1.           DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND HISTORY

Description of business – Alpine 4 Automotive Technologies Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 22, 2014. The Company originally intended to serve as a vehicle to effect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business.  The Company has subsequently entered into a License Agreement with AutoTek Incorporated (“AutoTek”), pursuant to which AutoTek licensed to the Company the right to use certain source code for the development of products.  Subsequent to the entry into the License Agreement, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement with AutoTek, relating to the purchase of the source code asset.  The closing of the transaction is subject to the approval of AutoTek’s shareholders.

On June 27, 2014, the Board of Director and sole stockholder of Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from ALPINE 4 Inc. to Alpine 4 Automotive Technologies Ltd. On that date, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Delaware.

Additionally, on June 30, 2014, the Board of Director and majority stockholder of the Company approved a further amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of common stock from 100,000,000 shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock.  On that date, the officers of the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment relating to the increase in authorized capital with the State of Delaware.

On September 19, 2014, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) with Pure Mobility International Inc. (“PMII”) relating to the proposed purchase by the Company of the outstanding shares of stock of PMII.  Pursuant to the LOI, the Company proposed to purchase 100% of the outstanding shares of PMII for shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company and PMII reserved the right to restructure the acquisition as an asset purchase transaction rather than a share purchase transaction.

Also pursuant to the LOI, the Company and PMII anticipate that the Company will acquire assets of PMII including certain distributor agreements, contracts, accounts receivable, and certain inventory of PMII.  The Company proposed to issue shares of its restricted common stock with an aggregate value of approximately five million dollars ($5,000,000).  The Company and PMII further agreed to negotiate a definitive agreement to set forth the material terms of the transaction, following appropriate due diligence.

2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements for interim financial statements. Therefore, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company in our Form 10-12G/A filed on June 5, 2014 with the SEC.

The interim financial statements present the balance sheets, statements of operations and cash flows of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The interim financial information is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2014, and the results of operations and cash flows presented herein have been included in the financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year.

7

Use of estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  These estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information that is currently available to the Company and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 90 days.  Cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality financial institutions and are primarily in money market funds.  The carrying value of those investments approximates fair value. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable, net – The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.

Stock subscription receivable – At September 30, 2014, the Company had a stock subscription receivable in the amount of $12,500 related to the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock.  The amount was collected in October 2014 and has been presented as a current asset in the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheet.

Inventory – Inventory is valued at the lower of the inventory’s cost (weighted average basis) or the current market price of the inventory. Management compares the cost of inventory with its market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower.  All of the Company’s inventory at September 30, 2014 is finished goods inventory.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 605.  For the Company’s LotWatch product, the Company charges auto dealerships an installation fee for the installing its telematics devices in the vehicle and a monthly fee based on the number of vehicles on the dealer’s lot.  Revenue for the installation is recognized with completed.  The Company charges each dealer a monthly fee based on the number of vehicles on the dealer’s lot. Revenue for this monitoring service is recognized monthly based on the number of vehicles on the dealer’s lot.

For the Company’s ServiceWatch product, the Company allocates the cost of the contract between the hardware and the service contract.  The revenue from the hardware is recognized when the contract is sold to the customer and the revenue for the service contract is recognized monthly over the contract period of generally 2-3 years.  The revenue allocated to the hardware comprises the cost of the hardware plus a reasonable profit on the sale of the hardware, plus a factor for selling and commissions.  The balance of the contract amount is allocated to the service portion of the contract and is recognized monthly over the contract period.

Earnings (loss) per share – Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. There were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented.

Stock-based compensation – The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and the conclusions reached by FASB ASC 505-50, Equity – Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

8

Income taxes – The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and attributable to operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Accounting standards regarding income taxes requires a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is assessed at each reporting period based on a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry forward periods, the Company’s experience with operating loss and tax credit carry forwards not expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives.

The Company recorded valuation allowances on the net deferred tax assets.  Management will reassess the realization of deferred tax assets based on the accounting standards for income taxes each reporting period. To the extent that the financial results of operations improve and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company will be able to reduce the valuation allowance.

Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accounting standards regarding uncertainty in income taxes provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based solely on the technical merits, of being sustained on examinations. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. ASU 2014-10 eliminates the distinction of a development stage entity and certain related disclosure requirements, including the elimination of inception-to-date information on the statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity. The amendments in ASU 2014-10 will be effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those annual periods, however early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2014-10 during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, thereby no longer presenting or disclosing any information required by Topic 915.

3.           GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception and had accumulated a deficit of $151,650 as of September 30, 2014.  The Company requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities.  The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

In order to mitigate the risk related with this uncertainty, the Company plans to issue additional shares of common stock for cash and services during the next 12 months.

