Item 9.01                    Financial Statements and Exhibits.

Independence Resources Plc announces an update on the status of the lawsuit filed against the Company by Miller Tabak + Co., LLC.

Miller Tabak filed a lawsuit against the Company in New York Supreme Court, claiming that it was owed a "Transaction Fee" for the above transaction under its engagement letter with Senetek.  The trial judge granted summary judgment to Miller Tabak on its breach of contract claim, and awarded it $250,000 plus statutory interest in the amount of $56,219, and 133,333 ordinary shares of the Company.

The Company subsequently appealed the trial court's decision to the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division. On June 17, 2014, the appellate court issued a decision reversing the Trial Court and dismissing the case on the grounds that (1) under the engagement letter, Miller Tabak had no right to a Transaction Fee for an acquisition by the Company, but only for sale transactions; and (2) in any event, no fee was earned because the deal at issue never closed.
