ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Overview

Corporate History

Euro Trend Inc. was incorporated on March 27, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada intending to commence business operations by distributing high-end European made designer clothing in mass wholesale and retail markets throughout Western Europe, Canada and the United States of America. On October 20, 2008 we completed a Share Exchange Agreement whereby we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock and ownership interests of Data Storage Corporation. In exchange we issued 13,357,143 shares of our common stock to the Data Storage Shareholders. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger for accounting purposes. Accordingly, Data Storage Corporation, the accounting acquirer, is regarded as the predecessor entity.

Description of Data Storage

Data Storage Corporation (“Data Storage” or “DSC”) was incorporated in Delaware on August 29, 2001. Data Storage develops and manages customized, powerful, premium solutions for data protection including: Storage Infrastructure Design and Management, Business Continuity Planning and Disaster Recovery, Virtualization, Archiving, Disk and Transaction Mirroring, and Internet Services..

Data Storage derives revenues from the sale of solutions that provide businesses protection of critical electronic data. At this time, these services consist primarily of offsite data backup and de-duplication for disaster recovery and business continuity purposes. We have operations in a non-collocated datacenter in Westbury, New York and a disaster recovery facility which is located over 1,000 miles away from the primary data center in Westbury, leveraging another non-collocated facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We deliver our services over a highly intelligent, reliable, redundant and secure fiber optic network, with separate and diverse routes to the Internet. This network and geographical diversity is important to clients seeking storage hosting and backup services, as it ensures protection of data in the case of a network interruption.

Data Storage is in the position today to leverage our infrastructure to grow revenue to significant levels by asset acquisition of data backup service providers’ customer bases. The aim is to reduce costs through economies of scale while reducing competition in local markets and consolidating efforts during the current economic downturn. Over 4,000 such service providers exist today; providing DSC with ample acquisition targets. Initial base acquisitions will be derived from companies that offer similar services to Data Storage as greater economies of scale can be realized using this strategy. In the future, DSC believes opportunities exist to acquire synergistic service providers to enhance our products and services portfolio. We believe that the opportunity exists today to roll up customer bases from resellers and software licensees of backup software. This will enable Data Storage to create a national presence as the premiere encrypted data depository; the National Data Bank. The roll up of these technical consulting companies and system integrators will also form a powerful distribution channel for both our current and future product and service offerings. Acquisition activity including organic growth is forecasted at $3.7 Million for 2009 and $9.7 Million for 2010. These revenue outlooks form the base line revenue for each consecutive year since revenue is monthly recurring and normally under a three year agreement with clients.

The marketplace providing data backup services are segmented into systems integrators that have added data protection services as an additional product line adding to their bundle of services and products. In many situations, these companies have purchased equipment and software licenses, and in others, they simply resell without equipment and invoice their clients on a monthly recurring basis. Ownership of the account is with the software licensee or software company. The companies that resell or whom have purchased equipment have a restricted exit and little upside, except for their recurring compensation, which ranges from 20% to 50%. These potential acquisitions sell into their client base and convert their clients from an older technology to data vaulting. Data Storage’s position will be to invite these potential acquisition candidates to roll up, receiving cash and stock while providing their exit. These acquisitions will become members of the national brand, National Data Bank; a USA secured and encrypted data depositary which is currently in process of registration. The companies whom have sold their bases to Data Storage will have this identification on their business card and continue to receive a royalty and continue to sell Data Storage services. This movement will unite the system integrator and their client with Data Storage forming a powerful distribution channel and one that does not exist today in the industry.

Today there exists over 4,000 companies selling backup services, from small providers selling backup to the local business to large companies offering the ability to house their client’s employees and equipment in a situation of disaster, a hot site.

As a complete industry overview the combined disk, and optical storage industry is approaching $50B in revenue, while the storage management software industry now exceeds $5B in annual revenue. The global data storage market is forecasted to reach $39B by year 2010. It already reached $19.8B by 2005. The enterprise storage market is in excess of $15B, the midrange storage market in excess of $13B, the storage software market is in excess of $9B and the network attached storage in excess of $2B.

