U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Washington, D.C. 20549 Form 10-SB General form for registration of securities of small business issuers Under Section 12(b) or (g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Master Communications Corp. (Name of Small Business Issuer in its charter) Florida (State or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization) 59-3442557 (I.R.S. Employer Identification No.) 701 Brickell Avenue, Suite 3120 Miami, Florida 33131 (Address of principal executive offices) (Zip Code) (305)358-3678 (Issuer's telephone number) Securities to be registered under Section 12(b) of the Act: Securities to be registered under Section 12(g) of the Act: _X_ Title of each class to be so registered: Common Stock Name of each exchange on which each class is to be registered: NASDAQ OTC Bulletin Board To simplify the language in this Registration Statement Master Communications Corp. is referred to herein as "the Company" or "We". Item 1. Description of Business. --------------------------------- Business Development. We were incorporated under the name Master Communications Corp. in the State of Florida on May 8, 1997. We have not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding. We have not been involved in any material reclassification, merger consolidation, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business. Business of Issuer. We are a development stage company which intends to provide telecommunications services in various markets throughout the United States. The result is that we will become a provider of local and long distance telephone services and related services. Ultimately, we intend to provide local and long distance services plus Internet access, Personnel Communications Services ("PCS"), cellular, paging, facsimile, enhanced calling cards, prepaid phone cards and calling cards and video communications services. We also intend to qualify as an "Integrated Communications Provider" ("ICP") under the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "Telecommunications Act"). Under the Telecommunications Act, such ICPs can offer cellular, PCS, paging, voice mail, and a host of other telecommunications services along with local and long distance service. We intend to target its services to small and mid-size commercial end users. MasterTel Communications Corp. ("MasterTel") is our only subsidiary. We own 100% of MasterTel. It was incorporated in Florida on December 16, 1998 and has authority to do business in New York, Illinois, Texas and California. Jamee Freeman is the President and Secretary (the only officer) and its sole director. Presently, it is applying to operate as a local reseller in Illinois, Texas and California and has been approved in New York. All applications have been filed and it was approved in New York and Texas. Upon approval of such states, MasterTel intends to apply for local reseller licenses in other states. Our marketing strategy will be to provide the consumer or business with a single source for all of their telecommunications needs, all billed on a single invoice. Our customers will receive a "Management Report Style" invoice, one that is easily read and understood on an all-in-one-bill. We will format customer invoices and out-source printing and mailing. The Company is currently working toward a real time Internet bill presentation. Online payment works to our benefit by ensuring prompt payment, no postage expense and minimal bad debt. Our current business strategy is to provide telecommunications services in the following geographical areas: New York City, New York Miami, Florida Orlando, Florida San Francisco, California Los Angeles, California Dallas,Texas Las Vegas, Nevada Chicago, Illinois We also plan to grow through acquisitions of income producing telecommunication companies. Acquisitions will be determined based upon the operating structures of the target, including the quality or existence of sales, billing and customer service departments. The Company intends to consolidate the operations of the acquired entities into a single operation resulting in significant cost savings and substantial revenues within a minimal period of time. Operational functions such as billing, customer service and management functions will be centralized, thereby eliminating redundant systems and functions. We will utilize the existing billing and customer services infrastructure of the acquired entities where appropriate, and expand or contract such infrastructure as operations dictate. Our acquisition strategy will also provide us with immediate revenues which will, upon reaching a certain level, provide the Company with advantages resulting from economies of scale. Once we have acquired a reseller, we will contact the resellers' customers with a view towards marketing to the customer a host of other telecommunications services we offer. Management believes that its ability to customize telecommunications services and its effective pricing of services, along with the attractiveness of single invoicing, will attract customers and expand current usage by existing customers. The market potential for telecommunications services is large and growing. Industry sources estimate that in 1996 total revenues from local and long distance telecommunications services were approximately $222 million, of which approximately $86.9 billion were derived from local exchange services and approximately $99.7 billion from toll service revenue. Over the past few years the long distance segment of the telecommunications industry has been growing at an estimated annual rate of approximately 5% in revenues and 12% in usage, while during the same period pricing and costs have been decreasing at an average annual rate of 7%. The local phone service market segment of the overall telecommunications industry is even larger than the long distance segment, and continues to