Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
          ------------------------------------

     On August 1, 1997, IFX Corporation (the "Company") consummated 
documentation of a transaction, effective as of April 1, 1997, whereby The Park 
Trust, an affiliate of IFX Limited's two principal salesmen, Graham Wellesley 
and Lorenzo Naldini, subscribed for slightly less than 50% of the stock of IFX 
Limited, a London-based subsidiary of the Company. The subscription price of 
$2,448,464 was funded with $100,000 in cash and a subscription payable to The 
Park Trust for the remaining $2,348,464 of the purchase price. The subscription 
payable will be funded out of dividends from the Company which would otherwise 
be paid to The Park Trust, as provided in a stockholders agreement among the 
Company, IFX Limited and The Park Trust (the "Agreement"). Following the 
restructuring of IFX Limited, the Company owns slightly greater than 50% of IFX 
Limited, and is deemed to have a controlling interest.

     The subscription by The Park Trust was effected through a restructuring of 
IFX Limited's capital. The 2,448,465 ordinary $1.00 par shares, already issued 
and held by the Company, were redesignated as "A" ordinary $1.00 par shares. In 
addition, the authorized share capital of IFX Limited was increased by the 
creation of 322,829 new "B" ordinary $1.00 par shares and the 2,125,635 unissued
ordinary $1.00 par shares were converted into a like number of "B" ordinary 
$1.00 par shares. The 2,448,464 "B" ordinary $1.00 par shares were then 
subscribed for by The Park Trust as described above.

     Following the subscription by The Park Trust, the Company and The Park 
Trust are entitled to profit distributions according to their respective 
ownership percentages, based upon stipulations set forth in the Agreement.

     Prior to the subscription, under their original employment contracts, the 
three principal salesmen of IFX Limited (Messrs. Wellesley and Naldini, and a 
third individual whose employment with IFX Limited was terminated, who together 
were primarily responsible for establishing the business of IFX Limited), were 
entitled to 50% of the pre-tax profits of IFX Limited, one-half of which was 
payable quarterly, with the remaining one-half payable at the end of the fiscal 
year, adjusted for subsequent losses, if any. These salesmen were also entitled 
to share in up to 50% of any premium, as defined, which might be generated if a 
change in ownership of IFX Limited occurred, depending upon when such a change 
happened. Since these contracts were entered into, business at IFX Limited has
grown substantially, requiring that the Company provide additional capital for
regulatory purposes to IFX Limited.

     In March, 1997, the Company and IFX Limited renegotiated the employment 
contracts of Messrs. Wellesley and Naldini. As a result of this renegotiation, 
their existing employment contracts were terminated, new ones were executed, and
the Company agreed, in principle, to issue shares of IFX Limited to the salesmen
at book value. Under the new arrangement, the remaining two principal salesmen 
receive a modest salary rather than a profit share.

     In settlement of their original employment contracts, Messrs. Wellesley and
Naldini have agreed to accept the one-half of profit share which was payable to 
them quarterly for the first nine months of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1997
($641,000 less any draws that had been previously taken) and to waive any rights
to the one-half profit share ($641,000) which would have otherwise been due to 
them on June 30, 1997. As IFX Limited had been accruing the fiscal year-end 
one-half profit share which would have been due to Messrs. Wellesley and Naldini
on June 30, 1997, it was able to reduce its compensation and related benefits 
expenses by $641,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 as a result of this 
settlement. The third salesman who was terminated received full payment in 
February 1997 for his deferred profit share under the terms of his employment 
contract.
