Summary of Significant Nature of Operations Accounting Policies Advanced Acoustical Concepts, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of Washington on June 1, 1998. The Company's main office is located in Dayton, Ohio. The Company contracts with private companies, government agencies and the military to provide video conferencing installation and maintenance services, audio/video engineering, media room construction and other electronic communication services. The Company's customers are located throughout the United States. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue and Cost Recognition Revenues from fixed-price construction contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date to estimated total cost for each contract. This method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on the contracts. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimated costs, it is at least reasonably possible that estimates used will change within the near term. As these contracts extend over one or more periods, revisions in costs and profit estimated during the course of the work are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts that require the revision become known. 8 Advanced Acoustical Concepts, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contract costs include all direct materials, labor and subcontracting costs and those indirect costs relating to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability, including those arising from final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. The asset, "Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts", represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts," represents billings in excess of revenues recognized. Revenues on maintenance contracts are recognized ratably over the life of the contract using the straight-line method. Deferred revenue is recorded for the excess of maintenance contract billings over revenues recognized. Contract costs are recognized as incurred. Provisions of estimated losses on uncompleted maintenance contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the current maturity of these items. Inventories Inventories, consisting of finished goods and spare parts, is valued at the lower of cost (determined on a first in, first out basis) or market. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 3-10 years. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to operations as incurred. 9 Advanced Acoustical Concepts, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash and Cash Equivalents All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Income Taxes The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be an "S" corporation. The election was effective for federal and Ohio State income tax purposes, but was not effective in two other states. Accordingly, the Company may incur income tax obligations relating to those states only, and the financial statements may include a provision for those taxes. Earnings and losses for federal income tax purposes are reported on the individual income tax returns of the stockholders based upon their proportionate share. Therefore, no provision or liability for Federal income taxes has been included in these financial statements. Foreign Currency Translation Foreign currency exchange gains or losses arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated at average exchange rates. The effects of these exchange adjustments are included in operations. Foreign currency denominated cash accounts are translated at year-end exchange rates. The effects of the translation adjustments are recognized as a separate component of stockholders' deficit. 10 Advanced Acoustical Concepts, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long-Lived Assets The Company follows SFAS No. 121 "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" ("SFAS 121"). In accordance with SFAS 121 the Company periodically reviews the carrying value of certain of its assets in relation to historical results, current business conditions and trends to identify potential situations in which the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable. If such reviews indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable, the Company would determine whether the estimated amounts recoverable through future operations and sale of a property on an undiscounted basis are below the property's carrying value. If the property is determined to be impaired, it must be written down to fair value. As of December 31, 2000, no write-downs were required. 2.

The line is collateralized by contract receivables, inventory and equipment and is guaranteed by the Company's stockholders. Total amounts outstanding at December 31, 1999 was $745,282.

Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In February 2000, the Company entered into an Agreement with a financial institution whereby the Company factors certain of its accounts receivables with recourse. The Company receives up to 80% of the aggregate net face value of the receivables. The Company is required to pay fees on the gross face value of the accounts sold based upon the number of days elapsed between the date the account is purchased and collection of each account occurs. The fees range from 2.5% to 13%. At December 31, 2000 borrowings under this agreement totaled $339,475. In March 2000, the Company added an addendum to the Agreement. Under this addendum, the Company, in addition to financing certain of its accounts receivables, can also finance its irrevocable purchase orders from their customers. An initial discount is charged based on the gross amount of each purchase order. The discount varies based upon the ratio of the sum of all advances, payments, guarantees and letters of credit made to the total of all gross receivables. The discount ranges from 3.99% to 5.99%. At December 31, 2000 borrowings under the addendum totaled $204,470. 13 Advanced Acoustical Concepts, Inc.

15 Advanced Acoustical Concepts, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. Commitments and Some of the Company's contracts contain Contingencies warranty clauses which obligate the Company to perform repairs of installed equipment for various periods of time after completion of the initial contracts. The Company has not experienced significant costs relating to these clauses through December 31, 2000, and management believes future warranty costs will be immaterial. Accordingly, no accrual for these future costs is included in the accompanying financial statements. The Company has also entered into maintenance contracts which obligate the Company to perform maintenance services on an "as needed" basis during the contractual period. The Company records revenues and costs under the contracts as described in Note 1. The Company is involved in litigation with a former employee. The employee has brought suit against the Company alleging that the Company failed to pay sales commissions to him over a three year period. The Company has accrued $50,000 related to this suit which represents its best estimate of the exposure from this matter. 10.
