                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To the Stockholders
Alphabet City Sports Records, Inc. and
 Alphabet City Industries, Inc.


     We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of Alphabet City
Sports Records, Inc. and Alphabet City Industries, Inc. as of December 31,
1997, and the related combined statements of income and cash flows for the year
ended December 31, 1997 and for the period from April 11, 1996 (inception) to
December 31, 1996. 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 audit.


     We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.


     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the combined financial position of Alphabet City
Sports Records, Inc. and Alphabet City Industries, Inc. at December 31, 1997
and the combined results of their operations and their cash flows for the year
ended December 31, 1997 and for the period from April 11, 1996 (inception) to
December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         (INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1998 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
                      JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED)


1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

     Alphabet City Sports Records, Inc. and Alphabet City Industries, Inc.
(collectively, the "Company") were organized in New York on April, 11, 1996 and
May 14, 1997, respectively. The Company's main purpose is creating, licensing,
marketing and distributing recorded music through non-music retail outlets in
association with a broad spectrum of professional and college sports teams and
leagues. The Company also provides non-traditional marketing and media services
to various corporations.


PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION

     The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of
Alphabet City Sports Records, Inc. and Alphabet City Industries, Inc. The
companies are under common ownership. All significant intercompany transactions
have been eliminated in combination.


REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Revenues from the sale of music CDs and cassettes are recognized upon
shipment to the customers. Marketing and media revenues are recognized as
services are provided or upon the delivery to the client of the materials
created for them by the Company.


ADVANCES AND RECOUPABLE COSTS

     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 50, Financial Reporting in the Record and Music Industry, advances to
artists and producers are capitalized as an asset when the current popularity
and past performance of the artist or producer provides a sound basis for
estimating the probable future recoupment of such advances from sales. Any
portion of such advances not deemed to be recoupable from future sales is
reserved at the balance sheet date. All other advances which do not meet the
above criteria are expensed when incurred.


LICENSE AGREEMENTS

     Certain of the Company's compilation products are master recordings under
license from various sports teams and organizations for the right to use the
names, logos and other material directly related to the team or organization.
Typically, minimum guarantees or non-returnable advances are required to obtain
the licenses and are realized through future sales of the product. The amounts
paid for minimum guarantees or non-returnable advances are charged to expense
over the license term. When anticipated sales appear to be insufficient to
fully recover the minimum guarantees or non-returnable advances, a provision
against current operations is made for anticipated losses.


PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a
straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from three to
seven years.


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.

               NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

         (INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1998 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
                      JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED)
 
INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     The unaudited interim information as of June 30, 1998 and for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 has been prepared on the same basis as the
annual financial statements and, in the opinion of the Company's management,
reflects normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
information for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily
indicative of results for a full year. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.


INCOME TAXES


     Income taxes are provided on the liability method as required by Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
Deferred income taxes (which are not material) reflect the net tax effects of
temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.


     The shareholders of Alphabet City Industries, Inc. have elected under
Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code to include the Company's income in
their own income for Federal income tax purposes. Alphabet City Sports Records,
Inc. was incorporated as a "C Corporation."

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Stockholders
Cambridge Holding Corporation, Inc.


     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Cambridge
Holding Corporation, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31,
1997 and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for
the year then ended. 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 audit.


     We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.


     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at
December 31, 1997 and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash
flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

             CAMBRIDGE HOLDING CORPORATION, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
         (INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1998 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
                     JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED)


1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The Company is a full service sports management and marketing firm,
specializing in both the representation of professional athletes and corporate
consulting. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Cambridge Holding Corporation, Inc. and its wholly owned
subsidiary, Cambridge Sports International, Inc. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


REVENUE RECOGNITION

     The Company's revenues arise primarily from percentage fees or commissions
received for the negotiation of professional sporting contracts and marketing
and endorsement contracts. The Company recognizes revenue ratably over the
performance period of the associated contract.


ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

     Accounts receivable at December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 include
approximately $731,000 and $582,000, respectively, which represents amounts
billed on behalf of professional athletes relating to sporting contracts and
marketing and endorsement contracts. Such amounts are to be paid, net of the
Company's commission, to the professional athletes upon collection.


PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a
straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from five to
seven years.


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.


INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The unaudited interim information as of June 30, 1998 and for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 has been prepared on the same basis as the
annual financial statements and, in the opinion of the Company's management,
reflects normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
information for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily
indicative of results for a full year. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.


INCOME TAXES

     Income taxes are provided on the liability method as required by Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes." Deferred income taxes (which are not material), reflect the net tax
effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income
tax purposes.

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company leases its office space. The lease provides for escalations of
rent based upon the increase in certain operating expenses.

     Future minimum payments under noncancelable operating leases is as
follows:

     Rent expense was $32,878, $16,309, and $14,242 for the year ended December
31, 1997 and for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively.


4. SIGNIFICANT CLIENTS

     For the year ended December 31, 1997, three professional athletes
accounted for approximately 32%, 18% and 11% of consolidated revenue,
respectively.

     For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, two professional athletes
accounted for approximately 12% and 12% and 34% and 6% of consolidated revenue,
respectively.


5. IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)

     The Company has conducted a review of its computer systems to identify the
systems that could be effected by the "Year 2000" issue and has developed an
implementation plan to resolve the issue. The Company presently believes that,
with modifications to existing software, the cost of which is not material to
the results of operations or financial condition of the Company, the Year 2000
problem will not pose significant operational problems for the Company's
computer systems.


6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On August 6, 1998, The Marquee Group, Inc. consummated its acquisition of
all of the outstanding stock of Cambridge Sports International, Inc. The
aggregate purchase price was approximately $3.5 million in cash and 89,536
shares of The Marquee Group, Inc.'s common stock.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Directors and the Shareholders of Park Associates Limited.


     We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Park Associates Limited
("the Company") as of December 31, 1997 and the related statements of profit
and loss account and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1997 all
expressed in pounds sterling, (together, "the financial statements") which, as
described in the financial statements (pages A-17 to A-27), have been prepared
on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Directors of the
Company. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.


     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in the United Kingdom, which are substantially the same as auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States. These 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
audit provides 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 Park Associates Limited as
of December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the year ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United Kingdom.


     United Kingdom accounting principles vary in certain material respects
from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The
application of the latter would have affected the determination of
shareholders' equity and financial position as of December 31, 1997, and the
determination of net profit for year ended December 31, 1997 to the extent
summarized in Note 22 to the financial statements.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997


1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES


BASIS OF PREPARATION

     The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention.

     The principal accounting policies of the company have remained unchanged
from the previous year and are set out below.


TURNOVER

     Turnover is the gross amount receivable by the company, invoiced on behalf
of the clients when the company acts as agents and for other services provided,
excluding VAT and trade discounts.


INCOME FROM INVESTMENTS

     Investment income comprises interest receivable on bank deposits.


DEPRECIATION

     Depreciation is calculated to write down the cost less estimated residual
value of all tangible fixed assets other than freehold land and buildings by
the reducing balance method. The rates generally applicable are:



<TABLE>
<S>                                  <C>
   Motor vehicles ................   25%
   Fixtures and fittings .........   10%
   Computer equipment ............   33%
</TABLE>

     No depreciation is provided on freehold land and buildings as it is the
company's policy to maintain these assets in a continual state of sound repair.
The useful lives of these assets are thus so long and residual values so high
that any depreciation would not be material. Residual values are based on
prices prevailing at the date of acquisition or subsequent valuation. Provision
is made in the profit and loss account for any permanent diminution in value.


INVESTMENTS

     Investments are included at cost less amounts written off. Profits or
losses arising from disposals of fixed asset investments are treated as part of
the result from ordinary activities.


DEFERRED TAXATION

     Deferred tax is provided using the tax rates estimated to arise when the
timing differences reverse and is accounted for to the extent that it is
probable that a liability or asset will crystallize. Unprovided deferred tax is
disclosed as a contingent liability.

     Debit balances arising in respect of advance corporation tax on dividends
payable or proposed are carried forward to the extent that they are expected to
be recoverable.


