     We have audited the accompanying  statement of financial condition of Mason

stockholder's  equity,  cash flows and changes in  liabilities  subordinated  to
claims of general creditors for the year then ended. 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 audit.

     We conducted  our audit 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 audit  provides a reasonable  basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31,1999

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Organization

     Mason Hill & Co., Inc. ("the  Company") is a registered  broker-dealer  and
clears its  securities  transactions  on a fully  disclosed  basis with  another
broker-dealer.

     Securities Transactions

     Securities  transactions  are recorded on  settlement  date,  generally the
third  business day  following the trade date.  There is no material  difference
between the  accounting  on a settlement  date basis as compared to a trade date
basis.

     Securities Owned

     Securities owned and securities sold, but not yet purchased are recorded at
current market value and consist substantially of equities.

     Furniture, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements

     Furniture,  equipment  and  leasehold  improvements  are  recorded at cost.
Depreciation is provided for by straight line and  accelerated  methods over the
estimated useful lives of the assets.


     Clearing Arrangements

     The Company as a non-clearing  broker does not handle any customer funds or
securities.  The responsibility for processing  customer activity rests with the

      Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

     Management  of the Company  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  estimates
that management uses.

2.    LIABILITIES SUBORDINATED TO CLAIMS OF GENERAL CREDITORS

     Liabilities  subordinated  to claims of general  creditors  have been filed
with  the  National  Association  of  Securities  Dealers,  Inc.  and are due to
officer/stockholders.  The note is due August 30,  2000 with  interest at 5% per
annum.

3.    LOANS PAYABLE - OFFICERS/STOCKHOLDERS

     Loans  payable  to   officers/stockholders   are  due  on  demand  and  are
non-interest bearing.

4.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company  occupies  office  space leased by its sole  stockholder.  Rent
expense was approximately $394,000 for the year ended March 31,1999.

5.    NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENT

     The Company is subject to the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  uniform

capital and requires  that the ratio of aggregate  indebtedness  to net capital,

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

     Mason Hill & Co., Inc. ("the  Company") is a registered  broker- dealer and
clears its  securities  transactions  on a fully  disclosed  basis with  another
broker-dealer.

Securities Transactions

     Securities  transactions  are recorded on  settlement  date,  generally the
third  business day  following the trade date.  There is no material  difference
between the  accounting  on a settlement  date basis as compared to a trade date
basis.

Securities Owned

     Securities owned and securities sold, but not yet purchased are recorded at
current market value and consist substantially of equities.

Furniture, Eguipment and Leasehold Improvements

     Furniture,  equipment  and  leasehold  improvements  are  recorded at cost.
Depreciation is provided for by straight line and  accelerated  methods over the
estimated useful lives of the assets.

Clearinq Arrangements

     The Company as a non-clearing  broker does not handle any customer funds or
securities.  The responsibility for processing  customer activity rests with the
Company's clearing firm, Bear Stearns Securities Corp.

     If a customer or a counterparty fail to perform,  the Company may sustain a
profit or a loss if the market value of the securities differs from the contract
price.  The  Company is located in New York City and its  customers  are located
throughout the United States.

l.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

     Management  of the Company  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  estimates
that management uses.

2.   LIABILITIES SUBORDINATED TO CLAIMS OF GENERAL CREDITORS

     Liabilities  subordinated  to claims of general  creditors  have been filed
with  the  National  Association  of  Securities  Dealers,  Inc.  and are due to
officer/stockholders.  The terms are as follows:  $230,000  at 5%  interest  due
August 30, 2000 and $100,000 at 7% due November 30, 1998.

3.   LOANS PAYABLE - OFFICERS/STOCKHOLDERS

     Loans  payable  to  officers/stockholders  are  due on  demand  and are now
interest bearing.

4.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company  occupies  office  space  leased by its sole  stockholder.  The
Company paid approximately $119,000 in rent expense for the year ended March 31,
1998.

5.   NET CAPITAL REOUIREMENT

     The Company is subject to the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  uniform
net capital Rule (Rule 15C3-1),  which  requires the  maintenance of minimum net
capital and requires  that the ratio of aggregate  indebtedness  to net capital,
both as defined,  shall not exceed 15 to 1 (and that  equity  capital may not be
withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed
10 to 1). At March 31, 1998, the Company had net capital of $407,052,  which was
$307,052  excess of its  required  net  capital of  $100,000.  The Company had a
percentage of aggregate  indebtedness  to net capital of 132.57% as of March 31,
1998.
