PART I.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Our History.
We started business as E Signs Plus.com, LLC, a Florida limited liability company on June 20, 2000.
We were engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling signage of all types. We were also in
the business of selling advertising space on the sides of trucks. We would rent space on the sides
of trucks and sell that space to other businesses that wished to advertise their products in that
manner (third party advertising). We also printed the advertising materials (graphics). At that
time we were purchasing truck side mounting systems from third parties to attach to the truck sides
in which to insert the graphics.
It soon became apparent that the third party advertising business would not be profitable if we had
to purchase mounting systems from third parties. In August of 2001, we began developing our own
proprietary truck side mounting systems for the display of graphics on the sides of trucks. We also
determined that there was another market for our mounting systems and graphics; businesses that
wished to advertise their products on their own fleet of trucks. At that time we decided to limit
our business to developing, manufacturing and marketing mobile billboard mounting systems which are
primarily mounted on trucks, to printing the graphics that are inserted into the mounting systems
and to third party advertising. On August 27, 2001, we changed E Signs Plus.coms name to GO!
AGENCY, LLC.
On January 28, 2002, we incorporated Sign Media Systems, Inc. in the State of Florida. GO! AGENCY
continued in the business of marketing its proprietary truck side mounting systems, the sale of
third party advertising and the printing and sale of graphics. Sign Media Systems engaged the
business of developing, manufacturing and marketing the mounting systems.
In December, 2002, we determined that it would be in our best interest to operate the truck side
mounting system, third party advertising and graphics business through one entity rather than two
entities. Therefore, effective January 1, 2003, GO! AGENCY contributed all of its assets to Sign
Media Systems, in exchange for Sign Media Systems common stock and Sign Media Systems became a
subsidiary of GO! AGENCY. GO! AGENCY owns 97% of our shares of common stock. At that time, GO!
AGENCY ceased conducting the truck side mounting system, third party advertising and graphics
business and all of those business activities are conducted through Sign Media Systems. Both GO!
AGENCY and Sign Media Systems are small business issuers as that term is defined in Section
228.10 of Regulation S-B promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Please refer to
Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part F/S hereof and to Item 7, Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions for more information concerning our relationship with GO!
AGENCY.
3
Antonio F. Uccello, III, is the manager and the 51% owner, the control person and promoter of GO!
Agency formerly known as E Signs Plus.com and, therefore, pursuant the terms of GO! Agencys
Operating Agreement, has the sole power, subject to his fiduciary duties to the other GO! Agency
members, to vote, or dispose of or direct the disposition of all the shares of Sign
On November 17, 2003, we entered into a merger agreement with American Powerhouse, Inc., a Delaware
corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Sign Media Systems Acquisition Company, Inc., a
Florida corporation. Pursuant to the merger agreement, we merged with Sign Media Systems
Acquisition Company. The merger was completed on December 8, 2003 with the filing of Articles of
Merger with the State of Florida at which time Sign Media Systems Acquisition ceased to exist and
we became the surviving corporation. Some time prior to the merger, American Powerhouse had
acquired certain technology for the manufacture of a water machine in the form of a water cooler
that manufactures water from ambient air. American Powerhouse was not engaged in the business of
manufacturing and distributing the water machine but was engaged in the licensing of that right to
others. Prior to the merger, American Powerhouse granted a license to Sign Media Systems
Acquisition to use that technology and to manufacture and sell the water machines. The acquisition
of this license was the business purpose of the merger. To date we have not used the license.
|
|
|
we have right to utilize certain proprietary technology for the manufacture, design, creation, sale or use of a water
cooler (Water Machine) which manufactures distilled water from ambient air; |
|
|
|
the term of the license is in perpetuity; |
|
|
|
the territory in which we are allowed to exploit the license is all countries in the world; |
|
|
|
the license in non-exclusive; and |
|
|
|
we do not have the right to sublicense the technology to others. |
As consideration for the merger, we issued 300,000 shares of our common stock to American
Powerhouse. The 300,000 shares of stock were valued at $1.50 per share based on recent private
sales of our stock. There were no other material costs of the merger. There were no other material
costs.
On October 16, 2007 the Company changed its name to International Consolidated Companies.

