                    AMERICAN BUSINESS CORPORATION
                  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Basis of presentation

The interim financial statements included herein are presented in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America and have been prepared by the Registrant, without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC").  Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although
the Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.
The Registrant's operating results for the six and three months ended
June 30, 2006, and 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be or were expected for the years ended December 31, 2006,
and 2005.  It is suggested that these interim financial statements be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes
thereto of the Registrant included in its Form 10-KSB for the period
ended December 31, 2005.

Note 2 - Restatement

During 2005, the Company's management determined that previously
reported financial position and results of operations were materially
misstated as a result of an accounting error attributable to the
failure, since March 2002, to accrue interest, penalties and redemption
premium on the Company's defaulted notes payable and Series B, D and E
Preferred Stock. Management has analyzed and corrected the Company's
internal financial reporting system.  The following is a summary of the
affect of this restatement on the six and three months ended June 30,
2005:

In addition to the foregoing interest, effective December 31, 2005,
Midwest acquired the 6% Secured Convertible Note formerly owned by
Brentwood Capital Corp.  The amount including accrued interest due
under the note at December 31, 2005 is $2,199,669.80, which may be
converted into common stock at the rate of $0.01 per share.  If Midwest
converted that note into its common shares at December 31, 2005,
Midwest's ownership of the Company would increase to 82.6%.

In connection with its ongoing support of the Registrant's efforts to
reorganize, Midwest has advanced it an aggregate of $4,314,492 to fund
its activities through and including the end of this fiscal quarter.
At June 30, 2006, the aggregate indebtedness to Midwest was as follows:


        6% Secured Convertible Note                $2,232,665
        Working capital advances                    2,183,603
                                                    ---------
                                                   $4,416,268
                                                    =========

The Registrant intends to settle its aggregate obligations to Midwest
in the course of its planned reorganization with a profitable privately
owned business (see Note 6 and 7).

Note 3 - Per Share Results

The common share equivalents associated with the Registrant's issued
and outstanding convertible notes and Preferred Stock were not included
in computing per share results as their effects were anti-dilutive.

Note 4 - Income Taxes (Benefits)

At December 31, 2005, the Registrant had available approximately
$34,700,000 of net operating loss carry-forwards, which expire between
December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2021, that may be used to reduce
future taxable income.

Note 5 - Series B, D and E Preferred Stock

Pursuant to the provisions of their respective indentures, the Series
B, D and E Preferred Stock are entitled to receive a redemption
premium of 12% annually.  The provisions of the Series B, D and E
Preferred Stock also allow the holders to redeem their shares upon the
occurrence of certain events including the Registrant's inability to

                                   8


issue free trading common stock to such holders because the shares have
not been registered under the Securities Act.  During such periods of
non-compliance, the Series B, D and E Preferred indentures entitle
their holders to specified penalties.  As the effectiveness of a
registration statement under the Securities Act is outside of
Registrant's control, the Series B, D and E Preferred Stock, together
with accrued premium and penalties, have been classified on the
Registrant's balance sheet at December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2006, as a
liability.

Note 6 - Going Concern

The Registrant's condensed consolidated financial statements have been
presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates
the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Registrant had
negative working capital at June 30, 2006, of $(33,327,977). In
addition, the Registrant has incurred an accumulated deficit of
$(48,392,248) through June 30, 2006.  The Registrant is dependent upon
the efforts of Midwest to fund its continued survival. The Registrant's
ability to continue to receive this level of support from Midwest is
uncertain. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Registrant is
unable to continue as a going concern (see Note 7).

Note 7 - Subsequent Event

On August 29, 2006 the Company reported on Form 8-K that it had been
served, on August 28, 2006, with notice that three of its creditors
filed an Involuntary Petition for relief under Chapter 7 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code in the United States Court for the Western District of
Kentucky in Louisville, KY on August 23, 2006 (Case Number 06-32184).
The Company has 20 days from the date of service to examine the
veracity of the claims of the three petitioners, of which one is
Midwest, and respond to the Petition before the Bankruptcy Court.

On September 18, 2006 we responded to the Petition acknowledging that
we are indebted to the Petitioners. However, the Company has been
paying its creditors as agreed or is seeking and agreeable basis for
payment with the remaining creditors. To that extent, the Company has
requested the Bankruptcy Court supervision sought by the Petitioners be
pursuant to Chapter 11 instead of Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. We
plan to vigorously defend our plans to combine with a profitable,
privately owned business and have no reason to believe that Midwest's
participation in the involuntary petition precludes its continued
support of our efforts.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements regarding
the Registrant, its business, prospects and results of operations that
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties posed by many factors
and events that could cause the Registrant's actual business,
prospects and results of operations to differ materially from those
that may be anticipated by such forward-looking statements.  Factors
that may affect such forward-looking statements include, without
limitation, the Registrant's ability to resolve the affairs of its
creditors and other investors; or to locate and thereafter negotiate
and consummate a business combination with a profitable privately owned
company.

