Item l. Description of Business.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 2003.
Unless the context requires otherwise, the term "Company," "our," or "we" refers
to CNE Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries SRC Technologies, Inc. and
CareerEngine Network, Inc.

            General

            We are a holding company whose primary operating subsidiary is SRC
            Technologies, Inc. ("SRC"). SRC has three operating subsidiaries;
            Connectivity, Inc. ("Connectivity") and Econo-Comm, Inc. ("ECI"),
            both located in Lauderhill, Florida, and U.S. Commlink, Ltd. ("US
            Commlink"), located in Livermore, California. Econo-Comm, Inc.
            conducts business under the name of Mobile Communications and is
            sometimes referred to herein as "Mobile Comm." These companies,
            which we acquired on April 23, 2003, market, manufacture, repair and
            maintain remote radio and cellular-based emergency response products
            to a variety of federal, state and local government institutions,
            and other vertical markets throughout the United States. SRC has
            intellectual property rights to certain key elements of these
            products - specifically, certain communication, data entry and
            telemetry devices. In addition, we engage in the business of
            e-recruiting through our subsidiary, CareerEngine, Inc. The
            e-recruiting business does not generate a significant part of our
            revenue.

            Our corporate executive offices and CareerEngine are located at 200
            West 57th Street, New York, NY 10019 (212-977-2200). SRC,
            Connectivity and ECI are located at 3733 NW 16th Street, Lauderhill,
            FL 33311 (954-587-1414). US Commlink is located at 6244 Preston
            Avenue, Livermore, CA 94550 (925-960-0097).

            Connectivity, US Commlink and Mobile Comm are part of the wireless
            communications industry. Our markets include Intelligent Traffic
            Systems, referred to as ITS and security related products. We also
            manufacture ancillary devices for wireless data networks. Our
            business objective is to design and distribute cost effective
            wireless products that are interoperable between people-to-people,
            people-to-machine, and machine-to-machine, and to address the remote
            communication requirements of our customers with


                                       4
<PAGE>

            solutions that deliver safety, convenience and security benefits. We
            compete by offering niche products that utilize either existing
            infrastructures or low cost wireless systems that can be rapidly
            deployed.

            The wireless business we compete in consists of three distinct
            categories:

                  o     product development, engineering, and manufacturing;

                  o     sales, distribution and installation of wireless
                        products; and

                  o     service and maintenance of our own and other
                        manufacturers' wireless products.

            All three operating subsidiaries are engaged in product development.
            Both Mobile Comm and US Commlink design, engineer and distribute
            wireless products that are either radio or cellular based. All three
            companies market their own products and services, but Connectivity
            has the primary responsibility for these activities. Mobile Comm and
            US Commlink install their products. Mobile Comm is also an
            authorized dealer of Motorola products.

            We provide a 12-month warranty that our hardware performs within
            certain specifications, and we warrant the performance of our
            software. To date, we have not received notice of any warranty
            claims. We have accrued $40,620 for future warranty claims for the
            year ended December 31, 2003.

            Mobile Comm has a number of customers with which it has long term
            service and maintenance contracts for wireless communications
            products. Many of these customers are state, county and municipal
            agencies. US Commlink also provides service and maintenance
            contracts to its customers.

            Connectivity, Inc.

            Connectivity has marketed wireless call box products to a variety of
            federal, state and local government agencies and departments, and
            numerous other vertical markets throughout the United States. Some
            of our customers include:

                  o     State Departments of Transportation (DOT's);

                  o     college campuses;


                                       5
<PAGE>

                  o     private and public golf courses;

                  o     hospitals;

                  o     air/sea ports;

                  o     parking facilities; and

                  o     amusement/county parks.

            The retail prices for these products range from $2,500.00 to over
            $5,000.00, depending upon the features that are included.
            Connectivity's profit margins vary, depending on the type of
            distribution channel through which its products are sold.

            Prior to June 25, 2003, Connectivity marketed its call boxes
            directly to end users and through a network of approximately 25
            independent Authorized Agents, referred to as AA's, throughout the
            United States pursuant to oral agreements that could be terminated
            by either party at will. The AAs purchased the products from
            Connectivity at a discount equal to between 10% and 25% of retail
            prices. The AA's were not required to purchase any minimum number of
            units, but were not permitted to sell competing products. For the
            fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, Connectivity sold approximately
            75% of its products directly to end users and approximately 25% to
            AA for resale. No one distributor accounted for more than 5% of its
            sales during this period.

            On June 25, 2003, Connectivity entered into a written distribution
            agreement with Motorola, Inc. pursuant to which Motorola has begun
            marketing certain Connectivity call boxes in North America through
            its network of authorized dealers. The dealers purchase these
            products from Connectivity at a discount from retail prices. Dealers
            are not required to purchase any minimum number of units, and are
            permitted to sell competing products. All of the AAs previously used
            by us are Motorola dealers and are participating in our distribution
            agreement with Motorola. We also continue to market our products
            directly. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, Connectivity
            sold approximately 84% of its products directly to end users and
            approximately 16% to dealers for resale. No one dealer accounted for
            more than 5% of its sales during this period.

            U.S. Commlink, Ltd.

            Although US Commlink commenced operations in June 2003, its
            management has been engaged, primarily in the State


                                       6
<PAGE>

            of California, in the wireless communications and emergency call box
            systems business for the past 25 years. US Commlink designs,
            manufactures, installs and services several wireless and wired ITS
            systems for both private and municipal organizations. US Commlink is
            also a State of California certified general contractor. Its
            services include:

            o  System Design      o  Specialized Software o  Contract Management

            o  Device Integration o  Technical Support    o  General Engineering

            o  Custom Products    o  Site Installation    o  Field Construction

            US Commlink has two devices that have varying applications in the
            ITS market. The Smart Remote Controller, or SRC device, is a
            telemetry device that transmits wireless data from up to four
            peripheral devices at remote locations to a central receiving
            location. The second device is a Text Telephony, or TTY, keyboard
            for cellular based emergency call boxes. This keyboard currently
            exceeds all of the regulatory requirements under the Americans With
            Disabilities Act of 1990 as it pertains to accessibility guidelines.

            Both the SRC and TTY devices have been approved by the California
            Department of Transportation. The SRC device is the central
            component around which many other products may be developed. The
            applications for this device include, but are not limited to:

                  o     transmission of remotely gathered environmental data;

                  o     traffic speeds and volume counts;

                  o     gas, electric and seismic meter reading;

                  o     video monitoring; and

                  o     reporting adverse weather conditions through various
                        types of sensors.

            The SRC device is currently being used in several different
            California locations as a Datalink Smart Remote Controller. This
            controller detects fog and traffic speed levels and transmits this
            data wirelessly back to a central station. The central station then
            automatically compiles this data on the conditions and reports the
            information to highway variable message signs.

            Mobile Comm

            Mobile Comm, which was founded in 1984, manufactures all of our
            radio based call box products. Its primary revenue-generating
            business is maintaining and servicing radio systems for city, county
            and state government agencies. Its secondary business includes pager
            repair, two-way radio equipment repair and maintenance of highway
            callbox systems. Mobile Comm is a Motorola radio dealer, which
            allows it to sell and repair Motorola radio products.

            Mobile Comm has maintenance contracts with

                  o     the State of Florida DOT for more than 800 call boxes
                        located on the Ronald Reagan Turnpike, Bee-Line
                        Expressway and Sun-Coast Parkway;

                  o     the Broward County School Board to service the mobile
                        and portable radios for its approximately 280 schools;

                  o     the Broward County Transit Authority to service the
                        radios located on all of the Transit Authority's buses
                        in Broward County; and

                  o     a number of other public and private institutions for
                        radio maintenance.

            Revenue Distribution

            Mobile Comm's, Connectivity's and US Commlink's revenue accounted
            for approximately 37%, 29%, and 34%, respectively, of SRC's revenue
            for the year ended December 31, 2003. Maintaining radio systems,
            maintaining and servicing call boxes, and other maintenance services
            accounted for approximately 74% of Mobile Comm's revenue for the
            year ended December 31, 2003.

            Competition

            The wireless call box industry is characterized by rapid
            technological changes, frequent new product and service
            introductions, and evolving industry standards. We believe that to
            compete successfully in this market we must have the ability to:

                  o     Properly identify customer needs;

                  o     Price our products competitively;

                  o     Innovate and develop new or enhanced products;


                                       8
<PAGE>

                  o     Successfully commercialize new technologies in a timely
                        manner;

                  o     Manufacture and deliver our products on time and in
                        sufficient volumes to produce them on a commercially
                        viable basis; and

                  o     Differentiate our offerings from our competitors'
                        offerings.

            Numerous providers serve the market for  emergency call box
            systems, including

                  o     Signal Communications Corporation (www.sigcom.com),

                  o     Comarco, Inc. (NYSE symbol CMRO),

                  o     Gaitronics, a division of Hubble Corporation (NYSE
                        symbol HUBB),

                  o     Talk-A-Phone (www.talkaphone.com),

                  o     Code Blue (codeblue.com)

            and certain other manufacturers of wireless and wireline emergency
            and information telephones.

            The following information was obtained from the web sites of the
            respective companies and from other publicly disseminated
            promotional information:

                  o     Signal Communications Corporation, which provides call
                        boxes and other communications devices and has been in
                        business for more than 28 years, markets products
                        primarily in the eastern United States.

                  o     Comarco Inc, a public company operating in several
                        different business sectors, has a subsidiary, Comarco
                        Wireless Technologies, Inc., that has been manufacturing
                        solar powered, cellular call boxes since 1986.

                  o     The Hubbell Corporation, a multi-billion dollar company,
                        which owns Gaitronics (another hard-wired call box
                        company), has been manufacturing enclosures for over 45
                        years and offers a variety of shapes and sizes of
                        enclosures through a variety of distribution channels.

                  o     Blue Light Phone Company, known as Code Blue, a
                        hard-wired call box competitor, is a private company
                        founded in 1989.

            Most of our competitors are larger and have greater financial
            resources than we do, but we believe that the patents that cover our
            wireless applications products provide us with a competitive
            advantage.

            The proposals that we bid on drive our research and development
            activities. Prior to bidding on a contract, we retain a team of two
            independent engineers that work under the direction of our product
            development staff to design what we require to meet the contract bid
            specifications. Accordingly, we depend significantly on the
            creativity and efficiency of these independent engineers to compete
            for the contracts that we bid on. We cannot assure you that these
            engineers will be available for our use in the future. If they are
            not and we are unable to obtain qualified replacements, our ability
            to bid on new contracts would be adversely affected.

            Manufacturing and Suppliers

            We assemble our products at our facilities in Lauderhill, Florida
            and Livermore, California, and use contract labor for this work. Our
            manufacturing process involves the assembly of numerous individual
            component parts and materials, which consist primarily of printed
            circuit boards, specialized subassemblies, fabricated housings and
            chassis, radios, cellular telephones, and small electric circuit
            components, such as integrated circuits, semiconductors, resistors,
            and capacitors. Third parties make a majority of the components and
            sub-assemblies to our specifications, which are delivered to us for
            final testing before assembly. Although we use sole sources for
            certain of these components, all of these components are readily
            available from a number of suppliers. We do not have written
            agreements with any of our suppliers except for Motorola.

            Patents and Intellectual Property

            We hold a patent for a radio-based callbox apparatus and a patent
            for our TTY keyboard for cellular call boxes. As of the date hereof,
            we are not parties to any infringement claims with respect to our
            patented products and have not received any notices of infringement
            claims with respect to our products. We also rely on a combination
            of trade secrets and confidentiality agreements to protect the
            intellectual property embodied in the hardware and software
            components of our wireless call boxes and other products.

            Industry Practices Impacting Working Capital

            Existing industry practices that affect our working capital and
            operating cash flow include

                  o     the level of variability of customer orders relative to
                        the volume of production,

                  o     vendor lead times,

                  o     materials availability for critical parts,

                  o     inventory levels held to achieve rapid customer
                        fulfillment, and

                  o     provisions of extended payment terms.

            Currently, we sell our products under purchase orders that are
            placed with short-term delivery requirements. As a result, we
            maintain significant levels of inventory and associated production
            and technical staff in order to meet our obligations. Delays in
            planned customer orders could result in higher inventory levels and
            negatively impact our operating results.

            Our standard terms require customers to pay for our products and
            services in U.S. dollars within 30 days after receipt of invoice.
            Non-U.S. customers are required to pay in U.S. Dollars when the
            order is placed. There were no sales to non-U.S. customers for the
            fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. On projects that require
            special components, we generally receive 25-50% of our payment when
            we begin and the balance 30 days after completion.

