ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
    
     On September 19, 1996, Internet Communications Corporation (the 
"Registrant") acquired all outstanding shares of capital stock of Interwest 
Communications C.S. Corporation ("Interwest"), a Colorado Corporation, from 
Interwest Group, Inc., pursuant to the Amended and Restated Acquisition 
Agreement ("Agreement"), dated as of May 29, 1996 between Internet 
Communications Corporation. Interwest Group, Inc., and Internet Acquisition 
One, Inc.  The acquisition was approved by Registrant's shareholders at a 
special meeting held on September 12, 1996.  The acquisition agreement  
provided for and included the following provisions: 

    (1)  the issuance and sale by the Registrant to Group, on May 29, 1996 
(the "First Closing Date"), at par and for cash, of a promissory note of the 
Registrant (the "Note") (a) in the principal amount of $900,000, (b) having a 
maturity on December 31, 1996, or, if earlier, the date that is 30 days after 
the earlier to occur of (i) the failure of the shareholders of the Registrant 
to approve the Agreement at the Shareholders Meeting or (ii) the termination 
of the Amended and Restated Acquisition Agreement by Group pursuant to the 
terms thereof, including, without limitation, upon the breach by the 
Registrant of any representation or warranty in the Agreement, the 
determination by Group that the conditions to its obligations with respect to 
the Second Closing Transactions described below are not capable of being met 
by September 5, 1996 (which stipulation was subsequently waived) and (c) the 
note bears interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum from May 29, 1996 to and 
including a date that is 60 days after May 29, 1996 (or, if the Second 
Closing Date shall then have occurred, the date that is 90 days after May 29, 
1996) and the rate of 12.5% per annum thereafter, payable monthly in arrears 
or, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a default under the 
Note, at a rate of interest 3.5% per annum greater than the rate otherwise 
applicable; PROVIDED that, if the Registrant shall fail to pay in full the 
principal amount of the Note and all interest accrued there on at the 
maturity thereof (whether at scheduled maturity, on the date of any required 
prepayment or, after the expiration of applicable grace periods and cure 
periods, upon acceleration), then, at any time during the period commencing 
the day after the date of such maturity of the Note (if the principal amount 
thereof and all interest accrued thereon shall then not have been paid in 
full) and ending on a date that is 45 days after the date of such maturity, 
Group may elect to convert the Note into 300,000 shares of the Registrant's 
Common Stock (the "Conversion Shares") at a price of $3.00 per share (as such 
number of shares and price per share may be adjusted pursuant to the terms 
thereof).

    (2)  At the Second Closing Date, the parties to the Agreement caused 
Acquisition One, Inc., to merge into Interwest with the result that 
Acquisition One, Inc., ceased to exist and Interwest was the surviving 
corporation. Internet owns all outstanding shares of Interwest. In exchange 
Internet issued 2,306,541 of Internet Common Stock to Group, which shares 
equal 49.0% of the shares of Registrant's Common Stock issued and outstanding 
immediately following consummation of the Acquisition, assuming for these 
purposes that there are no stock options, warrants or other rights then 
outstanding to acquire shares of the Company's Common Stock other than those 
currently outstanding and set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement.

                                     -2-

    The Amended and Restated Acquisition Agreement also provided for 
representations and warranties by each party regarding corporate existence 
and power, authorization, approvals and consents, binding effect, financial 
information, financial condition, absence of defaults under outstanding debt 
instruments (with respect to which waivers have not been obtained), absence

with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the approval of the boards of 
directors, shareholders and creditors of the respective parties, the absence 
of other merger agreements, the absence of fees for brokers and finders and 
continuing representations and warranties.

