REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



The Members
MCV Venture, LLC

         We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of MCV Venture, LLC, a
Kentucky limited liability company, formerly MCV Venture, as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the related statements of operations, members' equity
(deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. The financial statements are
the responsibility of the Venture's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on those 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 audit 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, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MCV Venture, LLC as
of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

         As discussed in Note 11, subsequent to December 31, 1996, the Company
refinanced its long-term debt with a new lender, and one of the members sold
its entire interest to a new member.

                     YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995


(1)  DESCRIPTION OF MEMBERS' INTERESTS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
     POLICIES



         DESCRIPTION OF MEMBERS' INTERESTS

         MCV Venture, LLC ("MCV"), a Kentucky limited liability company
(formerly MCV Venture, a Kentucky general partnership), is a joint venture (the
"Venture") between W/P/V/C, LLC (formerly Webb Properties) ("Webb"), Premium
Financial Group, LLC and Vine Center Investors, LLC, collectively the "Members".
MCV developed and owns a hotel and office tower complex known as Vine Center in
Lexington, Kentucky. The hotel is operated under a franchise agreement with
Radisson Hotels. Prior to the sale transaction and effective name change
transaction described in Note 11, the entity MCV Venture, LLC (formerly MCV
Venture) operated as a Kentucky general partnership.

         The "Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement of MCV Venture" (the
"Venture Agreement") provides, among other things, that the overall management
and control of the business affairs be vested jointly in the Partners. Webb
contributed to the capital of MCV, for a 50% interest, all of the net assets
owned by MCV prior to the Venture Agreement and Kentucky Central Life Insurance
Company ("Kentucky Central") contributed cash to MCV in the amount of
$10,000,000 for the remaining 50%. The venture agreement was to continue until
December 31, 2038, subject to certain terms of the Venture Agreement. Additional
provisions of the Venture Agreement relating to income allocation and
distributions are described in Note 8.

         As of February 12, 1993, Kentucky Central entered into a rehabilitation
plan. As described in Note 11, effective February 28, 1997, the liquidator of
Kentucky Central sold its venture interest in MCV. Subsequent to the sale, the
operations are managed by Vine Center Investors, LLC.


         HOTEL SUPPLIES AND INVENTORIES

         Inventories are carried at cost based on the first-in, first-out method
of accounting and are expensed as used.

         PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

         Land and buildings are stated at carrying value at the date of
formation of MCV Venture, revalued pro rata, to fair value as a result of a
partnership change in 1988 accounted for as a purchase transaction. Furniture,
fixtures and equipment, and building improvements subsequent to 1988 are stated
at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Major
renewals and betterments are capitalized.

         Buildings and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful life of the assets, as follows:


         Buildings..........................................   28 years
                                                                   2-10
         Improvements.......................................      years
                                                                   5- 7
         Furniture, fixtures and equipment..................      years


         DEFERRED CHARGES

         Deferred charges include deferred leasing commissions and financing
commitments fees. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
estimated period of benefit, ranging from two to ten years, the term of the
related leases or debt.

         REVENUE RECOGNITION

         Revenue is recognized as earned. In accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, rental income has been recorded on a straight-line basis
with the effects of scheduled rent increases and rental concessions, if any,
recognized evenly over the term of the lease.



<PAGE>



         USE OF ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

         Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those
estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were
used.

         INCOME TAXES

         Earnings of MCV are allocated to the Members as prescribed in the
Venture Agreement for inclusion in the determination of the Members' taxable
income. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements include no provision
for income taxes.

         UNAUDITED PERIOD

         The financial information as of June 30, 1997 and for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 is unaudited. In the opinion of management, such information
contains all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary
for a fair presentation of the results for such period. The results of
operations for the interim period is not necessarily indicative of the results
of operations for the full fiscal year.

         Depreciation and amortization expense for the years ended December 31,
1996 and 1995 totaled 1,893,864 and 1,828,293, respectively, including
amortization expense of $107,304 and $24,346, respectively.

(3)  LONG-TERM DEBT

         Effective June 1995, MCV defaulted on its long-term debt. The Note in
the amount of $34,000,000, payable to a lender (the "original lender"), was due
for repayment in-full, November, 1995. MCV failed to make certain scheduled
repayments during 1995 and had not repaid the note as of December 31, 1996.
Interest expense has been accrued at the default rate of 18% from June 1995
through December 31, 1996. Accrued interest payable is included in current
liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets.

         During 1996 MCV entered into an agreement with a lender (the "new
lender") to re-finance its long-term debt. In consideration of the agreement,
MCV incurred a loan commitment fee of $960,000 which was paid on its behalf by a
related entity in December, 1996. The loan fee has been recorded as a deferred
charge (included under the Hotel and the Office Tower, see Note 2) and will be
amortized from the date the re-financing becomes effective, over the life of the
note.



<PAGE>



         The original lender obtained a judgment for foreclosure against MCV.
However, effective February 28, 1997, the original lender, in return for a cash
settlement of $26,950,000, agreed to cancel the original note and forgive all
unpaid accrued interest. As of the same date, MCV ratified an agreement with the
new lender to enter into a new note for $24,000,000. An additional $2,950,000 of
equity funding was obtained to finance the balance. The judgment for foreclosure
will remain in effect but may only be executed on by the new lender if MCV
defaults under the terms of the refinancing. The gain on extinguishment of the
original note has not been reflected in the December 31, 1996 financial
statements, and will be recorded during the year ended December 31, 1997.

