                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Board of Directors of
 Cohesive Technology
 Solutions, Inc.:

  We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cohesive
Technology Solutions, Inc. (formerly Cohesive Network Systems, Inc.) and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

  In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Cohesive Technology Solutions,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                   (Formerly Cohesive Network Systems, Inc.)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998

1. Business and Significant Accounting Policies

  Business--The Company was incorporated in California in 1993 under the name
Global Internet Access Services, Inc. and reincorporated in Delaware in 1994,
subsequently changing its name to Cohesive Network Systems, Inc. During
September 1998, the Company merged with Business Technologies, Inc. and changed
its name to Cohesive Technology Solutions, Inc. Cohesive Technology Solutions,
Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") are
primarily in the business of providing information technology related
consulting services to mid-tier customers and divisions of large corporations.
The Company has core competencies in the areas of business consulting,
application development and network integration.

  The Company has incurred a net loss of $10,235,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1998. In addition, the Company has a negative working capital of
$5,891,000 and an accumulated deficit of $2,755,000 as of December 31, 1998.
Approximately $3 million of the Company's preferred stock is redeemable in
September 1999 while another $10.4 million is redeemable in January 2000. The
Company believes, to the extent existing resources and anticipated revenues are
insufficient to fund the Company's planned activities, that additional debt or
equity financing will be available from its majority stockholder. This
stockholder has indicated that to the extent that the Company is otherwise
unable to meets it obligation to repay its existing credit line at maturity in
December 1999, it will make an investment in debt or equity securities of the
Company in an amount sufficient to permit the Company to meet such obligation
up to a maximum of $15 million. In addition, the stockholder has agreed, to the
extent that the Company may not have capital legally available for the payment
of redemption amounts otherwise due in January 2000 in respect to preferred
stock held by the stockholder, to extend the redemption date of such preferred
stock until at least May 2000.

  Consolidation--The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Cohesive Technology Solutions, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

  Use of Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  Concentrations of Credit Risk--Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash equivalents and
accounts receivable. The Company invests its excess cash in money market
accounts and highly liquid government securities. The Company's accounts
receivable are generally derived from sales to customers in the United States
which require information technology and networking services. The Company
maintains reserves for potential credit losses.

  Fair Value of Financial Instruments--As of December 31, 1997 and 1998, the
carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and
borrowings under the Company's credit agreements approximate their respective
fair values.

  Cash and Cash Equivalents--Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid
cash investments with an original maturity of less than 90 days.

  Restricted Cash--Restricted cash represents cash in escrow related to the
divestiture of the Company's software development group and Internet services
division.

              COHESIVE TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   (Formerly Cohesive Network Systems, Inc.)

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
                  Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998


  Short-Term Investments--While the Company's practice is to hold securities to
maturity, the Company has classified all securities as available-for-sale
securities, as the sale of such securities may be required prior to maturity to
implement management strategies. The carrying value of securities is adjusted
to fair market value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred taxes,
being excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity. Cost is based on the specific identification method for
purposes of computing realized gains or losses. At December 31, 1997, the
difference between fair value and amortized cost was not significant.

  Inventory--Inventory consists primarily of computer hardware held for resale
and spare parts, and is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined using the first-in, first-out method.

  Property and Equipment--Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are generally two to five
years.

  Intangibles--Intangibles resulting from the acquisition of technology service
businesses are estimated by management to be primarily associated with the
acquired workforce and technological know-how. As a result of the limited
operating history of the entities acquired, the rapid technological changes
occurring in the industry and the intense competition for qualified engineering
professionals, recorded intangibles are amortized on the straight-line basis
over the estimated periods of benefit, generally two to seven years. At
December 31, 1997 and 1998, accumulated amortization was $2,493,000 and
$9,227,000, respectively.

  At each balance sheet date, the Company assesses the value of recorded
intangibles for possible impairment based upon a number of factors, including
turnover of the acquired workforce and the undiscounted value of expected
future operating cash flows in relation to its net investment in each
subsidiary. Since inception, the Company has not recorded any provisions for
possible impairment of intangible assets.

