ITEM 1.BUSINESS
Assurance Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "AGI") was originally incorporated in the State of Florida on July 10, 1997 as August Project II Corp. On June 13, 2000, the Company name was changed to Traffic Engine.com Inc. On January 2, 2001 Traffic Engine.com executed an agreement for the exchange of Common Share with Traffic Engine Inc., which became a wholly owned subsidiary of the parent. On March 29, 2001 the Company merged with Syndeos Corporation (f.k.a. Premier Plus Inc. a Florida Corporation). The Company changed its name to reflect majority ownership by the principles to Syndeos Group. Prior to its merger to become Syndeos Group, the Company was created to be a technology holding company with the purpose of identifying and acquiring emerging technology. The Company changed its name again to Air Media Now!, Inc on April 1, 2002 and owns two wholly owned subsidiaries Nortex Associates Inc and Syndeos Corporation. The Company changed it name to Assurance Group, Inc. on January 10, 2008.
History of the Company:
The Company was a Cellular to Wireless Broad Band Channel Master. The Company created and delivered the leading Wireless Collaborative Platform that enabled Cellular subscribers and organizations to effectively connect, synchronize data, optimize business processes and manage ongoing relationships with broadband wireless access while providing real-time intelligence on critical business information. The Company was uniquely positioned to bridge two converging marketplaces: Cellular and Internet Infrastructure/Enterprises. The Company did this through its exclusive license to resell globally patented device and software solutions.
On June 20, 2002 Mr. Barney A. Richmond acquired just over 39 millions shares of the Company, becoming its majority shareholder.
On June 28, 2002 the Board of Directors for the Company met and voted to remove all officers of the Corporations with the following officers of the Corporation, Barney A. Richmond (Chief Executive Officer) and Harry Timmons (President) elected to serve until the next annual meeting of the Board of Directors and until their successors are elected and qualified or until their resignation or removal pursuant to the bylaws of the Corporation.
During the last quarter of 2002 the Management of the Company made a decision to cease operations of the Company. This was due to the fact that new current management had no experience in the Wireless Telecom industry. On February 28, 2005 a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company was held. A motion was passed to elect Barney Richmond as Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Director and to elect Richard Turner as Treasurer and Director. The Company now is seeking acquisition of a Company which management has prior experience in. Currently, there are several acquisition opportunities that Management is evaluating. The success of the Company's proposed plan of operation will depend primarily on the success of the acquired company's business operations and the realization of the business' perceived potential. The funding of this proposed plan will require significant capital. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful or profitable if the Company is unable to raise the funds to provide this capital, or to otherwise locate the required capital for the operations of the business. If, for any reason, the Company does not meet the qualifications for listing on a major stock exchange, the Company's securities may be traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market. The OTC market differs from national and regional stock exchanges in that it (1) is not sited in a single location but operates through communication of bids; offers and confirmations between broker-dealers and (2) securities admitted to quotation are offered by one or more broker-dealers rather than the "specialist" common to stock exchanges.

ITEM 1.BUSINESS - CONTINUED
The Company got behind with its required SEC filings due to the fact the Company's auditors, Wieseneck & Andres, P.A., had advised management their CPA practice was merging with another firm. Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. was and has been the auditor for all of the above described subsidiary companies as well as eCom eCom.com, Inc. and American Capital Holdings, Inc. ("ACH") for many years. Also, management was advised in late December, 2007 by Mr. Thomas B. Andres, CPA that he and his firm had accounting issues with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") regarding an American Capital Holdings, Inc. ("ACH") audit dating back to 2004. Mr. Andres advised us of his situation on or about December 16, 2007. Prior to that date, management did not know about any communications from the PCAOB. Appended herein as Exhibit No. 99.1 is a copy of PCAOB Release No. 104-2005-117, which was issued on October 27, 2005. Management was totally caught off guard as this issue was not disclosed to us for over two (2+) plus years either by Mr. Andres or by the PCAOB.