            Employees

            As of April 1, 2004, including our six executive officers, we
            employed 27 employees; 17 by Mobile Comm (one sales, four engineers,
            nine wireless communications technicians, one administrative
            personnel, and two executive personnel), four by Connectivity (one
            sales, one administrative personnel and two executive personnel),
            two by US Commlink (one in construction management and one
            executive) and four at our executive offices in New York City (one
            administrative personnel, one communications technician and two
            executive personnel). The majority of our employees are
            professional, technical or administrative personnel who possess
            training and experience in engineering, computer science, or
            management. We have no union contracts. We believe that our employee
            relations are satisfactory.

            Our future success depends in large part on our ability to retain
            key technical, marketing, and management personnel, and to attract
            and retain qualified employees, particularly those highly skilled in
            radio frequency, design, process, and test engineering involved in
            the development of new products. Competition for such personnel is
            intense, and the loss of key employees, as well as the failure to
            recruit and train additional technical personnel in a timely manner,
            could have a material and adverse effect on our operating results.

            Our success also depends, to a significant, extent upon the
            contribution of our executive officers and other key employees. We
            have employment agreements with our executive officers, and maintain
            an employee stock option plan whereby key employees can participate
            in our success. Seven of our employees are currently covered by this
            plan.

            Our Discontinued Operations

            In 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to
            discontinue its merchant banking operations, which consisted of its
            real estate operations project with Carmike Cinemas, Inc., and its
            financial consulting operations. In addition, in 2003 the Company
            sold one of its subsidiaries.

                  Sale of Subsidiary

                  On August 15, 2003 the Company, for nominal consideration,
                  sold all the stock of one of the subsidiaries whose remaining
                  assets and liabilities were transferred to a trust for the
                  benefit of its creditors and recognized a gain amounting to
                  approximately $583,634.

                  Gain of Extinguishment of Debt

                  In 1997, the Company entered into a triple net, credit type
                  lease with Carmike Cinemas, Inc. ("Carmike"), pursuant to
                  which the Company leased to Carmike six parcels of land and
                  the improvements thereon. Concurrently, the Company issued
                  $72,750,000 principal amount of its adjustable rate tender
                  securities due November 1, 2015 (the "Bonds"). The Bonds were
                  secured by irrevocable letters of credit issued by a group of
                  banks. In connection therewith the Company entered into a


                                       12
<PAGE>

                  Reimbursement Agreement with Wachovia, as agent for the banks,
                  under which the Company was obligated to remit all rent
                  received under the lease to Wachovia to reimburse the banks
                  for the Bond payments made by draws on their letters of
                  credit.

                  On August 8, 2000, Carmike filed a petition under Chapter 11
                  of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result of that
                  filing and Carmike's subsequent failure to pay rent to date
                  under the lease, the Company failed to make required payments
                  to Wachovia under the Reimbursement Agreement. Accordingly,
                  Wachovia declared a default under the Reimbursement Agreement
                  and accelerated all amounts due by the Company thereunder.
                  Wachovia also directed the Trustee under the related Indenture
                  to redeem the Bonds. Such amounts were paid entirely through
                  draws on the related letters of credit and were not paid with
                  funds of the Company. However, as the Bonds are no longer
                  outstanding, all unamortized financing costs (amounting to
                  $804,667) relating thereto were expensed. In addition, Carmike
                  has not disaffirmed the lease and continues to occupy the six
                  theaters.

                  Interest and fees which have been accrued on the reimbursement
                  obligations through December 2001 have been recorded with a
                  corresponding amount of accrued rent receivable from Carmike.

                  On January 31, 2002 title to the six theaters was transferred
                  to the banks in payment of the non-recourse debt under the
                  Reimbursement Agreement and the Company recognized a gain of
                  $3,512,884, representing the excess of the liabilities over
                  the carrying value of the assets relating to the real estate
                  leased to Carmike. In addition, the Company received $294,755
                  in connection with the sale of its common membership interest
                  in Movieplex relating to the transfer of title of the movie
                  theaters to Wachovia.

            Regulation

            We do not believe that our business is subject to regulation as it
            is currently being conducted.

            American Stock Exchange Listing

            On December 31, 2003 we received notice from the American Stock
            Exchange Staff indicating that we had evidenced compliance with the
            requirements necessary for continued listing on the American Stock
            Exchange.

            As is the case for all listed issuers, our continued listing
            eligibility will be assessed on an ongoing basis; however, during
            the year ending December 31, 2004 it shall be subject to additional
            scrutiny (as set forth in Section 1009(h) of the AMEX Company Guide)
            as is the case for any listed Company that has regained compliance.

            Risk Factors That May Affect Future Results

            The following discussion highlights certain of the risks we
            currently face.

                  Risks Related to our Financial Condition

                        We have operated on a negative cash flow basis and our
                        business and financial condition will be materially and
                        adversely affected if we are unable to generate a
                        positive cash flow on a continuing basis.

                        From April 2003, when we acquired SRC and its affiliated
                        companies, through December 31, 2003, we operated at an
                        average monthly negative cash flow rate of approximately
                        $190,000. We estimate that, based on our current rate of
                        operations, we


                                       14
<PAGE>

                        must generate an aggregate of at least approximately
                        $604,000 per month in average gross revenues in order
                        for our cash flow to be adequate to cover our operating
                        expenses and capital expenditures. Although we believe
                        that we will generate a positive cash flow for the year
                        ending December 31, 2004, we cannot assure you that we
                        will be able to do so or to sustain a positive cash flow
                        thereafter. If we are unable to achieve the level of
                        revenues needed to attain a positive cash flow, we may
                        be required to take actions, including reducing our
                        operations, that could materially and adversely affect
                        our business.

                        We have a history of losses and we cannot assure you
                        that we will be able to operate profitably in the
                        foreseeable future, if at all.

                        We have not had income from continuing operations since
                        our fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. For our fiscal
                        years ended December 31, 2003, December 31, 2002 and
                        December 31, 2001 we incurred losses from continuing
                        operations of approximately $1,703,000, $2,115,000 and
                        $2,698,000, respectively. Our ability to become
                        profitable depends on our ability to increase our
                        revenues to an average of approximately $604,000 per
                        month while keeping our expenses at current levels. In
                        January 2004, our management took several actions,
                        including reducing executive salaries and administrative
                        expenses and the waiving certain debt service payments,
                        in an effort to address this problem and our negative
                        cash flow problem. If we do achieve profitability, we
                        cannot assure you that we will be able to sustain or
                        increase such profitability on a monthly, quarterly or
                        annual basis in the future. Our inability to achieve or
                        maintain profitability or positive cash flow could

                              o     result in disappointing financial results,

                              o     impede implementation of our growth
                                    strategy,

                              o     cause the market price of our common stock
                                    to decrease,

                              o     impede our ability to procure financing on
                                    acceptable terms or at all, and


                                       15
<PAGE>

                              o     otherwise adversely affect our business and
                                    financial condition.

                        We may be unable to continue as a going concern.

                        Our independent auditors' report on our consolidated
                        financial statements for the years ended December 31,
                        2003 and 2002 includes language reflecting that
                        substantial doubt exists, as to our ability to continue
                        as a going concern. Our management's notes to these
                        financial statements included a discussion of our
                        ability to continue as a going concern. They describe
                        the reasons why there is substantial doubt about our
                        ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial
                        statements show an accumulated deficit at December 31,
                        2003 of approximately $19,100,000 and an accumulated
                        deficit at December 31, 2002 of approximately
                        $18,000,000. Our financial statements do not include any
                        adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
                        uncertainty. As noted above, we cannot assure you that
                        we will not continue to incur net losses and negative
                        cash flow for the foreseeable future.


                        Under certain circumstances we could incur an impairment
                        loss that could adversely affect our stockholders'
                        equity.

                        We have accounted for our acquisition of SRC and its
                        affiliated companies under the purchase method, which
                        resulted in our recording approximately $7,286,000 in
                        goodwill. If, among other things, these companies, in
                        the aggregate, are unable to attain and sustain a
                        positive cash flow by approximately December 2004, one
                        year after our last valuation, we may incur an
                        impairment loss that would significantly decrease the
                        value of our goodwill adversely affecting our
                        stockholders' equity, as stated in our financial
                        statements, to the extent of this loss.

                        We may require financing if our revenues do not meet our
                        projections or our expenses are greater than we
                        anticipate, or to finance the further development of our
                        business. Our inability to obtain financing, if
                        required, would have an adverse effect on our business.

                        We may need to obtain financing if our actual costs are
                        higher than projected or our contemplated future
                        revenues fall below our current expectations, in order
                        to

                              o     finance more rapid expansion,

                              o     increase marketing and sales,

                              o     develop new or enhanced technology,

                              o     respond to competitive pressures,

                              o     establish strategic relationships, and/or

                              o     provide for working capital.

                        If we raise such financing by issuing equity or
                        convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of
                        our stockholders will be diluted. Any new debt or equity
                        securities could have rights, preferences and privileges
                        senior to rights of our common stock holders. We
                        currently have no commitments for any financing and,
                        accordingly, cannot assure you that such financing will
                        be available when and to the extent required or that, if
                        available, it will be on terms acceptable to us. If
                        adequate financing is not available on acceptable terms,
                        we may be unable to finance the activities referred to
                        above. In such event, our business may be adversely
                        affected.

                        Recently enacted and proposed changes in securities laws
                        and regulations will increase our costs.

                        The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that became law in July
                        2002 has required and will continue to require changes
                        in some of our corporate governance practices. The Act
                        also required the SEC to promulgate new rules on a
                        variety of subjects. In addition to final rules and rule
                        proposals already made by the SEC, the American Stock
                        Exchange has proposed revisions to its requirements for
                        companies such as us that have securities listed with
                        it. We expect these new


                                       17

                        rules and regulations to increase our legal and
                        financial compliance costs, and to make some activities
                        more difficult, time consuming and/or more costly. We
                        also expect that these new rules and regulations may
                        make it more costly to obtain director and officer
                        liability insurance coverage, and we may be required to
                        accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher
                        costs to obtain it. We currently do not have this
                        coverage. These new rules and regulations could also
                        make it more difficult for us to attract and retain
                        qualified members of our board of directors,
                        particularly to serve on our audit committee, and
                        qualified executive officers. In accordance with the
                        Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we have instituted a number of
                        changes relating to corporate governance practices
                        including the certification of our consolidated
                        financial statements pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of
                        the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and adoption of certain internal
                        controls. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has provisions that
                        have implementation deadlines, including those related
                        to Section 404 concerning internal control procedures.
                        Implementation of those procedures will require
                        resources and a portion of our management's time and
                        efforts.

                        Our reported financial results may be adversely affected
                        by changes in accounting principles generally accepted
                        in the United States.

                        We prepare our financial statements in conformity with
                        accounting principles generally accepted in the United
                        States. These accounting principles are subject to
                        interpretation by the Financial Accounting Standards
                        Board, the American Institute of Certified Public
                        Accountants, the SEC and various bodies formed to
                        interpret and create appropriate accounting policies. A
                        change in these policies or interpretations could have a
                        significant effect on our reported financial results,
                        and could affect the reporting of transactions completed
                        before the announcement of a change. For example, while
                        current accounting rules allow us to exclude the expense
                        of stock options from our financial statements,
                        influential business policy groups, including the
                        Financial Accounting Standards Board, have suggested
                        that the rules be changed to require these options to be
                        expensed. Technology

                        companies generally, and our company, specifically, rely
                        heavily on stock options as a major component of our
                        employee compensation packages. If we are required to
                        expense options granted to our officers and employees,
                        although our cash position would not be affected, our
                        income from continuing operations and our stockholders'
                        equity would decrease and our stock price could be
                        adversely effected. In such event, we may have to
                        decrease or eliminate option grants to our officers and
                        employees, which could negatively impact our ability to
                        attract and retain qualified employees and executive
                        personnel.

                        Our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards may
                        be limited in the future, which could adversely affect
                        our financial condition.

                        As of December 31, 2003, we had a federal income tax net
                        operating loss carryforward of approximately $36.5
                        million. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of
                        1986, as amended, (the "Code") provides that our use of
                        our net operating loss carryover and similar corporate
                        tax attributes is limited if there is an "ownership
                        change" as defined in that Section. In general, the
                        post-ownership change limitation is an amount equal to
                        our fair market value multiplied by a deemed rate of
                        return on the investment of that fair market value. The
                        selected deemed rate of return is the federal "long-term
                        tax exempt rate," reflecting the rate of return on our
                        equity value had we sold our assets and invested the
                        proceeds in long-term tax-exempt bonds. The application
                        of the limitation would severely restrict our ability to
                        use our net operating loss carryforward to offset any
                        taxable income we may earn in future years. This would
                        adversely affect our net after tax cash, which could
                        adversely affect our financial condition as well as the
                        price of our common stock.

