                SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS DURING REPORTING PERIOD

For the Period Beginning August 2, 1998 and Ending August 29, 1998 (fiscal month
per books)



The Company filed an 8-K report with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
August 19, 1998 announcing that on August 17, 1998, the Company filed with the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court the Debtor's Monthly Financial Report (Business) for the
period July 5, 1998 to August 1, 1998.

The Company issued a press release on August 28, 1998 announcing that it entered
into an agreement with Sterne, Agee and Leach, Inc., whereby Sterne Agee will,
as of the effective date of the Plan of Reorganization of 2Connect filed with
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of Florida, acquire out of
bankruptcy 100% of the equity interests of 2Connect and 2Connect will retain the
Coral Square store lease and certain store fixtures. In consideration for such
acquisition, Sterne Agee will make a new value contribution to the bankruptcy
estate for the benefit of 2Connect's creditors in the amount of $175,000 which
funds are currently in escrow. To effect this transaction and in accordance with
the Plan of Reorganization, as amended on August 7, 1998, upon the Effective
Date, all of the current and existing Common Stock of 2Connect will be forever
extinguished and canceled and 2Connect will issue new shares of Common Stock to
Sterne Agee which shall constitute 100% of the issued and outstanding shares.
The Bankruptcy Court scheduled a hearing to confirm the Plan of Reorganization
for October 14, 1998. The Effective Date is to occur 10 days after confirmation
of the Plan of Reorganization.

Also pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, and effective August 27, 1998, all
of the members of the Board of Directors, except for Marc D. Fishman, resigned
from the Board of Directors and Mr. Fishman, as sole remaining director, and, in
accordance with the Bylaws of 2Connect, appointed James S. Holbrook, Jr., Craig
R. Heyward and F. Eugene Woodham, each of whom are employees of Sterne, Agee, to
fill three of the vacancies. The Board of Directors has further resolved to
appoint James S. Holbrook, Jr. as the Chairman of the Board and, in accordance
with the Bylaws of 2Connect, to designate that the Chairman of the Board is the
Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

The Company subsequently on September 1, 1998, filed an 8-K report with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, containing the aforementioned Press Release
information and, as an Exhibit, the Agreement by and between the Company and
Sterne, Agee dated August 27, 1998.