To further add to management's confusion regarding a 2004 audit, there were no comments by the SEC examiners regarding ACH's Form 10SB12G dated May 24, 2004 submitted to the SEC. This May 24, 2004 filing was ruled effective by law on July 24, 2004. This Form 10SB12G included a nine (9) month ACH audit by Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. for the period ending February 29, 2004. Additionally, pursuant to the request of SEC Examiners, on January 11, 2005, ACH filed an Amended Form 10SB12G with the SEC. This Amended Form 10SB12 included a Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. audit dated November 10, 2004, which was for the period ending May 31, 2004. There were no comments from the SEC examiners regarding this audit as well.
Enclosed herewith as Exhibit No. 99.2, is a copy of a January 2, 2008 U.S. Postal Certified Mail No. 7002241000543376468 five (5) page detailed correspondence, from ACH addressed to Mr. Mark W. Olsen, Chairman and Ms. Angela Desmond, Chief of Staff of the PCAOB. This letter had eleven (11) accompanying composite exhibits in support of management's response to the above described PCAOB Release.
On February 15, 2008, Claudius Modesti, the PCAOB's Director of Enforcement and Investigations sent a reply letter to Mr. Barney A. Richmond's letters dated December 17, 2007, January 1, 2008 and January 2, 2008. Ms. Modesti's letter, which is enclosed herein as Exhibit No. 99.3 stated exactly the following:
Dear Mr. Richmond:
"Your recent letters to Chairman Mark W. Olsen and Angela Desmond (dated December 17, 2007, January 1, 2008 and January 2, 2008) concerning American Capital Holdings, Inc. ("ACH") and Wieseneck, Andres & Company, P.A. ("Wieseneck") have been forwarded to my attention: I write to respond to one aspect of your letters. I understand that Gordon Seymour, the PCAOB's General Counsel, will separately respond to another aspect of your letters."
"You refer to potential PCAOB disciplinary action against Wieseneck, and, in connection with that point, you say that you would like to meet with PCAOB staff to discuss aspects of ACH's accounting. PCAOB disciplinary investigations are nonpublic by law and the staff does not disclose, confirm, or deny the existence of particular investigations unless and until they result in a public disciplinary order. In investigating potential auditor misconduct, the staff evaluates evidence gathered from various sources including, where appropriate evidence obtained from an auditor's clients. "In the event that your letters are relevant to issues that we are addressing in any investigation, we will take them into account, and we will follow up to the extent we believe appropriate. While we appreciate your offer to meet and to provide additional documents, we do not at this time see a need for either of those things. If this changes we will contact you."
Sincerely,
Claudius Modesti / Director

On February 15, 2008, Mr. Jay Gordon Seymour, General Counsel for the PCAOB, sent a reply letter to Mr. Barney A. Richmond's December 17, 2007, January 1, 2008 and January 2, 2008 letters. Mr. Seymour's correspondence, which is affixed herein as Exhibit No. 99.4. advised the following:
Dear Mr. Richmond:
"Your recent letters to Chairman Mark W. Olsen and Angela Desmond (dated December 17, 2007, January 1, 2008 and January 2, 2008) concerning American Capital Holdings, Inc. ("ACH") and Wieseneck, Andres & Company, P.A. ("Wieseneck") have been forwarded to my attention: I write to respond to one aspect of your letters. I understand Claudius Modesti, the PCAOB's Director of Enforcement and Investigations, will separately respond to another aspect of your letters."
"You refer to PCAOB Release No. 104-2005-117 ("the Release"), which is the publicly available portion of a PCAOB inspection report on Wieseneck. You suggest that the Release is critical of ACH's accounting in two respects, and you request consideration of your position before the PCAOB takes a position in the matter. Please note that (1) the Release indicates that PCAOB inspectors review audits of two of Wieseneck's ten issuer audit clients, neither which the Release identifies; (2) the Release is not critical of any audit clients' accounting, but instead describes failures by Wieseneck, in two respects, to perform audit procedures necessary for Wieseneck to have a sufficient basis for an audit opinion; and (3) the Release does not assert that both of those auditing failures were present in each of the audits reviewed. In addition, the PCAOB issued the Wieseneck inspection report in October of 2005, and there is no ongoing process with respect to its content."
