Subject to Completion, Preliminary Prospectus dated September 9, 2016

MOXIAN, INC.

MINIMUM OFFERING: 2,500,000 shares of common stock
MAXIMUM OFFERING: 5,000,000 shares of common stock

Moxian, Inc. is offering a minimum of 2,500,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and a maximum of 5,000,000 shares of common stock. We currently expect the public offering price to be $4.00 per share of common stock. The offering is being made on a “best efforts” basis without a firm commitment by the placement agents, who have no obligation or commitment to purchase any of our shares. The placement agents must sell the minimum number of shares offered (2,500,000 shares of common stock), if any are sold, and are only required to use their best efforts to sell the shares offered. The offering will remain open through November 14, 2016. See “Plan of Distribution.”

On September 7, 2016, we entered into note conversion agreements with Shenzhen Bayi Consulting Co. Ltd. and Moxian China Limited. The note conversion agreements provide for the conversion of promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $2 million payable by us into shares of our common stock at the public offering price. On the date of this prospectus, the notes will automatically convert into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the public offering price per share being offered in this offering.

We are a reporting company under Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB Marketplace (the “OTCQB”) under the symbol “MOXC.” There is a limited public trading market for our common stock. We have applied to list our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “MOXC.”

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors beginning on page 7 of this prospectus before purchasing shares of our common stock.

SUMMARY

This summary highlights certain information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. For a more complete understanding of this offering, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the information under “Risk Factors” and our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus before investing in our common stock.

On June 20, 2016, we effected a 1 for 2 reverse split on our shares of common stock and the proportional reduction of our authorized shares from 500,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares.

Overview

We are in the O2O (“Online-to-Offline”) business. With respect to our business, O2O means providing an online platform for small and medium sized enterprises (“SMEs”) with brick and mortar businesses that allows them to conduct business, interact with existing customers and obtain new customers online. We refer to our customers as “Merchant Clients” and we use the term “Users,” to refer to those existing and potential customers of our Merchant Clients who use our mobile application and platform. Through the features, products and services offered on our platform, we seek to create interactions between Users and Merchant Clients, which will allow Merchant Clients to study consumer behavior. Our platform has five main components that allow Merchant Clients to conduct targeted advertising campaigns and promotions, which we believe are effective because they are geared to the customers that a Merchant Client wishes to attract. Our platform is also designed and built to encourage Users to return and refer new Users, each of which is a potential customer for our Merchant Clients.

The Platform

“Moxian+” is an App that caters to SMEs that wish to promote services and products offered at their brick and mortar stores through social media. The application connects Users to Merchant Clients through games, rewards and social events that they enjoy and in return, Users provide valuable information such as their nickname, gender, birthdate, age, career, hometown, school and residential area that our Merchant Clients can use to market their products and services effectively.

We have two different mobile applications, one for individual Users, referred to as the Moxian+ User App, and one for our Merchant Clients, referred to as the Moxian+ Business App. The apps connect to each other to form a symbiotic relationship that provides Users with entertainment and social interaction while the Merchant Clients get the chance to advertise products and services.

Merchant Clients can choose between a free or paid account. With a free account, Merchant Clients get a “Do It Yourself” webpage and can add different modules into their account, including the address and phone number of the business, as well as list up to five products. When a Merchant Client purchases one of our subscription packages they get access to a number of robust add-on features including, the ability to manage social relationships and target marketing, as well as other features. Our subscription packages range from a free account to a paid subscription of $2,000 per year.

Our individual Users, also called “MO-Pals,” can download the Moxian+ User App free-of-charge on their Android or iOS smartphone. Users provide basic information to sign up for an account and then can invite friends and family members to join Moxian+, search and join different interest groups and participate in social media by sharing activities, stories, photos and videos. They can also send micro-blog messages, play online games in Moxian+’s game center, and earn MO-Coins, a virtual currency similar to credit card reward points, among other the features.

There are five main components to the Moxian+ platform, which we believe provide the most robust and beneficial experience for both the Merchant Clients and the Users. These components form the Moxian+ backend.

(1)       Social Media Engine — allows users to connect with each other, discover new friends, share interests and swap media. It also allows Merchant Clients to reach individual Users.

(2)       E-commerce features — Merchant Clients are able to conduct business by posting products, offering coupons and advertising sales as well as creating events and blogs. Users can also order products at the Merchant Clients’ online shops for express delivery.

(3)       Rewards — Users can obtain MO-Points when they shop online, which allow them to play games on our platform or engage in other activities sponsored by Merchant Clients and MO-Points that can either

1

be redeemed at Merchant Clients’ online shops, or can be redeemed for MO-Coins which are virtual currency that can be used at any Merchant Client’s physical store location.

(4)       Game Development — allows Users to play games to earn MO-Points and MO-Coins and other rewards which may be specific to a certain Merchant Client.

(5)       Data Analytics — provides reports on consumer behaviors to each Merchant Client to help them better design their promotions and reach their target audience.

Our Strategy

We use two benchmarks to measure growth: (1) number of users and (2) number of merchants.

Our success depends upon signing up paid Merchant Clients. The Merchant Clients, in turn, help to build up our base of Users by encouraging their customers to download our User App, with the MO-Points and MO-Coins incentives that we provide. In order to attract more Merchant Clients, we also need an established base of Users. Therefore, we are in the process of signing up additional Merchant Clients, as well as acquiring additional Users to download our User App. We are initially marketing to merchants in Shenzhen, China, where we launched Moxian version 1.0.

In order to expand our number of merchants we have a sales force of 20 people based in Shenzhen, China and recently opened an office in Beijing. By the end of 2016, we aim to have a 100 member sales force collectively in Shenzhen and Beijing. In addition, we are scheduling seasonal sales events to promote our products and services to merchants and users. During 2016, we also plan to utilize third party distributors who have an existing base of merchants to market our products and expand into major cities, such as Guangzhou and Shanghai.

Competitive Strengths

Major providers of social network platforms have the advantage of an existing user base. However, we believe that Moxian’s platform offers social media features that enable us to stand out among the competition. Other major social networking platforms usually focus on personal photo sharing, video sharing, chatting, micro-blogging, following others’ online activities, rating and commenting on products and services. Moxian’s platforms offer Merchant Clients (i) individual promotion pages, (ii) local event programs for their customer Users, (iii) location-based promotion information, (iv) mobile chat applications, (v) give-away prizes for the Users, (vi) advertising opportunities on Moxian’s social pages, (vii) a social customer relationship management system, (viii) a loyalty program using MO-Points and MO-Coins, and (ix) customized online games to promote merchants’ brands and group sales promotions. By establishing our Merchant Client base, we believe that we will be able to acquire additional Users.

Recent Development

On September 7, 2016, we entered into note conversion agreements with Shenzhen Bayi Consulting Co. Ltd. and Moxian China Limited. The note conversion agreements provide for the conversion of promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $2 million payable by us into shares of our common stock at the public offering price. On the date of this prospectus, the notes will automatically convert into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the public offering price per share being offered in this offering.

Risk Related to Our Business

Our ability to implement our business strategy is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that you should be aware of before making an investment decision. As a technology company, we face many risks inherent in our business and our industry generally. You should carefully consider all of the information set forth in this prospectus and, in particular, the information under the heading “Risk Factors,” prior to making an investment in our common stock. These risks include, among others, the following:

         We cannot provide any assurance that we have properly registered our intellectual property, or that it has been registered in certain jurisdictions where we do business;

         If the PRC government does not agree that our contractual arrangement with Moyi complies with PRC laws, rules and regulations we could face severe penalties;

         Moxian Shenzhen’s contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing control over Moyi as direct ownership, and any failure by Moyi and its shareholders to perform their obligations under contractual arrangements would have material and adverse effects on our business;

         Loss of, or failure to obtain any license or permit necessary or desirable in the operation of our business could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations;

         If we fail to stay current with new smart phone and mobile device technologies our apps could become obsolete;

         We intend to use Moxian virtual currency to conduct substantially all of the payment processing on our platform. The virtual currency business is highly regulated, and it is subject to a range of risks. If our virtual currency is limited or restricted in any way or becomes unavailable to us for any reason, our business may be materially and adversely affected;

         We currently primarily operate in China and if the growth rate of the Chinese economy continues to slow down, the demand for products sold by our Merchant Clients may also slow down;

         The cross-border online shopping market in China is continuing to grow and may become a new competitor to the Chinese consumer goods market;

         We compete with other IT companies which can develop similar technologies and online-to-offline application to identify consumer behaviors; and

         If China adopts privacy laws they may impact our ability to provide our current data analytics features to Merchant Clients or to develop new uses for such data analytics.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described below and elsewhere in this report, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our business faces significant risks and the risks described below may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may materially affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition. If any of these risks occur, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risk relating to our Business and Industry

If we fail to stay current with new smart phone and mobile device technologies our apps could become obsolete.

Smartphone and mobile devices are evolving rapidly. We incur significant costs for research and development not only for the creation of new products, but also for ensuring that our current products will be compatible with new technologies. If our research and development team fails to upgrade our products to stay current with new technologies, our apps could become obsolete, which could result in a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

If the use of our Mo-Coins becomes restricted or unavailable, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

We use Moxian virtual currency to conduct substantially all of the payment processing on our platform. We track the User behaviors by the usage of Mo-Coins. If the use of virtual currency is limited or restricted in any way or becomes unavailable to us for any reason, the accuracy of our User behavior data may be comprised, and our business could be therefore materially and adversely affected.

The cross-border online shopping market in China is continuing to grow and may become a new competitor to the Chinese consumer goods market.

Currently, all of our Merchant Clients are located in China. As access to cross-border online shopping is made available in China, Chinese consumers may begin to purchase goods outside of China and as a result, the demand for products by Chinese merchants may decline.

We compete with other IT companies which can develop similar technologies and online-to-offline applications to identify consumer behavior.

We are not the only company that analyzes consumer behavior and provides such data to clients. There are other companies that have similar technology or are developing superior technology that can be used in the same or more advantageous ways. We cannot assure you that the market will not become saturated with similar applications, or that our research and development efforts will give us an advantage over these other companies. We rely on our marketing efforts to sell our application and platform over our competitors, but if we are not successful in such efforts our business and results of operations could be significantly harmed.

We depend on our key executives, and our business and growth may be severely disrupted if we lose their services.

Our future success depends substantially on the continued services of our key executives. In particular, we are highly dependent upon Mr. Tan Meng Dong, James, our chairman, chief executive officer and president, who has established relationships within the industries we operate. If we lose the services of one or more of our current executive officers, we may not be able to replace them readily, if at all, with suitable or qualified candidates, and may incur additional expenses to recruit and retain new officers with industry experience similar to our current officers, which could severely disrupt our business and growth. In addition, if any of our executives joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose some of our suppliers or customers. Furthermore, as we expect to continue to expand our operations and develop new products, we will need to continue attracting and retaining experienced management and key research and development personnel.

Competition for qualified candidates could cause us to offer higher compensation and other benefits in order to attract and retain them, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of

7

operations. We may also be unable to attract or retain the personnel necessary to achieve our business objectives, and any failure in this regard could severely disrupt our business and growth.

The technology behind our products contains important trade secrets and know-how, and our ability to compete could be harmed if any such trade secrets and know-how are disclosed to third parties by our engineer.

We regard our trademarks, patents, copyrights and other intellectual property as critical to our success. In particular, we have spent a significant amount of time and resources in developing Moxian+ and our ability to protect our proprietary rights in connection with our platform and apps is critical for the success of our features and services and our overall financial performance. We expect to apply for additional patents, copyrights and trademarks as we continue the development of our platform. However, we cannot assure you that our measures will be sufficient to protect our proprietary information and intellectual property. Implementation of intellectual property laws in China has historically been lacking, primarily because of ambiguities in the laws and difficulties in enforcement.

We may be subject to intellectual property rights disputes, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We could face infringement claims from our competitors or others alleging that our methods, processes or products infringe on their proprietary technologies. If we are found to be infringing on the proprietary technology of others, we may be liable for damages, and we may be required to make changes, to redesign our products partially or completely, to pay to use the technology of others or to stop using certain technologies or producing the alleged infringing product(s) entirely. Even if we ultimately prevail in an infringement suit, the existence of the suit could prompt our Merchant Clients and Users to switch to products that are not the subject of infringement suits. We may not prevail in any intellectual property litigation and such litigation may result in significant legal costs or otherwise impede our ability to market our services.

We cannot provide assurance that we have properly registered our intellectual property, or that it has been registered in certain jurisdictions where we do business.

Some of our technologies are not covered by any patent or patent application and, even if a patent application has been filed, it may not result in an issued patent. If patents are issued to us, those patents may not provide meaningful protection against competitors or against competitive technologies. In addition, upon the expiration of patents issued to us, we will be unable to prevent our competitors from using or introducing products using the formerly-patented technology. As a result, we may be faced with increased competition and our results of operations may be adversely affected. We cannot assure you that our intellectual property rights will not be challenged, invalidated, circumvented or rendered unenforceable.

Third parties may infringe upon our intellectual property rights which may result in damage to our business reputation.

Protection of our methods and technology is important to our business. We generally rely on a combination of the patent, trade secret, trademark and copyright laws of the PRC, the U.S. and Hong Kong as well as licenses and nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements, to protect our intellectual property rights. The patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws of some countries, though, including the PRC and Hong Kong, may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S.

Failure to protect our intellectual property rights may result in the loss of valuable proprietary technologies. Even with safeguards in place, it may be possible for third parties to obtain and use our intellectual property without authorization. The unauthorized use of intellectual property is widespread in China, and enforcement of intellectual property rights by Chinese regulatory agencies is inconsistent. Moreover, litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights. Future litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of our management’s attention and resources and could disrupt our business. If we are unable to enforce our intellectual property rights, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Given the relative unpredictability of China’s legal system and potential difficulties enforcing a court judgment in China, we may be unable to halt the unauthorized use of our intellectual property through litigation. Failure to adequately protect our intellectual property could materially adversely affect our competitive position, our ability to attract students and our results of operations.

8

If China adopts privacy laws, they may impact our ability to provide our current data analytics features to Merchant Clients or to develop new uses for such data analytics.

We use our User data to develop an analysis software. Such data primarily comes from User conversations in our chat room and the personal information supplied when they register to use the app. This data can be analyzed and converted into useful information for us and our Merchant Clients only when we possess a large amount of accurate data. The research process may be deemed to violate the privacy of our Users. Currently, there are no PRC privacy laws governing how such data may be compiled, analyzed or used. If a law is adopted that imposes restrictions on our ability to conduct the analysis and promote data analytics to our Merchant Clients and to develop new products based on such data, our sales and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

If the chops of our subsidiaries and VIEs in China are not kept safely, are stolen or are used by unauthorized persons or for unauthorized purposes, the corporate governance of those entities could be severely and adversely compromised.

In China, a company chop or seal serves as the legal representation of the company towards third parties even when unaccompanied by a signature. Each legally registered company in China is required to have a company chop, which must be registered with the local Public Security Bureau. Our company chops, or chops, are kept securely at our President’s Office under the direction of Chief Executive Officer at the headquarters level or held securely by personnel designated and approved by the General Manager or Headmaster at subsidiaries’ or the VIEs level. Use of chops requires proper approvals in accordance with our internal control procedures. The custodian at the President’s Office also maintains a log to keep a detailed record of each use of the chops. Moreover, the President’s Office is always locked after office hours and only authorized persons have the access to the keys.