    The Agreement contained covenants of each party including, without 
limitation, (a) a covenant not to solicit mergers and acquisitions prior to 
the Second Closing, (b) a covenant by the Registrant to increase the size of 
its board of directors from four to eight, form three classes of directors 
whose terms shall be for three (3) year periods and to cause three 
individuals designated by Group to be elected as a directors of the 
Registrant, (c) additional affirmation covenants of each party, as 
applicable, requiring the maintenance of records, maintenance of properties, 
conduct of business, maintenance of insurance, compliance with laws, payment 
of taxes, reporting of specified information to the other party, reservation 
by the Registrant of a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to be 
issued to Group, qualification by the Registrant of the shares of Common 
Stock to be issued to Group for inclusion in the National Association of 
Securities Dealers Automated Quotations/Small Cap Market ("NASDAQ/Small Cap 
Market"), maintenance of existence, compliance with laws, use of best efforts 
to complete the Agreement, coordination of publicity regarding the Agreement, 
maintenance of confidentiality of information and further assurances, and (d) 
negative covenants of each party, as applicable and subject to certain 
transactions undertaken in the ordinary course of business with respect to 
amendment of charter documents, issuance of securities, creation of liens and 
encumbrances, incurrence of debt, restricted payments, investments, merger 
agreements or agreements with respect to other business combinations, leases,

litigation, delisting securities of the Registrant from NASDAQ/Small Cap 
Market, amending any of the Share Exchange Agreement without the prior 
approval of the other party and imposing limitations on the rights enjoyed by 
Group as a shareholder of the Registrant after the Share Exchange Agreement.

    Finally, the Amended and Restated Acquisition Agreement contained 
conditions precedent to the closing of the Second Closing Date including, 
without limitation, satisfaction of each party with the terms and conditions 
of the other Exhibits to the Agreement, receipt of all necessary approvals 
and consents from the shareholders and creditors of the respective parties, 
governmental authorities and other persons, the absence of pending or 
threatened actions that would restrict in any material respect or prohibit 
the Second Closing, the 

                                      -3-

determination that the acquisition will be characterized as a tax-free 
reorganization under section 368(a)(1)(A) or 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal 
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the absence of any violation or default 
with respect to any regulation of any governmental body by any of the parties 
or their respective subsidiaries, the continued accuracy and correctness of

Agreement") pursuant to which Group and its successors and assigns will have 
the right on five occasions, commencing on May 29, 1998, to cause the 
Registrant to register the Registrant's Shares (including shares issued to 
Group for its shares of Interwest and shares that may be converted upon 
default of the Note) for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended 
(the "Securities Act"), and, commencing on May 29, 1997, to cause the 
Registrant to include the Registrant's Shares in any registration statement 
filed under the Securities Act offering any other shares of the Registrant's 
Common Stock.

                     INTERNET COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION

       INTRODUCTION TO PRO FORMA COMBINED, CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
                                   (UNAUDITED)


On September 19, 1996, Internet Communications Corporation (Internet or the
Company) completed a purchase with Interwest Communications C.S. Corporation
(Interwest) whereby Internet issued 2,306,541 shares of common stock (49% of the
common stock outstanding after the transaction) and acquired 100% of Interwest's
outstanding common stock.  Interwest, prior to the merger, was a wholly owned
subsidiary of Interwest Group, Inc. (Group), a holding company for several
diverse enterprises.  Group effectively acquired Interwest from its prior
shareholder (an individual and his spouse) on June 1, 1995 in a monetary
purchase transaction.  In conjunction with Internet's acquisition of Interwest,
Group has advanced Internet $900,000 in the form of a promissory note, which if
not paid when due on December 31, 1996, is convertible into common stock at
$3.00 per share. 

The attached pro forma combined condensed balance sheet combines the balance
sheets of Internet as of July 31, 1996 with Interwest as of August 31, 1996, as
if the merger had occurred on the balance sheet dates.  This merger is being
treated for financial accounting purposes as a purchase transaction. 

The pro forma combined condensed statement of operations combines Internet's and
Interwest's six-month and eight-month interim periods, respectively, and year-
end operations as if the merger has occurred at the beginning of the period
presented.  Internet's fiscal year-end is January 31, 1996.  Interwest, prior to
the acquisition by Group, had a March 31 year-end, which changed to a calendar
year-end as a result of the acquisition by Group.  Therefore, Interwest's
operations for the 12 months ended December 31, 1995, have been recasted to
reflect a full fiscal year. 

These statements are not necessarily indicative of future operations or the
actual results that would have occurred had the transaction been consummated at
the beginning of the period indicated.  The pro forma combined financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial
statements and notes thereto which for Interwest are accompanying pro forma
information and for Internet are included in its Form 10-KSB and Form 10-QSB
accompanying the Proxy document as Appendixes E and F, respectively.

