NOTE 1: NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Visual Data Corporation (The "Company" or "Visual Data" or "VDAT"), organized in 1993, is a full service broadband media company that specializes in providing webcasting services for corporate, education and government customers, networking solutions for the entertainment and advertising industries and marketing solutions for the travel industry.

The Visual Data Webcasting Group provides an array of corporate-oriented web-based media services to the corporate market including live audio and video webcasting, packaged corporate announcements, and rich media information storage and distribution for any business entity. The Webcasting Group generates revenues through production and distribution fees.

Visual Data's Networking Solutions Group, which is comprised of our EDNET subsidiary, provides connectivity within the entertainment and advertising industries through its private network, which encompasses production and post-production companies, advertisers, producers, directors, and talent.

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003

NOTE 1: NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Nature of Business (Continued)

On October 22, 2003 Visual Data Corporation executed an agreement and plan of merger agreement with privately held Onstream Media Corporation to acquire the remaining 72% of Onstream Media not currently owned by Visual Data (See Notes 2 and 7). Under the terms of the agreement, each common share of Onstream Media (other than shares owned by Visual Data) shall be converted into the right to receive .1481 restricted common shares of Visual Data common stock. It is estimated that at the time of the merger Visual Data will issue approximately 2 million shares of restricted common stock to acquire the remaining interest in Onstream Media.

The closing of the merger is subject to various conditions, including approval by Visual Data and Onstream Media shareholders, as well as the completion by Visual Data of a financing for a minimum of $6.5 million. Jesup & Lamont Securities Corporation has issued a fairness opinion regarding this transaction to the board of directors of Visual Data.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since its inception, and has an accumulated deficit of $56,069,222 as of December 31, 2003. The Company's operations have been financed primarily through the issuance of equity and debt. The Company may be required to seek additional capital to continue operations. As a result, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. For the three months ended December 31, 2003, we had a net loss of $486,940 and cash used in operations of $368,952. At December 31, 2003, we had a total of $1,227,144 of cash and cash equivalents, which includes $1,004,313 of restricted cash provided as a result of the financing of long-term debt from a shareholder (See Note 3).

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003

NOTE 1: NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Liquidity and Going Concern (Continued)

We are constantly evaluating our cash needs and existing burn rate. In addition, we have a plan whereby certain non-essential personnel and administrative costs will continue to be reduced so that we may continue to meet operating and financing obligations as they come due. Based upon an ongoing evaluation of our cash needs, we may seek to raise additional capital through the sale of equity and debt securities to provide funding for ongoing future operations. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in obtaining additional capital, or that such capital will be available on terms acceptable to us. Our ability to grow revenues, achieve cost savings or raise sufficient additional capital will be necessary to service our existing indebtedness. In addition, our ability to refinance existing indebtedness is subject to future economic conditions, market conditions, business conditions and other factors. We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise additional working capital to fund these anticipated deficits. Further, there can be no assurance that even if such additional capital is obtained or the planned cost reductions are implemented, that we will achieve profitability or positive cash flow. The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to raise capital and to market and sell our services successfully. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Visual Data Corporation and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments where its ownership is between 20% and 50%.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, 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. Estimates are used when accounting for allowances for doubtful accounts, revenue reserves, inventory reserves, depreciation and amortization, taxes, contingencies and impairment allowances. Such estimates are reviewed on an on-going basis and actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Our Webcasting Group recognizes revenue from live and on-demand webcasts at the time an event is accessible for streaming over the Internet. Revenue is recognized from the sale of equipment when the equipment is shipped. For customer service projects, revenue is recognized when service is performed. A significant component of our Network Solutions Group's revenue relates to the sale of equipment, which is recognized when the equipment is installed or upon signing of a contract after a free trial period. Our Network Solutions Group recognizes revenues from equipment installation and bridging when service is performed. Network usage revenue is recognized based on customers' monthly usage. Our Network Solutions Group leases some equipment to customers under terms that are accounted for as operating leases. Rental revenue from leases is recognized ratably over the life of the lease and the related equipment is depreciated over its estimated useful life. All leases of the related equipment contain fixed terms. Our Travel Group libraries recognize production revenue at the time of completion of video production services. Per hit charges are recognized when users watch a video on the Internet. Fixed monthly fees are recognized on a monthly basis consistent with the terms of the contracts. Commissions on bookings are recognized when the stays are completed. Revenues from recurring service are recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement between the Company and the customer exists, (ii) service has been provided to the Customer, (iii) the price to the Customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectibility of the sales prices is reasonably assured.