grow rapidly as the increasing need for telephone numbers along with rising demand for PCS cellular, paging and Internet access services. Based upon information provided by the FCC, aggregate revenues for local and long distance services grew at a compounded annual rate of approximately 5.5% between 1991 and 1996. The Telecommunications Act, the FCC's issuance of rules for competition and pro-competitive policies developed by state regulatory commissions have created opportunities for new entrants, including the Company, to capture a portion of the local exchange carrier's dominant, and historically monopoly controlled, market share of local services. The development of switched local services competition, however, is in its early stages, and the Company believes that competitive local exchange carriers ("CLECs") currently serve fewer than 5% of the total business lines in the United States. In each of the markets we intend to serve, we will seek to become a competitor to the incumbent local exchange carrier ("I-LEC") for its targeted customers by providing an integrated package of high quality local, long distance and enhanced telecommunications services at competitive prices. The Company will serve as a competitive local exchange company ("C-LEC") to enter the local telephone service business. Under the Telecommunications Act, I-LECs must provide C-LECs such as the Company with access to their facilities at a substantial discount thereby enabling C-LECs to provide local telephone services to the public. We believe that we will be able to offer telecommunications services to customers at less than the prices which the customer can obtain if they purchase the services directly from the I-LECs. Competition. The telecommunications industry is highly competitive. In each of the markets targeted by the Company, we will compete principally with the ILEC serving that area. ILECs are established providers of local telephone services to all or virtually all telephone subscribers within their respective service areas. ILECs also have long-standing relationships with regulatory authorities at the federal and state levels. While some FCC and state administrative decisions and initiatives provide business opportunities to telecommunications providers such as the Company, they also provide the ILECs with increased pricing flexibility for their private line and special access and switched access services. In addition, with respect to competitive access services (as opposed to switched local exchange services), the FCC recently proposed a rule that would provide for increased ILEC pricing flexibility and deregulation for such access services either automatically or after certain competitive levels are reached. If the ILECs are allowed by regulators to offer discounts to large customers through contract tariffs, engage in aggressive volume and term discount pricing practices for their customers, and/or seek to charge competitors excessive fees for interconnection to their networks,ILEC competitors such as the Company could be materially adversely affected. If future regulatory decisions afford the ILECs increased access services pricing flexibility or other regulatory relief, such decisions could also have a material adverse effect on ILEC competitors such as the Company. We expect to face competition from other current and potential market entrants, including long distance carriers seeking to enter, re-enter or expand entry into the local exchange marketplace such as AT&T Corp. ("AT&T"), WorldCom/MCI Communications Corporation ("MCI"), Sprint Corporation ("Sprint"), and from other CLECs, resellers, competitive access providers ("CAPs"), cable television companies, electric utilities, microwave carriers, wireless telephone system operators and private networks built by large end users. In addition, the development of new technologies could give rise to significant new competition for us. We will also compete with equipment vendors and installers, and telecommunications management companies with respect to certain portions of its business. Many of our current and potential competitors have financial, technical, marketing, personnel and other resources, including brand name recognition, substantially greater than those of the Company, as well as other competitive advantages over the Company. The Telecommunications Act includes provisions which impose certain regulatory requirements on all local exchange carriers, including ILEC competitors such as the Company, while granting the FCC expanded authority to reduce the level of regulation applicable to any or all telecommunications carriers, including ILECs. The manner in which these provisions of the Telecommunications Act are implemented and enforced could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to successfully compete against ILECs and other telecommunications service providers. As a recent entrant in the integrated telecommunications services industry, we have not achieved and do not expect to achieve a significant market share for any of our services. In particular, the ILECs have long-standing relationships with their customers, have financial, technical, marketing, personnel and other resources substantially greater than those of the Company, have the potential to subsidize competitive services with revenues from a variety of businesses and currently benefit from existing regulations that favor the ILECs over the Company in certain respects. Certain federal and state laws and regulations allow CLECs such as us to interconnect with ILEC facilities and provide increased business opportunities for the Company. Such interconnection opportunities have been accompanied by increased pricing flexibility for and relaxation of regulatory oversight of the ILECS. To the extent the Company interconnects with and uses ILEC networks to service its customers, we will be dependent upon the technology