&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides for the indemnification of officers, directors and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify
such persons under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Article&nbsp;XII of our amended and restated articles of
incorporation provides for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the extent and under the circumstances permitted by Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada
Revised Statutes. In addition, pursuant to a severance agreement with Gregory L. Hrncir, our former secretary, we agreed to indemnify Mr.&nbsp;Hrncir for any actions taken by him on behalf of the
Company prior to November&nbsp;30, 2000 to the extent provided for in our bylaws. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition to the indemnification of officers and directors under the Nevada Revised Statutes, we entered into indemnification agreements with Dr.&nbsp;Alan C. Ashton on
August&nbsp;17, 1999 and with John J. Prehn on May&nbsp;31, 2000, both outside directors of the Company. Pursuant to these indemnification agreements, we agreed to hold harmless and indemnify each
of them against any and all expenses incurred by them as a result of their positions as directors of the Company. In addition, we agreed to advance expenses incurred by each of them upon receipt of a
written request for such advancement containing an unsecured undertaking by each of them to repay such amounts to the extent that they are held to not be entitled to indemnification from the Company.
The advancement of expenses specifically excludes amounts for judgments, penalties, fines and settlements. Messrs.&nbsp;Ashton and Prehn each possess the right to indemnification if, in civil
proceedings, they acted in good faith and in a manner that they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, in criminal proceedings, they had no reasonable
cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. In addition, the Company may elect to not indemnify Messrs.&nbsp;Ashton and Prehn if either a majority of the directors not involved in the relevant
proceeding or independent legal counsel, in a written opinion, determine that they have not met the relevant standards for indemnification. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;28, 1999, we entered into an indemnification agreement with Donnelly Prehn which indemnifies Mr.&nbsp;Prehn for actions to be taken by him as a director on
behalf of RSi BRE, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("RSi BRE"). Pursuant to this indemnification agreement, the Company and RSi BRE, jointly and severally, agreed to hold harmless and
indemnify Mr.&nbsp;Prehn against any and all expenses incurred by him as a result of his position as a director of eRoomSystem Technologies. In addition, we agreed to advance expenses incurred by
Mr.&nbsp;Prehn upon receipt of a written request for such advancement containing an unsecured undertaking by Mr.&nbsp;Prehn to repay such amounts to the extent that Mr.&nbsp;Prehn held to not be
entitled to indemnification from the Company. Mr.&nbsp;Prehn's rights to indemnification are only available if damages have not already been paid directly to Mr.&nbsp;Prehn by an insurance carrier
maintained by either the Company or RSi BRE. Mr.&nbsp;Prehn is not entitled to indemnification if he is adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to have engaged in
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, if he received an improper personal benefit, or if a court of competent jurisdiction renders a final decisions that such indemnification is
unlawful. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Even
though indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be provided to certain directors and officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been
informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. </FONT></P>

* The documents containing the information specified in Part I of Form S-8 will be sent or given to employees as specified by
Rule 428(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). In accordance with the Note to Part I of Form S-8, such documents will not be filed

Securities Act. These documents and the documents incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement pursuant to Item 3 of Part II of this Registration Statement, taken together,
constitute a prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act.
PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
The following material previously filed by eRoomSystem Technologies, Inc. (the "Company" or "Registrant") with the Commission pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") are incorporated herein by reference:
1.
The
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Commission on April 2, 2001. The Company's Annual Report contains the Company's balance sheets as of
December 31, 1999 and 2000 and related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 1999 and 2000, together with the report
thereon of Hansen, Barnett & Maxwell, independent public accountants.
2.
The
description of the Common Stock of the Company contained in the Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed on July 14, 2000 and any amendment or report
filed for the purpose of updating such description.
All
documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to
this Registration Statement which indicates that all of the shares of Company's common stock offered have been sold or which deregisters all of such shares then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated herein by reference and to be part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Item 4 is not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Item 5 is not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's 2000 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "Plan") provides that no member of the committee charged with the administration of the Plan shall be
liable for any act or failure to act taken in good faith with respect to the Plan, any option, or any right to acquire shares of Common Stock under the Plan. The Plan further provides that service on
the committee shall constitute service as a director of the Company so that a member of the committee shall be entitled to indemnification and
reimbursement as a director of the Company to the full extent allowable under its governing instruments and applicable law.
2
Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides for the indemnification of officers, directors and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify
such persons under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Article XII of our amended and restated articles of
incorporation provides for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the extent and under the circumstances permitted by Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada
Revised Statutes. In addition, pursuant to a severance agreement with Gregory L. Hrncir, our former secretary, we agreed to indemnify Mr. Hrncir for any actions taken by him on behalf of the
Company prior to November 30, 2000 to the extent provided for in our bylaws.
In
addition to the indemnification of officers and directors under the Nevada Revised Statutes, we entered into indemnification agreements with Dr. Alan C. Ashton on
August 17, 1999 and with John J. Prehn on May 31, 2000, both outside directors of the Company. Pursuant to these indemnification agreements, we agreed to hold harmless and indemnify each
of them against any and all expenses incurred by them as a result of their positions as directors of the Company. In addition, we agreed to advance expenses incurred by each of them upon receipt of a
written request for such advancement containing an unsecured undertaking by each of them to repay such amounts to the extent that they are held to not be entitled to indemnification from the Company.
The advancement of expenses specifically excludes amounts for judgments, penalties, fines and settlements. Messrs. Ashton and Prehn each possess the right to indemnification if, in civil
proceedings, they acted in good faith and in a manner that they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, in criminal proceedings, they had no reasonable
cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. In addition, the Company may elect to not indemnify Messrs. Ashton and Prehn if either a majority of the directors not involved in the relevant
proceeding or independent legal counsel, in a written opinion, determine that they have not met the relevant standards for indemnification.
On
September 28, 1999, we entered into an indemnification agreement with Donnelly Prehn which indemnifies Mr. Prehn for actions to be taken by him as a director on
behalf of RSi BRE, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("RSi BRE"). Pursuant to this indemnification agreement, the Company and RSi BRE, jointly and severally, agreed to hold harmless and
indemnify Mr. Prehn against any and all expenses incurred by him as a result of his position as a director of eRoomSystem Technologies. In addition, we agreed to advance expenses incurred by
Mr. Prehn upon receipt of a written request for such advancement containing an unsecured undertaking by Mr. Prehn to repay such amounts to the extent that Mr. Prehn held to not be
entitled to indemnification from the Company. Mr. Prehn's rights to indemnification are only available if damages have not already been paid directly to Mr. Prehn by an insurance carrier
maintained by either the Company or RSi BRE. Mr. Prehn is not entitled to indemnification if he is adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to have engaged in
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, if he received an improper personal benefit, or if a court of competent jurisdiction renders a final decisions that such indemnification is
unlawful.
Even
though indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be provided to certain directors and officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been
informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act 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 Securities 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 additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
(2)
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities 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.
(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)
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant 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 Registrant 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 whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(c)
The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to
4
Section 13(a)
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange 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.
5
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Las
Vegas, State of Nevada, on April 23, 2001.
