of the voting power of all of the
outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to the generally in the election
of directors.

determined prior to his appointment as an executive officer in November 2000
from his employment as corporate controller.

   Although the Compensation Committee does not have a specific compensation
policy which is used to establish executive compensation, when making
compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee considers such factors as:

  . Telemonde's need to recruit, motivate and retain high quality executives;
    and

  . Market salary comparisons for experienced executives in the
    telecommunications industry.

   Telemonde has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Maxwell,
retaining him as Telemonde's Chairman. The term of the agreement runs until
June 30, 2002, after which either Mr. Maxwell or Telemonde may terminate the
agreement with six months' notice. The agreement provides for a basic salary
for Mr. Maxwell of (Pounds)240,000 per year, equal to approximately $358,440 at
the exchange rate on December 31, 2000, and health insurance for Mr. Maxwell
and his family. No provision has been made in the agreement for bonus payments,
stock option grants, or pension contributions to Mr. Maxwell.

   Telemonde Networks Limited has entered into an employment agreement with Mr.
Bishop, retaining him as President and Chief Executive Officer of Telemonde,
Inc. and Telemonde Networks Limited. The term of the agreement runs until June
30, 2002, after which either Mr. Bishop or Telemonde Networks Limited may
terminate the agreement with six months' notice. The agreement provides for a
basic salary for Mr. Bishop of (Pounds)240,000 per year, equal to approximately
$358,440 at the exchange rate on December 31, 2000, and health insurance for
Mr. Bishop and his family. No provision has been made in the agreement for
bonus payments, stock option grants, or pension contributions to Mr. Bishop.

   At the time of Telemonde's acquisition of EquiTel, EquiTel entered into
employment agreements with Messrs. Pomeroy, Topham and Trachtenberg retaining
them as President, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, respectively,
of EquiTel. The term of each agreement runs until June 30, 2002. The agreement
between EquiTel and Mr. Pomeroy provides for a basic salary of (Pounds)240,000
per year, equal to approximately $358,440 at the exchange rate on December 31,
2000. The agreement with Mr. Topham provides for a basic salary of
(Pounds)220,000 per year, equal to approximately $328,570 at the exchange rate
on December 31, 2000. The agreement with Mr. Trachtenberg provides for a basic
salary of (Pounds)185,000 per year, equal to approximately $276,298 at the

agreements for bonus payments, stock option grants, or pension contributions.

                      BOARD COMPENSATION AND OTHER MATTERS

   Currently, non-employee directors, including Mr. Hollo, Dr. Tirado and Mr.
Donofrio, are entitled to receive $100,000 per year for their services. In
addition, they have the right to receive common stock equal to $250,000 for
each year they serve on the board of directors. Thus, because Telemonde has a
classified board and each director serves a three-year term, total compensation
for each non-employee director for his three-year term is $300,000 in cash and
$750,000 of shares of common stock (with the exception of Mr. Donofrio, whose
amount has been prorated from the time of his resignation as Telemonde's Chief
Financial Officer and Executive Vice President). Only portions of board fees
have been paid for 2000 and no shares have been issued because of Telemonde's
current financial condition. We are currently discussing with our non-executive
directors settlement of their director fees due and owing. We intend to reduce
non-employee directors compensation to $50,000 per year, together with the
right to receive common stock in the amount of 200,000 shares of common stock,
or the number of common stock equal to $100,000, if lower. Other than
reimbursements for reasonable expenses incurred, directors do not receive any
additional compensation for serving on board committees. Employee directors do
not receive any additional compensation for acting as directors.

   Telemonde has a consulting agreement with Count Gottfried von Bismarck under
which he is responsible for developing Telemonde's business relationships in
German-speaking areas. The term of the agreement is one year and provides for a
fee of $120,000 per year, payable in monthly installments. The agreement
automatically is renewed for additional three-month terms, unless notice of
termination is given by Telemonde or Count von Bismarck 60 days before the
expiration of the then-current term. This agreement remains in force on a
rolling three-month notice basis.

          COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

   The Compensation Committee of the Board was initially established in
November of 1999 and consists of Mr. Hollo and Dr. Tirado. Neither Mr. Hollo
nor Dr. Tirado are or ever have been officers or employees of Telemonde. No
executive officer of Telemonde serves as a member of the board of directors or
Compensation Committee of another entity that has one or more executive
officers that serve as a member of the Telemonde board or the Telemonde
Compensation Committee.

   Mr. Hollo is a director and stockholder of Telemonde and a Managing Director
of Sands Brothers & Co., Ltd. Prior to Mr. Hollo's appointment to Telemonde's
Board, in October 1999 Telemonde engaged Sands Brothers to provide financial
and consulting services for a three year period. Pursuant to that agreement,
Sands Brothers will receive a placement fee equal to 10% of the total
consideration raised in any financing facilitated by Sands Brothers. Sands
Brothers or its designee(s) will also have the right to subscribe, at par
value, for 1,750,000 shares of Telemonde common stock upon the completion of
the first tranche of financing. Sands Brothers will also have the right to
subscribe, at par value, for an additional 200,000 shares of common stock for
each $1,000,000 of financing facilitated by Sands Brothers and accepted by
Telemonde. Telemonde has also agreed to pay Sands Brothers a transaction fee
equal to five percent of the consideration paid in any completed acquisition or
business transaction that was facilitated by Sands Brothers. No fees were paid
to Sand Brothers & Co., Ltd. in 2000. In addition to Mr. Hollo, trusts
established for the benefit of the families of certain affiliates of Sands
Brothers received, in the aggregate, 875,000 shares of Telemonde common stock.

                            STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH

   The graph below compares our cumulative total stockholder return on our
common stock from May 19,1999 (the date our common stock began trading as
"TLMD" following our acquisition of Pac-Rim Consulting, Inc.) through December
31, 2000 with the cumulative total returns of the Nasdaq Composite Index and
the Nasdaq Telecom Index. The graph assumes $100 invested on May 19, 1999 in
Telemonde common stock, and $100 invested on such date in each of the Nasdaq
Composite Index and the Nasdaq Telecom Index, with dividends reinvested. In the
proxy statement provided to stockholders in connection with our 2000 annual
meeting of stockholders, we used the Bloomberg U.S. Telecom Services Index (the
"Old Index"). We have decided to replace the Old Index with the Nasdaq Telecom
Index because we believe the latter index is more accessible to our
stockholders. In accordance with the SEC Rules, the graph below also
illustrates the cumulative total stockholder return of the Old Index over the
relevant period.

       CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

EquiTel

   Telemonde and EquiTel have had a close relationship since their respective
inceptions, on March 10, 1998 and September 17, 1998. Even before Telemonde's
acquisition of EquiTel on November 8, 1999, their principals and management
overlapped, they shared premises and services and, in circumstances where it
was mutually beneficial, they made joint presentations to potential customers.
However, prior to the acquisition, the two businesses were legally separate.

   Acquisition of EquiTel. Telemonde acquired EquiTel on November 8, 1999.
EquiTel's total assets at September 30, 1999 were $1,830,000. The maximum
aggregate value of the consideration payable by Telemonde to the stockholders
of EquiTel is $69 million. Telemonde's valuation of EquiTel was based on the
historic price/earnings ratios of similar telecommunication companies, applied
to the anticipated future after-tax earnings of EquiTel. The maximum aggregate
value of the consideration payable reflect the fact that the consideration was
payable wholly in Telemonde shares and that the majority of the consideration
was deferred and dependent on additional consideration payable to stockholders
of EquiTel upon EquiTel's achievement of anticipated future earnings.

