Item 1.   Security and Issuer
 
This statement relates to the Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Single Touch Systems Inc. (the “Issuer”).  The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 100 Town Square Place, Suite 204, Jersey City, NJ 07310.

Item 2.   Identity and Background

This statement is being filed by Stephen D. Baksa (“Baksa”), a US citizen.  His residence address is 2 Woods Lane, Chatham, NJ 07928.

Baksa’s principal occupation or employment is as an advisor/consultant to The Vertical Group, a private equity and venture capital firm focused on the fields of medical technology and biotechnology.  The address of The Vertical Group is 25 DeForest Avenue, Summit, NJ 07901.

During the last five years, Baksa has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
Baksa used $500,000 of his personal funds to acquire the overlying Convertible Promissory Note/Warrants unit on November 14, 2011; to exercise the Warrants within such unit for cash would require an additional $250,000, which would also be provided from his personal funds. The other securities described in the response to Item 5(a) below also were or would be acquired using his personal funds.
 
Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction

Baksa notes that he is a Director of the Issuer, but the purpose of the acquisition of securities of the Issuer was investment. Except for his preexisting status as a holder of Issuer stock options and warrants, Baksa does not currently have any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer
 
(a) Baksa beneficially owns 7,865,034 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  This amount represents (i) 4,847,702 shares of outstanding Common Stock directly owned, (ii) 917,332 shares of outstanding Common Stock owned as trustee, (iii) 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a convertible promissory note dated November 14, 2011, (iv) 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a warrant dated November 14, 2011 with an exercise price of $0.25 per share, and (v) 100,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a warrant dated July 16, 2010 with an exercise price of $1.00  per share.

Baksa did not effect any transactions in the Common Stock during the 60 days before November 14, 2011 (or during the past 60 days). The November 14, 2011 transaction was a private placement transaction by the Issuer.  The November 1, 2011 was a grant under the Issuer’s 2010 Stock Plan and was registered under a Form S-8 registration statement.  The Convertible Promissory Note, the Warrants and the stock options are further described in the response to Item 6 below.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) Not applicable.
 
Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
 
Baksa’s $500,000 Convertible Promissory Note was issued by the Issuer to Baksa on November 14, 2011.  The Convertible Promissory Note bears 10% interest, has a one-year term, and is convertible, at the option of the holder, into Common Stock of the Issuer at $0.50 per share.

Baksa’s 1,000,000 Warrants are governed by a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock dated November 14, 2011 between the Issuer and Baksa.  The Warrants have a three-year term and a $0.25 exercise price per share.

Baksa’s 200,000 stock options are governed by a Notice of Stock Option Grant / Stock Option Agreement dated November 1, 2011 between the Issuer and Baksa.  The stock options have a five-year term and a $0.225 exercise price per share.  The stock options vest in one lump amount one year after they are granted, subject to continuation of service.  Such stock options shall, if vested on the date of cessation of service, remain exercisable until the earlier of the scheduled expiration date or 18 months after the cessation of service, whichever is sooner.

Baksa’s 100,000 earlier Warrants are governed by a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock dated July 16, 2010 between the Issuer and Baksa.  The Warrants have a three-year term and a $1.00 exercise price per share.

Baksa and the Issuer entered into a director engagement letter agreement dated November 1, 2011, pursuant to which the Issuer stated that it expects to provide him and other outside directors, for service on the Board, an annual grant of 200,000 five-year stock options under the Issuer’s 2010 Stock Plan, which annual options would vest in one lump amount one year after they are granted, subject to continuation of service.  Such stock options would, if vested on the date of cessation of service, remain exercisable until the earlier of the scheduled expiration date or 18 months after the cessation of service, whichever is sooner.
 
Except for such agreements, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, between Baksa and any other person.