and capabilities of the ILECs to meet certain telecommunications needs of the Company's customers and to maintain its service standards, and the Company must interface with the ILECs' legacy OSS in order to properly provision new customers. The Telecommunications Act imposes interconnection obligations on ILECs, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the interconnection we require at rates, and on terms and conditions, that permit us to offer switched services that are both competitive and profitable. In the event that we experience difficulties in obtaining high quality, reliable and reasonably priced services from the ILECs, the attractiveness of our services to our customers could be impaired. The long distance telecommunications market has numerous entities competing for the same customers and a high average churn rate, as customers frequently change long distance providers in response to the offering of lower rates or promotional incentives. Prices in the long distance market have declined significantly in recent years and are expected to continue to decline. We will face competition from large carriers such as AT&T, MCI and Sprint. Other competitors are likely to include RBOCs providing out-of-region (and, with the removal of regulatory barriers, in-region) long distance services, other CLECs, microwave and satellite carriers and private networks owned by large end users. We may also increasingly face competition from companies offering long distance data and voice services over the Internet. Such companies could enjoy a significant cost advantage because they do not currently pay carrier access charges or universal service fees. In addition, in June 1998, Sprint announced its intention to offer voice, data and video services over its nationwide asynchronous transfer mode network, which Sprint anticipates will significantly reduce its cost to provide such services. Sprint plans to bill its customers based upon the amount of traffic carried, irrespective of the time required to send the traffic or the traffic's destination. The Internet services market is highly competitive and we expect that competition will continue to intensify. The Company's competitors in this market include ISPs, other telecommunications companies, online service providers and Internet software providers. Many of these competitors have greater financial, technological, marketing, personnel and other resources than those available to the Company. We believe that the principal competitive factors affecting our business operations will be pricing levels and clear pricing policies, reliable customer service, accurate billing and, to a lesser extent, variety of services. Our ability to compete effectively will depend upon our ability to maintain high quality, market-driven ervices at prices generally equal to or below those charged by our competitors. To maintain our competitive posture, we believe that we must be in a position to reduce our prices in order to meet reductions in rates, if any, offered by others. Any such reductions could adversely affect us. The recent World Trade Organization ("WTO") agreement on basic telecommunications services could increase the level of competition faced by us. Under this agreement, the United States and 72 other members of the WTO committed themselves to opening their respective telecommunications markets and/or foreign ownership and/or to adopting regulatory measures to protect competitors against anticompetitive behavior by dominant telecommunications companies, effective in some cases as early as January 1998. There can be no assurance that the pro-competitive effects of the WTO agreement will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. A continuing trend toward consolidation, mergers, acquisitions and strategic alliances in the telecommunications industry could also increase the level of competition we face. For example, WorldCom acquired another CLEC, Brooks Fiber Properties, Inc., and then merged MCI. In May 1998, SBC Communications Inc. and Ameritech Corporation agreed to merge. These types of consolidations and alliances could put us at a competitive disadvantage. Government Regulation. ---------------------- Our networks and the provision of telecommunications services are subject to significant regulation at the federal, state and local levels. Delays in receiving required regulatory approvals or the enactment of new adverse regulation or regulatory requirements may have a material adverse effect upon us. The FCC exercises jurisdiction over us with respect to interstate and international services. Additionally, we file tariffs with the FCC. On October 29, 1996, the FCC approved an order that eliminates the tariff filing requirements for interstate domestic long distance service provided by non-dominant carriers such as us. On February 13, 1997, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit stayed the FCC order, and we are required to continue filing tariffs while this stay remains in effect. If the stay is lifted and the FCC order becomes effective, telecommunications carriers such as us will not be able to rely on the filing of tariffs with the FCC as a means of providing notice to customers of prices, terms, and conditions on which we offer interstate services. While tariffs offered a means of providing notice of prices, terms, and conditions, we intend to rely primarily on our sales force and direct marketing to provide such information to our customers. In addition, we must obtain prior FCC authorization for installation and operation of international facilities and the provision (including resale) of international long distance services. State regulatory commissions exercise jurisdiction over us to the extent we provide intrastate services. As such a provider, we will be required to obtain regulatory authorization and/or file tariffs at state agencies in most of the states