Chinese Acquisition:
On March 31, 2008, Grow Ease International Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered
into a share exchange agreement with Aim Sky Ltd., a British Virgin Islands corporation, to acquire
100% of the Common Stock of Aim Sky in exchange for 42,500 shares of Grow Eases series A Preferred
Shares. The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible into 42,500 common shares of Grow Ease upon
the happening of certain corporate events including a spin off or public offering of Aim Sky.
Additionally, the agreement obligated the Company to provide up to $2,000,000 in financing for the
acquired business. The financing never happened.
Aim Sky Ltd., is the owner of 100% of China Genetic Ltd, which in turn owns 57% of Shanghai Huaxin
High Biotechnology Inc., a Chinese company located in Shanghai, China, and has the right to vote
100%, and an option to purchase, the shares of Sichuan Kelun Bio-Tech Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a
Chinese company located in Chengdu, China.
This share exchange was accounted as an acquisition under purchase method of accounting. The
Company acquired net assets of $5,036,732 in the exchange. The fair value was reduced by the same
amount as a result of negative goodwill obtained in the purchase.
On September 30, 2008, International Consolidated Companies Inc., (the Company) has agreed with
China Gene Ltd, to rescind their previous agreement for Grow Ease International, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, to acquire Aim Sky Ltd, the owner of Chine Gene and its subsidiary
companies. The acquisition of Aim Sky Ltd, by Grow Ease has also been rescinded.
The Company and China Gene rescinded the agreement since the Company could not provide the
$2,000,000 of financing. The historical financial statements of ICCI have been presented removing
any activity of China Gene going back to March 31, 2008 due to the rescission.
Current Business
International Consolidated Companies Inc., (the Company) has purchased all the shares of Telestar
Acquisition Corporation, a Pennsylvania Corporation and Tele-Response Center, Inc., a Tennessee
Corporation (collectively hereinafter 121DR). Consideration was 20,000,000 (Twenty Million)
shares of the Companys common stock valued by agreement between the parties at $.075 per share.
Additionally, the Company has exchanged $1.15 Million of debt of 121DR for 2,500 shares of the
Companys newly designated Series B Preferred Shares. The closing occurred February 13, 2009.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The Company incurred a loss for the year ended December 31, 2008 and has had recurring losses for
years including and prior to December 31, 2007 and has an accumulated deficit account of
$7,843,316.
There is no guarantee whether the Company will be able to generate enough revenue and/or raise
capital to support those operations. This raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to
continue as a going concern.
Management states that they are confident that they can initiate new operations and raise the
appropriate funds to continue in its pursuit of a reverse merger or similar transaction.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.
These matters raise substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
On December 1, 2007, we entered into a lease as the lessee with Hawkeye Real Estate, LLC, a Florida
limited liability company and a related party, as lessor of 2,000 square feet of mixed office and
warehouse space and 5,000 square feet of outside storage space located at 2100 19th Street,
Sarasota, FL 34234 for a period of five years beginning December 1, 2007 and continuing until
November 30, 2012 for a fixed monthly rental of $2,500 per month.
Our executive offices and manufacturing facility are located at these premises. We believe the
premises are adequate for our purposes.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is not involved in any legal proceedings.