  Revenue Recognition--Revenue from services is recognized upon performance.
Revenue from hardware and software sales is recognized upon shipment.

  Stock-Based Compensation--The Company accounts for stock-based awards to
employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."

  Income Taxes--Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for future taxable
amounts and deferred tax assets are recognized for future deductions net of a
valuation allowance to reduce net deferred tax assets to amounts that are more
likely than not to be realized.

  Reclassifications--Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform to the current year presentation. Other than the reclassification of
redeemable preferred stock, these reclassifications had no effect on total
stockholders' equity or net income (loss). Redeemable preferred stock has been
reclassified from stockholders' equity to mezzanine equity to comply with SEC
reporting requirements.

  Recently Issued Accounting Standards--In June 1997, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which requires an enterprise to report,
by major components and as a single total, the change in its net assets during
the period from nonowner sources. The Company adopted SFAS No. 130 in 1998. The
Company's comprehensive income is the same as its net income (loss).

  In 1998, the AICPA issued a Statement of Position (SOP 98-1), which requires
companies to capitalize the costs incurred to develop and install software for
internal use. The Company adopted SOP 98-1 in 1998. Adoption of this statement
did not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

  The total purchase prices above consist of (i) nonrefundable cash payments
due on closing of the acquisition (approximately $18.1 million), (ii) 900,000
shares of Convertible Redeemable Series D preferred stock issued to the former
shareholders of Business Technologies, Inc. (valued at $7.7 million) and
(iii) probable amounts to be paid in cash to the former owners of the acquired
companies upon the attainment of certain performance criteria (the "Cash
Earnouts") (approximately $12.8 million). Of the Cash Earnouts, $9.3 million
were allocated to original purchase price as the performance criteria were
considered probable of occurring as of the acquisition date. The remaining of
Cash Earnouts were contingent upon continued employment and were recorded as
Acquisition Related Charges during the employment periods. As of December 31,
1998, no additional amounts are contingent upon continued employment.

  As of December 31, 1998, accrued liabilities included $283,000 of unpaid
Acquisition Related Charges that will be paid in 1999.

  The acquisitions have been accounted for in accordance with the purchase
method of accounting and the accompanying consolidated financial statements
reflect the purchase price allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed
based upon their fair values as of the acquisition date. The $34.5 million
excess of the cash purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable
assets has been allocated to intangibles. The Company's results of operations
include those of the acquired companies from their respective dates of
acquisition.

  On July 25, 1997, the Company sold a portion of its software development
group to an unrelated third party for $40 million. As of December 31, 1997, all
of the proceeds except $4 million were available for operations. The remaining
amount was placed in escrow. During 1998, this entire amount and the related
accrued interest of $124,000 were released from escrow. In connection with this
sale, the vesting of options held by employees of the software development
division were accelerated by one year. This resulted in the Company recognizing
$281,000 in stock compensation expense during fiscal 1997. The Company recorded
a gain of $38 million during 1997 related to this sale.

  On November 26, 1997, the Company sold its Internet services division to an
unrelated third party for $6 million. As of December 31, 1997, all of the
proceeds except $1,050,000 were available for operations. The $1,050,000 amount
was placed in escrow at the time of the sale and was recorded as a deferred
gain at December 31, 1997. Of this amount, $942,000 was released to the Company
and recognized as a gain on divestiture during 1998. The remaining $108,000 was
released to the third party purchaser. In connection with this sale, the
vesting of options held by employees of the Internet services division were
accelerated by one year. This resulted in the Company recognizing $35,000 in
stock compensation expense during fiscal 1997. The Company recorded gains of
$3.9 million and $0.9 million during 1997 and 1998, respectively, related to
this sale.

  The operating results of the Internet services division have been segregated
from continuing operations and reported as discontinued operations in the
accompanying statement of operations. Revenues for the discontinued operations
were $3,721,000 and $3,805,000 for 1996 and 1997, respectively.

