Jupiter Gold Corporation ("Jupiter Gold") is a newly-formed corporation. Our initial revenues come from alluvial gold produced from the operation of our first gold retrieval unit ("GRU"). Our focus is to grow our revenues from GRUs by expanding the number and quality of such machines that we deploy. In addition, and separately, we own six mineral rights for gold in Brazil, all of which are in known locations for gold. We intend to research and develop, partner, or otherwise monetize such assets in the medium term.

We have our principal offices at Rua Vereador João Alves Praes nº 95-A, city of Olhos D'Água, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, CEP 39.398-000. Our telephone number is +55-31-3956-1109.

Our History

We were incorporated under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands on July 27, 2016.

On July 27, 2016, Jupiter Gold signed four agreements with Brazil Minerals, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Brazil Minerals"): a Stock Purchase and Sale Agreement ("Stock Agreement"), a Gold Retrieval Unit Deployment and Revenue Split Agreement ("GRU Agreement"),  a Service Agreement ("Service Agreement") and a Registration Rights Agreement. These agreements are summarized below and have been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 of which this prospectus comprises a part.

Stock Agreement

The Stock Agreement provided for Jupiter Gold to acquire from Brazil Minerals 99.99% of Mineração Jupiter Ltda. ("MJL"), a Brazilian company. Prior to this acquisition, MJL held title to two minerals rights for manganese. These two manganese mineral rights will be transferred out of MJL into a company to be designated by Brazil Minerals. In exchange for this 99.99% stake in MJL and the receipt of $4,000 from Brazil Minerals, Jupiter Gold transferred 4 million of its common shares to Brazil Minerals and entered into a registration rights agreement with Brazil Minerals for such shares. Additionally, Jupiter Gold agreed in the Stock Agreement that any mineral project in which MJL is involved with, and that accrues any revenues or dividends (in cash, stock, or otherwise), shall be subject to a ten percent (10%) annual royalty stream ("Royalty Stream") due to Brazil Minerals. The Royalty Stream will be calculated on the amounts actually received by MJL and/or Jupiter Gold, and shall be paid within thirty (30) days of any such receipt.

GRU Agreement

The GRU Agreement provides that Jupiter Gold has the right to place its gold retrieved units (each a "GRU" and collectively "GRUs") in mineral rights areas for gold in Brazil owned by Brazil Minerals (the "Gold Rights"). Pursuant to the GRU Agreement, Brazil Minerals shall periodically present to Jupiter Gold a list of its available Gold Rights which meet the necessary Brazilian mining and environmental regulations for mining of gold, and for which Brazil Minerals has the necessary operational infrastructure (the "Permissible Gold Rights"). Jupiter Gold shall periodically choose from the Permissible Gold Rights, the one or more areas in which to place one or more GRUs.

Pursuant to the GRU Agreement, Jupiter Gold may periodically request that one or more GRUs be moved from any of the Permissible Gold Rights to another. Brazil Minerals shall use its best efforts to comply with each such request within 30 days thereafter.  Brazil Minerals will solely operate all of the GRUs placed with Brazil Minerals, and will use its best efforts so as to not cause any damage to such GRUs, except for normal wear and tear. All revenues derived from the sale of gold obtained by the operation of GRUs shall be promptly split 50% to Jupiter Gold and 50% to Brazil Minerals. The GRU Agreement may be terminated by either Jupiter Gold upon 30 (thirty) days' advance written notice, or by Brazil Minerals effective immediately upon written notice if and when Brazil Minerals does not control any Permissible Gold Rights .

Service Agreement

Pursuant to the Service Agreement, Jupiter Gold has the ability to use offices and local personnel affiliated with Brazil Minerals, in exchange for a $2,500 monthly fee and reimbursement of other reasonable expenses. The purpose of the agreement is to allow Jupiter Gold to operate in Brazil while it does not develop any significant infrastructure of its own.

Jupiter Gold may terminate this Service Agreement at any time upon 90 (ninety) days' advance notice to Brazil Minerals, or may terminate for cause (which for the purposes of the Service Agreement means the breach of this Service Agreement by Brazil Minerals, or the gross negligence or malfeasance of Brazil Minerals in the performance of the Service Agreement), at any time without the need for advance notice. Brazil Minerals may terminate the Service Agreement at any time upon 90 (ninety) days' advance notice to Jupiter Gold, or may terminate for lack of any or full payment without the need for advance notice if such non-payment is not cured within 30 days.

Registration Rights Agreement

The Registration Rights Agreement provides that whenever Jupiter Gold proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration and contemplated disposition of Registrable Securities (a "Piggyback Registration"), Jupiter Gold will give prompt written notice to Brazil Minerals of its intention to effect such a registration so that such notice is received by Brazil Minerals at least twenty (20) days before the anticipated filing date.  Jupiter Gold will include in such registration all securities covered by the Registration Agreement ("Registrable Securities") with respect to which Jupiter Gold has received a written request for inclusion therein subject to any limitations on the number of shares that may be registered for resale that may be imposed by law, including positions of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). In connection with each Piggyback Registration, all of the expenses incurred in compliance with the aforesaid, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for Jupiter Gold and blue sky fees and expenses will be paid by Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals shall pay all of the underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for Brazil Minerals attributable to the sale of its securities pursuant to the Piggyback Registration.

Other Agreements

On August 8, 2016, Jupiter Gold retained West Coast Stock Transfer ("WCST") as the transfer agent for its common stock. The transfer agent agreement with WCST has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 of which this prospectus comprises a part.

On August 12, 2016, MJL signed an agreement with a local third-party by which MJL acquired a gold recovery plant structure, to be manufactured at a local metalworking facility under the supervision and guidance of such third-party (the "Manufacture Agreement"). The purchase price for the plant was 23,000 Brazilian reals (approximately $7,098 as of August 31, 2016). On September 19, 2016, this gold recovery plant structure was delivered to Jupiter Gold (by placement at an area which the Company selected pursuant to the GRU Agreement). A sworn translation from Portuguese to English of the Manufacture Agreement has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 of which this prospectus comprises a part.

On September 7, 2016, Jupiter Gold retained BF Borgers CPA PC, a PCOAB audit firm based in the United States of America, to perform the audit of its financial statements from inception through August 31, 2016.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We may be deemed to be an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or JOBS Act. As long as we remain an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not "emerging growth companies" including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding an annual nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and seeking nonbinding stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an "emerging growth company."
 
Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
 
We will remain an "emerging growth company" for up to five years, although we would cease to be an "emerging growth company" prior to such time if we have more than $1 billion in annual revenue, more than $700 million in market value of our common stock is held by non-affiliates, or we issue more than $1 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.
 
Our Goal and Strategy

Jupiter Gold's ultimate goal is to become the premier gold-focused company in Brazil.
 
Our strategy is two-fold:

Revenue Growth

To grow our gold revenues by placement of more GRUs, as per the GRU Agreement, as well as eventual placement of additional GRUs in mineral rights areas belonging to the Company, which have the requisite mining and environmental licensing at the time, or in areas belonging to third-parties.

Monetization of Our Mineral Rights Areas

To perform focused geological research for the occurrence of gold in some or all of our mineral rights (described in the section of this prospectus entitled "Our Gold Properties") which could enhance the value of such areas. As a corollary, this could allow Jupiter Gold either to raise additional capital for further development and exploration, or, preferably, to partner with better capitalized companies for such.

There are known gold occurrences in the regions where our mineral rights areas for gold are located. In general, our initial assessment will be regional geophysics using an airborne geophysical survey with full radiometric and magnetic fields. After defining priority areas, it will be necessary to detail each of them with ground geophysics. The geophysical work will provide the definition of priority targets for exploration where geological mapping will be done, including soil geochemistry, digging trenches and pits, and drilling.

It is likely that before the completion of such exploration work, we may collect enough data to ascertain whether there are likely potential gold deposits. We believe that with some data we could estimate whether there are primary or secondary deposits, whether any gold is free or associated with some minerals (e.g., sulphide or quartz), and whether such gold is widespread in large structures or concentrated in veins.

For several, if not all, of our current mineral rights for gold, we believe that there is potential for the existence of secondary deposits that can be leveraged to gold production with low investment and low operating costs. In general, these deposits have free gold in altered rock or alluvium and can be excavated via opencast mines and processed in small portable plants, and the gold recovered by gravimetric methods (centrifuges and gutters) without using chemical reagents, in essence resembling or being equal to the GRUs we will have developed for use elsewhere as indicated above.

Why We Are Going Public  

 
We have decided to become a public company for two principal reasons: 
 
· to secure permanent capital to grow; and
 
·
to permit us to use publicly traded securities to finance our growth.
 
Competitive Strengths  

Focus on Brazil

Brazil is territorially larger than the continental U.S. and has the 7 th largest economy among nations in terms of Gross Domestic Product, adjusted for purchasing power parity. Importantly, Brazil has rich and varied geological formations. Most of the Brazilian territory has not been geologically researched to any great extent, unlike Canada and Australia, other large mineral producing countries. We believe that Brazil holds promise for many more discoveries of mineral resources in the next decades. Brazil also has a detailed mining code and a long history of welcoming exploration of its resources by foreign groups. We believe the trends favoring gold mining in stable jurisdictions such as Brazil will continue for the next several decades.
 
Focus on Gold

For centuries, gold has been used in jewelry and as storage of value. With the advent of financial instruments that derive their value from gold, the interest in the metal has increased substantially. We believe that Brazil will continue to yield promising areas for gold exploration. We will have the expertise to create a favorable market position starting with our focus on low-cost recovery of alluvial gold and several promising mineral claims in areas known to have gold nearby.

Focus on People

We believe that our most important asset is our people. For us to succeed, it is paramount to have guidance from management that understands the unique Brazilian culture and has the necessary local business networks. Our CEO and directors have such expertise and other knowledge in critical facets for our business. From this strong base, we intend to selectively add employees and consultants as we grow.

Sector Outlook

We believe that significant growth and profit opportunities exist in the mining industry over the long term. These opportunities derive from long-term trends, including globalization of the world economy, growth in investable funds, and accelerating technology innovation.In particular, we believe that demand for gold will continue to grow.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risk factors and all other information contained in this prospectus before purchasing our shares.  The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us.  Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently deem immaterial, also may become important factors that affect us.  We have assembled these risk factors based upon publicly available information, our own analysis, and our own beliefs relative to our understanding of our business.  If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, in which case, the value of our common stock could decline, and you may lose some or all of your investment.

General Risks Relating to Our Business

We are a newly formed company.

We are a new venture and have the inherent risks associated with any start-up, including, but not limited to, an unproven business model, lack of depth in management, lack of branding and very limited access to funding.

Our business model is unproven.

Our primary business model of building portable gold recovery plants for alluvial gold extraction and locating them in gold areas in Brazil has not been done before in the scale in which we intend to proceed. We may not find enough attractive areas in which to place our GRUs. We may not have the funds necessary to reach critical mass in the number of GRUs. Revenues from GRUs may be less than the costs to acquire and run such GRUs, and may not permit us to become profitable with this line of business.

Our secondary business model, which is to take one of our several mineral rights for gold and turn it into a profitable project, faces difficult odds. Only a fraction of mineral rights in Brazil ever become a producing mine. We will most likely need to partner with a larger, better capitalized company to advance in one or more of our projects. We may not find such interested partner. If we find such partner, we may have to dilute our project ownership materially initially or over time.

We are highly dependent on certain members of our management.

We depend on the efforts of our currently small number of officers and directors. In particular, we are heavily dependent upon the expertise of Marc Fogassa, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer. Mr. Fogassa speaks Portuguese and English fluently, has extensive networks in both Brazil and the United States of America, and relevant experience in management of a public entity, chairmanships and directorships on multiple Boards, and finance. We note that Mr. Fogassa is also the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Brazil Minerals, Inc., our largest shareholder. If it occurs, any loss of the services of Mr. Fogassa could have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations and financial position. Our business will also be dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. Acquiring these personnel could prove more difficult or cost substantially more than estimated. This could cause us to incur greater costs, or prevent us from pursuing our strategy as quickly as we would otherwise wish.
 



- 10 -




We lack branding.

As with any new venture, we are unknown in the marketplace. This may prevent us access to the best opportunities for gold areas in Brazil, talent for our team, or attractive financing terms.

We may be unable to access funding on acceptable terms or at all.

We may seek additional debt or equity financing to finance our business model and for growth.  Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms or at all and our failure to obtain additional financing when needed could negatively impact our growth, financial condition and results of operations. Additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of our shares, and debt financing, if available, may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants that restrict our ability to operate our business.
 

We will have broad discretion in using the proceeds of this offering, and we may not effectively spend the proceeds.
 
We intend to use most if not all of the net proceeds of this offering, which may be combined with additional cash and other consideration, for our Plan of Operations, or described in this prospectus, and for working capital. The net proceeds of this offering together with internally generated funds may be insufficient for us to fund operations for any specific period of time or to fund other initiatives. We will have significant flexibility and broad discretion in applying the net proceeds of this offering, and we may not apply these proceeds effectively. Our management might not be able to yield a significant return, if any, on any investment of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity to influence our decisions on how to use our net proceeds from this offering.
 
We may not raise enough proceeds from this offering to fund our operations.

Our efforts at selling our common stock may not succeed, or may only partially succeed. As specified in our Plan of Operations in this prospectus, if we fail to raise the full amount by selling 100% of the Shares being offered by us, we will not be able to carry out the full scope of our intended plan. The less proceeds that we raise from this offering, the less we will be able to perform, which may impact the value of our common stock.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Our results of operations, financial position and business outlook are highly dependent on the price of gold, which is subject to significant volatility and uncertainty

Our results are substantially dependent on gold prices. As a result of the volatility of gold prices for these items, our results may fluctuate substantially.

