ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.
As of July 17, 2006, Amaru, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company")
commenced its private placement of 2,000,000 shares of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $1.50 per share for a total purchase
price of $3,000,000 to accredited investors only. As of the date hereof, the
Company closed its private placement. The Company raised a total of $180,252 by
issuing 120,168 shares at $1.50 each. The Company intends to have additional
private placements of its equity in the future.
The shares were offered and sold by the Company to investors whom the
Company had reasonable grounds to believe were "accredited investors" within the
meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"). The issuance of the shares is believed to be exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act by reason of Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act and the rules and regulations, including Regulation D and/or
Regulation S thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public
offering.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act or 1934,
the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
