Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors
U.S. Convergion, Inc.
Atlanta, Georgia

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of U.S. Convergion, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows from the period of inception (November 30, 2001) to December 31, 2001, and for the year ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of U.S. Convergion, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations and its cash flows from the period of inception (November 30, 2001) to December 31, 2001 and for the year then ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in 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 1, the Company’s liquidity has been adversely impacted by recurring operating losses. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding this matter are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 1, during 2002 the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 – Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies

Nature of operations

On November 30, 2001, U.S. Convergion, LLC was formed. On March 29, 2002, the Company was converted from a limited liability company to an incorporated entity. At that time the name of the Company was formally changed to U.S. Convergion, Inc. (“the Company”). The accompanying financial statements reflect the initial capitalization of the Company if the incorporation had occurred at the Company’s date of inception.

The Company provides technology-based interaction integration solutions to primarily middle-market organizations throughout the United States. The Company is primarily a reseller of telecommunications equipment and provides telecommunications implementation services for telephony interface applications, unified messaging applications, and wireless applications.

At December 31, 2002 the Company had a shareholders’ deficit of approximately $2.6 million, and incurred a loss for the year ended December 31, 2002 of approximately $2.8 million. In addition, at December 31, 2002 the Company’s current liabilities exceeded current assets. These matters will affect the ability of the entity to continue as a going-concern. The financial statements do not contain any adjustments of carrying amounts of assets or liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations. Management of the Company is evaluating these matters, developing plans to enhance the revenue generating opportunities of the Company, and considering opportunities with strategic partners and potential merger candidates. The ability of the Company to continue as a going-concern is significantly dependent upon the results of management’s evaluation and plans. See Note 4 regarding debt covenants and Note 13 regarding the acquisition of the Company subsequent to December 31, 2002.

Summary of significant accounting policies

Cash equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable — Accounts receivable consist of trade accounts receivable and are stated at cost less an allowance for doubtful accounts. Credit is extended to customers after an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, and generally collateral is not required. Management’s determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on an evaluation of the accounts receivable, past experience, current economic conditions, and other risks inherent in the accounts receivable portfolio.

Property and equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Estimated useful lives of the assets range generally from 3 to 15 years. Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.

Revenue and cost recognition – Revenues from equipment and implementation contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date to the estimated total cost for each contract. This method is used because management considers total job cost to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 – Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Revenue and cost recognition (continued) — Contract costs include all direct equipment, material, and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor. 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 contract performance, contract conditions, and estimated profitability, that may result in revisions to costs and income are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Revenues from contracts in which the Company provides only consulting services are recognized as the services are performed.

The asset, “cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts,” represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, “billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts,” represents billings in excess of revenues recognized.

Income taxes — Deferred income tax assets and liabilities reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates presently in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company evaluates the realizability of net deferred tax assets and, when determined, provides a valuation allowance to reduce the asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

Advertising costs — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. These costs totaled $159,931 in 2002 and $350 in 2001.

Concentrations of credit risk — Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Total accounts receivable due from the Company’s two largest customers amounted to 40% and 9% of the total accounts receivable balance in 2002 and 2001, respectively.

At times, cash balances at financial institutions are in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The cash balances are maintained at financial institutions with high credit — quality ratings and the Company believes no significant risk of loss exists with respect to those balances.

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 certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of any 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.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 – Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Goodwill and other intangible assets — The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, effective January 1, 2002. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are not amortized but rather are tested at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144. SFAS No. 144 requires the Company to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and 144 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Stock based compensation – The Company accounts for stock-based compensation utilizing the intrinsic value method in accordance with the Account Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The Company has determined that the outstanding stock options at December 31, 2002 have no material compensation value for pro forma disclosure presentation in accordance with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. See Note 12 for additional information regarding the Company’s stock based compensation.

Note 2 – Acquisitions

On December 7, 2001, the Company purchased certain assets of and assumed certain liabilities of IKON Office Solutions Technology Services, LLC (IKON). Prior to this acquisition the Company had no operations. The purchase price of the IKON acquisition was $200,000. The Company acquired the certain assets and liabilities to establish a business operation in the telecommunications services business. The acquisition was valued at the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities and did not result in the recognition of goodwill. As the Company had no operations prior to the acquisition, the statements of operations for the period from inception to December 31, 2001, and for the year ended December 31, 2002, include the operations from the IKON acquisition. Following is a condensed balance sheet of the certain acquired assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition:

         
Net receivables
  $ 306,000  
Other assets
    96,000  
Accounts payable and other liabilities
    (202,000 )
 
   
 
Net assets acquired
  $ 200,000

Note 2 – Acquisitions (continued)

On May 10, 2002, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of UITSG, LLC. The primary reason for the acquisition was to continue to develop the Company’s resources in the telecommunication services business, in which UITSG was involved. The purchase price of the acquisition was $100,000, and the assumption of certain additional debt obligations of UITSG, for a total acquisition price of $1,226,000. The Company recognized approximately $773,000 of goodwill in recording the acquisition. The Company believed that the acquisition, which included the retention of a key executive and sales personnel, would greatly enhance the Company’s market position in the telecommunications services industry, resulting in goodwill. The operations from the acquired assets and liabilities are presented in the accompanying 2002 statement of operations for the period from the date of acquisition to December 31, 2002.

Note 9 – Income taxes

From the period of inception (November 30, 2001) through March 28, 2002, the Company was a limited liability company. The taxable income or loss of a limited liability company is taxed directly to the individual members. On March 29, 2002, the Company converted from a limited liability company to a corporation. Had the Company been an incorporated entity from inception there would have been no income tax expense or benefit recognized for the period prior to conversion, due to the loss incurred during the period.

At December 31, 2002, the Company had no current tax expense, as the Company had a loss, and had a deferred tax benefit of $464,810. The benefit was reduced to zero through an increase to the valuation allowance of $464,810.

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities are:

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in order to present consolidated financial position and results of operations of Market Central, Inc. and U.S. Convergion, Inc. as if the acquisition had occurred as of February 28, 2003 for the pro forma condensed balance sheet and to give effect to the acquisition of Convergion, as if the transaction had taken place at September 1, 2001 for the pro forma condensed consolidated statements of losses for the year ended August 31, 2002 and as of September 1, 2002 for the six month period ended February 28, 2003.

The following pro forma adjustments are incorporated into the pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheets as of February 28, 2003 and the pro forma condensed consolidated statements of losses for the six month period ended February 28, 2003 and for the year ended August 31, 2002:

Explanation of Adjustments and Eliminations:

a.   To record the issuance of 374,630 shares of Market Central, Inc. common stock issued to stockholders of U.S. Convergion, Inc. in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of U.S. Convergion, Inc. common stock
 
b.   To record the acquisition of Convergion for stock. The significant components of this transaction are.

   Excess of liabilities assumed over assets acquired $ 2,581,564  
   Common stock issued   671,899  
   Acquisition costs   161,000  
     
 
       Total consideration received $ 3,414,463  

    The excess consideration received has been accounted for as goodwill.

c.   The pro forma statement of operations for the year ended August 31, 2002 was prepared by combining the statement of operations of Market Central for that period with the audited statement of operations of U.S. Convergion, Inc. for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. The registrant believes that this presentation is appropriate because the registrant would not otherwise be able to reflect a full year of operations of U.S. Convergion, which commenced operations during December 2001.

d.   The Market Central, Inc. weighted average shares outstanding at August 31, 2002 reflect the 1:10 reverse split which occurred on February 5, 2003.