Risks Relating to Mining and Environmental Regulation

We are subject to extensive mining and environmental regulation in Brazil.  We also require permits from Brazilian governmental authorities with control over certain aspects of our business.

We are subject to various Brazilian federal mining laws and federal, state and local environmental laws. We may also be required to obtain permits from Brazilian governmental authorities for certain aspects of our operations. We may have to make significant capital expenditures on an ongoing basis to continue to ensure our compliance with mining and environmental laws and regulations and permit requirements. In addition, due to the possibility of changes to mining and environmental laws and regulations, the amount and timing of future regulatory expenditures may vary substantially from those currently anticipated. We could be subject to civil or criminal penalties for non-compliance with mining and environmental laws and regulations under Brazilian law.
 
Our geologists are other consultants and experts have only visited some of our mineral properties.

The property where our initial GRU is located has been visited by one of our geologists, J. Francescatto, and  by our mining engineer, T. Saraiva. Both of these experts have visited other properties of Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. ("MDB") and RST Recursos Minerais Ltda ("RST"), including potential other locations to move the initial GRU to or for additional GRU placement. Mr. Francescatto has professionally examined Jupiter Gold's mineral right DNPM 831.883/2016 in October 2016 to initiate our exploration program. He is expected to visit Jupiter Gold's mineral rights 831.942/2016 in December 2016, and DNPM 860.807/2016 in January 2017. Another of our geologists, R. Mello, has worked for AngloAmerican exploring for gold in the vicinity of the Morro de Ouro deposit a few miles from our mineral right DNPM 831.883/2016. Our three large mineral rights in the Amazon region (DNPM 880.133/2016, DNPM 880.134/2016, and DNPM 880.135/2016) have not been visited and a visit is not currently planned to any of them due to the remoteness of the location creating expensive access. Because not all of our mineral properties have been examined, there is a risk that they will be less attractive than currently anticipated based on data from available geological maps of their general area and other information.

None of our directors have visited our mineral properties.

The property where our initial GRU is located at has been visited by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Marc. Fogassa, who has also visited other potential locations to move the initial GRU to or for additional GRU placement. Since Jupiter Gold was incorporated on July 27, 2016, and its mineral properties acquired in July and August 2016, there has been little time for Jupiter Gold's directors to examine in loco any of the Company's mineral rights. Because our mineral properties have not been examined by our directors, there is a risk that the Board of Directors of the Company will not have as much information as needed to guide its decision making as accurately as possible.

Risks Related to Brazil
 
Significant volatility in the value of the Brazilian real in relation to the U.S. dollar could harm our results.

Our costs in Brazil will be in Brazilian real, the local currency, and thus subject to currency fluctuations. In the past, the Brazilian government has implemented various economic plans and utilized a number of exchange rate policies, including sudden devaluations and periodic mini-devaluations, during which the frequency of adjustments has ranged from daily to monthly floating exchange rate systems, exchange controls, and dual exchange rate markets. Overall, there have been significant fluctuations in the exchange rates between the Brazilian real and the U.S. dollar.
 
The Brazilian Government has exercised, and continues to exercise, significant influence over the Brazilian economy. Brazilian economic and political conditions have a direct impact on our business.

The Brazilian economy has been characterized by frequent, and occasionally drastic, intervention by the Brazilian government, which has often changed monetary, credit and other policies to influence Brazil's economy. The Brazilian government's actions to control inflation and affect other policies have often involved wage and price controls and fluctuation of the Brazilian Central Bank's base interest rates. Actions taken by the Brazilian government concerning the economy may have important effects on companies operating in Brazil, including our company, and on market conditions. For example, in the past, the Brazilian government maintained domestic price controls, and we cannot assume that price controls will not be re-imposed in the future. Our financial condition and results of operations may also be adversely affected by the following factors and the Brazilian government's actions in response to them: devaluations and other exchange rate movements; inflation; economic and social instability; energy shortages; interest rates; exchange controls and restrictions on remittances abroad; liquidity of the domestic capital and lending markets; tax policy; and other political, diplomatic, social and economic policies or developments in or affecting Brazil. 
 
Economic and market conditions in other emerging market countries may adversely affect the Brazilian economy and, therefore, the value of our Company.
 
The value of securities issued by companies operating in Brazil, such as ourselves, may be influenced by economic and market conditions in Brazil, and, to varying degrees, market conditions in other Latin American and emerging market countries, independently of the results of our business.  Although economic conditions are different in each country, the reaction by investors to developments in one country may cause the capital markets in other countries to fluctuate. Developments or conditions in other emerging market countries have at times significantly affected the availability of credit in the Brazilian economy and resulted in considerable outflows of funds and declines in the amount of foreign currency invested in Brazil, as well as limited access to international capital markets by Brazilian companies, which may adversely affect our ability to borrow funds at an acceptable interest rate or to raise equity capital when and if there should be a need for us to do so. Although market concerns that crises that have affected other South American countries would ensue in Brazil have not yet become a reality, the volatility in market prices for Brazilian securities has been affected from time to time. Investors' perception of increased risk due to a crisis in other emerging market countries may adversely affect our ability to borrow funds at an acceptable interest rate or raise equity capital when and if there is a need for us to do so.

Investment registration and control requirements in Brazil may have adverse effects on us .

Brazil generally requires the registration of foreign capital invested in Brazilian markets or businesses.  Thereafter, any repatriation of the foreign capital, or income earned on the foreign capital investment, must be approved by the Brazilian government.  In the past, the Brazilian government has also imposed temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad when Brazil's foreign currency reserves decline significantly.  Although approvals on repatriation are usually granted and there are currently no restrictions on foreign capital remittances, there can be no assurance that in the future approvals on repatriation will be granted or restrictions or adverse policies will not be imposed.  If the Brazilian government delays or refuses to grant approval for the repatriation of funds or imposes restrictions on the remittance of foreign capital, our ability to transfer cash out of Brazil may be limited, thus affecting our other operations.  Our investments might also be subject to anti-trust or other regulatory reviews depending on our size and future possible regulations.

Brazilian contract and corporate laws may negatively affect us.

The enforcement of contracts in Brazil is a lengthy process, requiring skill and tenacity, and the application of the corporate laws through the Brazilian legal system can be uneven, haphazard and unreliable.

Brazilian tax laws are complex and this may be detrimental to us.

Brazilian taxation tends to be one of the more complex tax regimes in the world.  We will make every effort, in conjunction with Brazilian tax advisors, to limit the taxes that we are subjected to, however, there is no assurance that the tax laws in Brazil will not be changed, nor interpreted by Brazilian authorities in a manner that could be detrimental to us.

Risks Related to Taxation

We may be a passive foreign investment company, which could lead to additional taxes for U.S. holders of our shares.

A passive foreign investment company or PFIC is a non-U.S. corporation that meets either the income or asset PFIC tests. The income test is met if 75% or more of a corporation's gross income is ''passive income'' (generally dividends, interest, rents, royalties, and gains from the disposition of passive assets) in any taxable year. The asset test is met if at least 50% of the average value of a corporation's assets produce, or are held for the production of, passive income. If we are considered a PFIC, a U.S. holder of our shares could be subject to substantially increased tax liability, including an interest charge upon the sale or other disposition of the U.S. holder's shares or upon the receipt of ''excess distributions'' from us. Certain elections may sometimes be used to reduce the adverse impact of the PFIC rules. These elections may not be available to U.S. holders. If these elections are available, they may result in a current U.S. federal tax liability prior to any distribution or disposition of the shares, and without the assurance of a U.S. holder receiving an equivalent amount of income or gain from a distribution or disposition.

Risks Relating to our Common Stock
 
There has been no market for our common stock, and prospective investors may not be able to resell their common stock at or above the purchase price paid by such investor, or at all.

We intend to qualify our common shares for quotation on an over-the-counter market in the United States of America such as the "OTCQB." There is a greater chance for illiquidity and market volatility for securities that trade on an over-the-counter market than on a national exchange, caused by a variety of factors including:

the absence of consistent administrative supervision of "bid" and "ask" quotations;

lower trading volume; and

market conditions.
 
In addition, the value of our common stock could be affected by:
 
changes in the market valuations of other similarly situated companies providing similar services or serving similar markets;

announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
 

 


- 13 -



adoption of new accounting standards affecting our industry;

additions or departures of key personnel;

introduction of new products or services by us or our competitors;

sales of our shares or other securities in the open market;

changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;

conditions or trends in the market in which we operate;

changes in our earnings estimates and recommendations by financial analysts;

our failure to meet financial analysts' performance expectations; and

other events or factors, many of which are beyond our control.

In a volatile market, you may experience wide fluctuations in the market price of our securities. These fluctuations may have an extremely negative effect on the market price of our securities and may prevent you from obtaining a market price equal to your purchase price when you attempt to sell our securities in the open market. In these situations, you may be required either to sell our securities at a market price which is lower than your purchase price, or to hold our securities for a longer period of time than you planned. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability to acquire other companies by using shares as consideration or to recruit and retain managers with equity-based flexible stock incentive plans.

We cannot assure you that our common stock will become quoted on the OTCQB, or any other exchange.

We may not meet the initial listing standards for OTCQB, in which case we may register as an OTC Pink company or another over-the-counter exchange category which may be considered to be inferior. This may further affect our liquidity and the availability of investor interest. 

The Company's quarterly revenue and operating results are likely to be volatile and difficult to predict, and if we fail to meet the expectations of investors, the market price of our shares would likely decline significantly.

Our operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, due to a number of factors. These factors include, but are not limited to:

· the global price for gold;

· costs related to our local operations;

· the Brazilian real – U.S. dollar exchange rate;

· weather;

· the rate of our growth;

· research results related to any of our mineral rights;

· new mining, environmental, and/or tax regulations in Brazil; and

· fluctuations in economic, political, and market conditions.
 
 
 
- 14 -




Many of these factors are largely outside of our control, and there are many facets of each of these factors over which we have limited control. As a result of the factors above and the evolving nature of our business and industry, we may be unable to forecast our revenue accurately. We may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfalls. Additionally, a failure to meet our revenue or expense projections would have an immediate and negative impact on our operating results. If this were to happen, the market price of our common stock would likely decline significantly.

Our Common Shares may be considered a "penny stock" and it may be difficult to sell.
 
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a "penny stock" to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. If, upon development of a market, the market price of the shares falls below $5.00 per share, the SEC's penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and the salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that before a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's agreement to the transaction. These rules may adversely impact the liquidity of our shares and may affect the ability of investors to sell their shares.
 
Our offering is being conducted by one of our officers and directors without the benefit of an underwriter who would have confirmed the accuracy of the disclosure in our prospectus.
We have self-underwritten our offering on a "best efforts" basis, which means no underwriter has engaged in any due diligence activities to confirm the accuracy of the disclosure in the prospectus or to provide input as to the offering price; our CEO and Chairman will attempt to sell the shares and there can be no assurance that all of the shares offered under the prospectus will be sold; and there is no assurance that we can raise the intended offering amount.

Under our Bylaws, stockholders that initiate certain proceedings may be obligated to reimburse us and our officers and directors for all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with such proceedings if the claim proves unsuccessful.

Our Bylaws include a fee-shifting provision in Article VI, Section 7 for stockholder claims (the "Fee Shifting Provision"), which reads as follows: " In the event that (a) any current or prior shareholder of the  Company  or  anyone  on their  behalf ("Claiming Party") initiates or asserts any claim or counterclaim  ("Claim")  or joins, offers assistance to,  or has  a direct  interest  in  any Claim  against  the Corporation and/or any of its shareholders, officers, or directors (together, the Corporation and/or any of its  shareholders, officers, or directors are henceforth called "Receiving Parties"),including any Claim purportedly filed on behalf of the Corporation or any shareholder, whether direct or derivative, in any jurisdiction, and (b) the Claiming Party (or the third party that received assistance from the Claiming Party or in whose Claim the  Claiming Party  had  a  direct  interest) does not obtain a favorable judgment on all of the merits of its Claim, with such determination made by the Corporation, then each Claiming Party shall be obligated jointly and severally to reimburse the Receiving Parties for all fees, costs and expenses of every kind and description (including, but not limited to, all attorneys'  fees) that the Receiving  Parties may incur in connection with such Claim."
 
 
 
- 15 -

 
 
 
The Fee Shifting Provision was adopted to eliminate or decrease nuisance and frivolous litigation. We intend to apply the Fee Shifting Provision broadly to all actions, including U.S. federal securities law claims and claims related to this offering. The level of recovery for the plaintiff to avoid any payment, quoting verbatim the language of the Fee Shifting Provision, would necessitate such plaintiff obtaining a "favorable judgment on all of the merits of its Claim." The Fee Shifting Provision is intended to apply to "any current or prior shareholder of the Company or anyone on their behalf" and the Company will make such determination based on the facts of any case it may encounter. The parties entitled to recover, quoting verbatim, are "the Corporation and/or any of its shareholders, officers, or directors."  The Fee Shifting Provision could discourage shareholder lawsuits that might otherwise benefit the Company and its shareholders.
 
We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future.

We are a recently formed company and anticipate that in the foreseeable future, if and when we generate profits, our Board of Directors may choose to reinvest such profits or save them as reserves and not pay dividends. We cannot anticipate if and when we will be paying dividends, if ever.

Securities analysts may not initiate coverage or continue to cover our common stock and this may have a negative impact on our shares' market price.

