Board of Directors and Stockholders
Phynque, Inc.
         d/b/a Management Compensation Group/Healthcare
Minneapolis, Minnesota


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of PHYNQUE, INC., d/b/a
MANAGEMENT COMPENSATION GROUP/HEALTHCARE, as of September 30, 1998 and 1997,
and the related statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 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 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 PHYNQUE, INC., d/b/a
MANAGEMENT COMPENSATION GROUP/HEALTHCARE, as of September 30, 1998 and 1997,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended September 30, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                 d/b/a MANAGEMENT COMPENSATION GROUP/HEALTHCARE
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 1.    The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -

       The Company

       Phynque, Inc., d/b/a Management Compensation Group/Healthcare, designs
       and implements deferred compensation programs and insurance coverage,
       and provides consulting and administrative services throughout the
       United States. The Company's primary clients include healthcare
       providers such as hospitals and medical clinics.

       Use of Estimates

       The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with
       generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
       estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and
       disclosures in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
       results could differ from these estimates. Significant management
       estimates relate to bonuses receivable on first year commissions.

       Cash Equivalents

       All highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of
       three months or less are considered cash equivalents.

       Credit Risk

       Significant concentrations of credit risk exist in cash and cash
       equivalents, investments (held by a limited number of financial
       institutions) and receivables which, although due from entities
       dispersed across different geographic regions, are concentrated in the
       health care and life insurance industries.

       Financial Instruments

       The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, investments,
       receivables, line of credit borrowings, accounts payable, commissions
       and bonuses payable, and other financial instruments approximate their
       fair values principally because of their short-term nature. The carrying
       value of long-term debt does not differ significantly from its fair
       value. It is not practicable to determine the fair value of
       stockholders/officers advances receivable as the relationship of the
       parties to the Company influences the terms, and similar instruments are
       not generally available.

       Property and Equipment

       Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated
       depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method
       over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 5 to 12 years.

       Artwork

       Artwork, which is held for investment purposes, is carried at the lower
       of cost or market value. No depreciation is provided.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



 1.    The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (continued)

       Revenue Recognition

       First year insurance commission and bonus revenue is recognized at the
       time the insured party is contractually committed to purchase the
       policy. Renewal commissions are recognized when the policy premium is
       due. Cancellations and other adjustments, which are deemed to be
       immaterial, are recognized in the year the cancellation or adjustment is
       determined.

       Fixed price consulting contracts generally last six months, and revenues
       are recognized as amounts are billed. Management believes that overall
       this method recognizes revenues as earned and also matches revenues with
       expenses.

       Advertising Costs

       Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and totalled $43,839,
       $29,985, and $40,315 for the years ended September 30, 1998, 1997 and
       1996, respectively.

       Income Taxes

       No income tax provision is included in these financial statements as the
       Company elected to be taxed as an S corporation under the provisions of
       the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state regulations.

       Recent Accounting Pronouncements

       The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statements of
       Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
       (SFAS 130), No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
       Related Information" (SFAS 131), No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about
       Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" (SFAS 132), and No. 133,
       "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (SFAS
       133). SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of
       comprehensive income and components in financial statements. SFAS 131
       establishes standards for public enterprises to report operating segment
       information. SFAS 132 revised disclosure standards about pension and
       other post retirement plans. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and
       reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
       derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging
       activities. All are effective for years beginning after December 15,
       1997, except SFAS 133 which is effective for years beginning after June
       15, 1999. Management believes that implementation of these Statements
       will not have a material effect on the financial statements.


 2.    Investment in Securities -

       Investments in securities are accounted for as available-for-sale
       securities and consist of mutual funds. Cost of the funds approximates
       market value. The securities are restricted for deferred compensations
       benefits.

 9.    Deferred Compensation Plan -

       The unfunded deferred compensation plan provides retirement benefits to

       the period of employment and are payable in 120 equal monthly
       installments following termination of employment. Interest is imputed at
       8%.

       The Plan requires benefits due retired employee stockholders/officers to
       be paid before any sale of the Company (Note 16). Accordingly, current
       maturities of deferred compensation at September 30, 1998, includes the
       entire deferred compensation liability due retired employee
       stockholders/officers with the remaining balance due starting in 2002.


10.    Benefit Plans -

       The defined contribution pension plan covers all full-time employees who

       first $160,000 of each participant's compensation plus 5.5% of
       compensation exceeding the social security wage base to $160,000.
       Pension expense was $514,032, $542,952 and $449,152 for the years ended
       September 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

       The profit-sharing plan covers all full-time employees who have
       completed one year of service. Contributions are determined annually by
       the Board of Directors. The 401(k) incentive savings plan includes all
       full-time employees. The Company contributes 100% of each employee's
       contribution up to a maximum of 3% of compensation. Profit sharing and
       401(k) incentive savings plans contributions were $271,252, $237,023 and

       On November 1, 1998, the Company retroactively terminated deferred