Comprehensive Income or Loss

The Company has no components of other comprehensive income or loss, and accordingly, net loss equals comprehensive loss for all periods presented

Reverse Stock Split

On June 24, 2003, the Company affected a one-for-fifteen reverse stock split. All references in the consolidated financial statements referring to shares, share prices, per share amounts and stock plans have been adjusted retroactively for the one-for-fifteen reverse stock split.

Earnings Per Share

For the periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Since the effect of common stock equivalents was anti-dilutive, all such equivalents were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share. The total outstanding options and warrants, which have been excluded from the calculation of loss per share, were 1,011,519 and 971,317 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In addition, the Company has 232,750 shares of Class A-8 and 20,000 shares of Class A-9 Convertible Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2003. The potential dilutive effects of the Class A-8 and A-9 Convertible Preferred Stock have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share.

Stock Compensation

The Company has a stock based compensation plan. The Company has elected to continue using Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," in accounting for employee stock options.

The following table summarizes the pro forma consolidated results of operations of the Company as though the fair value based accounting method in "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," ("SFAS 123") had been used in accounting for stock options.

NOTE 2: INVESTMENTS

On March 31, 2003, the Company increased its $200,000 investment in Onstream Media by an additional $750,000 through the issuance of Class A-7 Convertible Preferred Stock. Our board of directors appointed Randy Selman and Alan Saperstein to represent the Company on the board of directors of Onstream Media. There are currently 4 board members on the Onstream Media board of directors. Onstream Media is a development stage company that intends to provide a desktop solution for corporations to better manage their digital rich media without the major capital expense for the hardware, software and additional staff necessary to build their own digital asset management solution. The Onstream system is being designed to digitize, encode, index, transport and centralize all rich media content within an organization and make it immediately available worldwide, with the expectation that it will save companies valuable time and money. The system is being designed and managed by SAIC, a large IT security firm, providing services to all branches of the federal government as well as the worlds' leading corporations. Beginning April 1, 2003, the Company's investment is accounted for under the equity method. The carrying value of this investment is periodically evaluated by the Company to determine if any impairment has occurred based upon a review of budgeted amounts compared with actual results. For the three months ended December 31, 2003, included in other income and expense is a loss of approximately $34,000, which represents approximately 28% of the loss from Onstream Media for the three months ended December 31, 2003. These investments are included in the caption entitled other non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Also, included in the Company's accounts receivable total is approximately $137,000 owed by Onstream Media to the Company for advances to pay various operating expenses.

NOTE 3: NOTES PAYABLE

The Company has a long-term note of $3,000,000 to one of the Company's major shareholder, which is collateralized by all of the assets of the Company. As compensation for this transaction, the Company issued this shareholder 140,000 shares of Class A-8 Convertible Preferred Stock ("Class A-8 Preferred Stock"). The stated value of the Class A-8 is $6 per share. The Class A-8 Preferred Stock is zero coupon and each share converts to 1.33333 shares of common stock (at $4.50 per share). The value of the Class A-8 Preferred Stock of $840,000 was recorded as a discount to the note. In accordance with APB 21, the unamortized transaction costs from the original obligation and the discount from the refinancing have been recorded in the balance sheet as a reduction to the obligation. The transaction fees paid on the refinancing of approximately $164,000 were expensed as incurred. The original obligation transaction costs and the discount (collectively "net discount ") that have been capitalized as a reduction to the obligation on the balance sheet and are being amortized over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. At September 30, 2003, the Company has approximately $749,000 of net discount netted from Note Payable. In addition, the note bears interest at 5.25%, payable quarterly, beginning July 15, 2003. The loan is a 36-month loan, with interest only payments on a quarterly basis, and a balloon payment on May 6, 2006. If the company receives financing in excess of $2,000,000, 35% of the net amount in excess of $2,000,000 will be used to pay down the principal of the Note. In addition, if the Company has positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), then 35% of the positive EBITDA will be used to pay down the principal of the Note. $1,000,000 of this loan was deposited into a cash account, which is restricted and is to be utilized only at the shareholder's discretion. In addition, the shareholder converted his outstanding common stock in the Company, approximately 123,667 shares, into 92,750 shares of Class A-8 Preferred Stock.