Currently, there are no securities analysts covering our Company. The trading market for our common stock may depend significantly on the research and reports that securities analysts publish about us or our business, competitors, or markets. We will not have any control over these analysts. There is no guarantee that securities analysts will cover our shares and even if coverage does commence, we will not have any control over these analysts. If securities analysts do not cover our common stock, the lack of research coverage may adversely affect our shares' market price and liquidity. If we are covered by securities analysts, and our stock is downgraded, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases to cover us or fails to publish regular reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

If we fail to comply in a timely manner with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding internal control over financial reporting or to remedy any material weaknesses in our internal controls that we may identify, such failure could result in material misstatements in our financial statements, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and current SEC regulations, beginning with our annual report on Form 20-F for the 2016 fiscal year, we will be required to furnish a report by our management on our internal controls over financial reporting. Such report will contain, among other matters, an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of 2016.  Such implementation is likely to result in increased general and administrative expenses and may shift management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. We cannot assure that we will be able to achieve our objective on a timely basis. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment or to complete our Section 404 certifications could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

In addition, in connection with our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, we may discover "material weaknesses" in our internal controls as defined in standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The PCAOB defines "significant deficiency" as a deficiency that results in more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.

In the event that a material weakness is identified, we will employ qualified personnel and adopt and implement policies and procedures to address any material weaknesses that we identify. However, the process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company. We cannot assure you that the measures we will take will remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or that we will implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial process and reporting in the future.

Any failure to complete our assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or to implement new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure also could adversely affect the results of the periodic management evaluations of our internal controls and, in the case of a failure to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify, would adversely affect the annual auditor attestation reports regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting that are required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Inadequate internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our shares.

Our common stock may trade at prices below the initial public offering price
 
The price of the common stock after the offerings may fluctuate widely, depending upon many factors, including our perceived prospects, differences between our actual financial and operating results and those expected by investors, changes in general economic, market conditions, and/or the price of gold. The common stock may trade at prices significantly below the initial public offering price.

Our Series A Preferred Stock has the effect of concentrating voting control over us in Marc Fogassa, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
 
One share of our Series A Preferred Stock is issued, outstanding and held by Marc Fogassa, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Fogassa holds the only outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock. The Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of our Series A Convertible Preferred provides that for so long as Series A Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together as a single class with the holders of our Common Stock, with the holders of Series A Preferred Stock being entitled to 51% of the total votes on all matters regardless of the actual number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding, and the holders of Common Stock being entitled to their proportional share of the remaining 49% of the total votes based on their respective voting power. Therefore, so long as he holds the only outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Mr. Fogassa will have effective voting control on all matters requiring a stockholder vote.



Our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is also Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Brazil Minerals, Inc. and may be Subject to Potential Conflicts of Interest in Matters Involving Both Companies.

As discussed in the immediately preceding risk factor, Marc Fogassa, is our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and has voting control of the Company. Mr. Fogassa also is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of, and has voting control over, Brazil Minerals, Inc., which as of November 30, 2016 owns 2,362,789 shares (approximately 59.07%) of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and is a party to certain agreements with the Company. Potential conflicts of interest may present related to such existing agreements between Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals, summarized in this prospectus and included in the Exhibit section. Other conflicts of interest may involve allocation of opportunities between the two companies as far as new gold opportunities are concerned, and allocation of Mr. Fogassa's working time, among others. We believe that by maintaining independent directors on the boards of directors for each of Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals such conflicts will be mitigated in situations when Mr. Fogassa may need to recuse himself.

Our authorization of Preferred Stock could discourage a Change of Control.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Shares of preferred stock may have multiple votes per share, a liquidation preference or other preferences. The issuance of shares of preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company.

Risks Relating to the Marshall Islands

We are incorporated in the Marshall Islands, which does not have a well-developed body of case law or bankruptcy law and, as a   result, shareholders may have fewer rights and protections under Marshall Islands law than under a typical jurisdiction in the   United States.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our articles of incorporation and bylaws and by the Marshall Islands Business Corporations Act (the "BCA"). The provisions of the BCA resemble provisions of the corporation laws of a number of states in the United States of America. However, there have been few judicial cases in the Marshall Islands interpreting the BCA. The rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors under the law of the Marshall Islands are not as clearly established as the rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors under statutes or judicial precedent in existence in certain U.S. jurisdictions. Shareholder rights may differ as well. While the BCA does specifically incorporate the non-statutory law, or judicial case law, of the State of Delaware and other states with substantially similar legislative provisions, our public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions by management, directors or controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a U.S. jurisdiction. Further, the Marshall Islands does not have a well-developed body of bankruptcy law. As such, in the case of a bankruptcy of our Company, there may be a delay of bankruptcy proceedings and the ability of shareholders and creditors to receive recovery after a bankruptcy proceeding.

Service of process and enforcement of judgments may be more difficult.

We are incorporated under the laws of the Marshall Islands. Substantially all of our assets are located in Brazil. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process upon us within the United States of America or to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts against us.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Assuming all shares being offered by us are sold, we will receive net proceeds of $1,000,000. 

We are not certain that we can complete 100% of the Offering (the sale of 1,000,000 Shares by us for gross proceeds of $1,000,000). The table below describes which items would be accomplished assuming we complete 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25% of the Offering for gross proceeds of $1,000,000, $750,000, $500,000 and $250,000, respectively.

Based on our present assessment of our initial GRU, we are intending to have as the highest priority of our capital raising the acquisition of another GRU unit. We believe that a combination of acquiring some of its parts in the open market as well as manufacturing other components will cost an aggregate of $25,000.

Our second most important use of proceeds is the advancement of research in our mineral rights areas, DNPM 81.883/2016, DNPM 860.802/2016, and DNPM 831.942/2016, in that order of importance. We believe that we would be able to proceed with such initial phase of research for our mineral right, DNPM 831.883/2016, under any of the assumptions from 100% to 25% for the Offering completion. However, if we complete only 25% of our Offering, we would not be able to carry on any material studies in any other of our mineral rights. If we complete only 50% of the Offering, we would be able to afford research on mineral right DNPM 860.802/2016. If we complete 75% or 100%, of our Offering we could also afford research on mineral rights, DNPM 860.802/2016 and DNPM 831.942/2016. If we complete 100% Offering, we would be able to also develop a second phase of research on our mineral right, DNPM 831.883/2016. On an initial phase, we would focus on topography, spaced drilling, and geophysics, as needed. On a second phase of research, we would perform more detailed drilling.

If we complete between 25% to 100% of the Offering, we would adjust our variable expenses so as to have working capital for 12 months, even assuming that our revenues were zero during such time. We would also be able to have some limited reserves beyond the minimum amount of working capital under these scenarios.

If we complete less than 25% of the Offering, we will focus on utilizing the funds raised to support as much data retrieval as possible regarding DNPM 831.883/2016. Based on initial information gathered by direct analysis of our geologist, J. Francescatto, it is our management's belief that this mineral right could prove to be an important asset and therefore allow the Company to return to the marketplace for more fundraising or to partner with an interested party. At this point we have not approached anyone regarding any partnerships and therefore do not know if any parties may become interested.

We believe that if we complete at least 50% of the Offering we will have enough working capital for 12 months of operations. If we complete 25% of the Offering or less we will have working capital for 6 months or less, and will need to obtain additional capital for working capital or other uses within six months or sooner.

Our Board of Directors will retain broad discretion as to the allocation of the net proceeds from the Offering. Any change in the planned use of proceeds outlined above will be done only with consent of the Board of Directors. The Board might consider a change in the use of proceeds in the following situations:
a)
An acquisition of one or more mineral right(s), mining equipment and/or operations, for gold or primarily for gold, or enterprises focused on gold exploration, becomes available to the Company on attractive terms;
b)
The Board determines that expenditures to fund investor relations and further capital raising are necessary,

 Pending the use of the net proceeds, we expect to invest the proceeds in interest-bearing bank accounts.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The factors considered in determining the public offering price include our future prospects and those of our industry in general, sales, and the market prices of securities and certain financial and operating information of companies engaged in activities similar to those we engage in.
 
DIVIDEND POLICY

We have not paid dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and growth of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. If in the future we are able to pay dividends and determine it is in our best interest to do so, such dividends will be paid at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account various factors, including our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, restrictions contained in any future financing instruments and other factors the Board deems relevant.
 
DILUTION
 
As of August 31, 2016, our net tangible book value was approximately ($900), or approximately $0.00 per share. "Net tangible book value" per share represents the amount of our total consolidated tangible assets minus total consolidated liabilities, divided by the shares outstanding.
 
After giving effect to the sale by us of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock in the Offering at the initial public offering price of $1.00 per share and after deducting the estimated expenses payable by us in the Offering, our net tangible book value as of August 31, 2016 would have been approximately $979,100, or approximately $0.20 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.20 per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $0.80 per share to new investors purchasing shares of common stock at the initial public offering price. 

 
The following table illustrates this dilution on a per share basis:

CAPITALIZATION

The following table describes our capitalization as of August 31, 2016, and after giving effect to the sale by us of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of the Shares offered by us in this Offering.

You should read this table together with the financial statements and related notes appearing at the end of this prospectus, as well as "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan of Operations" and the other financial information included elsewhere in this prospectus.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this prospectus, particularly under the heading "Risk Factors."
General

Jupiter Gold Corporation was incorporated on July 27, 2016. Our initial revenues have come from alluvial gold produced from the operation of our first gold retrieval unit ("GRU"). Our focus is to grow our revenues from GRUs by expanding the number and quality of such machines that we deploy. In addition, and separately, we own six mineral rights for gold in Brazil, all of which are in known locations for gold. We intend to research and develop, partner, or otherwise monetize such assets in the medium term.

We operate in Brazil through Mineração Jupiter Ltda (" Mineração Jupiter"), a Brazilian company in which we own a 99.99% stake. The remainder 0.01% stake is owned by an affiliate of one of our directors, solely for the reason that Brazil requires a minimum of two shareholders when registering a corporate entity. The use of the words "we", "our", the "Company," "our company," "us" below refer to us inclusive of our subsidiary, Mineração Jupiter.

Gold Retrieval Units

We own one gold retrieval unit for recovery of particulate gold. This GRU is composed of vibrating screens, a trammel and water pumping mechanisms; it works to feed two rental centrifuges and is powered by a diesel generator. Under the GRU Agreement, our initial GRU was placed on September 19, 2016 within a gold mining concession ("Concess ão de Lavra") located in the municipality of Olhos-d'Água , state of Minas Gerais, in Brazil. A mining concession in Brazil gives its owner the right to mine and commercialize the mineral output. This mining concession belongs to Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. ("MDB"), a subsidiary of Brazil Minerals. Under the GRU Agreement, our GRU will be solely operated by Brazil Minerals, and any gold obtained is split on a 50% basis between Brazil Minerals and us. Our initial gold production from operation of our first GRU started after the GRU was received on September 19, 2016; the GRU produced particulate gold in a few days of operations.  The material processed was fine auriferous sand and is not the representative material which we intend to process in the GRU. Such material is thicker, and comprises gravel and rocks, which are impregnated with particulate gold. Under Industry Guide 7, the mining regulations within the U.S., we cannot issue any estimates.

For our GRU business, our initial plan is to grow revenues through the acquisition and placement of more GRUs. Our ability to carry out such plan is dependent on the use of proceeds from this Offering. In addition, we are dependent on Brazil Minerals maintaining ownership of gold mining concessions, or our identification of other owners of mineral properties for placements our GRUs. Over time, we may license some of our own gold mineral rights and use our GRUs on such areas. We are also dependent on favorable local mining and environmental regulations, availability of labor and attractive global price for gold.

Gold Properties

We currently have title with Brazil's mining department ("Departamento Nacional de Produ ção Mineral", or "DNPM") to six research permit requests ("Requerimentos de Pesquisa") for mineral rights areas for gold located in the states of Minas Gerais (three areas), Goiás (one area), and Amazonas (three areas). We expect that for each of these areas DNPM will formally grant us permission, known as " Alvará de Pesquisa," within several weeks from the date of this prospectus to start ground research endeavors. Although we believe that local geology and other factors give each of these areas a reasonably good probability of containing gold, as of the date of this prospectus we have not yet determined whether any of these areas contain gold mineralization that is technically or economically recoverable.

For our mineral properties, our initial goal for each area would be to carry out initial studies such as review of geological findings for each area, field visits with detailed topographical analysis and mapping with geological insights, as well as collection of samples for geochemical analysis. Funding for this phase would come from a portion of the proceeds of this Offering. As a business matter, we intend to engage early with other companies or local investors who may want to partner with us in each of these areas, for co-development or licensing. Medium to long-term, our current business model is one in which we retain certain rights and royalties while a third-party develops one or more of our properties.

Results of Operations

From Inception through August 31, 2016

From inception through August 31, 2016, our revenues were zero.

From inception through August 31, 2016, we had total operating expenses of $2,313, primarily from professional fees. Our loss from operations in the period was $2,313.

From inception through August 31, 2016, we had other expenses of $3,736, all from related party fees. Our net loss in the period was $6,049.

From inception through August 31, 2016, we experienced a net loss per share (both basic and diluted) of $0.00.

From inception through August 31, 2016, net cash used in operating activities, in investing activities, and in financing activities were zero.

Please see the second entitled "Business" for details on our plan of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of August 31, 2016, we had total current assets of $7,086 compared to total current liabilities of $15,084 for a current ratio of 0.50 to 1 and a working capital deficit of ($7,998).

From inception through August 31, 2016 our principal sources of liquidity was the issuance of common stock. From inception to August 31, 2016, we sold $4,000 in common stock to a related party.

As of September 30, 2016 we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,114. We believe that funds generated from gold retrieved using our GRU, under the terms of the GRU Agreement, will be enough to sustain the operations of the Company for the next 12 months. Our basis for this statement is derived from expected results of alluvial materials containing particulate being processed in our GRU. We have access to historical results for gold concentrations from alluvial materials from the initial area where our GRU has been placed. Under Industry 7 Guide we cannot disclose such estimates. There is a risk that our estimates are incorrect and do not materialize. If we are correct in our estimates, and if we do not have any unforeseen operational disruption, we would be able to sustain the operations of the Company for the next 12 months, but we do not expect to be able to acquire another GRU or perform any research in our properties in such scenario. We need some proceeds from this Offering to be able to purchase an additional GRU and to perform research, as detailed in the Plan of Operations outlined above.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.  Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the financial statements.