The company believes it has sufficient controls in place over access to and use of the chops. We, however, cannot assure you that unauthorized access to or use of those chops can be totally precluded. To the extent those chops are stolen or are used by unauthorized persons or for unauthorized purposes, the corporate governance of these entities could be severely and adversely compromised and the operations of these entities could be significantly and adversely impacted.

Our Chief Executive Officer has identified certain material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. If we are unable to remedy these material weaknesses and establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in the restatement of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanctions, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the market price of our shares.

The matters involving internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015 (the “2015 Annual Report”), which were: (1) lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes; and (4) lack of written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. Subsequent to the 2015 Annual Report, management identified misstatements in the application of certain accounting practices and procedures, which are discussed in detail in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 8, 2016, as amended, and as a result, we restated our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2015, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine month period ended June 30, 2015 and our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six month period ended March 31, 2015. We believe that the lack of a functioning audit committee, the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, and the lack of written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting has resulted in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which resulted in the restatements described above and could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

As a public company we have significant additional requirements for enhanced financial reporting and internal controls and are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of

9

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. In addition, an independent registered public accounting firm will be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K following the date on which we become an accelerated filer or large accelerated filer. The process of designing and implementing effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures 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.

As part of our continuous effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses, we have initiated certain initiatives, including without limitation, appointing outside independent directors and establishing an audit committee, adding financial personnel to our management team and prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity and debt transactions. However, we cannot assure you that the measures we are taking and will take to remediate these areas will be successful or that once implemented, we will be able to maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future as we continue our growth. If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in future restatements of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanctions, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a material adverse effect on the price of our shares.

Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure

If the Peoples Republic of China (‘PRC’) government does not agree that our contractual arrangement with Shenzhen Moyi Technologies Co Ltd. complies with PRC laws, rules and regulations we could face severe penalties.

Foreign investment in the businesses we operate, including telecommunications and Internet information services, is currently prohibited or restricted in China. As a U.S. corporation, we are restricted or prohibited from directly owning all of the equity interests in any PRC company engaged in internet-related businesses. See “Regulation.” As a result, our business in China is operated by our VIE, Shenzhen Moyi Technologies Co Ltd (“Moyi”) through contractual arrangements. Moyi holds the relevant internet content provider, or ICP, licenses, which permits Moyi to engage in the business in China and is currently owned by PRC citizens and/or PRC companies. We have been and expect to continue to be dependent on Moyi to operate this business. We do not have any equity interest in Moyi, but we control their operations and receive substantially all the economic benefits and bear substantially all the economic risks through a series of contractual arrangements.

There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current and future PRC laws, rules and regulations, including but not limited to the laws, rules and regulations governing the validity and enforcement of our contractual arrangements with Moyi. Our current contractual arrangements must also comply with laws and regulations applicable to the Internet industry.

In August 2011, the Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, promulgated the Rules of Ministry of Commerce on Implementation of Security Review System of Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the MOFCOM Security Review Rules, to implement the Notice of the General Office of the State Council on Establishing the Security Review System for Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or Circular No. 6, promulgated on February 3, 2011. Under these rules, a security review by MOFCOM is required for foreign investors’ mergers and acquisitions that have “national defense and security” implications and mergers and acquisitions by which foreign investors may acquire “de facto control” of domestic enterprises that have “national security” implications. The MOFCOM Security Review Rules further prohibit foreign investors from bypassing the security review requirement by structuring transactions through proxies, trusts, indirect investments, leases, loans, control through contractual arrangements or offshore transactions. There is no explicit provision or official interpretation stating that our businesses fall within the scope of transactions subject to security review. We do not believe we are required to submit our existing contractual arrangements to MOFCOM for a security review. However, as there is a lack of clear statutory interpretation regarding the implementation of the rules, there is no assurance that MOFCOM will have the same view as we do when applying these national security review-related circulars and rules.

Moxian HK’s contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing control over Moyi as direct ownership, and any failure by Moyi and its shareholders to perform their obligations under contractual arrangements would have material and adverse effects on our business.

We have no ownership interest in Moyi. We conduct substantially all of our operations and generate substantially all of our revenues through contractual arrangements that our subsidiary, Moxian HK, entered into with Moyi and its shareholders. The contractual arrangements are designed to provide us with effective control over Moyi. See “Our Corporate History and Structure” for a description of these contractual arrangements.

These contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing control as direct ownership. For example, if Moyi or their respective shareholders fail to perform their respective obligations under these contractual arrangements, or if they take other actions that are detrimental to our interests, we may incur substantial costs and have to re-direct resources in connection with enforcing these arrangements. To enforce these arrangements, we may rely on legal remedies available under applicable PRC laws, including seeking specific performance or injunctive relief and claiming damages, but these remedies may not be effective. In particular, if shareholders of Moyi refuse to transfer their equity interests to us or our designated persons when we exercise the purchase option pursuant to these contractual arrangements, or if they were otherwise to act in bad faith toward us, then we may need to initiate legal action to compel them to fulfill their contractual obligations. In addition, we may not be able to renew these contracts with our VIE and/or its respective shareholders. If VIE or their shareholders fail to perform the obligations secured by the pledges under the equity pledge agreements, one of the remedies for default is to require the pledgers to sell the equity interests of VIE in an auction or sale of the shares and remit the proceeds to us, net of all related taxes and expenses. Such an auction or sale of the shares may not result in our receipt of the full value of the equity interests or the business of VIE.

In addition, as all of these contractual arrangements are governed by PRC law and provide for the resolution of disputes through either arbitration or litigation in the PRC, they would be interpreted in accordance with PRC law and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. Any arbitration, legal proceedings or disputes may cost us substantial financial and other resources and result in disruption of our business, and the outcome might not be in our favor. The relevant PRC arbitration panel may conclude that our contractual arrangements violate PRC law or are otherwise unenforceable and we could consequently lose our ability to consolidate Moyi’s results of operations, assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements and/or to transfer the revenues of Moyi to Moxian HK. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could further limit our ability to enforce these contractual arrangements. Under PRC law, prevailing parties in an arbitration proceeding may only enforce the arbitration award in Chinese courts through arbitration award recognition proceedings, which would cause us to incur additional expenses and delay. In the event we are unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, we may not be able to exert effective control over Moyi, and our ability to conduct our business may be materially and adversely affected.

Loss of or failure to obtain any license or permit necessary or desirable in the operation of our business could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Moyi is required to obtain various operating licenses and permits and to make registrations and filings for our current business in China; failure to comply with these requirements may materially adversely affect our business operations. Moyi currently holds an Internet Content Provider, or ICP license, to provide information to online Internet users. In order to engage in and publish online games, Moxian was issued an Online Culture Operating Permit and an Internet Publications Distribution License. Web portals like Moxian are required to apply to and register with the General Administration for Press and Publication (“GAPP”), before distributing Internet publications. Internet publications include content or articles formally published by press media such as: (i) books, newspapers, periodicals, audio-visual products and electronic publications; and (ii) literature, art and articles on natural science, social science, engineering and other topics that have been edited. Moxian has applied for, but has not yet obtained, the license from GAPP that would enable it to distribute Internet publications.

If we are determined not to be in compliance with the applicable licensing requirements or if we fail to cure any non-compliance in a timely manner, we may be subject to fines, confiscation of the gains derived from our noncompliant operations or the suspension of our noncompliant operations, which may materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

11

We are a holding company organized in Nevada, with subsidiaries incorporated in Samoa, the British Virgin Islands, Hong Kong Malaysia & PRC corporations and all of our officers and directors reside outside the US. Therefore, investors may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing original actions in any of these jurisdictions based upon U.S. laws, including the federal securities laws or other foreign laws against us, our officers and directors.

All of our subsidiaries and our current operations are conducted outside of the United States. Moreover, all of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of China and Singapore. All or substantially all of the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible to effect service of process within the United States or elsewhere upon these persons. In addition, uncertainty exists as to whether the courts outside of the U.S. would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or such officers and/or directors predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in jurisdictions outside of the U.S. against us or such persons predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

If the growth rate of the Chinese economy continues to slow down, the demand for products sold by our Merchant Clients may also slow down.

Moody’s Investors Service, which provides credit ratings and research covering debt instruments and securities, downgraded its outlook on the Chinese government debt from “stable” to “negative” which reflects an assumption that the Chinese economy is weakening and continues to slow down. A slowdown in the economy may lead to less demand by consumers for products offered by our Merchant Clients. If our Merchant Clients are impacted by the low demand, they may attempt to curtail expenses by cancelling subscriptions for our services, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, and negatively impact our results of operations.

Contract drafting, interpretation and enforcement in China involves significant uncertainty.

We have entered into numerous contracts governed by PRC law in the ordinary course of our business, many of which are material to our business. As compared with contracts in the United States, contracts governed by PRC law tend to contain less detail and are not as comprehensive in defining contracting parties’ rights and obligations. As a result, contracts in China are more vulnerable to disputes and legal challenges. In addition, contract interpretation and enforcement in China is not as developed as in the United States, and the result of any contract dispute is subject to significant uncertainties. Therefore, we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to disputes under our material contracts, and if such disputes arise, we cannot assure you that we will prevail. As almost all of our contracts in the ordinary course of business are governed by PRC law, any dispute involving such contracts, even those without merit, may materially and adversely affect our reputation and our business operations, and may cause the price of our shares to decline.

Governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to utilize our revenues effectively, whether for securing debt or to expand our business through acquisitions and development and for dividend payments to our shareholders, which may affect the value of your investment.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB. Under our current corporate structure, our Nevada holding company primarily relies on dividend payments from our wholly owned PRC subsidiary in China, Moxian Shenzhen, to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have.

Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior SAFE approval by complying with certain procedural requirements. Therefore, Moxian Shenzhen may pay dividends in foreign currency to us without pre-approval from SAFE. However, approval from or registration with government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. With the prior approval from SAFE, cash generated from the operations of our PRC subsidiary may be used to pay off debt owed to entities outside China in a currency other than RMB. The PRC government may, at its discretion,

12

restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions in the future. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currencies to satisfy our foreign currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders, including holders of the common stock.

Government censorship and control may limit our ability to utilize our platform in China, which may cause becomes restricted or unavailable, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

Our Platform is essential to us in generating revenue. If the use of our platform is limited or restricted in any way or becomes unavailable to us for any reason, Merchant Clients and Users may not be willing to use our platform, and our business could be therefore materially and adversely affected.

Payment of dividends is subject to restrictions under Nevada and the PRC laws.

Under Nevada law, we may only pay dividends subject to our ability to service our debts as they become due and provided that our assets will exceed our liabilities after the dividend. Our ability to pay dividends will therefore depend on our ability to generate sufficient profits. In addition, because of the various rules applicable to our operations in China and the regulations on foreign investments as well as the applicable tax law, we may be subject to further limitations on our ability to declare and pay dividends to our shareholders.

We can give no assurance that we will declare dividends of any amounts, at any rate or at all in the future. The declaration of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements, general financial conditions, legal and contractual restrictions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.

As we derive substantially all of our revenue from the PRC, any downturn in Chinese macroeconomic trends may harm our business.

All of our business operations are conducted in China and all of our revenues are generated in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the amount of government involvement, the level of development, the growth rate, the control of foreign exchange, and the allocation of resources.

While the Chinese economy had grown significantly in the past 30 years, the growth has been uneven geographically among various sectors of the economy, and over the last year we have been experiencing a period of slowdown. We cannot assure you that China’s economy will continue to grow, or that if there is growth, such growth will be steady and uniform, or that if there is a slowdown, such slowdown will not have a negative effect on our business. The PRC government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth by allocating resources, controlling the payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Between late 2003 and 2008, the PRC government implemented a number of measures, such as increasing the PBOC’s statutory deposit reserve ratio and imposing commercial bank lending guidelines, which slowed the growth of credit. In 2008 and 2009, however, in response to the global financial crisis, the PRC government loosened such requirements. Any actions and policies adopted by the PRC government or any prolonged slowdown in China’s economy could have a negative impact on our business, operating results and financial condition in a number of ways.

The enforcement of labor contract law and increase in labor costs in the PRC may adversely affect our business and our profitability.

China adopted a labor contract law and its implementation rules effective on January 1, 2008 and September 18, 2008, respectively. The labor contract law and its implementation rules impose more stringent requirements on employers with regard to, among others, minimum wages, severance payments upon permitted terminations of the employment by an employer and non-fixed term employment contracts, time limits for probation period as well as the duration and the times that an employee can be placed on a fixed term employment contract. Due to the limited period of effectiveness of the labor contract law and its implementation rules, and the lack of clarity with respect to their implementation, potential penalties and fines, it is uncertain how they will impact our current employment policies and practices. Our employment policies and practices may violate the labor contract law or its implementation rules and we may be subject to related penalties, fines or legal fees. Compliance with the

13

labor contract law and its implementation rules may increase our operating expenses, in particular our personnel expenses, as the continued success of our business depends significantly on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. In the event that we decide to terminate some of our employees or otherwise change our employment or labor practices, the labor contract law and its implementation rules may also limit our ability to effect those changes in a manner that we believe to be cost-effective or desirable, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Additionally, PRC companies are subject to various laws and regulations regarding social insurance and housing funds, under which our PRC subsidiary and affiliates are required to pay employees’ pension contributions, housing funds, medical insurance premiums and other welfare-oriented payments.

We must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Foreign companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to these prohibitions. In the foreseeable future, some of our suppliers may be owned by the PRC government and our dealings with them are likely to be considered to be with government officials for these purposes. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in mainland China. If our competitors engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new licenses, which would put us at a disadvantage. We could suffer severe penalties if our employees or other agents were found to have engaged in such practices.

Risks Related to this Offering

Prior to this offering, we had a limited public market for our shares of common stock and you may not be able to resell our shares at or above the price you paid, or at all.

Prior to this offering, there was a limited public market for our common stock in the OTC Market. We cannot assure you that an active public market for our common stock will develop or that the market price of our shares will not decline below the public offering price. The public offering price of our shares may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the trading market following the offering.

Our Chairman of the Board and our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mengdong Tan, own a large percentage of our outstanding stock and could significantly influence the outcome of our corporate matters.

Mr. James Mengdong Tan, our Chairman and CEO, through Good Eastern Investment and Stellar Elite Limited, beneficially owns 46.58% of our outstanding shares of common stock, and after this offering will beneficially own [•]% of our outstanding common stock assuming the minimum offering amount is raised and [•]% of our outstanding common stock assuming the maximum offering amount is raised. As a result, Mr. Tan will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters that require us to obtain shareholder approval, including the election of directors to our board and approval of significant corporate transactions that we may consider, such as a merger or other sale of our company or its assets. This concentration of ownership in our shares by an executive officer will limit the other shareholders’ ability to influence corporate matters and may have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring control over us.

Future sales of substantial amounts of the shares of common stock by existing shareholders could adversely affect the price of our common stock.