                    NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION


A.   To reflect the acquisition of Interwest by Internet, which is valued at
     approximately $5,480,000.  As the cost basis of Interwest assets
     approximate the market value, an excess amount of purchase price over net
     assets acquired (goodwill) of approximately $1,614,000 will be recorded,
     plus cost of the share exchange.  This amount is in addition to
     approximately $1,400,000 of goodwill remaining on Interwest balance sheet
     from its prior acquisition in June 1995 by Group. 

B.   To record estimated additional cost of the acquisition.

C.   To reflect additional amortization of goodwill recorded in the transaction,
     which will be amortized over 20 years. 

D.   To reduce income tax expense (benefit) based on combined pro forma losses.

flows for the seven-month period then ended.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
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 Interwest Communications C.S.
Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the seven-month period then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   OPERATIONS AND ACQUISITION:

     OPERATIONS - Interwest Communications C.S. Corporation (Interwest C.S.) 
     and subsidiaries (the "Company") are engaged primarily in the business 
     of selling, leasing, installing, and maintaining telephone 
     communication systems for various customers primarily in the state of 
     Colorado.

     ACQUISITION - Effective June 1, 1995, Interwest Group, Inc. (Interwest 
     Group) (formerly known as West Hazmat Companies, Inc.), a wholly owned 
     subsidiary of the Anschutz Company (Anschutz), purchased 100% of the 
     common stock of the Company.  The purchase price, including acquisition 
     costs, was approximately $3,726,000 and consisted of cash of 
     approximately $1,482,000 and a note payable issued to the seller of 
     approximately $2,244,000 which is reflected as a liability of Interwest 
     Group.

     This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of 
     accounting. Goodwill of approximately $1,470,000 and noncompete 
     agreements of $600,000 were recorded in connection with the purchase 
     and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over fifteen and five 
     years, respectively.

     Unaudited pro forma revenue and net income for the year ended December 
     31, 1995, prepared as if the Company was purchased by Interwest Group 
     on January 1, 1995, are $15,790,000 and $37,000, respectively.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements 
     include the accounts of Interwest C.S.; its 58.2% subsidiary, Work 
     Telcom Services, Inc.; its 97% subsidiary, Interwest Cable Network 
     Systems, Inc.; its 51% subsidiary, Interwest Communications Pueblo 
     Corporation; and its 50% subsidiary, Omega Business Communications 
     Services, Inc.  The minority interests of the above subsidiaries are 
     owned by the respective managers of each company and two of the 
     managers have the option to acquire a stated number of additional 
     shares at a specified price, but the managers would still own less than 
     50% of their respective entity.  All material intercompany transactions 
     and amounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
     
     INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The consolidated financial statements of 
     the Company as of August 31, 1996, presented herein have been prepared 
     by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of 
     the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The financial statements 
     reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) 
     which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly 
     the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the 
     Company as of August 31, 1996, and for the period then ended.
     
     ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - Preparation of financial statements in 
     conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires that 
     management make certain estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and 
     assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 
     the disclosure of contingent assets and 


                                    F-14

         INTERWEST COMMUNICATIONS C.S. CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
            (A WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF INTERWEST GROUP, INC.)

                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of 
     revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could 
     differ from these estimates.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION - The Company utilizes the percentage-of-completion 
     method under which revenues from long-term contracts are recognized by 
     measuring the percentage of costs incurred to date to estimated total 
     costs for each contract.  Contract costs include direct material and 
     labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, 
     such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation 
     costs.  Operating costs are charged to expense as incurred.  Provisions 
     for estimated losses on incomplete contracts are made in the period in 
     which such losses are determined.  Changes in job performance, job 
     conditions, and estimated profitability, may result in revisions to 
     costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the 
     revisions are determined.
     
     Following the acquisition by Interwest Group, the Company changed its 
     method of accounting for long-term contracts from the completed 
     contract method to the percentage of completion method.  The percentage 
     of completion method is considered preferable when an entity can 
     reasonably estimate contract revenues and expenses and the extent of 
     progress toward completion because a proportionate share of contract 
     revenues and expenses are recognized during the period earned rather 
     than at the completion of the contract.  If the Company had continued 
     to use the completed contract method, the net loss for the seven-month 
     period ended December 31, 1995 and the eight-month period ended August 
     31, 1996 would have been approximately $370,000 and $120,000, 
     respectively.
     