Our financial instruments consist of cash, loans from and to a related party, accrued expenses, and an amount due to a director. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in our financial statements. If our estimate of the fair value is incorrect at August 31, 2016, it could negatively affect our financial position and liquidity and could result in our having understated our net loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have reviewed all recent accounting pronouncements issued to the date of the issuance of these financial statements, and we do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on us.
 
Additional Considerations

As discussed in the Risk Factor section of this prospectus, Marc Fogassa, is our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and has voting control of the Company. Mr. Fogassa also is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of, and is deemed to have voting control over Brazil Minerals, Inc., which as of November 30, 2016 owns 2,362,789 shares (approximately 59.07%) of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and is a party to certain agreements with the Company. Potential conflicts of interest may present related to such existing agreements between Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals, summarized in this prospectus and included in the Exhibit section. Other conflicts of interest may involve allocation of opportunities between the two companies as far as new gold opportunities are concerned, and allocation of Mr. Fogassa's working time, among others. We believe that by maintaining independent directors on the boards of directors for each of Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals such conflicts will be mitigated in situations when Mr. Fogassa may need to recuse himself.

INDUSTRY OUTLOOK

In our area of focus, gold production, we anticipate a fairly positive environment. Gold prices have performed well, with the price of gold rising from $1,063 on December 31, 2015 to $1,178 on November 30, 2016. On August 31, 2016,, Brazil successfully completed the impeachment process of its past President, and Brazil's new President and his cabinet members appear intent in stabilizing the economy, with some initial success, and attracting foreign capital for investment. We see these political and economic developments as positive for us although nothing can be assured with respect to the price of gold or political or economic environment in Brazil. Because of the severe recession that Brazil has been facing, now in its third year, labor at reasonable cost can be identified for the services that we will need and at the locations needed.
 
BUSINESS
 
Our operating business is discussed in the following sections:

I. Our Gold Retrieval Units (GRUs)

II. Our Gold Properties

III. Other Considerations About Our Business

IV. Regulatory Information

I. Our Gold Retrieval Units (GRUs)

I.1) Introduction

The use of centrifugal concentrators for free gold recovery from alluvial ore has been a common practice in the mining industry for over two decades. This method uses the difference in intrinsic densities between gold and the "waste" for separation – whereas the native gold density is equal to 19.0 g/cm³, the density of silica, the main component of the waste, is equal to 2.6 g/cm³.

This equipment was originally developed by the Canadian mining industry and has several advantages over other processes, such as:

· No use of chemicals (such as cyanide and mercury)
· Low maintenance and low energy consumption
· Recovery of gold in a wide particle size range
· Simple installation and operation, with excellent mobility
· For these characteristics, it is standard equipment widely used from small to large gold mining operations.

I.2) GRU Process Description

In our first GRU the desired alluvial material with gold content is added by loader into the feeder. In the feeder this material will be mixed on a 50% basis with clean water to form a pulp. The pulp then passes through a rotating trommel and vibrating screens, and is then fed to a centrifuge. The recovered gold from the centrifuge is further separated using a vibrating table. Any waste from the centrifuge is deposited in special pits for reprocessing so as to guarantee minimal loss of gold in the process.

I.3) Available Mining Areas for Placement of Our GRUs

Our GRUs will be placed in one or more areas that belong to Brazil Minerals, through its subsidiaries, Mineração Duas Barras Ltda ("MDB") and RST Recursos Minerais Ltda ("RST"), as detailed below.
 
 


- 25 -



I.3.1) Mineração Duas Barras Ltda ("MDB")

Brazil Minerals owns 100% of MDB, a Brazilian company. MDB holds title to two mineral rights, including a mining concession for gold, diamonds and sand and has the Brazilian government license to export such production. Both of the MDB mineral rights are located on the margins of the Jequitinhonha River in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil. The Jequitinhonha River valley is a well-known area for both gold and diamond production. Along its course, it has hosted alluvial production for both gold and diamonds since the 18 th century.

MDB Facilities and Equipment
 
MDB's facilities are located an approximately one and one-half hour drive from Montes Claros, a city of approximately 500,000 people. The first hour of the drive is on asphalt roads followed by a half-hour on dirt roads. Montes Claros has the infrastructure needed by MDB and also benefits from having an airport with regular jet service to large Brazilian cities, including S ã o Paulo and Belo Horizonte.MDB owns or has the right of use from an affiliate an excavator, a bulldozer, and three trucks.

MDB's Source of Water and Power

Water supplies are abundant at MDB, being sourced from a large lake that is physically separate from the Jequitinhonha River by over 100 meters. MDB has the necessary permits to use water from such lake in its operations, including the operation of the GRU.  MDB does not have electricity from the national grid and instead relies on several diesel generators for power. The GRU utilizes a portable diesel-powered generator. There are several local suppliers of diesel.

MDB's Mineral Rights

MDB holds title to two mineral rights: a mining concession ("Concessão de Lavra") for mineral right DNPM 806.568/1977, and another mineral right in an earlier stage. MDB's mining concession covers a surface area of 422 acres and allows for the exploration and commercialization of gold, diamonds and sand. "Concessão de Lavra" is the highest level of mineral right in Brazil. It permits the owner to mine in perpetuity provided that environmental licenses are kept current and that mining guidelines are followed. There are no liens or other encumbrances on MDB's mining concession, and there are no regular fees to be paid to maintain such mineral right, besides government royalties on production. The government's royalty on gold production is 1% (one percent) of sales.

Known Gold Mineralization within MDB's Mining Concession

We have not performed any geological studies at MDB. However, over the last three years, Brazil Minerals has retrieved and sold gold recovered from MDB's mining concession. We estimate that such amount of gold sold was approximately $600,000. Further details on MDB can be found on Brazil Minerals' filings with the SEC which are accessible at www.sec.gov.
 
I.3.2) RST Recursos Minerais Ltda. ("RST")

Brazil Minerals owns 50% of RST, and the remainder is owned by an affiliate. RST holds title to multiple mineral rights for gold, including 9 mining concessions, the highest level of mineral right in Brazil. All of the RST rights are located in either the right or left margins of the Jequitinhonha River. Many of the RST areas are located near MDB's facilities.

Known Production of Gold Within or Adjacent to RST

We have not performed any geological studies at RST. However, there is data concerning gold retrieval from RST areas. The following table presents the gold production from 1967 to 1983 by a mining company called Mineração Tejucana ("Tejucana"). RST is the successor owner to Tejucana's mineral rights in the Jequitinhonha River valley. This data comes from a chapter entitled "Volume IV-A - The Main Mineral Deposits of Brazil" in a publication edited by the Brazilian mining department, and Companhia de Pesquisa de Recursos Geologicos ("CPRM"), the governmental entity responsible for research on geological resources. Volume IV was prepared by the geologist Henri Dupont.

- 31 -



Each of these areas is detailed below.

II.1) Paracatu Project - DNPM 831.883/2016
 
General

On August 3, 2016, we received from DNPM the mineral right designated by the number 831.883/2016 in DNPM's database. Its current status level within DNPM is that of "Requerimento de Resquisa" ("RP"), the initial stage for a mineral property.  Please see item IV.1 for details regarding the RP stage.

Location

DNPM 831.883/2016 is located in the municipality of Paracatu, state of Minas Gerais, in Brazil.

The city of Paracatu was founded in the early 17 th century by pioneers searching for gold and silver.  Today, Paracatu is a city with 100,000 inhabitants. Only 1.2 miles from city center sits the largest gold mine in Brazil, on a deposit named "Morro do Ouro", which is owned and operated by Kinross Gold, one of the world's largest gold producers. It annually produces 480,000 ounces of gold and is also the largest gold deposit in Brazil, with 16 Million ounces of gold (6 million ounces of past production and 9.6 million ounces in reserves, as of 2015 Kinross Gold's published estimates).

Paracatu is located in the northwest part of the state of Minas Gerais, approximately 300 miles from Belo Horizonte, the capital of the state of Minas Gerais. Paracatu is also located 125 miles from Brasilia, the capital of Brazil. It has a regional airport with flights to these cities and others. The city has all of the infrastructure and labor needed for mining research and exploration.

Size

DNPM 831.883/2016 has a surface area of 312.66 hectares (approximately 773 acres).

Other Information

There has been extensive gold production in the Paracatu region from alluvial deposits, mainly along a river stream called "Córrego do Ouro" and also known as " Córrego do Rico."  This watercourse that starts near Morro do Ouro mine has, for millions of years, eroded rock and transported gold for the formation of alluvial deposits. Our mineral right DNPM 831.883/2016 is crossed by such watercourse.

In local research a simple alluvial operation in an area downstream from our mineral right DNPM 831.883/2016 has claimed annual production of 4,000 ounces of gold, although we have not verified such data. Our mineral right DNPM 831.883/2016 is located upstream from such locale, and thus geographically closer to Morro do Ouro mine.

Mineralization in DNPM 831.883/2016 is likely to be secondary and gold could potentially be retrieved from the alluvium by GRUs.
Geological Justification

The two reasons as to why this area was selected for exploration are:

a)
the presence of the giant "Morro do Ouro" gold deposit only 4 miles upstream along the Córrego do Rico, associated with the detection, using remote sensing, of significant presence of alluvial sediments, possibly mineralized; and

b)
historical production reports, by artisanal miners exploring downstream areas, which mention  production of up to 4,000 ounces of gold per annum.
 
Three facts support our belief that the DNPM 831.883/2016 has potential for significant production of alluvial gold:

a)
the absence of records indicating that mining has ever occurred there;

b)
the position of the area, upstream in relation to these alluvial mining sites and therefore closer to the source of gold; and

c)
the presence of alluvial terraces, which indicate that gold may have accumulated there, after erosion of the Morro do Ouro deposit.

Although the geological setting in DNPM 831.883/2016 is the same as the setting at the Morro do Ouro deposit (contact zone between the formations Paracatu and Vazante), the main target is the secondary gold which could potentially be retrieved from the alluvium by centrifuges.

Team

Our geologists R. Mello and J. Francescatto, each with more than 30 years of exploration experience, will oversee and supervise the work, contracting local workers and suppliers. The former has direct experience in Paracatu, having worked for AngloAmerican exploring for gold in the vicinity of the Morro do Ouro deposit. The latter has visited DNPM 831.883/2016 recently, initiating our exploration studies.

Exploration Plan

Initially, drilling will be done using a Bank drill over a wide spacing grid, with 200 meters separation, in the fluvial plains at the margins of the Córrego do Rico. Samples will be collected at each 1 meter of depth at prospective intervals and sent for analysis (FA-AA) by a commercial laboratory in Belo Horizonte, the capital of the state of Minas Gerais, and a large mining services hub. Approximately 10% of the valid samples will consist of blanks, standards and duplicates, which will be checked routinely to detect any sampling or analysis error. If the initial results are positive, the grid should be increased to 100 meters of separation, with 50 meters of separation for zones of greater complexity.

The drilling will be complemented by a geophysical survey using GPR (Ground Penetration Radar) in order to better define the bedrock of the sediments. Metallurgical tests will complement the work, testing the recovery by centrifuges and other methods.

No detail budgets or timetables for the project have been produced so far. These should be dependent on the extension of fluvial plains available for drilling, to be ascertained in further visits in loco .

Industry Guide 7 Compliance

We note that that as of now this property is without known reserves, according to such the definition under the SEC's Industry Guide 7. In further compliance with Industry Guide 7, we state that our proposed program for this area is exploratory in nature.
 
II.2) Crixás Project - DNPM 831.942/2016

General

On July 27, 2016, we received from DNPM the mineral right designated by the number 860.807/2016 in DNPM's database. Its current status level within DNPM is that of "Requerimento de Resquisa" ("RP"), the initial stage for a mineral property. Please see item IV.1 for details regarding the RP stage.

Location

DNPM 860.807/2016 is located in the municipalities of Crixás and Uirapuru, state of Goiás, in Brazil.

Crixás was founded in the 18 th century by pioneers searching for gold. Today, Crixás has 15,000 inhabitants, and its municipality is home to the some of the largest gold operations in Brazil, with large gold mines and projects from AngloGold Ashanti and Cleveland Mining.

According to publicly available information, the AngloGold Ashanti operations in Crixás encompass three underground and two open-pit mines. Production of over 4 million ounces of gold has occurred from these mines, and more than 3 million ounces remain; the 2015 annual yield was 132,000 ounces of gold.

Size

DNPM 860.807/2016 has a surface area of 1,993.02 hectares (approximately 4,925 acres).

Geological Justification

The area of DNPM 860.807/2016 is located on the contact between the greenstone belt that hosts the > 7 Moz gold orebody mined by Anglo Gold Ashanti, and older gneisses. The area has potential for primary mineralization, but the main target for Brazil Minerals is the significant extension of alluvial sediments from the two most important creeks draining the Crixás orebody, the Vermelho and Antas Creek, that run over 2.2 miles inside the area. The deposit lies around 18 miles upstream from the area, which means that the alluvial sediments detected by remote sensing should be mineralized in gold.  There are no signs of past mining at the area, which means that, probably, the gold grade is attractive for modern alluvial mining, specially through the usage of  GRUs.

Team

Our geologist R. Mello worked in the region for over one year, prospecting extensions of the Crixás mineralization for AngloAmerican. Supported by our other geologist J. Francescatto, we believe that our team is fully capable to develop gold exploration in this area.

