Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

On March 7, 2013, Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. (the “Company”) issued an aggregate of 9,450,000 shares of its common stock, $0.001 par value, in a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). All shares in the private placement were offered and sold for a purchase price of $1.00 per share.

  

The Company offered the securities in reliance on the statutory exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, including Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The Company relied on this exemption based on the fact that all investors in the securities were accredited investors. The securities offered and sold in the private placement are not registered under the Securities Act, and therefore may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. The disclosure about the private placement contained in this report does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company, and is made only as required under applicable rules for filing current reports with the SEC, and as permitted under Rule 135c of the Securities Act.