                                  9


When used in this discussion, words such as "believes," "anticipates,"
"expects," "intends," and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of
identifying forward-looking statements.  Readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date of this report.  The Registrant undertakes no
obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect
events or circumstances that may subsequently arise.  Readers are urged
to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in
this report and other reports filed with the SEC that attempt to advise
interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect the
Registrant's business.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 and 2005:

Revenue - As a direct result of the Registrant's inability to continue
its failing freight transportation services beyond November 2000, the
Registrant had no revenues during either the six months ended June 30,
2006 ("6M6") or the six months ended June 30, 2005 ("6M5").  The
Registrant continues working through the restructure of its debt and
the mitigation of outstanding claims and litigation.

Expenses and Income Taxes - Operating expenses for 6M6 were $1,430,628
compared to $1,480,605 (Restated) for 6M5.  This level of expenses is
consistent with the Registrant's strategy of redirecting its focus
toward becoming a candidate to acquire or merge with a profitable,
privately-held business operation.  Accordingly, the Registrant's
recurring administrative expenses include: (i) accrued interest on its
defaulted notes and accrued premium and penalties relating to its
Series B, D and E preferred stock, (ii) professional fees (legal and
accounting) and management fees associated with the resolution of the
Registrant's affairs with its former creditors and investors,
maintenance of reporting requirements and good standing, (iii)
ancillary expenses, and (iv) minimum franchise taxes.

Net Loss - As a result of the foregoing, the Registrant experienced a
net loss of $(1,430,628) for 6M6 compared to a net loss of $(1,480,605)
for 6M5 (Restated).  When related to the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during each period, per share results were a
net loss of $(0.02) for both periods.

Quarters Ended June 30, 2006 and 2005:

Revenue - As a direct result of the Registrant's inability to continue
its failing freight transportation services beyond November 2000, the
Registrant had no revenues during either the second quarter ended June
30, 2006 ("2Q6") or the second quarter ended June 30, 2005 ("2Q5").
The Registrant continues working through the restructure of its debt
and the mitigation of outstanding claims and litigation.

Expenses and Income Taxes - Operating expenses for 2Q6 were $714,792
compared to $754,969 (Restated) for 2Q5.  This level of expenses is
consistent with the Registrant's strategy of redirecting its focus
toward becoming a candidate to acquire or

                                10

merge with a profitable, privately-held business operation.
Accordingly, the Registrant's recurring administrative expenses
include: (i) accrued interest on its defaulted notes and accrued
premium and penalties relating to its Series B, D and E preferred
stock, (ii) professional fees (legal and accounting) and management
fees associated with the resolution of the Registrant's affairs with
its former creditors and investors, maintenance of its reporting
requirements, and good standing, (iii) other ancillary expenses, and
(iv) the payment of minimum franchise taxes.

Net Loss - As a result of the foregoing, the Registrant experienced a
net loss of $(714,792) for 2Q6 compared to a net loss of $(754,969) for
2Q5 (Restated).  When related to the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during each period, per share results were a net
loss of $(0.01) for both periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Registrant does not have any capital resources.  Consistent with
the inability to continue its failed freight transportation services
business beyond November 2000, and its subsequent disposition of its
remaining interest in that operation in connection with funding of the
GE Credit Corp. settlement in September 2002, the Registrant's
principal activity has been centered in resolving the claims of its
former creditors so it may seek a new business combination.  In this
connection, Midwest has agreed to provide Registrant with reasonable
legal, accounting and administrative resources to resolve its affairs
and conduct its search for a business combination candidate.

Accordingly, the Registrant is entirely dependent upon: (i) Midwest
providing the Registrant with certain advisory services in connection
with the resolution of its affairs on favorable terms; (ii) the
willingness of Midwest to provide the Registrant with certain office
and administrative facilities and to fund virtually all of the
Registrant's settlements with its creditors; and (iii) the Registrant's
successful implementation of a business combination with a profitable
operating company.  There can be no assurances that Midwest will be
successful in resolving all or substantially all of Registrant's
affairs, that it will fund any further settlements, or that the
combined efforts of Midwest and the Registrant will lead to a
successful business combination.

Nonetheless, Midwest has advanced the Registrant $4,416,268 at June 30,
2006, $101,776 of which evidences its continued support during 2Q6.

Item 3.	Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Registrant maintains controls and procedures designed to ensure
that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the
Registrant files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and

                                   11


procedures performed as of the end of the period covered by this
report, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial officers of the
Registrant concluded that the Registrant's disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as more further described in Rule 13a-15(c)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls

The Registrant made no significant changes in its internal controls or
in other factors that could significantly affect these controls
subsequent to the date of the evaluation of those controls by the Chief
Executive and Chief Financial officers.