Exploration Plan

As the main focus of the exploration for this area is to search for alluvial sediments rich in gold, Brazil Minerals plans to drill regular holes over terraces at the banks of the Vermelho River and Antas Creek. A Banka drill will be used for this, drilling from surface to bedrock, which usually represents holes with less than ten meters of extension. A 200 meter grid will be used initially, followed by fill in holes, at 100 meters spacing and 50 meters spacing, depending on results. Samples will be collected at each 1 meter at prospective intervals and sent for analysis (FA-AA) by a commercial laboratory in Belo Horizonte. Approximately 10% of the valid samples will consist of blanks, standards and duplicates, which will be checked routinely to detect any sampling or analysis error.

The drilling will be complemented by a geophysical survey using GPR (Ground Penetration Radar) in order to better define the bedrock of the sediments. Metallurgical tests will complement the work, testing the recovery by centrifuges and other methods.

No detail budget or timetable were produced so far. They should be dependent on the extension of fluvial plains available for drilling.
 
Industry Guide 7 Compliance

We note that that as of now this property is without known reserves, according to such the definition under the SEC's Industry Guide 7. In further compliance with Industry Guide 7, we state that our proposed program for this area is exploratory in nature.

Other Information

DNPM 831.942/2016 is located within the well-known area in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil called the "Iron Quandrangle". This region, known for both iron and gold mining, has excellent logistics and is also close to the state's capital, Belo Horizonte. The closest larger city to this new claim is Itabira.

Geological formations in the Iron Quadrangle are rich and highly complex; gold mines usually begin as open-sky alluvial operations and later advance underground following primary gold deposits. Several companies have operated gold mines within the Iron Quandrangle, notably AngloGold Ashanti and Jaguar Mining. Although a hired expert indicated potential in this claim, confirmatory geological research has not been performed as of yet.

Exploration Program

We have not drafted an Exploration Plan for DNPM 831.942/2016 but plan on doing so after a visit by geologist J. Francescatto in December 2016.

Industry Guide 7 Compliance

We note that that as of now this property is without known reserves, according to such the definition under the SEC's Industry Guide 7. In further compliance with Industry Guide 7, we state that any proposed program for this area will be exploratory in nature.

Other Information (applicable to items II.4, II.5, and II.6)

It is known and widely reported in local media the presence of illegal prospector sites in the Apuí region, which tends to indicate the presence of gold able to be extracted with rudimentary equipment.

In general, the Amazon region of Brazil, where our areas are located, is considered a potential new gold frontier, among specialists. It has been reported that primary deposits in this region may potentially reach 1 million ounces of gold or more. Secondary deposits in the region could range from 10,000 to 100,000 ounces of gold, being in alluvium, paleoplacers and weathered rocks. 

Large gold areas in the Amazon region of Brazil, with research and exploration to verify it, have fetched prices varying between $15 million to $110 million, in reported transactions of stock exchange listed companies.
 
Currently, approximately 40% of our three areas are inside the Aripuanã National Forest, an environmental conservation unit which allows mining, under a special licensing regulation.

There are a few access roads to the areas, usually rough cuts on the forest for farming purposes. Thus, mineral research and eventual operations will require investment in housing, dining halls, sheds for equipment and samples, offices, electricity, septic tank, water catchment and telecommunications. There is presently no access and therefore this will require opening up new access. Because of their wide availability, most construction would use locally cut woods. Diesel generators would provide electricity and a satellite antenna would provide internet and telephone. 
 
Exploration Program

We have not drafted an Exploration Plan for any of DNPM 880.133/2016, DNPM 880.134/2016, or DNPM 880.135/2016. Given the remoteness of these areas, and the fact that we consider the previous three proprieties as priority, we do not have a set date as to when an exploration program will be drafted.

Industry Guide 7 Compliance

We note that that as of now these properties (DNPM 880.133/2016, DNPM 880.134/2016, or DNPM 880.135/2016) are each or together without known reserves, according to such the definition under the SEC's Industry Guide 7. In further compliance with Industry Guide 7, we state that any proposed program for these areas will be exploratory in nature.

Surface Disturbances And Contamination Issues for Our Properties

Our geologist J. Francescatto has visually inspected our mineral right DNPM 831.883/2016 and has not identified any surface disturbance or contamination issue. We have yet to visually inspect our other mineral properties but based on satellite images and information from local residents none of these issues will apply. We will have confirmation upon future inspection. The Company will not be liable for any such issues if it informs the mining department and environmental regulator, as the case may be, promptly since these areas were newly awarded to the Company, and the Company will not be liable for prior degradation or contamination if it reports to the appropriate authorities.

 
III. Other Considerations About Our Business

III.1) Competition

Jupiter Gold does not face competitive threats that it can identify at the moment. The ability to grow its revenues by placement of more GRUs and the ability to explore and develop its mineral rights for gold do not depend on beating any direct competition.
 
 

- 47 -



III.2) Employees

Jupiter Gold has three employees: a Chief Executive Officer (who is also its Chief Financial Officer), a Vice President, and a Secretary. Other workers and staff members are allocated on a part-time basis under the Service Agreement, as discussed in the subsection entitled "Our History."

III.3) Technology

Our initial GRU was designed by consultants working on our behalf and contains significant proprietary know-how. Even though the unit was built at a metalworking facility, we provided the specifications and design. We are considering options for intellectual property protection, as we believe that some aspects of our design could be unique; however, we have not performed any research to date to validate such assumptions.

We intend to aggressively pursue improvements in the technology of alluvial gold extraction using centrifugation as applied to the type of material seen in our Brazilian properties and those with which we have agreements for placement of our GRUs. To this extent, we intend to be known as a technology-driven company in lowering costs and increasing yields of gold retrieval with our designed plants.

We do not know of another competitor in Brazil with the same business model or approach.

III.4) Seasonality

For our initial GRU placement, in the Jequitinhonha Valley in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil, the rainy season is from December through April. During these months, we expect lower revenues because of logistical difficulties presented by the rain.

IV. Regulatory Information
 
IV.1) Summary of Mining Regulation in Brazil

Mining regulation is administered and enforced by the Departamento Nacional de Produção Mineral ("DNPM"), the Brazilian national mining department. This is a federal-level regulatory entity, which has offices and local superintendents in every one of the Brazilian states. DNPM is part of the "Ministério de Minas e Energia", the Federal Secretariat of Mines and Energy.
 
DNPM maintains a database ("Cadastro Mineiro") of all areas which have permission to be explored. Stages for each claim from lowest to highest rights are:
 
"Requerimento de Pesquisa" ("RP")

RP is the entry level stage for a mineral property in the mining department. The RP is granted by the mining department upon review of specific documentation, including a draft plan of research for the area, and payment of a fee. Sometime after awarding the RP with respect to an area, the mining department publishes in the official gazette of the government named " Diário Oficial da União" ("DOU") a decree, called "Alvará de Pesquisa" ("AP") at which point the owner of the RP can formally begin the research in the area. After publication of the AP in the DOU, the owner of the area has up to three years in which to complete mineral research and submit the findings to the DNPM in a so-called " Relatório Final de Pesquisa" ("RFP"), a final research report. If three years is not enough time, for any reason, the owner of the area can submit a "Relatório Parcial de Pesquisa" ("RPP"), a partial research report. Upon evaluation of a RPP, the DNPM may then grant an extension of one to three additional years, although no assurances exist. DNPM may or may not approve a RFP; if not approved, the title of mineral right area reverts to the government of Brazil; if approved, the owner can continue to the level of "Requerimento de Lavra."
 
"Requerimento de Lavra" ("RL")

·RL is the stage in the title of a mineral right in Brazil prior to mining concession. In this stage the title holder prepares and submits evidence that the deposit to be mined is economically viable, and obtains a preliminary environmental license, which depends on the type and size of mining facility planned. The mining department usually allows several years from such studies to be completed at its discretion.

"Concessão de Lavra" ("CL")
 
CL is the highest level of mineral right title achievable in Brazil. It permits its owner to mine and sell the output produced in perpetuity, under current law, for as long as the mining code and environmental regulations are followed. To acquire this title, the owner of the property must have demonstrated that the deposit is economically viable and obtained an environmental license to mine.  The award of a CL is published in the DOU.

IV.2) Summary of Environmental Regulation in Brazil

Compliance with environmental laws in Brazil is overseen by state-level government agencies. For instance, in the state of Minas Gerais, the duties of the environmental licensing are exercised by Conselho Estadual de Política Ambiental ("COPAM", State Environmental Policy Council) of the Secretaria do Meio Ambiente ("SEMAD", Environmental Secretariat).
 
Each region of the state of Minas Gerais has an office of the Superintendência Regional de Meio Ambiente e Desenvolvimento Sustentável ("SUPRAM", Environment and Sustainable Development Regional District). SUPRAM, following guidelines from SEMAD, coordinates the implementation of activities related to environmental compliance of mining projects. A project that is compliance receives a Licença de Operação (Operational License).
 
IV.3) Material Impact of Government Regulation

We estimate that compliance with all of the mining and environmental regulations will demand several hours per month from our technical team, particularly from T. Saraiva and W. Silva. These individuals will prepare filings and reports, and answer any questions that may be posed. We expect the cost of observance of common and expected government regulations to equate to one-half of a full-time employee per month and to cost the Company between $5,000 to $10,000 within the next 12 months.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

On July 27, 2016, Jupiter Gold signed four agreements with Brazil Minerals: the Stock Agreement, the GRU Agreement, the Service Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. These agreements are summarized below and have been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 of which this prospectus comprises a part.

Stock Agreement

The Stock Agreement provided for Jupiter Gold to acquire from Brazil Minerals 99.99% of Mineração Jupiter Ltda. ("MJL"), a Brazilian company. Prior to this acquisition, MJL held title to two minerals rights for manganese. These two manganese mineral rights will be transferred out of MJL into a company to be designated by Brazil Minerals. In exchange for this 99.99% stake in MJL and the receipt of $4,000 from Brazil Minerals, Jupiter Gold transferred 4 million of its common shares to Brazil Minerals, and entered into the registration rights agreement with Brazil Minerals for such shares discussed below. Additionally, Jupiter Gold agreed in the Stock Agreement that any mineral project in which MJL is involved with, and that accrues any revenues or dividends (in cash, stock, or otherwise), shall be subject to a ten percent (10%) annual royalty stream ("Royalty Stream") due to Brazil Minerals. The Royalty Stream will be calculated on the amounts actually received by MJL and/or Jupiter Gold, and shall be paid within thirty (30) days of any such receipt.



- 57 -




GRU Agreement

The GRU Agreement provides that Jupiter Gold has the right to place its gold retrieval units (each a "GRU" and collectively "GRUs") in mineral rights areas for gold in Brazil owned by Brazil Minerals (the "Gold Rights"). Pursuant to the GRU Agreement, Brazil Minerals shall periodically present to Jupiter Gold a list of its available Gold Rights which meet the necessary Brazilian mining and environmental regulations for mining of gold, and for which Brazil Minerals has the necessary operational infrastructure (the "Permissible Gold Rights"). Jupiter Gold shall periodically choose from the Permissible Gold Rights, the one or more areas in which to place one or more GRUs.

Pursuant to the GRU Agreement, Jupiter Gold may periodically request that one or more GRUs be moved from a Permissible Gold Right to another. Brazil Minerals shall use its best efforts to comply with each such request within 30 days thereafter.  Brazil Minerals will solely operate all of the GRUs placed with Brazil Minerals, and will use its best efforts so as to not cause any damage to such GRUs, except for normal wear and tear. All revenues derived from the sale of gold obtained by the operation of GRUs shall be promptly split 50% to Jupiter Gold and 50% to Brazil Minerals. The GRU Agreement may be terminated by either Jupiter Gold upon 30 (thirty) days' advance written notice, or by Brazil Minerals effective immediately upon written notice if and when Brazil Minerals does not control any Permissible Gold Rights .

Service Agreement

Pursuant to the Service Agreement, Jupiter Gold has the ability to use offices and local personnel affiliated with Brazil Minerals, in exchange for a $2,500 monthly fee and reimbursement of other reasonable expenses. The purpose of the agreement is to allow Jupiter Gold to operate in Brazil while it does not develop any significant infrastructure of its own.

Jupiter Gold may terminate this Service Agreement at any time upon 90 (ninety) days' advance notice to Brazil Minerals, or may terminate for cause (which for the purposes of the Service Agreement means the breach of this Service Agreement by Brazil Minerals, or the gross negligence or malfeasance of Brazil Minerals in the performance of the Service Agreement), at any time without the need for advance notice. Brazil Minerals may terminate the Service Agreement at any time upon 90 (ninety) days' advance notice to Jupiter Gold, or may terminate for lack of any or full payment without the need for advance notice if such non-payment is not cured within 30 days.

Registration Rights Agreement

The Registration Rights Agreement provides that whenever Jupiter Gold proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration and contemplated disposition of Registrable Securities (a "Piggyback Registration"), Jupiter Gold will give prompt written notice to Brazil Minerals of its intention to effect such a registration so that such notice is received by Brazil Minerals at least twenty (20) days before the anticipated filing date.  Jupiter Gold will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which Jupiter Gold has received a written request for inclusion therein subject to any limitations on the number of shares that may be registered for resale that may be imposed by law, including positions of the staff of the Commission. In connection with each Piggyback Registration, all of the expenses incurred in compliance with the aforesaid, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for Jupiter Gold and blue sky fees and expenses will be paid by Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals shall pay all of the underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for Brazil Minerals attributable to the sale of its securities pursuant to the Piggyback Registration.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Exchange Controls

Brazilian Laws n. 4.131, of September 03, 1962, and n. 11.371, of November 28, 2006 , as amended, regulate foreign investments in Brazil, requiring that foreign investments in Brazil be registered with the Brazilian Central Bank to enable foreign remittance of profits and/or interest on equity, and repatriation of foreign capital invested in Brazil.

