ITEM 1.02 
Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On July 22, 2011, the board of directors of the Company, after ongoing analysis of Wits Holdings Pty Ltd. (“Wits”), has decided to terminate the agreement and abandon the transaction.  The board decided to terminate the agreement as a result of a substantial increase in capital equipment undertaken by Wits during the 2010 calendar year. Wits increased their rolling stock through a 30% purchase of new equipment under tax incentives then available. The resulting balance of debt to equity and the potential change on the return on asset value was not considered by our board to be in line with Roadship's future plans. Nonetheless, there is a possibility that the Wits transaction will be revisited sometime in the future.
 
On July 22, 2011, the board of directors of the Company, after due consideration has decided to unwind the acquisition of Reefco Logistics Inc. (“Reefco”).  The decision to unwind the transaction was made as a result of several problems that were uncovered while we attempted to audit Reefco.  The due diligence committee for the acquisition is continuing to analyze the situation with a view  towards resolving Reefco's auditing problems, however due to the stringent regulatory requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission we are unable to proceed at this time.
 
The acquisition of Royans Brisbane Pty Ltd is continuing to progress and we hope to close on or about September 22, 2011.