4.           STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

5.          RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

On August 5, 2014, the Company entered into a Licensing Agreement (the “Agreement”) with AutoTek Incorporated (“AutoTek”).  Richard Battaglini, the Company’s President, Chairman, and majority shareholder, is also the President and Chairman of AutoTek.

AutoTek is the owner of technology, including software source code, relating to two products designed to assist automobile dealerships: LotWatch and ServiceWatch.  LotWatch provides real-time information relating to each vehicle on a dealer’s lot.  ServiceWatch interfaces with a new vehicle, and provides information to a dealership service department about the vehicle, designed to improve communications between a dealer and a customer, and to provide better service to the customer.  Collectively, LotWatch and ServiceWatch are the “Licensed Technology.”

Pursuant to the Agreement, AutoTek granted to the Company an exclusive, transferable (including sub licensable) worldwide perpetual license of the Licensed Technology, to make, use, iport, lease, and sell products incorporating the Licensed Technology (the “Licensed Products”).  The Company is required to pay to AutoTek royalty payments equal to $10 per ServiceWatch device activated using the Licensed Technology.

The term of the Agreement runs from its execution through the earlier of (A) the execution and closing of the definitive purchase agreement by the parties and providing for the acquisition of all of AutoTek’s issued capital stock or AutoTek’s assets and intellectual property rights related to the source code, or (B) the first annual anniversary of the effective date.

6.          SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Common Stock

Subsequent to September 30, 2014, the Company:

·   issued 25,000 shares of common stock for cash of $12,500;  

·   issued 500,000 shares to a consultant for services valued at $250,000; and  

·   cancelled 78,000,000 shares previously issued to Mr. Battaglini for no consideration.

Registration Statement/Proxy Statement

The Company and AutoTek Incorporated (“AutoTek”) have entered into an Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement (the “APA”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase from AutoTek the assets and intellectual property relating to the source code that was the subject of the License Agreement between the Company and AutoTek.  Pursuant to the APA, the closing of the asset purchase transaction is conditioned on the approval by the shareholders of AutoTek of the sale by AutoTek of the source code assets.  As the purchase price for the source code assets, the Company agreed to pay to AutoTek $30,000 in cash, and to offer to the AutoTek shareholders the right (but not the obligation) to exchange each one share of AutoTek common stock for six (6) shares of the Company’s common stock.

On November 4, 2014, the Company filed a registration statement/proxy statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  The Registration Statement acts as a proxy statement to the AutoTek shareholders, relating to a special shareholder meeting to be held.  The Registration Statement includes information relating to the transaction, the Company, AutoTek’s operations and planned operations following the asset purchase transaction (assuming shareholder approval), as well as information about the officers of the Company, the Company’s development of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products, their deployment to automobile dealerships, and related information about the Company.  The Registration Statement is under review by the SEC.

Change in Shell Company Status

In light of the License Agreement and the APA with AutoTek; the Company’s use of the licensed technology to develop the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products; the Company’s agreements with multiple automobile dealerships for deployment of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products; and the revenues generated by the Company from those products, management of the Company believes that the Company has more than no or nominal operations.  Additionally, the Company has more than no or nominal assets, and has assets that are more than cash or cash equivalents.  As such, the Company has ceased to be a “shell company” as defined in SEC Rule 405 and Rule 12b-2.

Additionally, the information provided in the Registration Statement constitutes “Form 10 information” as required to be filed by SEC Rule 144.  In a Current Report filed with the SEC on November 5, 2014, the Company indicated that it had ceased to be a shell company and that the Company has filed current Form 10 information.

Overview and Highlights

Company Background

ALPINE 4 Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 22, 2014. The Company was in the developmental stage and conducted virtually no business operations.  On August 5, 2014,  the Company entered into a Licensing Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with AutoTek Incorporated (“AutoTek”).  Pursuant to the License Agreement, AutoTek granted to Alpine 4 an exclusive, transferable (including sublicensable) worldwide perpetual license of the source code that could be developed into the LotWatch and ServiceWatch Products, to make, use, iport, lease, and sell products incorporating the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products (the “Licensed Products”).  The Company is required to pay to AutoTek royalty payments equal to $10 per ServiceWatch device activated using the Licensed Technology.

The term of the License Agreement runs from its execution through the earlier of (A) the execution and closing of the definitive purchase agreement by the parties and providing for the acquisition of all of AutoTek’s issued capital stock or AutoTek’s assets and intellectual property rights relating to the source code, or (B) the first annual anniversary of the effective date.  

Following the entry into the Licensing Agreement, the Company and AutoTek negotiated an Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company would purchase the source code asset from AutoTek.  The Company agreed to pay $30,000, and to offer to all of the AutoTek shareholders to issue shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for shares of AutoTek’s stock tendered.  The closing of the asset purchase transaction is conditioned upon receipt of the approval of a majority of the AutoTek shareholders.

The Company filed a registration statement/proxy statement on Form S-4 with the SEC on November 4, 2014.  The registration statement/proxy statement provides information about the Company and the asset purchase transaction to the shareholders of AutoTek, and provides that a special meeting of the AutoTek shareholders will be held where they can vote on the asset purchase transaction.  As of the date of this Report, the registration statement/proxy statement was under review by the SEC.  Following the review by the SEC and assuming that the AutoTek shareholders approve the asset purchase transaction, the Company and AutoTek intend to close the transaction shortly thereafter.

As noted, the Company offered to issue shares of the Company’s common stock to the AutoTek shareholders who elect to exchange their AutoTek shares.  The AutoTek shareholders are not required to exchange their shares, and any AutoTek shareholders who elect to not participate in the share exchange will remain AutoTek shareholders.  The AutoTek shareholders who elect to exchange their shares will receive six (6) shares of the Company’s common stock for each one share of AutoTek stock tendered for exchange.  As of the date of this Report, AutoTek had  25,000,000 shares of stock outstanding.  Assuming that 100% of the shares are exchanged, the Company would have to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock to the AutoTek stockholders.  There can be no guarantee that all of the AutoTek stockholders will exchange their shares, or that the Company will be required to issue the full 150,000,000 shares.  Until the share exchange is completed, the Company cannot determine how many shares of its common stock will be issued to the AutoTek stockholders.

Following the closing of the asset purchase transaction, the intended purpose of the Company is to use the source c code acquired from AutoTek, as well as acquiring other potential businesses, and deploy those assets to the Company’s customer base which consists of automotive dealerships in the United States.  As of the date of this Report, the Company 4 has used AutoTek’s source code (pursuant to the License Agreement) to design, develop and market telematics devices and software for the Automotive Industry.  The Company has begun to deploy a portfolio of consumer and professional software applications, called LotWatch and ServiceWatch to the Company’s customer base.  Further, management anticipates that these products will be sold in the United States from new car automotive dealership stores. The Company’s Chairman and President is an executive officer and former majority shareholder of AutoTek.  

The Company owns no real estate or personal property. The Company selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

On June 24, 2014, the Company appointed Mr. Richard Battaglini as Chairman and President and Mr. Kent B. Wilson as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Business Strategy

The Company is committed to bringing the best user experience to its customers through its innovative telematics hardware, software and services. The Company’s business strategy is to leverage its unique ability to design and develop its own user interface operating systems, and third party hardware and services to provide its customers new products and solutions with superior ease-of-use, seamless integration, and innovative design. The Company believes continual investment in research and development, marketing and advertising is critical to the development and sale of innovative products and technologies. As part of its strategy, following the planned acquisition of certain assets of AutoTek, the Company plans to continue to expand its platform for the discovery and delivery of automotive related businesses, services and products. The Company believes a high-quality buying experience with knowledgeable salespersons who can convey the value of the Company’s products and services greatly enhances its ability to attract and retain customers. Therefore, the Company’s strategy also includes enhancing and expanding its own automotive dealership distribution network to effectively reach more customers and provide them with a high-quality sales and post-sales support experience.

Business Seasonality and Product Introductions

Following the planned acquisition of the AutoTek assets, the Company expects to experience higher net sales in its first and third quarters compared to other quarters in its fiscal year due in part to seasonal holiday demand and the automotive industry model year end that  typically concludes in the third quarter of each year.  Additionally, new automotive models introductions can significantly impact our products ability to communicate properly and therefore product costs and operating expenses may rise. Product introductions can also impact the Company’s net sales to its indirect distribution channels as these channels are filled with new product inventory following a product introduction, and often, channel inventory of a particular product declines as the next related major product launch approaches. Net sales can also be affected when consumers and dealerships anticipate a vehicle introduction.

Results of Operations 

Revenue

Our revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, and from inception to September 30, 2014, were $9,551 and $9,551, respectively.  We began selling our products and services during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, and expect our revenue to grow significantly over the next 12 months.

The revenue generated during the period ending September 30, 2014, was from our LotWatch product.  Revenue was recognized from installation charges of installing our telematics devices at auto dealerships, and revenue was recognized for a monthly access fee for accessing vehicle information from those devices for the month of September.

13

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 and from inception to September 30, 2014, were $158,032 and $161,201, respectively.  We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase significantly over the next 12 months as we ramp up our operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations since inception from the sale of common stock and capital contribution from stockholders.  We expect to continue to finance our operations by selling shares of our common stock and by generating income from the sale of our products.