The Brazilian legislation allows the investment in the capital market by individuals or legal entities, by means of the acquisition of shares and other securities. These investments, designated "portfolio investments", when performed by non-residents, are subject to registration with the Brazilian Central Bank and Brazilian Securities Commissions ("CVM"), and according to the Resolution n. 4.373, of September 29, 2014 of the Brazil Monetary Council ("CMN") can be made through Depositary Receipts, with the investor represented by institution authorized to work by the Brazil Central Bank.
 

 

- 59 -




The non-resident investors must indicate one or more attorneys-in-fact in Brazil, which should be institution authorized to work by the Central Bank and will be responsible mainly for the provision of information and for the registrations with the Brazilian Central Bank and the CVM. The registration of the portfolio investments with the Brazilian Central Bank's electronic system constitutes an obligatory requirement for remittances abroad as distribution of profits and/or interest on equity, and repatriation of the capital invested. Such remittances may be made by means of a foreign exchange contract between the Brazilian company remitting the funds and a Brazilian commercial bank duly authorized to operate in the foreign exchange market (Depositary Receipts). Such foreign exchange contract reflects the exchange of Brazilian currency into foreign currency, at the rate agreed with the Brazilian commercial bank.

Under current Brazilian legislation, the federal government may impose temporary restrictions on remittances of foreign capital abroad in the event of a serious imbalance or an anticipated serious imbalance of Brazil's balance of payments. For approximately six months in 1989 and early 1990, the federal government froze all dividend and capital repatriations held by the Central Bank that were owed to foreign equity investors, in order to conserve Brazil's foreign currency reserves. These amounts were subsequently released in accordance with federal government directives. There can be no assurance that the federal government will not impose similar restrictions on foreign repatriations in the future.

The likelihood of the imposition of such restrictions by the Brazilian government may be affected by, among other factors, the extent of Brazil's foreign currency reserves, the availability of sufficient foreign currency on the date a payment is due, the size of Brazil's debt service burden relative to the economy as a whole, Brazil's policy towards the International Monetary Fund and political constraints to which Brazil may be subject.

See "Risk Factors—Risks of the Brazilian Economy."

Certain Brazil Taxation Considerations

The following is a summary of tax issues that affect foreign investment in Brazil businesses and is based on the Brazilian tax regulations as presently in effect and does not take into account possible future changes in such tax laws.

General Comments

Brazilian companies are taxed in Brazil on the basis of their worldwide income (which includes earnings of Brazilian companies' foreign subsidiaries, branches and affiliates). In general terms, branches and representative offices of foreign companies in Brazil are taxed as Brazilian legal entities with respect to the business carried out in Brazil.

The earnings of non-Brazilian residents in general are taxed in Brazil only when derived from Brazilian sources. Exception is made to capital gains earned by foreign residents with respect to assets located in Brazil. In such case, the legislation in force in being interpreted in the sense that the Brazilian withholding income tax -WHT shall apply regardless of whether the payment is made from a Brazilian source or not. In such case, the responsibility for collecting the WHT is assigned to buyer's attorney in fact.
 

 

- 60 -





Payment of Dividends and Interest on Equity/ Repatriation of Investments

Dividends distributed by Brazilian companies to resident or non-resident shareholders or partners, based on profits earned as from January 1, 1996, are exempt from Brazilian withholding income tax. Profits and dividends realized prior to January 1, 1996 are still subject to income tax at the rates prevailing within the year the profits are generated. Prior to 1996, dividends and profits distributed were subject to a fifteen percent (15%) withholding income tax (IRRF), withheld by the company, except for distribution to residents of Japan, in which a Brazilian tax treaty provides for a 12.5 % rate.

Alternatively to the distribution of dividends, Brazilian companies may remunerate its equity holders through the payment of interest on equity, provided that the company has retained or current-year earnings. The total amount of interest on equity that can be paid or credited are subject to limits provided in Brazilian tax law. The Brazilian companies may deduct the interest on equity paid or credited as operational expenses for the purposes of corporate income taxes. A fifteen percent (15%) withholding income tax is levied on the amount of interest on equity paid, accrued to the equity holders, or capitalized (25% rate for low tax jurisdictions).

When the foreign investor sells shares or quotas in the Brazilian venture or when the Brazilian company reduces its capital or is liquidated, the foreign-registered investment can be repatriated in the relevant foreign currency free of taxes up to the amount of foreign currency registered with the Central Bank. If the foreign investor withdraws from its Brazilian subsidiary by assigning its quotas/shares for an amount exceeding that registered with the Central Bank, the exceeding amount is considered a capital gain and shall be subject to withholding income tax at a 15% rate (25% for low tax jurisdictions). Nevertheless, the exceeding amount may be remitted abroad in case of a local sale. Remittances of sale prices exceeding the net worth value ("valor patrimonial") of the Brazilian company sold must be supported by an appraisal report. There is also a discussion on whether the calculation of the capital gain should be made taking into consideration the basis in foreign currency without monetary correction or in the Brazilian currency acquired by the foreign investor by the time the foreign investment was made, indexed by monetary correction until 1996.

Tax Treaties

There is currently no tax treaty in place between Brazil and the United States nor with the Marshall Islands.

Brazil has entered into numerous tax treaties with other countries, to provide relief from double taxation on international transactions. To date, Brazil has executed treaties with South Africa, Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, China, South Korea, Denmark, Ecuador, Spain, Philippines, Finland, Netherlands, Hungary, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Luxemburg, Mexico, Norway, Peru, Portugal, Czech Republic and Slovakia Republic, Sweden, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, Ukraine, Venezuela, Paraguay* and Russia* (*Pending publication of the Executive Decree).

Low-Tax Jurisdictions

The Brazilian Federal Revenue Department has listed some locations considered to be low-tax jurisdictions for Brazilian tax purposes. Current regulations list the Cayman Islands. Low-tax jurisdictions are defined for Brazilian tax purposes as jurisdictions that do not tax income or tax it at a maximum rate lower than 20%. Payments of certain types of income to entities in low-tax jurisdictions are subject to a higher withholding tax rate of 25% (15% usually applies), with few exceptions (such as payment of operational lease fees abroad-15% and payment of interest fees related to the financing of Brazilian exports – 0%).  Transactions between a Brazilian resident and a company resident in a low-tax jurisdiction are subject to Brazilian transfer pricing rules, irrespective of whether the two parties qualify as associated companies.
 
 

- 61 -



Law n. 11.727/2008, and Normative Ruling (RFB) n. 1.037/2010, issued by the Brazilian tax authorities, expressly lists jurisdictions that are deemed to be low-tax jurisdictions, to wit: Andorra; Anguilla; Antigua and Barbuda; Netherlands Antilles; Aruba; Ascension Islands; Commonwealth of the Bahamas; Bahrain; Barbados; Belize; Bermuda; Brunei; Campione D'Italia; Channel Islands (Alderney, Guernsey, Jersey and Sark); Cayman Islands; Cyprus; Singapore; Cook Islands; Republic of Costa Rica; Djibouti; Dominica; United Arab Emirates; Gibraltar; Granada; Hong Kong; Kiribati; Lebuan; Lebanon; Liberia; Liechtenstein; Macau; Madeira Island; Maldives; Isle of Man; Marshall Islands; Mauritius; Monaco; Montserrat Islands; Nauru; Niue Island; Norfolk Island; Panama; Pitcairn Island; French Polynesia; Queshm Island; American Samoa; Western Samoa; San Marino; St. Helena Islands; Saint Lucia; Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis; Saint Peter's Island; Saint Vincent and the Grenadines; Seychelles; Solomon Islands; St. Kitts and Nevis; Swaziland; Sultanate of Oman; Tonga; Tristan da Cunha; Turks and Caicos Islands; Vanuatu; US Virgin Islands; British Virgin Islands; Luxembourg (with respect to holding companies existed under Luxembourg Law of July 31,1929); Switzerland (with respect to holding company, domiciliary company, auxiliary company, mixed company e administrative company with taxation inferior to 20%); Uruguay (with respect to companies organized as "Sociedades Financeiras de Inversão (Safis)" up to December 31, 2010); Denmark, and Netherlands (with respect to holding companies that do not realize substantive economic activity); Iceland (with respect to companies organized as International Trading Company (ITC)); United States of America (with respect to companies organized as Limited Liability Company (LLC) with shareholders not resident and exempt of Federal Corporate Income Tax); Spain (with respect to companies organized as Entidad de Tenencia de Valores Extranjeros (E.T.V.Es.); Malta (with respect to companies organized as International Trading Company (ITC) or International Holding Company (IHC)).

Withholding Income Tax on Payments Abroad

In general, payments made to non-residents are subject to withholding income tax in Brazil. As a general rule, interest, fees, commissions and any other income payable by a Brazilian obligor to an individual, company, entity, trust or organization domiciled outside Brazil is considered derived from Brazilian sources and is therefore subject to income tax withheld at the source.  Brazilian tax laws expressly authorize the paying source to pay the income or earnings net of taxes and, therefore, to assume the cost of the applicable tax. The WHT should be withheld when the income is paid, credited, used on behalf of or effectively remitted to a non-resident, whichever first occurs. The tax is generally based on gross payments (i.e., without any deductions). The general WHT rate is 15% (25% rate may apply to certain activities such as non-technical services).

Corporate Income Taxes Applicable to Brazilian Companies

Most business entities are required to pay corporate income tax (IRPJ). The IRPJ is computed at fifteen percent (15%) rate on adjusted net income. Annual net income in excess of 240,000 Brazilian Real is also subject to a surtax of ten percent (10%). According to Law No. 9,430, of December 30, 1996, taxpayers may opt to calculate the IRPJ on a quarter or annual basis. If the IRPJ is calculated quarterly, it is also payable on a quarterly basis. Over the quarter net income, a fifteen percent (15%) rate is applied, plus a ten percent (10%) surtax on net income exceeding  60,000 Brazilian Real per quarter. If the IRPJ is calculated annually, taxpayers are required to anticipate monthly payments of IRPJ, calculated over estimated income. For most companies, such monthly estimated income corresponds to eight percent (8%) of the total monthly gross revenues plus capital gains and other revenues and positive results incurred by the company. Such percentage ranges from 8% to 32%, depending on the activity performed by the taxpayer. Over this tax basis, the fifteen percent (15%) rate applies, plus the ten percent (10%) surtax on estimated income exceeding approximately 20,000 Brazilian Real per month. When the annual method of calculation is adopted, with payment of monthly anticipations, at the end of the year, the entities must either pay or request reimbursement for the difference between the amount paid monthly and that calculated on annual income.



- 62 -




Net operating losses ("NOLs") generated in a given period can offset taxable income of the subsequent period, limited to thirty percent (30%) of taxable income (i.e., for each R$ 1.00 of income, R$0.70 must be subject to taxation, regardless of the existing amount of NOL). Tax losses may be carried forward, without statute of limitation.

Another used method of calculating income tax is the presumed method (" apuração de imposto de renda por   lucro presumido" ). In this case, the income tax is calculated on a quarterly basis and for most activities, the tax basis corresponds to eight percent (8%) of gross revenues. There are other applicable rates to calculate presumed income related to certain specific activities (e.g., thirty-two percent [32%] for most service activities). Over the presumed income, income tax rates of fifteen percent (15%) and ten percent (10%) surtax levied on presumed income exceeding 60,000 Brazilian Real per quarter are applied. If the presumed method of taxation is adopted, the taxpayer is not subject to any adjustment according to annual actual income. Among other requirements for eligibility the Brazilian company's revenues earned in the previous taxable year must not exceed 48,000 Brazilian Real.

In addition to the Corporate Income Tax, Brazilian companies are subject to the Social Contribution on Net Profits ("CSLL"), which is in fact a true corporate income tax surcharge. The CSLL applies at a rate of nine percent (9%). The reason why it is levied separately is that it is specifically allocated to the social security system. Most rules concerning book and presumed profit methods also apply to CSLL (the CSLL basis in the presumed profit method may be different from the one applicable to the Corporate Income Tax).

Other Taxes that Brazilian Companies Are Subject To That May Be Relevant To Foreign Investors

· Tax on Credit, Exchange, Insurance and Securities Transactions (IOF): the IOF is imposed on foreign currency exchange transactions, among other transactions. Currently, however, a zero rate applies to most cases

· Other Brazilian taxes: Brazil charge taxes over company's gross turn-over, sale of goods, manufacturing of goods, services, property, transfer of property, transportation, importation, exportation, among other activities.
 
 
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for our common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of the common stock. Upon completion of the Offering, there will be up to 5,000,000 shares of our common stock outstanding.

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated), including an affiliate, who beneficially owns "restricted securities" may not sell those securities until they have been beneficially owned for at least one year.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
 
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
The Republic of the Marshall Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company's Articles of Incorporation may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Republic of the Marshall Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences or committing a crime. Our Articles of Incorporation provide for indemnification of any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, (other than an action by or in the right of our Company) by reason of the fact he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company, a  director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (the "Indemnitee"), against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding unless a final and unappealable determination by a court of competent jurisdiction has been made that he or she did not act in good faith or in a manner he or she did not reasonably believe to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
 
ITEM 7. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
 
Since our inception on July 27, 2016, we have issued the following securities. We believe that the following issuance was exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Regulation pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act regarding transactions not involving a public offering.

July 27, 2016: 4,000,000 shares of common stock sold to Brazil Minerals as described in the subsection entitled "Our History" above.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
 
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
 
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 (4) If the registrant is a foreign private issuer, to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act need not be furnished, provided that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or Rule 3-19 of this chapter if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3.

