TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 5.01. Changes in Control of Registrant.
The United States District Court for the District of Arizona has granted a preliminary injunction ordering the reinstatement of the Board of Directors of GoldSpring, Inc.

Hirschman, and Phil E. Pearce have been reinstated as directors. Stephen B. Parent, Jerrie W. Gasch, and Pernendu K. Rana Medhi, who orchestrated a purported removal of the members of the Board of Directors other than themselves on December 10, 2004, remain directors. A copy of the Court’s order will be posted on the Company’s website at www.goldspring.us.
On February 22, 2005, the Company issued a press release regarding this matter, which could be deemed to involve a change in control. A copy of this press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 5.01.