NOTE 5: STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS (Continued)

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Sholes model with the following assumptions: expected volatility of 158.0%, risk-free interest rate of 6.25%, expected dividends of $0 and expected term is the full term of the option ranging from 1 to 8 years.

The Company has granted options to management, employees, directors and consultants that are outside of the Plan. For the three months ended December 31, 2003, the Company did not grant any options to consultants. At December 31, 2003 the Company had 140,801 granted options to consultants outstanding. These options have been accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," ("SFAS 123"). The Company has recognized approximately $104,000 and $127,000 in expense for consultant options during the three months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

At December 31, 2003, there were vested warrants to purchase an aggregate of 434,706 shares of common stock outstanding, inclusive of the warrants issued to lender discussed in Note 3. The warrants contain exercise prices ranging from $2.65 to $247.50 expiring from May 2004 to October 2007. During the three months ended December 31, 2003 the Company granted 82,300 warrants at an exercise price of $3.00 in conjunction with 411,500 shares of common stock sold in a private placement offering. (See Note 6).

NOTE 6: EQUITY

In October 2003 Visual Data executed a redemption agreement with Palladin Opportunity Fund, L.L.C. and Halifax Fund, L.P. (collectively as "Palladin") with respect to a 6% convertible debenture due December 8, 2003 and a 6% convertible debenture due May 24, 2004 held by Palladin. Under the terms of the redemption agreement, Visual Data redeemed a portion of the 6% convertible debentures for approximately $610,000 in cash and Palladin converted the balance of the debentures into an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Visual Data's common stock. These shares were valued at $2.50 per share, or an aggregate of $750,000, on the date of the transaction and resulted in a net gain, included in other income (expense) of approximately $185,000. These shares have previously been registered by Visual Data under Section 12(g) of the Securities Act of 1933.

NOTE 6: EQUITY (Continued)

In October 2003, Visual Data raised approximately $864,000 in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on Section 4(2) of said act and Rule 506 of Regulation D. In this private placement, Visual Data sold 411,500 shares of its common stock and four year common stock purchase warrants exercisable into an aggregate of 82,300 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.00 per share to a group of 17 accredited investors. In connection with this private placement, the Company issued 53,495 shares of common stock for commissions and finders fees totaling approximately $112,000. These fees are included as a reduction in additional paid-in capital as a cost of raising equity financing. Visual Data granted the purchasers registration rights covering the shares, including the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The proceeds from this private placement were used to facilitate the cash portion of the 6% convertible debenture redemption agreement disclosed above, with the balance to be used as general working capital.

In October 2003, a holder of 25,000 shares of Class A-8 Preferred Stock converted those shares to 33,334 shares of common stock. The Class A-8 Preferred Stock had a stated value of $6.00 per share, or an aggregate of $150,000. Pursuant to the designations of the Class A-8 Preferred Stock, the total value was converted into common stock at a conversion price of $4.50.

In October 2003, the Company issued 64,000 shares of common stock to settle approximately $154,000 of certain liabilities with various vendors. Included in the 64,000 shares of common stock were 34,000 shares of common stock provided to vendors of Onstream Media to settle approximately $82,000 of obligations. Any difference between the value of the stock on the settlement date and the obligation as reflected in the Company's records is recorded as other income and expense in the accompanying financial statements.

During the three months ended December 31, 2003, the Company issued 10,833 shares of Common Stock for consulting and financial advisory services. Their services are being provided over periods ranging from 1 to 3 months, and will result in an expense of approximately $23,000.