                        In general, for purposes of the Code, an ownership
                        change occurs when 5% or more owners increase their
                        ownership percentage by more than 50% over the lowest
                        percentage owned by those owners at any time during a
                        testing period, which is generally the three years prior
                        to the


                                       19
<PAGE>

                        increase in ownership by 5% or more owners. The IRS has
                        authority to treat warrants, options, contracts to
                        acquire stock, convertible debt interests and other
                        similar interests as if they are stock and stock as if
                        it is not stock. Although we believe that we have not
                        had an ownership change on the basis of existing rules,
                        we cannot assure you that the IRS will accept our
                        position. In any event, it is possible that past and/or
                        future transactions affecting our equity could create an
                        ownership change and trigger this limitation on the use
                        of our net operating loss.

                        We have amended our by-laws to restrict transfers of our
                        common stock that could cause an ownership change but we
                        cannot assure you that this amendment will prevent an
                        ownership change. In addition, this transfer restriction
                        could adversely affect the value of our common stock.

                  Risks Related to our Business

                        Our business faces intense competition. If we fail to
                        adequately meet this competition, our business could be
                        adversely affected.

                        We encounter aggressive competition in the Intelligent
                        Traffic System ("ITS") and call box markets. We have
                        numerous competitors that range from large U.S.
                        corporations to many relatively small and highly
                        specialized firms. We compete primarily on the basis of

                              o     technology,

                              o     performance,

                              o     price,

                              o     quality,

                              o     reliability,

                              o     customer service, and

                              o     support.

                        Most of our competitors have substantially greater
                        financial, technical and marketing resources, longer
                        operating histories and greater name recognition to
                        apply to each of these factors, and in some cases have
                        built significant reputations with the customer base in
                        the markets in which we compete. If we are unable to
                        successfully compete, our business, financial

                        condition, and operating results could be materially and
                        adversely affected.

                        Our products must conform to the requirements of the
                        Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 as it pertains
                        to accessibility guidelines. If we fail to meet these
                        requirements our business could be adversely affected.

                        Our products are manufactured to comply with the ADA as
                        it relates to accessibility guidelines. In the event
                        that the law changes and we fail to adapt our products
                        to comply with these changes, our business would be
                        adversely affected.

                        Because we have fixed costs, any decline in our revenues
                        could disproportionately and adversely affect our
                        financial condition and operating results.

                        Significant portions of our costs are fixed, due in part
                        to our fixed sales, engineering and product support, and
                        manufacturing facilities. As a result, relatively small
                        declines in revenue could disproportionately affect our
                        operating results. Additionally, we have a limited
                        backlog and a limited view of when an order will be
                        received and shipped, which may affect revenue in any
                        given period.

                        Changes in product demand, among other things, could
                        adversely affect our manufacturing capacity, which would
                        adversely affect our business.

                        Because we build our inventory to meet specific contract
                        requirements, customer demand is not a factor that will
                        result in excess manufacturing capacity. However, if our
                        manufacturing capacity does not keep pace with our
                        contract awards, we will be unable to fulfill orders in
                        a timely manner, which could adversely affect our
                        operating results. In addition, any significant
                        disruption in our manufacturing operation, whether due
                        to fire, natural disaster, or otherwise, also will
                        materially and adversely affect our financial condition
                        and operating results.

                        Because we rely on independent and single source
                        suppliers, failure of a supplier to deliver to us may
                        adversely affect our business.

                        We rely on independent suppliers to provide us with the
                        components that we use to assemble our products. We do
                        not have written agreements with our suppliers except
                        for Motorola. We are an authorized dealer for Motorola
                        radios but the sale of new Motorola radios is not a
                        material portion of our business. Accordingly, because
                        we do not control these suppliers, our business could be
                        adversely affected to the extent that our suppliers fail
                        to make these components to our specifications or
                        deliver them in a timely manner.

                        In addition, we currently procure, and expect to
                        continue to procure, approximately 10% of the components
                        that we use to build our products from single source
                        manufacturers due to unique component designs, as well
                        as certain quality and performance requirements. We also
                        purchase certain customized components from single
                        sources in order to take advantage of volume pricing
                        discounts. In the future, we could experience shortages
                        of single-source components. In such event, we may have
                        to make adjustments to both product designs and
                        production schedules that could result in delays in the
                        production and delivery of our products. Such delays
                        could have materially and adversely affect our financial
                        condition and operating results.

                        If we fail to obtain a bidding partner, our business
                        could be adversely affected.

                        Approximately 65% of our gross and net revenues for our
                        fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 were generated by
                        our participation in public projects. This participation
                        involves competitive bidding, which generally requires
                        us to post a bid bond equal to 10% of the total cost of
                        the project. If we are awarded the bid, we are usually
                        required to post a 100% performance bond. We have been
                        able to obtain these bonds for the work we currently are
                        performing but, because of our weak financial condition,
                        in the future we may be required to obtain a financially
                        responsible partner to participate with us in the


                                       22
<PAGE>

                        bidding process. We cannot assure you that such a
                        partner will be available to us, if required. If and to
                        the extent that we fail to find such a partner when
                        needed, our business would be adversely affected.

                        If we fail to introduce new products on a timely basis,
                        our business could be adversely affected.

                        We sell our products in the ITS industry, which is
                        characterized by;

                              o     rapid technological changes,

                              o     frequent new product introductions, and

                              o     evolving industry standards.

                        Without the timely introduction of new products and
                        enhancements, our products will likely become
                        technologically obsolete over time, in which case our
                        operating results would suffer. The success of our new
                        product offerings will depend on several factors,
                        including our ability to;

                              o     properly identify customer needs,

                              o     price our products competitively,

                              o     innovate and develop new technologies and
                                    applications,

                              o     successfully commercialize new technologies
                                    in a timely manner,

                              o     manufacture and deliver our products in
                                    sufficient volumes on time, and

                              o     differentiate our offerings from those of
                                    our competitors.

                        Development of new products may require a substantial
                        investment before we can determine the commercial
                        viability of these innovations. We would suffer
                        competitive harm if we dedicate a significant amount of
                        our resources to the development of products that do not
                        achieve broad market acceptance.

                        Our business could be adversely affected if our products
                        have defects.

                        Our products may have defects despite any internal
                        testing that we may undertake. These defects could
                        result in product returns or


                                       23
<PAGE>

                        recalls and loss or delay in market acceptance, which
                        could materially and adversely affect our business,
                        operating results, and/or financial condition. We
                        warrant our products against certain defects and,
                        although we have not received notice of any warranty
                        claims in the past, we cannot assure you that no such
                        claims will be made in the future.

                        Because most of our products are based on constantly
                        changing technology, our business could be adversely
                        affected if we fail to adequately adapt our products to
                        these changes.

                        Most of our products are based on wireless and solar
                        powered technology. This technology is constantly being
                        updated. Accordingly, our operating results could suffer
                        if we fail to adapt our products to meet this changing
                        technology. Among the factors that make a smooth
                        transition from current products to new products
                        difficult are:

                              o     delays in product development or
                                    manufacturing,

                              o     variations in product costs, and

                              o     delays in customer purchases of existing
                                    products in anticipation of new product
                                    introductions.

                        Our operating results could also suffer due to the
                        timing of product introductions by our competitors. This
                        is especially true when a competitor introduces a new
                        product just before we do.

                        Our business could be adversely affected if we fail to
                        maintain rights to our intellectual property.

                        We generally rely upon patent and trade secret laws, and
                        agreements with our employees, customers, and partners
                        to establish and maintain our proprietary rights in our
                        technology and products. However, any of our
                        intellectual proprietary rights could be challenged,
                        invalidated, or circumvented. Our intellectual property
                        may not necessarily provide significant competitive
                        advantages. In addition, because of


                                       24
<PAGE>

                        the rapid pace of technological change in the ITS and
                        call box markets, certain of our products rely on key
                        technologies developed by third parties, and we may not
                        be able to continue to obtain licenses from these third
                        parties. Third parties also may claim that we are
                        infringing their intellectual property. Even if we do
                        not believe that our products are infringing third
                        parties' intellectual property rights, these claims can
                        be time-consuming and costly to defend and divert our
                        management's attention and resources away from our
                        business. Claims of intellectual property infringement
                        might also require us to enter into costly royalty or
                        license agreements. If we cannot or do not license the
                        infringed technology or substitute similar technology
                        from another source, our business could suffer.

                        If we fail to integrate with third parties when required
                        to do so, our business could be adversely affected.

                        In the normal course of business, we frequently engage
                        in discussions with third parties relating to integrated
                        bid participations and strategic alliances, possible
                        acquisitions, and joint ventures. Although completion of
                        any one transaction may not have a material effect on
                        our financial position, results of operations, or cash
                        flows taken as a whole, our financial results may differ
                        from the investment community's expectations in a given
                        quarter. Acquisitions and strategic alliances may
                        require us to integrate with different company cultures,
                        management teams, and business infrastructures. We may
                        also have to develop, manufacture, and market products
                        in a way that enhances the performance of the combined
                        business or product line. Depending on the size and
                        complexity of an acquisition, our successful integration
                        of an entity depends on a variety of factors, including

                              o     hiring and retaining key employees,

                              o     managing facilities and employees in
                                    separate geographic areas, and

                              o     integrating or coordinating different
                                    research and development and product
                                    manufacturing facilities.


                        25

                        All of these efforts require varying levels of
                        management resources, which may divert our attention
                        from other business operations.

                        Our business may suffer if we lose the services of our
                        executive officers, or if we cannot recruit and retain
                        additional skilled personnel.

                        We depend on the continued services and performance of
                        George W. Benoit, our Chairman and Chief Executive
                        Officer, Michael J. Gutowski, our President and Chief
                        Operating Officer, and Anthony S. Conigliaro, our Chief
                        Financial Officer, for our future success. If either Mr.
                        Benoit, Mr. Gutowski or Mr. Conigliaro becomes unable or
                        unwilling to continue in his current position, our
                        business and financial conditions could be damaged. We
                        are not the beneficiaries of any key person life
                        insurance covering them or any other executive.

                        We also depend upon our ability to attract, hire, train
                        and retain highly skilled technical, sales and
                        marketing, and support personnel, particularly with
                        expertise in wireless call box products and services.
                        Competition for qualified personnel throughout our
                        industry is intense. If we fail to attract, hire or
                        retain such personnel, our business, results of
                        operations and financial condition could be materially
                        and adversely affected. We may experience difficulty
                        providing the proper level of service to our customers
                        or incur increased costs due to rising salary and
                        benefit levels.

                        We may be unable to effectively manage growth that we
                        may experience, which could constantly strain our
                        resources and adversely affect our business.

                        We plan to expand our operations, which, if we do, will
                        impose significant demands on our management, financial,
                        technical and other resources. We must adapt to changing
                        business conditions and improve existing systems or
                        implement new systems for our financial and management
                        controls, reporting systems and procedures and expand,
                        train and manage a growing employee base in order to
                        manage any future


                                       26
<PAGE>

                        growth we may have. Furthermore, we may need to acquire
                        more advanced technologies or products or enter into
                        strategic alliances, in order to achieve growth. For us
                        to succeed, we must make our existing technology,
                        business and systems work effectively with those of any
                        strategic partners without undue expense, management
                        distraction or other disruptions to our business. We may
                        be unable to implement our business plan if we fail to
                        manage any of the above growth challenges successfully,
                        in which event our business, results of operations and
                        financial condition could be materially and adversely
                        affected.

                  Risks Related to the ownership of our Common Stock

                        Because our assets are insufficient to pay our
                        outstanding debt and preferred stock liquidation
                        preferences, if we liquidated now, owners of our common
                        stock would not receive any proceeds from the
                        liquidation.

                        As of December 31, 2003, we had outstanding indebtedness
                        of approximately $3,904,000 and outstanding preferred
                        stock with an aggregate liquidation preference of
                        $3,137,961. Accordingly, if we liquidated, based on our
                        current financial condition, no assets would be
                        available for distribution to our common stockholders
                        after distributions to creditors and holders of our
                        preferred stock.

                        Your ability to sell any common stock may be restricted,
                        because there is a limited trading market for these
                        securities.

                        Although our common stock is currently traded on the
                        American Stock Exchange, a liquid market in our stock
                        has been sporadic. Accordingly, if you purchase any
                        shares of our common stock, you may not be able to sell
                        them when you want or at the price you want, if at all.

                        Our common stock could be delisted from trading on the
                        American Stock Exchange, in which event your ability to
                        sell any shares you may own could be significantly and
                        adversely affected.