in which we intend to operate. If and when we seek to overbuild certain network segments, local authorities will regulate our access to municipal rights-of-way. Network buildouts are also subject to numerous local regulations such as building codes and licensing. Such regulations vary on a city by city and county by county basis. There can be no assurance that the FCC or state commissions will grant required authority or refrain from taking action against us if it is found to have provided services without obtaining the necessary authorizations. If authority is not obtained or if tariffs are not filed, or are not updated, or otherwise do not fully comply with the tariff filing rules of the FCC or state regulatory agencies, third parties or regulators could challenge these actions. Such challenges could cause us to incur substantial legal and administrative expenses. The Telecommunications Act provides for a significant deregulation of the domestic telecommunications industry, including the local exchange, long distance and cable television industries. The Telecommunications Act remains subject to judicial review and additional FCC rule making, and thus it is difficult to predict what effect the legislation will have on us and our future operations. There are currently many regulatory actions underway and being contemplated by federal and state authorities regarding interconnection pricing and other issues that could result in significant changes to the business conditions in the telecommunications industry. There can be no assurance that these changes will not have a material adverse effect upon us. On December 31, 1997, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas issued a decision (the "SBC Decision") finding that Sections 271 to 275 of the Telecommunications Act are unconstitutional. These sections of the Telecommunications Act impose restrictions on the lines of business in which the RBOCs may engage, including establishing the conditions they must satisfy before they may provide in-region interLATA telecommunications services. The SBC Decision has been stayed while an appeal is pending before the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. We cannot predict the likely outcome of that appeal, although on May 15, 1998, the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rejected a very similar challenge to the constitutionality of Section 274 of the Telecommunications Act. If the SBC Decision is upheld on appeal, however, the RBOCs would be able to provide such in-region services immediately without satisfying the statutory conditions. This would likely have an unfavorable effect on our business for at least two reasons. First, the SBC Decision removes the incentive RBOCs have to cooperate with entities like the Company to foster competition within their service areas so that they can qualify to offer in-region interLATA services because the decision allows RBOCs to offer such services immediately. However, the SBC Decision does not affect other provisions of the Telecommunications Act which create legal obligations for all ILECs to offer interconnection and network access. Second, companies seeking to obtain licenses and permits will allow such companies to offer its customers both long distance and local exchange services, which the RBOCs currently may not do. This ability to offer "one-stop shopping" gives us a marketing advantage that it would no longer enjoy if the SBC Decision were upheld on appeal. In addition to requirements placed on ILECs, the Telecommunications Act subjects us to certain federal regulatory requirements relating to the provision of local exchange service in a market. All ILECs and CLECs must interconnect with other carriers, provide nondiscriminatory access to rights-of-way, offer reciprocal compensation for termination of traffic, and provide dialing parity and telephone number portability. The Telecommunications Act also requires all telecommunications carriers to ensure that their services are accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities. On May 8, 1997, the FCC released an order establishing a significantly expanded federal universal service subsidy regime. For example, the FCC established new subsidies for telecommunications and information services provided to qualifying schools and libraries with an annual cap of $2.3 billion and for services provided to rural health care providers with an annual cap of $400 million. The FCC also expanded the federal subsidies for local exchange telephone service provided to low-income consumers. Providers of interstate telecommunications service, such as us, as well as certain other entities, must pay for these programs. Our share of these federal subsidy funds will be based on our share of certain defined telecommunications end-user revenues. Currently, the FCC is assessing such payments on the basis of a provider's revenue for the previous year; since we had no significant revenues in 1998, we will not be liable for subsidy payments in any material amount during 1999. With respect to subsequent years, however, we are currently unable to quantify the amount of subsidy payments that we will be required to make and the effect that these required payments will have on our financial condition. In the May 8th order, the FCC also announced that it will soon revise its rules for subsidizing service provided to consumers in high cost areas, which may result in further substantial increases in the overall cost of the subsidy program. Several parties have appealed the May 8th order. Such appeals have been consolidated and transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit where they are currently pending. In addition, on July 3, 1997, several ILECs filed a petition for stay of the May 8th order with the FCC. That petition is pending, as well as several petition for administrative reconsideration of the order. To the