   At the time of the acquisition, Mr. Maxwell and Mr. Bishop were executive
officers and directors of Telemonde and were beneficial owners of EquiTel
shares. In view of Mr. Maxwell's and Mr. Bishop's potential conflicts of
interest regarding the acquisition of EquiTel, Telemonde's negotiations with
EquiTel were conducted, and the terms of the acquisition were approved by,
Count von Bismarck. Count von Bismarck and the board of directors of Telemonde
appointed Gouldens, Solicitors, London, United Kingdom to advise Telemonde on
the legal and contractual aspects of the acquisition, and appointed Brown,
Shipley & Co., Investment Bankers, London, United Kingdom to advise Telemonde
on the valuation of and consideration in respect of EquiTel.

   The purchase price for the acquisition of EquiTel was to be paid as follows:

  . On November 8, 1999, the initial consideration of $19 million was
    satisfied by the issuance to the EquiTel stockholders of 4,947,917
    restricted shares of common stock of Telemonde.

  . On approximately June 30, 2001, a sum not exceeding $30 million in the
    aggregate payable to the former EquiTel stockholders, in proportion to
    their respective interests in EquiTel, by the issue of restricted shares
    of Telemonde common stock.

  . On approximately June 30, 2002, a sum not exceeding $50 million, less the
    amount paid on June 30, 2001, payable to the former EquiTel stockholders
    in the aggregate, in proportion to their respective interests in EquiTel,
    by the issue of restricted shares of Telemonde common stock.

   Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, the deferred consideration to
be paid in 2001 and 2002 to the EquiTel stockholders is to be decreased if
EquiTel does not achieve certain specified performance goals. The number of
Telemonde shares to be issued will be determined by a previously determined
formula, based upon the market price of Telemonde common stock over a fixed
number of trading days prior to issuance. Using this formula, the value of the
shares issued as initial consideration was set at $3.84 per share. Given the
performance of EquiTel during 2000, the current share price of Telemonde, the
effective integration of EquiTel into Telemonde and the perceived difficulty of
allocating costs and expenses to EquiTel going forward, Dr. Tirado has been
appointed on behalf of the Board to reach a settlement with the shareholders of
EquiTel to cap the amount of shares due in June 2001 and "buy-out" any
entitlement in 2002. It is expected that these discussions will be concluded by
June 30, 2001. It is expected that the total number of shares to be issued to
the former EquiTel shareholders will not exceed 25 million.

                                       17


   Interests of Certain Persons in EquiTel. As a result of EquiTel acquisition,
Mr. Maxwell and Mr. Bishop, who were beneficial owners of EquiTel, have
received shares of Telemonde common stock, and are entitled to receive
additional shares of Telemonde common stock when additional consideration is
paid to the former EquiTel stockholders. Mr. Pomeroy, Mr. Topham and Mr.
Trachtenberg, who were executive officers, directors and beneficial owners of
EquiTel shares prior to its acquisition, also have received shares of Telemonde
common stock and are entitled to receive additional shares of Telemonde common
stock when additional consideration is paid to the former EquiTel stockholders.

Rhone Financial

   EquiTel has a loan of $1,000,000 from Rhone, the founding shareholder of
Telemonde Investments Limited. This loan became an obligation of Telemonde upon
the acquisition of EquiTel, which resulted in EquiTel becoming a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Telemonde. This loan bears no interest, is unsecured, and is due
and payable in full when EquiTel's resources permit. Telemonde believes that
the terms of this loan are at least as favorable to Telemonde as could be
obtained by arms-length bargaining with an unrelated party.

Westbourne Communications Limited

   Westbourne, the company through which Mr. Kevin Maxwell provided consultancy
services to Telemonde prior to joining Telemonde as Chairman, continues to
provide Telemonde with consulting services. The current terms are governed by
an agreement signed on June 20, 2000. The agreement provides for Telemonde to
pay Westbourne (Pounds)12,000 per month, equal to approximately $215,000 per
year. The term of the agreement is for one year but may be renewed by mutual
agreement of the parties. Telemonde has not determined whether it will seek to
renew the agreement. Mr. Kevin Maxwell does not benefit from this agreement,
nor does he provide any services under it. Westbourne's consultants include Mr.
Ian R.C. Maxwell, the brother of Mr. Kevin Maxwell.