     DEFERRED REVENUE AND DEPOSITS - The Company has entered into 
     maintenance and extended warranty contracts with customers which 
     require payment in advance.  Revenue received in advance is deferred 
     and recognized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the 
     maintenance and extended warranty contracts which are one and five 
     years, respectively.
     
     Deposits represent advance payments received from customers which are 
     required prior to the commencement of an installation project.  At 
     December 31, 1995 and August 31, 1996, the Company has received and 
     deferred approximately $255,000 and $238,000, respectively, of unearned 
     deposits from customers.  
     
     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Significant additions and improvements are 
     capitalized at cost, while maintenance and repairs which do not improve 
     or extend the life of the respective assets are charged to operations 
     as incurred.
     
     Depreciation and amortization is provided using the straight-line 
     method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:

          Machinery, equipment and other     3-7 years
          Furniture and fixtures             3-5 years
          Vehicles                           3-5 years
          Leasehold improvements               5 years

                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - All highly liquid cash investments with 
     original maturity dates of three months or less are classified as cash 
     equivalents.
     
     INTANGIBLES - Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 
     a period of 15 years.  Accumulated amortization at December 31, 1995 
     and August 31, 1996, is approximately $62,000 and $128,000, 
     respectively.
     
     The Company is amortizing noncompete agreements on a straight-line 
     basis over the five year life of the agreements.  At December 31, 1995 
     and March 31, 1996, the related accumulated amortization is 
     approximately $69,000 and $149,000, respectively.
     
     Other assets is comprised primarily of purchased customer lists which 
     are being amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.  At 
     December 31, 1995 and August 31, 1996, the related accumulated 
     amortization is approximately $56,000 and $104,000, respectively.
     
     The amortization expense for the seven months ended December 31, 1995 
     and the eight months ended August 31, 1996, for the above intangibles 
     was approximately $173,000 and $194,000, respectively.
     
     INVENTORY - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market using 
     the weighted average cost method and is comprised primarily of 
     telephone systems and related parts.
     
     INCOME TAXES - Interwest C.S. and Interwest Cable Network Systems, Inc. 
     are included in the consolidated federal income tax return of Anschutz 
     and the other subsidiaries file their own federal income tax return.  
     The income taxes of the Company are computed by applying the asset and 
     liability method to the Company as if it were a separate taxpayer.  The 
     Company receives or makes cash payments to Anschutz based upon the 
     benefits or liabilities it generates.
     
     The current provision for income taxes represents actual or estimated 
     amounts payable or refundable on tax returns filed or to be filed for 
     each year.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the 
     estimated future tax effects of:  (a) temporary differences between the 
     tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the 
     consolidated balance sheets, and (b) operating loss and tax credit 
     carryforwards.  The overall change in deferred tax assets and 
     liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit 
     for the period.  Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred tax 
     assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in 
     the period of enactment.  The measurement of deferred tax assets may be 
     reduced by a valuation allowance based on judgmental assessment of 
     available evidence if deemed more likely than not that some or all of 
     the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

     The Company has outstanding borrowings of $272,000 and $-0- under a
     $500,000 revolving line-of-credit with a bank at December 31, 1995 and
     August 31, 1996, respectively.  Interest accrues at the bank's prime rate
     plus 1% (9.5% at December 31, 1995), and is payable monthly.  The line-of-
     credit is secured by all funds in the bank's custody and the Company's
     accounts receivable and inventory balances.

     In June 1996, the Company paid the outstanding balance and terminated this
     line-of-credit agreement.

     In April 1996, the Company along with Interwest Group and affiliates
     entered into a $4.3 million revolving line-of-credit agreement and the
     Company is jointly and severally liable under the agreement.  This
     agreement includes a provision that should the Company's ownership change
     by more than 49%, it will be considered an event of default.

     Under the provisions of certain debt agreements, the Company is required to
     maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, among other
     restrictions, including a trading ratio which is based on the ratio of
     various fixed assets to accounts payable, accrued expenses and principal
     outstanding on the loan, and a maximum borrowings ratio based on accounts
     receivable and inventory.