FOREIGN CURRENCIES

     Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate
ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in
foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange


                                      A-20

                     FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
 
ruling at the balance sheet date. Where exchange differences result from the
translation of foreign currency borrowings raised to acquire foreign assets
they are taken to reserves and offset against the differences arising from the
translation of those assets. All other exchange differences are dealt with
through the profit and loss account.


CONTRIBUTIONS TO PENSION FUNDS


DEFINED CONTRIBUTION SCHEME


     The pension costs charged against profits represent the amount of the
contributions payable to the scheme in respect of the accounting period.


LEASED ASSETS


     All other leases are regarded as operating leases and the payments made
under them are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.

     In preparing the summary of differences between UK and US GAAP, management
is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities,
and the estimates of revenue and expenses. Accounting estimates have been
employed in these financial statements to determine reported amounts, including
realizability, useful lives of tangible assets, income taxes and other areas.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     The following is a description of the US GAAP reconciling item:

     Under UK GAAP no depreciation has been provided on freehold buildings as
it is the company's policy to maintain these assets in a continual state of
sound repair. The useful lives of these assets are thus so long and residual
values so high that any depreciation would not be material. Residual value is
based on prices prevailing at the date of acquisition or subsequent valuation.

     For US GAAP purposes the acquisition cost of the freehold buildings is
depreciated over 39 years from the original date of purchase.

CASH FLOW INFORMATION

     Under UK GAAP, the Cash Flow Statement is presented in accordance with UK
Financial Reporting Standard No. 1, as revised ("FRS 1"). The Statement
prepared under FRS 1 presents substantially the same information as that
required under US GAAP as interpreted by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 95.

     Under UK GAAP, cash flows are presented for operating activities; returns
on investments and servicing of finance; taxation; capital expenditure and
financial investment acquisitions and disposals and equity dividends paid. US
GAAP requires the classification of cash flows as resulting from operating,
investing and financing activities.

                     FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
 
     Cash flows under UK GAAP in respect of interest received and taxation
would be included within the operating activities. Capital expenditure and
financial investment and cash flows from acquisitions and disposals would be
included within investing activities under US GAAP. Equity dividends paid would
be included within financing activities under US GAAP.

6. RECONCILIATION TO US GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
     (US GAAP)

     The US GAAP reconciliations of net profit/(loss) and shareholders' equity
included herein is unaudited. Certain information and disclosures, normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP, have been
omitted as permitted by such requirements. However, the company believes that
the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.


SUMMARY OF DIFFERENCES BETWEEN UK AND US GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING
PRINCIPLES ("GAAP")

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom ("UK
GAAP"), which differ in certain material respects from generally accepted
accounting principle in the United States ("US GAAP"). Such differences involve
methods for measuring the amounts shown in the financial statements, as well as
additional disclosures required by US GAAP.

     The following is a summary of the material adjustments to profit/(loss) on
ordinary activities and shareholders' equity which would have been required in
applying the significant differences between UK and US GAAP.

     (a) Reconciliation of profit and loss accounts for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997:

</TABLE>

     In preparing the summary of differences between UK and US GAAP, management
is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities,
and the estimates of revenue and expenses. Accounting estimates have been
employed in these financial statements to determine reported amounts, including
realizability, useful lives of tangible assets, income taxes and other areas.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.


     The following is a description of the US GAAP reconciling item:


     Under UK GAAP no depreciation has been provided on freehold buildings as
it is the company's policy to maintain these assets in a continual state of
sound repair. The useful lives of these assets are thus so long and residual
values so high that any depreciation would not be material. Residual value is
based on prices prevailing at the date of acquisition or subsequent valuation.


     For US GAAP purposes the acquisition cost of the freehold buildings is
depreciated over 39 years from the original date of purchase.


     CASH FLOW INFORMATION


     Under UK GAAP, the Cash Flow Statement is presented in accordance with UK
Financial Reporting Standard No. 1, as revised ("FRS 1"). The Statement
prepared under FRS 1 presents substantially the same information as that
required under US GAAP as interpreted by SFAS No. 95.


     Under UK GAAP, cash flows are presented for operating activities; returns
on investments and servicing of finance; taxation; capital expenditure and
financial investment acquisitions and disposals and equity dividends paid. US
GAAP requires the classification of cash flows as resulting from operating,
investing and financing activities.