Argonaut Limited and Harley Consultants Limited

   During 2000 Telemonde made payments to Argonaut Limited and Harley
Consultants Limited amounting to $45,000 for directors and consultancy
services. Mr Michael Collins, a director of Telemonde Investments Limited, is a
director of both Argonaut Limited and Harley Consultants Limited and has a
controlling interest in Argonaut Limited.

Hoolcross Limited

   During 2000 Hoolcross Limited advanced $70,000 to Telemonde. Kevin Maxwell
is the sole director and beneficial shareholder of Hoolcross Limited. This sum
was provided on "arms-length" commercial terms. Mr. Maxwell does not currently
receive any remuneration from Hoolcross Limited.

Sands Brothers & Co., Ltd.

   Mr. Hollo is a director and shareholder of Telemonde and a Managing Director
of Sands Brothers & Co., Ltd. Prior to Mr. Hollo's appointment to Telemonde's
Board, Telemonde engaged Sands Brothers to provide financial and consulting
services for a three year period beginning in October 1999. Pursuant to that
agreement, Sands Brothers will receive a placement fee equal to 10% of the
total consideration raised in any financing facilitated by Sands Brothers.
Sands Brothers or its designee(s) will also have the right to subscribe, at par
value, for 1,750,000 shares of Telemonde common stock upon the completion of
the first tranche of financing. Sands Brothers will also have the right to
subscribe, at par value, for an additional 200,000 shares of common stock for
each $1,000,000 of financing facilitated by Sands Brothers and accepted by
Telemonde. Telemonde has also agreed to pay Sands Brothers a transaction fee
equal to five percent of the consideration paid in any completed acquisition or
business transaction that was facilitated by Sands Brothers. In addition to Mr.
Hollo, trusts established for the benefit of the families of certain affiliates
of Sands Brothers received, in the aggregate, 875,000 shares of Telemonde
common stock.

                                       18


Communications Collateral Limited

   Communications Collateral Limited is an investment company, owned by
fourteen third-party investors, with which Telemonde has no relationship, other
than pursuant to the agreements set forth below. In April 1999, Telemonde,
through its now wholly owned subsidiary, Telemonde Investments Limited, entered
into a series of agreements with CCL, including, among others, agreements for:

  . the sale of an IRU for bandwidth for $6.5 million;

  . the grant of an option which, among other things, required Telemonde to
    repurchase the bandwidth for $6.5 million upon CCL's request;

  . a $1 million loan by CCL to Telemonde due in August 1999;

  . the issuance to CCL of a warrant for an additional 7% of the shares of
    Telemonde, Inc., as calculated immediately prior to a Telemonde equity
    offering that raises at least $10 million;

  . the registration with the SEC of such shares issued and issuable to CCL.

   Telemonde defaulted on certain of these obligations. On January 13, 2000
Telemonde signed a forbearance agreement with CCL. Under this agreement, CCL
agreed not to exercise its rights of default under the foregoing agreements
until February 15, 2000, in consideration of various obligations of Telemonde.
As of February 15, 2000, Telemonde had not fulfilled its obligations under the
forbearance agreement, and as a result, CCL could foreclose on Telemonde's
assets in order to recover amounts due under the original agreements. Under the
terms of a settlement letter, dated March 21, 2001, 8.2 million shares are due
to CCL as a result of Telemonde's continued failure to register CCL's shares
for public resale. This settlement is contingent upon our stockholders
approving our proposed increase in share capital.

   Under a warrant agreement, CCL has the right to acquire up to 7% of
Telemonde's common stock, which equals approximately 10,197,631 shares if the
warrant were exercised in full on April 23, 2001 at an exercise price equal to
the lesser of $2.70 per share and the average price 20 trading days immediately
prior to the exercise of the warrant.

