REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors of
Telecommunications Associates Group, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of TELECOMMUNICATIONS ASSOCIATES
GROUP, INC. (an Ohio corporation doing business as Emergency Response Center) as
of November 24, 1997, and the related statements of operations and cash flows
for the period from January 1, 1997, to November 24, 1997. 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, in
all material respects, the financial position of Telecommunications Associates
Group, Inc. as of November 24, 1997, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the period from January 1, 1997, to November 24, 1997, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF NOVEMBER 24, 1997
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
COMPANY BACKGROUND
Telecommunications Associates Group, Inc. (the "Company") (an Ohio Company
doing business as Emergency Response Center) owns and operates central
monitoring stations in Cleveland, Ohio and Austin, Texas to provide
security monitoring for security dealers throughout the continental United
States.
2. SUMMARY OF MAJOR ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
REVENUES
Monitoring fee revenue is recognized as earned over the related contract
period. Services may be billed in advance on a monthly, quarterly, or
annual basis and any amounts not earned are included as unearned revenue.
CASH
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash includes bank deposits
and petty cash funds of the Company.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company grants unsecured trade credit to its customers in the normal
course of business. Receivables in the accompanying balance sheet are net
of reserves of $100,000.
CONTRACT RIGHTS TO MONITOR SECURITY SYSTEMS
The Company acquires contract rights to monitor security systems from its
customers. These contract rights are recorded at the Company's purchase
price. The Company generally receives a guarantee from the seller to
replace any contracts which cancel monitoring service for a period of one
year. Accounts which are replaced are carried at the book value of the
F-5
<PAGE> 8
replaced account. The net annual attrition rate of these accounts is
approximately 10%. The contract rights are amortized on a straight-line
basis over a ten year period. Contract rights to monitor security systems
in the accompanying balance sheet are net of accumulated amortization of
approximately $185,000 as of November 24, 1997.
FURNITURE, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are
charged to operations as incurred. When property, equipment and
improvements are disposed of, the costs and accumulated depreciation or
amortization are removed from the accounts and any resulting gains or
losses are reflected in income. Depreciation and amortization is provided
for financial reporting purposes using accelerated methods over five to
seven years.
Furniture and equipment at November 24, 1997, consists of the following:
Equipment $624,500
Furniture and fixtures 69,602
--------
694,102
Accumulated depreciation 569,242
--------
$124,860
========
LEASES
The Company operates exclusively in leased facilities. Total rent expense
related to these facilities for the period ended November 24, 1997, was
approximately $104,300.
Additionally, the Company leases certain equipment used in its operations.
Total lease expense under these leases was approximately $47,800 for the
period ended November 24, 1997.
Future minimum lease payments at November 24, 1997 is as follows:
1998 $156,100
1999 114,700

F-6
<PAGE> 9
UNEARNED REVENUE
Unearned revenue consists primarily of prebilled monitoring fees to
customers. Monitoring services are billed on a monthly, quarterly,
semi-annual and annual basis.
INCOME TAXES
The Company elected to have its income taxed with that of its shareholders
for federal income tax purposes (an S Corporation election). Consequently,
there are no federal income taxes payable by the Company.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, which approximates the
carrying value, is estimated based on the current rates offered to the
Company for debt of the same remaining maturities.
3. NOTES PAYABLE
Debt at November 24, 1997, consists of the following:
