ITEM 8.01        OTHER EVENTS.

         As of July 17,2006, Amaru, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company")
commenced its private placement of 2,000,000 shares of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $1.50 per share for a total purchase
price of $3,000,000 to accredited investors only. This is a new private
placement which does not include the previously reported sales in our reports
filed on Forms 8-K. The Company plans to use the proceeds of its offering for
working capital and business expansion of new projects.

         The shares are to be offered and sold by the Company to investors whom
the Company had reasonable grounds to believe were "accredited investors" within
the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"). The issuance of the shares is believed to be
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by reason of
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations, including
Regulation D and/or Regulation S thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not
involving a public offering.





                                   SIGNATURES

         Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act or 1934,
the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.

Dated: July 17, 2006                        AMARU, INC.
