Item 1.           Changes in Control of Registrant

         Pursuant to a Merger (the "Merger") between a wholly owned subsidiary
of MicroTel International, Inc. (the "Registrant") and XIT Corporation (see
Item 2 below), a Change in Control of the Registrant has occurred.

         Upon completion of the Merger, the Registrant's current
directors (with the exception of Jack E. Talan, who remains on the
Board) resigned and were replaced by the four existing directors of
XIT.  The new Board of Directors consists of Mr. Talan, Carmine T.
Oliva, David A. Barrett, Laurence P. Finnegan, Jr. and Robert
Runyon.  With the consummation of the Merger, there are 9,305,242
shares of the Registrant's Common Stock outstanding, each of which
entitles the holder thereof to one vote on each matter which may
come before a meeting of the shareholders, and the former XIT
shareholders are the owners of approximately 6,119,215 of such
shares. The Common Stock is the only issued and outstanding class
of securities of the Registrant.

Item 2.           Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On March 26, 1997, XIT Acquisition Inc. ("XIT Acquisition"), a newly formed and
wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant, merged with and into XIT Corporation
("XIT") (the "Merger"). Pursuant to the Merger, the former shareholders of XIT
were issued approximately 6,119,215 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant, or
approximately 65.8% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock. In addition,
holders of XIT stock options and warrants collectively have the right to
acquire an additional 2,153,240 shares of the Registant's Common Stock.
Collectively, the former XIT shareholders, option holders and warrant holders
now own, or have the right to acquire, approximately 65% of the 
Registrant's Common Stock on a fully diluted basis. The Merger Agreement dated 
as of December 31, 1996 (the "Merger Agreement") was filed as Exhibit 1 to
Item 2 of the Report on Form 8-K filed by the Registrant on January 21, 1997
which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.           Financial Statements; Pro Forma Information and Exhibits

                  (a) The Financial Statements of XIT Corporation will be filed
by Amendment within sixty (60) days of the date hereof.

                  (b) The Pro Forma financial information will be filed by
amendment within sixty (60) days of the date hereof.

                  (c)      The Merger Agreement has been previously filed and
is incorporated herein by reference.  (See Item 2 above).