-1-

More specially as it relates to the services planned and currently being provided, IDC analysts’ worldwide storage-as-a-service forecast (in terms of backup, archiving, and replication) shows demand for DSC’s core services increasing to over $1.4 billion in 2011, up from under $400 million in 2006. IDC’s worldwide online backup services forecast shows that demand for online backup services specifically is growing year over year from 2006 through 2011 at a minimum of 25%. The largest growth is seen coming from the SMB, followed by enterprise customers. Virtual Tape Library’s has a market size of 5 billion by 2012.

Data Storage’s target base will be the mid size marketplace, initially, less than 500 employees; acquiring customer bases that range from 15 to 500 employee size clients initially during 2008 and 2009. Average monthly client invoices ranges per account will be 250 – 2500 dollars. Organically, Data Storage will continue to focus on major distribution channels; the healthcare industry and the continuation of channel partners and distributors.

It is our objective to build a national data protection solution provider protecting corporate and healthcare information while satisfying the business continuity and compliance requirements.

Healthcare DPS, a division of Data Storage, provides outsourced data protection technology and services for hospitals, nursing and residential care facilities, physician’s offices, home healthcare service companies, dental offices, alternative healthcare offices, outpatient care centers, ambulatory healthcare service companies, and medical and diagnostic laboratories in the New York metropolitan area. Healthcare DPS assists companies in complying with HIPAA and other federal and local regulations on data protection.

With zero tolerance for downtime, larger healthcare organizations require extremely reliable mission-critical data protection services. A host of state and industry regulators are now urging, and in some cases requiring, the development of business continuity and disaster recovery plans to ensure the backup, protection and recovery of data on a long-term basis. Internet Services over Ethernet is rapidly becoming the technology of choice to address these critical data center needs, because of its ability to provide transparent connectivity over the wide area. Data Storage offers an array of services in order to satisfy all of the aforementioned requirements.

Description of Data Storage’s Business

Data Storage provides online backup, data archival and disaster recovery service for a range of businesses, at a competitive cost through the operation of an internet and private network based service utilizing state of the art technology and high caliber personnel. Under our current management, we have grown and developed adding personnel to provide services in all time zones.

We service customers from our New York premises which consist of modern offices and a technology suite adapted to meet the needs of a technology based business. Our primary role is to provide, maintain and develop the network hub hardware and software to meet the needs of our customers.

Data Storage varies its use of resource, technology and work processes to meet the changing opportunities and challenges presented by the market and the internal customer requirements.

Services

We offer the following services to our clients.

Archiving-Backup Lifecycle Management (BLM)

Backup data must be managed throughout its life cycle to provide the best data protection, meet compliance regulations and to improve recovery time objectives (RTO). The BLM Archiver offers policy-based file archiving and manages archiving and restoration of data from backup sessions, reducing the cost of inactive files on-line. It creates restorable point-in-time copies of backup sets for historical reference to meet compliance objectives and creates Certificates of Destruction. All of an enterprise's data can be placed into one of two categories. Critical information is that which is needed for day-to-day operations and resides in the system's primary storage for fast access. Important information is the historical, legal and regulatory information that can safely be archived to secondary storage, lower cost disk or tapes stored offsite.

Backup Lifecycle Management is a growing trend that promises substantial savings in hardware and administration, but not if the existing backup system is BLM-unfriendly. To achieve the expected return on investment (ROI), most enterprises will find it well worth choosing Distributed Backup that replaces traditional tape backup and integrates with BLM's unique technology for the greatest reduction in cost and complexity.

While there are many backup solutions on the market, not all are BLM-ready, even among those that backup to disk. It is important to note that simply replacing tape with low-cost disk will not provide the technological advantages of a tested, technologically distinct BLM architecture.

Continuous Data Protection (CDP) Appliance

As data continually mounts in today’s fast-paced business environment, organizations need to protect their systems on an ongoing basis, or risk losing mission-critical data, information, and transactions, as well as associated business revenue.

Continuous data protection is the process whereby data is captured and replicated to a separate storage location to ensure that a set of critical data is always available. With CDP you can roll back data to any known good point in time whenever necessary. In the event of a planned (maintenance, upgrade) or unplanned outage from a corrupted/lost file to a system failure or site level disaster, CDP ensures rapid data recovery to minimize downtime and data loss.