If our existing shareholders sell substantial amounts of the shares following this offering, the market price of our common stock could fall. Such sales by our existing shareholders might make it more difficult for us to issue new equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and place we deem appropriate. The [•] shares of common stock offered in this offering will be eligible for immediate resale in the public market without restrictions. All remaining shares, which are currently held by our existing shareholders, may be sold in the public market in the future subject to the lock-up agreements and the restrictions contained in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. If any existing shareholders sell a substantial amount of shares, the prevailing market price for our shares could be adversely affected.

14

The market price of our shares is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors such as:

         variations in our actual and perceived operating results;

         news regarding gains or losses of customers or partners by us or our competitors;

         news regarding gains or losses of key personnel by us or our competitors;

         announcements of competitive developments, acquisitions or strategic alliances in our industry by us or our competitors;

         changes in earnings estimates or buy/sell recommendations by financial analysts;

         potential litigation;

         the imposition of fines or penalties related to our activities in the PRC and failure to comply with applicable rules and regulations;

         general market conditions or other developments affecting us or our industry; and

         the operating and stock price performance of other companies, other industries and other events or factors beyond our control.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of the shares

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Presently, we intend to retain all of our earnings, if any, to finance development and expansion of our business. PRC capital and currency regulations may also limit our ability to pay dividends. Consequently, your only opportunity to achieve a positive return on your investment in us will be if the market price of our common stock appreciates.

We will have discretion in applying a portion of the net proceeds of this offering and may not use these proceeds in ways that will enhance the market value of our common stock.

Our management will have considerable discretion in the application of the proceeds received by us from this offering. Such proceeds may be used to expand our research and development team, acquire new technological hardware, and expand our sales and marketing team all over China and for working capital and general corporate purposes. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. You must rely on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the net proceeds of this offering. The net proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not improve our profitability or increase our common stock price. The net proceeds from this offering may also be placed in investments that do not produce income or that lose value.

Future issuances of capital stock may depress the trading price of our common stock.

Any issuance of shares of our common stock after this offering could dilute the interests of our existing stockholders and could substantially decrease the trading price of our common stock. We may issue additional shares of common stock in the future for a number of reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy (including in connection with acquisitions, strategic collaborations or other transactions).

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could depress the market price of our common stock, and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of our common stock or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of our common stock

15

Investors risk loss of use of funds subscribed, with no right of return, during the offering period.

We cannot assure you that all or any shares of common stock will be sold. The placement agents are offering our shares on a “best efforts minimum/maximum basis.” We have no firm commitment from anyone to purchase all or any of the shares offered. If subscriptions for a minimum of 2,500,000 shares are not received on or before November 14, 2016, escrow provisions require that all funds received be promptly refunded. If refunded, investors will receive no interest on their funds. During the offering period, investors will not have any use or right to return of the funds.

16

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this prospectus that are not descriptions of historical facts are forward-looking statements that are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could negatively affect our business, operating results, financial condition and stock price. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by terminology including “anticipates,” “believes,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “should,” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this prospectus, particularly in the “Risk Factors” section, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make.

You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements in this prospectus by these cautionary statements. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in our expectations or any changes in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law.

17

USE OF PROCEEDS

After deducting the estimated placement agent commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, we expect to receive net proceeds of $9,000,000 from this offering, if the minimum offering amount is sold, or $18,200,000, if the maximum offering amount is sold. Proceeds of this offering in the amount of $500,000 shall be used to fund an escrow account for a period of 24 months following the closing date of this offering, which account shall be used in the event we shall have to indemnify the placement agents pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement. We anticipate that the proceeds of a minimum and a maximum offering would be applied approximately as follows:

MINIMUM OFFERING (2,500,000 Shares)

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

AMOUNT

Expand our business in China and throughout Asia including setting up regional and sales offices in first and second tier cities in China, as well as infrastructure investment for the build-out and expansion of offices in these cities

 

$6.0 million

General corporate purposes and funding potential acquisitions of complementary businesses, assets and technologies

 

$3.0 million

MAXIMUM OFFERING (5,000,000 Shares)

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

AMOUNT

Expand our business in China and throughout Asia including setting up regional and sales offices in first and second tier cities in China, as well as infrastructure investment for the build-out and expansion of offices in these cities

 

$13.1 million

General corporate purposes and funding potential acquisitions of complementary businesses, assets and technologies

 

$5.1 million

The amounts and timing of these expenditures will vary depending on a number of factors, including the amount of cash generated by our operations, competitive and technological developments, and the rate of growth, if any, of our business.

Although we may use a portion of the proceeds for the acquisition of, or investment in, companies, technologies, products or assets that complement our business, we have no present understandings, commitments or agreements to enter into any acquisitions or make any investments. We cannot assure you that we will make any acquisitions or investments in the future.

The loans will convert on the date of this prospectus at the public offering price.

DILUTION

If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share you will pay in this offering and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering. Our net tangible book value as of June 30, 2016 was $(1,251,395) million, or $(0.02) per share of common stock. Our pro forma net tangible book value per share set forth below represents our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding.

If the minimum offering amount is sold at an assumed public offering price of $4.00 per share, which is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, after deducting the estimated placement agent commissions and offering expenses payable by us, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2016 would have been $9.7 million, or $0.15 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value to existing shareholders of $0.17 per share. The public offering price per share will significantly exceed the net tangible book value per share. Accordingly, new investors who purchase shares of common stock in this offering will suffer an immediate dilution of their investment of $3.85 per share. The following table illustrates this per share dilution to the new investors assuming the minimum offering amount is sold:

Assumed public offering price per share

 

$

4.0

Net tangible book value per share as of June 30, 2016

0.17

Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of after giving effect to the offering

 

 

0.15

Dilution per share to new investors

 

$

3.85

A $1.00 increase in the assumed public offering price of $4.00 per share, which is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase the pro forma net tangible book value by $2.3 million, the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering by $0.20 per share and the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to investors in this offering by $0.97 per share, assuming that the minimum number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the estimated placement agent commissions and offering expenses payable by us.

If the maximum offering amount is sold at an assumed public offering price of $4.00 per share, which is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, after deducting the estimated placement agent commissions and offering expenses payable by us, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2016 would have been $18.9 million, or $0.27 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value to existing shareholders of $0.29 per share. The public offering price per share will significantly exceed the net tangible book value per share. Accordingly, new investors who purchase shares of common stock in this offering will suffer an immediate dilution of their investment of $3.73 per share.

The following table illustrates this per share dilution to the new investors assuming the maximum offering amount is sold:

A $1.00 increase in the assumed public offering price of $4.00 per share, which is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase the pro forma net tangible book value by $4.6 million, the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering by $0.36 per share and the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to investors in this offering by $0.93 per share, assuming that the maximum number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the estimated placement agent commissions and offering expenses payable by us.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB under the trading symbol “MOXC.” Our common stock did not trade prior to April 10, 2014.

Trading in stocks quoted on the OTCQB is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with a company’s operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market for our common stock in the future.

For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the high and low bid prices per share of common stock based on inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions. These high and low bid prices per share of common stock have been adjusted to give effect to the 1-for-2 reverse stock split of our common stock effected on June 20, 2016.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Form S-1. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this prospectus, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus.

Overview

We are in the O2O (“Online-to-Offline”) business. While there are many definitions of O2O, with respect to our business, O2O means providing an online platform for small and medium sized enterprises (“SMEs”) with physical stores to conduct business online, interact with existing customers and obtain new customers. We refer to our customers as “Merchant Clients” and the users of our platform that are their existing and potential customers as “Users.” Through our platform and the products and services offered through it, we seek to create interaction between our Users and Merchant Clients by allowing Merchant Clients to study consumer behavior. Our products and services are designed to allow Merchant Clients to conduct targeted advertising campaigns and promotions which we believe are more effective because they are geared for the customers that a Merchant Client wishes to reach. Our platform is also designed and built to encourage Users to return and obtain new Users, each of which is a potential customer for our Merchant Clients.

We believe we are different from other companies in that our plan is to sign up merchants first and build our user base utilizing their customers. Many companies utilize a different strategy of building up a user base and then signing up paying merchants and other clients to access that user base.

The current version of our platform is called “Moxian+” which consists of our user mobile application (“App”) called the Moxian+ User App and a separate App for our Merchant Clients called the Moxian+ Business App. Both versions of the App are currently available in the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. There is no charge to download either App. We also have a website that can be accessed at www.moxian.com where either App can also be downloaded.

Moxian principally operates in mainland China with its headquarters in Shenzhen, China. We launched Moxian version 1.0 which only consists of the User component App in Malaysia in June 2013 and subsequently in China in July 2014. During 2014 to 2015, we developed the Apps as part of “Moxian+,” the successor to Moxian version 1.0 which was officially launched in October 2015 in China only. In December 2015, we opened our Beijing office. We are currently operating in both Shenzhen and Beijing.

We are currently in the process of expanding our operations to Shanghai and Guangzhou.

As of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, our accumulated deficits were $20,557,155 and $11,174,812, respectively. Our stockholders’ equity was $4,452,325 and $5,505,091, respectively. We have so far generated $5,703 and $18,645 in revenue in the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Our losses have principally been attributed to selling, general administrative, advertising agency fee, impairment charge on intangible assets and research and development expenses.

Recent Developments

As of December 16, 2015, we entered into a Second Amendment Agreement to the Subscription Agreement (the “Second Amendment Agreement”) with Xinhua Huifeng Investment Center Co., Ltd. (Beijing) (“Xinhua”) to amend the Subscription Agreement entered by the Company and Xinhua (“Xinhua Subscription Agreement”) dated as of June 4, 2015, which was subsequently amended on August 13, 2015. Under the Xinhua Subscription Agreement, the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 4,095,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a per share price of $2.00 for gross proceeds of $8,190,000 (approximately RMB50,000,000) (the “Purchase Price”) and to issue to Xinhua for no additional consideration a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase in the aggregate of

25

16,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share, exercisable on or prior to July 31, 2015 (the “Expiration Date”)(such transaction, the “Transaction”).

Under the Second Amendment Agreement, the Closing Date of the Transaction was extended to December 31, 2015 and the Expiration Date of the Warrant was extended to December 31, 2015. As of the date of this prospectus, we received $8,190,020 of the Purchase Price, and in turn, issued 4,095,010 shares of common stock to Xinhua. No warrants were exercised by Xinhua and have expired.

On May 24, 2016 the Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-2 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split was effective on June 20, 2016 (the “Effective Date”). Simultaneously to the Reverse Stock Split, the number of shares of the Company’s authorized Common Stock was correspondingly reduced from 500,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares. On July 11, 2016, the Company received FINRA’s approval of the Reverse Stock Split. The Company has retroactively restated all shares and per share data for all the periods presented.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2015

Revenues

The Company had revenues of $5,703 in the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $18,187 being generated in the three months ended June 30, 2015. The Company started to develop the China market in 2015 and therefore no significant revenue has been generated.

The decrease in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015 was due to promoting and selling its Moxian version 1.0 to local merchants in Malaysia and China. Moxian version 1.0 was then retired in September 2015. In the beginning of 2016, the Company commenced promoting the new version in the China market; hence there was a decrease in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Operating Expenses

Selling and general administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were $1,139,803 and $1,241,022, respectively. The expenses consisted of filing fees, professional fees, payroll and benefits and other general expenses. The selling and general administrative expense incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was consistent from the same period of last year.

The research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were $519,807 and $420,638, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses was because the Company hired more software developers in the three months ended June 30, 2016 for customizing the Moxian + applications in mainland China, which resulted in the increase in the research and development expense.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months period ended June 30, 2016 was $455,753, representing a significant increase from the depreciation and amortization expense of $238,048 incurred in the same period of last year. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense in the three months ended June 30, 2016 was due to more amortization expense on the software system capitalized in the beginning of fiscal 2016.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded $1,264,700 impairment charge on intangible asset- IP rights based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the estimated fair value of the assets. There was no such impairment charge for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

The Company incurred an advertising agency fee of $462,430 with Xinhua New Media Culture Communication Co.,Ltd (“Xinhua”) for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The Company entered into an exclusive advertising agency agreement with Xinhua. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company, as an exclusive agent, is authorized to operate and sell advertisements on Xinhua’s mobile application in the gaming channel. The agreement expires on December 31, 2020. The Company believes the exclusive agency agreement with Xinhua will promote the Company’s Moxian mobile application version 2.0 in China market and generate more revenue on a long term basis.

26

We expect that our operating expenses will continue to increase as we incur additional costs to support the growth of our business.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $3,852,653 and $1,916,140, respectively. The increase in net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2016 comparing to three months ended June 30, 2015 was mainly due to an increase in research and development, depreciation and amortization, intangible impairment charge and adverting agency fee expense as explained above.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2016 compared with the nine months ended June 30, 2015

Revenues

The Company had revenues of $18,645 in the nine months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $86,353 generated in the nine months ended June 30, 2015. The Company started to launch its new version of the APP in the China market in the beginning of 2016 and therefore no significant revenue has been generated.

Operating Expenses

Selling and general administrative expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were $3,834,542 and $2,661,793, respectively. The expenses consisted of filing fees, professional fees, payroll and benefits and other general expenses. During the nine months ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred additional approximately $0.4 million in marketing and consulting expenses to pursue a public offering during the nine months ended June 30, 2016, while the Company did not incur similar expenses for the same period of last year. The remaining increase was due to $0.3 million increase in professional and consulting fee, $0.1 million in salary and wages and $0.3 million increase in rental and property maintenance fee and $0.1 million increase in marketing and advertising expense. The Company is in the process of expanding in the China market, therefore the related operating expenses increased accordingly.

The research and development expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were $2,034,103 and $936,624, respectively. The increase in the research and development expense was mainly due to the fact that more software developers were hired during the first half of fiscal 2016.

The Company incurred advertising agency fee of $462,430 with Xinhua for the nine months ended June 30, 2016. The Company entered into an exclusive advertising agency agreement with Xinhua. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company, as an exclusive agent, is authorized to operate and sell advertisement on Xinhua’s mobile application in the gaming channel. The agreement expires on December 31, 2020. The Company believes the exclusive agency agreement with Xinhua will promote the Company’s Moxian mobile application version 2.0 in China market and generate more revenue on long term basis.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 was $1,356,306; it represents significant increase from $494,793 in the same period of last year. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense in the nine months ended June 30, 2016 was due to more amortization expense on the software system capitalized in the beginning of fiscal 2016.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded $1,264,700 impairment charge on intangible asset-IP right based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the estimated fair value of the assets. There was no such impairment charge for the nine months ended June 30, 2015.

We expect that our operating expenses will continue to increase as we incur additional costs to support the growth of our business.

The increase in net loss for the year ended September 30, 2015 compared to the year ended September 30, 2014 was due to an increase in general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

As of June 30, 2016, we had working capital deficit of approximately $3.1 million consisting of cash on hand of $96,587 as compared to working capital deficit of approximately $4.1 million and cash on hand of approximately $2.4 million as of September 30, 2015.

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 was approximately $5.9 million as compared to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $3.6 million or the nine months ended June 30, 2015.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 was around $0.5 million as compared to approximately $1.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2015.

We will require additional capital to continue to operate our business, and to further expand our business. Sources of additional capital may come through various financing transactions or arrangements with third parties and may include equity or debt financing, bank loans or revolving credit facilities. We may not be successful in

28

locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all, and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means. Our inability to raise additional funds when required may have a negative impact on our operations, business development and financial results.

Financing

On June 4, 2015, the Company and Beijing Xinhua Huifeng Equity Investment Center (Limited Partnership) (“Xinhua”) entered into a subscription agreement, pursuant to which, the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 4,095,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a per share price of $2.00 for gross proceeds of $8,190,000 (approximately RMB50,000,000) (the “Purchase Price”) and to issue to Xinhua for no additional consideration a warrant to purchase in the aggregate of 16,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share, exercisable on or prior to July 31, 2015.

Under the subscription agreement, we are required to issue an additional number of shares of our common stock to Xinhua, equal to 50% of the aggregate number of shares issued upon exercise of the warrant by Xinhua as of September 30, 2016, if we fail to contract with 25,000 new paying merchants by September 30, 2016. This “make good” provision will be available only if Xinhua has exercised the warrant and acquired more than 16,000,000 shares of common stock. Further, we are required to issue 2,000,000 shares of common stock to Xinhua, for no additional consideration, if we fail to publish its full working version of the Moxian mobile application version 2.0 by September 30, 2015, or if we fail to uplist to a national securities exchange in the U.S. by June 30, 2017.

Subsequent to the initial subscription agreement, the closing date of the transaction, as well as the expiration date of the warrant, were both first extended to September 30, 2015, and then further extended to December 31, 2015. We received $8,190,020 of the Purchase Price, and in turn, issued 4,095,010 shares of common stock to Xinhua. The warrants were not exercised and have expired.

29

Foreign Operations

Substantially all of our business operations are conducted in Mainland China. Accordingly, our results of operations, financial condition and prospects are subject to a significant degree to economic, political and legal developments in the PRC. We also have operations in Hong Kong. Operating in foreign countries involves substantial risk. For example, our business activities subject us to a number of Chinese laws and regulations, such as anti-corruption laws, tax laws, foreign exchange controls and cash repatriation restrictions, data privacy and security requirements, labor laws, intellectual property laws, privacy laws, and anti-competition regulations, which have uncertainties. Any failure to comply with the PRC laws and regulations could subject us to fines and penalties, make it more difficult or impossible to do business in China and harm our reputation.

Operating in foreign countries also subjects us to risk from currency fluctuations. Our primary exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates relates to non-U.S. dollar denominated sales and operating expenses. The weakening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar adversely affects the U.S. dollar value of our foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings. This could either reduce the U.S. dollar value of our prices or, if we raise prices in the local currency, it could reduce the overall demand for our offerings. Either could adversely affect our revenue. Conversely, a rise in the price of local currencies relative to the U.S. dollar could adversely impact our profitability because it would increase our costs denominated in those currencies, thus adversely affecting gross margins.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our significant estimates and assumptions include depreciation and the fair value of our stock, stock-based compensation, debt discount and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Reference is made to the “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in Note 2 to the Financial Statements included in this Report for information related to new accounting pronouncement, none of which had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, and the future adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements, which we do not expect will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

OUR HISTORY AND CORPORATE STRUCTURE

The following diagram illustrates our corporate structure as of the date of this prospectus.

Moxian was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 12, 2010 under the name SECURE NetCheckIn Inc. On July 29, 2015, we changed our name to Moxian, Inc. Previously we were engaged in the business of offering a cloud-based scheduling and notification product targeted to urgent care facilities and medical offices to increase the satisfaction of patients in the scheduling and timing of appointments.

On February 21, 2014, through Moxian CN Samoa, we acquired Moxian BVI, together with its subsidiaries, Moxian HK, Moxian Shenzhen, and Moxian Malaysia, from Rebel Group, Inc. (“REBL,” formerly known as Moxian Group Holdings, Inc.) Moxian CN Group was incorporated by the Company under the laws of Independent State of Samoa on February 17, 2014.

Moxian BVI is a British Virgin Islands company that was incorporated on July 3, 2012. Moxian HK was incorporated on January 18, 2013, under the laws of Hong Kong. Moxian HK is currently engaged in the business of online social media and plans to launch its business in Hong Kong.

Moxian Shenzhen was incorporated on April 8, 2013 in China and is engaged in the business of internet technology, computer software, and commercial information consulting. Moxian Malaysia was incorporated on March 1, 2013 and conducts its business in the IT Services and Media Advertising industries.

Prior to the acquisition of Moxian BVI, on February 19, 2014, Moxian HK and Moxian Shenzhen entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Moxian IP Samoa, a wholly-owned subsidiary of REBL at the time, whereby Moxian HK and Moxian Shenzhen assigned and transferred to Moxian IP Samoa, all of the intellectual property rights relating to the operation, use and marketing of the Moxian Platform, including all of the relevant trademarks, patents and copyrights, in consideration of $1,000,000. Subsequently on January 30, 2015, we acquired from REBL 100% of the equity interests of Moxian IP Samoa for $6,782,000. As a result of the transaction, Moxian IP Samoa became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Moxian IP Samoa was incorporated on February 17, 2014 in the Independent State of Samoa.

31

On July 15, 2014, Moxian Shenzhen entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Moyi, which provide Moxian Shenzhen with control over Moyi’s business affairs and economic interest, as described in more details below. Moyi was incorporated on July 19, 2013 in China.

On December 10, 2015, Moxian Shenzhen incorporated Moxian Beijing and Moxian Beijing became the wholly-owned subsidiary of Moxian Shenzhen.

Contractual Arrangements with Moyi and its Shareholders

Due to PRC legal restrictions on foreign ownership and investment in, among other areas, Internet information services, which include online advertisement and e-commerce, we, similar to other entities with foreign-incorporated holding company structures operating in our industry in China, operate our businesses in which foreign investment is restricted or prohibited in the PRC through a wholly-foreign owned enterprise and a variable interest entity. The variable interest entity, Moyi, which is incorporated in the PRC and 100% owned by two PRC nationals, Zhang Guohui and Guan Fensheng (“Moyi Shareholders”), holds the required Internet Content Provider license, or ICP license and operate our businesses in China.

We have entered into certain contractual arrangements, as described in more detail below, which collectively enable us to exercise effective control over the variable interest entity and realize substantially all of the economic risks and benefits arising from, the variable interest entity. As a result, we include the financial results of the variable interest entity in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP as if it was our wholly-owned subsidiary.

The following is a summary of the contractual arrangements that provide us with effective control of our variable interest entity and that enable us to receive substantially all of the economic benefits from its operation.

Under the agreement, Moxian Shenzhen has an option to purchase from Moyi any or all of its assets, at the lowest price permitted under the PRC laws. The initial term of this agreement is 10 years, which may be renewed by Moxian Shenzhen in its sole discretion.

Equity Pledge Agreement . Pursuant to the Share Pledge Agreement dated July 15, 2014, among Moxian Shenzhen and Moyi Shareholders, Moyi Shareholders pledged all of their equity interests in Moyi to Moxian

32

Shenzhen, to secure the performance of obligations by themselves and Moyi under the agreements described above.

BUSINESS

Overview

We are in the O2O (“Online-to-Offline”) business. With respect to our business, O2O means providing an online platform for small and medium sized enterprises (“SMEs”) with “brick and mortar” businesses that allows them to conduct business, interact with existing customers and obtain new customers online. We refer to our customers as “Merchant Clients” and we use the term “Users,” to refer to those existing and potential customers of our Merchant Clients who use our mobile application and platform. Through the features, products and services offered on our platform, we seek to create interactions between Users and Merchant Clients, which will allow Merchant Clients to study consumer behavior. Our platform has five main components that allow Merchant Clients to conduct targeted advertising campaigns and promotions, which we believe are effective because they are geared to the customers that a Merchant Client wishes to attract. Our platform is also designed and built to encourage Users to return and refer new Users, each of which is a potential customer for our Merchant Clients.

The current version of our platform is called “Moxian+,” which consists of our user mobile application (the “App” and collectively, the “Apps”) called the Moxian+ User App and a separate App for our Merchant Clients called the Moxian+ Business App. Both versions of the App are currently available in the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. There is no charge to download either App. We also have a website that can be accessed at www.moxian.com where either App can also be downloaded.

Moxian principally operates in mainland China with its headquarters in Shenzhen, China. We launched Moxian version 1.0 in Malaysia in June 2013 and subsequently in China in July 2014. In 2015, we developed the Apps as part of “Moxian+,” the successor to Moxian version 1.0 which was officially launched in October 2015 in China.

Market Opportunities

China currently has more than 850 million users actively utilizing mobile applications ( http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2015-11/10/c_134802668.htm ). In 2014, the China Internet Network Information Center reported that there were approximately 618 million internet users throughout Asian countries, representing a penetration rate of approximately 46 percent. Among these internet users, over 90 percent have a social media account. For comparison, just 67 percent of U.S. internet users engage in social media. However, the opportunity in China extends beyond the ability to reach a large target audience. According to the Data Center of China Internet, 38 percent of users claim they are more likely to buy items recommended by other social media users (Statistical Report on Internet Development in China by China Internet Network Information Center, 2014).

O2O platforms serve to substantially enhance marketing and commerce performance for brands and retailers compared to traditional digital marketing approaches. O2O refers to any and all activities that originate online and eventually result in a shopper going to a physical store. Forrester Research predicts that by 2016, more than half of the $3.5 trillion spent in offline US retail will be influenced by the websites (Forrester’s US Cross-Channel Retail Forecast, 2011 To 2016).

According to official statistics, China’s O2O market reached 98.7 billion yuan (approximately US$9 billion) in 2011. Industry analysts anticipate that the China O2O market will quadruple to 418 billion yuan (approximately US$67 billion) in 2016 ( http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/chinas-o2o-market-the-path-to-success-is-not-uni-directional-201906281.html ). Moxian believes it will be able to capture a share in this market by offering its platform to merchants. Our platform allows users to be aware of their interested merchants’ on-going promotions so as to attract them to make purchases offline.

Services for Merchant Clients

Social Customer Relationship Management (‘SCRM’)

Our SCRM is built to allow Merchant Clients to input their customer details into the system. The SCRM can then follow the customers’ activities and allows Merchant Clients to send promotional messages and advertisements to Users through our platform.

Targeted Marketing

Our Targeted Marketing tool is offered to paid Merchant Clients only. Its feature allows our Merchant Clients to contact their targeted Users directly by sending messages, promotions and vouchers to a specific range of customers, such as customers who have visited their store in the past week or month or customers who have upcoming birthdays. Merchant Clients can send Users discounts or messages and target people by age, gender or other criteria. We also provide targeted marketing to assist Merchant Clients to reach customers more efficiently. For example, we can generate a list of customers who have browsed a Merchant Client’s products over the past two months more than once, but not made a purchase, and a discount can be offered to them for certain products. In addition, Merchants Clients can find Users near their physical shops (within 1,000 meters) and invite them to their stores.

Analytics Reports

Detailed reports are provided to paid Merchant Clients. These reports allow Merchant Clients to see the number of followers they have, the number of points redeemed and rewarded, and the number of vouchers purchased or redeemed offline. Merchant Clients with a free account receive only basic analytics, such as how many MO-points have been distributed. However, for paid accounts, Merchant Clients receive more detailed analytics regarding the buying patterns and likes of current and potential customers.

Merchant Clients can provide rewards to customers by including their customer’s mobile number. Customers who have installed the Moxian+ User App can then receive rewards on the platform in the form of MO-Points or discount vouchers. Customers who do not have the Moxian+ User App installed will receive a text message informing them of their rewards and that they can download the Moxian+ User App to redeem them.

Event Hosting

Merchant Clients can host events through the platform and invite Users within a selected range, such as by proximity, common interest, or gender to participate in the event.

Vouchers and Product Listings

Merchant Clients can customize coupons or vouchers on the platform, daily or with whatever frequency they wish, or list available products.

Multiple store features

For those Merchant Clients which have multiple stores in different locations, our platform allows different stores to access to the same account. Moreover, different stores may be differentiated for which information they can access to by entering their location in the app.

Webpage to Create an Online Shop

We provide a Do it Yourself Webpage to create an online shop. The Merchant Client can include its logo, its product/service category, telephone number, and other information that is relevant to the business. The Shop will appear in the Moxian+ User App. A Merchant Client can manage its own shop by adding more information, posting events, offers, and discounts.

36

Our Platform

There are five components to our Moxian+ platform, which is the backend of our application. The Moxian+ platform includes the social media engine, the e-commerce engine, the rewards engine, the gamification engine, and the analytical engine.

Social Media Engine

Our data use policy governs the use of information that users have chosen to share and present. We also design our products to include robust safety tools. These tools are coupled with partnerships with online safety experts to offer protection for all users, particularly teenagers. We work with law enforcement to help promote the safety of our users as required by law. To the extent permissible, and with prior consent from the Users, we analyze User’s information to understand the Users behavior.

E-Commerce

Utilizing our e-commerce features, Merchant Clients are able to conduct business by posting products, offering coupons and sales as well as creating events and blogs through the Moxian+ Business App. On the other hand, Users can shop at the Merchant Clients’ shops like at any other e-commerce platform by ordering online and receiving the products by express delivery.

Rewards

Users are rewarded with MO-Points and MO-Coins. MO-Points are points granted to Users when they shop at Merchant Clients, play games on our platform or engage in other activities sponsored by the Merchant Clients. MO-Points can be redeemed at the Merchant Clients’ shops as determined by the Merchant Clients, or can be redeemed for MO-Coins which are virtual currency and can be used at any Merchant Client’s stores. MO-Coins are backed by cash paid by Merchant Clients which is held in an escrow account. They can be redeemed for cash, or used to purchase more MO-Points. The ratio of MO-Coins to actual currency is currently set at 1:1. A Merchant Client who pays for MO-Coins can also redeem them for cash.

MO-Points and MO-Coins are traceable and trackable on the Moxian+ platform through designated serial number so that we can see exactly what Users do with them and use that information to assist our Merchant Clients to determine customer behaviors.

From time to time, we may also give away MO-Points or MO-Coins as a promotion to increase our User base. We also plan to have our own “shopping mall” with merchandise that Users can purchase with MO-Points and MO-Coins in the upcoming year.

Gamification

Together with outside contractors we develop games for Users to earn MO-Points and MO-Coins and other rewards which may be specific to a certain Merchant Client. Users can use MO-Points to play games offered in our game center.

Analytical Engine

Moxian provides analytics to each Merchant Client for the consumer behavior Moxian learns through its platform to assist our Merchant Clients to better design their promotions and reach their target audience. We analyze consumer behavior through ‘likes’ of posts by certain merchants or the places they tend to “check-in” to, to determine their usual hang out.

News Center

On “Hot Topics,” the most popular topics and related blogs, news, and journals being discussed among Users will be displayed, so that Users can stay informed in real time. “Hot Events” provide information about events to be hosted by Merchant Clients, and they are categorized by different interests. In addition, Users will be able to see the list of other nearby Users, with information that a User may be willing to have displayed.

37

Advertisements

On January 20, 2016, the Company entered into an Exclusive Partnership Agreement with Xinhua New Media Culture Communication Co. Ltd. (“Xinhua New Media”), pursuant to which the Company is engaged as the reseller of the advertisement space for the Xinhua New Media App.