At the present time, there are no assets available for the payment of dividends. The Company does
not anticipate paying any dividends in the next twelve months.
The Articles of Incorporation currently authorize the issuance of 500,000,000 shares of common
stock, with no par value. The holders of the Shares: (a) have equal ratable rights to dividends
from funds legally available therefore, when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors of the
Company; (b) are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for
distribution upon winding up of the affairs of the Company; (c) do not have preemptive subscription
or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking funds applicable thereto; and (d) are
entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which shareholders may vote at all
meetings of shareholders. These securities do not have any of the following rights: (a) cumulative
or special voting rights; (b) preemptive rights to purchase in new issues of Shares; (c) preference
as to dividends or interest; (d) preference upon liquidation; or (e) any other special rights or
preferences. In addition, the Shares are not convertible into any other security. There are no
restrictions on dividends under any loans, other financing arrangements or otherwise. See a copy
of the Articles of Incorporation, and any amendment thereto, and Bylaws of the Company, attached as
Exhibits to the Companys previously filed SB-
As of December 31, 2008, the Company had 38,253,526 shares of common stock outstanding.
The total number of preferred shares which the corporation shall have the authority to issue
consists of One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock having no par value. The
company issued 1,000,000 shares.
Holders of the Class A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast 500 votes for each share held of
the Class A Preferred Stock on all matters presented to the shareholders of the Corporation for
shareholder vote which shall vote along with holders of the Corporations Common Stock on such
matters.
8
The Class A Preferred Stock may be redeemed only by separate written agreement by and between the
Holder and the Corporation.
Except as otherwise stated herein, there are no other rights, privileges, or preferences attendant
or relating to in any way the Class A Preferred Stock, including by way of illustration but not
limitation, those concerning dividend, ranking, conversion, other redemption, participation, or
anti-dilution rights or preferences.
Non-Cumulative Voting
The holders of Shares of Common Stock of the Company do not have cumulative voting rights, which
means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding Shares, voting for the election of
directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the
holders of the remaining Shares will not be able to elect any of the Companys directors.
Share Purchase Warrants
At December 31, 2008, no share purchase warrants were outstanding.
Share Purchase Option
At December 31, 2008, there were no share purchase options outstanding.
Dividends
The Company does not currently intend to pay cash dividends. The Companys proposed dividend
policy is to make distributions of its revenues to its stockholders when the Companys Board of
Directors deems such distributions appropriate. Because the Company does not intend to make cash
distributions, potential shareholders would need to sell their shares to realize a return on their
investment. There can be no assurances of the projected values of the shares, nor can there be any
guarantees of the success of the Company. A distribution of revenues will be made only when, in the
judgment of the Companys Board of Directors, it is in the best interest of the Companys
stockholders to do so. The Board of Directors will review, among other things, the investment
quality and marketability of the securities considered for distribution; the impact of a
distribution of securities on its customers, joint venture associates, management contracts, other
investors, financial institutions, and the companys internal management, plus the tax consequences
and the market effects of an initial or broader distribution of such securities.

Transfer Agent
The Company continues to retain the services of Florida Atlantic Stock Transfer, Inc., 7130 Nob
Hill Road, Tamarac, FL 33321, to act as transfer agent and registrar.

For the reported periods, cash flow from operating activities has not been sufficient to cover our
working capital requirements or to finance expansion of our sales and marketing activities. We have
utilized cash flows from financing activities to provide working capital and to expand sales and
marketing activities. Financing has been provided primarily by loans from related parties and from
the issuance of common stock. We do not have any institutional financing in place and do not
anticipate being able to arrange any institutional financing for the foreseeable future.
Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates
Our Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section
discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these
financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates
its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses,
financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and
judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the
carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most
significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include
estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not
readily apparent from other sources. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections
in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included
in this Annual Report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
International Consolidated Companies Inc
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of International Consolidated Companies, Inc. as of
December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity (deficit) and cash flows
for the year ended December 31, 2008. International Consolidated Companies, Inc.s management is responsible for these
financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to
perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the companys internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our 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 International Consolidated Companies, Inc. as of December 31, 2008, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that International Consolidated
Companies, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in the notes to the consolidated financial
statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and is in a working capital deficit position that
raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these
matters are also described in the notes. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

INTERNATIONAL CONSOLIDATED COMPANIES, INC.
(FORMELY KNOWN AS SIGN MEDIA SYSTEMS, INC.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007
NOTE
1- ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
International Consolidation Companies, Inc (the Company) was previously known as Sign Media
Systems Inc. The Company was incorporated on January 28, 2002 as a Florida corporation. Upon
incorporation, an officer of the Company contributed $5,000 and received 1,000 shares of
common stock of the Company. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company issued 7,959,000 shares
of common stock in exchange of $55,702 of net assets of Go! Agency, LLC, a Florida limited
liability company (Go Agency), a company formed on June 20, 2000, as E Signs Plus.com, LLC,
a Florida limited liability company. In this exchange, the Company assumed some debt of Go
Agency and the exchange qualified as a tax-free exchange under IRC Section 351.
Go Agency was formed to pursue third party truck side advertising. The principal of Go
Agency invested approximately $857,000 in Go Agency pursuing this business. It became
apparent that a more advanced truck side mounting system would be required and that third
party truck side advertising alone would not sustain an ongoing profitable business. Go
Agency determined to develop a technologically advanced mounting system and focused on a
different business plan. Go Agency pre-exchange transaction was a company under common
control of the major shareholder of SMS. Post-exchange transactions have not differed.
On November 17, 2003, the Company entered into a merger agreement by and among American Power
House, Inc., a Delaware corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Sign Media Systems
Acquisition Company, Inc., a Florida corporation and Sign Media Systems, Inc. Pursuant to
the merger agreement, Sign Media Systems merged with Sign Media Systems Acquisition Company
with Sign Media Systems being the surviving corporation. The merger was completed on
December 8, 2003, with the filing of Articles of Merger with the State of Florida at which
time Sign Media Systems Acquisition ceased to exist and Sign Media Systems became the
surviving corporation.
On March 31, 2008, Grow Ease International Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered
into a share exchange agreement with Aim Sky Ltd., a British Virgin Islands corporation, to acquire
100% of the Common Stock of Aim Sky in exchange for 42,500 shares of Grow Eases series A Preferred
Shares. The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible into 42,500 common shares of Grow Ease upon
the happening of certain corporate events including a spin off or public offering of Aim Sky.
Additionally, the agreement obligated the Company to provide up to $2,000,000 in financing for the
acquired business. The financing did not happen.