During the three months ended December 31, 2003 the company declared and paid cash dividends of $6,154 on the Class A-9 Preferred Stock.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 10, 2004, the Company sold 25,000 shares of its Class A-11 non-voting redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and three-year warrants to purchase 130,000 shares of its common stock for $500,000 in a private offering. The three-year warrants are exercisable at 105% of the Company's common stock average closing bid price for the five trading days prior to February 10, 2004 or $2.28. As additional consideration for this offering, the Company paid to the purchaser an origination fee equal to 32,500 shares of restricted common stock. The Company shall also deliver an additional 52,500 shares of restricted common stock in lieu of dividend payments over the initial 18-month term ("prepaid period") upon closing. The holders of the Class A-11 Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 14% based on the stated value of $20.00 per share, payable monthly beginning after the prepaid period. Following the prepaid period, the Company has the right to redeem the preferred stock for the stated value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. Each share of Class A-11 convertible preferred stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time after the date of issuance of such shares determined by dividing the liquidation amount (stated value or $500,000) by the conversion price then in effect at the time of conversion. The conversion price per share shall initially be $2.00 ("Initial Conversion Price"), subject to certain adjustments as stipulated in the Company's amended Articles of Incorporation. The Initial Conversion Price shall be reset at the fair market value of the Company's common stock at the effective date of the registration of the shares of common stock underlying the Class A-11 Preferred Stock. The fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock shall be reset to the average closing bid price per share for the 10 trading days immediately preceding the effective date of the registration, provided in no event shall the fair market value be below $1.75 per common share nor shall it be greater than $2.00 per common share. $400,000 of the proceeds from this financing were used to acquire certain assets and license certain software from Virage, Inc. See information below.

On February 11, 2004, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement ("Asset Purchase Agreement") and a license agreement ("Custom License Agreement") whereby the Company acquired certain assets and licensed certain software (collectively, the "Assets") from Virage, Inc. ("Virage"). The consideration is as follows: (i) $400,000 cash upon closing; and (ii) the issuance of a convertible secured note payable of $206,250 ("Secured Promissory Note"). The outstanding principal amount is due and payable upon the earlier of (i) May 11, 2004 (90 days following the date of closing) or (ii) the closing of any debt or equity financing of at least $2,000,000 by the Company. The Company promised to pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of this promissory note beginning on May 12, 2004 and until such principal sum and any interest accrued thereon is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to ten percent (10%). If the Company has not concluded a financing of at least $2,000,000 or has not satisfied the Secured Promissory Note by May 11, 2004, the Company would be in default under the Secured Promissory Note and both the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Custom License Agreement can be terminated at the discretion of Virage, and the Assets will be transferred back to Virage and the Secured Promissory Note will be cancelled. If the Company has concluded a financing of at least $2,000,000 by May 11, 2004 but has not satisfied the Secured Promissory Note, the Company would be in breach of the Secured Promissory Note, the Assets would be transferred back to Virage and the Company would still be obligated to satisfy the Secured Promissory Note. In addition, upon a breach of the Secured Promissory Note, Virage may convert any principal and unpaid accrued interest due under the Secured Promissory

20


Table of Contents

Note into shares of the Company's common stock. The number of conversion shares to be issued would be determined by dividing the outstanding principal amount of the Secured Promissory Note and any unpaid accrued interest by the conversion of price of $2.00 per common share of the Company's common stock. The Company has determined that the acquisition is not considered a "significant" transaction under Regulation S-B.

In a separate transaction, on February 11, 2004 the Company guaranteed ("Guaranty") a Promissory Note (the "Note") in the principal amount of $1,406,250 for Onstream Media Corporation ("Onstream Media"), of which the Company owns 28%, in favor of Virage, Inc. for the licensing of certain software ("Software") by Onstream Media. The principal is due and payable upon the earlier of (i) May 11, 2004 or (ii) the closing of any debt or equity financing by the Company of at least $2,000,000 (the "Maturity Date"). If the Company has not concluded a financing of at least $2,000,000 or Onstream Media has not satisfied the Note by May 11, 2004, the Onstream Media would be in default under the Note and the Software Agreement can be terminated at the discretion of Virage and the Note will be cancelled. If the Company has concluded a financing of at least $2,000,000 by May 11, 2004 but Onstream Media has not satisfied the Note, the Company would be in breach of the Guaranty, the Software would be transferred back to Virage and Onstream Media and the Company would still be obligated to satisfy the Note. In addition, upon a breach of the Guaranty, Virage may convert any principal and unpaid accrued interest due under the Note into shares of the Company's common stock. The number of conversion shares to be issued would be determined by dividing the outstanding principal amount of the Note and any unpaid accrued interest by the conversion of price of $2.00 per common share of the Company's common stock. Onstream promised to pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of this promissory note beginning on May 12, 2004 and until such principal sum and any interest accrued thereon is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to ten percent.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

GENERAL

Our net loss has reduced significantly for this quarter as compared to last year. Our overall strategy for the past year was to reduce costs, including consolidating operations, eliminating duplication without compromising necessary redundancy for backup systems, while insuring the attainment of adequate gross margins. For some of our products and services we have experienced competitive market pressures that caused us to reduce our prices.