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(c) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Jupiter Gold Corporation:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Jupiter Gold Corporation ("the Company") as of August 31, 2016, and the related statement of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the period July 27, 2016 (inception) through August 31, 2016. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. 
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 
 
In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Jupiter Gold Corporation, as of August 31, 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period July 27, 2016 (inception) through August 31, 2016, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
 
The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

JUPITER GOLD CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Description of Business
Jupiter Gold Corporation ("Jupiter Gold", or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands on July 27, 2016.  The Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Mineração Jupiter Ltda. ("MJL"),
is building a portable gold recovery plant to recover gold from certain mining areas in Brazil owned by Brazil Minerals, Inc. ("Brazil Minerals"), Jupiter Gold's parent company. Jupiter Gold also owns eight mineral rights for gold in Brazil, all in the early greenfield stage; it has not performed any geological studies to date in the mineral rights it owns.

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Jupiter Gold and its 99.99% owned subsidiary, MJL.

MJL was incorporated on January 6, 2015 in Brazil. On July 27, 2016, Brazil Minerals exchanged its 99.99% ownership in MJL for 4,000,000 newly issued shares of Jupiter Gold's common stock. The remaining 0.01% in MJL is to account for the need in Brazil of two owners to register a company able to pursue the business line intended; this 0.01% ownership is held by a director of Jupiter Gold. For accounting purposes this 0.01% ownership is considered immaterial and, therefore as of August 31, 2016, MJL has been consolidated as a wholly-owned subsidiary.

Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Jupiter Gold pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements have been included.  Such adjustments consist of normal recurring adjustments. 

Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Jupiter Gold have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") of the United States of America and are presented in U.S. dollars.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Jupiter Gold follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of Jupiter Gold. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect Jupiter Gold's assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
 
F-6




JUPITER GOLD CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
 
Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
 
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of August 31, 2016, Jupiter Gold did not have any level 2 or 3 assets or liabilities. 

Jupiter Gold's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and plant and property. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to either length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent that the funds are not being held for investment purposes. Funds held in Brazilian banks are insured up to 250,000 Brazilian Reals (translating into approximately $ 77,153 as of August 31, 2016).

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations as other gain or loss, net.

As of August 31, 2016, MJL had a gold recovery plant being built for which it will pay 23,000 Brazilian Reals (approximately $7,098). It expects the delivery of such plant by September 15, 2016.


Mineral Properties

Costs of exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs, including licenses and lease payments, are capitalized. Although MJL has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the MJL's rights. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

Impairment losses are recorded on mineral properties used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. As of August 31, 2016, Jupiter Gold did not recognize any impairment losses related to mineral properties held.




F-7






JUPITER GOLD CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Intangible Assets
For intangible assets purchased in a business combination, the estimated fair values of the assets received are used to establish their recorded values. For intangible assets acquired in a non-monetary exchange, the estimated fair values of the assets transferred (or the estimated fair values of the assets received, if more clearly evident) are used to establish their recorded values, unless the values of neither the assets received nor the assets transferred are determinable within reasonable limits, in which case the assets received are measured based on the carrying values of the assets transferred. Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach are used to measure fair value. Intangible assets consist of mineral right agreements held by MJL. These rights amount to $2,114, are recorded at cost, and represent fees paid by Brazil Minerals, a related party, to the Brazilian national mining department.



Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


For long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, Jupiter Gold continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, Jupiter Gold recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. 

None of the mineral rights obtained is more than five weeks old in terms of ownership; therefore no research has been performed yet on them and they are carried at cost


Foreign Currency
The Jupiter Gold's subsidiary, MJL, uses a local currency as the functional currency. Resulting translation gains or losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Transaction gains or losses related to balances denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Net foreign currency transaction losses included in Jupiter Gold's consolidated statements of operations were negligible for all periods presented. For the period from July 27- August 31, 2016 the Brazilian real had very little fluctuation and the impact on accumulated other comprehensive income was deemed immaterial.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed other recent accounting pronouncements issued to the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements, and we do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on Jupiter Gold.


NOTE 2 –ACQUISITIONS

Mineração Jupiter Ltda. ("MJL")

On July 27, 2016, Brazil Minerals exchanged its 99.99% ownership in MJL for 4,000,000 newly issued shares of Jupiter Gold's common stock. Since the acquisition was made from a related party, all assets and liabilities were reflected at cost, and no goodwill was recognized on the transaction.

This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT ("Registration Agreement") is entered as of July 27, 2016 by and between Jupiter Gold Corporation, a Marshall Islands corporation ("Jupiter Gold"), and Brazil Minerals, Inc., a Nevada, United States of America corporation ("Brazil Minerals").

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS,   Brazil Minerals and Jupiter Gold are simultaneously entering into and consummating a Stock Purchase and Sale Agreement of even date herewith pursuant to which Jupiter Gold is issuing to Brazil Minerals 4,000,000 shares of Jupiter Gold's common stock (the "Registrable Shares");

WHEREAS, Brazil Minerals may periodically want to sell some or all of the Registrable Shares;

WHEREAS, the non-interested directors on the Board of Directors of Jupiter Gold have unanimously approved this Registration Agreement and the interested director has abstained from such vote having disclosed his interest in the transaction; and

WHEREAS, the non-interested directors on the Board of Directors of Brazil Minerals have unanimously approved this Registration Agreement and the interested director has abstained from such vote having disclosed his interest in the transaction.

NOW THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged:

1.
Piggyback Registration Rights .

(a)                    Right to Piggyback .  Whenever Jupiter Gold proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration and contemplated disposition of Registrable Securities (a "Piggyback Registration"), Jupiter Gold will give prompt written notice to Brazil Minerals of its intention to effect such a registration so that such notice is received by Brazil Minerals at least twenty (20) days before the anticipated filing date.  Jupiter Gold will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which Jupiter Gold has received a written request for inclusion therein subject to any limitations on the number of shares that may be registered for resale that may be imposed by law, including positions of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").



Exhibit 10.2 -- Page 1



(b) Piggyback Expenses .  In connection with each Piggyback Registration, all of the expenses incurred in compliance with Section 1(a), including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for Jupiter Gold and blue sky fees and expenses will be paid by Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals shall pay all of the underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for Brazil Minerals attributable to the sale of its securities pursuant to the Piggyback Registration.

(c) Priority on Primary Registrations .  If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of Jupiter Gold, and the managing underwriters advise Jupiter Gold in writing that in their opinion the distribution of the Registrable Securities to be included concurrently with the securities being registered on behalf of Jupiter Gold would materially adversely affect the distribution of such securities by Jupiter Gold, Jupiter Gold will include in such registration (i) first, the securities Jupiter Gold proposes to sell, (ii) second, the Registrable Securities; and (iii) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration.

2.
Holdback Agreements .

(a)              Brazil Minerals agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of equity securities of Jupiter Gold, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven (7) days prior to and the 90 day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten Piggyback Registration in which Brazil Minerals participates (except as part of such underwritten registration or with the consent of the managing underwriter).

(b)              Jupiter Gold agrees (i) not to effect any public sale or distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven (7) days prior to and the 90 day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten Piggyback Registration (except (A) as part of such underwritten registration, (B) with the consent of the managing underwriter or (C) pursuant to registrations on Form S 8 or any other similar form for employee benefit plans), and (ii) to use its reasonable best efforts to cause each holder of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, purchased from Jupiter Gold at any time after the date of this Agreement (other than in a registered public offering) to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution of any such securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration, if otherwise permitted or with the consent of the managing underwriter).

(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities, which registration statement will state that Brazil Minerals may sell such Registrable Securities either under such registration statement or, at Brazil Minerals' proper request, pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar rule then in effect), and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective (provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, Jupiter Gold will furnish to the counsel selected by Brazil Minerals copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review and approval of such counsel);

(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for the period set forth in Section 3(k) hereof and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;

(c) furnish to Brazil Minerals such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as Brazil Minerals may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities;

Exhibit 10.2 -- Page 3





(e) notify Brazil Minerals at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, Jupiter Gold will prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, such prospectus (or any document incorporated therein by reference) will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(f) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by Jupiter Gold are then listed or quoted;

(k) keep each registration statement effective for a period of one year after the effective date of such registration statement.



Exhibit 10.2 -- Page 4





4 Indemnification .  In the event of any registration under the provisions of this Registration Agreement, Jupiter Gold, to the extent permitted by law, will indemnify Brazil Minerals, its officers and directors, if any, and each person, if any, who controls Brazil Minerals within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement or prospectus (and as amended or supplemented if Jupiter Gold shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and will reimburse Brazil Minerals, its officers and directors and any person, if any, who controls Brazil Minerals within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Brazil Minerals or such officer, director or person in connection with investigating or defending any such losses, claims, damages and liabilities, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any untrue statement or omission contained in information furnished in writing to Jupiter Gold by such person participating in such registration or by underwriters expressly for use therein.  The obligation of Jupiter Gold under this Registration Agreement to register securities for Brazil Minerals shall be subject to the condition that each Brazil Minerals and the underwriters involved in the offering shall furnish to Jupiter Gold in writing such information as shall be reasonably requested by Jupiter Gold for use in connection with the preparation of any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify Jupiter Gold, its directors and officers, any other underwriter, the other persons participating in such registration and each person, if any, who controls Jupiter Gold, any other underwriter, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement or omission contained in information so furnished in writing to Jupiter Gold by such person or such underwriter expressly for use therein.



Exhibit 10.2 -- Page 5




5. Contribution .  If the indemnification provided for in this Registration Agreement from the indemnifying party is unavailable as a matter of law or public policy to any indemnified party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action.  The amount paid or payable by a party under this Registration Agreement as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.  The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to herein.

6.  Termination .  The registration rights provided in this Registration Agreement shall terminate when Brazil Minerals can immediately sell all of the Registrable Shares in a single sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

7.              This Registration Agreement may only be amended by a written instrument executed by both Jupiter Gold and Brazil Minerals.

The exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, provided that the per share exercise price of a Stock Option shall not be less than 100% (or, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, 110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time of grant.

(b) Stock Option Term . The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee, provided that no Stock Option shall be exercisable more than 10 years after the date the Option is granted; and provided further that the term of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder shall not exceed five years.

(c) Exercisability . Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at grant. If the Committee provides, in its discretion, that any Stock Option is exercisable subject to certain limitations (including, without limitation, that such Stock Option is exercisable only in installments or within certain time periods), the Committee may waive such limitations on the exercisability at any time at or after grant in whole or in part (including, without limitation, waiver of the installment exercise provisions or acceleration of the time at which such Stock Option may be exercised), based on such factors, if any, as the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion. In the event that a written employment agreement between the Company and a Participant provides for a vesting schedule that is more favorable than the vesting schedule provided in the
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 14



form of Award agreement, the vesting schedule in such employment agreement shall govern, provided that such agreement is in effect on the date of grant and applicable to the specific Award.

(d) Method of Exercise . Subject to whatever installment exercise and waiting period provisions apply under subsection (c) above, to the extent vested, Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Option term, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price as follows: (i) in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) solely to the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Committee authorizes, through a procedure whereby the Participant delivers irrevocable instructions to a broker reasonably acceptable to the Committee to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the purchase price; or (iii) on such other terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Committee (including, without limitation, the relinquishment of Stock Options so as to permit a "cashless exercise" or by payment in full or in part in the form of Common Stock owned by the Participant based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the payment date as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion). No shares of Common Stock shall be issued until payment therefor, as provided herein, has been made or provided for.

(e) Non-Transferability of Options . No Stock Option shall be Transferable by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the Participant's lifetime, only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant or thereafter that a Non-Qualified Stock Option that is otherwise not Transferable pursuant to this Section is Transferable to a Family Member in whole or in part and in such circumstances, and under such conditions, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. A Non- Qualified Stock Option that is Transferred to a Family Member pursuant to the preceding sentence (i) may not be subsequently Transferred otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (ii) remains subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award agreement. Any shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option by a permissible transferee of a Non- Qualified Stock Option or a permissible transferee pursuant to a Transfer after the exercise of the Non-Qualified Stock Option shall be subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award agreement.

(f) Incentive Stock Option Limitations . To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Eligible Employee during any calendar year under this Plan

15
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 15



and/or any other stock option plan of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Parent exceeds $500,000, such Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. Should any provision of this Plan not be necessary in order for the Stock Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, or should any additional provisions be required, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend this Plan accordingly, without the necessity of obtaining the approval of the stockholders of the Company.

(g) Form, Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options . Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of this Plan, Stock Options shall be evidenced by such form of agreement or grant as is approved by the Committee, and the Committee may, in its sole discretion (i)    modify, extend or renew outstanding Stock Options granted under this Plan (provided that the rights of a Participant are not reduced without his or her consent and provided further that such action does not subject the Stock Options to Section 409A of the Code), and (ii) accept the surrender of outstanding Stock Options (up to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of new Stock Options in substitution therefor (to the extent not theretofore exercised). Notwithstanding the foregoing, an outstanding Option may not be modified to reduce the exercise price thereof nor may a new Option at a lower price be substituted for a surrendered Option (other than adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 4.2), unless such action is approved by the stockholders of the Company.
 
(h) Early Exercise . The Committee may provide that a Stock Option include a provision whereby the Participant may elect at any time before the Participant's Termination to exercise the Stock Option as to any part or all of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Option prior to the full vesting of the Stock Option and such shares shall be subject to the provisions of Article VIII and treated as Restricted Stock. Any unvested shares of Common Stock so purchased may be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the Company or to any other restriction the Committee determines to be appropriate.
 
(i) Other Terms and Conditions .    Stock Options may contain such other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, deem appropriate.

(b) Term . A Tandem Stock Appreciation Right or applicable portion thereof granted with respect to a Reference Stock Option shall terminate and no longer be exercisable upon the termination or exercise of the Reference Stock Option, except that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant, a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right granted with respect to less than the full number of shares covered by the Reference Stock Option shall not be reduced until and then only to the extent the exercise or termination of the Reference Stock Option causes the number of shares covered by the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right to exceed the number of shares remaining available and unexercised under the Reference Stock Option.