The Company plans to expand its sales force to include an advertisement sales team to promote the Xinhua New Media App advertisement space. In addition to selling the Xinhua Advertisement space, the sales team will also be selling our own advertisement space on Moxian platform.

We believe that we will benefit from the partnership with Xinhua New Media in two ways:

Firstly, Traction and growth of users. Users of the Xinhua New Media App will be rewarded with Mo-Coins and Mo-Points when engaging in interactive activities, such as clicking on any advertisements, within the platform. These Xinhua New Media App users are expected to then log into Moxian Platform to redeem their Mo-Coins and Mo-Points. This will allow us to grow our user base.

Secondly, Cross-Selling. We will bundle our Moxian+ Merchant App with the advertisement space on the Xinhua New Media App and offer a package deal to merchants. The package deals will only be offered to large-scale customers who have chain-shops based in China.

In addition, we are also the exclusive operator and partner for the gaming platform included in the Xinhua New Media App. Moxian charges a fee for operating the gaming platform, which generate revenues from advertisement, sponsorship and profit sharing arrangements with gaming companies.

Transaction Fees

All transactions carried across our platform is done through our virtual currency. We charge a fee for any transaction carried on our platform within a range of 3% to 5% of the transaction price.

White-Label Solution

We offer large scale merchants the option to “white label” our Moxian+ Merchant and User App. We charge a yearly fee to the merchants. White-label merchants sell Moxian+ Merchant and User App in their own names. We also offer customization of Moxian+ Merchant and User App at the request of merchants for an additional fee.

Marketing Strategy

Our success is dependent upon signing up paid Merchant Clients. The Merchant Clients, in turn, build up our base of Users by encouraging their customers to download our User App. Merchant Clients can offer MO-Points and MO-Coins to attract people to download our App. In order to attract more Merchant Clients, we also need to have an established base of Users.

We initially marketed only to merchants in Shenzhen, China where we launched Moxian version 1.0. Although this was a beta test that ran for three months from June 2015 to August 2015, 30,000 merchants subscribed for our Moxian version 1.0 services. We are currently targeting these same merchants for Moxian+ and expanding the Userbase.

We have a sales force of 20 people based in Shenzhen, China. By the end of 2016, we intend to open an additional sales office in Shanghai and Guangzhou and hire a sales force of 200 sales people in four operating cities.

We are currently scheduling seasonal sales events in Shenzhen to promote our products and services to our initial Merchant Clients and give away MO-Points and MO-Coins.

During 2016, we also plan to utilize third party distributors with an existing base of merchants to market our products.

38

Competition

Although major global social network platform providers have the advantage of an existing user base, we believe Moxian has a unique social business model and social media features that enable us to stand out among the competition. Other major social networking platforms usually focus on personal photo sharing, video sharing, chat features, group chatting, micro-blogging, following groups’ online activities, rating and commenting on products and services. What we believe makes Moxian stand out is that our Merchant Clients have: (i) their own promotion pages, (ii) local event programs for their customer Users, (iii) location-based promotion information, (iv) mobile chat applications, (v) free prizes for the Users, (vi) advertising on Moxian’s social pages, (vii) a social customer relationship management systems, (viii) a loyalty program using MO-Points and MO-Coins, and (ix) customized online games to promote merchants’ brands and group sales promotions. Therefore, by establishing our Merchant Client base first, we believe that our user acquisition will be easier to build up.

In China, we face stiff competition. Our major competitor in China is Dazong Dianping (“Dianping”). Dianping targets merchant clients as we do. In addition, Dianping also offers merchants a customized page, location based promotion information and a relationship management tool. The other principal competitors are Nuomi, Meituan and WeChat.

However, we believe Moxian+ is superior for SMEs because our SCRM offers Merchant Clients the ability to interact with their customers via instant messenger. In addition, we offer virtual currencies that can entice and encourage repeated visits by the Users.

Our Technology

Technology is the key to our success in achieving efficiency for our business, improving the user experience and enabling innovation. We employ a team of over 80 engineering and data analytics personnel to build our technology platform and develop new online and mobile products. Key components of our technology include:

Data Science

Our data science technology serves various types of data-intensive computational needs, including deep learning, high-volume batch processing and multi-variable and multi-dimensional real-time analytics. Data mining and transaction, payment and behavioral data science capabilities are used extensively in numerous applications such as search and online marketing.

Security

We take various steps to ensure the security of the Moxian+ platform and the personal information of users of the platform, as well as the ecommerce transactions conducted on the platform. We conduct daily testing and have engaged an outside security consultant to conduct further testing and make recommendations as to additional security measures.

Research and Development

There are 60 people in the Research & Development department, which is responsible for developing and improving the mobile application, Moxian platform and customer experience in using our products. During the past two fiscal years, we have spent approximately $1,735,704 in 2014 and $4,355,052 in 2015, respectively on research and development.

Employees

We have a total of 160 employees, of which we have 21 employees in the product team, 60 employees in the research and development team, 26 employees in the sales and marketing department, 17 employees in the customer and technical support team and the remaining in the administrative department. We consider our employee relations to be good, and to date have not experienced a work stoppage due to a labor dispute.

REGULATIONS

This section sets forth a summary of the significant regulations or requirements that affect our business activities in Mainland China and Hong Kong.

PRC Law

Overview

Extensive regulatory schemes governing the operation of business with respect to telecommunications and Internet information services were published by the Chinese government. Besides the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, which regulates radio and television stations in China (“SARFT”), the various services of the PRC Internet industry are also regulated by various other governmental authorities, such as the State Council Information Office (“SCIO”), the General Administration for Press and Publication (“GAPP”), and the Ministry of Public Security.

Among all the regulations, the Telecommunications Regulations of the People’s Republic of China, promulgated on September 25, 2000, is the primary governing law. The Telecom Regulations set out the general framework under which domestic Chinese companies such as the Company’s subsidiaries and VIE may engage in various types of telecommunications services in the PRC. They reiterate the long-standing principle that telecommunications service providers need to obtain operating licenses as a mandatory precondition to begin operation.

The Chinese government restricts foreign investment in Internet-related businesses. Accordingly, we operate our Internet-related businesses in China through Moyi, our VIE operating in Shenzhen, China.

Internet Information Services

The governing law for Internet information service is the Measures for the Administration of Internet Information Services, or the Internet Content Provider (“ICP”) Measures, which went into effect on September 25, 2000. Under the ICP Measures, any entity that provides information to online Internet users must obtain an operating license from Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (“MIIT”) or its local branch at the provincial level in accordance with the Telecom Regulations described above. The ICP Measures further stipulate that entities providing online information services in areas of news, publishing, education, medicine, health, pharmaceuticals and medical equipment must obtain permission from responsible national authorities prior to applying for an operating license from MIIT or its local branch at the provincial or municipal level. Moreover, ICPs must display their operating license numbers in a conspicuous location on their websites. ICPs must police their websites to remove categories of harmful content that are broadly defined.

Currently, Moyi holds an ICP license which was issued on January 22, 2014.

Online Privacy

Chinese law does not prohibit internet service providers from collecting and analyzing personal information from their users if the users agree to do so. The PRC government, however, has the power and authority to order internet service providers to submit personal information of an internet user if such user posts any prohibited content or engages in illegal activities on the internet.

Under the Several Provisions on Regulating the Market Order of Internet Information Services (“Order”) promulgated by the MIIT which became effective on March 15, 2012, internet service providers may not, without a user’s consent, collect the user’ personal information that can be used, alone or in combination with other information, to identify the user, and may not provide any user’s personal information to third parties without the prior consent of the user. Internet service providers may only collect users’ personal information necessary to provide their services and must expressly inform the users of the method, scope and purpose of the collection and processing of such information. They are also required to ensure the proper security of users’ personal information, and take immediate remedial measures if such information is suspected to have been inappropriately disclosed. When a User registers to our application, we require our users to accept a user agreement whereby they agree

43

to provide certain personal information to us. We will take other measures as necessary to comply with these provisions.

ICPs are also required to establish and publish their rules relating to personal information collection or use, keep any collected information strictly confidential, and take technological and other measures to maintain the security of such information. ICP operators are required to cease any collection or use of the user personal information, and de-register the relevant user account, when a given user stops using the relevant Internet service. ICP operators are further prohibited from divulging, distorting or destroying any such personal information, or selling or providing such information unlawfully to other parties. In addition, if an ICP operator appoints an agent to undertake any marketing and technical services that involve the collection or use of personal information, the ICP operator is still required to supervise and manage the protection of the information. As to penalties, in very broad terms, the Order states that violators may face warnings, fines, and disclosure to the public and, in most severe cases, criminal liability.

Currently, the collection of the information from the Users is agreed to by the Users when they sign up. In addition, any data mining or analyzing of the user data is for internal use only. We also take steps to ensure that the data collected is stored securely.

Internet Publishing

On June 27, 2002, SPPA and MIIT jointly released the Provisional Rules for the Administration of Internet Publishing, or the Internet Publishing Rules, which define “Internet publications” as works that are either selected or edited to be published on the Internet or transmitted to end-users through the Internet for the purposes of browsing, reading, using or downloading by the general public. Such works mainly include content or articles formally published by press media such as: (i) books, newspapers, periodicals, audio-visual products and electronic publications; and (ii) literature, art and articles on natural science, social science, engineering and other topics that have been edited.

According to the Internet Publishing Rules, web portals like Moxian are required to apply to and register with GAPP before distributing Internet publications. Therefore, the Company will apply for a license by December 31, 2015 to comply with the Internet Publishing Rules.

Moxian will be applying this license by the end of 2016.

Online Games

On May 10, 2003, the Provisional Regulations for the Administration of Online Culture were issued by the Ministry of Culture (“MCPRC”) and went into effect on July 1, 2003 (these regulations were revised by MCPRC on July 1, 2004). According to these regulations, commercial entities are required to apply to the relevant local branch of MCPRC for an Online Culture Operating Permit to engage in online games services.

On July 27, 2004, GAPP and the State Copyright Bureau jointly promulgated the Notice on Carrying out the Decision from the State Council Regarding the Approval of Electronic and Online Games Publications, or the Games Notice. According to the Games Notice, the Internet Publications Distribution License is required for publishing online games.

Currently, Moxian holds the appropriate license which was issued by the Administration of Online Culture on November 25, 2015.

Encryption Software

On October 7, 1999, the State Encryption Administration Commission published the Regulations for the Administration of Commercial Encryption, followed by the first Notice of the General Office of the State Encryption Administration Commission on November 8, 1999. Both of these regulations address the use of software in China with encryption functions. According to these regulations, purchase of encryption products must be reported. Violation of the encryption regulations may result in a warning, penalty, confiscation of the encryption product, or criminal liabilities.

44

On March 18, 2000, the Office of the State Commission for the Administration of Cryptography issued a public announcement regarding the implementation of those regulations. The announcement clarifies the encryption regulations as below:

         Only specialized hardware and software, the core functions of which are encryption and decoding, fall within the administrative scope of the regulations as “encryption products and equipment containing encryption technology.” Other products such as wireless telephones, Windows software and browsers do not fall within the scope of this regulation.

         The PRC government has already begun to study the laws in question in accordance with WTO rules and China’s external commitments, and will make revisions wherever necessary. The Administrative Regulations on Commercial Encryption will also be subject to such scrutiny and revision.

In late 2005, the Administration Bureau of Cryptography further issued a series of regulations to regulate the development, production and sales of commercial encryption products, which all came into effect on January 1, 2006.

We believe that the Company is in proper compliance with these requirements.

Foreign Exchange

Foreign exchange regulation in China is primarily governed by the following regulations:

         Foreign Exchange Administration Rules, or the Exchange Rules of the PRC, promulgated by the State Council on January 29, 1996, which was amended on January 14, 1997 and on August 5, 2008 respectively; and

         Administration Rules of the Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange, or the Administration Rules promulgated by China People’s Bank on June 20, 1996.

Under the Exchange Rules of the PRC, Renminbi is convertible for current account items, including the distribution of dividends, interest payments, trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions. As for capital account items, such as direct investments, loans, security investments and the repatriation of investment returns, however, the reservation or conversion of foreign currency incomes is still subject to the approval of SAFE or its competent local branches; while for the foreign currency payments for capital account items, the SAFE approval is not necessary for the conversion of Renminbi except as otherwise explicitly provided by laws and regulations.

Under the Administration Rules, enterprises may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies at banks that are authorized to conduct foreign exchange business after the enterprise provides valid commercial documents and relevant supporting documents and, in the case of certain capital account transactions, after obtaining approval from SAFE or its competent local branches. Capital investments by enterprises outside of China are also subject to limitations, which include approvals by the SAFE and the National Development and Reform Commission, or their respective competent local branches.

On October 21, 2005, SAFE issued the Circular on Several Issues concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Residents to Engage in Financing and in Return Investments via Overseas Special Purpose Companies, or Circular No. 75, which went into effect on November 1, 2005. Circular No. 75 provides that if PRC residents use assets or equity interests in their PRC entities to establish offshore companies or inject assets or equity interests of their PRC entities into offshore companies for the purpose of overseas capital financing, they must register with local SAFE branches with respect to their investments in offshore companies. Circular No. 75 also requires PRC residents to file changes to their registration if their special purpose companies undergo material events such as capital increase or decrease, share transfer or exchange, merger or division, long-term equity or debt investments, provision of guaranty to a foreign party, etc. SAFE further promulgated the Implementing Rules for Circular No. 75, or Circular No. 106, clarifying and supplementing the concrete operating rules that shall be followed during the implementation and application of Circular No. 75.

On August 29, 2008, the Notice of the General Affairs Department of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on the Relevant Operating Issues concerning the Improvement of the Administration of Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-funded Enterprises, or the Improvement Notice, was promulgated by SAFE. Pursuant to the Improvement Notice, the foreign currency capital of Foreign Investment Entities, after

45

being converted to Renminbi, can only be used for doing business within the business scope approved by relevant governmental authorities, and shall not be used for domestic equity investment except as otherwise explicitly provided by laws and regulations.

On July 14, 2014, SAFE issued a new Circular on Several Issues concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Residents to Engage in Investing and Financing and in Return Investments via Overseas Special Purpose Companies, or Circular No. 37, which enlarges the definition of SPV comparing to the Circular No. 75, which can invest in China under Circular No. 37.

Service and Consultancy Agreement with REBL

On March 1, 2014, 8i Capital Limited (“8i Capital”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, of which our CEO, James Mengdong Tan is a sole member and director, entered into a service and consultancy agreement (the “Consultancy Agreement”) with SCA Capital Limited, a subsidiary of Rebel Group, Inc. (REBL). Under the Consultancy Agreement, 8i Capital agreed to provide corporate service to SCA Capital to assist it with the reverse merger acquisition of a company listed on the OTCQB (“Listco”) and general business advisory service. In consideration, SCA Capital agreed to (i) pay $500,000 in total to 8i Capital, (ii) issue 5% of total shares of the Listco on a fully-diluted basis after the reverse acquisition and (iii) pay a retainer fee of $240,000 to 8i Capital per year. Mr. Tan is deemed as a promoter as defined under Rule 405 of Regulation C promulgated under the Securities Act.