4. Lines of Credit

  The Company has a revolving line of credit from a bank that provides for
borrowings up to $15 million through December 31, 1999. Borrowings under the
line are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and bear interest
at varying rates based upon the bank's prime or LIBOR rate on the date of
borrowing. In

addition, the line of credit restricts the payment by the Company of cash
dividends or distributions on its common stock. The agreements require, among
other things, that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants. As of
December 31, 1998, the Company was in compliance with such covenants.

  As of December 31, 1997, the Company had two revolving lines of credit from
banks, which provided for borrowings up to $1,000,000 each through June 2,
1998, and July 1, 1998. All outstanding amounts were fully paid during 1998 and
the lines of credit were not renewed.

preferred stockholders.

  The Company may redeem Series A and B preferred stock at any time. Redemption

firm underwritten offering meeting certain criteria, if earlier. The redemption
price shall be equal to $100 per share plus all accrued but unpaid dividends.

  The holders of Series A and B preferred stock are not entitled to vote on any
matter to be voted on by the stockholders of the Company, except liquidation,
dissolution, winding up, consolidation or merger of the Company, or sale of all
or substantially all of the Company's assets, requires approval of two-thirds
of the Series A and B preferred stock voting as a single class. Series A and B
preferred stock is not convertible into common stock.

stock is being accreted to its redemption price over the redemption period.

  In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company,
Series D preferred stockholders are entitled to a liquidation preference of $10
per share plus any declared and unpaid dividends. Upon payment of the Series D

Series D and common stockholders on an as converted basis.

  Each share of Series D preferred stock is convertible into one share of

  At December 31, 1998, 714,443 shares were available for future grants under
the Plans.

  During 1998, in connection with the resignation of certain officers and
employees, the Company accelerated the vesting of options to purchase 244,000
shares of the Company's common stock. The Company recorded an associated
$590,000 charge to compensation expense.

 Additional Stock Plan Information

  As discussed in Note 1, the Company accounts for its stock-based awards to
employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees," and its related interpretations.

  SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires the
disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) had the Company adopted the fair
value method since the Company's inception. Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value
of stock-based awards to employees is calculated through the use of option
pricing models, even though such models were developed to estimate the fair
value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting
restrictions, which significantly differ from the Company's stock option
awards. These models also require subjective assumptions, including future
stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the
calculated values.

  The Company's calculations were made using the minimum value method with the
following weighted average assumptions: expected life, one year following
vesting; risk free interest rate of 6%; and no dividends during the expected
term. The Company's calculations are based on a multiple award valuation
approach, and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. If the computed minimum
values of the Company's stock-based awards to employees had been amortized to
expense over the vesting period of the awards as specified under SFAS No. 123,
net income (loss) available to common stockholders would have been
$(5,226,000), $18,065,000 and $(10,562,000) in 1996, 1997 and 1998,
respectively. The estimated weighted-average minimum value per option as of the
grant date for the awards granted for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1997
and 1998 were $0.06, $0.24 and $0.47, respectively.

</TABLE>

  The Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $2.3
million for state income tax purposes, which will expire in 2003. The Company
has deferred tax assets of approximately $1,444,000 and $2,521,000 as of
December 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively, resulting primarily from basis
differences in intangibles and other items. However, because realization of
these benefits depends on the generation of future taxable income, which is
subject to uncertainty, the Company has placed a full valuation allowance
against the deferred tax assets.

  The Tax Reform Act of 1986 and California Conformity Act of 1987 impose
substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating losses in the
event of an "ownership change" as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. Any
such ownership change could significantly limit the Company's ability to
utilize its tax carryforwards.

8. Employee Benefit Plan

  The Company has a qualified employee salary savings plan (401(k) plan). The
401(k) plan allows the Company to make discretionary contributions of a certain
percentage of employees' contributions to the 401(k) plan. The Company made no
contributions during 1996 and 1997 and the Company made a $12,000 contribution
during 1998.

