Re: | Novus Robotics Inc. Amendment No. 5 to Form 8-K Filed February 8, 2013 Form 10-Q for Fiscal Quarter Ended September 30, 2012 Filed November 16, 2012 File No. 000-53006 |
To Whom It May Concern:
On behalf of Novus Robotics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), we submit the following responses which respond to the numerical comments contained in the Securities and Exchange Commission letter dated February 25, 2013 (the “SEC Letter”) regarding the Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Current Report") and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012 (the “Quarterly Report”).
Form 8-K Amended February 8, 2013
Share Exchange Agreement, page 2
1. Please be advised that in accordance with the staff's comments, the Current Report has been revised to include a risk factor pertaining to the potential liability that the Company and/or its subsidiary, D&R Technology, Inc., may face in light of the fact that the shares issued by D&R Technology to the shareholders of D Mecatronics Inc. in accordance with the spin-off were not registered under the Securities Act.
Management is not of the position that it is consistent with Section 5 of the Securities Act to register the shares issued by D&R Technology to the shareholders of D Mecatronics Inc. in accordance with the spin-off.

The intent and desire by the Corporation and D&R Technology regarding the terms and provisions of the Share Exchange Agreement was the result of D&R Technology becoming the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The majority shareholders of D&R Technology approved the Share Exchange Agreement as did its Board of Directors. The Board of Directors of D&R Technology resolved in its board resolutions to issue to D Mecatronics the shares to be issued to the missing 28% minority shareholders of D&R Technology (who are also the unknown shareholders of D Mecatronics). Therefore, D Mecatronics is to hold in trust and for the benefit of the unknown shareholders of D Mecatronics the shares to be issued to them by D&R Technology. D Mecatronics is in the process of attempting to locate the transfer agent in order to obtain its records. It's not a matter of "missing shareholders" but of a "missing transfer agent".
Please be advised that the Current Report has been revised to clearly indicate that D Mecatronics is not of the position that it has the legal authority or power to vote the shares of common stock of the Corporation, which are being held in trust by D Mecatronics for the benefit of the shareholders of D&R Technology (and who are also the shareholders of D Mecatronics) until the transfer agent and records are located.
Please be further advised that management of the Corporation has reviewed SEC 17Ad-17, which is designed to address the problem of "lost security holders" and requires transfer agents to conduct searches in an effort to locate lost security holders. Management intends to issue a press release requesting shareholders of D Mecatronics to identify themselves to the Corporation. Management also intends to contact broker dealers known to it who carry customer accounts to conduct a search for assumed lost shareholders through an information database.
2. Please be advised that there is no collateral that secures the two convertible notes assigned and transferred to Dino Paolucci.
3. In accordance with the staff's request, the Quarterly Report for the period ended November 30, 2011 will be amended with regards to Note 3 of the financial statements. However, counsel believes that since the settlement agreements were dated December 15, 2009, the financial statements for all subsequent quarterly reports will need to be amended. Not only will Note 3 to the financial statements need to be amended, but we will also need to amend the balance sheet, the income statements and the statement of cash flows. We are working with our accountant on this issue.