         The new note is an "interest only" obligation re-payable in full on
February 28, 2000. Interest will accrue at the Libor Rate plus 4 1/2%. The
classification of long-term debt in the balance sheet at December 31, 1996, as
described below, reflects the terms of the new note.

         Long-term debt is comprised of the following:

(7)  RELATED PARTIES

         MCV entered into certain transactions with Webb and its affiliates.
Related party transactions and balances with these entities at December 31, 1996
and 1995 and for the years then ended are as follows:


                                                           1996           1997

Transactions:
   Lease commissions .............................       $146,713       $190,909
   Management fees-Hotel .........................        151,700        139,000

Balances:
   Accounts payable ..............................         59,672         61,535


         As discussed in Note 11, a related party purchased 50% of MCV
subsequent to year end.

         In December 1996, MCV incurred a loan commitment fee of $960,000 (see
Note 3) which was paid on its behalf by a related entity. During 1996 another
related party made $500,000 in interest payments on MCV's behalf. These amounts
were still owed to related parties at December 31, 1996 and are reflected as due
to related parties in the accompanying balance sheet.

         Included above are management fees for the management of the Hotel.
Under the terms of an Operating Agreement, Dawn Hotels of Kentucky, Inc. ("Dawn
Hotels"), a Webb affiliate, is the operator of the hotel through October, 1999
(with two additional five year renewal periods). In accordance with the
Operating Agreement, employees of the Hotel are employed by Dawn Hotels which
was reimbursed in 1996 and 1995 for all associated payroll costs.

         Also included above are management fees for the management of the
Office Tower. Under the terms of a Property Management and Leasing Agreement,
The Webb Companies, also a Webb affiliate, is the managing and leasing agent for
the Office Tower through October, 1998. MCV pays a management fee to the Webb
Companies and reimburses The Webb Companies for direct operating costs.

(8)  ALLOCATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF NET INCOME

         As set-out in the Venture Agreement, net income or loss shall be
allocated to the members/partners in accordance with the following priorities:

                  1. Depreciation and debt prepayment penalties are charged 
         against the Webb equity account.

                  2. The lesser of the remaining net income or loss and net cash
         flow distribution shall be allocated in the same percentage as any net
         cash flow distribution.

                  3. Any remaining net income or loss shall be allocated 50% to 
         each of the members/partners.

         MCV has made no net cash flow distributions during 1996 or 1995.

         Net cash distributions, when made, shall first take account of the
members'/partners' Priority Returns, as set-out in the Venture Agreement, and
their Accumulated Priority Return Deficiencies. The Priority Return is equal to
8% per annum of $2,000,000 and $10,000,000 for



<PAGE>


Webb and Kentucky Central, respectively, reduced by all distributions to the
respective members/partners. The Accumulated Priority Return Deficiency is the
excess of respective Priority Returns to be paid to members/partners in any
fiscal year over the amounts actually distributed. At December 31, 1996, the
Accumulated Priority Return Deficiency for Webb and Kentucky Central was
$1,288,105 and $6,534,185, respectively.

(9)  CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

         MCV's business activities are primarily with customers located within
the State of Kentucky. Financial instruments which might potentially expose the
Company to credit loss include trade accounts receivable and cash. Accounts
receivable are not collateralized. Management evaluates accounts receivable
balances on an on-going basis and provides allowances as necessary for amounts
estimated to eventually become uncollectible. In the event of complete
non-performance of accounts receivable, the maximum exposure to the Company is
the amount shown on the balance sheet as the date of non-performance. As of
December 31, 1996, each balances included $412,850 of deposits in excess of
Federally insured limits. The Company limits its credit risk with respect to
cash by maintaining its cash balances with high credit quality financial
institutions.

(10)  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 117, "Disclosure About
Fair Value of Financial Instruments" requires disclosure about the fair value of
all financial assets and liabilities for which it is practical to estimate.
Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and long-term
debt are all carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values.
The long-term debt has a variable interest and accordingly fair value is deemed
to approximate the carrying amount.

(11)  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         As described in Note 3, effective February 28, 1997, MCV re-financed
its long-term debt. As discussed in Note 1, effective February 28, 1997,
Kentucky Central sold its 50% interest in the Venture to Premium Financial
Group, LLC and Vine Center Investors, LLC, both related parties, and the entity
as it then existed was dissolved. The assets were contributed to MCV Venture,
LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company with Vine Center Investors, LLC. (1%
interest) the managing member and Premium Financial Group, Inc. (49% interest)
and W/P/V/C,LLC (50% interest) the non-managing members. There was no effective
change in control as a result of this transaction and, therefore, the
transaction is treated as MCV Venture changing its name to MCV Venture, LLC in
conjunction with the sale of certain partnership interests for new membership
interests. As the new members are related parties, the sale of the partnership
interests for new membership interests does not result in any change in the
basis of the assets or liabilities.
