                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


   To The Trustees of Medical Resources, Inc.
   401(k) Retirement Plan

   We have audited the statements of net assets available for plan benefits of
   Medical Resources, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan as of December 31, 1999 and
   1998 and the related statements of changes in net assets available for plan
   benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
   responsibility of the Plan'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 audits 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 net assets available for plan benefits of Medical
   Resources, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and
   the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then
   ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

   Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
   financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of Medical
   Resources, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan are presented for purposes of
   complying with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting
   and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and
   are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The supplemental
   schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
   of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in
   all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as
   a whole.

Note 1-  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

         The following description of Medical Resources, Inc. 401(k) Retirement
         Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants
         should refer to the Plan Agreement for a more complete description of
         the Plan's provisions.

    a.   ELIGIBILITY

         The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of
         Medical Resources Inc. (the "Plan Sponsor") and (the "Company") who are
         at least twenty one years of age and have completed one year of
         service. The Plan is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security
         Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

    b.   EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTION

         The Company will contribute for each Plan year an amount in accordance
         with the participants' compensation reduction election as described in
         the Plan Agreement, plus an additional 50% of such amount not to exceed
         2% of the participant's compensation.

         The amounts contributed to the Plan each Plan year as a result of the
         participants' election to have their earnings reduced may not exceed
         the lesser of $10,000 for 1999 and 1998 or 15% of their compensation,
         as described in the Plan Agreement.

    c.   PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

         Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
         contribution and allocations of (a) the Company's matching contribution
         and, (b) Plan earnings. The benefit to which a participant is entitled
         is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested
         account.

                  YEARS OF SERVICE              VESTED PERCENTAGE

    e.   INVESTMENT OPTIONS

         Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employee and
         employer contributions in any of the following investment options:

         Merrill Lynch Mutual Funds - Funds are invested in shares of any one or
         a combination of six registered investment companies that invest in
         common stocks, corporate bonds, U.S. Government Securities, short term
         money market instruments, or a combination thereof.

         Medical Resources, Inc. Company Stock - Funds are invested in common
         stock of Medical resources, Inc.

         Participants may change their investment options in accordance with
         Plan procedures.

    f.   TERMINATION OF PARTICIPATION

         A participant whose employment ends for any reason other than death,
         disability or retirement will be entitled to receive only that portion
         of benefits in which they are vested. Any non-vested benefit will be
         forfeited and used to reduce future employer contributions to the Plan.
         Participants become fully vested upon death, disability, normal
         retirement age (59 1/2) or early retirement age (55) and completion of
         three years of service.

    g.   LOANS

         A Participant may borrow from his account subject to approval of the
         Plan Administrator. The loan and subsequent repayment of principal and
         interest shall be credited directly to the participant's account and
         shall not be treated as income of the trust fund. The outstanding loans
         to a participant shall not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the
         value of the participant's account as of the most recent valuation
         date. Generally, loans shall be repaid in regular installments of
         interest and principal, not less frequently than quarterly, over a
         period not to exceed five years. Upon termination of the participants'
         employment with the Company the loan balance will become immediately
         due.

    a.   BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

         The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual
         method of accounting.

    b.   ESTIMATES

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles requires the plan administrator to make
         estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and
         disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those
         estimates.

    c.   INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION

         The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Shares of registered
         investment companies are valued at quoted market prices which represent
         the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. The Company
         stock is valued at its quoted market price. Participant notes
         receivable are valued at cost which approximates fair value. Purchases
         and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest
         income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
         ex-dividend date.

Note 3-  PLAN TERMINATIONS

         The Company has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan at any
         time subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan
         termination, participants will be 100% vested, and the Trustee will
         continue to administer the Trust and pay benefits in accordance with
         the Plan Agreement.

Note 4-  INCOME TAX STATUS

         The Trust established under the Plan to hold the Plan's net assets is
         qualified pursuant to Section 501(c)9 of the Internal Revenue Code,
         and, accordingly, the Trust's net investment income is exempt from
         income taxes. The Sponsor has obtained a favorable tax determination
         letter from the Internal Revenue Service and the Sponsor believes that
         the Plan, as amended, continues to qualify and to operate as designed.

Note 6-  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         On March 29, 2000, Medical Resources, Inc. (the "Company") entered into
         an agreement-in-principle with the holders of its $75,000,000 of Senior
         Notes providing for conversion of the full amount of the debt into
         approximately 84% of the common equity of the Company. In addition,
         under the agreement-in-principle with the holders of the Senior Notes,
         an additional $5,121,000 of unsecured notes would also be converted
         into approximately 6% of the common equity of the Company. On April 7,
         2000, the Company filed a Joint Plan of Reorganization reflecting the
         terms of the agreement-in-principle and commenced proceedings under
         Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. The Joint Plan of
         Reorganization is subject to Bankruptcy Court approval and applies only
         to the parent company and none of its operating subsidiaries. In
         addition, physician relationships, trade credit and employee
         obligations of the Company, including obligations related to the 401(k)
         Retirement Plan, will not be impaired. There can be no assurance,
         however, that the Company will be successful in consummating the
         reorganization as described above.