6.   RETIREMENT AND BONUS PLANS:

     The Company has established a 401(k) retirement plan covering substantially
     all of their employees who have been employed with the Company for one year
     and who are at least 21 years of age.  Each employee's contribution up to a
     maximum of 10% is matched 50% by the Company.  The Company may also make
     additional cash contributions at the discretion of the Board of Directors. 
     Employees are fully 

                                     F-19

     vested in employer contributions after they complete six years of service.
     Contributions of $38,00 were made for the seven months ended December 31,
     1995.

     The Company awards bonuses to certain management personnel which are based
     on various performance factors and are awarded at the discretion of the
     Company's management. 

7.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

     At December 31, 1995 and August 31, 1996, the Company owed approximately
     $422,000 and $1,436,000 to Interwest Group primarily for cash draws and for
     its share of insurance which is provided by Anschutz and allocated to the
     Company.

8.   CONTINGENCIES:

     The Company is a party to three employment related legal and or
     administrative proceedings which have arisen out of the ordinary course of
     business.  Although the ultimate resolution of these matters is uncertain,
     management believes that the actions are without merit and that the outcome
     will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position
     or results of operations.  The Company has not recorded any liability
     amounts related to these matters. 

9.   FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

     Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts
     receivable, accounts payable, and other accrued liabilities.  The carrying
     amounts for these financial instruments approximate fair value due to the
     short-term maturity of these instruments.  Debt is also a financial
     instrument and based upon the difference in prevailing interest rates when
     the debt was issued and the prevailing interest rates at December 31, 1995,
     the carrying values approximate fair values.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
     
     ORGANIZATION - Interwest Communications C.S. Corporation (Interwest C.S.),
     Work Telcom Services, Inc. (Work Telcom), Interwest Communications Pueblo
     Corporation (Interwest Pueblo), and Interwest Sound Communications, Inc.
     (Interwest Sound) are incorporated under the laws of the Sate of Colorado. 
     The companies are affiliated through common ownership and management and
     are engaged primarily in the business of selling, leasing, installing, and
     maintaining telephone communication systems.

     PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION - The combined financial statements include the
     consolidated accounts of Interwest C.S. and its 58.2% subsidiary, Work
     Telcom and the affiliated companies of Interwest Pueblo and Interwest
     Sound.  The sole shareholder of Interwest C.S. owns 51% of the outstanding
     common stock of Interwest Pueblo and his spouse owns 75% of the outstanding
     common stock of Interwest Sound.  The minority interests of Work Telcom,
     Interwest Pueblo, and Interwest Sound are owned by the respective manager
     of each company.  All material intercompany transactions and balances have
     been eliminated.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION - Interwest C.S., Work Telcom, and Interwest Pueblo are
     on the completed contract method under which revenues and costs are
     recognized at the time a contract is completed, unless it becomes apparent
     that a contract will result in a loss, then such loss is provided for
     currently.  Accordingly, inventory and labor costs are deferred along with
     related billings until such time as the contract is complete.  Interwest
     C.S., Work Telcom, and Interwest Pueblo also have maintenance agreements
     with customers.  Revenue received in advance is deferred and recognized
     over the terms of the maintenance agreements.

     Interwest Sound is on the percentage-of-completion method under which
     revenues from contracts are recognized by measuring the percentage of costs
     incurred to date to estimated total costs for each contract.  That method
     is used because management considers total cost to be the best available
     measure of progress on the contracts.  Contract costs include direct
     material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract
     performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and
     depreciation costs.  Operating costs are charged to expense as incurred. 
     Provisions for estimated losses on incomplete contracts are made in the
     period in  which such losses are determined.  Changes in job performance,
     job conditions, and estimated profitability, may result in revisions to
     costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions
     are determined.

     ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS - Bad debts are recognized by the
     establishment of an allowance for expected losses on receivables that may
     become uncollectible.

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Depreciation for property and equipment owned by
     the companies is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated life
     of the related asset, which range from three to ten years.  Expenditures
     for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property
     and equipment are capitalized.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs
     are charged to expense as incurred.

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     INCOME TAXES - The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability
     method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
     for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included
     in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred
     tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between
     the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using
     enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are
     expected to reverse.

     RECLASSIFICATION - Certain reclassifications have been made to the combined
     financial statements to present them on a consistent basis between periods.
     Such reclassifications had no material effect on net income.