WorldCom

   In December 1998 and March 1999, Telemonde entered into agreements to
purchase certain capacity with a value of $19,800,000 and $6,500,000,
respectively, from the WorldCom group. Telemonde defaulted on the total
liability under these agreement in an amount equal to $26,300,000. In December
1999 Telemonde received a standstill letter, which has been amended and
extended on a number of occasions, from WorldCom to defer demanding immediate
payment of amounts due under the capacity purchase agreements. In July 2000 an
agreement was reached with WorldCom whereby $9,000,000 of the outstanding debt
due to WorldCom was exchanged for 15,766,792 shares of Telemonde common stock.
As of April 23, 2001 Telemonde remains in default of its obligations under the
capacity purchase agreements. Should Telemonde be unable to meet its
obligations under the capacity purchase agreements and subsequent standstill
arrangements, WorldCom could foreclose on assets included in property, plant
and equipment with a net book value of $11,835,000 as of December 31, 2000.
Telemonde has granted certain registration rights to WorldCom with respect to
its shares of Telemonde common stock.

Global Crossing

   In June 1998 Telemonde entered in an agreement to purchase certain capacity
from Global Crossing at a cost of $64,800,000. In December 1998 and December
1999, Telemonde entered into capacity operating lease agreements with Global
Crossing to draw down capacity and make payments amounting to $12,856,000.
Telemonde defaulted on its obligations under the capacity purchase agreements
and the capacity lease obligations resulting in Telemonde owing $9,000,000
(plus related charges of $2,900,000) for drawdown services and having an
outstanding obligation to draw down further capacity of $42,900,000. In
December

                                       19


2000, Telemonde and Global Crossing entered into a standstill agreement to
settle the terms of Telemonde's liabilities under the capacity purchase and
lease agreements. The standstill agreement provided for the extinguishment of
liabilities under the capacity purchase and lease agreements in exchange for
inventory, a new obligation to pay and lease agreements in exchange for
inventory, a new obligation to pay $11,911,000 and 5,000,000 shares of
preferred stock. The 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock are convertible into
23,000,000 shares of Telemonde common stock after May 31, 2001. Should
Telemonde be unable to meet its obligations under the standstill agreement, the
remaining amount due under the standstill agreement including interest thereon,
and the cash equivalent of the preferred stock issued of approximately
$4,025,000 will become immediately due and payable. Additionally, Global
Crossing may take action to pursue debts arising under the original obligations
which amounted to approximately $55,025,000. As of December 31, 2000, Telemonde
owed $10,541,000 under terms of the standstill agreement.

   In connection with the above transaction, Telemonde entered into an Amended
and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with Global Crossing on December 14,
2000. Pursuant to this agreement, Telemonde has granted Global Crossing certain
registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock to be issued to
Global Crossing upon conversion of the preferred stock.

      COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

   Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act") requires
Telemonde's executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10%
of the Common Stock to file initial reports of ownership and changes in
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), as well as to
furnish Telemonde with a copy of such report. Additionally, SEC regulations
require Telemonde to identify in its Proxy Statement those individuals for whom
one of the referenced reports was not filed on a timely basis during the most
recent fiscal year. It is the policy of Telemonde to file these reports on
behalf of our directors and executive officers. Several of our directors and
executive officers did not file their reports in a timely manner due to an
administrative error but all reports were subsequently filed.

                             AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

   The Audit Committee consists of three directors, Kevin Maxwell, Mark Hollo
and Miguel Tirado. Except for Mr. Maxwell, each member meets the independence
and qualification standards required by the New York Stock Exchange. The
Committee operates in accordance with its written charter, which was adopted by
the Board of Directors in 2000. A copy of the Audit Committee charter appears
as Appendix A to this proxy statement. During the fiscal year ended December
31, 2000, the Committee met two times.

   The Audit Committee monitors and reviews the performance of the independent
auditors and the quality and integrity of Telemonde's internal accounting,
auditing and financial reporting practices. The Committee's chief duties are
to:

  . hire one or more independent public accountants to audit Telemode's
    books, records and financial statements and to review its system of
    accounting, including its systems of internal control;

  . monitor and evaluate, independently and objectively, Telemode's internal
    financial controls and financial reporting procedure;

  . discuss with the independent accountants the results of their audits and
    reviews;

  . periodically communicate the Committee's findings to the Board of
    Directors; and

  . facilitate communication among the Board of Directors, the independent
    auditors, and Telemonde's management.