extent we provide inter-exchange telecommunications service, we are required to pay access charges to ILECs when we use the facilities of those companies to originate or terminate inter-exchange calls. Also, as a CLEC, we may provide access services to other inter-exchange service providers. The interstate access charges of ILECs are subject to extensive regulation by the FCC, while those of CLECs are subject to a lesser degree of FCC regulation but remain subject to the requirement that all charges be just, reasonable, and not unreasonably discriminatory. In two orders released on December 24, 1996, and May 16, 1997, the FCC made major changes in the interstate access charge structure. In the December 24th order, the FCC removed restrictions on ILECs' ability to lower access prices and relaxed the regulation of new switched access services in those markets where there are other providers of access services. If this increased pricing flexibility is not effectively monitored by federal regulators, it could have a material adverse effect on our ability to compete in providing interstate access services. The May 16th order substantially increased the costs that ILECs subject to the FCC's price cap rules ("price cap LECs") recover through monthly, non-traffic-sensitive access charges and substantially decreased the costs that price cap LECs recover through traffic-sensitive access charges. In the May 16th order, the FCC also announced its plan to bring interstate access rate levels more in line with cost. The plan will include rules that are expected to be established sometime in 1998 that may grant price cap LECs increased pricing flexibility upon demonstrations of increased competition (or potential competition) in relevant markets. The manner in which the FCC implements this approach to lowering access charge levels could have a material effect on our ability to compete in providing interstate access services. Several parties have appealed the May 16th order. Those appeals have been consolidated and transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit where they are currently pending. The FCC released a report to Congress on April 10, 1998 concerning its implementation of the telecommunications subsidy provisions of the Telecommunications Act. In that report, the FCC clarified that entities that provide transmission capacity to ISPs are providing telecommunications services subject to contribution requirements. The FCC indicated that it would address the issues of whether ISPs would contribute to the universal service fund based on the utilization of their own transmission facilities and whether certain ISP services such as phone-to-phone IP telephony are telecommunications services subject to universal service fund contributions and access charges at a later date.

We have not and do not intend to enter into any additional transactions with our management or any nominees for such positions. We have not and do not intend to enter into any transactions with our beneficial owners. We are not a subsidiary of any parent company. Since inception, we have not entered into any transactions with promoters. Our management is involved in other business activities and may, in the future become involved in other business opportunities. If a specific business opportunity becomes available, such persons may face a conflict in selecting between our business and their other business interests. We have not and do not intend in the future to formulate a policy for the resolution of such conflicts. Item 8. Legal Proceedings. -------------------------- We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding, and we are not aware of any contemplated legal proceeding by a governmental authority involving us. Item 9. Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant's Common Equity and Other Shareholder Matters. ------------------------------------------------------- There is no established public trading market for our securities. After this document is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we currently intend to seek a listing on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board in the United States. Our shares are not and have not been listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system. At July 30, 1999, there were 4,360,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. We have never paid dividends on our shares. We currently intend to retain earnings for use in our business and do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. As of the date of this registration, we had forty (40) holders of record of our common stock. We currently have one class of common stock outstanding. Certain securities herein are restricted securities as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 and may only be sold under Rule 144 or otherwise under an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration, if available. Rule 144 generally provides that a person who has satisfied a one year holding period for the restricted securities and is not an affiliate of us may sell such securities subject to the Rule 144 provisions. Under Rule 144, directors, executive officers, and persons or entities they control or who control them may sell shares that have satisfied the one year holding period for the restricted securities in an amount limited to, in any three-month period, the greater of 1% of our outstanding shares of common stock or the average of the weekly trading volume in our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding a sale. All sales under Rule 144 must also be made without violating the manner-of-sale provisions, notice requirements, and the availability of public information about us. A sale of shares by such security holders, whether under Rule 144 or otherwise, may have a depressing effect upon the price of our common stock in any market that might develop. Penny Stock Considerations. --------------------------- Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks" are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. Our shares will likely be subject to such penny stock rules, and our shareholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities. No market exists for our securities and there is no assurance that a regular trading market will develop, or if developed will be sustained. A shareholder, in all likelihood, therefore, will not be able to resell the securities referred to herein should he or she desire to do so. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a lending institution will accept our securities as pledged collateral for loans unless a regular trading market develops. There are no plans, proposals, arrangements or understandings with any person in regard to the development of a trading market in any of our securities. Item 10. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities. ------------------------------------------------- The following sets forth information relating to all of our previous sales of securities which were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933. In August, 1997, we completed a Regulation D, Rule 504 Offering in which we issued a total of 625,000 shares of our common stock to 6 shareholders for an aggregate offering price of $25,000. In January 1999, we sold to each of the following affiliated entities 1,000,000 of our common shares at a purchase price of the par value of $.0001 (aggregating $300): GSM Communications Inc., Atlas Equity Group, Inc. and the Farkas Group, Inc. In April, 1999, we completed another Regulation D, Rule 504 Offering in which we issued a total of 535,000 shares of our common stock to 28 stockholders for an aggregate offering price of $53,500. We have never utilized an underwriter for an offering of our securities. Other than the securities mentioned above, we have not issued or sold any securities. Item 11. Description of Securities. ----------------------------------- Qualification. The following statements constitute brief summaries of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, as amended.

Upon our liquidation or dissolution, each outstanding Common Share will be entitled to share equally in our assets legally available for distribution to shareholders after the payment of all debts and other liabilities. Dividend Rights. We do not have limitations or restrictions upon the rights of our Board of Directors to declare dividends, and we may pay dividends on our shares of stock in cash, property, or our own shares, except when we are insolvent or when the payment thereof would render us insolvent subject to the provisions of the Florida Statutes. We have not paid dividends to date, and we do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Voting Rights. Holders of our Common Shares are entitled to cast one vote for each share held of record at all shareholders meetings for all purposes. Other Rights. Common Shares are not redeemable, have no conversion rights and carry no preemptive or other rights to subscribe to or purchase additional Common Shares in the event of a subsequent offering. There are no other material rights of the common or preferred shareholders not included herein. There is no provision in our charter or by-laws that would delay, defer or prevent a change in control of us. We have not issued debt securities. Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. --------------------------------------------------- Our Articles of Incorporation provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, none of our directors or officers shall be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of any duty owed to us or our shareholders. In addition, we shall have the power, by our by-laws or in any resolution of our stockholders or directors, to undertake to indemnify the officers and directors of ours against any contingency or peril as may be determined to be in our best interest and in conjunction therewith, to procure, at our expense, policies of insurance. At this time, no statute or provision of the by-laws, any contract or other arrangement provides for insurance or indemnification of any of our controlling persons, directors or officers which would affect his or her liability in that capacity.

Miami, Florida We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Master Communications Corp. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 1998 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended and for the cumulative period May 5, 1997 (inception) to December 31, 1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit 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 the audit provides 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 Master Communications Corp. as of December 31, 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended and for the cumulative period May 5, 1997 (inception ) to December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

("the Company") was incorporated on May 5, 1997 under the laws of the State of Florida. The Company's operations have been devoted primarily to structuring and positioning itself to take advantage of opportunities available in the telecommunications industry. The Company intends to grow through internal development, strategic alliances and acquisitions of existing businesses. 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 as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. NOTE 2 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE OPERATIONS -------------------------------------- The Company's operations have been devoted primarily to raising capital for future operations and administrative functions. The ability of the Company to achieve its business objective is contingent upon its success in raising additional capital until adequate revenues are realized from operations.