     Cash flows under UK GAAP in respect of interest received and taxation
would b included within the operating activities. Capital expenditure and
financial investment and cash flows from acquisitions and disposals would be
included within investing activities under US GAAP. Equity dividends paid would
be included within financing activities under US GAAP.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


Board of Directors
The Marquee Group, Inc.



     We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Tollin-Robbins
Entertainment as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related combined
statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity
(deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 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 combined financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Tollin-Robbins Entertainment at December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

               AND SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1997 IS UNAUDITED)


1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS ACTIVITIES

     The combined financial statements of Tollin-Robbins Entertainment are
comprised of the following entities: Tollin-Robbins Productions; Halcyon Days
Productions, Inc. (Halcyon); Robbins Entertainment Group, Inc. (Robbins); and
Tollin-Robbins Management (TRM) (collectively referred to herein as the
Company). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated.

     Tollin-Robbins Productions, a California General Partnership (the
Partnership), was formed in November 1993. Halcyon and Robbins are the equal
partners of the Partnership. Profit and losses are allocated equally to each
partner. The Partnership is engaged in the business of providing executive
producer, director, writer, post-production, and other creative services to
owners and distributors of entertainment programming.

     Halcyon was incorporated in California in November 1990, and is an S
Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code; Mr. Tollin is the sole stockholder
of this entity. Robbins was initially incorporated in California in May 1991 as
a C Corporation and elected, effective January 1, 1998, an S Corporation status
under the Internal Revenue Code. Mr. Robbins is the sole stockholder of this
entity. These two entities each receive their 50% share of the results of
operations generated by the Partnership.

     TRM, a California limited liability company which was formed in April
1997, is engaged in the business of providing management services to artists.
Messrs. Tollin and Robbins are the sole members of TRM. TRM typically receives
a percentage of the compensation paid to the artists it represents.

recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the combined financial
information set forth therein, in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The results of operations for the six month period ended June 30,
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
entire fiscal year.


SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER

     Approximately 79% in 1997 and 87% in 1996 of the Company's total producer
fees and post-production revenues shown in the accompanying combined statement
of operations was received from Nickelodeon/MTV Networks and affiliated
companies.


REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Executive producer and other creative services revenue is recognized as
the related production services are rendered. Pursuant to a two-year production
services agreement with Nickelodeon/MTV Networks (Agreement) which commenced as
of February 1, 1996, the Partnership will receive $1,750,000 per year in
guaranteed payments (payable in equal bi-monthly installments over the term).
Such revenue is recognized ratably over the Agreement's term. In addition to
the guaranteed payments, the Partnership received a signing bonus of $500,000,
which is being recognized ratably over the original two year term. Both parties
to the Agreement have agreed to extend the term to a third year (February 1,
1998 -- January 31, 1999). The Partnership will receive a guaranteed minimum
payment of $2,500,000 for its services over the third year.

     Management fee commissions are recognized as services are rendered by the
related artists who are represented by TRM.


CASH EQUIVALENTS

     The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less and investments in money market
accounts to be cash equivalents.


MARKETABLE SECURITIES

     Marketable securities are accounted for using Statement of Financial
Account Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities." At June 30, 1998, the Company's marketable securities,
all of which are classified as available-for sale as defined by SFAS 115,
consist primarily of municipal securities. Pursuant to SFAS 115, such
investments are stated at market value, and unrealized gains and losses on such
securities are reflected, net of tax, in other comprehensive income or loss.


PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method, generally ranging from
seven to ten years.


INCOME TAXES

     Income taxes are accounted for using Statement of Financial Account
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this method, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply
to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date.


COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     Effective January 1, 1998 the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS 130
established new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components; however, the adoption of this Statement had no impact on the
Company's net income or shareholders' equity. SFAS 130 requires unrealized
gains and losses on the Company's available-for-sale securities to be included
in other comprehensive income.

     For the six month period ended June 30, 1998, the Company's comprehensive
income was $2,006,000. The comprehensive income differs from the net income in
the first six months of 1998 due to the inclusion of the Company's unrealized
loss on marketable securities in its comprehensive income.