                        Although our common stock is listed for trading on the
                        American Stock Exchange (the "AMEX"), it could be
                        delisted because we may be unable to satisfy certain
                        AMEX listing guidelines, including earnings per share,
                        market price and stockholders' equity criteria. Among
                        other things, we must (i) continuously maintain our
                        stockholders' equity in excess of $6,000,000, and (ii)
                        hold, annually, a meeting of our stockholders, to meet
                        the AMEX's continuing listing requirements. On August
                        26, 2003, we received notice from the AMEX that as of
                        June 30, 2003, we were below certain of its continuing
                        listing standards. At that date, our stockholders'
                        equity was $2,069,635; however, at September 30, 2003,
                        our stockholders' equity was $6,900,790. On January 2,
                        2004 we received a notice dated December 31, 2003 from
                        the AMEX Staff indicating that we evidenced compliance
                        with the requirements necessary for continued listing on
                        the AMEX. As is the case for all listed issuers, our
                        continued listing eligibility will be assessed on an
                        ongoing basis; however, during the year ending December
                        31, 2004 we shall be subject to additional scrutiny (as
                        set forth in Section 1009(h) of the AMEX Company Guide)
                        as is the case for any listed company that has regained
                        compliance. If we fail to comply with the continuing
                        listing standards, our securities would most likely be
                        delisted from the AMEX. We cannot assure you that we
                        will continue to be in such compliance.

                        If we do not retain the AMEX listing and our common
                        stock is thereafter quoted only on the OTC Electronic
                        Bulletin Board, a significantly less liquid market than
                        the AMEX, a stockholder will find it even more difficult
                        to dispose of, or to obtain accurate price quotations of
                        our common stock. In addition, depending on several
                        factors including, among others, the future market price
                        of our common stock, these securities could become
                        subject to the so-called "penny stock" rules that impose
                        additional sales practice and market making requirements
                        on broker-dealers who sell and/or make a market in such
                        securities. These factors could affect the ability or
                        willingness of broker-dealers to sell and/or make a
                        market in our common stock and the ability of purchasers
                        of our common stock to sell their


                                       28
<PAGE>

                        shares in the secondary market. A delisting could also
                        negatively affect our ability to raise capital in the
                        future.

                        The market price of our common stock may be volatile,
                        which could adversely affect the value of any common
                        stock that you may own.

                        The market price of our common stock may fluctuate
                        significantly in response to the following factors:

                              o     variations in our quarterly operating
                                    results;

                              o     our announcements of significant contracts,
                                    milestones or acquisitions;

                              o     our relationships with other companies;

                              o     our ability to obtain capital commitments;

                              o     additions or departures of our key
                                    personnel;

                              o     sales of our common stock by others or
                                    termination of stock transfer restrictions;

                              o     changes in estimates of our financial
                                    condition by securities analysts; and

                              o     fluctuations in stock market price and
                                    volume.

                        The last three factors are beyond our control.

                        In the past, following periods of volatility in the
                        market price of a company's securities, securities class
                        action litigation often has been instituted against that
                        company. Such litigation is expensive and diverts
                        management's attention and resources. Any one of the
                        factors noted above could have an adverse affect on the
                        value of our common stock.

                        Anti-takeover provisions of the Delaware General
                        Corporation Law and in our Certificate of Incorporation
                        could discourage a merger or other type of corporate
                        reorganization or a change in control, even if it could
                        be favorable to the interests of our stockholders.

                        The Delaware General Corporation Law and our Certificate
                        of Incorporation contain provisions that may enable our
                        management to retain control and resist a takeover of
                        our Company. These


                                       29
<PAGE>

                        provisions generally prevent us from engaging in a broad
                        range of business combinations with an owner of 15%, 20%
                        in the case of our Certificate of Incorporation, or more
                        of our outstanding voting stock for a period of three
                        years from the date that this person acquires his stock.
                        Our Certificate of Incorporation and our By Laws also
                        require the affirmative vote of at least 60% or our
                        voting stockholders to effect certain actions,
                        including, under certain circumstances, the removal of
                        directors, and provide for the election of different
                        classes of directors with the term of each class ending
                        at different times. In addition, our By-Laws require the
                        affirmative vote of at least 60% or our directors to
                        change the composition of our Executive Committee.
                        Accordingly, these provisions could discourage or make
                        more difficult a change in control or a merger or other
                        type of corporate reorganization even if it could be
                        favorable to the interests of our stockholders.

                        Our officers and directors exercise significant control
                        over our affairs, which could result in their taking
                        actions that other stockholders do not approve of.

                        Our executive officers and directors, and persons or
                        entities affiliated with them, currently control about
                        18.9% of our outstanding common stock. These
                        stockholders, if they act together, may be able to
                        exercise substantial influence over all matters
                        requiring approval by our stockholders, including the
                        election of directors and approval of significant
                        corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership
                        may also delay or prevent a change in control of our
                        Company and might affect the market price of our common
                        stock.

                        We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common
                        stock in the foreseeable future.

                        We have never paid any cash dividends on our common
                        stock and currently intend to retain all future
                        earnings, if any, to invest in our business.
                        Accordingly, we do not anticipate paying cash dividends
                        on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

                        If our Board issues common stock, which it can do
                        without stockholder approval, a purchaser of our common
                        stock could experience substantial dilution.

                        Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to
                        40 million shares of common stock and to issue options
                        and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock
                        without stockholder approval. In the future, we could
                        issue additional shares of our common stock at values
                        substantially below the current market price for our
                        common stock, which could substantially dilute the
                        equity ownership of holders of our common stock. In
                        addition, our Board could issue large blocks of our
                        common stock to prevent unwanted tender offers or
                        hostile takeovers without any stockholder approval.

                        Our ability to issue preferred stock may adversely
                        affect the rights of common stockholders and be used as
                        an anti-takeover device.

                        Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our Board of
                        Directors to issue up to 25 million shares of preferred
                        stock without approval from our stockholders.
                        Accordingly, all of our common stock will be junior to
                        any preferred stock issued by us, and our Board has the
                        right, without the approval of common stockholders, to
                        fix the relative rights and preferences of such
                        preferred stock. This could affect the rights of common
                        stockholders regarding, among other things, voting,
                        dividends and liquidation. We could also use an issuance
                        of preferred stock to deter or delay a change in control
                        that may be opposed by our management, even if the
                        transaction might be favorable to the common
                        stockholders.

                        Any exercise of outstanding options and warrants will
                        dilute then-existing stockholders' percentage of
                        ownership of our common stock.

                        We have a significant number of outstanding options and
                        warrants. Shares issuable upon the exercise of these
                        options and warrants, at prices ranging currently from
                        $0.15 to $6.00 per share, represent approximately 69.8%
                        of our total


                                       31
<PAGE>

                        outstanding stock on a fully-diluted basis. The exercise
                        of all of the outstanding options and warrants would
                        dilute the then-existing stockholders' percentage
                        ownership of our common stock. Any sales resulting from
                        the exercise of options and warrants in the public
                        market, such as sales by the selling stockholders
                        pursuant to this prospectus, could adversely affect
                        prevailing market prices for our common stock. Moreover,
                        our ability to obtain additional equity capital could be
                        adversely affected since the holders of outstanding
                        options and warrants may exercise them at a time when we
                        would also wish to enter the market to obtain capital on
                        terms more favorable than those provided by such options
                        and warrants. We lack control over the timing of any
                        exercise or the number of shares issued or sold if
                        exercises occur.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

            We are a party to various vendor related litigations. Based on the
            opinion of legal counsel, we have accrued a liability of
            approximately $100,000 and, accordingly, this liability has been
            reflected in accounts payable and accrued expenses within the
            consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2003.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security-Holders.

            On December 18, 2003, we held an annual meeting of our stockholders
            at which our stockholders elected seven directors, ratified the
            selection of our auditors for 2003 and approved and adopted our 2003
            Stock Incentive Plan, as amended.

            Our stockholders elected Charles W. Currie and Michael J. Gutowski
            for three year terms, Joseph G. Anastasi and Larry M. Reid for two
            year terms and George W. Benoit, David W. Dube and Carol L. Gutowski

            Dividends:

            We have not previously paid cash dividends on our common stock. Our
            Board of Directors does not currently intend to pay cash dividends
            on the outstanding shares of our common stock in the foreseeable
            future. The payments of future dividends and the amount thereof will
            depend upon our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements
            and such other factors as our Board of Directors may consider
            relevant.

            Private Issuance of Company Securities:

            General

            We are a holding company whose primary operating subsidiary is SRC.
            SRC, also a holding company, is the parent of Connectivity, ECI, and
            US Commlink. These companies, which we acquired on April 23, 2003,
            market, manufacture, repair and maintain remote radio and
            cellular-based emergency response products to a variety of federal,
            state and local government agencies as well as other vertical
            markets located throughout the United


                                       35
<PAGE>

            States. In addition, we engage in the business of e-recruiting
            through our subsidiary, CareerEngine, Inc. The e-recruiting business
            does not generate a significant part of our revenue, and is not
            significant to the operations of the Company.

            Acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of SRC and ECI

            On April 23, 2003 we issued (i) 899,971 shares of our common stock,
            (ii) 1,697,966 shares of our non-voting Series A Preferred Stock and
            an equal number of ten year Class A Warrants, (iii) 4,400 shares of
            our Series B Preferred Stock, and (iv) 9,735,875 shares of our
            non-voting Series C Preferred Stock and a like number of ten year
            Class C Warrants, for 100% ownership of SRC and ECI. In addition,
            ECI's sellers retained certain of ECI's trade receivables
            aggregating approximately $100,000. We also acquired a patent
            related to the operation of ECI's business in exchange for notes
            aggregating $2,000,000 bearing 8% interest. The consolidated
            financial statements include the operating results of SRC and ECI
            from the date of acquisition. The details of such transactions are
            set forth below.

                  SRC

            On April 23, 2003, we issued to Mr. and Mrs. Gutowski, the former
            principal common stockholders of SRC, an aggregate of 4,867,937
            shares of its non-voting Series C Preferred Stock and a like number
            of ten year Class C Warrants, each to purchase one share of its
            Common Stock at $1.00 per share. The Class C Warrants are not
            exercisable or detachable from the Series C Preferred Stock prior to
            66 months after their issuance.

            We issued to the other former common stockholders of SRC, including
            Mr. Reid, an aggregate of 899,976 shares of its Common Stock,
            1,697,966 shares of its non-voting Series A Preferred Stock and a
            like number of ten year non-detachable Class A Warrants, each to
            purchase one share of its Common Stock at $1.00 per share. The Class
            A Warrants are not exercisable or detachable from the Series A
            Preferred Stock prior to 66 months after their issuance.

            We issued an aggregate of 4,400 shares of our Series B Preferred
            Stock to the former holders of the SRC Series B Preferred Stock.

                  ECI

            On April 23, 2003, the Company issued to Gary Eichsteadt and Thomas
            Sullivan, the former stockholders of ECI, an aggregate of 4,867,938
            shares of its Series C Preferred Stock and a like number of Class C
            Warrants. In addition, Messrs. Eichsteadt and Sullivan retained
            certain of ECI's trade receivables aggregating approximately
            $100,000. We also acquired a patent ("ECI Patent) related to the
            operation of ECI's business from Mr. Eichsteadt for notes in the
            aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000, bearing interest at the
            annual rate of 8%, payable quarterly, and due on October 31, 2008.
            The notes are currently secured by a certain Pledge Agreement - see
            Note H. Mr. Sullivan remained an executive officer ECI. On July 31,
            2003, we transferred all the stock of ECI to SRC and ECI became a
            wholly-owned subsidiary of SRC. In addition, we transferred our
            title to the ECI Patent to SRC.

            On May 19, 2003, Mr. Eichsteadt assigned $1,500,000 of the
            aforementioned 8% notes equally to Mr. Sullivan, Mr. Gutowski and
            Mrs. Gutowski. On August 31, 2003, Mr. and Mrs. Gutowski converted
            their notes aggregating $1,000,000 into 1,000,000 shares of the
            Company's Series AA Preferred Stock.

            The Series AA Preferred Stock has an 8% cumulative dividend, payable
            in common stock or cash, and a liquidating preference over all other
            CNE equity of $1,000,000. The Series A Preferred Stock has a
            liquidating preference over all other CNE equity except the Series
            AA of $1,697,961. The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidating
            preference over all other CNE equity except the Series AA and A
            Preferred Stock of $440,000. The Series C Preferred Stock has no
            liquidating preference.

            The total consideration, including acquisition costs, was allocated
            based on the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired on the
            acquisition date.

            There were no relationships between us or any of our affiliates and
            any of the sellers of the assets we acquired prior to the
            acquisition transactions.

