OPINION
ROBERT L. CARTER, District Judge.
Plaintiff, Alfred Geller, manages and represents news reporters and anchors in the electronic media. In April, 1980, he contracted with defendant, Scott Newell, to act as defendant’s sole representative in exchange for 10% of defendant’s gross income from television and radio sources. Plaintiff alleges a breach of contract. Defendant moves to dismiss the complaint for failure to make timely service of process, F.R.Civ.P. 4(j) and 12(b)(5), and for lack of personal jurisdiction. F.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(2).