We provide a scalable CDP solution architecture designed to maximize business continuity of mission-critical messaging and database applications for data centers, dispersed branch offices, and even individual desktops and notebooks.

CDP solutions employ sophisticated I/O, CPU, and network throttling to achieve efficiency and reliability. Moreover, to protect against connectivity failures and interruptions, CDP features an auto resume mechanism that sustains replication and adapts according to the environment to achieve optimal and predictable performance.

Hard Disk Recovery by DriveSavers.com

We are an authorized reseller of DriveSavers hard disk recovery. DriveSavers’ advanced engineering methods and certified Class 100 clean room enable us to recover data from all hard drives, storage devices and removable media. We can recover from devices that have been dropped, sustained water or fire damage, suffered corruption, power failure, file deletion, or reformatting.

DriveSavers works with all versions of Windows, Mac, NetWare, and UNIX. They recover data from hard drives and removable media such as floppy diskettes, CD, or DVD. They also recover from all types of servers, RAID, SAN, and NAS devices.

Microsoft Exchange Backup

Continuous Data Protection (CDP) for Exchange

CDP provides a more efficient e-mail backup option based on its virtually unlimited granularity to remove the data loss vulnerabilities between regularly scheduled backups by optimizing Recover Point Objectives (RPO). As e-mail messages enter the Exchange server, CDP monitors the mailboxes and will immediately send those new e-mails to be backed up. Customers can now restore data from an infinite number of backup points, while the backup window and recovery time objectives are effectively reduced to zero. CDP is enabled for Microsoft Exchange using the Message Level Restore (MLR) functionality.

Offsite Backup Services

We provide online backup services that transfer a client’s information over the Internet or on a dedicated private circuit to our secure company owned off-site storage location. Our online backup service provides the most advanced data protection solution for small and medium businesses. Our service turns an ordinary server into a powerful and fully automated network backup device.

Even the most efficient organization must deal with the rare or occasional system maintenance, failures and outages. However, all businesses with intensive reliance on IT must be ready for the more catastrophic failures, such as fire, power outage or natural disaster. Our system addresses all data protection needs, from around-the-clock always updated protection of servers to the compliant archiving of data.

Virtual Tape Library (VTL)

Data Storage VTL addresses the issues associated with using physical tape as a primary backup/restore medium. Using a variety of protocols, VTL transfers data to and from disk-based virtual tapes at ultra-high speeds for fast backup and reliable recovery.

Replication with VTL enables cost-effective electronic transport for data recovery and infrastructure consolidation. Replication can be bi-directional, many-to-one, or on-to-many, providing highly efficient protection for any topology.

Only newly-created unique data is replicated, requiring a fraction of the bandwidth utilized by other technologies. Physical tape can be eliminated from remote/branch offices and consolidated at a central site. Only a single copy of data is replicated, even if it exists at multiple sites.

Tape is widely used as a prime medium for satisfying long-term compliance and archiving requirements. VTL maximizes the functionality of physical tape by offering multiple methods for creating and managing tapes, providing the flexibility to meet any required tape management schema.

Organizations today need to protect data company-wide, from the data center to the remote office. VTL is scalable solution deployed in companies of all sizes, from small and mid-sized businesses to large enterprise environments protecting multiple Petabytes of data. Whether customers require the simplicity of a single VTL or have multi-node and high-availability requirements, they can use VTL confidently, knowing that the solution will scale as their business grows.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company currently generates its cash flow through operations which it believes will be sufficient to sustain current level operations for at least the next twelve months. In 2008 we intend to continue to work to increase our presence in the marketplace through both organic growth and acquisition of data storage service provider’s assets.

To the extent we are successful in growing our business, identifying potential acquisition targets and negotiating the terms of such acquisition, and the purchase price includes a cash component, we plan to use our working capital and the proceeds of any financing to finance such acquisition costs. Our opinion concerning our liquidity is based on current information. If this information proves to be inaccurate, or if circumstances change, we may not be able to meet our liquidity needs.