In February 2013, Mr. Tan assisted in the negotiation of the acquisition of approximately 77.26% of the then outstanding shares of REBL by three purchasers from the former shareholder of REBL. Mr. Tan also later offered consulting and business advisory services to REBL in connection with REBL’s reverse acquisition of Moxian BVI and its operating business in April 2013. In February 2014, Mr. Tan assisted in structuring the sale of all of the equity interests of Moxian BVI, a former direct subsidiary of REBL, and the license of the intellectual property rights of REBL to the Company pursuant to a License and Acquisition Agreement.

On February 21, 2014, we acquired Moxian BVI, together with its subsidiaries, Moxian HK, Moxian Shenzhen, and Moxian Malaysia through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Moxian CN Samoa from REBL, by entering into a License and Acquisition Agreement (the “License and Acquisition Agreement”) in consideration of $1,000,000 (“Moxian BVI Purchase Price”). As a result, Moxian BVI, together with its subsidiaries, Moxian HK, Moxian Shenzhen, and Moxian Malaysia, became our subsidiaries. Under the License and Acquisition Agreement, REBL also agreed to grant us the exclusive right to use REBL’s intellectual property rights (collectively, the “IP Rights”) in Mainland China, Malaysia, and other countries and regions where REBL conducts its business (the “Licensed Territory”), and the exclusive right to solicit, promote, distribute and sell REBL products and services in the Licensed Territory for five years (the “License,”) and in consideration of such License, the Company agreed to pay to REBL (i) $1,000,000 as license maintenance royalty each year commencing on the first anniversary of the date of the License Agreement; and (ii) 3% of the gross profits resulting from the distribution and sale of the products and services on behalf of the Company as an earned royalty.

In January 2015, Mr. Tan, through 8i Capital, assisted with the share exchange transaction among REBL, Rebel Holdings Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of REBL (“Rebel FC”) and the Rebel FC Stockholder.

On January 30, 2015, the Company entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement (the “Equity Transfer Agreement,” such transaction, the “Equity Transfer Transaction”) with REBL, to acquire from REBL 100% of the equity interests of Moxian IP Samoa for $6,782,000 (the “Moxian IP Samoa Purchase Price”). Moxian IP Samoa owns all the intellectual property rights relating to the operation, use and marketing of the Moxian Platform, including all of the trademarks, patents and copyrights that are used in the Company’s business. As a result of the Equity Transfer Transaction, Moxian IP Samoa became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In addition, under the Equity Transfer Agreement, the Company and REBL agreed to terminate the License and Acquisition Agreement. Immediately prior to the execution of the Equity Transfer Agreement, the Moxian BVI Purchase Price was not yet paid and no license maintenance royalty or earned royalty under the License and Acquisition Agreement had accrued. 8i Capital also provided business advisory service to REBL regarding the Equity Transfer Transaction.

The Company agreed to issue to REBL a convertible promissory note for $7,782,000 (the “Rebel Note”), representing the sum of the Moxian IP Samoa Purchase Price and the Moxian BVI Purchase Price. The Rebel Note was due and payable on October 30, 2015 without any interest. The Company had the option to cause REBL

54

to convert any and all amounts due under the Rebel Note into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the conversion price of $2.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”), if the volume weighted average price (the “VWAP”) of the Company’s Common Stock for a period of 30 trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion was higher than the Conversion Price. The Company also had a right of first refusal to purchase the shares issuable upon conversion of the Rebel Note at the price of 80% of the VWAP for 30 trading days immediately prior to the date of the proposed repurchase by the Company, or at the price of $2.00 per share if such purchase is lower than $2.00.

On August 14, 2015, the VWAP of the Company’s Common Stock for 30 trading days prior to August 14, 2015 was higher than $2.00, which triggered the conversion of the Rebel Note. The Company notified REBL that it elected to cause it to convert $3,891,000 of the Rebel Note into 1,945,500 shares of its Common Stock (the “August Conversion”). As a result of the August Conversion, the remaining amount of the Rebel Note was $3,891,000.

On September 30, 2015, the Company notified REBL that it elected to cause it to convert the remainder of the Rebel Note into 1,945,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “September Conversion”). After the August Conversion and September Conversion, the entire balance of the Rebel Note was converted into total of 3,891,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth, as of September 2, 2016, certain information concerning the beneficial ownership of our common stock by (i) each stockholder known by us to own beneficially five percent or more of our outstanding common stock or series a common stock; (ii) each director; (iii) each named executive officer; and (iv) all of our executive officers and directors as a group, and their percentage ownership and voting power.

The information presented below regarding beneficial ownership of our voting securities has been presented in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not necessarily indicative of ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of the security or the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security. A person is deemed to own beneficially any security as to which such person has the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power within sixty (60) days through the conversion or exercise of any convertible security, warrant, option, or other right. More than one (1) person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities. The percentage of beneficial ownership by any person as of a particular date is calculated by dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by such person, which includes the number of shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within sixty (60) days, by the sum of the number of shares outstanding as of such date. Consequently, the denominator used for calculating such percentage may be different for each beneficial owner. Except as otherwise indicated below and under applicable community property laws, we believe that the beneficial owners of our common stock listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown.

The column entitled “Percentage of Shares Beneficially Owned — Before Offering” is based on a total of 64,005,949 shares of our common stock outstanding on September 2, 2016. The columns entitled “Percentage of Shares Beneficially Owned — After Offering” also include (i) 500,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of $2,000,000 in loans at $4.00, which is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and (ii) 2,500,000 shares of common stock outstanding after completion of this offering assuming the closing of the minimum offering amount, or 5,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding after completion of this offering, assuming the closing of the maximum offering amount.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The following description of our capital stock is only a summary, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms and provisions of the capital stock contained in our articles of incorporation and our bylaws. On February 22, 2016, we entered into a share cancellation agreement with each of Good Eastern Investment Holdings Limited, Moxian China Limited and Stellar Elite Limited. Each entity agreed to cancel 50% of the shares beneficially owned by them for no consideration.

As of September 2, 2016, there were 64,005,949 shares of common stock outstanding, which were held by approximately 283 record shareholders.

Our authorized capital consists, post reverse stock split, of 350,000,000 shares, of which 250,000,000 shares are designated as shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 100,000,000 shares are designated as shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. No shares of preferred stock are currently outstanding. Shares of preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, each series to be appropriately designated by a distinguishing letter or title, prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions, relative, participating, options and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, of the Preferred Stock shall hereinafter be prescribed by resolution of the board of director before the issuance of any shares of Preferred Stock in such series.

Common Stock

Each share of our common stock entitles its holder to one vote per share on all matters to be voted or consented upon by the stockholders. The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends, in equal amounts per share, when and as declared by our Board of Directors from legally available sources, subject to any restrictions in our certificate of incorporation or prior rights of the holders of our preferred stock. In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in the assets available for distribution after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities, subject to the prior rights of the holders of our preferred stock. The holders of our common stock have no subscription, redemption or conversion privileges. Our common stock does not entitle its holders to preemptive rights. All of the outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock which we may issue in the future.

Registration Rights

Under the Rebel Note, REBL, the holder of a total of 3,891,000 shares of our common stock, may request that we register all or a portion of its shares of common stock for sale under the Securities Act, on one or more occasions, until all of the shares it owns are so registered, or are sold or otherwise transferred.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for our capital stock is Island Stock Transfer, located at 15500 Roosevelt Boulevard, Suite 301, Clearwater, FL 33760.

Listing

We have applied to have our common stock listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “MOXC.”

Control Share Acquisitions

The “control share” provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the NRS, apply to “issuing corporations” that are Nevada corporations with at least 200 stockholders of record, including at least 100 stockholders of record who are Nevada residents, and that conduct business directly or indirectly in Nevada, unless the corporation has elected to not be subject to these provisions.

59

The control share statute prohibits an acquirer of shares of an issuing corporation, under certain circumstances, from voting its shares of a corporation’s stock after crossing certain ownership threshold percentages, unless the acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation’s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies three thresholds: (a) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (b) one-third but less than a majority, and (c) a majority or more, of the outstanding voting power. Generally, once a person acquires shares in excess of any of the thresholds, those shares and any additional shares acquired within 90 days thereof become “control shares” and such control shares are deprived of the right to vote until disinterested stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired a majority or more of all voting power, all other stockholders who do not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights to the control shares are entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares in accordance with statutory procedures established for dissenters’ rights. A corporation may elect to not be governed by, or “opt out” of, the control share provisions by making an election in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, provided that the opt-out election must be in place on the 10 th day following the date an acquiring person has acquired a controlling interest, that is, crossing any of the three thresholds described above. We have not opted out of these provisions and will be subject to the control share provisions of the NRS if we meet the definition of an issuing corporation upon an acquiring person acquiring a controlling interest unless we later opt out of these provisions and the opt out is in effect on the 10 th day following such occurrence.

The effect of the Nevada control share statute is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with the acquiring person, will obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting. The Nevada control share law, if applicable, could have the effect of discouraging takeovers of our company.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Prior to this offering, only a limited public market for our common stock existed on the OTCQB. Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including shares issued upon exercise of outstanding warrants, or the anticipation of such sales, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock from time to time and could impair our ability to raise equity capital in the future.

Upon the closing of this offering, including the 500,000 shares of common stock outstanding upon the conversion of $ 2,000,000 loans assuming a public offering price of $4.00 per share, which is set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, we will have 67,005,949 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding assuming the minimum offering amount is sold and 69,505,949 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding assuming the maximum offering amount is sold. In addition we will have outstanding 67,105,949 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Agents’ Warrants assuming the minimum offering amount is sold and 69,705,949 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding assuming the maximum offering amount is sold.

All of the shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable unless purchased by our “affiliates,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act.

Related Party Loan Conversion

On September 7, 2016, we entered into note conversion agreements with Shenzhen Bayi Consulting Co. Ltd. and Moxian China Limited. The note conversion agreements provide for the conversion of promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $2,000,000 payable by us into shares of our common stock at the public offering price. On the date of this prospectus, the notes will automatically convert into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the public offering price per share being offered in this offering.

Lock-Up

For further details on the lock-up agreements, see the section entitled “Plan of Distribution — Lock Up Agreements.”

Rule 144

In general, under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, as in effect on the date of this prospectus, any person who is not our affiliate at any time during the preceding three months, and who has beneficially owned their shares for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than one of our affiliates, would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock provided current public information about us is available, and, after owning such shares for at least one year, including the holding period of any prior owner other than one of our affiliates, would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock without restriction.

A person who is our affiliate or who was our affiliate at any time during the preceding three months, and who has beneficially owned restricted securities for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than one of our affiliates, is entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

         1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding, which will equal approximately 670,059 shares assuming the minimum offering amount is sold and 695,059 shares assuming the maximum offering amount is sold, or

         the average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a Notice of Proposed Sale of Securities pursuant to Rule 144 with respect to the sale.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

In connection with this offering, we will enter into a placement agency agreement with Axiom Capital Management, Inc. and Cuttone & Co., Inc., which we refer to as the placement agents. The Placement Agents are not purchasing or selling any securities offered by this prospectus but will assist us in this offering on a “best efforts” basis. The Placement Agents have no obligation to buy any of the common shares from us nor are they required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the common shares, but have agreed to use their “best efforts” to arrange for the sale of a minimum of 2,500,000 common shares and a maximum of 5,000,000 common shares. The Placement Agents may retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents on its behalf in connection with this offering and may pay any sub-agent a solicitation fee with respect to any securities placed by it. Affiliates of the company and affiliates and associated persons of the Placement Agents may invest in this offering on the same terms and conditions as the public investors participating in this offering, and any common shares purchased will make up a portion of the minimum offering needed to complete this offering.

The common shares are being offered on a “best efforts” basis, meaning that the Placement Agents are not obligated to purchase any common shares. No common shares will be sold unless at least a minimum of 2,500,000 common shares have been sold no later than November 14, 2016. All monies collected for subscriptions will be held in a separate escrowed bank account at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust, New York, NY, which is serving as escrow agent, until the total amount of 2,500,000 common shares has been sold. Any checks for the purchase of shares should be made payable to “Continental Stock Transfer — Moxian, Inc. Escrow Account.” The Placement Agents will instruct their customers to transfer funds from their respective accounts directly to the escrow agent via wire transfer and will instruct other purchasers of the shares to make checks payable to “Continental Stock Transfer — Moxian, Inc. Escrow Account.” Upon receipt of funds sufficient for the sale of 2,500,000 shares and satisfaction of all other closing conditions, the funds may be transferred to our business account. In the event the minimum total of 2,500,000 shares is not sold prior to November 14, 2016, all monies will be returned to investors, without interest or deduction, within one business day.

Pursuant to applicable FINRA rules, and in particular Rule 5110, the warrants (and underlying shares) issued to the placement agents may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement related to this offering; provided, however, that the warrants (and underlying shares) may be transferred to officers or directors of the placement agents and their affiliates as long as the warrants (and underlying shares) remain subject to the lockup.

Lock-up Agreements

We, each of our directors and officers and holders of ten percent or more of our common stock on a fully diluted basis immediately prior to the consummation of this offering have agreed or are otherwise contractually restricted for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus, without the prior written consent of the placement agents not to directly or indirectly:

         issue (in the case of us), offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of our common stock or other capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock or other capital stock;

         in the case of us, file or cause the filing of any registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to any shares of our common stock or other capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock or other capital stock, other than registration statements on Form S-8 filed with the SEC after the closing date of this offering; or

         enter into any swap or other agreement, arrangement, hedge or transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our common stock or other capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock or other capital stock,

whether any transaction described in any of the foregoing bullet points is to be settled by delivery of our common stock or other capital stock, other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing.

There are no existing agreements between the placement agents and any person who will execute a lock-up agreement in connection with this offering providing consent to the sale of shares prior to the expiration of the lock-up period. The lock up does not apply to the issuance of shares upon the exercise of rights to acquire shares of common stock pursuant to any existing stock option or the conversion of any of our preferred convertible stock.

Indemnification and Contribution

The Placement Agency Agreement provides for indemnification between us and the placement agents against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and for contribution by us and the placement agents to payments that may be required to be made with respect to those liabilities. We have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification of liabilities under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is therefore, unenforceable.

Proceeds of this offering in the amount of $500,000 shall be used to fund an escrow account for a period of 24 months following the closing date of this offering, which account shall be used in the event we shall have to indemnify the placement agents pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement.

63

Stabilizing Transactions and Penalty Bids

In order to facilitate this offering, persons participating in this offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of our shares of common stock during and after this offering. Specifically, the Placement Agents may engage in the following activities in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Stabilizing transactions.  The Placement Agents may make bids for or purchases of shares of our common stock shares or shares for the purpose of pegging, fixing, or maintaining the price of the shares of our common stock or shares, so long as stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.

Penalty bids.  If the Placement Agents purchase shares in the open market in a stabilizing transaction or syndicate covering transaction, they may reclaim a selling concession from the placement agents and selling group members who sold those shares as part of this offering. Stabilization and syndicate covering transactions may cause the price of the shares to be higher than it would be in the absence of these transactions. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of the shares if it discourages resale of shares.

The transactions above may occur on NASDAQ or otherwise. Neither we nor the placement agents make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our shares. If these transactions are commenced, they may be discontinued without notice at any time.

