We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ACES Research, Inc. (an S corporation) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years 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 audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1998 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS ACES Research, Inc. (the "Company"), an Arizona corporation, was founded in 1991 as a privately held S corporation. The Company is primarily involved in providing high speed Internet connectivity in southern Arizona and throughout other regions of the United States. The Company's three primary products are 56Kbps Internet Access, T-1 and Ethernet Internet access, and Professional WEB access. The Company also provides a variety of network consulting, custom software, and professional training to support its primary product offerings. 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 disclosure 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 RECOGNITION AND DEFERRED REVENUE Revenue is recorded when earned. The Company signs connection agreements with its customers and those contracts are usually for a length of one year. Except on rare occasions, the Company bills those customers on a monthly basis and recognizes the associated revenues at that time. In circumstances where the customer has paid in advance for the Company's services, the Company records a deferred revenue balance and recognizes the revenue ratably over the life of the connection agreement. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The Company extends credit to its customers based on evaluations of ability to pay and generally no collateral is required. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment purchased new by the Company is recorded at cost. Depreciation for new equipment is computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives: Furniture and fixtures................................7 years Computer equipment....................................5 years Vehicles..............................................5 years INCOME TAXES The Company has elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include a provision for income taxes because the Company does not incur federal or state income taxes. Instead, its earnings and losses are included in the stockholders' personal income tax returns and are taxed based on their personal tax strategies. 6 ACES RESEARCH, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ADVERTISING EXPENSE Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $26,738 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and $24,725 for the year ended December 31, 1997. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS The Company has substantial business relationships with a few large customers. The Company's top two customers accounted for 27.2% and 32.9% of the Company's revenues as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. No other single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenues. 2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET Property and equipment, net consists of the following: 1998 1997 ---- ---- Vehicles.................................................. $ 15,000 $ 15,000 Furniture and fixtures.................................... 16,190 3,478 Computer equipment........................................ 146,364 126,850 --------- --------- Total............................................ 177,554 145,328 Less accumulated depreciation............................. (71,061) (39,054) --------- --------- $ 106,493 $ 106,274 --------- --------- --------- --------- 3. LINE OF CREDIT The Company, during 1998, secured a $50,000 revolving line of credit with interest accruing monthly at the rate equal to the bank's prime lending rate plus 4.75% (12.75% at December 31, 1998); a minimum payment equal to 2% of the balance of principal and accrued interest is due each month. The line of credit is secured by depository accounts held with the bank. There are no debt covenant obligations necessary to maintain the line of credit. The line of credit may be canceled by either party at any time and is payable on demand, upon the financial institution's request. As of December 31, 1998, the balance of the line of credit was $9,940. 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES CAPITAL LEASES The Company leases various computer equipment under the provision of a long-term capital lease. The economic substance of the leases is that the Company is financing the acquisition of the assets through the leases, and accordingly, they are recorded in the Company's assets and liabilities. The following is an analysis of the leased assets included in property and equipment: Computer equipment $ 36,145 Less accumulated depreciation (11,642) -------- Total $ 24,503 -------- -------- 7 ACES RESEARCH, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) CAPITAL LEASES (CONTINUED) The following is a schedule by year of future minimum lease payments under capital leases together with the present value of the net minimum lease payments as of December 31, 1998: Year Ending December 31: 1999 $15,000 2000 2,500 -------- Total minimum lease payments 17,500 Less amount representing interest (1,609) -------- Present value of net minimum lease payments 15,891 Less current maturities 13,439 -------- Long-term maturities $ 2,452 -------- -------- OPERATING LEASES Future minimum rental commitments as of December 31, 1998 under noncancelable operating leases are: 1999.......................................... $39,299 2000.......................................... 16,706 -------- $56,005 -------- -------- The Company leases certain facilities under operating leases which contain renewal options and provide for periodic cost-of-living adjustments and for other taxes and fees. Rental expense was $37,237 and $20,614 for the periods ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company is obligated for $21,403 as of December 31, 1998 and for $25,024 as of December 31, 1997 to its two primary stockholders for loans that were made to the Company on behalf of the aforementioned stockholders. The non-interest bearing loans are payable on demand. Assuming that the Company was unable to secure the non-interest bearing loans from its stockholders and assuming that the Company would have to draw on its line of credit at a rate of 12.75% as of December 31, 1998 to satisfy its obligations, the amount of interest expense incurred by the Company would have amounted to approximately $2,960 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and approximately $1,595 for the year ended December 31, 1997. 