monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for: (i) breach of the directors&#146; duty of loyalty; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
the law, (iii) the unlawful payment of a dividend or unlawful stock purchase or redemption, and (iv) any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. Delaware law does not permit a corporation to eliminate a
director&#146;s duty of care, and this provision of our Certificate of Incorporation has no effect on the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunction or rescission, based upon a director&#146;s breach of the duty of care. </FONT><FONT

any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference to this Registration Statement; (2) that, for the purpose of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. </FONT></P>
<P>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<FONT size=2 face="serif">B. The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the 1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. </FONT></P>
<P>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<FONT size=2 face="serif">C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Company has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P>

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Authorized Capital Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorize us to issue 205,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share and 5,000,000 shares of blank check
preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.
Description of Common Stock
The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be
approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of Common Stock that are present in person or represented by proxy, subject to any voting rights granted to holders of
any preferred stock. Except as otherwise provided by law, and subject to any voting rights granted to holders of any preferred stock, amendments to the Articles of Incorporation generally must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be
cast by all outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Articles of Incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock created by the Board
from time to time, the Common Stock holders will be entitled to such cash dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board from funds available. Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock, upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the Common Stock holders will be entitled to receive pro rata all assets available for distribution to such holders.

Single Touch Systems, Inc. - Form S-8
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Our Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for
monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for: (i) breach of the directors' duty of loyalty; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
the law, (iii) the unlawful payment of a dividend or unlawful stock purchase or redemption, and (iv) any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. Delaware law does not permit a corporation to eliminate a
director's duty of care, and this provision of our Certificate of Incorporation has no effect on the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunction or rescission, based upon a director's breach of the duty of care.
The effect of the foregoing is to require us to indemnify our officers and directors for any claim arising against our directors and officers in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner
that he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
INSOFAR AS INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES MAY BE PERMITTED TO OUR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND CONTROLLING PERSONS PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS, OR OTHERWISE, WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT IN THE OPINION OF THE SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION THIS TYPE OF INDEMNIFICATION IS AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY AND IS, THEREFORE, UNENFORCEABLE.

Item 9. Undertakings
A. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:(i) to include
any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference to this Registration Statement; (2) that, for the purpose of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
B. The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the 1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Company has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