INTERNATIONAL CONSOLIDATED COMPANIES, INC.
(FORMELY KNOWN AS SIGN MEDIA SYSTEMS, INC.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007
NOTE 1- ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)
Aim Sky Ltd., is the owner of 100% of China Genetic Ltd, which in turn owns 57% of Shanghai
Huaxin High Biotechnology Inc., a Chinese company located in Shanghai, China, and has the
right to vote 100%, and an option to purchase, the shares of Sichuan Kelun Bio-Tech
Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a Chinese company located in Chengdu, China.
This share exchange was accounted as an acquisition under purchase method of accounting. The
Company acquired net assets of $5,036,732 in the exchange. The fair value was reduced by the
same amount as a result of negative goodwill obtained in the purchase.
On September 30, 2008, International Consolidated Companies Inc., (the Company) has agreed
with China Gene Ltd, to rescind their previous agreement for Grow Ease International, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to acquire Aim Sky Ltd, the owner of Chine Gene and
its subsidiary companies. The acquisition of Aim Sky Ltd, by Grow Ease has also been
rescinded.
The Company and China Gene rescinded the agreement since the Company could not provide the
$2,000,000 of financing. The historical financial statements of ICCI have been presented
removing any activity of China Gene going back to March 31, 2008 due to the rescission.
NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated unaudited financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007
NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue and Cost Recognition
There are four criteria that the Company must meet when determining when revenue is realized
or realizable and earned. The Company has persuasive evidence of an arrangement existing;
delivery has occurred or services rendered; the price is fixed or determinable; and
collectibility is reasonably assured.
Cost is recorded on the accrual basis as well, when the services are incurred rather than
when payment is made.
Provision for Bad Debt
Managements policy is to vigorously attempt to collect its receivables monthly. The Company
estimated the amount of the allowance necessary based on a review of the aged receivables
from the major customer. Management additionally instituted a policy for recording the
recovery of the allowance if any in the period where it is recovered.
Bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $ 875 and $ 382,525.

NOTE 2-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with
an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at several financial institutions that
are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are presented at face value, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
The allowance for doubtful accounts are established through provisions charged against income
and is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated bad debts
based on current economic conditions.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets.