Management expects to have sufficient working capital for continuing operations from either the sale of its products or through the raising of additional capital through private offerings of our securities.  The Company also may elect to seek bank financing or to engage in debt financing through a placement agent.  If the Company is unable to raise sufficient capital from operations or through sales of its securities or other means, we may need to delay implementation of our business plans.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

The Company has not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities whereby the Company has financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments, or other contingent arrangements that expose the Company to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities, or any other obligation under a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk, or credit risk support to the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and operating results require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of this Form 10-Q describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.

Management believes the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates are those related to revenue recognition, valuation and impairment of marketable securities, inventory valuation and valuation of manufacturing-related assets and estimated purchase commitment cancellation fees, warranty costs, income taxes, and legal and other contingencies. Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception and had accumulated a deficit of $151,650 as of September 30, 2014.  The Company requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities.  The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

In order to mitigate the risk related with this uncertainty, the Company plans to issue additional shares of common stock for cash and services during the next 12 months.

Recent Developments

Registration Statement/Proxy Statement

As noted above, the Company and AutoTek Incorporated (“AutoTek”) have entered into an Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement (the “APA”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase from AutoTek the assets and intellectual property relating to the source code that was the subject of the License Agreement between the Company and AutoTek.  Pursuant to the APA, the closing of the asset purchase transaction is conditioned on the approval by the shareholders of AutoTek of the sale by AutoTek of the source code assets.  As the purchase price for the source code assets, the Company agreed to pay to AutoTek $30,000 in cash, and to offer to the AutoTek shareholders the right (but not the obligation) to exchange each one share of AutoTek common stock for six (6) shares of the Company’s common stock.

On November 4, 2014, the Company filed a registration statement/proxy statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  The Registration Statement acts as a proxy statement to the AutoTek shareholders, relating to a special shareholder meeting to be held.  The Registration Statement includes information relating to the transaction, the Company, AutoTek’s operations and planned operations following the asset purchase transaction (assuming shareholder approval), as well as information about the officers of the Company, the Company’s development of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products, their deployment to automobile dealerships, and related information about the Company.  The Registration Statement is under review by the SEC.

Change in Shell Company Status

In light of the License Agreement and the APA with AutoTek; the Company’s use of the licensed technology to develop the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products; the Company’s agreements with multiple automobile dealerships for deployment of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products; and the revenues generated by the Company from those products, management of the Company believes that the Company has more than no or nominal operations.  Additionally, the Company has more than no or nominal assets, and has assets that are more than cash or cash equivalents.  As such, the Company has ceased to be a “shell company” as defined in SEC Rule 405 and Rule 12b-2.

Additionally, the information provided in the Registration Statement constitutes “Form 10 information” as required to be filed by SEC Rule 144.  In a Current Report filed with the SEC on November 5, 2014, the Company indicated that it had ceased to be a shell company and that the Company has filed current Form 10 information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

None.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, September 30, 2014. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

15

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon that evaluation, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is described below.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of September 30, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we hope to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2014: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out in (i) and (ii) are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2014 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

3.     GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception and had accumulated a deficit of $151,650 as of September 30, 2014.  The Company requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities.  The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

In order to mitigate the risk related with this uncertainty, the Company plans to issue additional shares of common stock for cash and services during the next 12 months.

1. Business Description and Basis of Presentation

1.     DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND HISTORY

Description of business – Alpine 4 Automotive Technologies Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 22, 2014. The Company originally intended to serve as a vehicle to effect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business.  The Company has subsequently entered into a License Agreement with AutoTek Incorporated (“AutoTek”), pursuant to which AutoTek licensed to the Company the right to use certain source code for the development of products.  Subsequent to the entry into the License Agreement, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement with AutoTek, relating to the purchase of the source code asset.  The closing of the transaction is subject to the approval of AutoTek’s shareholders.

On June 27, 2014, the Board of Director and sole stockholder of Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from ALPINE 4 Inc. to Alpine 4 Automotive Technologies Ltd. On that date, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Delaware.

Additionally, on June 30, 2014, the Board of Director and majority stockholder of the Company approved a further amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of common stock from 100,000,000 shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock.  On that date, the officers of the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment relating to the increase in authorized capital with the State of Delaware.

On September 19, 2014, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) with Pure Mobility International Inc. (“PMII”) relating to the proposed purchase by the Company of the outstanding shares of stock of PMII.  Pursuant to the LOI, the Company proposed to purchase 100% of the outstanding shares of PMII for shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company and PMII reserved the right to restructure the acquisition as an asset purchase transaction rather than a share purchase transaction.

