   SUPERCENTER ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION - RETAIL DIVISION


   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1993



   1.    GENERAL AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

   General

   The accompanying financial statements relate to the accounts of the retail
   division (retail video centers located in K-Mart and Wal-Mart) of
   Supercenter Entertainment Corporation (the "Retail Division").  Supercenter
   Entertainment Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in December 1991
   and operated under the name CEVAXS U.S. Corporation through August 1994, at
   which time the name was changed to Supercenter Entertainment Corporation. 
   From December 1991 through October 1992, the Company's sole operation was
   in wholesale video services to the supermarket industry.  Beginning in
   October 1992, the Company expanded its operation to include Company-owned
   retail video centers located in stores owned by Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.  In
   early 1994, the Company expanded its host retailer relationships to include
   K-Mart Corporation.

   At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Retail Division had 56 and 7 locations,
   respectively.

   Revenue Recognition

   Revenues are recognized at the time of rental or sale of video cassettes.

   Merchandise Inventories

   Merchandise inventories consist of prerecorded video cassettes and games
   and are stated at the lower of cost or market; cost is determined on the 
   first-in, first-out method.

   Rental Inventories

   Rental inventories are stated at the lower of amortized cost or market and
   consist of prerecorded video cassettes classified as new release, catalog
   stock, and video games.  New release video cassettes are amortized over ten
   months using a declining percentage basis to a $6 salvage value.  Catalog
   stock video cassettes are amortized over 36 months on a straight-line basis
   to a $6 salvage value.  Video games are amortized over 24 months on a 
   straight-line basis to an $8 salvage value.

   Property and Equipment

   Property and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is calculated using
   the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. 
   Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line method over the
   shorter of the estimated useful lives or the respective lease terms.  The
   estimated useful lives are as follows:

         Furniture and fixtures       5 years
         Computer equipment           3 years
         Leasehold improvements       3 years




   Income Taxes

   Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
   consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
   carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective
   tax basis.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted
   tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those
   temporary differences are expected to be reversed or settled.  The effect
   on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
   period that includes the enactment date.

   2.    RENTAL INVENTORIES:

   Rental inventories at December 31, 1994 and 1993, consisted of the
   following:

   <S>                           <C>                  <C>
     New release video cassettes  $1,036,162           $211,334 
     Catalog stock video cassettes   578,796             82,054 
     Video games                     503,490             44,493 
    

                                   2,118,448            337,881 
   Less- Accumulated amortization   (708,218)           (44,887)

                                 $ 1,410,230          $ 292,994 
</TABLE>
   The Company maintained a centralized warehouse to process inventory for all
   of the Company's operations, including the Retail Division.  Included in
   the above rental inventory amounts for 1994 is $68,538 of rental inventory
   which was located in the Company's warehouse at year-end and allocated to
   the Retail Division based upon the pro rata portion of inventory
   subsequently shipped to the Retail Division.  At December 31, 1993, no
   inventory in the Company's warehouse was allocated to the Retail Division
   due to the amount being insignificant.


   3.    PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:

   Property and equipment at December 31, 1994 and 1993, consisted of the
   following:
<TABLE>

     <S>                         <C>                 <C>

         Furniture and fixtures  $   976,618           $122,861

         Leasehold improvements      240,264               -    

                                   1,836,205            211,881 
     Less- Accumulated depreciation 
     and amortization               (280,911)           (60,592)

                                 $ 1,555,294         $  151,289 
</TABLE>

   4.    INCOME TAXES:

   The Company and the Retail Division have had cumulative losses since
   inception.  Also, as discussed further in Note 9, the assets of the Retail
   Division  have been sold subsequent to year-end.  All differences between
   the financial statement carrying amount and the tax basis in these assets
   prior to the sale are eliminated at the time of the sale.  Due to the above
   and the lack of earnings history for the Retail Division, no current or
   deferred taxes have been reflected in the accompanying financial
   statements.

