February 26, 2008, press release, a March 13, 2008, Current Report on 
Form 8-K and a May 15, 2008, news article, all of which are available 
on e-Smart's Web site; and (2) e-Smart's failure to make required 
periodic filings with the Commission of information required pursuant 
to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for any period since the period 
ending September 30, 2007. Questions have also arisen concerning a 
possible distribution of e-Smart's common stock without registration 
under the Securities Act of 1933.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the 
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the 
securities of the above-listed company.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the securities of the