We moved the operations of the New York webcasting operating facility to our Pompano Beach facility resulting in cost savings in the first quarter of 2002. We reduced headcount and either closed or reduced the size of our facilities. We negotiated favorable settlements with our lenders and creditors in order to conserve cash.

In January 2004, our largest customer, CCBN, announced it had signed a definitive agreement under which The Thomson Corporation, parent company of our second largest customer Thomson Financial Group, will acquire CCBN. Although the Company's management currently does not anticipate that this acquisition will have a material adverse affect on current operations, it it may make the Company reliant on one customer for a large portion of its webcasting revenues.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our consolidated net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2003 was approximately $487,000 ($.12 per share) as compared to approximately $1,174,000 ($.56 per share) for the same period in 2002, a decrease of approximately $687,000 (59%) . Included in our results for 2003 is a gain from the redemption of the convertible debenture of approximately $185,000 and a cash settlement of approximately $103,000 from a contract with a vendor from the Company's Travel Group. We also settled certain liabilities with various vendors in the quarter ended December 31, 2003 and recognized a net gain of approximately $82,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

REVENUE

Consolidated operating revenue decreased approximately $225,000 (12%) primarily from reduced revenues from our Network Solutions Group. Revenues from network equipment sales and rentals decreased approximately $74,000 (35%) due to the expiration of recurring rental agreements from the prior 2002 period. Revenues from network usage and services decreased approximately $43,000 (7%) as a result of our transition of several of our customers' circuits from our control to theirs. Revenues from the Webcasting Group decreased approximately $39,000 (4%) as a result of competition. The number of webcasts produced decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2003 compared to the comparable period in the prior year. This decrease was partially off-set by up-selling basic on-demand audio only conference calls with higher end products. Revenues from the Travel Group decreased approximately $68,000 as a result of fewer new customer vignettes produced. As part of our overall strategy to become cash flow positive, we decided to lower expenses and reduce the staff to essential employees. We do not anticipate an increase in revenues in the Travel Group during fiscal 2004.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Consolidated operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2003 decreased approximately $480,000 (17%), primarily from reduced depreciation, reduced webcasting costs and reduced compensation costs. Webcasting costs decreased approximately $106,000 (30%) as a result of reduced streaming costs. We closed our New York network facility during the first quarter of 2002 and moved the operations to our Pompano Beach facility. Cost of revenue from the network equipment sales and rentals decreased approximately $18,000 (19%) due to fewer sales from our tightening of credit policies. Cost of revenue from network usage decreased approximately $11,000 (4%) as a result of reduced revenues.

Compensation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2003 decreased approximately $100,000 or (10%) due to adopted cost containment measures. These cost containment measures resulted in reductions to the overall number of employees. Professional fees decreased approximately $26,000 (12%) due to reduced legal, option and warrant expense. Other administrative expenses decreased approximately $25,000 (7%) due to reduced costs incurred as a result of cost containment measures adopted. In order to further reduce costs and redundant operations, we also reduced our facilities space during January 2003. These reductions did not negatively impact our competitive ability nor impact our future operations. Sales and marketing costs were limited intentionally as a result of measures to conserve cash. Depreciation and amortization decreased approximately $183,000 (33%) due to assets in service becoming fully depreciated.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Other income (expense) includes interest income and expense and other income from gains and settlements. We had reduced interest expense by $98,000 (43%) , as a result of the settlement of the 6% convertible debentures as well as more favorable terms renegotiated on our long-term debt. Other income increased $332,000 as a result of settlements with creditors on existing obligations and other contracts and as a result of a payment from a customer of our Travel Group in satisfaction of the customer's contractual obligations. These gains were offset by our portion of the losses incurred in our investment in Onstream Media.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had a working capital surplus at December 31, 2003 of approximately $1,418,000 , an increase of approximately $1,736,000 from a working capital deficit of approximately $318,000 as of September 30, 2003. The increase in working capital was primarily attributable to the redemption of the convertible debentures, which resulted in a gain of approximately $185,000. Cash used in operating activities was approximately $369,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2003. Our net loss of approximately $487,000 is reduced by non-cash items of depreciation and amortization amounting to approximately $366,000, amortization of deferred services satisfied by issuing stock of approximately $104,000 and the amortization of discount on notes payable of approximately $72,000 , also paid with stock. These non-cash costs are partially offset by approximately $267,000 from the gain from settlements of obligations. Primary sources of cash inflows from operations are from receivables collected from sales to customers. Future cash inflows from sales are subject to our pricing and ability to procure business at existing market conditions.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $35,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2003 as compared to approximately $23,000 for the same period last year, primarily due to purchases of property and equipment.