"Should you have any questions concerning PCAOB processes, please feel free to call me at (202) 207-9034."
Sincerely,
J. Gordon Seymour / General Counsel
After receiving these PCAOB letters dated February 15, 2008, management interpreted the contents at face value, especially Mr. Seymour's declaration which advised:
"Please note that (1) the Release indicates that PCAOB inspectors review audits of two of Wieseneck's ten issuer audit clients, neither which the Release identifies; (2) the Release is not critical of any audit clients' accounting, but instead describes failures by Wieseneck, in two respects, to perform audit procedures necessary for Wieseneck to have a sufficient basis for an audit opinion; and (3) the Release does not assert that both of those auditing failures were present in each of the audits reviewed. In addition, the PCAOB issued the Wieseneck inspection report in October of 2005, and there is no ongoing process with respect to its content."
With respect to the last sentence of the above preceding paragraph, this did not prove to be accurate, which is further described in the below chronological sequence of events.

ITEM 1.BUSINESS - CONTINUED
The Company began the preparation of this Form December 31, 2008 10-K filing, which was due on March 31, 2009. During this period, management was periodically being advised by Mr. Thomas B. Andres, CPA of Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. that he and his partners were in the process of merging with another firm who he, Mr. Andres, advised was a PCAOB registered accounting firm, which was supposed to be located in Jupiter, Florida.
Notwithstanding, due to matters management was not privy to at the time, things with the proposed merger with a Jupiter based PCAOB registered firm was never consummated. On or about May 29, 2009, management was advised by Mr. Andres that Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. was merging with a New York based accounting firm named Fuoco Group, LLC ("Fuoco") and Fuoco would be the firm taking over the Company's audits. During the next several weeks, management focused on preparation of this December 31, 2009 10-K filings, which required the then forthcoming audits by a PCAOB registered accounting firm. However, in early September, 2009, after reviewing the PCAOB website to check the status of the Fuoco accounting firm, management discovered Fuoco was not a PCAOB registered auditing firm. Management also discovered that Mr. Thomas B. Andres, CPA and his firm, Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. ("the firm") were, individually as well as his accounting firm, were deregistered by the PCAOB on April 22, 2008 via PCAOB Release No.105-2008-001. The result of this PCAOB April 22, 2008 Release No. 105-2008-001 was Mr. Thomas B. Andres and the firm (Wieseneck & Andres, P.A.) could not be affiliated with any PCAOB firm for a period of two (2) years. A copy of the PCAOB Release No. 105-2008-001 is attached herein as Exhibit No. 99.5. Based on the contents contained in the two (2) above described PCAOB letters both dated February 15, 2008 from PCAOB Director Claudius Modesti and PCAOB General Counsel, J. Gordon Seymour, Management was totally blindsided by this discovery. Neither anyone from the PCAOB nor anyone from Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. gave the American Capital Holdings, Inc., eCom or the spin-off companies any type of notice whatsoever about the new 105-2008-001 PCAOB Release, which were the same allegations made in the PCAOB 104-2005-117 Release.
During the remainder of the entire month of September, 2009, management did considerable legal, tax and accounting background research issues regarding the unsupported background facts of the findings stated in the PCAOB Release No 105- 2008-001. Management believes Thomas B. Andres, CPA as well as Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. and the PCAOB entered into this consent order without examining the actual real facts with respect to all applicable Federal IRS Statutes. Additionally, management was unilaterally denied the opportunity to meet with the PCAOB to discuss the issues brought up in PCAOB Release No. 104-2005-117 and was led to believe there was "no ongoing process with respect to its content", as advised in J. Gordon Seymour's February 15, 2008 correspondence. The PCAOB was established via the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as a division within the SEC.
