A. ORGANIZATION
DataMEG CORP., a development stage enterprise, (the "Company"), was
incorporated in the State of Virginia in January 1999. The Company
is a technology development enterprise focused on introducing to the
marketplace a technology it has developed, which it has termed
Communications Acceleration System (CAS). CAS is a high-speed data
transmission processor that uses, primarily, Plain Old Telephone
Service (POTS) as the communication medium to interface between the
transmission source and the receiving entity.
In August 2000, the Company consummated a share exchange with a non-
operating public shell corporation (see Note L).
B. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of accounting - The accounts of the Company are maintained on
the accrual basis of accounting whereby revenue is recognized when
earned, and costs and expenses are recognized when incurred.
Use of estimates - 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 revenues and expenses. Actual
results could vary from those estimates.
Property and equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation and amortization is determined using the straight-line
method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years.
Intangible assets - Intangible assets consisted of costs incurred related
to a pending patent as of December 31, 1999. Patent costs are amortized
over seventeen years using the straight-line method. For the period from
January 13, 1999 to December 31, 1999 no amortization expense related to
patents was recorded since the patent is still pending.
Advertising - Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred.
For the period from January 13, 1999 to December 31, 1999, amounts
charged to operations were $5,000.
Software development costs - Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
("SFAS") No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be
Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed", requires capitalization of certain
software development costs subsequent to the establishment of
technological feasibility and readiness of general release. Costs
incurred by the Company between the completion of technological
feasibility and general release have been insignificant and have been
charged to expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Fair value of financial instruments - The carrying value of cash, notes
receivable and notes payable approximate fair value because of the
relatively short maturity of these instruments.
<PAGE> 9
B. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income Taxes - The Company, a C-corporation, accounts for income taxes
under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes." Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and
tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted
tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are
expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary
to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The
principal differences are net operating losses, start-up costs and the
use of accelerated depreciation methods to calculate depreciation expense
for income tax purposes.
Stock-based compensation - In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", which encourages companies to
recognize expense for stock-based awards based on their estimated fair
value on the grant date. SFAS is effective beginning with the year ending
December 31, 1996. SFAS No. 123 permits companies to account for stock-
based compensation based on provisions prescribed in SFAS No. 123 or
based on the authoritative guidance in Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". The Company
has elected to account for its stock based compensation in accordance
with APB 25 which uses the intrinsic value method. The Company accounts
for all other issuances of equity instruments in accordance with SFAS
No. 123.
Net loss per common share - The Company reports basic and diluted
earnings per share ("EPS") according to the provisions of SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share." SFAS No. 128 requires the presentation of basic EPS
and, for companies with complex capital structures, diluted EPS. As the
Company has only common stock outstanding and no common stock equivalents,
only basic EPS is presented. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed
by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common
stockholders, adjusted by any convertible preferred dividends; the
after-tax amount of interest recognized in the period associated with any
convertible debt; and any other changes in income or loss that would
result from the assumed conversion of those potential common shares, by
the weighted number of common shares and common share equivalents (unless
their effect is anti-dilutive) outstanding.
Capital Structure - SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital
Structure," requires a summary presentation of the pertinent rights and
privileges of the various securities outstanding. The Company's
outstanding stock is completely comprised of voting common stock. There
are no other rights or privileges to disclose.
<PAGE> 10
B. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Comprehensive Income - SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income,"
establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its
components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during
a period from transactions and other events from non-owner sources.
Entities that do not have items of other comprehensive income in any
period presented are not required to report comprehensive income,
accordingly the Company has not made any such disclosure in the statements
presented herein.
Segment Information - SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." requires public enterprises to report
certain information about operating segments, including products and
services, geographic areas of operations, and major customers. The Company
has determined that it does not have any separately reportable business
segments for period ending December 31, 1999.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities - In June 1998, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." It establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded
in other contracts and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity
recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance
sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. The FASB has recently
issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities- Deferral of Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133." The
Statement defers the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. Management believes that the adoption of
this standard will not have a material effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

loss carryforwards that may be applied against future taxable income
that expire in 2019.

G. STOCK SPLITS
In April 1999, the Board of Directors authorized a 100 to 1 stock split
of the Company's $1 par value common stock. As a result of the stock
split, 9,829,067 additional shares were issued, and par value was
reduced to $.01 per share.
In October 1999, the Board of Directors authorized a 1.45 to 1 stock
split of the Company's $.01 par value common stock. As a result of the
stock split, 4,615,433 additional shares were issued, and par value was
reduced to $.0069 per share.
All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of
common shares have been restated to reflect the stock splits.