Also pursuant to the LOI, the Company and PMII anticipate that the Company will acquire assets of PMII including certain distributor agreements, contracts, accounts receivable, and certain inventory of PMII.  The Company proposed to issue shares of its restricted common stock with an aggregate value of approximately five million dollars ($5,000,000).  The Company and PMII further agreed to negotiate a definitive agreement to set forth the material terms of the transaction, following appropriate due diligence.

The interim financial statements present the balance sheets, statements of operations and cash flows of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The interim financial information is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2014, and the results of operations and cash flows presented herein have been included in the financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year.

Use of estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  These estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information that is currently available to the Company and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 90 days.  Cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality financial institutions and are primarily in money market funds.  The carrying value of those investments approximates fair value. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable, net – The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.

Stock subscription receivable – At September 30, 2014, the Company had a stock subscription receivable in the amount of $12,500 related to the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock.  The amount was collected in October 2014 and has been presented as a current asset in the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheet.

Inventory – Inventory is valued at the lower of the inventory’s cost (weighted average basis) or the current market price of the inventory. Management compares the cost of inventory with its market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue is only recognized when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (3) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

Earnings (loss) per share – Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. There were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented.

Stock-based compensation – The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and the conclusions reached by FASB ASC 505-50, Equity – Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

Income taxes – The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and attributable to operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Accounting standards regarding income taxes requires a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is assessed at each reporting period based on a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry forward periods, the Company’s experience with operating loss and tax credit carry forwards not expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives.

The Company recorded valuation allowances on the net deferred tax assets.  Management will reassess the realization of deferred tax assets based on the accounting standards for income taxes each reporting period. To the extent that the financial results of operations improve and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company will be able to reduce the valuation allowance.

Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accounting standards regarding uncertainty in income taxes provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based solely on the technical merits, of being sustained on examinations. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. ASU 2014-10 eliminates the distinction of a development stage entity and certain related disclosure requirements, including the elimination of inception-to-date information on the statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity. The amendments in ASU 2014-10 will be effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those annual periods, however early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2014-10 during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, thereby no longer presenting or disclosing any information required by Topic 915.

Subsequent to September 30, 2014, the Company:

·         issued 25,000 shares of common stock for cash of $12,500;

·         issued 500,000 shares to a consultant for services valued at $250,000; and

·         cancelled 78,000,000 shares previously issued to Mr. Battaglini for no consideration.

Registration Statement/Proxy Statement

The Company and AutoTek Incorporated (“AutoTek”) have entered into an Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement (the “APA”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase from AutoTek the assets and intellectual property relating to the source code that was the subject of the License Agreement between the Company and AutoTek.  Pursuant to the APA, the closing of the asset purchase transaction is conditioned on the approval by the shareholders of AutoTek of the sale by AutoTek of the source code assets.  As the purchase price for the source code assets, the Company agreed to pay to AutoTek $30,000 in cash, and to offer to the AutoTek shareholders the right (but not the obligation) to exchange each one share of AutoTek common stock for six (6) shares of the Company’s common stock. 

On November 4, 2014, the Company filed a registration statement/proxy statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  The Registration Statement acts as a proxy statement to the AutoTek shareholders, relating to a special shareholder meeting to be held.  The Registration Statement includes information relating to the transaction, the Company, AutoTek’s operations and planned operations following the asset purchase transaction (assuming shareholder approval), as well as information about the officers of the Company, the Company’s development of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products, their deployment to automobile dealerships, and related information about the Company.  The Registration Statement is under review by the SEC.

Change in Shell Company Status

In light of the License Agreement and the APA with AutoTek; the Company’s use of the licensed technology to develop the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products; the Company’s agreements with multiple automobile dealerships for deployment of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products; and the revenues generated by the Company from those products, management of the Company believes that the Company has more than no or nominal operations.  Additionally, the Company has more than no or nominal assets, and has assets that are more than cash or cash equivalents.  As such, the Company has ceased to be a “shell company” as defined in SEC Rule 405 and Rule 12b-2.

Additionally, the information provided in the Registration Statement constitutes “Form 10 information” as required to be filed by SEC Rule 144.  In a Current Report filed with the SEC on November 5, 2014, the Company indicated that it had ceased to be a shell company and that the Company has filed current Form 10 information.