   The Committee has obtained from the independent auditors, Moore Stephens,
Chartered Accountants, a formal written statement describing all relationships
between the auditors and Telemonde that might bear on the auditors'
independence. This statement conforms to Independence Standards Board Standard
No. 1, "Independence Discussions with Audit Committees." The Committee has also
discussed with the auditors any relationships that may impact their objectivity
and independence, and satisfied itself that the auditors are independent of
Telemonde.

   The Committee has discussed with management Telemonde's audited financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2000. The Committee has also
discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by
Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (Communication with Audit
Committees) and, with and without management present, discussed and reviewed
the results of the independent auditors' examination of Telemonde's financial
statements. The Committee has also discussed with the independent auditors
their evaluation of Telemonde's internal controls, and the overall quality of
Telemonde's financial reporting.

   Based upon the results of the inquiries and actions discussed above, the
Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that Telemonde's audited
financial statements be included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2000, for filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Committee has also recommended the reappointment, subject to
shareholder approval, of the independent auditors, Moore Stephens, Chartered
Accountants.

                         CHARTER OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
                           OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

                                   I. Purpose

   The primary purpose of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of
Telemonde, Inc. ("Telemonde") is to provide independent and objective oversight
of the accounting functions and internal controls of Telemonde, its
subsidiaries and affiliates and to ensure the objectivity of Telemonde's
financial statements. The Committee and the Board shall have the ultimate
authority and responsibility to select, evaluate and, where appropriate,
replace the independent accountants. The Committee shall also review and advise
the Board with respect to Telemonde's risk management policies and tax
policies.

                                 II. Functions

   The Audit Committee shall perform the following functions:

     1. Independent Accountants. Recommend to the Board the firm to be
  employed by Telemonde as its independent accounts, which firm shall be
  ultimately accountable to the Board and the Committee as representatives of
  Telemonde's shareholders.

     2. Plan of Audit. Consult with the independent accountants regarding the
  plan of audit. The Committee also shall review with the independent
  accountants their report on the audit and review with management the
  independent accountants suggested changes or improvements in Telemonde's
  accounting practices or controls.

     3. Accounting Principles and Disclosure. Review significant developments
  in accounting rules. The Committee shall review with management recommended
  changes in Telemonde's methods of accounting or financial statements. The
  Committee also shall review with the independent accountants any
  significant proposed changes in accounting principles and financial
  statements.

     4. Internal Accounting Controls. Consult with the independent
  accountants regarding the adequacy of internal accounting controls. Where
  appropriate, consultation with the independent accountants regarding
  internal controls shall be conducted out of management's presence. In
  connection with this function, the Committee may require Telemonde's legal
  counsel to circulate a questionnaire to evaluate Telemonde's compliance
  with financial disclosure and accounting laws.

     5. Annual Reports. Review and discuss audited financial statements that
  are to be included in Form 10-K with the independent accountants and
  management and determine whether to recommend to the Board of Directors
  that the financial statements be included in Telemonde's Form 10-K for
  filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     6. Interim Reports. Review, or the Committee's Chairman shall review,
  any matters identified by the outside auditors pursuant to Statement on
  Auditing Standards No. 71 regarding Telemonde's interim financial
  statements. Any such review shall occur prior to the filing of such interim
  financial statements on Telemonde's Form 10-Q.

     7. Internal Control Systems. Review with management and internal
  auditors Telemonde's internal control systems intended to ensure the
  reliability of financial reporting and compliance with applicable codes of
  conduct, laws and regulations. The review shall include any significant
  problems and regulatory concerns. The Committee also shall review internal
  audit plans in significant compliance areas.

                                      A-1


     8. Ethical Environment. Consult with management on the establishment and
  maintenance of an environment that promotes ethical behavior, including the
  establishment, communication and enforcement of codes of conduct to guard
  against dishonest, unethical or illegal activities.