            Catastrophe of September 11, 2001

            Our headquarters were located at Suite 2112 of Two World Trade
            Center in New York City. The catastrophe of September 11, 2001
            involved no injury to any of our employees. However, with the
            complete destruction of the building, all of our leasehold
            improvements, furniture and fixtures, and office and computer
            equipment located at this site were also destroyed. Since the attack
            through the date of the acquisitions and financing set forth above,
            our management had been preoccupied with the relocation and
            reestablishment of our businesses, assessing and processing of
            insurance claims with the assistance of a risk manager with our
            insurers, and seeking sources of financing. In 2002, the Company
            received insurance proceeds in amounts that have exceeded the net
            carrying value of the destroyed assets and, accordingly, recorded a
            $152,934 gain on assets destroyed due to this catastrophe. We also
            had insurance coverage for other than assets destroyed. In 2003, we
            received all outstanding insurance claims relating to the
            catastrophe.

            In addition, we applied for governmental assistance grants related
            to the catastrophe. In April and September 2002, and August 2003, we
            received grants aggregating $300,000. The grants have a restriction
            that could require their repayment, specifically if we were to
            relocate a substantial portion our operations outside of New York
            City before May 1, 2005. Until such time as this restriction no
            longer applies, we will classify the grants will as a liability of
            the Company. We will remove the liability and record grant income on
            our financial statements when these restrictions lapse or are
            satisfied or, alternatively, repay such grants if the above
            condition is not satisfied.

            Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

            The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S.
            generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make
            estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
            and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
            reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting
            period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates,


                                       38
<PAGE>

            including those related to our allowance for doubtful accounts,
            inventory reserves, goodwill and purchased intangible asset
            valuations, and asset impairments. We base our estimates on
            historical experience and on various other assumptions that we
            believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of
            which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values
            of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these
            estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

            We believe the following critical accounting policies, among others,
            affect the significant judgments and estimates we use in the
            preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

                  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, Revenue Recognition

            We evaluate the collectibility of our accounts receivable based on a
            combination of factors. In circumstances where we are aware of a
            specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations to
            us, we record a specific allowance to reduce the net receivable to
            the amount we reasonably believe will be collected. For all other
            customers, we record allowances for doubtful accounts based on the
            length of time the receivables are past due, the prevailing business
            environment and our historical experience. If the financial
            condition of our customers were to deteriorate or if economic
            conditions were to worsen, additional allowances may be required in
            the future.

            We recognize product revenue when persuasive evidence of an
            arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed, the service is
            performed or products are shipped to customers, which is when title
            and risk of loss transfers to the customers, and collectibility is
            reasonably assured.

            At December 31, 2003, our allowance for doubtful accounts was
            $51,500 or 19.8% of gross receivables, compared to $51,500 or 59.4%
            of grow receivables as of December 31, 2002. The decrease in the
            reserve as a percentage of gross receivable from prior year is the
            result of a significant increase in accounts receivable and a
            significant decrease in the need for an allowance for doubtful
            accounts.

                  Inventory Valuation

            At each balance sheet date, we evaluate our ending inventories for
            excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation includes
            analyses of sales levels by product and projections of future
            demand. If inventories on hand are in excess of forecasted demand,
            we provide appropriate reserves for such excess inventory. If we
            have previously recorded the value of such inventory determined to
            be in excess of projected demand, or if we determine that inventory
            is obsolete, we write off these inventories in the period the
            determination is made. Remaining inventory balances are adjusted to
            approximate the lower of our cost or market value. If future demand
            or market conditions are less favorable than our projects,
            additional inventory write-downs may be required, and would be
            reflected in cost of revenues in the period the revision is made.

                  Valuation of Goodwill. Purchased Intangible Assets and
                  Long-Lived Assets

            We perform goodwill impairment tests on an annual basis and on an
            interim basis if an event or circumstance indicates that it is more
            likely than not that impairment has occurred. We assess the
            impairment of other amortizable intangible assets and long-lived
            assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
            carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider important
            that could trigger an impairment review include significant
            underperformance to historical or projected operating results,
            substantial changes in our business strategy and significant
            negative industry or economic trends. If such indicators are
            present, we evaluate the fair value of the goodwill. For other
            intangible assets and long-lived assets we determine whether the sum
            of the estimated undiscounted cash flows attributable to the assets
            in question is less than their caring value. If less, we recognize
            an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the
            assets over their respective fair values. Fair value of goodwill is
            determined by using a valuation model based on market
            capitalization. Fair value of other intangible assets and long-lived
            assets is determined by future cash flows, appraisals or other
            methods. If the long-lived asset determined to be impaired is to be
            held and used, we recognize an impairment charge to the extent the
            anticipated net cash flows attributable to the asset are less than
            the asset's carrying value. The fair value of the long-lived asset
            then becomes



                                       40
<PAGE>

            the asset's new carrying value, which we depreciate over the
            remaining estimated useful life of the asset. See Note D
            "Intellectual Property Right and Goodwill."

            Recent Accounting Pronouncements

            In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN
            45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
            Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees and Indebtedness of
            Others." FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by the
            guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its
            obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also
            requires that a guarantor recognize, at the inception of a
            guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation
            undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and
            measurement provisions of this interpretation are applicable on a
            prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December
            31, 2002; while the provisions of the disclosure requirements are
            effective for financial statements of interim or annual reports
            ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of this statement had
            no material impact on our financial position or results of
            operations.

            In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
            Standards No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -
            Transition and Disclosure" ("SFAS 148"). SFAS 148 amends Statement
            No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), to
            provide alternative methods for voluntary transition to SFAS 123's
            fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee
            compensation ("the fair value method"). SFAS 148 also requires
            disclosure of the effects of an entity's accounting policy with
            respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income
            (loss) and earnings (loss) per share in annual and interim financial
            statements. We have determined not to adopt the fair value method
            for stock based compensation.

            In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN
            46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." In general, a
            variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or
            any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a)
            does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity
            investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the
            entity to support its activities. FIN 46 requires certain variable
            interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary


                                       41
<PAGE>

            of the entity if the investors do not have the characteristics of a
            controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at
            risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional
            subordinated financial support from other parties. The consolidation
            requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest
            entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation
            requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or
            interim period beginning after December 15, 2003. Certain of the
            disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued
            after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest
            entity was established. We do not expect this statement to have a
            material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

            In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement
            133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No.
            149"). SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and
            reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
            instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
            derivatives) and for hedging activities under FASB Statement No.
            133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.
            This Statement requires that contracts with comparable
            characteristics be accounted for consistently as either derivatives
            or hybrid instruments. This Statement is effective for contracts
            entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging
            relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of this
            statement has had no effect on our financial statements.

            In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
            Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and
            Equity." SFAS No. 150 changes the accounting for certain financial
            instruments that under previous guidance issuers could account for
            as equity. It requires that those instruments be classified as
            liabilities in balance sheets. The guidance in SFAS No. 150 is
            generally effective for all financial instruments entered into or
            modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective on July 1,
            2003. The adoption of this statement has had no effect on our
            financial statements.

            December 31, 2003 from $237,800 for the year ended December 31, 2002
            as the operations of our subsidiary, CareerEngine, Inc. have
            continued to decline due to our relatively small size in the
            e-recruiting industry.

            31, 2002 due to the acquired operations and related increase in
            personnel, in April 2003, of SRC and its subsidiaries.

            General and administrative expenses increased to $1,247,096 for the
            year ended December 31, 2003 from $390,880 for the year ended
            December 31, 2002 due to the


                                       43
<PAGE>

            costs associated with the acquisition and related operations of SRC
            and its subsidiaries, and the professional fees associated with the
            merger and private financing, primarily completed in April 2003.

            Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased to $159,405 for the
            year ended December 31, 2003 from $213,889 for the year ended
            December 31, 2002, due to the net effect of the depreciation and
            amortization expense relating to the relatively long-life fixed
            assets and intellectual property rights associated with the
            acquisition of SRC and its subsidiaries in 2003, and the
            depreciation of certain short-life assets of the Company becoming
            fully depreciated in 2002.

            Other Items

            Amortization of debt discount decreased to $467,000 for the year
            ended December 31, 2003 from $691,748 for the year ended December
            31, 2002 due to the net effect of the cessation of amortization and
            complete write-off of the debt discount related to certain
            debentures payable that became immediately callable by the debenture
            holders and the commencement of amortization of the debt discount

            Interest expense increased to $423,625 for the year ended December
            31, 2003 from $348,918 for the year ended December 31, 2002 due
            primarily to the net effect of the issuance of the Company's 10% and
            8% subordinated notes in April 2003 and the cessation of interest
            expense on a subsidiary's 12% Debentures Payable and Tax Assessment
            Payable in July and August 2003.

            Tax Settlement adjustment of $895,622 relates to the accepted and
            paid Offer in Compromise with the Internal Revenue Service ($50,000)
            pertaining to a previous year estimated $945,000 tax liability of a
            subsidiary of the Company.

            Amortization of deferred financing costs decreased to nil for the
            year ended December 31, 2003 from $322,598 for the year ended
            December 31, 2002 due to the complete write-off of the remaining
            deferred financing costs relating to a subsidiary's 12% Debentures
            Payable.

            Gain on fixed assets destroyed in catastrophe decreased to nil for
            the year ended December 31, 2003 from $152,934 for the year ended
            December 31, 2002 due to the


                                       44
<PAGE>

            destruction of the World Trade Center where we were headquartered in

            Reversal of Directors fees decreased to nil for the year ended
            December 31, 2003 from $55,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002.
            This amount relates to the forgiveness of fees earned by the outside
            Directors and their agreement to forego these fees until further
            notice. We began compensating our outside Directors, commencing
            October 1, 2003, at a monthly rate of $1,000 per Director and
            another $1,000 per Director if a Director is also a member of the
            Executive Committee of our Board of Directors.

            Operating Loss

            On a pre-tax basis, we had a loss from continuing operations of
            $1,688,990 for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared with a loss
            from continuing operations of $2,110,196 for the year ended December
            31, 2002.

            Our loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31,
            2003 was $1,702,955 compared with a loss from continuing operations
            of $2,115,446 for the year ended December 31, 2002. For the year
            ended December 31, 2003, loss per common share from continuing
            operations, basic and diluted, was $.24 per share. For the year
            ended December 31, 2002, loss per common share from continuing
            operations, basic and diluted, was $.37 per share.

            Our income from discontinued operations for the year ended December
            31, 2003 was $583,634 compared with income from discontinued
            operations of $3,712,884 for the year ended December 31, 2002 due to
            a gain on the sale of one of our subsidiaries in 2003 and,
            primarily, a gain on the extinguishment of debt in 2002. For the
            year ended December 31, 2003, basic income per common share from
            discontinued operations was $.08 per share. For the year ended
            December 31, 2002, basic income per common share from discontinued
            operations was $.66 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2003,
            diluted income per common share from discontinued operations was
            $.06 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2002, diluted income
            per common share from discontinued operations was $.66 per share.

            Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $1,119,321
            compared with net income of $1,597,438 for the year ended December
            31, 2002. For the year ended

<PAGE>

            December 31, 2003, basic net loss per common share was $.16 per
            share. For the year ended December 31, 2002, basic net income per
            common share from was $.29 per share. For the year ended December
            31, 2003, diluted net loss per common share was $.18 per share. For
            the year ended December 31, 2002, diluted net income per common
            share was $.29 per share.

      B.    Liquidity and Capital Resources


            As reflected in the 2003 and 2002 financial statements, the Company
            has incurred substantial losses from continuing operations,
            sustained substantial cash outflows from operating activities, has a
            working capital deficit and at December 31, 2002 had a capital
            deficiency. The above factors raise substantial doubt about the
            Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's
            continued existence depends on its ability to obtain additional
            equity and/or debt financing to fund its operations and ultimately
            to achieve profitable operations. The Company is attempting to raise
            additional financing and has initiated a cost reduction strategy. At
            December 31, 2003 management believes that the working capital
            deficit, losses and negative cash flow will ultimately be improved
            by (i) the acquisitions of SRC and ECI (ii) cost reduction
            strategies initiated in January 2004 and (iii) additional equity and
            debt financing activities in addition to those set forth in the
            financial statements. In addition, the Company had been notified
            that, subject to the procedural requirements of the American Stock
            Exchange (the "Exchange"), its stock could be delisted. However, on
            January 2, 2004 the Company received a notice dated December 31,
            2003 from the Exchange indicating that the Company had demonstrated
            compliance with the requirement for continued listing on the
            Exchange. There is no assurance that the Company can obtain
            additional financing or achieve profitable operations or generate
            possible cash flow. The 2003 and 2002 financial statements do not
            include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or
            classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and
            classification of liabilities that might be necessary as a result of
            this going concern uncertainty.



            Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

            At December 31, 2003, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

            Operating Activities

            We utilized $1,361,966 of cash in operating activities during the
            year ended December 31, 2003. We had a net loss from continuing
            operations of $1,702,955 during this period which included an
            aggregate of ($70,467) of non-cash items, including depreciation and
            amortization, amortization of debt discount, allowance for doubtful
            accounts and common stock issued in lieu of cash for professional
            fees offset by tax settlement adjustment on a previous year's
            estimated tax liability. In addition to the net impact of non-cash
            items, our operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2003
            also reflected an increase in accounts and insurance receivable,
            inventory, accrued expenses and other liabilities, and deferred
            grant revenue. These were offset in part by decreases other current
            and non-current assets.

            We utilized $217,582 of cash in operating activities during the year
            ended December 31, 2002. We had a net loss from continuing
            operations of $2,115,446 during this period which included an
            aggregate of $1,059,553 of non-cash items, including depreciation
            and amortization, amortization of debt discount, allowance for
            doubtful accounts and common stock issued in lieu of cash for
            professional fees partially offset by a reversal of fees due
            Directors and a gain on fixed assets destroyed in the 9/11
            catastrophe. In addition to the net impact of non-cash items, our
            operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2002 also
            reflected an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities and
            deferred grant revenue. These were offset in part by decreases in
            accounts and insurance receivable, and other current and non-current
            assets.

<PAGE>

            On January 21, 2004, we took several initiatives to address our
            operating cash deficiency, which included, but were not limited to,
            the reduction and/or elimination of certain executive salaries,
            waiving of certain interest payments due officers and/or directors,
            waiving of certain accounts receivable due an officer and employee,
            and the reduction of certain administrative costs. In addition, we
            raised gross proceeds of $700,000 in February 2004 from the sale of
            our common stock (see "Financing Activities" below), and
            restructured certain short-term credit arrangements into a $300,000
            Note payable due in February 2005 (see Note R to our Consolidated
            Financial Statements).

            Financing Activities

            On April 23, 2003 we issued $1,000,000 in principal amount of our
            10% Subordinated Notes due April 30, 2004 to investors for a 15%
            non-dilutive interest in the Company in the form of 4,165,800
            cashless Class B Warrants, each to purchase one share of Common
            Stock at $0.50 per share. We had the option to extend the maturity
            date of the notes to April 30, 2005 in consideration for issuing the
            noteholders an additional 4% non-dilutive interest in the Company.
            The notes also require prepayment in an amount equal to 100% of any
            net financing proceeds obtained by us after the issuance of the
            notes. The noteholders waived this provision to the extent of
            $2,000,000 through April 15, 2004, of which $1,200,000 has been
            raised. The investors included two of our officers. Interest is
            payable, in arrears, calendar quarterly. We valued the Warrants,
            utilizing the Black-Scholes Pricing Model, at $699,000, which is
            being accounted for as debt discount and is being amortized ratably
            over the initial one-year term of the Notes.

            On March 12, 2004, we notified the Class B Warrant holders that, to
            satisfy the 15% non-dilutive provisions of their Warrants, these
            Warrants were now exercisable for an aggregate of 5,245,200 shares
            of our common stock at approximately $0.40 per share. On this date,
            we also exercised our option to extend the maturity date of the
            notes to April 30, 2005 and satisfied the requirement for the
            additional 4% non-dilutive interest in the Company by issuing to the
            noteholders Class B Warrants to purchase an additional 1,708,900
            shares of our common stock at $0.50 per share. The non-dilutive
            provisions

            of the Warrants terminate when all of the notes have been paid in
            full.

            In addition, on September 17, 2003, we sold 1,250,000 shares of our
            common stock at $0.40 per share to an existing noteholder and
            stockholder of the Company.

            On February 10, 2004, the Company sold 1,750,000 shares of our
            common stock at $0.40 per share in consideration of $700,000 cash.

            We are using the funds obtained from these financings to pay certain
            ECI notes payable and for working capital. The financings were
            effected pursuant to the exemption from the registration provisions
            of the Securities Act of 1993 provided by Section 4(2) thereof.

            We did not have any material commitments for capital expenditures as
            of December 31, 2003.

      C.    Inflation

            We believe that inflation does not significantly impact our current
            operations.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of CNE Group, Inc.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of CNE Group, Inc. as of December
31, 2003 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
(capital deficit) stockholders' equity and cash flows 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. The financial statements of CareerEngine Network, Inc. as of
December 31, 2002 were audited by other auditors whose report dated April 9,
2003 on those statements included an explanatory paragraph that described the
substantial losses, sustained operating cash outflows and capital deficit from
continuing operations discussed in Note A of the financial statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 December 31, 2003 financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CNE Group,
Inc. as of December 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted I the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the
financial statements, the Company has experienced substantial losses and
sustained net operating cash outflows from continuing operations and anticipates
that such conditions will continue into fiscal year 2004. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note A. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

CNE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2003 and 2002

NOTE A - THE COMPANY

Business

CNE Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "CNE") is a holding company whose primary
operating subsidiary is SRC Technologies, Inc. ("SRC"). SRC, also a holding
company, is the parent of Connectivity, Inc. ("Connectivity"), Econo-Comm, Inc.
(d/b/a Mobile Communications ("ECI"), and U.S. Commlink, Ltd. ("USCL").
Connectivity, ECI and USCL market, manufacture, repair and maintain remote radio
and cellular-based emergency response products to a variety of federal, state
and local government institutions, and other vertical markets throughout the
United States. SRC has intellectual property rights to certain key elements of
these products - specifically, certain communication, data entry and telemetry
devices.

The Company also generates revenue from its subsidiary, CareerEngine, Inc.,
which is engaged in the business of e-recruiting. This segment is not
significant to the operations of the Company.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the 2003 and 2002
financial statements, the Company has incurred substantial losses from
continuing operations, sustained substantial cash outflows from operating
activities, has a working capital deficit and at December 31, 2002 had a capital
deficiency. The above factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's continued existence
depends on its ability to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing to fund
its operations and ultimately to achieve profitable operations. The Company is
attempting to raise additional financing and has initiated a cost reduction
strategy. At December 31, 2003 management believes that the working capital
deficit, losses and negative cash flow will ultimately be improved by (i) the
acquisitions of SRC and ECI (ii) cost reduction strategies initiated in January
2004 and (iii) additional equity and debt financing activities in addition to
those set forth in Note R. The Company had been notified that, subject to the
procedural requirements of the American Stock Exchange, its stock could be
delisted (see Note R). There is no assurance that the Company can obtain
additional financing or achieve profitable operations or generate possible cash
flow. The 2003 and 2002 financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or
the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary as a result
of this going concern uncertainty.



Corporate Matters

On April 17, 2003, pursuant to the terms of Section 251(g) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, CareerEngine Network, Inc. ("CareerEngine") became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to this transaction, the
Company acquired all of the assets of CareerEngine and all former stockholders
of CareerEngine became the stockholders of the Company, which is the entity that
is now publicly traded on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "CNE." As
a successor entity to CareerEngine, the Company's shares are deemed to be
registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule
12g-3 promulgated thereunder. The shares were issued without registration in
reliance upon exemptions provided in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of
1933 and Rule 145 promulgated thereunder.

In addition, the officers and directors of CareerEngine became the officers and
directors of the Company. On April 23, 2003, three directors of the Company
resigned (Kevin J. Benoit, Edward A. Martino and James J. Murtha) and their
replacements were appointed (Michael J. Gutowski, Larry M. Reid and Carol L.
Gutowski). Ms. Gutowski is the wife of Michael J. Gutowski. Messrs. Gutowski and
Reid were also appointed the President and Chief Operating Officer and the
Executive Vice President of the Company, respectively. See "Acquisition of all
of the outstanding stock of SRC and ECI" below.

In addition, on April 23, 2003, the Board of Directors and a majority of the
stockholders approved the reorganization of the Company and pursuant to
Accounting Standards ARB 43 which increased the authorized number of shares of
common stock to 40,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.00001 per share and
increased the authorized number of shares of preferred stock to 25,000,000
shares with a par value of $0.00001 per share. The preferred stock may be issued
in one or more series at the discretion of the Board of Directors.


                                                                             F-9

      Also, on April 23, 2003, the Company issued to Gary L. Eichsteadt and
      Thomas L. Sullivan, the former stockholders of ECI, an aggregate of
      4,867,938 shares of its Series C Preferred Stock and an equal number of
      Class C Warrants, each to purchase one share of its Common Stock at $1.00

      (see Note I). In addition, Messrs. Eichsteadt and Sullivan retained
      certain of ECI's trade receivables aggregating approximately $100,000. The
      Company also acquired a patent ("ECI Patent) related to the operation of
      ECI's business from Mr. Eichsteadt for notes in the aggregate principal
      amount of $2,000,000, bearing interest at the annual rate of 8%, payable

      stock of ECI to SRC and ECI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of SRC. In
      addition, the Company transferred its rights to the ECI Patent to SRC.


                                                                            F-10

            per share. The Notes bear interest at the annual rate of 10% payable
            quarterly and are due on April 30, 2004. The aggregate number of
            shares for which the Warrants may be exercised equal 15% of the
            Company's outstanding Common Stock on a fully-diluted basis. The
            Warrants are anti-dilutive until the Notes have been repaid. The due
            date of the Notes may be extended at the Company's option for an
            additional year in consideration for the issuance of 10-year
            warrants to purchase 4% of the Company's then outstanding common
            stock at $0.50 per share. These Warrants would also be anti-dilutive
            until the Notes have been repaid. In addition, the Company valued
            the warrants, utilizing the Black-Scholes Pricing Model, at
            $699,000, which is being accounted for as debt discount and is being
            amortized ratably over the one-year term of the Notes.

            On March 12, 2004, the Company notified the Class B Warrant holders
            that, to satisfy the 15% non-dilutive provisions of their Warrants,
            these Warrants were now exercisable for an aggregate of 5,245,200
            shares of the Company's common stock at approximately $0.40 per
            share.


                                                                            F-11

NOTE A - THE COMPANY (CONTINUED)

            The non-dilutive provisions of the Warrants terminate when all of
            the notes have been paid in full.

      2.    On September 17, 2003, the Company sold 1,250,000 shares of its
            Common Stock at $0.40 per share to an existing noteholder and
            stockholder of the Company.

      3.    On February 10, 2004, the Company sold 1,750,000 shares of its
            Common Stock at $0.40 per share for $700,000 cash.

      The Company is using the funds obtained from these financings primarily
      for working capital purposes as well as to pay certain ECI notes payable.
      The aforementioned financings were effected pursuant to the exemption from
      the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1993 provided by
      Section 4(2) thereof.

Catastrophe on September 11, 2001

On September 11, 2001 the Company's headquarters were located at Suite 2112 of
Two World Trade Center in New York City. The catastrophe of September 11, 2001
involved no injury to any of the Company's employees. However, with the complete
destruction of the building, all of the Company's leasehold improvements,
furniture and fixtures, and office and computer equipment located at this site
were also destroyed. Since the attack through the date of the acquisitions and
financing set forth above, the Company's management had been preoccupied with
the relocation and reestablishment of its businesses, assessing and processing
of insurance claims with the assistance of a risk manager with its insurers, and
seeking sources of financing. In 2002, the Company received insurance proceeds,
based on replacement costs, in amounts that have exceeded the net carrying value
of the destroyed assets and, accordingly, recorded a $152,934 gain on fixed
assets due to this catastrophe. The Company also had insurance coverage for
other than assets destroyed. In 2003, all outstanding insurance claims relating
to the catastrophe were settled.

In addition, the Company applied for government assistance grants related to the
catastrophe. In April and September 2002, and in August 2003, the Company
received grants aggregating $300,000. The grants have a restriction that could
require their repayment, specifically if the Company were to relocate a
substantial portion its operations outside of New York City before May 1, 2005.
Until such time as this restriction shall no longer apply, the grants will be
classified as a liability of the Company. Upon the satisfaction or lapse of the
restrictions, the Company will remove the liability and record grant income on
its financial statements or, alternatively, repay such grants if the above
condition is not satisfied.

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

[1] Principles of consolidation:

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
      the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SRC and CareerEngine
      Network, Inc. ("CareerEngine Network"). All significant intercompany
      balances and transactions have been eliminated.

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

[2] Revenue recognition:

      The Company's operations relating to manufacturing, marketing and
      servicing its remote and cellular-based emergency response products
      recognizes revenue from the sale of a product upon installation or
      delivery to the customer, depending on the terms of the underlying sales
      agreement.

      E-recruiting fees are earned on job placement advertisements and
      sponsorship advertisements on the Company's website and are recognized
      over the period during which the advertisements are exhibited. Website
      construction fees are recognized ratably over the construction period.
      Monthly hosting and maintenance fees for such sites are recognized ratably
      over the period of the underlying contract.