Company has entered into an agreement with the same consultant for
consideration totaling 3% of outstanding stock and 4% in warrants,

CONTINGENCIES
In February 2000, a complaint was filed against the Company alleging that
the Company and several of its officers breached a nondisclosure and
confidentiality agreement with the plaintiff and violated the Uniform
Trade Secrets Act. The plaintiff seeks compensatory and punitive damages
in unspecified amounts. Management believes that such claims are without
merit and that the Company and its officers have not violated the rights
of the plaintiff. As of the date of this report, management is unable to
estimate the amount of any losses which may be associated with the
complaint.
J. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

to December 31, 1999 were approximately $157,000.
<PAGE> 15
K. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. The Company
maintains its cash account with a commercial bank located in Virginia.
Cash balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,
up to $100,000 per financial institution. At December 31, 1999, the
Company had no uninsured cash balances.
L. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In February 2000, a complaint was filed against the Company (see Note I).
In July 2000, the Company adopted a stock incentive plan. The maximum
number of shares which may be awarded under the plan is 3,000,000. Any
person deemed eligible by the Stock Incentive Committee may receive
shares or options under the plan; option awards may be in the form of
an incentive option or a nonqualified stock option. Stock options issued
under the plan vest over several years, unless accelerated by the Stock
Incentive Committee.
In July 2000, the Company issued convertible subordinated debentures
totaling $140,000. The terms of the debentures require interest payable
at twelve percent per annum with a maturity date of one year from the
date of advance unless mutually extended. The debentures are subordinate
and junior to existing liabilities of the Company and any subsequent
borrowings from banks or insurance companies. The debentures may be
converted to common stock at a price of $2.50 per share.
In August 2000, the Company consummated a share exchange with a public
shell company, the Viola Group, Inc. ("Viola"). In the share exchange
the Company exchanged all its outstanding shares for 90% of the issued
and outstanding voting common stock of Viola. As a result of the
transaction, the stockholders of Viola owned in the aggregate, 3,300,007
shares as of the date of the share exchange. The stockholders of DataMEG
owned, as a result of the share exchange, 90% of the issued and
outstanding common stock of Viola, equaling approximately 29,700,627
shares as of the date of the share exchange. In addition, the Company
was required to pay consulting fees totaling $250,000 to an officer of
Viola and assume tax liabilities totaling approximately $30,000. As a
result of the merger, DataMEG became the operating company. The company
operates under the name of DataMEG Corp. and trades under the symbol
DTMG on the OTC-BB.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information
1. Basis of presentation
DataMEG, Corp. ("DataMEG") and the Viola Group, Inc. ("Viola") entered
into a share exchange transaction that is essentially a reverse acquisition
with a public shell corporation. The pro forma adjustments reflect the
changes to stockholder's equity as of June 30, 2000.
Effective August 18, 2000, all of the issued and outstanding shares of
DataMEG were exchanged for shares of Viola's common stock equaling 90% of
the issued and outstanding voting common stock of Viola. As a result of
such transaction, the stockholders of Viola now own 10% of the issued and
outstanding shares of Viola, totaling 3,300,007 shares. The stockholders
of DataMEG now own 90% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Viola,
totaling approximately 29,700,627 shares. As a result of the transaction,
DataMEG is a wholly owned subsidiary of Viola. The acquisition will be
accounted for as a public shell acquisition in accordance with accounting
interpretations and guidance issued by the Division of Corporation Finance
of the SEC. This transaction is, in substance, a re-capitalization of
DataMEG. DataMEG will become the reporting entity for accounting purposes.
No net monetary assets of Viola were acquired in the share exchange.
In conjunction with the share exchange, the Company is required to pay
consulting fees totaling $250,000 to an officer of Viola and is required
to issue 3% of outstanding shares of stock and 4% in warrants to a
consultant. The effect of these non-recurring costs has not been
considered in the accompanying pro forma earnings per share calculation.
The pro forma condensed balance sheet is based on the unaudited historical
information of DataMEG as of June 30, 2000. The information contained
therein is not necessarily indicative of that which would have been
attained had the transaction occurred at an earlier date and should be
read in conjunction with the historical financial statements used in the
preparation of such statements.
2. Pro forma adjustments
(1) To adjust stockholders equity to reflect the share exchange.
(2) To adjust for the net liabilities of Viola assumed by DataMEG.
(3) Basic pro-forma-earnings per share is computed using the
weighted average number of DataMEG common shares outstanding
during the period as adjusted to reflect the share exchange
ratio.
