Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement


On January 18, 2011, Hotgate Technology, Inc. (the “Company”), through Shanghai Hongsheng Net Telecommunications Company Limited (“REDtone”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, signed a Term Sheet with Shanghai QianYue Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“QIT”) in respect to the proposed investment in Shanghai Qianyue Business Administration Co., Ltd. (“QBA”) (the “Term Sheet”).


Pursuant to the Term Sheet, for cash consideration of RMB 7.9 million, REDtone will acquire the entire paid-up share capital of QBA amounting to RMB 10 million.  QBA is an established prepaid shopping-card issuer in Shanghai.


The conditions precedent as stipulated in the Term Sheet are that the result of due diligence findings as completed by the Company by February 28, 2011, will support the following: the net book value of QBA’s fixed assets (inclusive software) must be at least RMB 1.2 million, which must be supported by relevant documents; QBA must have designated a reserve locked in by the banks to meet future payment obligations of at least RMB 2 million, which must be supported by proof; and the sales value for the prepaid shopping cards for the financial year ended December 31, 2010, carry a value of approximately RMB 90 million (the “Conditions Precedent”).  Furthermore, all the liabilities/obligations that existed or occurred on or before the date REDtone becomes an official shareholder belong to QIT.


The Term Sheet must be approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.   Within five days after the signing of the Term Sheet, the Company will be required to pay RMB 200,000, in the form of an earnest deposit to QIT.  If the due diligence conducted by the Company uncovers undisclosed financial risks/exposures exceeding RMB 200,000, or a variance of more than twenty percent of any of the Conditions Precedent, the Company has the right to terminate the Term Sheet and the earnest deposit will be refunded to the Company within five business days.  If the Term Sheet is terminated by the Company for any other reason, the earnest deposit will not be refundable.


After the due diligence has been conducted, but no later than March 10, 2011, pursuant to the Term Sheet the parties will enter into and execute a Share Sales and Purchase Agreement.
