Item 5.  Other Events

Effective on September 30, 1999, CTC Communications Corp, a Massachusetts
corporation ("CTC Communications"), reorganized into a holding company form
of organizational structure, whereby CTC Communications Group, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("CTC Group" or the "Registrant") became the holding
company.  The new organizational structure will allow CTC Group to manage its
organization more effectively and broadens the alternatives for future
financing.

The holding company organizational structure, which moved the jurisdiction of
the enterprise to Delaware from Massachusetts, was effected by a merger
conducted pursuant to Section 252 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and
Section 79 of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Corporation Law (the
"Merger"), with over 2/3 of the stockholders of CTC Communications approving
the Merger at its Annual Meeting of Stockholders.  In the Merger, CTC-Newco,
Inc., a Delaware corporation organized for the purpose of the Merger and a
subsidiary of CTC Group, merged with and into CTC Communications, the
surviving corporation.  As a result of the Merger, the existence of CTC-
Newco, Inc. ceased and CTC Group became the sole shareholder of CTC
Communications.  In the Merger, each share of Common Stock, $.01 par value,
and each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value, of
CTC Communications was converted into one share of Common Stock, $.01 par
value and one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value,
of CTC Group.  CTC Group is authorized to issue up to 100 million shares of
common stock and 10 million shares of preferred stock.

The conversion of shares of CTC Communications' stock in the Merger occurred
without an exchange of certificates.  Accordingly, certificates formerly
representing shares of outstanding stock of CTC Communications are deemed to
represent the same number of shares of stock of CTC Group until such
certificates are submitted to CTC Group's transfer agent for transfer.  The
change to the holding company structure was tax free for federal income tax
purposes for stockholders.

The common stock of CTC Group is listed on the Nasdaq National Market under
the same symbol as its predecessor, "CPTL", with a new Cusip number of
126419100.

A copy of the press release issued by CTC Communications describing the
transaction is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The Registrant hereby incorporates by reference the Amended and Restated
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of March 1, 1999 among the
Registrant, CTC Communications Group, Inc. and CTC-Newco, Inc. (filed as an
Exhibit to CTC Communications Corp. Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File
No. 333-77709)), the Certificate of Merger of CTC Communications attached
hereto as Exhibit 3.3 and the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1,
each made a part hereof, into this Item 5.

CTC Communications Corp. Completes Holding Company Reorganization

WALTHAM, Mass.--Oct. 1, 1999--CTC Communications Corp. (NASDAQ:CPTL) (the
"Company" or "CTC") announced today that it has reorganized into a holding
company form of organizational structure which changed the jurisdiction of
the enterprise from Massachusetts to Delaware. As a result of the
reorganization, a new parent company, CTC Communications Group, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("CTC Group"), owns 100 percent of CTC, the previous
publicly-held company. Stockholders of CTC have automatically become
stockholders of CTC Group on a share for share basis.

The new holding company organizational structure will allow CTC Group to
manage its entire organization more effectively and broadens the alternatives
for future financing.

The reorganization was approved by the required two-thirds vote of CTC
stockholders under Massachusetts law. Existing certificates representing
shares of CTC's common stock serve as evidence of ownership of the same
number of shares of common stock of CTC Group; an exchange of certificates is
not required. The change to the holding company structure was tax free to
CTC's stockholders. The by-laws, executive officers and board of directors of
CTC Group are the same as those of CTC. CTC Group's common stock will
continue to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market under the ticker symbol
"CPTL." The new Cusip No. for CTC Group's common stock is 12641[9] 100.
