ITEM 2. ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

     On June 12, 2003, Rick's Cabaret International, Inc. ("Rick's") entered
into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with Taurus
Entertainment Companies, Inc. ("Taurus"), whereby Taurus agreed to sell to
Rick's the assets and liabilities of Taurus related to all of Taurus' adult
entertainment businesses, including all issued and outstanding shares of common
stock of Taurus's subsidiaries (other than Bluestar Physical Therapy, Inc., as
discussed below), which are: (i) Broadstreets Cabaret, Inc., a Texas
corporation; (ii) XTC Cabaret, Inc., a Texas Corporation; and (iii) Citation
Land, L.L.C, a Texas limited liability company in exchange for 3,752,008 shares
of common stock of Taurus owned by Rick's and $20,000 in cash. The 3,752,008
shares were cancelled by Taurus. The terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase
Agreement were the result of arm's length negotiations. However, no appraisal
was taken.

     Prior to entering into the Asset Purchase Agreement, Taurus, of which
Rick's owned 93% of the then outstanding shares of common stock, entered into a
Stock Exchange Agreement with Mr. Alfred Oglesby pursuant to which Taurus
acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Bluestar
Physical Therapy, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Bluestar") in exchange for
9,650,000 shares of restricted common stock of Taurus. Bluestar's business
strategy is to acquire, develop and operate licensed outpatient physical therapy
clinics nationwide. The terms and


<PAGE>
conditions of the Stock Exchange Agreement were the result of arm's length
negotiations.  However, no appraisal was taken.

     In addition to entering into the Asset Purchase Agreement, Rick's agreed to
indemnify Taurus for all of the liabilities of Taurus assumed by Rick's pursuant
to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Indemnified Liabilities"). The Indemnified
Liabilities are any liabilities related to the assets acquired by Rick's from
Taurus that existed or that may arise in the future under an Indemnification and
Transaction Fee Agreement ("Indemnification Agreement") that was executed on
June 12, 2003. Under the Indemnification Agreement, Taurus agreed to pay
$270,000 to Rick's, payable $140,000 at closing, with $60,000 due on July 15,
2003, and $70,000 due on August 15, 2003. Mr. Oglesby personally guaranteed the
payment of the remaining $130,000. The terms and conditions of the Asset
Purchase Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement were the result of arm's
length negotiations. However, no appraisal was taken.

     Prior to these transactions, we owned 93% of the outstanding shares of
common stock of Taurus. After these transactions, we own approximately 2% of
Taurus' common stock.

                                INDEMNIFICATION

     8.1     Indemnification  from Taurus to Rick's.  Taurus agrees to and shall
             --------------------------------------
indemnify, defend (with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Rick's), and hold
Rick's,  its  officers,  directors, shareholders, employees, agents, affiliates,
and  assigns  harmless  at  all times after the date of this Agreement, from and
against  and  in  respect  of,  any  liability, claim, deficiency, loss, damage,
penalty  or  injury, and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys'  fees  and costs of any suit related thereto) suffered or incurred by
Rick's  arising  from (a) any misrepresentation by, or breach of any covenant or
warranty  of  Taurus  contained  in  this Agreement, or any exhibit or schedule,
certificate,  or  other  instrument  furnished  or  to  be  furnished  by Taurus
hereunder,  or  (b)  any  nonfulfillment  of any agreement on the part of Taurus
under  this  Agreement.

     8.2     Indemnification from Rick's.  Rick's agrees to and shall indemnify,
             ---------------------------
defend (with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Taurus) and hold Taurus, its

harmless at all times after the date of Closing from and against, and in respect
of any liability, claim, deficiency, loss, damage, or injury, and all reasonable

Liabilities.

     8.3     Defense  of  Claims.  If any lawsuit or enforcement action is filed
             -------------------
against any party entitled to the benefit of indemnity hereunder, written notice
thereof shall be given to the indemnifying party as promptly as practicable (and
in  any event not less than fifteen (15) days prior to any hearing date or other
date  by  which  action  must  be  taken);  provided  that  the  failure  of any
indemnified  party  to  give  timely  notice  shall  not  affect  rights  to
indemnification  hereunder  except  to  the  extent  that the indemnifying party
demonstrates  actual  damage  caused by such failure.  After such notice, if the
indemnifying  party  shall acknowledge in writing to such indemnified party that
this  Agreement  applies  with  respect  to  such  lawsuit  or  action, then the
indemnifying  party  shall  be entitled, if it so elects, to take control of the

and  defense  of  such  lawsuit or action and any appeal arising therefrom.  The
indemnifying  party  shall  not,  without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the
indemnified  party,  effect any settlement of any proceeding in respect of which
any  indemnified party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder unless
such  settlement  of  a  claim,  investigation,  suit,  or other proceeding only
involves  a  remedy  for  the  payment  of  money  by the indemnifying party and
includes  an  unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability
on  claims  that  are  the  subject  matter  of  such  proceeding.

     8.4     Default  of Indemnification Obligation.  If an entity or individual
             --------------------------------------
having  an  indemnification,  defense  and  hold  harmless  obligation, as above
provided,  shall  fail  to assume such obligation, then the party or entities or
both,  as  the  case  may  be,  to  whom  such indemnification, defense and hold
harmless  obligation  is  due  shall  have the right, but not the obligation, to
assume and maintain such defense (including reasonable counsel fees and costs of
any  suit  related  thereto)  and  to make any settlement or pay any judgment or
verdict  as  the  individual  or  entities deem necessary or appropriate in such
individual's or entities' absolute sole discretion and to charge the cost of any
such  settlement,  payment,  expense  and costs, including reasonable attorneys'
fees,  to  the  entity  or  individual  that  had the obligation to provide such
indemnification,  defense and hold harmless obligation and same shall constitute
an additional obligation of the entity or of the individual or both, as the case
may  be.

     2.1     Indemnification from Rick's.  Rick's agrees to and shall indemnify,
             ---------------------------
defend (with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Taurus) and hold Taurus, its

not less than fifteen (15) days prior to any hearing date or other date by which
action  must  be  taken);  provided that the failure of any indemnified party to

without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the  indemnified  party,  effect  any
settlement  of  any  proceeding  in  respect of which any indemnified party is a