[3] Depreciation and amortization:

      Furniture, fixtures and equipment are being depreciated using the
      straight-line method over estimated lives of three to seven years.
      Computer equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over an
      estimated life of three to five years.

      Leasehold improvements were amortized on a straight-line basis over the
      shorter of the term of the lease or their estimated useful lives.

[4] Cash and cash equivalents:

      The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
      original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At
      December 31, 2003 there were no cash equivalents. At December 31, 2002
      cash equivalents consisted principally of an investment of approximately
      $151,000 in a money market account.

[5] Accounts and Trade Receivables:

      The Company extends credit to its customers on an unsecured basis in the
      ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated credit risk by
      performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An
      allowance for doubtful accounts has been established since management is
      of the opinion that all accounts receivable may not be fully collectible.
      The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on an estimated percentage of
      overall accounts receivable.

[6] Concentration of Credit Risk:

      Financial instruments that subject the Company to risk of loss consist
      principally of accounts receivable, deposits with financial institutions.
      The Company grants credit terms to customers in the normal course of doing
      business. Credit risk with respect to trade receivables is considered


                                                                            F-13

      minimal due to the Company's diverse customer base throughout the United
      States and strict enforcement of its credit policies. The Company
      generally does not require security deposits or other collateral to
      support credit sales. The consolidated financial statements have been
      adjusted for anticipated losses thereon. Deposits held with banks may
      exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.

      The Company's sales are made primarily to customers throughout the United
      States. Non-U.S. customers are required to pay in U.S. Dollars when the
      order is placed. There were no sales to non-U.S. customers for the fiscal
      year ended December 31, 2003. During the fiscal year ended December 31,
      2003, no single customer accounted for ten percent (10%) or more of the
      Company's sales, and credit losses were not significant.

[7] Inventory:

      Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (determined by first-in,
      first-out method) or market. At December 31, 2003 the Company's inventory
      consisted of the following:

         Raw materials                                         $158,347
         Work in progress                                         3,089

[8] Income (loss) per share:

      Basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share have been computed in
      accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic earnings per
      share ("BEPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the
      weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year.
      Diluted earnings per share ("DEPS") is computed by dividing net income
      (loss) used in determining BEPS by the weighted average number of common
      shares outstanding during the period, plus the incremental shares, if any,
      that would have been outstanding upon the assumed exercise of certain
      dilutive stock options and warrants.

      The reconciliation of shares used to calculate BEPS and DEPS (loss) per
      share consists of the following:

      equivalents for December 31, 2002, and the common stock equivalents for
      December 31, 2003 consists primarily of incentive stock options,
      convertible debentures that are convertible into Common Stock of the
      Company at an approximate conversion price of $2.00 and warrants to
      purchase common stock of the Company at prices that range from $0.50 -
      $6.00.

[9] Income taxes:

      Deferred income taxes are measured by applying enacted statutory rates in
      effect at the balance sheet date to net operating loss carryforwards and
      to the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and
      their reported amounts in the financial statements. The resulting deferred
      tax asset as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 was fully reserved since the
      likelihood of realization of future tax benefits cannot be established.

[10] Financial instruments:

      The Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
      Instruments ("SFAS 107"), defines fair value of a financial instrument as
      the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current
      transaction between willing parties. The Company's carrying value of cash,
      accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, short-term credit
      arrangements, lines of credit, notes payable, and subordinated debt
      approximates fair value because the instruments have a short-term maturity
      or because the applicable interest rates are comparable to current
      investing or borrowing rates of those instruments.

[11] Stock-based compensation:

      As permitted under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation
      (SFAS No. 123), the Company has elected to continue to follow the guidance
      of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB No.
      25), and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44,
      Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation--an
      Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 (FIN No. 44), in accounting for its
      stock-based employee compensation arrangements. Accordingly, no
      compensation cost is recognized for any of the Company's fixed stock
      options granted to employees when the exercise price of each option equals
      or exceeds the fair value of the underlying common stock as of the grant
      date for each stock option. Changes in the terms of stock option grants,
      such as extensions of the vesting period or changes in the exercise price,
      result in variable accounting in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25.
      Accordingly, compensation expense is measured in accordance with APB No.
      25 and recognized over the vesting period. If the modified grant is fully
      vested, any additional compensation costs is recognized immediately. The
      Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in
      accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123.


                                                                            F-15

      At December 31, 2003, the Company had a stock-based employee compensation
      plan - the 2003 Plan. Two of Company's subsidiaries each had separate
      stock-based employee compensation plans. These subsidiaries' plans were
      contractually terminated by the Company upon the acquisition of SRC and
      ECI on April 23, 2003. Furthermore, on March 14, 2003, all recipients of
      options granted pursuant to these plans rescinded all of their interests.

      As permitted under SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
      Compensation--Transition and Disclosure, which amended SFAS No. 123, the
      Company has elected to continue to follow the intrinsic value method in
      accounting for its stock-based employee compensation arrangements as
      defined by APB No. 25 and related interpretations including FIN No. 44.
      The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share
      if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS
      No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation for options granted under its
      plan.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2003 and 2002

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      to certain independent contractors of the Company. The Company recorded a
      charge of $135,250 in general and administrative expense, relating to the
      755,000 non-qualified stock options that were vested at December 31, 2003,
      in its Statement of Operations for year then ended. No options granted
      have been exercised.

[12] Use of estimates:

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
      principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 those estimates.

[13] Advertising costs:

      Advertising costs, which amounted to $47,806 and $10,000 for the years
      ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, are expensed as incurred.

[14] Warranty Expense:

      The Company generally warrants its products against defects for a period
      of one to three years. A provision for estimated future costs relating to
      warranties is recorded when products are shipped and revenue recognized.
      At December 31, 2003 and 2002, estimated future costs relating to
      warranties were $40,260 and $0, respectively.

[15] Impairment of long-lived assets:

      Impairment losses are recognized for long-lived assets used in operations
      when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows
      estimated to be generated by those assets are not sufficient to recover
      the assets' carrying amount. The impairment loss is measured by comparing
      the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. No write-down of
      assets for impairment losses were required during the years ended December
      31, 2003 and 2002.

[16] Intellectual Property Rights and Goodwill:

      In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations ("SFAS
      141"), and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141
      requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business
      combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, and that certain intangible
      assets acquired in a business combination be recognized as assets apart
      from goodwill. SFAS 142 requires goodwill to be tested for impairment on
      an annual basis and between annual tests in certain circumstances, and
      written down when impaired, rather than being amortized as previous
      standards required. Furthermore, SFAS 142 requires intangible assets,
      other than


                                                                            F-17

      goodwill, to be amortized over their useful lives unless these lives are
      determined to be indefinite. Other intangible assets are carried at cost
      less accumulated amortization. Intellectual Property Rights acquired by
      the Company in the ECI business combination in April 2003 (see Note A) are
      being amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the remaining
      lives of the patents when acquired or their estimated useful remaining
      lives, generally eleven to fourteen years. No goodwill impairment charge
      was recorded in 2003 in accordance with SFAS No. 142.

[17] Startup Activities

      Costs associated with the organization and start-up activities of the
      Company are expensed as incurred.

[18] Recent accounting pronouncements:

      In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"),
      "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees,
      Including Indirect Guarantees and Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45
      elaborates on the disclosures to be made by the guarantor in its interim
      and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain
      guarantees that it has issued. It also requires that a guarantor
      recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value
      of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial
      recognition and measurement provisions of this interpretation are
      applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after
      December 31, 2002; while the provisions of the disclosure requirements are
      effective for financial statements of interim or annual reports ending
      after December 15, 2002. The adoption of this statement had no effect on
      the Company's financial position or results of operations.

      In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
      Standards No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition
      and Disclosure" ("SFAS 148"). SFAS 148 amends Statement No. 123,
      "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), to provide
      alternative methods for voluntary transition to SFAS 123's fair value
      method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation ("the fair
      value method"). SFAS 148 also requires disclosure of the effects of an
      entity's accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee
      compensation on reported net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share
      in annual and interim financial statements. The Company has determined not
      to adopt the fair value method for stock based compensation.

      In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"),
      "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." In general, a variable
      interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal
      structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity
      investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that do not
      provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its
      activities. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be
      consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the investors do
      not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not
      have sufficient equity at risk for the


                                                                            F-18

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial
      support from other parties. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply
      immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003.
      The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal
      year or interim period beginning after December 15, 2003. Certain of the
      disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after
      January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was
      established. Management does not expect this statement to have a material
      impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

      In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133
      on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 149"). SFAS
      No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for
      derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded
      in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for
      hedging activities under FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for
      Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". This Statement requires
      that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for
      consistently as either derivatives or hybrid instruments. This Statement
      is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003,
      and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption
      of this statement has had no effect on the Company's financial statements.

      In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
      Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and
      Equity." SFAS No. 150 changes the accounting for certain financial
      instruments that under previous guidance issuers could account for as
      equity. It requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities in
      balance sheets. The guidance in SFAS No. 150 is generally effective for
      all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and
      otherwise is effective on July 1, 2003. The adoption of this statement has
      had no effect on the Company's financial statements.

The estimated future amortization expense of intellectual property rights is as
follows:

         2004                                                $  113,196
         2005                                                   113,196
         2006                                                   113,196

                    Total                                    $1,475,145
                                                             ==========

Additional amortization will be recognized in future periods if impairment of
the rights occurs. Amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2003
totaled $75,464.

Goodwill:

         Gross carrying amount                               $7,285,894
         Less, impairment charge                                      0

         Total goodwill                                      $7,285,894
                                                             ==========

The Company is required to perform goodwill impairment tests on an annual basis
and between annual tests in certain circumstances. In 2003, the Company did not
incurr any goodwill impairment. Future goodwill impairment tests may result in
charges to earnings if the Company determines that goodwill has become impaired.

The Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying
amount of the assets over their respective fair values. Fair value of goodwill
is determined by using a valuation model based on an market capitalization
approach. Fair value of the intangible assets is determined by discounted future
cash flows, appraisals or other methods. If the intangible asset determined to
be impaired is to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment charge
to the extent the present value of anticipated net cash flows attributable to
the asset are less than the asset's carrying value.

NOTE E - SHORT-TERM FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

The Company accounts for credit card obligations as short-term financing
arrangements. The obligations require minimum monthly payments that are based on
approximately 3% of the outstanding balance and interest accrues on the
outstanding balances at rates ranging from 10.5% to 25%. Outstanding balances of
these obligations aggregated $45,779 at December 31, 2003.


                                                                            F-20

NOTE O - ACQUISITIONS AND RELATED UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The purchase price of the acquisition of SRC and ECI was allocated to the assets
and liabilities acquired, both tangible and intangible (as determined by an
independent appraiser), with the excess of the purchase price over the fair
value of the net assets acquired of $7,285,894 being recorded as Goodwill. The
value of the intellectual property rights, amounting to $1,550,609, acquired in
the related financing was also determined by an independent appraiser. Due to
these acquisitions and related financing, SRC has acquired intellectual property
rights to certain key elements of these products - specifically, certain
communication, data entry and telemetry devices.

NOTE P - STOCK OPTION PLANS

At December 31, 2003, the Company had a stock-based employee compensation plan -
the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan. Two of Company's subsidiaries each had separate
stock-based employee compensation plans. These subsidiaries' plans were
contractually terminated by the Company upon the acquisition of SRC and ECI on
April 23, 2003. Furthermore, on March 14, 2003, all recipients of options
granted pursuant to these terminated plans rescinded all of their interests.

Contractually Terminated Subsidiaries' Plans

      CareerEngine Network 1990 Plan and CareerEngine Network 1999 Plan

plan (the "CareerEngine Network 1990 Plan") for granting options to purchase up
to 750,000 shares of its common stock, pursuant to which officers and other key
employees were eligible to receive incentive and/or nonqualified stock options,
stock appreciation rights, and restricted stock awards. Incentive stock options
granted under the CareerEngine Network 1990 Plan were exercisable for a period
of up to 10 years (five years in the case of a 10% or greater stockholder) from

shares of its common stock, pursuant to which officers and other key employees,
directors, independent contractors and agents were eligible to receive incentive

Network 1999 Plan were exercisable for a period of up to 10 years from date of
grant at an exercise price which was not less than the quoted market price on
date of grant, except that the exercise price of options granted to a
stockholder owing more than 10% of the outstanding capital stock may not have

Current Plan of the Company

      2003 Stock Incentive Plan

On April 30, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the 2003 Stock
Incentive Plan, which provided, among other matters, for incentive and
non-qualified stock options to purchase 3,500,000 shares of the Company's common
stock. On November 4, 2003, the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan was amended by the
Board of Directors of the Company to increase the number of incentive and
non-qualified stock options that may be granted from 3,500,00 to 5,000,000
shares of Common Stock. The purpose of the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, as
amended, ("2003 Stock Incentive Plan") is to provide incentives to officers, key
employees, directors, independent contractors and agents whose performance will
contribute to the long-term success and growth of the Company, to strengthen the
ability of the Company to attract and retain officers, key employees, directors,
independent contractors and agents of high competence, to increase the identity
of interests of such people with those of the Company's stockholders and to help
build loyalty to the Company through recognition and the opportunity for stock
ownership. The 2003 Stock Incentive Plan was ratified by a majority of the
stockholders of the Company on December 18, 2003 and is administered by the
Incentive Compensation Committee of the Board.