Management believes the intent of Sarbanes-Oxley Act was to provide greater corporate transparency disclosures as well as to provide better public company internal controls, both of which are what the PCAOB is supposed to administer. Management also believes this does not seem to be the case regarding to what appears to be jointly agreed to consent order by Wieseneck & Andres, P.A./Public Company Accounting Oversight Board PCAOB Release No. 105-2008-001 entered into. Again, the contents of PCAOB Release No. 104-2005-117 and PCAOB Release No. 105-2008-001 are basically the same. Management was totally blindsided by this event as we were led to believe the above referenced February 15, 2008 PCAOB letters as described above. Being Wieseneck & Andres, P.A. was the PCAOB approved accounting for all the subsidiary companies referenced above as well the accounting firm was court approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court, the PCAOB disbarment almost put all of the companies out of business as all of the accounting firms management had approached advised they would have to audit all of these companies from inception, which the companies could not afford without a capital infusion. Without clean audits, it is almost impossible to raise equity capital, which caused all the companies to get behind in their financial reporting.

RISK FACTORS
RISK FACTORS. The Company's business is subject to numerous risk factors, including the following:
NO OPERATING REVENUES. The Company has had no recent revenues or earnings from operations. The Company will sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues. This will result in the Company incurring net operating losses until it can realize profits from the business ventures it intends to acquire.
SPECULATIVE NATURE OF THE COMPANY'S PROPOSED OPERATIONS. The success of the Company's proposed plan of operation will depend primarily on the success of the Company's business operations. While the Company intends to try to run these operations profitably there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful or profitable.
Table of ContentsITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS - CONTINUED
SUCCESS OF OPERATIONS WILL DEPEND ON THE AVAILABILITY OF CAPITAL. Realization of the business' perceived potential will require significant capital. If the Company is not able to raise the funds to provide this capital, or to otherwise locate the required capital for the business, the company may never attain profitability.
LIMITED TIME COMMITMENT OF MANAGEMENT. While developing the Company's business plan, seeking business opportunities, and providing managerial resources, management will not be devoting its full time and efforts to the Company and will depend on other operational personnel. The Company's directors and officers have not entered into written employment agreements with the Company and they are not expected to do so in the foreseeable future. The Company has not obtained key man life insurance on its officers and directors. Notwithstanding the limited time commitment of management, loss of the services of these individuals would adversely affect development of the Company's business and its likelihood of continuing operations.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST - GENERAL. Certain conflicts of interest may exist from time to time between the Company and its officers and directors. They have other business interests to which they devote their attention, and they will continue to do so. As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through exercise of such judgment as is consistent with the fiduciary duties of management to the Company.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Assurance Group, Inc.
(A development stage company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Assurance Group, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. Assurance Group Inc.'s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 company's 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 audits provide 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 Assurance Group, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note E the Company has incurred significant losses. The Company's viability is dependent upon its ability to obtain future financing and the success of its future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A. Description of Business
Assurance Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "AGI") was originally incorporated in the State of Florida on July 10, 1997 as August Project II Corp. On June 13, 2000, the Company name was changed to Traffic Engine.com Inc. On January 2, 2001 Traffic Engine.com executed an agreement for the exchange of Common Share with Traffic Engine Inc., which became a wholly owned subsidiary of the parent. On March 29, 2001 the Company merged with Syndeos Corporation (f.k.a. Premier Plus Inc. a Florida Corporation). The Company changed its name to reflect majority ownership by the principles to Syndeos Group. Prior to its merger to become Syndeos Group, the Company was created to be a technology holding company with the purpose of identifying and acquiring emerging technology. The Company changed its name again to Air Media Now!, Inc on April 1, 2002 and owns two wholly owned subsidiaries Nortex Associates Inc and Syndeos Corporation. The Company changed it name to Assurance Group, Inc. on January 10, 2008.