	Form 10-Q for Fiscal Quarter Ended September 30, 2014
	Filed November 19, 2014
	File No. 000-55205

Dear Mssrs. Spirgel, Shapiro, Littlepage, Fischer, and Mastrianna:

This correspondence is in response to your letter dated December 1, 2014 in reference to the filing by Alpine 4 Automotive Technologies Ltd. (the “Company”) of the Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on November 5, 2014, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed on November 19, 2014,

Additionally, for your convenience, the Company has reproduced the comments from the Staff in the order provided followed by the Company’s corresponding response.  All references in the Company’s responses to pages and captioned sections in the applicable reports are to the amended reports.  Capitalized terms used in this letter and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the amended reports.

Form 8-K filed November 5, 2014 General

1. As the transaction between Alpine 4 Automotive Technologies Ltd. (Alpine 4) and AutoTek, Inc. (AutoTek) appears to be a reverse merger between a shell company and a private operating company, please disclose and explain to us how you accounted for the transaction pursuant to ASC 805-40.

Response to Comment No. 1

The Company respectfully disagrees that the proposed transaction, which has not closed and which is subject to approval of the AutoTek shareholders, is a reverse merger.  The Company has reviewed the transaction structure with its professional advisors and among management, and believes that the proposed transaction is the purchase of an asset (software source code) by one company, Alpine 4, from another company, AutoTek.

By way of overview, AutoTek was formed in March 2013 by an individual who is no longer associated with the Company.  Prior to August 5, 2014, AutoTek had assets that consisted of the software source code; cash; certain furniture, fixtures, and equipment (approx. $12,000); and approximately 4,000 units of inventory of an automobile secondary market part, a safety product for cars that has been sold under several brand names, including BrakeSafe and BrakeTek.  This technology was invented by Mr. Battaglini.  As noted in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-4, Mr. Battaglini sold his interest in a prior company that sold and marketed the brake product in 2012.  Mr. Battaglini assigned the BrakeTek product and property to AutoTek when he joined AutoTek.  Mr. Battaglini, through AutoTek, also began development of source code and software but that software code was never completed, and was never integrated into any device.  Mr. Battaglini determined to not pursue the source code technology, but instead to focus on the brake technology safety device.

Alpine 4 was formed in Delaware in April 2014 by an individual no longer affiliated with Alpine 4.  There was no relationship between Alpine 4 and AutoTek at the time of the formation of Alpine 4.  In June 2014, Mr. Battaglini and Mr. Wilson became officers of Alpine 4 in connection with the purchase by Mr. Battaglini of the outstanding shares of Alpine 4.  Subsequently, AutoTek entered into a license agreement, pursuant to which AutoTek licensed to Alpine 4 the source code and software.

Pursuant to the License Agreement, Alpine 4 completed the development of the software, and integrated the software into devices which can be plugged into an automobile’s OBD (onboard diagnostics) port, and through both GPS and cellular based service, can provide detailed information about a vehicle’s status to automobile dealerships, service departments, and vehicle owners.  As noted, at the time of the license agreement, the source code was not completed, did not have any capability to function, and was not integrated into any device.  Following the License Agreement, Alpine 4 completed the development of the software, worked to integrate the completed software into hardware/devices, arranged for the manufacture of these devices, and began contacting automobile dealerships to sell the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products and services.  Pursuant to the License Agreement, Alpine 4 is required to pay royalties to AutoTek for the use of the software source code.

2. Please provide the information required by Items 2.01, 5.01, and 9.01 for the periods specified in S-X 8-04 for AutoTek, Inc.

Response to Comment No. 2

The Company respectfully notes that the proposed Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement (the “APA”) between AutoTek and Alpine 4, and the proposed transactions described therein, are subject to the approval of the AutoTek shareholders, which had not been obtained as of the date of the filing of the Current Report.  As such, no sale of assets has been completed for AutoTek, no acquisition of assets has occurred for Alpine 4, and no change of control has occurred for either entity.

AutoTek and Alpine 4 have filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4, which is concurrently under review by the Staff.  Once that Registration Statement has been declared effective, AutoTek will fix a record date, mail the proxy statement to its shareholders, and hold the special meeting to seek shareholder approval of the sale of its source code asset to Alpine 4.  If the AutoTek shareholders approve the transaction, Alpine 4 will proceed with the Share Exchange, pursuant to which AutoTek stockholders have the right, but not the obligation to exchange their shares of AutoTek common stock for shares of Alpine 4 common stock.  There can be no way of determining the ownership of AutoTek, if any, that Alpine 4 will acquire in connection with the Share Exchange until it has been completed.  At that time, Alpine 4 will disclose its ownership in AutoTek acquired through the Share Exchange.