During the year ended December 31, 2008 the company’s cash increased $251,258 to $289,061. The Company issued 51,465 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for a price of $9.72 for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000 and 92,878 shares of Common Stock for a price of $8.61 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $800,000.

The Company's working capital was $38,809 at December 31, 2008, increasing $15,715, from $23,094 at December 31, 2007.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use if estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of our financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands 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.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS 161 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Data Storage Corporation

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Data Storage Corporation as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended. Data Storage Corporation’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 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 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 Data Storage Corporation as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

DATA STORAGE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007

Note 1 Basis of presentation, organization and other matters

On October 20, 2008, Euro Trend Inc. ("Euro Trend") acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Data Storage Corporation (“Data Storage”). Data Storage became a wholly owned subsidiary of Euro Trend. On January 6, 2009 Euro Trend, Inc. filed with the state of Nevada changing its name to Data Storage Corporation. The business of Data Storage was the only business of Euro Trend after the acquisition.

Data Storage Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on August 29, 2001. Data Storage Corporation is a provider of data backup services. The Company specializes in secure disk-to-disk data backup and restoration solutions for disaster recovery, business continuity, and regulatory compliance.

The Company accounted for the acquisition as a recapitalization. The recapitalization was the merger of a private operating company (Data Storage) into a public corporation (Euro Trend) with nominal net assets and as such is treated as a capital transaction, rather than a business combination. As a result no Goodwill is recorded. The transaction is the equivalent to the issuance of stock by the private company for the net monetary assets of the shell corporation. The pre acquisition financial statements of Data Storage are treated as the historical financial statements of the consolidated companies.

The consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and footnotes have been revised to show the effect on the outstanding shares resulting from the acquisition. The effect on the outstanding shares is based on the 3.89 common shares of Euro Trend for every one share of Data Storage’s common stock. In addition, where required all share amounts have been revised to reflect the 3.89 common shares of Euro Trend for every one share of Data Storage’s common stock.

Liquidity

The financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable for a going concern, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company has generated revenues of $629,675 but has incurred a net loss of $537,959. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon achieving sales growth, reduction of operation expenses and ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and pay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due, and upon profitable operations. The Company has been funded by the CEO and majority shareholder since inception. It is the intention of Charles Piluso to continue to fund the Company on an as needed basis.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company follows the requirements of SFAS 123(R), Share Based Payments with regard to stock-based compensation issued to employees. The Company has various employment agreements and consulting arrangements that call for stock to be awarded to the employees and consultants at various times as compensation and periodic bonuses. The expense for this stock based compensation is equal to the fair value of the stock that was determined by using the closing trading price on the day the stock was awarded multiplied by the number of shares awarded.

Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity or remaining maturity at the time of purchase, of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

-15-

Concentration of credit risk and other risks and uncertainties

Financial instruments and assets subjecting the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and trade accounts receivable. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are maintained at major U.S. financial institutions. Deposits in these institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.

The Company's customers are primarily concentrated in the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, historical trends and other information.

Accounts Receivable / Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company sells its services to customers on an open credit basis. Accounts receivable are uncollateralized, non-interest-bearing customer obligations. Accounts receivables are due within 30 days. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the estimated accounts receivable that will not be collected due to credit losses and and allowances. Provisions for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable are made for individual accounts based upon specific facts and circumstances including criteria such as their age, amount, and customer standing. Provisions are also made for other accounts receivable not specifically reviewed based upon historical experience.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the term of the lease using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. Estimated useful lives in years for depreciation are 5 to 7 years for property and equipment. Additions, betterments and replacements are capitalized, while expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations when incurred. As units of property are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in income.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. At December 31, 2008, the Company had a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, line of credit and due to related parties. Management believes the estimated fair value these accounts at December 31, 2008 approximate their carrying value as reflected in the balance sheets due to the short-term nature of these instruments or the use of market interest rates for debt instruments.