Miscellaneous

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on websites maintained by the Placement Agents. These websites and the information contained on these websites, or connected to these websites, are not incorporated into and are not a part of this prospectus.

MOXIAN, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and nature of operations

Moxian, Inc. (formerly known as Moxian China, Inc., hereinafter referred as “Moxian,” together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 12, 2010. The Company, through its subsidiaries and variable interest entity, engages in the business of operating a social network platform that integrates social media and business into one single platform.

The Company is currently devoting its efforts to develop mobile application and an online platform that facilitates attracting more clients to small to medium size businesses. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital, develop apps and websites, generate servicing income, and ultimately, achieve profitable operations. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

On May 24, 2016 the Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-2 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split was effective on June 20, 2016 (the “Effective Date”). Simultaneously to the Reverse Stock Split, the number of shares of the Company’s authorized Common Stock was correspondingly reduced from 500,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares without changes in par value per share. The Company has retroactively restated all shares and per share data for all the periods presented.

2. Summary of principal accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and reflect the activities of the following subsidiaries and VIE: Moxian CN Samoa, Moxian BVI, Moxian HK, Moxian Shenzhen, Moxian Malaysia, Moyi, Moxian Beijing and Moxian IP Samoa. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.

The interim condensed consolidated financial information as of June 30, 2016 and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 have been prepared, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, which are normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The interim condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015, previously filed with the SEC.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2016 and its condensed consolidated results of operations for three and nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, and its condensed consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, as applicable, have been made. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

In accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of the United States of America (US GAAP), variable interest entities (VIEs) are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision making ability. All VIEs with which the Company is involved must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE for financial reporting purposes.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10 “Consolidation” addresses whether certain types of entities referred to as variable interest entities (“VIEs”), should be consolidated in a company’s consolidated financial statements. Pursuant to an Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement by and between Moxian Shenzhen and Moyi, dated July 15, 2014, Moxian Shenzhen has the exclusive right to provide to Moyi technical and systems support, marketing consulting services, training for technical personnel and technical consulting services. As payment for

these services, Moyi has agreed to pay Moxian Shenzhen a service fee equal to 100% Moyi’s pre-tax profit. In addition, Moxian Shenzhen will also absorb losses from Moyi, if any, based on the service agreement. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 810, the Company has determined that Moyi is a VIE of Moxian Shenzhen and that the Company is the primary beneficiary, and accordingly, the financial statements of Moyi are consolidated into the financial statements of the Company.

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded the current assets by approximately $3.1 million and its accumulated deficits were approximately $20.6 million and the Company has incurred losses since inception, which raise substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern. To maintain working capital sufficient to support the Company’s operation and finance the future growth of its business, the Company has comprehensively considered the available sources of funds as follows:

         Financial support from related parties; and

         Issuance of shares for private placement and or public offering

The Company does not currently have sufficient cash or commitments for financing to sustain its operations for the next twelve months. The Company plans to increase the cash flows from an initial public offering (“IPO”) and or other private placements. If the Company’s IPO and private placements do not reach the level anticipated in its plan, and the Company is not able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company may be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay our debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s operations are substantially carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations maybe substantially influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 — Observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

F-6

MOXIAN, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. Summary of principal accounting policies (cont.)

Level 3 — Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect management’s assumptions based on the best available information.

The carrying value of deposits and other receivables, accruals and other payables and loans from related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates required to be made by management include but not limited to, use lives of property and equipment, intangible assets, inventory valuation and deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Plant and Equipment, net

Plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Significant additions or improvements extending useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Computers

 

3 years

Office equipment

 

3 years

Furniture and fixtures

 

3 years

Leasehold improvements

 

Shorter of estimated useful life or term of lease

Intangible assets

Intangible assets, comprising Intellectual property rights (“IP rights”), which are separable from the fixed assets, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 3- 10 years. The Company makes judgments about the recoverability of intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist. Recoverability of finite-lived intangible assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows that the asset is expected to generate. The Company performs an annual impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of each year for indefinite-lived intangible assets, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine whether it is more likely than not that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of indefinite-lived intangible assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the future discounted cash flows that the asset is expected to generate. If the Company determines that an individual asset is impaired, the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset.

The assumptions and estimates used to determine future values and remaining useful lives of our intangible are complex and subjective. They can be affected by various factors, including external factors such as industry and economic trends, and internal factors such as our business strategy and our forecasts for specific market expansion. Based on the impairment assessment, the Company recognized impairment charges of $1,264,700 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016. $Nil impairment charge was recognized for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2015.

2. Summary of principal accounting policies (cont.)

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than the Company had originally estimated. When these events occur, the Company evaluates the impairment for the long-lived assets by comparing the carrying value of the assets to an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the fair value of the assets.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.

Income taxes

The Company utilizes ASC Topic 740 (“ASC 740”) “Income taxes”, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 “Income taxes” clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This interpretation requires that an entity recognizes in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the statements of operations.

Foreign currency transactions and translation

The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollars (the “USD”) and the functional currency of Moxian Shenzhen, Moyi and Moxian Beijing is Renminbi (the “RMB”) as China is the primary economic environment in which they operate, the functional currency of Moxian HK is Hong Kong Dollar (the “HKD”), and the functional currency of Moxian Malaysia is Malaysia Ringgit (the “MYR”).

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of Moxian Shenzhen, Moyi, Moxian Beijing, Moxian HK and Moxian Malaysia, which are prepared using their respective functional currencies, are translated into the reporting currency, United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”) so to be consolidated with the Company’s. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the reporting currency are translated into the reporting currency at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated using average rates prevailing during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ deficit. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation expense, and other related expenses associated with product development. Research and development expenses also include third-party development, programming costs, and localization costs incurred to translate software for local markets. Such costs related to software development are included in research and development expense until the point that technological feasibility is reached. Once technological feasibility is reached, such costs are capitalized and amortized to the cost of revenue over the estimated lives of the products.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In January 2016, the FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The new guidance is intended to improve the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance makes targeted improvements to existing U.S. GAAP by: (1) requiring equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Requiring public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (2) Requiring separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; (3) Eliminating the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; and. (4) Requiring a reporting organization to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, this update will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting, Leases (Topic 840). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize leases on their balance sheets, and leaves lessor accounting largely unchanged. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. Summary of principal accounting policies (cont.)

In April 2016, the FASB released ASU 2016-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The ASU includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments. While aimed at reducing the cost and complexity of the accounting for share-based payments, the amendments are expected to significantly impact net income, EPS, and the statement of cash flows. Implementation and administration may present challenges for companies with significant share-based payment activities. The ASU is effective for public companies in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. The amendments clarify the following two aspects of Topic 606: (a) identifying performance obligations; and (b) the licensing implementation guidance. The amendments do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606. Public entities should apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein (i.e., January 1, 2018, for a calendar year entity). Early application for public entities is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-11 Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815); Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting, which is rescinding certain SEC Staff Observer comments that are codified in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and Topic 932, Extractive Activities — Oil and Gas, effective upon adoption of Topic 606. The Company does not expect the adoption of the ASU to have any impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In May 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which is intended to not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, but rather affect only the narrow aspects of Topic 606 by reducing the potential for diversity in practice at initial application and by reducing the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis. The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of the ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.

No significant residual value is estimated for these intangible assets. Aggregate amortization expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $233,997 and $684,484, respectively. Amortization for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $169,550 and $339,100, respectively. Additionally, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded an impairment expense of $1,264,700 on the intangible — IP rights. No impairment charge was recorded for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2015.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company determined that sufficient indicators of potential impairment existed, which require an interim intangible assets-IP rights impairment analysis as a result of reduction of revenue and negative working capital. Based on the results of the assessment, the Company determined that the carrying value of the intangible asset — IP rights was not fully recoverable, and an impairment charge was recorded to the extent that estimated fair value exceeded carrying value. The Company primarily used a relief from royalty income approach to determine the fair value of the intangible assets — IP rights. The relief from royalty income model incorporated projected cash flows over a forecast period based on the remaining estimated lives of the IP rights. This was based on a number of key assumptions, including, but not limited to, a discount rate of 21% and the annual revenue projections based on the projected levels of merchant participation during the forecast periods, all of which were classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1,264,700 on definite-lived intangible assets — IP rights during the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2016.

Hong Kong

Moxian HK is incorporated in Hong Kong and Hong Kong’s profits tax rate is 16.5%. Moxian HK did not earn any income that was derived in Hong Kong for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, and therefore, Moxian HK was not subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax.

Malaysia

The management estimated that Moxian Malaysia will not generate any taxable income in the future.

PRC

Effective from January 1, 2008, the PRC’s statutory income tax rate is 25%. The Company’s PRC subsidiaries are subject to income tax rate of 25%, unless otherwise specified.

Moxian Shenzhen was incorporated in the People’s Republic of China. Moxian Shenzhen did not generate taxable income in the People’s Republic of China for the period from April 8, 2013 (date of inception) to June 30, 2016. The management estimated that Moxian Shenzhen will not generate any taxable income in the future.

The Company’s effective income tax rates were Nil for the three and nine month period ended June 30, 2015. Income tax mainly consists of foreign income tax at statutory rates and the effects of permanent and temporary differences.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company has a deferred tax asset of $85,981 resulting from certain net operating losses in PRC. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those net operating losses are available. The Company considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making its assessment. At present, the Company does not have a sufficient operation in the Moxian Shenzhen, Moxian Malaysia and Moxian Beijing to conclude that it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will be able to realize all of its tax benefits in the near future and therefore a valuation allowance has been provided for the full value of the deferred tax asset.

A valuation allowance will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence exists to support the reversal of any portion or all of the valuation allowance. Should Moxian Shenzhen, Moxian Malaysia and Moxian Beijing start to have sufficient operation in future periods with supportable trend, the valuation allowance will be reduced accordingly.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To: The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
        Moxian, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Moxian, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. These consolidated financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits 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 effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and comprehensive income, and its cash flows for each of the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying financial statements, the financial statements of the Company for the year ended September 30, 2015 have been restated to correct certain misstatements.

1. Organization and nature of operations

Moxian, Inc. (formerly known as Moxian China, Inc., hereinafter referred as “Moxian,” together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 12, 2010. The Company, through its subsidiaries and variable interest entity, engages in the business of operating a social network platform that integrates social media and business into one single platform.

On February 17, 2014, the Company incorporated Moxian CN Group Limited (“Moxian CN Samoa”) under the laws of Independent State of Samoa.

On February 21, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Moxian Group Limited (“Moxian BVI”) and its subsidiaries from Rebel Group, Inc., a Florida Corporation (“REBL”) pursuant to a License and Acquisition Agreement (the “License and Acquisition Agreement”).

Moxian BVI was incorporated on July 3, 2012 under the laws of British Virgin Islands. REBL owned 100% equity interests of Moxian BVI prior to the closing of the License and Acquisition Agreement, among the Company, Moxian BVI and REBL.

Moxian (Hong Kong) Limited (“Moxian HK”) was incorporated on January 18, 2013 and became Moxian BVI’s subsidiary since February 14, 2013. Moxian HK is currently engaged in the business of online social media. Moxian HK operates through two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Moxian Technologies (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. (“Moxian Shenzhen”) and Moxian Malaysia SDN BHD (“Moxian Malaysia”).

Moxian Shenzhen was invested and wholly owned by Moxian HK. Moxian Shenzhen was incorporated on April 8, 2013 and was engaged in the business of internet technology, computer software, commercial information consulting

Moxian Malaysia was incorporated on March 1, 2013 and became Moxian HK’s subsidiary since April 2, 2013. Moxian Malaysia is conducting its business in IT services and media advertising industry.

Shenzhen Moyi Technologies Co., Ltd. (“Moyi”) was incorporated on July 19, 2013 under the laws of the People’s Republic of China and became a variable interest entity (“VIE”) of Moxian Shenzhen since July 15, 2014. Moxian Shenzhen controls Moyi through arrangement that absorbs operations risk, as if Moyi were a wholly-owned subsidiary of Moxian Shenzhen.

On January 30, 2015, the Company entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement (the “Equity Transfer Agreement,” such transaction, the “Equity Transfer Transaction”) with REBL, to acquire from REBL 100% of the equity interests of Moxian Intellectual Property Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Samoa and a wholly-owned subsidiary of REBL (“Moxian IP Samoa”) for $6,782,000 (the “Moxian IP Samoa Purchase Price”). Moxian IP Samoa owns all the intellectual property rights relating to the operation, use and marketing of the Moxian Platform, including all of the trademarks, patents and copyrights that are used in the Company’s business. As a result of the Equity Transfer Transaction, Moxian IP Samoa became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Company is in the development stage as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915. Among the disclosures required by FASB ASC 915 are that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements be identified as those of a development stage company, and that the statements of earnings, retained earnings and stockholders’ equity and cash flows disclose activity since the date of the Company’s inception. The fiscal year end of the Company is September 30.

The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenue since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. Since October 12, 2010 (inception), the Company has generated revenue of $139,992 and has incurred an accumulated deficit of $11,174,812.

NOTES TO AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Stated in US Dollars)

1. Organization and nature of operations (cont.)

The Company is currently devoting its efforts to develop mobile application and online platform that facilitate the small to medium size businesses to attract more clients. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital, develop apps and websites, generate servicing income, and ultimately, achieve profitable operations. The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

2. Restatement of Financial Statements

Subsequent to the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2015, management identified errors in the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements. The Company has incorrectly accounted for: (i) the recognition of deferred tax assets derived from the net operating loss at the year ended September 30, 2015; (ii) the over accrued amortization of intangible assets for the year ended September 30, 2015; (iii) the overstated intangible assets and accruals and other payables as of September 30, 2015.

1)        The Company recognized $1.46 million of deferred tax assets derived from the net operating loss at the year ended September 30, 2015 (See note 10). Management considered this amount was over accrued by $1.41 million according to their best estimation. As a result, the deferred tax assets would decrease $1.41 million as of September 30, 2015, the income tax expenses — deferred tax benefit would also decrease by $1.41 million and the net loss would increase by $1.41 million for the year ended September 30, 2015.

2)        The Company identified that the amortization of intangible assets — Intellectual Property Rights was over accrued by $169,550 for the year ended September 30, 2015. As a result, the amortization of intangible assets would decrease $169,550 and the net loss would decrease by $169,550 for the year ended September 30, 2015.

3)        Moreover, the Company identified that the cost for purchasing intangible assets was overstated by $173,177 as of September 30, 2015. As a result, the intangible assets would decrease $173,177 and accruals and other payables would decrease $173,177 as of September 30, 2015

The impact of the restatement on the September 30, 2015 financial statements is reflected in the following tables:

3. Summary of principal accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and reflect the activities of the following subsidiaries and VIE: Moxian CN Samoa, Moxian BVI, Moxian HK, Moxian Shenzhen, Moxian Malaysia, Moyi and Moxian IP Samoa. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.

In accordance with the interpretation of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), variable interest entities (VIEs) are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision making ability. All VIEs with which the Company is involved must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE for financial reporting purposes.