     9. Oversight of Independent Accountants. Evaluate the independent
  accountants on an annual basis and where appropriate recommend a
  replacement for the independent accountants. In such evaluation, the
  Committee shall ensure that the independent accountants deliver to the
  Committee a formal written statement delineating all relationships between
  the accountants and Telemonde. The Committee also shall engage in a
  dialogue with the accountants with respect to any disclosed relationships
  or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the
  independent accountants and in response to the independent accountant's
  report take, or recommend that the Board take, appropriate action to
  satisfy itself of the independent accountant's independence.

     10. Adequacy of Personnel. Review periodically the adequacy of
  Telemonde's accounting, financial and auditing personnel resources.

     11. Risk Management. Review and evaluate risk management policies in
  light of Telemonde's business strategy, capital strength and overall risk
  tolerance. The Committee also shall evaluate on a periodic basis
  Telemonde's investment and derivatives investment and trading and
  safeguards to ensure compliance with procedures.

     12. Tax Policies. Review periodically Telemonde's tax policies and any
  pending audits or assessments.

     13. Offerings of Securities. Perform appropriate due diligence on behalf
  of the Board of Directors with respect to Telemonde's offerings of
  securities.

     14. Charter Amendments. Review this Charter annually, assess its
  adequacy and propose appropriate amendments to the Board.

   The Committee's function is one of oversight and review, and it is not
expected to audit Telemonde, to define the scope of the audit, to control
Telemonde's accounting practices or to define the standards to be used in
preparation of Telemonde's financial statements.

                        III. Composition & Independence

   By no later than December 31, 2000, the Committee shall consist of not less
than three independent members, who shall be appointed by the Board of
Directors. Members of the Committee shall be financially literate or become
financially literate within a reasonable period of time after appointment to
the Committee and at least one member of the Committee shall have accounting
related financial management expertise or any other comparable experience or
background that results in the individual's financial sophistication. No member
of the Committee shall be employed or otherwise affiliated with Telemonde's
independent accountants.

   In the event that a Committee member faces a potential or actual conflict of
interest with respect to a matter before the Committee, that Committee member
shall be responsible for alerting the Committee Chairman, and in the case where
the Committee Chairman faces a potential or actual conflict of interest, the
Committee Chairman shall advise the Chairman of the Board of Directors. In the
event that the Committee Chairman, or the Chairman of the Board of Directors,
concurs that a potential or actual conflict of interest exists, an independent
substitute Director shall be appointed as a Committee member until the matter,
posing the potential or actual conflict of interest, is resolved.

                            IV. Quorum and Meetings

   A quorum of the Committee shall be declared when a majority of the appointed
members of the Committee are in attendance. The Committee shall meet on a
regular basis. Meetings shall be scheduled at the

                                      A-2


discretion of the Chairman. Notice of the meetings shall be provided at least
five days in advance. The Committee may ask members of management or others to
attend the meeting and provide pertinent information as necessary.

                                   V. Reports

   The Committee will report to the Board from time to time with respect to its
activities and its recommendations. When presenting any recommendation or
advice to the Board, the Committee will provide such background and supporting
information as may be necessary for the Board to make an informed decision. The
Committee will keep minutes of its meetings and will make such minutes
available to the full Board for its review.

   The Committee shall report to shareholders in Telemonde's proxy statement
for its annual meeting whether the Committee has satisfied its responsibilities
under this Charter.

                              VI. Other Authority

   The Committee is authorized to confer with Telemonde's management and other
employees to the extent it may deem necessary or appropriate to fulfill its
duties. The Committee is authorized to conduct or authorize investigations into
any matters within the Committee's scope of responsibilities. The Committee
also is authorized to seek outside legal or other advice to the extent it deems
necessary or appropriate, provided it shall keep the Board advised as to the
nature and extent of such outside advice.

   The Committee will perform such other functions as are authorized for this
Committee by the Board of Directors.
