Companies Inc. (OTCBB:TAUR) ("Taurus") announced the acquisition of
all of the issued and outstanding shares of Bluestar Physical Therapy
Inc. ("Bluestar") in exchange for 9,650,000 shares of common stock of

related to all of Taurus' businesses as they existed immediately prior

common stock of Taurus held by Rick's and $20,000 cash. As a result of
this transaction, Taurus will no longer be involved in the adult
entertainment business.

Taurus related to all of Taurus' businesses as they existed
immediately prior to the acquisition of Bluestar under an