The Company was a Cellular to Wireless Broad Band Channel Master. The Company created and delivered the leading Wireless Collaborative Platform that enabled Cellular subscribers and organizations to effectively connect, synchronize data, optimize business processes and manage ongoing relationships with broadband wireless access while providing real-time intelligence on critical business information. The Company was uniquely positioned to bridge two converging marketplaces: Cellular and Internet Infrastructure/Enterprises. The Company did this through its exclusive license to resell globally patented device and software solutions.
On June 20, 2002 Mr. Barney A. Richmond acquired just over 39 millions shares of the Company, becoming its majority shareholder.
During the last quarter of 2002 the Management of the Company made a decision to cease operations of the Company. This was due to the fact that new current management had no experience in the Wireless Telecom industry. On February 28, 2005 a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company was held. A motion was passed to elect Barney Richmond as Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Director and to elect Richard Turner as Treasurer and Director. The Company now is seeking acquisition of a Company which management has prior experience in. Currently, there are several acquisition opportunities that Management is evaluating.
Note B. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
BASIS OF PRESENTATION, USE OF ESTIMATES
The Company maintains its accounts on the accrual basis of accounting. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement 	exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and 	collectability is assured. The company had no revenue for the years 	ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.
CASH
Cash consists of deposits in banks and other financial institutions having original maturities of less than ninety days.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The accounting for common stock issued for services based the estimated fair value of the common stock issued as of the grant date. Because there is no market for the Company's common stock and no operations, the Company recorded the issuance of common stock for services at par value, which approximated the value of services received.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related to certain income and expenses recognized in different periods for financial and income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses and tax credits that are available to offset future taxable income and income taxes, respectively. A Valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted the new accounting for uncertainty in income taxes guidance on June 1, 2009. The adoption of that guidance did not result in the recognition of any unrecognized tax benefits and the Company has no unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2012. The Company's U.S. Federal and state income tax returns prior to fiscal year December 31, 2009 are closed and management continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings. The Company recognizes interest and penalties associated with tax matters as part of the income tax provision and includes accrued interest and penalties with the related tax liability in the consolidated balance sheets.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period presented. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by using the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the period. We have not issued any instruments resulting in potential common shares outstanding.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles-a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 ("FASB SFAS 168"). SFAS 168 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM ("Codification") as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP for nongovernmental entities. The Codification does not change U.S. GAAP. Instead, it takes the thousands of individual pronouncements that currently comprise U.S. GAAP and reorganizes them into approximately 90 accounting Topics, and displays all Topics using a consistent structure. Contents in each Topic are further organized first by Subtopic, then Section and finally Paragraph. The Paragraph level is the only level that contains substantive content. Citing particular content in the Codification involves specifying the unique numeric path to the content through the Topic, Subtopic, Section and Paragraph structure. FASB suggests that all citations begin with "FASB ASC," where ASC stands for Accounting Standards Codification. Changes to the ASC subsequent to June 30, 2009 are referred to as Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU").
In conjunction with the issuance of FASB SFAS 168, the FASB also issued ASU No. 2009-1, Topic 105-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("FASB ASU 2009-1"), which includes FASB SFAS 168 in its entirety as a transition to the ASC. FASB ASU 2009-1 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and had no impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations but changed the referencing system for accounting standards.
Certain of the following pronouncements were issued prior to the issuance of the ASC and adoption of the ASUs. For such pronouncements, citations to the applicable Codification by Topic, Subtopic and Section are provided where applicable in addition to the original standard type and number.
In June 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance under ASC 860 "Accounting for Transfer of financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities" which improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial asset; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor's continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. This additional guidance requires that a transferor recognize and initially measure at fair value all assets obtained (including a transferor's beneficial interest) and liabilities incurred as a result of a transfer of financial assets accounted for as a sale. Enhanced disclosures are required to provide financial statement users with greater transparency about transfers of financial assets and a transferor's continuing involvement with transferred financial assets. This additional guidance must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. This additional guidance must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. The adoption of this ASC 860 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and disclosures.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - (continued)
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2010-06, "Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements," which clarifies certain existing requirements in ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," and required disclosures related to significant transfers between each level and additional information about Level 3 activity. FASB ASU 2010-06 begins phasing in the first fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company is currently assessing the impact on its consolidated results of operations and financial conditions.
