Independent Auditors' Report

To The Shareholders of
DSS Direct Connect, L.L.C.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DSS Direct Connect, L.L.C.
("the Company") as of June 14, 1999 and September 30, 1998 and the related
statements of operations, shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for the periods
from October 1, 1998 through June 14, 1999 and from inception (March 3, 1998)
through September 30, 1998. 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 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 financial position of DSS Direct Connect, L.L.C. as
of June 14, 1999 and September 30, 1998, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the periods from October 1, 1998 through June 14, 1999 and
from inception (March 3, 1998) through September 30, 1998, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 1:                     Description of Business - DSS Direct Connect, L.L.C.
Description of Business     ("DSS" or the "Company") was formed on March 3, 1998
and Summary of              for the purpose of selling and installing direct
Significant Accounting      broadcast satellite system receivers, on behalf of
Policies                    DirecTV, to end users. The Company obtained a
                            non-exclusive license to sell these systems to
                            single family users in specified markets or cities
                            in Arizona, California, Illinois, Nevada, Oregon,
                            Texas and Washington. The Company is currently
                            operating in Washington and Illinois.

                            The licensing agreement began on April 1, 1998 and
                            has an initial term of 5 years. Within three months
                            of the expiration of the agreement, either party may
                            notify the other of its desire to continue the
                            agreement beyond the initial term. Terms of any
                            extension will be negotiated by the parties at that
                            time.

                            Inventory - Inventories are valued at the lower of
                            cost or market, which approximates the first-in,
                            first-out method.

                            Furniture and Equipment- Furniture and equipment are
                            stated at cost. Depreciation is computed for
                            financial reporting purposes using the straight-line
                            method over estimated useful lives of primarily 3 to
                            7 years. Replacements and improvements that
                            significantly extend asset lives are capitalized.
                            Leasehold improvements are amortized over 5 years
                            using the straight-line method. Maintenance and
                            repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

                            Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue
                            when a receiver system is sold to the consumer. The
                            Company also receives a commission when the consumer
                            opens a new account with DirecTV, which is
                            recognized as revenue when received from DirecTV, as
                            the Company's earning process is completed at that
                            time.

                            If the consumer does not fulfill their obligations
                            under the equipment purchase and subscription
                            agreements, the Company will be charged back by
                            DirecTV and the consumer is required to reimburse
                            the Company for any amounts charged back related to
                            their account.

                            An allowance for potentially uncollectible charge
                            backs has been provided based on the Company's past
                            history.


                                                                               6

NOTE 1:
Description of Business     Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes
and Summary of              in accordance with the provisions of Statement of
Significant                 Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
Accounting Policies         for Income Taxes," ("SFAS 109"). SFAS 109 requires
(continued)                 the recognition of deferred tax assets and
                            liabilities for the expected future income tax
                            consequences of events that have been recognized in
                            a company's financial statements or tax return.
                            Under this method, deferred tax assets and
                            liabilities are determined based on the temporary
                            differences between the financial statement carrying
                            amounts and their tax basis using enacted tax rates
                            in effect in the years in which the temporary
                            differences are expected to reverse. Valuation
                            allowances are provided when management determines
                            that the realization of deferred tax assets fails to
                            meet the more likely than not standard imposed by
                            SFAS 109.

                            Advertising Expense - The cost of advertising is
                            expensed as incurred. The Company incurred $89,775
                            and $10,082 in advertising costs during the periods
                            ended June 14, 1999 and September 30, 1998,
                            respectively.

                            Concentration of Credit Risk and Financial
                            Instruments - The Company buys its product from
                            local and national companies and distributors
                            throughout the United States and internationally.
                            Net purchases from the Company's two largest vendors
                            represented 99% and 99% of net purchases during the
                            37 weeks ended June 14, 1999, and from inception
                            (March 3, 1998) to September 30, 1998, respectively.

                            Use of Estimates - The Company's financial
                            statements are prepared in conformity with generally
                            accepted accounting principles which requires
                            management to make estimates and assumptions that
                            affect the reported amounts of assets and
                            liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
                            liabilities at the date of the financial statements
                            and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
                            during the reporting period. Actual results could
                            differ from the estimates.

                            Loss per Share - SFAS 128, issued in February 1997,
                            requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings
                            per share. Basis earnings per share are computed by
                            dividing net income by the weighted average number
                            of common shares outstanding.

                            The Company has no common stock equivalents or
                            options outstanding at June 14, 1999 and September
                            30, 1998.


                                                                               7

NOTE 3:                   As of June 14, 1999 and September 30, 1998, the
Income Taxes              Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately
                          $243,000 and $240,000 primarily due to loss carry
                          forwards, which begin to expire in 2018. A 100%
                          valuation allowance has been recorded against these
                          deferred tax assets as management has yet to establish
                          that their recovery is more likely than not.

NOTE 5:                     Rent expense under operating leases was
Operating Leases            approximately $44,000 and $10,500 for the period
(continued)                 from October 1, 1998 through June 14, 1999 and from
                            inception (March 3, 1998) to September 30, 1998,
                            respectively. Significant increases in future rent
                            expense are expected due to new facilities being
                            leased to allow the Company to expand its
                            operations.

NOTE 6:                     Certain operating expenses are paid by related
Related Party               parties, which in turn are reimbursed by the
Transactions                Company. For the period ended June 14, 1999 these
                            expenses were $112,967.

                            The Company paid key employees under consulting
                            agreements during the period ended June 14, 1999 and
                            September 30, 1998. The expense of these agreements
                            totaled $205,000 and $56,250, respectively. The
                            consulting agreements terminated on June 14, 1999.

NOTE 7:                     On June 15, 1999, DSS entered into an equity
Subsequent Events           purchase agreement with Transmedia Europe, Inc. and
                            Transmedia Asia, Inc. (collectively "Transmedia
                            Group") to sell and transfer all of the outstanding
                            equity of the Company in exchange for common stock
                            of Transmedia Group. Additionally Transmedia Group
                            agreed to provide additional working capital up to
                            $3 million in the form of cash and assumption of
                            certain liabilities.

NOTE 8:                     Like other companies, DSS Direct Connect, L.L.C.
Year 2000                   could be adversely affected if the computer systems

                            process and calculate date-related information and
                            data from the period surrounding and including
                            January 1, 2000. This is commonly known as the "Year
                            2000" issue. Additionally, this issue could impact
                            non-computer systems and devices such as production
                            equipment, elevators, etc. While the Company's
                            project to assess and correct Y2K related issues
                            regarding the year 2000 has been completed, and the
                            Company has not experienced any significant Y2K
                            related events, interactions with other companies'
                            systems make it difficult to conclude there will not
                            be future effects. Consequently, at this time,
                            management cannot provide assurances that the Year
                            2000 issue will not have an impact on the Company's
                            operations.