Use of Estimates

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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues consist principally of storage revenues. Storage revenues consist of monthly charges related to the storage of materials or data (generally on a per unit basis). Sales are generally recorded in the month the service is provided. For customers who are billed on an annual basis, deferred revenue is recorded and amortized over the life of the contract.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses the costs associated with advertising as they are incurred. The Company incurred $32,477 and $26,121 for advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

-16-

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) adjusted for income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of potential common shares from contracts that may be settled in stock or cash by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. The inclusion of the potential common shares to be issued have an anti-dilutive effect on diluted loss per share because under the treasury stock method the average market price of the Company's common stock was less than the exercise prices of the warrants, and therefore they are not included in the calculation. Potentially dilutive securities at December 31, 2008 include 30,304 warrants and 2,505,864 options.

Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2008, the FASB, issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 , (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 enhances the disclosure requirements for an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. Since SFAS 161 requires additional disclosures concerning derivatives and hedging activities, the adoption of SFAS 161 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information they need to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 141R will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 states that a noncontrolling interest, sometimes called a minority interest, in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity, but separate from stockholders’ equity, in the consolidated financial statements. Currently, companies report noncontrolling interests as a liability or in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity. SFAS 160 also requires disclosure on the face of the statement of operations of those amounts of consolidated net income attributable to both parent and noncontrolling interest. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 160, noncontrolling interest will continue to be reported as a deduction in arriving at consolidated net income. The adoption of SFAS 160 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities- Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose 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 on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS 159 does not affect any existing accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value. The adoption of SFAS 159 on January 1, 2008 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows

On October 28, 2008 the Company issued warrants to purchase 30,204 shares of its common stock at $0.28 to consultants in exchange for services.

A summary of the Company's warrants activity and related information follows:

Balance at December 31, 2008		30,204	$	0.28	$	0.28

The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of the warrants issued during the year was the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, an acceptable model in accordance with SFAS 123(R), Share Based Payments. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average expected life of the warrants.

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the Warrants and is calculated by using the average daily historical stock prices through the day preceding the grant date.

Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company’s stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. The Company’s estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available. The Company’s calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices of these peer entities over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. The Company uses the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of its stock price.

Share-based compensation expense for warrants totaling $7,823 were recognized in our results for the years ended December 31, 2008 is based on awards vested and the Company estimated no forfeitures. SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates.

The weighted average fair value of warrants granted and the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model during the year ended December 31, 2008 are set forth in the table below.

	2008
Weighted average fair value of warrants granted	$	0.28
Risk-free interest rate		2.82	%

Net deferred tax asset	$	-0-		$	-0-

The Company had federal and state net operating tax loss carry-forward of approximately $366,125 as of December 31, 2008. The tax loss carry-forwards are available to offset future taxable income with the federal and state carry-forwards beginning to expire in 2028.

In 2008, net deferred tax assets did not change due to the full allowance. The Gross amount of the asset is entirely due to the Net operating loss carry forward. The realization of the tax benefits is subject to the sufficiency of taxable income in future years. The combined deferred tax assets represent the amounts expected to be realized before expiration.

The Company periodically assesses the likelihood that it will be able to recover its deferred tax assets. The Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible profits. As a result of this analysis of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company concluded that it is more likely than not that its net deferred tax assets will ultimately be recovered and, accordingly, no valuation allowance was recorded as of December 31, 2008.

The difference between the expected income tax expense (benefit) and the actual tax expense (benefit) computed by using the Federal statutory rate of 34% is as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2008			2007

Expected income tax benefit (loss) at statutory rate of 34%	$	124,483		$	-0-
State and local tax benefit, net of federal		21,968			-0-
Change in valuation account		(146,450	)		(-0-	)

Income tax expense (benefit)	$	-0-		$	-0-

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Our accountant is Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman & Company independent certified public accountants. We do not presently intend to change accountants. At no time have there been any disagreements with such accountants regarding any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of November 31, 2008. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules based on the material weakness described below:

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with United State’s generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP), including those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of 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. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, management has determined that as of December 31,2008, there were material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses identified during management’s assessment were (i) a lack of sufficient internal accounting expertise to provide reasonable assurance that our financial statements and notes thereto, are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and (ii) a lack of segregation of duties to ensure adequate review of financial statement preparation. In light of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting. As defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 5, a material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In order to ensure the effectiveness of our disclosure controls in the future we intend on adding financial staff resources to our accounting and finance department.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s 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 the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