(c)              Exercisability .   Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent that the Reference Stock Options to which they relate shall be exercisable in accordance with the provisions of Article VI, and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6.3(c).

(d)              Method of Exercise .     A Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised by the Participant by surrendering the applicable portion of the Reference Stock Option. Upon such exercise and surrender, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount determined in the manner prescribed in this Section 7.2.

(e) Payment . Upon the exercise of a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right, a Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but no more than, an amount in cash or a number of shares of Common Stock (as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, on the date of grant) equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock over the Option exercise price per share specified in the Reference Stock Option agreement, multiplied by the number of shares in respect of which the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall have been exercised.
 
 
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 17


 

(f)              Deemed Exercise of Reference Stock Option .     Upon the exercise of a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right, the Reference Stock Option or part thereof to which such Stock Appreciation Right is related shall be deemed to have been exercised for the purpose of the limitation set forth in Article IV of the Plan on the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued under the Plan.

(g)              Non-Transferability .         Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights shall be Transferable only when and to the extent that the underlying Stock Option would be Transferable under Section 6.3(e) of the Plan.

7.3              Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights .       Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights may also be granted without reference to any Stock Options granted under this Plan.

7.4              Terms and Conditions of Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights .    Non- Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights granted hereunder shall be subject to such terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as shall be determined from time to time by the Committee in its sole discretion, and the following:

(a) Exercise Price . The exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to a Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, provided that the per share exercise price of a Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time of grant.

(b) Term . The term of each Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be fixed by the Committee, but shall not be greater than 10 years after the date the right is granted.

In the event that a written employment agreement between the Company and a Participant provides for a vesting schedule that is more favorable than the vesting schedule provided in the form of Award agreement, the vesting schedule in such employment agreement shall govern, provided that such agreement is in effect on the date of grant and applicable to the specific Award.

 
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 18

Subject to whatever installment exercise and waiting period provisions apply under subsection (c) above, Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised in whole or in part at any time in accordance with the applicable Award agreement, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights to be exercised.

(e) Payment . Upon the exercise of a Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Right a Participant shall be entitled to receive, for each right exercised, up to, but no more than, an amount in cash or a number of shares of Common Stock (as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, on the date of grant) equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date the right is exercised over the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date the right was awarded to the Participant.

(f) Non-Transferability . No Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights shall be Transferable by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all such rights shall be exercisable, during the Participant's lifetime, only by the Participant.

Upon the exercise of Limited Stock Appreciation Rights, except as otherwise provided in an Award agreement, the Participant shall receive in cash or Common Stock, as determined by the Committee, an amount equal to the amount (a) set forth in Section 7.2(e) with respect to Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights, or (b) set forth in Section 7.4(e) with respect to Non-Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights, as applicable.

Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 19



 

8.2              Awards and Certificates . Eligible Employees, Consultants and Non-Employee Directors selected to receive Restricted Stock shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such Participant has delivered a fully executed copy of the agreement evidencing the Award to the Company and has otherwise complied with the applicable terms and conditions of such Award. Further, such Award shall be subject to the following conditions:

(a) Purchase Price . The purchase price of Restricted Stock shall be fixed by the Committee. Subject to Section 4.3, the purchase price for shares of Restricted Stock may be zero to the extent permitted by applicable law, and, to the extent not so permitted, such purchase price may not be less than par value.

(b) Acceptance . Awards of Restricted Stock must be accepted within a period of 60 days (or such other period as the Committee may specify) after the grant date, by executing a Restricted Stock agreement and by paying whatever price (if any) the Committee has designated thereunder.

(c)              Legend .                  Each Participant receiving Restricted  Stock shall be issued a stock certificate in respect of such shares of Restricted Stock, unless the Committee elects to use another system, such as book entries by the transfer agent, as evidencing  ownership of shares of Restricted Stock. Such certificate shall be registered in the name of such Participant, and shall, in addition to such legends required by applicable securities laws, bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award, substantially in the following form:

"The anticipation, alienation, attachment, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge of the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) of the Jupiter Gold Corporation (the "Company") 2016 Incentive Plan (the "Plan") and an agreement entered into between the registered owner and the Company dated. Copies of such Plan and agreement are on file at the principal office of the Company."

(d) Custody . If stock certificates are issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock, the Committee may require that any stock certificates evidencing such shares be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that, as a condition of any grant of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have delivered a duly signed stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Common Stock covered by such Award.

8.3              Restrictions and Conditions . The shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Plan shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions:
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 20



(a) Restriction Period . (i) The Participant shall not be permitted to Transfer shares of Restricted Stock awarded under this Plan during the period or periods set by the Committee (the " Restriction Period ") commencing on the date of such Award, as set forth in a Restricted Stock Award agreement and such agreement shall set forth a vesting schedule and any events which would accelerate vesting of the shares of Restricted Stock. Within these limits, based on service, attainment of performance goals pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(ii) below and/or such other factors or criteria as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion, the Committee may condition the grant or provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments in whole or in part, or may accelerate the vesting of all or any part of any Restricted Stock Award and/or waive the deferral limitations for all or any part of any Restricted Stock Award. In the event that a written employment agreement between the Company and a Participant provides for a vesting schedule that is more favorable than the vesting schedule provided in the form of Award agreement, the vesting schedule in such employment agreement shall govern, provided that such agreement is in effect on the date of grant and applicable to the specific Award.

(ii)   Objective Performance Goals, Formulae or Standards .  If the grant of shares of Restricted Stock or the lapse of restrictions is based on the attainment of Performance Goals, the Committee shall establish the Performance Goals and the applicable vesting percentage of the Restricted Stock Award applicable to each Participant or class of Participants in writing prior to the beginning of the applicable fiscal year or at such later date as otherwise determined by the Committee and while the outcome of the Performance Goals are substantially uncertain. Such Performance Goals may incorporate provisions for disregarding (or adjusting for) changes in accounting methods, corporate transactions (including, without limitation, dispositions and acquisitions) and other similar type events or circumstances. With regard to a Restricted Stock Award that is intended to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code, to the extent any such provision would create impermissible discretion under Section 162(m) of the Code or otherwise violate Section 162(m) of the Code, such provision shall be of no force or effect.

(b) Rights as a Stockholder . Except as provided in this subsection (b) and subsection (a) above and as otherwise determined by the Committee, the Participant shall have, with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a holder of shares of Common Stock of the Company including, without limitation, the right to receive any dividends, the right to vote such shares and, subject to and conditioned upon the full vesting of shares of Restricted Stock, the right to tender such shares. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine at the time of grant that the payment of dividends shall be deferred until, and conditioned upon, the expiration of the applicable Restriction Period.
 
 
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 21



(c) Lapse of Restrictions . If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Stock, the certificates for such shares shall be delivered to the Participant. All legends shall be removed from said certificates at the time of delivery to the Participant, except as otherwise required by applicable law or other limitations imposed by the Committee.

ARTICLE XI

PERFORMANCE-BASED CASH AWARDS

11.1              Performance-Based Cash Awards . Performance-Based Cash Awards may be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or Restricted Stock. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, have authority to determine the Eligible Employees, Consultants and Non- Employee Directors to whom, and the time or times at which, such Awards shall be made, the dollar amount to be awarded pursuant to such Awards, and all other conditions of the Awards. The Committee may also provide for the payment of a dollar amount under such Awards upon the completion of a specified Performance Period.

For each Participant, the Committee may specify a targeted performance award. The individual target award may be expressed, at the Committee's discretion, as a fixed dollar amount, a percentage of base pay or total pay (excluding payments made under the Plan), or an amount determined pursuant to an objective formula or standard. Establishment of an individual target award for a Participant for a calendar year shall not imply or require that the same level individual target award (if any such award is established by the Committee for the relevant Participant) be set for any subsequent calendar year. At the time the Performance Goals are established, the Committee shall prescribe a formula to determine the percentages (which may be greater than 100%) of the individual target award which may be payable based upon the degree of attainment of the Performance Goals during the calendar year. Notwithstanding anything else herein, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay a Participant an amount that is less than the Participant's individual target award (or attained percentage thereof) regardless of the degree of attainment of the Performance Goals; provided that no such discretion to reduce an Award earned based on achievement of the applicable Performance Goals shall be permitted for the calendar year in which a Change in Control of the Company occurs, or during such calendar year with regard to the prior calendar year if the Awards for the prior calendar year have not been made by the time of the Change in Control of the Company, with regard to individuals who were Participants at the time of the Change in Control of the Company.

11.2              Terms and Conditions .            Performance-Based Awards made pursuant to this Article XI shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 25



 

(b) Waiver of Limitation . In the event of the Participant's Disability or death, or in cases of special circumstances, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive in whole or in part any or all of the limitations imposed hereunder (if any) with respect to any or all of an Award under this Article XI.

(c) Objective Performance Goals, Formulae or Standards .

(i)              The Committee shall establish the objective Performance Goals and the individual target award (if any) applicable to each Participant or class of Participants in writing prior to the beginning of the applicable Performance Period or at such later date as permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code and while the outcome of the Performance Goals are substantially uncertain. Such Performance Goals may incorporate, if and only to the extent permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code, provisions for disregarding (or adjusting for) changes in accounting methods, corporate transactions (including, without limitation, dispositions and acquisitions) and other similar type events or circumstances. To the extent any Performance-Based Award is intended to comply with the provisions  of Section 162(m) of the Code, if any provision would create impermissible discretion under Section 162(m) of the Code or otherwise violate Section 162(m) of the Code, such provision shall be of no force or effect.

(ii)              The measurements used in Performance Goals set under the Plan shall be determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (" GAAP "), except, to the extent that any objective Performance Goals are used, if any measurements require deviation from GAAP, such deviation shall be at the discretion of the Committee at the time the Performance Goals are set or at such later time to the extent permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code.

(d) Payment . Following the Committee's determination and certification in accordance with subsection (a) above, the Performance-Based Cash Award amount shall be delivered to the Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director, or his legal representative, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Award agreement.

13.2              Change in Control .             Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in the applicable Award agreement (or other written agreement approved by the Committee including, without limitation, an employment agreement), a " Change in Control" shall be deemed to occur on the occurrence of any of the following:

(a) An acquisition of any common stock or other voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally for the election of directors (the " Voting Securities ") by any "Person" or "Group" (as each such term is used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act), immediately after which such Person or Group, as the case may be, has " Beneficial Ownership " (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of more than 20% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding Voting Securities; provided , however , that in determining whether a "Change in Control" has occurred, shares of Common Stock or Voting Securities that are acquired in a Non-Control Acquisition (as defined below) shall not constitute an acquisition which would cause a Change in Control. A " Non-Control Acquisition " shall mean an acquisition by (i) the Company, (ii) any Subsidiary or (iii) any employee benefit plan maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary, including a trust forming part of any such plan (an " Employee Benefit Plan ");

(b) During any 2-year period, individuals who, at the beginning of such 2-year period, constitute the Board (the " Incumbent Board of Directors "), cease for any reason to constitute at least 50% of the members of the Board; provided, however, that (i) if the election or nomination for election by the Company's shareholders of any new director was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent Board of Directors, such new director shall, for purposes hereof, be deemed to be a member of the Incumbent Board of Directors, and (ii) no individual shall be deemed to be a member of the Incumbent Board of Directors if such individual initially assumed office as a result of either an actual or threatened " Election Contest" (as described in Rule 14a-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person or Group other than the Board of Directors (a " Proxy Contest" ) including by reason of any agreement intended to avoid or settle any Election Contest or Proxy Contest;

(c) The consummation of a merger, consolidation or reorganization involving the Company or any Subsidiary, unless the merger, consolidation or reorganizationisaNon-ControlTransaction.A" Non-Control   Transaction " shall mean a merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Company or any Subsidiary where: (A) the shareholders of the Company
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 29



(or such Subsidiary, as the case may be) who immediately prior to the merger, consolidation or reorganization owned, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding Voting Securities of the Company or such Subsidiary immediately following such merger, consolidation or reorganization, own at least 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the corporation resulting from such merger, consolidation or reorganization (the " Surviving Corporation "), in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Common Stock or Voting Securities, as the case may be, immediately prior to the merger, consolidation or reorganization; (B) the individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board of Directors immediately prior to the execution of the agreement providing for the merger, consolidation or reorganization constitute at least two-thirds of the members of the board of directors of the  Surviving Corporation, or a corporation beneficially owning, directly or indirectly, a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Surviving Corporation, and (C) no Person or Group, other than (1) the Company, (2) any Subsidiary, (3) any Employee Benefit Plan or (4) any other Person or Group who, immediately prior to the merger, consolidation or reorganization, had Beneficial Ownership of not less than 20% of the  outstanding Voting Securities or Common Stock, has Beneficial Ownership of 20% or more of the combined voting power   of the Surviving Corporation's outstanding voting securities or common stock;

(d) A complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or

(e) The sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any Person (other than a transfer to a Subsidiary).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a "Change in Control" shall not be deemed to have occurred solely because any Person or Group (the " Subject Person ") acquired Beneficial Ownership of  more than the permitted amount of the then outstanding Voting Securities or Common Stock of the Company as a result of an acquisition of Voting Securities or Common Stock by the Company, which, by reducing the number of shares of Voting Securities or Common Stock then outstanding, increases the proportional number of shares beneficially owned by the Subject Person; provided, however, that if a Change in Control would have occurred (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of Voting Securities or common stock by the Company, and after such acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person becomes the beneficial owner of any additional shares of Voting Securities or Common Stock, which increases the percentage of the then outstanding shares of Voting Securities or Common Stock beneficially owned by the Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the acquisition or ownership of any Common Stock or Voting Securities by Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. and its Affiliates (determined as if it was the Company) shall not cause or result in a Change in Control.
Exhibit 10.7 -- Page 30
