           NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

1.  GENERAL
    -------

The pro forma data presented herein includes the effects of the merger between
View Tech, Inc. ("View Tech") and USTeleCenters, Inc. ("UST") which was
consummated on November 29, 1996. Such pro forma information is derived from the
unaudited balance sheets and statements of operations of View Tech and UST as of
September 30, 1996 and 1995 and for the three months then ended.

2.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
    --------------------

The pro forma adjustments to common stock, paid in capital and treasury stock as
of September 30, 1996 and 1995, reflect the issuance of 2,240,976 shares of View
Tech common stock for all of the outstanding shares of UST common stock,
representing a Conversion Ratio of 0.24534 View Tech share for each share of UST
common stock.  Shareholder distributions shown on the pro forma condensed
combined balance sheets for UST as of September 30, 1996 and 1995 have been
reflected in the combined companies retained earnings since UST converted to a C
corporation upon closing of the Merger.

3.  MERGER EXPENSES
    ---------------

Under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting, costs associated with the
merger of View Tech and UST are treated as an expense of the combined company.
The accompanying pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not
reflect the expense associated with the Merger, which are estimated to be
approximately $2.5 million pre-tax and $1.5 million after-tax, that will be
recorded in the first period that financial statements of the combined companies
are presented, since such expenses are non-recurring.  The after-tax effect of
these expenses are, however, reflected in the accompanying pro forma condensed
combined balance sheets as of September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, as a
liability and as a reduction to retained earnings.  Merger expenses consist
primarily of professional fees including, investment advisory, legal and
accounting fees.  The tax effect of the Merger expenses was calculated using
View Tech's effective combined federal and state income tax rate of
approximately 40%.

4.  WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES OUTSTANDING
    -----------------------------------

The weighted average number of shares shown in the pro forma combined statements
of operations for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 for UST
represents the number of shares of View Tech common stock issued to the UST
stockholders in connection with the Merger.  The weighted average number of
shares shown in the for View Tech for the three months ended September 30, 1996
and 1995 represents the actual weighted average shares outstanding for View Tech
at such dates.

<PAGE>
 
5.  INCOME TAXES
    ------------

UST was an S corporation prior to the merger.  As an S corporation, UST was
generally not subject to federal income taxes.  Instead the stockholders were
taxed on their respective share of UST income at the stockholder's individual
federal and state income tax rates.  Accordingly, there was no provision for
federal income taxes recorded by UST for the three months ended September 30,
1996 and 1995.  Effective with the closing of the merger, UST converted to a C
corporation.  Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
include a  provision for income taxes to reflect income taxes as if UST had been
combined with View Tech during such periods.

6.  NOTE PAYABLE
    ------------

Represents the elimination of a note receivable/payable balance between View
Tech and UST as of September 30, 1996.
