The Registrant believes that withdrawal of the Form 15 is consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors. The Registrant is withdrawing the Form 15 because on or about March 15, 2013, the Registrant was contacted by the Commission informing it that, notwithstanding the Registrant’s filing of the Form 15, the Registrant must nevertheless file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “ 2012 Form 10-K ”).

 

Pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 12g-4(b), the Registrant intends to file the 2012 Form 10-K within 60 days from when it was contacted by the Commission.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Ceres Ventures, Inc., has caused this certification/notice to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned duly authorized person.