Cash flows provided by financing activities were approximately $544,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2003 as compared to 406,000 for the same period last year. Principal sources of cash for the three months ended December 31, 2003 were net proceeds from the issuance of common stock of approximately $863,000 and the collection of the subscription receivable of $300,000 in connection with an offering of preferred stock. The increase was offset by the payment of the convertible debentures of approximately $609,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

At December 31, 2003, we have approximately $223,000 of unrestricted cash. We also have approximately $1,004,000 of cash held in escrow to be drawn upon as needed with the approval of the lender. We do not presently have any commitment for capital expenditures. Based upon our current operations and anticipated acquisitions, we will need to raise additional capital through debt or equity to provide for our operations for the next 12 months. Our ability to grow revenues, achieve cost savings or raise sufficient additional capital will be necessary to service our existing indebtedness. In addition, our ability to refinance existing indebtedness is subject to future economic conditions, market conditions, business and other factors. We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise additional working capital to fund these anticipated deficits. If we are unable to significantly increase our revenues or raise working capital when needed to fund ongoing losses, the viability of our future operations may be in question.

We are constantly evaluating our cash needs and existing burn rate. In addition, we have a plan whereby certain non-essential personnel and administrative costs will continue to be reduced so that we may continue to meet operating and financing obligations as they come due. Based upon an ongoing evaluation of our cash needs, we will seek to raise additional capital through the sale of equity and debt securities to provide funding for ongoing future operations. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in obtaining additional capital, or that such capital will be available on terms acceptable to us. Further, there can be no assurance that even if such additional capital is obtained or the planned cost reductions are implemented, that we will achieve profitability or positive cash flow or be able to continue as a business.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

On February 11, 2004 the Company guaranteed ("Guaranty") a Promissory Note (the "Note") in the principal amount of $1,406,250 for Onstream Media Corporation ("Onstream Media"). The principal is due and payable upon the earlier of (i) May 11, 2004 or (ii) the closing of any debt or equity financing by the Company of at least $2,000,000 (the "Maturity Date"). If the Company has not concluded a financing of at least $2,000,000 or Onstream Media has not satisfied the Note by May 11, 2004, the Onstream Media would be in default under the Note and the Software Agreement can be terminated at the discretion of Virage and the Note will be cancelled. If the Company has concluded a financing of at least $2,000,000 by May 11, 2004 but Onstream Media has not satisfied the Note, the Company would be in breach of the Guaranty, the Software would be transferred back to Virage and Onstream Media and the Company would still be obligated to satisfy the Note. In addition, upon a breach of the Guaranty, Virage may convert any principal and unpaid accrued interest due under the Note into shares of the Company's common stock. The number of conversion shares to be issued would be determined by dividing the outstanding principal amount of the Note and any unpaid accrued interest by the conversion of price of $2.00 per common share of the Company's common stock. Onstream promised to pay interest on the outstanding

principal amount of this promissory note beginning on May 12, 2004 and until such principal sum and any interest accrued thereon is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to ten percent.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States GAAP. The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Our assumptions are based on historical experiences and changes in the business environment. However, actual results may differ from estimates under different conditions, sometimes materially. Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those that are both most important to the management's most subjective judgments. The Company's most critical accounting policies and estimates are described as follows.

As of December 31, 2003 we had approximately $3,900,000 of intangible assets, net of amortization. In accordance with GAAP, the company periodically tests these assets for potential impairment. As part of our testing, we rely on both historical operating performance as well as anticipated future operating performance of the entities that have generated these intangibles. Factors that could indicate potential impairment include a significant change in projected operating results and cash flow, a new technology developed and other external market factors that may affect our customer base. We will continue to monitor our intangible assets and our overall business environment.

There have been no significant changes made in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date.