6. STOCK TRANSFER Effective January 1, 1998, the President of the Company agreed to grant 23% of his outstanding stock in the Company to two of the Company's key employees. In exchange for the stock, the two key employees agreed to pay the President an agreed upon sum of money upon termination of employment or by January 1, 2003, whichever occurs first. The Company accounted for the stock transfer as a variable compensation plan pursuant to the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force 95-16. No compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 1998 has been recorded to reflect the transfer of the stock ownership rights due to immateriality. 8 ACES RESEARCH, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Subsequent to December 31, 1998, the Company entered into negotiations with RMI.net to sell 100% of the outstanding stock of the Company. The transaction is expected to be consummated in July 1999. 8. YEAR 2000 READINESS (UNAUDITED) The Company is preparing its systems and applications for the Year 2000. Various problems may result from the improper processing of dates and date-sensitive calculations by computers and other machinery as the year 2000 is approached and reached. These problems arise from the fact that most of the world's computer hardware and software have historically used only two digits to identify the year in a date. If the computer systems cannot distinguish between the years 1900 and 2000, system failures or other computer errors could result. Since the Company is a relatively new company (founded in 1996), most hardware and software systems, as well as software programs used by the Company, will not be impacted by the Year 2000 issues. All future software that will be purchased will be year 2000 compliant. All internally written software has been checked to ensure year 2000 compliance. Users have been briefed on the necessity for them to check any special, non-mission critical software that they have purchased for their departments to ensure that it is year 2000 compliant. The Company has inventoried the externally purchased network elements, including routers, router software, router redundancy options, processor cards, and switches. The Company has verified 100% completion of testing, in cooperation with the external vendors, that the products associated with the network elements are year 2000 compliant. The Company has evaluated the financial impact for year 2000 compliance and total costs have not exceeded a material amount nor are future costs expected to be material. The estimates for the costs of the year 2000 program are based upon management's best estimates and may be updated or revised as additional information becomes available. 9 SELECTIVE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA The following selected unaudited pro forma combined financial information presented below has been derived from the unaudited or audited historical financial statements of the Company, ACES Research, Inc., Triad Resources L.L.C. (d/b/a WebZone), IdealDial Corporation and August 5th Corporation (d/b/a Dave's World) and reflects management's present estimate of pro forma adjustments, including a preliminary estimate of the purchase price allocations, which ultimately may be different. The acquisition is being accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values, which are subject to further adjustment based upon appraisals and other analysis, with appropriate recognition given to the effect of the Company's borrowing rates and income tax rates. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998 give effect to the acquisitions as if they had been consummated at the beginning of such period. These pro forma statements of operations combines the historical consolidated statements of operations for the periods reported for the Company, ACES Research, Inc., Triad Resources L.L.C. (d/b/a WebZone), IdealDial Corporation and August 5th Corporation (d/b/a Dave's World). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 1999 gives effect to the acquisitions as if they had been consummated on that date. This pro forma balance sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheet at that date for the Company, ACES Research, Inc., and for Triad Resources L.L.C. (d/b/a WebZone).

(C) PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS: The following pro forma adjustments have been made to the unaudited condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 1999 and the unaudited condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998: (1) To reflect the 174,634 shares of RMI stock valued at $1.9 million which is the number of shares issued in connection with the acquisition of ACES Research, Inc. and the 439,493 shares of RMI stock valued at $5.3 million which is the number of shares issued in connection with the acquisition of Triad Resources L.L.C. (d/b/a WebZone). The excess purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired has been allocated to goodwill. The pro forma adjustment reflects the incremental goodwill in the amount of $6.8 million. Shares of Common Stock issued for the acquisition were recorded at fair market value as based on the current market price of RMI's publicly traded stock. The final allocation of the purchase price will be made after the appropriate appraisals or analyses are performed. Upon completion of the appraisals and in accordance with the terms thereof, the excess purchase price currently allocated to goodwill will be allocated to the appropriate asset classifications, including customer list and goodwill. While goodwill will be amortized over a period of five years, customer list or other identified intangibles may be amortized over shorter periods, which would therefore increase amortization expense. (2) To eliminate the equity accounts of the acquisition. (3) To adjust amortization expense due to increase in the carrying value of goodwill, using a life of five years, as if such acquisitions had been completed as of January 1, 1998. (4) To adjust for revenues and expenses for the acquisition of ACES Research, Inc., Triad Resources L.L.C. (d/b/a WebZone) and IdealDial Corporation as if such acquisitions had been completed as of January 1, 1999. (5) To adjust for revenues and expenses for the acquisition of ACES Research, Inc., Triad Resources L.L.C. (d/b/a WebZone), IdealDial Corporation and August 5th Corporation (d/b/a Dave's World) as if such acquisitions had been completed as of January 1, 1998. 14