  The Company is party to various litigation arising in the normal course of

acquired by Exodus Communications, Inc. (Exodus) for cash and common stock
valued at approximately $100 million. The acquisition is expected to close in

statements are based on the respective historical audited and unaudited
consolidated financial statements and related notes of Exodus and Cohesive. The
pro forma adjustments are preliminary and based on management's estimates of the
value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. In addition, management is
in the process of assessing and formulating its integration plans, which may
include employee separations, employee relocations, and other restructuring
actions and has not yet determined the costs, if any, of these plans.

     The actual adjustments may differ materially from those presented in these
pro forma financial statements. A change in the pro forma adjustments would
result in a reallocation of the purchase price affecting the value assigned to
the long-term tangible and intangible assets or, in some circumstances, result
in a charge to the statement of operations. The effect of these changes on the
statement of operations will depend on the nature and amounts of the assets and
liabilities adjusted. See note 1(c) to the pro forma combined condensed
financial statements.

     The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet assumes that the
merger took place on March 31, 1999, and combined Exodus' unaudited March 31,
1999 consolidated balance sheet with Cohesive's unaudited March 31, 1999
consolidated balance sheet. The pro forma combined condensed statements of
operations assume the merger took place as of January 1, 1998 and combines
Exodus' audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December
31, 1998 and unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, with Cohesive's audited statement of operations for the
year ended December 31, 1998 and unaudited statement of operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1999, respectively.

     NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)  Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Balance Sheet


     On July 27, 1999, Exodus acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of
Cohesive in exchange for approximately $50 million in cash and 800,398 shares of
Exodus common stock. In addition, Exodus issued options to purchase a total of
approximately 204,330 shares of Exodus common stock in exchange for all issued
and outstanding Cohesive options.

     The pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of March 31, 1999, gives
effect to the merger as if it had occurred on March 31, 1999.

     The following adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma
combined condensed balance sheet:

     (a) To allocate a portion of the cash consideration to the payment of
         indebtedness and amounts due under acquisition agreements of Cohesive
         pursuant to the merger agreement.

     (b) To exclude income tax receivable by Cohesive from the net assets
         acquired pursuant to the merger agreement.

     (c) To record cash paid and common stock and options issued to common and
         preferred stockholders of Cohesive, and record applicable purchase
         accounting entries.

         Under purchase accounting, the total purchase price will be allocated
         to Cohesive's assets and liabilities based on their relative fair
         values. Allocations are subject to valuations as of the date of the
         consummation of the merger. The amounts and components of the estimated
         purchase price along with the preliminary allocation of the estimated
         purchase price to assets purchased are as follows (in thousands):

              Net assets acquired                         $115,000
                                                          ========
</TABLE>

         The actual allocation of the purchase price will depend upon the
         composition of Cohesive's net assets on the closing date and Exodus'
         evaluation of the fair value of the net assets as of the date
         indicated. Consequently, the actual allocation of the purchase price
         could differ from that presented above.

(2)  Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statements of Operations

     The pro forma combined condensed statements of operations give effect to
the merger as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period presented.

     The following adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma
combined condensed statements of operations:

<PAGE>


     (d) Adjustment to remove the amortization of historical goodwill and other
         intangible assets previously recorded by Cohesive and to record the
         amortization of goodwill and intangible assets resulting from the
         allocation of the Cohesive purchase price. The pro forma adjustment
         assumes goodwill and other intangible assets will be amortized on a
         straight-line basis over the following estimated lives:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

              <S>                                <C>
              Workforce in place                 5 years
              Customer lists                     7 years
              Goodwill                           8 years

</TABLE>

         The ultimate lives assigned will be determined at the date
         of acquisition based on the facts and circumstances existing at that
         date.

     (e) To eliminate interest income earned by Exodus on cash paid at the date
         of the merger assuming a 5% interest rate which approximates the
         Company's actual rate of return during the periods presented.

     (f) To remove Cohesive's historical cumulative dividends and accretion on
         redeemable preferred stock which are settled in cash at the date of the
         merger.

     (g) To reflect the estimated shares to be issued as consideration for the
         merger based on the closing price of Exodus common stock of $33.625 per
         share.