Item 5.06. Change in Shell Company Status, page 2

3. We note your disclosure at Item 5.06 and elsewhere in your document that you believe you have exited shell company status as a result of entering into the licensing agreement, as well as your statement that “the company has more than no or nominal operations and more than no or nominal assets, and has assets that are more than cash or cash equivalents.” Please provide us with the analysis whereby you determined that you are no longer a shell company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Response to Comment No. 3

Rule 12b-2 defines a “shell company” as follows:

The term shell company means a registrant, other than an asset-backed issuer as defined in Item 1101(b) of Regulation AB (§ 229.1101(b) of this chapter), that has:

(1) No or nominal operations; and

(2) Either:

(i) No or nominal assets;

(ii) Assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or

(iii) Assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets.

As noted in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed by the Company and which is referenced in the Current Report on Form 8-K, on August 5, 2014, the Company entered into the License Agreement with AutoTek.  Following the entry into the License Agreement, the Company completed the development of the licensed source code to make it compatible with the Company’s ODB II devices.  As of the date of the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement, Alpine 4 had agreements with two manufacturers for the on-board diagnostic devices that will use the LotWatch and ServiceWatch source code.  The creation of the devices and the agreements for the manufacturing of the devices was done through the Company and its vendors, and  not through AutoTek.  As discussed in more detail in the S-4, following the License Agreement, the Company began implementation and deployment of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products, and as of the date of the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement, had completed installations in four automobile dealerships, and was in negotiations with numerous additional dealerships regarding installation agreements.

As such, through the use of the technology pursuant to the License Agreement, the Company had assets consisting of inventory of the devices, accounts receivable for the revenues from the agreements with the dealerships, as well as growing operations.  Management of the Company disclosed this information in the S-4, and referenced the disclosures in the Form 8-K filed to disclose that the Company was no longer a shell company.

Revenue Recognition

5. Please tell us and disclose the nature of your products and services, principal customers, and the earnings process. If your revenue arrangements contain multiple deliverables within the scope of ASC 605-25-15, please advise us how your account for them and provide the disclosures of ASC 605-25-50.

Response to Comment No. 5

The Company has two products: LotWatch and ServiceWatch.  LotWatch is a service sold to car dealerships that provides to dealerships vehicle-specific, real-time, accurate information about the current fleet of vehicles on their lots.  The Company charges an installation fee and charges each dealership a monthly fee based on the number of vehicles on the dealership’s lot.  The Company invoices each dealership at the end of each months in arrears.  Revenue for each dealership is recognized monthly based on the number of vehicles on the dealership’s lot.

ServiceWatch is a service that the dealerships sell to new car buyers.  The contract includes installing the Company’s hardware into the on board diagnostic port in the vehicle, which provides the car buyer and dealership with information about that vehicle during the service period of the contract, which is generally 2-3 years.  The Company allocates the cost of the contract between the hardware and the service contract.  The revenue from the hardware is recognized when the contract is sold and the revenue for the service contract is recognized monthly over the contract period of generally 2-3 years.  The revenue allocated to the hardware comprises the cost of the hardware plus a reasonable profit on the sale of the hardware, plus a factor for selling and commissions.  The balance of the contract amount is allocated to the service portion of the contract and is recognized monthly over the contract period.

6. Please tell us your consideration of the accounting guidance of ASC 985-605 for software revenue recognition relative to your products.

Response to Comment No. 6

The software that the Company has developed is used in its products that it sells to its customers.  The Company does not sell software directly to its customers. Therefore, Management believes that the guidance of ASC 985-605 is not applicable.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations, Revenue, page 13

7. Please expand on your discussion of the products sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, to address whether these represent sales of licenses or products developed by your company or from third parties.

Response to Comment No. 7

The Company has amended the Results of Operations section to clarify that the sales in the quarter ended September 30, 2014, were for services, consisting of installation charges and a monthly access fee.  The Company included the following language:

The revenue generated during the period ending September 30, 2014, was from our LotWatch product.  Revenue was recognized from installation charges of installing our telematics devices at auto dealerships, and revenue was recognized for a monthly access fee for accessing vehicle information from those devices for the month of September.

Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 14

8. Please expand your disclosure to explain whether management expects to have sufficient working capital and liquidity for the next twelve months as well as alternative plans in the event you are unable to sell additional shares of common stock or generate enough cash flows from operations to support your planned business operations.

Response to Comment No. 8

The Company has revised its disclosures in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section to clarify its sources for capital (operations or sales of securities) as well as the potential consequences if the Company is not able to generate or raise sufficient operating capital.  The Company revised the paragraph to read as follows:

Management expects to have sufficient working capital to suffice continuing operations from either the sale of its products or through the raising of additional capital through private offerings of our securities.  The Company also may elect to seek bank financing or to engage in debt financing through a placement agent.  If the Company is unable to raise sufficient capital from operations or through sales of its securities or other means, we may need to delay implementation of our business plans.