In February 2010, the FASB issued FASB ASU 2010-09, "Subsequent Events, Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements," which clarifies certain existing evaluation and disclosure requirements in ASC 855 "Subsequent Events" related to subsequent events. FASB ASU 2010-09 requires SEC filers to evaluate subsequent events through the date in which the financial statements are issued and is effective immediately. The new guidance does not have an effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
Note C. Income Taxes
The Company does not believe that the realization of the related net deferred tax asset meets the criteria required by generally accepted accounting principles and, accordingly, the deferred income tax asset arising from such loss carry forward has been fully reserved.
Deferred income taxes (benefits) are provided for certain income and expenses which are recognized in different periods for tax and financial reporting purposes. The Company had cumulative net operating loss carry-forwards for income tax purposes at December 31, 2012 of approximately $23,600,000, expiring through December 31, 2028. The Company has established a 100% valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset, as the Company has no history of profitable operations.
Note D. Related Party Transactions
The Company has received cash advances from Richard Turner, CFO of the Company and Barney Richmond CEO of the company, in varying amounts and at various times. These related party loans were non-collateralized and due on demand. The balance owed Mr. Turner as of December 31, 2012 is $5,053. The balance owed to Mr. Richmond as of December 31, 2012 is $11,806.
The Company is allocated certain expenses such as professional fees, rent, travel, and administrative costs that are paid on behalf of the Company by American Capital Holdings, Inc. a company that is related to the Company by mutual stockholders and Directors. The total expenses allocated to the Company during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $12,000 and $20,000, respectively. The balance owed to American Capital Holdings as of December 31, 2012 is $32,166.
Note E. Going Concern
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company is in the development stage with no operations, a net loss of $15,916 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a stockholder's deficiency and a working capital deficiency of $54,363 as of December 31, 2012, and cash used in operations from re-entering the development stage of $180,361. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to further implement its business plan and raise capital. The financial statements do not included any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 9.CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
During the last two fiscal years, the Company has not had any disagreements with its accountants. On March 18, 2011, the Company appointed Lake & Associates CPA's, LLC as its independent auditor. On September 19, 2011 the Company was notified by Lake and Associates CPA's, LLC of their resignation as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. On September 22, 2011, the audit committee authorized the appointment of the firm Alan R. Swift, CPA, P.A. ("Swift") to serve as the Company's independent auditor. On June 29, 2012, the Company terminated their engagement with Swift as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. On June 29, 2012 the audit committee authorized the appointment of Pybus & Company, P.A. ("Pybus") to serve as the Company's independent auditor.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
	Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
	We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure 	that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file 	or submit to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act, 	is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods 	specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and 	that information is accumulated and communicated to our management, 	including our principal executive and principal financial officer (whom we 	refer to in this periodic report as our Certifying Officer), as appropriate 	to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management is 	responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over 	financial reporting. Our management evaluated, with the participation of 	our Certifying Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and 	procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of 	December 	31, 2012, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon 	that evaluation, our Certifying Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, 	our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable 	assurance level.
	Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
	Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable 	assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the 	preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with 	U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. There has been no change in 	our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 	2012, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially 	affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
	Our management, including our Certifying Officer, does not expect that our 	disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all 	errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and 	operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the 	objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control 	system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the 	benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of 	the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of the 	controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and 	instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
	Our Certifying Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our 	internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in 	Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued 	by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway 	Commission. Based on this evaluation, he concluded that our internal 	control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.
	This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered 	public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial 	reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our 	registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the 	Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only 	management's report in this annual report.