Advertising
Costs of advertising and marketing are expensed as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs
were $ -0- and $ 8,925 for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the
immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007
NOTE 2-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes includes the tax effects of transactions reported in the
financial statements. Deferred taxes would be recognized for differences between the basis
for assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The major
difference relates to the net operating loss carry forwards generated by sustaining
deficits.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company provides the disclosure requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), and related
interpretations. Stock-based awards to non-employees are accounted for under the
provisions of SFAS 123 and has adopted the enhanced disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation- Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of SFAS
No. 123.
In December 2004, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) (FAS
123R), Share-Based Payment. FAS 123R replaces FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.
FAS 123R requires compensation expense related to share-based payment transactions, measured
as the fair value at the grant date, to be recognized in the financial statements over the
period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. The Company intends to
adopt FAS 123R using the modified prospective transition method, as defined in FAS 123R.
Under the modified prospective method, companies are required to record compensation cost
prospectively for the unvested portion, as of the date of adoption, of previously issued and
outstanding awards over the remaining vesting period of such awards. FAS 123R is effective
January 1, 2006. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on its
financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
The Company measures compensation expense for its employee stock-based compensation using
the intrinsic-value method. Under the intrinsic-value method of accounting for stock-based
compensation, when the exercise price of options granted to employees is less than the
estimated fair value of the underlying stock on the date of grant, deferred compensation
is recognized and is amortized to compensation expense over the applicable vesting period.
In each of the periods presented, the vesting period was the period in which the options
were granted. All options were expensed to compensation in the period granted rather than
the exercise date.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007
NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Stock-Based Compensation (Continued)
The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation
under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF)
Issue No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees
for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.
The fair value of the option issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more
reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the
value of the Companys common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the
counterparty has been reached or the counterpartys performance is complete. The fair value
of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and additional paid-in
capital.
Income (Loss) per Share of Common Stock
Historical net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted-average number
of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) include additional dilution
from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock
options and warrants. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be
antidilutive for the periods presented.
The following is a reconciliation of the computation for basic and diluted EPS:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 Fair Value Measurements, which provides a
definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires
expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods
within those fiscal years. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 is applied prospectively.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, which amends SFAS No. 87 Employers Accounting for
Pensions (SFAS No. 87), SFAS No. 88 Employers Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments
of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits (SFAS No. 88), SFAS No. 106
Employers Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions (SFAS No. 106), and
SFAS No. 132R Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits
(revised 2003) (SFAS No. 132R). This Statement requires companies to recognize an asset or
liability for the overfunded or underfunded status of their benefit plans in their financial
statements. SFAS No. 158 also requires the measurement date for plan assets and liabilities
to coincide with the sponsors year end. The standard provides two transition alternatives
related to the change in measurement date provisions. The recognition of an asset and
liability related to the funded status provision is effective for fiscal year ending after
December 15, 2006 and the change in measurement date provisions is effective for fiscal years
ending after December 15, 2008. This pronouncement has no effect on International
Consolidation Companies, Inc at this time.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets
and Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No.
159 permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be
measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses shall be reported on items for which the
fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No.
159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is
permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007,
provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157 Fair Value
Measurements (SFAS No. 157).
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (SFAS No. 162). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and
the framework for selecting principles used in the preparation of financial statements. SFAS
No. 162 is effective 60 days following the SECs approval of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity
with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The effective date of SFAS No. 162 has not
yet been determined. The implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on
the Financial Statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 132(R)-1, Employers Disclosures about
Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets . FSP FAS 132(R)-1 requires more detailed disclosures
about employers plan assets in a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan,
including employers investment strategies, major categories of plan assets, concentrations
of risk within plan assets, and inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair
value of plan assets. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 also requires, for fair value measurements using
significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), disclosure of the effect of the measurements on
changes in plan assets for the period. The disclosures about plan assets required by FSP FAS
132(R)-1 must be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. As this
pronouncement is only disclosure-related, it will not have an impact on the financial
position and results of operations but will affect the disclosures within our financial
statements.

party. At June 28, 2005, Antonio F. Uccello, III, was, and is now the President,

is for a period of five years with interest accruing on the unpaid balance at 5.3% per
annum payable annually, with the entire principle and unpaid interest due and payable
in full on June 28, 2010.
There was no prepayment penalty. The purpose of the loan was to obtain a higher
interest rate than is currently available at traditional banking institutions. Olympus
Leasings primary business is making secured loans to chiropractic physicians
throughout the United States for the purchase of chiropractic adjustment tables. The
loans are generally for less than $3,000 each and are secured by a first lien on each
chiropractic adjustment table. The chiropractic physician personally guarantees each
loan. The rate of return on the Olympus Leasing loans is between 15% and 25% per annum.
The remaining balance that was due from related party on the balance sheet was
$616,527 including interest on December 31,
2007. In 2008, the amount of $612,002 was forgiven at December 31, 2008.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There have been no disagreements of any kind with the Companys Independent Auditors.
ITEM 9AT. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over
financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.
Our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting includes using the COSO framework,
an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, to identify the risks and control
objectives related to the evaluation of our control environment. The internal controls for
the Company are provided by executive managements review and approval of all transactions.
Based on the current internal controls employed by the Company, the Company concludes that, as
of December 31, 2008, a material weakness exists in the Companys internal control procedures,
in that one individual who, as an officer and director of the Company, has sole access and
authority to receive cash and make cash disbursements.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the companys registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was
not subject to attestation requirements by the companys registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company
to provide only managements report in this annual report.
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting
There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the
period covered by this report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