   5.    EQUITY:

   Equity represents the sole shareholder's net investment in the Retail
   Division.  The following table reflects the activity in the equity account
   for the two years ended December 31, 1994:
<TABLE>
         <S>                                       <C>
         Equity, December 31, 1992                 $    313,521 
         Owner investments                            1,272,469 
         Transfers to owner                            (761,688)
         Losses                                        (425,749)

         Equity, December 31, 1993                      398,553 
         Owner investments                            7,479,167 
         Transfers to owner                          (3,337,083)
         Losses                                      (2,263,174)

         Equity, December 31, 1994                 $  2,277,463 
</TABLE>
   6.    CORPORATE ALLOCATIONS:

   As discussed in Note 1, the accompanying financial statements relate to the
   Retail Division of the Company.  The Retail Division shares common
   corporate functions/activities with the rest of the Company.  The corporate
   costs primarily include general management, finance, data processing,
   logistics, and marketing.  Corporate costs have been allocated to the
   Retail Division based upon the relation of Retail Division net revenues to
   total Company net revenues.  Management believes this allocation method is
   reasonable and reflects the utilization of corporate costs.  The allocation
   percentages and allocated costs for the Retail Division were 61% and
   $977,381 in 1994 and 18% and $179,487 in 1993.  All allocated corporate
   costs are included in selling and administrative expenses in the
   accompanying financial statements.

   7.    RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

   The sole shareholder of the Company funds the operations of the Company and
   is closely involved in the daily activities of the Company.  The sole
   shareholder does not draw a salary for his services, and the accompanying
   balance sheet does not include any amounts owing to the sole shareholder.

   A substantial portion of the Retail Division's purchases and other
   transactions are made by the Company on behalf of the Retail Division.

   In August 1994, the sole shareholder of the Company sold his 100% ownership
   in a company which is one of the Retail Division's major vendors. 
   Subsequent to the sale and until August 1995, the Company had a revenue
   sharing arrangement with this vendor whereby it leased video cassettes from
   the vendor for a six-month term for an up-front payment of up to $10 per
   unit.  The video cassettes were rented by the Company to customers and the
   rental revenues generated were distributed evenly between the Company and
   the vendor.  The Company had an option to purchase the video cassettes for
   $8 per unit at the conclusion of the lease term.  Amounts due to this
   vendor and included in accounts payable at December 31, 1994 and 1993, are
   $370,710 and $19,703, respectively.

   8.    LEASES:

   The Company has several noncancelable operating leases, primarily for the
   rental of its retail video center locations.  The leases are typically for
   an initial five-year term and one five-year renewal option exercisable by
   the Company, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions.
   Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases for the
   Retail Division as of December 31, 1994, are as follows:

         Total future minimum lease payments          $7,245,000
</TABLE>
   Rent expense for the Retail Division was $793,910 and $135,290 for the
   years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993.

   9.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

   On August 31, 1995, substantially all of the Retail Division's assets were
   purchased by Rentrak Corporation.  The sole shareholder received 878,000
   shares of Rentrak Corporation's common stock as consideration for the
   acquisition.

   The accompanying unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the
   periods ended March 31, 1995 and September 30, 1995 have been prepared to
   present the effect of the purchase of all of the assets of Supercenter
   Entertainment Corporation ("SEC").  No pro forma balance sheet has been
   presented as the transaction is already reflected in the consolidated
   September 30, 1995 balance sheet.

   The pro forma statements assume that such events were effective at the
   beginning of the respective periods.

   The pro forma statements of operations have been prepared based upon the
   historical financial statements of Rentrak Corporation and SEC.  Pro forma
   adjustments are described in the accompanying notes.  The Pro Forma
   Statements of Operations may not be indicative of the results of operations
   that actually would have occurred if the transactions had been in effect as
   of the beginning of the respective periods nor do they purport to indicate
   the results of future operations of Rentrak Corporation.  The pro forma
   statements of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited and
   unaudited financial statements and notes thereto of SEC included elsewhere
   in this Form 8-K.