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 amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT)

     The Company's capital stock consists of the common stock of Halcyon and

5. INCOME TAXES

     Partnerships and limited liability companies are not subject to federal or

provided for the Partnership and TRM. The partners of the Partnership and
members of TRM are required to report their proportional share of gains,
losses, credits and deductions on their respective income tax returns.

     Halcyon is an S Corporation under Section 1361 of the Internal Revenue
Code. Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, federal and state
taxes based on income for S Corporations are generally the direct liability of
the stockholders. Therefore, no federal and state tax provision has been
provided on S Corporation earnings other than certain state minimum taxes based
on income.

     Robbins was a C Corporation as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 and,
accordingly, was subject to federal and state taxes. Robbins elected S
Corporation status effective January 1, 1998; accordingly, no federal and state
tax provision has been provided for the three months ended June 30, 1998 other
than certain state minimum taxes based on income.

     The Company's provision for income taxes (benefit) consists of the
applicable amounts based on Robbins' result of operations and was as follows

8. YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)


     Until recently, computer programs were written to store only two digits of
date-related information in order to more efficiently handle and store data.
Such programs are unable to properly distinguish between the year 1900 and the
year 2000. This situation is frequently referred to as the "Year 2000 problem."
The Company believes that all of its own computer software is year 2000
compliant and that it will not need to make significant modifications or
replacements to its software so that its computer systems will function
properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and beyond.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Directors and the shareholders of Tony Stephens Associates
Limited


     We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Tony Stephens Associates
Limited ("the Company") as of April 30, 1998 and the related statements of
profit and loss account and cash flows for the year ended April 30, 1998 all
expressed in pounds sterling, (together, "the financial statements") which, as
described in the financial statements (pages A-45 to A-50), have been prepared
on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Directors of the
Company. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.


     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in the
United Kingdom, which are substantially the same as auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States. These 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
audit provides 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 Tony Stephens Associates
Limited as of April 30, 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the year ended April 30, 1998, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom.


     United Kingdom accounting principles vary in certain respects from
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The application
of the latter would have affected the determination of shareholders' equity and
financial position as of April 30, 1998 and the determination of net profit for
year ended April 30, 1998 to the extent summarised in Note 11 to the financial
statements.

at the date of acquisition, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life,
as follows:

     Equipment and vehicles - over 4 years


DEFERRED TAXATION

     Deferred taxation is provided using the liability method on all timing
differences which are expected to reverse in the future without being replaced,
calculated at the rate at which it is anticipated the timing differences will
reverse. Advance corporation tax which is expected to be recoverable in the
future is deducted from the deferred taxation balance.

     Deferred tax assets are only recognised if recovery without replacement by
equivalent debit balances is reasonably certain.


CONTRIBUTIONS TO PENSION FUNDS

     The pension costs for the money purchase scheme charged against profits
represent the amount of the contributions payable to the scheme in respect of
the accounting period.


LEASED ASSETS

     All other leases are regarded as operating leases and the payments made
under them are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.

               PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements
as at and for the six months ended June 30, 1998 gives effect to the following

the Marquee Recent Acquisitions and the related impact of compensation

     The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based
upon, and should be read in conjunction with: (i) the Company's Consolidated
Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 1997 (included
in the Company's Form 10-K); (ii) the Company's Condensed Consolidated

have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial
statements using the purchase method of accounting. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments necessary to fairly present this pro forma
information have been made. The pro forma information does not purport to be
indicative of the results that would have been reported had such events

future results if the transactions are completed. The Company cannot predict
whether the consummation its acquisitions will conform to the assumptions used
in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial
statements. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations data include
adjustments to operating expenses to reflect anticipated savings that
management believes it will be able to achieve through the implementation of
its operating strategy. However, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to achieve such savings.


     The following financial statements and notes thereto contain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The actual
results of the Company may differ materially from those discussed herein.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not
limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the revenues of the businesses
owned and acquired, the integration of the businesses acquired and management
of growth and the ability of the Company to achieve strong savings. The Company
undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to
these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events
or circumstances.