On April 30, 2003, incentive stock options to purchase 1,987,500 shares of the
Company's Common Stock were granted by the Incentive Compensation Committee to
five officers (1,800,000) and one employee (187,500) of the Company at a
weighted average exercise price of $1.32 per share. On November 4, 2003,
incentive stock options to purchase 950,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock
were granted by the Incentive Compensation Committee to three officers of the
Company at a weighted average exercise price of $1.09 per share. On April 30,
2003 (435,000), November 4, 2003 (220,000) and November 21, 2003 (100,000),
non-qualified stock options to purchase an aggregate 755,000 shares of the

NOTE Q - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the discontinuing of its
merchant banking operations, which consisted of its real estate operations
project with Carmike Cinemas, Inc., and its financial consulting operations. In
addition, in 2003 the Company sold one of its subsidiaries. Results of
discontinued operations related thereto are shown separately in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

Sale of Subsidiary

On August 15, 2003, the Company, for nominal consideration, sold all the stock
of one of its subsidiaries whose remaining assets and liabilities were
transferred to a trust for the benefit of its creditors and recognized a gain
amounting to approximately $583,634.


                                                                            F-31

NOTE Q - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Gain of Extinguishment of Debt

In 1997, the Company entered into a triple net, credit type lease with Carmike
Cinemas, Inc. ("Carmike"), pursuant to which the Company leased to Carmike six
parcels of land and the improvements thereon. Concurrently, the Company issued
$72,750,000 principal amount of its adjustable rate tender securities due
November 1, 2015 (the "Bonds"). The Bonds were secured by irrevocable letters of
credit issued by a group of banks. In connection therewith the Company entered
into a Reimbursement Agreement with Wachovia, as agent for the banks, under
which the Company was obligated to remit all rent received under the lease to
Wachovia to reimburse the banks for the Bond payments made by draws on their
letters of credit.

On August 8, 2000, Carmike filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code. As a result of that filing and Carmike's subsequent
failure to pay rent to date under the lease, the Company failed to make required
payments to Wachovia under the Reimbursement Agreement. Accordingly, Wachovia
declared a default under the Reimbursement Agreement and accelerated all amounts
due by the Company thereunder. Wachovia also directed the Trustee under the
related Indenture to redeem the Bonds. Such amounts were paid entirely through
draws on the related letters of credit and were not paid with funds of the
Company. However, as the Bonds were no longer outstanding, all unamortized
financing costs (amounting to $804,667) relating thereto were expensed. In
addition, Carmike has not disaffirmed the lease and continues to occupy the six
theaters.

Interest and fees, which have been accrued on the reimbursement obligations
through January 2002, have been recorded with a corresponding amount of accrued
rent receivable from Carmike.

On January 31, 2002, title to the six theaters was transferred to the banks in
payment of the non-recourse debt under the Reimbursement Agreement and the
Company recognized a gain of $3,512,884, representing the excess of the
liabilities over the carrying value of the assets relating to the real estate
leased to Carmike. In addition, the Company received $294,755 in connection with
the sale of its common membership interest in Movieplex relating to the transfer
of title of the movie theaters to Wachovia.

Income from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2003 and
2002 are as follows:

            January 1 through April 23, 2003, consisted of four outside
            Directors. This committee discusses audit


                                       51

            and financial reporting matters with both our management and our
            independent public accountants. To ensure independence, our
            independent public accountants may meet with the Audit Committee
            with or without the presence of management representatives. During
            the period January 1 through April 23, 2003, the Audit Committee,
            consisting of Joseph J. Anastasi, Charles W. Currie, David W. Dube
            and James J. Murtha, had four meetings. Since April 23, 2003, the
            members of the Audit Committee have been Messrs. Dube, Anastasi and
            Currie and they had 4 meetings. Each of these committee members is
            an Independent Director as that term is defined by the American
            Stock Exchange. In addition, Mr. Dube is a financial expert as
            defined in Securities and Exchange Commission rules. Webelieve that
            each of the Committee members is independent of management and free
            of any relationship that would interfere with his exercise of
            independent judgment as a member of this committee.

            The principal function of the Audit Committee is to serve as an
            independent and objective party to assist the Board of Directors in
            monitoring the integrity of our financial statements, our compliance
            with legal and regulatory requirements, and the independence and
            performance of our auditors.

            The Board also has a Compensation Committee for the purpose of
            reviewing the compensation of our officers and employees and making
            recommendations to the Board with respect thereto. During the period
            January 1 through April 23, 2003 the Compensation Committee,
            consisting of Messrs. G. Benoit, K. Benoit, Currie and Dube, had two
            meetings. Since April 23, 2003, the members of the Compensation
            Committee have been Messrs. G. Benoit, Gutowski, Reid and Dube and
            they had 1 meeting.

            The Board also has a Nominating Committee to propose nominees for
            election to the Board. During the period January 1 through April 23,
            2003 the Nominating Committee, consisting of Messrs. K. Benoit,
            Anastasi, Murtha and Currie, had one meeting. The Nominating
            Committee will consider suggestions for potential nominees submitted
            by stockholders if mailed to the Chairman of the Board. Since April
            23, 2003, the members of the Nominating Committee have been Messrs.
            G. Benoit, Gutowski, Reid and Dube and they had 1 meeting.

            The Board also has an Incentive Compensation Committee for the
            purpose of administering and making incentive compensation awards
            under our Incentive Compensation Plans. During the period January 1
            through April 23, 2003, the Incentive Compensation Committee,
            consisting of Messrs. Anastasi, Murtha, Currie, and Dube, had two
            meetings. Since April 23, 2003, the members of the Incentive
            Compensation Committee have been Messrs. Dube, Anastasi and Currie
            and they had 3 meetings.

            During 2003 each Director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of
            the total number of Board meetings and meetings of all committees of
            the Board on which he served, except for Mr. Murtha.

            (c) Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

            Officers, Directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a
            registered class of the Company's equity securities are required by
            Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act to file reports of ownership and
            changes in ownership with the Commission. They are also required by
            the Commission's rules to furnish the Company with copies of all
            Section 16(a) forms they file.

            Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms received by us,
            we believe that, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, its
            officers, directors and ten percent stockholders complied with all
            applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements on a timely basis
            except that a Form 5 filed on April 13, 2004 for George W. Benoit
            reflecting his sale of warrants to purchase 624, 870 shares of our
            common stock at his cost and his gift of 5,000 shares of common
            stock during the year ended December 31, 2003; a Form 5 filed on
            April 13, 2004 for David W. Dube reflecting the granting to him
            during the year ended December 31, 2003 of options to purchase
            75,000 shares of our common stock; a Form 5 filed on April 13, 2004
            for Michael J. Gutowski reflecting the granting to him during the
            year ended December 31, 2003 of options to purchase 175,000 shares
            of our common stock; a Form 5 filed on April 13, 2004 for Carol L.
            Gutowski reflecting the granting to her during the year ended
            December 31, 2003 of options to purchase 175,000 shares of our
            common stock; a Form 5 for Grace Lindblom reflecting her purchase of
            1,250,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,041,450
            shares of common stock.

            401(k) Cash or Deferred Compensation Plan. CareerEngine Network,

            to the plan pursuant to salary reduction agreements. CareerEngine
            may, in its discretion on an annual basis, make additional
            contributions. The contributions of the participants and those of
            CareerEngine are held in separate accounts. Participants are always
            fully vested in both accounts.

            1990 Incentive Compensation Plan. This Plan was terminated on June

            2003 Stock Incentive Plan. Our Stockholders approved the 2003 Stock
            Incentive Plan (the "2003 Plan"), which provides, among other
            matters, for incentive and non-qualified stock options to purchase
            5,000,000 shares of our common stock. The purpose of the 2003 Plan
            is to provide incentives to officers, key employees, directors,
            independent contractors and agents whose performance will contribute
            to our long-term success and growth, to strengthen our ability to
            attract and retain officers, key employees, directors, independent
            contractors and agents of high competence, to increase the identity
            of interests of such people with those of our stockholders and to
            help build loyalty to the Company through recognition and the
            opportunity for


                                       55
<PAGE>

            stock ownership. The 2003 Plan is administered by the Incentive
            Compensation Committee of the Board.

            The 2003 Plan permits the granting of both incentive stock options
            and non-qualified stock options. Generally, the option price of both
            incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options must be at
            least equal to 100% of the fair market value of the shares on the
            date of grant. The maximum term of each option is ten years. For any
            participant who owns shares possessing more than 10% of the voting
            rights of the outstanding shares of our common stock, the exercise
            price of any incentive stock option must be at least equal to 110%
            of the fair market value of the shares subject to such option on the
            date of grant and the term of the option may not be longer than five
            years. Options become exercisable at such time or times as the Board
            may determine at the time it grants options.

            Under the 2003 Plan, incentive stock options may be granted only to
            officers and employees and non-qualified stock options may be
            granted to officers, employees as well as directors, independent
            contractors and agents.

            The 2003 Plan may be amended, terminated or modified by the Board at
            any time, except that the Board may not, without approval by a vote
            of our stockholders (i) increase the maximum number of shares for
            which options may be granted under the 2003 Plan, (ii) change the
            persons eligible to participate in the 2003 Plan, or (iii)
            materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the
            2003 Plan. No such termination, modification or amendment may affect
            the rights of an optionee under an outstanding option or the grantee
            of an award.

            On April 30, 2003, incentive stock options to purchase 1,987,500
            shares of our common stock were granted by the Incentive
            Compensation Committee to five officers (1,800,000) and one
            employees (187,500) of the Company at a weighted average exercise
            price of $1.32 per share. On November 4, 2003, incentive stock
            options to purchase 950,000 shares of our common stock were granted
            by the Incentive Compensation Committee to three officers of the
            Company at a weighted average exercise price of $1.09 per share. On
            April 30, 2003 (435,000), November 4, 2003 (220,000) and November
            21, 2003 (100,000), non-qualified stock options to purchase an
            aggregate 755,000 shares of our common stock were granted by the
            Board of


                                       56
<PAGE>

            Directors to certain independent contractors of the Company. No
            options granted have been exercised.

            (c) Director Compensation

            Until October 1, 2003, we did not pay directors who were also our
            employees any fees for serving as directors, but reimbursed them for
            their out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such duties.
            Effective October 1, 2003, we agreed to pay directors who are not
            also our employees a monthly retainer of $1,000, plus expenses
            incurred for attending meetings of the Board, Annual Stockholders
            Meetings, and for each meeting of a committee of the Board not held
            in conjunction with a Board meeting. In addition, effective October
            1, 2003, any Director who is also a member of the Executive
            Committee will be paid an additional monthly retainer of $1,000.

            (b)   During the last quarter of the period covered by this report
                  the Company filed a report on Form 8K on December 8, 2003
                  relating to a description of the Company's business and risk
                  factors with respect thereto as set forth in Item 5 of that
                  report.

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

            (1) Audit Fees

            The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by our
            independent auditors for the audit of our annual financial
            statements and review of our financial statements included in our
            quarterly reports or services that are normally provided by the
            independent auditors in connection with statutory and regulatory
            filings or engagements were $125,261 for the fiscal year ended
            December 31, 2003 and $85,000 for the fiscal year ended December
            31, 2002.

            (2) Audit-Related Fees

            During our last two fiscal years our independent auditors did not
            perform any assurance and related services that were reasonably
            related to the performance or review of our financial statements for
            which we were billed except as may have been included in the fees
            set forth in Paragraph (1) above.

            (3) Tax Fees

            Our independent auditors did not provide us with any tax compliance,
            tax advice or tax planning services during our last two fiscal years
            and, accordingly, did not bill us for such services during these
            years.

            (4) All Other Fees

            During our last two fiscal years our independent auditors did not
            provide us with any products and did not provide us with or bill us
            any fees for services other than those set forth in Paragraph (1)
            above, except a certain record re-creation assignment amounting to
            approximately $31,200 in 2002 which was necessitated due to the
            catastrophe of September 11, 2001. The Company had maintained its
            offices at Suite 2112, Two World Trade Center, New York, NY.