Other

9. We note an announcement dated November 18, 2014, on Alpine 4’s website that the company has entered into an agreement with a New York investment banking firm for a $50,000,000 public shelf offering and a $50,000,000 debt placement. To date, no Form 8-K has been filed under Item 1.01, Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, with respect to this agreement(s). Please advise.

Response to Comment No. 9

As discussed more fully in response to Comment No. 10 below, the Company has terminated the agreements with the investment banking firm that related to the public shelf offering, which was referenced in the announcement.  As noted below, the Company acknowledges that the posting of the details relating to the public offering agreement was incorrectly done, and as such, the Company and the investment banking firm have determined to terminate that agreement.  Pursuant to the debt placement agreement (the “Debt Placement Agreement”), the investment banking firm will assist the Company in connection with the Company’s future acquisitions of assets or companies, on a case-by-case basis, and will assist in locating investors in the Company to provide capital to complete proposed acquisitions.  The Debt Placement Agreement relates only to the private offering of securities by the investment banking firm on behalf of the Company, and does not relate to any public offering of any securities.  The Company will file a new Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the terms of the Debt Placement Agreement.

10. In addition, please tell us in your response letter how this communication is consistent with Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, in particular Rule 135 promulgated thereunder.

Response to Comment No. 10

The Company has reviewed Section 5 of the Securities Act and Rule 135.  The Company acknowledges that the posting of the announcement on its website was incorrectly done because it omitted certain items required by Rule 135, including a statement that it did not constitute an offer of any securities for sale, any applicable state law required language, or the anticipated timing of the offering.  The Company omitted the name of the investment banking firm (as required by Rule 135), as well as any specifics about the offerings referenced other than the title, amount, and basic terms of the offerings (as permitted by Rule 135).  In posting the information to its website, the Company was intending only to announce that it had entered into an agreement with a potential funding source that could help the Company to implement its business plan, and erroneously included information about future offerings.

By way of background and information, the Company posted the announcement to its website on November 20, 2014, and the Company removed the announcement on December 1, 2014.  The announcement was not made as a press release for general distribution, and did not go out over the wires to a broader audience.  The Company acknowledges that the announcement was available to the public between November 20, 2014, and December 1, 2014.  During that time, however, the Company recorded only five (5) page views of the announcement.  One was by the Company officer who posted the announcement to confirm that it displayed correctly.  Another likely was a member of the SEC staff.  A third was by a potential employee of the Company, who confirmed to management that he had reviewed the website and the “announcements” page.  Management believes that the fourth was by an automobile dealership with whom the Company was discussing a potential business relationship relating to the deployment of the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products (i.e. no investment relationship involved).  Management believes that the remaining page view likely was either by an employee of the Company or a company or entity with which the Company is doing business or is seeking business relationships.  The Company has not received any communications relating to any proposed offerings by the Company.

The Company also wishes to note, as disclosed in response to Comment No. 9 above, that the Company has terminated the agreement with the investment bank relating to the public offering, and as such, there currently exists no agreement between the Company and the investment banking firm to participate in a $50,000,000 public shelf offering.  As noted above in response to Comment No. 9, the Debt Placement Agreement between the Company and the investment banking firm relates solely to the private placement by the investment banking firm of debt securities on behalf of the Company, in connection with potential acquisitions by the Company.

Moreover, the Company notes that its stock is not currently trading and was not trading at the time the Company posted the announcement to its website, and that as of the date of this letter, the Company has not yet begun the process of seeking to have its shares listed for trading on an exchange or trading facility. Although the Company previously was participating in a small private offering, as referenced in the Form D filed with the SEC on December 2, 2014, the Company is not currently raising funds in that offering, and any sales in that offering were closed more than one month prior to the posting of the announcement on the Company’s website.

The Company currently has no plans to participate in any public offering of its stock.  The Company may contemplate a future registered public offering, but not until the Company has been able to complete the proposed Asset Purchase Transaction (which is the subject of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 and the subject of a separate comment letter from the Staff), and has been able to develop its business.  The Company presently has no agreement with any investment banking firm to conduct any public offering on the terms disclosed in the announcement.

In summary, while the Company’s announcement improperly omitted certain language required by Rule 135 so that the announcement would not have been deemed to be an offer, the Company believes that the extremely limited number of views of the announcement prior to its removal, combined with the fact that the Company is not planning to conduct a public shelf offering and has terminated the prior agreement relating to the public offering, together with the lack of public market for the Company’s stock help mitigate the Company’s erroneous posting of its plans for future offerings of its securities.

Conclusion

The Company acknowledges the following:

o The Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing;

o Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and

o The Company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
