Form S-1 Registration Statement | ||
File No. 333-164578 |
Dear Ms. Mills-Apeuteng:
In response to your letter of comments dated February 24, 2010, please be advised as follows:
General
1. Again, Surna Inc. is not a blank check corporation. Section 7(b)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) defines the term “blank check company” to mean, any development stage company that is issuing a penny stock that, “(A) has no specific plan or purpose, or (B) has indicated that its business plan is to merge with an unidentified company or companies.”
Surna Inc. has a specific plan and purpose. Its business purpose is to develop software products. Its specific plan is the same. In fact in Securities Act Release No. 6932 which adopted rules relating to blank check offerings, the Commission stated in II DISCUSSION OF THE RULES, A. Scope of Rule 419, that, “Rule 419 does not apply to offerings by small businesses ... where a detailed plan of business is developed.... Likewise, start-up companies with specific business plans are not subject to Rule 419, even if operations have not commenced at the time of the offering.” If start-up companies were subject to Rule 419, all start-up businesses would be consider ed blank check companies.
Further, Surna Inc. has not indicated in any manner whatsoever, that is plans to merge with an unidentified company or companies. Its plan, again, is to develop software products.
Accordingly, Surna Inc. is not a blank check corporation as defined in section 7(b)(3) of the Act and is not subject to the provisions or Rule 419 of the Act.
