Item 8.01 Other Events.
On January 8, 2013 SimplePons, Inc. entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Eco-Shift Power Corp. pursuant to which we will acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Eco-Shift in exchange for five million shares of our preferred stock, the designations, rights and preferences, including voting and conversion rights, of which are yet to be determined. Eco-Shift is a privately held Canadian company which develops, markets and sells lighting products, with an emphasis on providing customers with analysis of their energy management opportunities on a consultative basis, performing lighting assessments of their facility and developing final project proposals with a complete life cycle analysis. The closing of the acquisition is subject to the execution of a definitive agreement among the parties and the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, satisfactory due diligence, the delivery of audited financial statements by Eco-Shift, and completion of a financing by our company. The parties have agreed to use their best efforts to close the transaction by the end of January 2013. As a result of the number of conditions precedent to closing, some of which are not within our control, there are no assurances we will enter into the definitive agreement or consummate the proposed acquisition of Eco-Shift. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on this non-binding letter of intent.