ASC 810 (Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation Number (“FIN”) 46 (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and Interpretation of ARB No. 51” (“FIN 46R”), addresses whether certain types of entities referred to as variable interest entities (“VIEs”), should be consolidated in a company’s audited consolidated financial statements. Pursuant to an Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement by

and between Moxian Shenzhen and Moyi, dated July 15, 2014, Moxian Shenzhen has the exclusive right to provide to Moyi technical and systems support, marketing consulting services, training for technical personnel and technical consulting services. As payment for these services, Moyi has agreed to pay Moxian Shenzhen a service fee equal to 100% Moyi’s pre-tax profit. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 810, the Company has determined that Moyi is a VIE of Moxian Shenzhen and that the Company is the primary beneficiary, and accordingly, the financial statements of Moyi are consolidated into the financial statements of the Company.

Revenue recognition

Revenue are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the audited consolidated 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the audited consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income taxes

The Company utilizes FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 740 (“ASC 740”) “Income taxes” (formerly known as SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”), which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the audited consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 “Income taxes” (formerly known as Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (“FIN 48”)) clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This interpretation requires that an entity recognizes in the financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the statements of operations. The adoption of ASC 740 did not have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, deposits, trade and other payables approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of such instruments. The carrying amounts of borrowings approximate their fair values because the applicable interest rates approximate current market rates.

3. Summary of principal accounting policies (cont.)

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period while the effects of potential common shares outstanding during the period are included in diluted earnings per share. The average market price during the year is used to compute equivalent shares.

FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 260 (“ASC 260”), “Earnings Per Share,” requires that employee equity share options, non-vested shares and similar equity instruments granted to employees be treated as potential common shares in computing diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share should be based on the actual number of options or shares granted and not yet forfeited, unless doing so would be anti-dilutive. The Company uses the “treasury stock” method for equity instruments granted in share-based payment transactions provided in ASC 260 to determine diluted earnings per share. Antidilutive securities represent potentially dilutive securities which are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings or loss per share as their impact was antidilutive.

Plant and equipment, net

Plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Significant additions or improvements extending useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Computers

 

3 years

Office equipment

 

3 years

Furniture and fixtures

 

3 years

Leasehold improvements

 

Shorter of estimated useful lives or term of lease

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805: Business Combinations. The purchase method accounting requires that the consideration transferred to be allocated to the assets, including separately identifiable assets and liabilities the Company acquired based on their estimated fair values. The consideration transferred of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of the assets given, liabilities incurred, and equity instruments issued as well as the contingent considerations and all contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date. The costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed are measured separately at their fair value as of the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interests. The excess of (i) the total of cost of acquisition, fair value of the non-controlling interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquiree over (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized directly in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

The determination and allocation of fair values to the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and non-controlling interests is based on various assumptions and valuation methodologies requiring considerable management judgment. The most significant variables in these valuations are discount rates, terminal values, the number of years on which to base the cash flow projections, as well as the assumptions and estimates used to determine the cash inflows and outflows. The Company determines discount rates to be used based on the risks inherent in the related activity’s current business model and industry comparisons. Terminal values are based on the expected life of assets, forecasted life cycle and forecasted cash flows over that period.

In a business combination achieved in stages, the Company re-measures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and recognizes the resulting gain or loss in earnings.

3. Summary of principal accounting policies (cont.)

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over fair value of net assets acquired. Under ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized but evaluated for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the value may not be recoverable.

The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis as of the fiscal year end, and between annual tests when an event occurs or circumstances change that could indicate that the asset might be impaired. Commencing in September 2011, in accordance with the FASB revised guidance on “Testing of Goodwill for Impairment,” a company first has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the company decides, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is mandatory. Otherwise, no further testing is required. The quantitative impairment test consists of a two-step goodwill impairment test. The first step compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the fair value of each reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to be impaired and the second step will not be required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step compares the implied fair value of goodwill to the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in a manner similar to accounting for a business combination with the allocation of the assessed fair value determined in the first step to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to the assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. This allocation process is only performed for purposes of evaluating goodwill impairment and does not result in an entry to adjust the value of any assets or liabilities. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess in the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value of goodwill.

Application of a goodwill impairment test requires significant management judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value of each reporting unit. The judgment in estimating the fair value of reporting units includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and making other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value for each reporting unit.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets, comprising Intellectual property rights (“IP rights”) and other intangible assets, which are separable from the fixed assets, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 10 years.

Comprehensive income

The Company has adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 220 (“ASC 220”) “Comprehensive income” (formerly known as SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”), which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation adjustments of the Company.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, based on current information.

4. Acquisitions

Acquisition of Moxian BVI

On February 21, 2014, the Company entered into a License and Acquisition Agreement (“License and Acquisition Agreement”) with REBL, whereby the Company (i) acquired all the equity interests of Moxian BVI, and (ii) obtained the license to use the intellectual property rights (as define below) of REBL. Pursuant to the License and Acquisition Agreement, REBL agreed to sell, convey, and transfer 100% of the equity interests of Moxian BVI to Moxian CN Samoa, a newly incorporated wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in cash consideration of an aggregate of $1,000,000. As a result, The Company began to consolidate Moxian BVI, together with its subsidiaries, Moxian HK, Moxian Shenzhen, and Moxian Malaysia’s financial statement on February 21, 2014.

Under the License and Acquisition Agreement, REBL also agreed to grant us the exclusive right to use REBL’s IP Rights in Mainland China, Malaysia, and other countries and regions where REBL conducts its business (the “Licensed Territory”), and the exclusive right to solicit, promote, distribute and sell REBL products and services in the Licensed Territory for five years (the “License”). In exchange for such License, the Company agreed to pay to REBL: (i) $1,000,000 as a license maintenance royalty each year commencing from the second year from the date of the agreement; and (ii) 3% of the gross profit of distribution and sale of REBL products and services as an earned royalty. Pursuant to the License and Acquisition Agreement, the Company has the right to acquire the new IP Rights that are developed by REBL and sub-license such rights to a third party. The Company also has the obligation to develop the social media market in the Licensed Territory of REBL products and services.

The Company accounted for the acquisition of Moxian BVI as business acquisition in accordance with ASC 805.

The valuations used in the purchase price allocation were determined by the Company with the assistance of an independent third party valuation firm with the income approach applied. The allocation of the consideration for assets acquired and liability assumed based on their fair value was as follows:

4. Acquisitions (cont.)

The excess of the purchase price over the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill primarily represents the expected synergies from combining operations of Moxian BVI with those of the Company, which are complementary to each other, and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. In accordance with ASC350, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment and is not deductible for tax purposes.

Prior to the acquisition, Moxian BVI did not prepare its financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. The Company determined that the cost of reconstructing the financial statement of Moxian BVI for the periods prior to the acquisition outweighed the benefits. Based on a comparison of Moxian BVI’s and the Company’s financial performance for the fiscal year prior to the acquisition, the Company did not consider Moxian BVI on its own to be material to the Company. Thus the Company’s management believes that the presentation of pro forma financial information with respect to the results of operations of the Company for the business combination is impractical.

8. Shareholders’ equity (cont.)

or prior to July 31, 2015. On June 4, 2015, the Company and Zhongtou entered into a Termination Agreement to terminate the Zhongtou Subscription Agreement as Zhongtou’s principals have determined to make the investment described in the Zhongtou Subscription Agreement through a different entity, Beijing Xinhua Huifeng Equity Investment Center (Limited Partnership) (“Xinhua”).

On June 4, 2015, the Company and Xinhua entered into a new Subscription Agreement (“Xinhua Subscription Agreement”) on substantially the same terms as the Zhongtou Subscription Agreement (the “Transaction”). Pursuant to the Xinhua Subscription Agreement, if the Company fails to contract with 25,000 new paying merchants by September 30, 2016, the Company shall issue an additional number of shares of Common Stock to Xinhua, equal to 50% of the accumulated number of Warrant Shares exercised and acquired by Xinhua as of September 30, 2016, for no additional consideration (“Make Good Provision”). The Make Good Provision will be available only if Xinhua has exercised the Warrant and acquired more than 8,000,000 Warrant Shares (the “Condition”). Further, the Company shall issue 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Xinhua for no additional consideration if the Company fails to publish its full working version of the Moxian mobile application version 2.0 by September 30, 2015, or if the Company fails to uplist to a national securities exchange in the U.S. by June 30, 2017. Xinhua shall also have the right to nominate (i) one member of the Company’s accounting department; and (ii) one member of the board of directors provided that the Condition has been met.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Pursuant to Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, we have the power to indemnify 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, except an action by or in the right of the Company, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the registrant shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Nevada law.

With regard to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Corporation in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the common shares being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by a controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such case.

On June 30, 2015, the Company, Moxian Shenzhen, and Shenzhen Bayi Consulting Co., Ltd (“Bayi”) entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement to document the loan of $3,215,282 that Bayi has advanced to Moxian Shenzhen by May 30, 2015, and in exchange, the Company agreed to issue a 12-month convertible interest free promissory note of $3,215,282 (“Moxian Shenzhen-Bayi Note”). Under the Moxian Shenzhen-Bayi Note, all or any portion of the Moxian Shenzhen-Bayi Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company at the conversion price equal to the purchase price of the securities in the Qualified Financing. If no Qualified Financing is consummated before the maturity date, Bayi shall have the right to convert any and all of the Moxian Shenzhen-Bayi Note into shares of Common Stock of the Company at the 20 day trading VWAP as reported by Bloomberg, L.P.

The Notes issued to Moxian China Limited by the Company in consideration of the MCL Shenzhen Loans, the MCL Malaysia Loans and the MCL HK Loan are of substantially similar terms. The Notes will be due and payable in one year and bears no interest. Upon consummation of a financing that generates at least $5,000,000 by the Company (“Qualified Financing”), the Notes shall automatically convert into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the price of the Company’s securities sold in the Qualified Financing. If no Qualified Financing is consummated prior to the maturity date of Notes and as long as there remains any outstanding principal or interest of the Notes, holders of the Notes shall have the option to convert the Notes within 30 days after the maturity date at a conversion price that is equal to the volume weighted average price of Common Stock during a 20-day trading period prior to the conversion of the Notes.

On August 14, 2015, the Company issued 4,292,472 shares of Common Stock to Moxian China Limited, Jet Key Limited, Ace Keen Limited, Morolling International HK Limited and Shenzhen Bayi Consulting Co Ltd as a result of the conversion of $8,584,944 of convertible promissory notes held by Moxian China Limited, Jet Key Limited, Ace Keen Limited, Morolling International HK Limited and Shenzhen Bayi Consulting Co Ltd at that moment at $1.00 per share.

On August 14, 2015, $3,981,000 of such note was converted into 1,945,500 shares of our common stock.

On September 30. 2015, we issued an additional 1,945,500 shares of our common stock to REBL upon conversion of the remainder portion of the note.

On June 4, 2015, we agreed to sell Beijing Xinhua Huifeng Equity Investment Center (Limited Partnership) (“Xinhua”), an aggregate of 4,095,000 shares our common stock at a per share price of $2.00 for gross proceeds of $8,190,000 (approximately RMB50,000,000), and to issue to Xinhua, for no additional consideration, a warrant to purchase in the aggregate of 16,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share, exercisable on or prior to July 31, 2015. The closing date of the transaction, and the expiration date of the warrant, were both extended to December 31, 2015. On February 28, 2016, the Company closed the transaction and issued 4,095,010 shares of the Company Common Stock to Xinhua for an aggregate purchase price of $8,190,020, or $2.00 per share, of which $5,505,915 was received by the Company in fiscal 2015.

The above issuances were made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering.

Item 17. Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the placement agents at the closing specified in the placement agency agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the placement agents to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

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.

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.

(3)       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;

(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 a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(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.

(4)       That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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.

(5)       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.

(6)       That, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of

II-6

the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(7)       That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)        any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)       any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii)      the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv)      any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

The Company agrees promptly to notify each of the Placement Agents of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or any person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities or in connection with the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus; provided that failure by the Company so to notify the Placement Agents shall not relieve the Placement Agents from any obligation or liability which the Placement Agents may have on account of this Section 9 or otherwise to the Company, except to the extent (and only to the extent) that its ability to assume the defense is actually impaired by such failure or delay.

 

D.            Contribution . In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction makes a finding that indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified Person, the Company shall contribute to the Liabilities and Expenses paid or payable by such Indemnified Person in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and to the Placement Agents and any other Indemnified Person, on the other hand, of the matters contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by the immediately preceding clause is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agents and any other Indemnified Person, on the other hand, in connection with the matters as to which such Liabilities or Expenses relate, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that in no event shall the Company contribute less than the amount necessary to ensure that all Indemnified Persons, in the aggregate, are not liable for any Liabilities and Expenses in excess of the amount of commissions actually received by the Placement Agents pursuant to this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Placement Agents on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Placement Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (D) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (D). For purposes of this paragraph, the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and to the Placement Agents on the other hand, of the matters contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as: (a) the total value received by the Company in the Offering, whether or not such Offering is consummated, bears to (b) the commissions paid to the Placement Agents under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from a party who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

19

  Re: Moxian, Inc.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel to Moxian, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333- 210250) (as it may be amended, the “ Registration Statement ”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ Commission ”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Act ”). The Registration Statement relates to the proposed offering and sale by the Company of (i) a minimum of 2,500,000 and maximum of 5,000,000 shares (the “ Shares ”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), and (ii) placement agent warrants to purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to four percent (4%) of the number of Shares sold pursuant to the Registration Statement, at a per share exercise price equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the public offering price per Share, substantially in the form filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (the “ Placement Agent Warrants ”), and (iii) all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants (the “ Warrant Shares ”). We understand that the Shares are proposed to be sold for sale to the public, and the Placement Agent Warrants are proposed to be issued to the placement agents, as described in the Registration Statement and pursuant to a placement agent agreement, substantially in the form filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, to be entered into by the Company and the placement agents (the “ Placement Agent Agreement ”).

 

In connection with this opinion letter, we have examined the Registration Statement and originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records of the Company and other certificates and documents of officials of the Company, public officials and others as we have deemed appropriate for purposes of this letter. We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all copies submitted to us as conformed and certified or reproduced copies.

 

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that (i) the Shares have been duly authorized and, when such Shares are issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Placement Agent Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, (ii) the Placement Agent Warrants have been duly authorized by the Company and, when executed by the Company and delivered to the purchasers thereof against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Placement Agent Agreement, will be valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, and (iii) the Warrant Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and paid for, upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants in accordance with the terms therein, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

Our opinion is limited to the applicable statutory provisions of the Nevada Private Corporations Chapter of the Nevada Revised Statutes, Nev. Rev. Stat. 78, including interpretations thereof in published decisions of the Nevada courts, and applicable provisions of the Nevada Constitution. We express no opinion with respect to any other laws.

 

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference made to our name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Registration Statement and in the prospectus forming a part thereof. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

 

Very truly yours,

WHEREAS , the Escrow Agent has an agreement with JP Morgan Chase to establish a special Bank Account (the “ Bank Account ”) into which the subscription monies, which are received by the Escrow Agent from the Placement Agents and credited to the Escrow Account, are to be deposited.

 

NOW, THEREFORE in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

3 Deposits to the Bank Account .

 

3.1 The Placement Agents shall promptly deliver to the Escrow Agent all monies in the form of checks or wire transfers which it receives from prospective purchasers of the Securities by the end of the next business day following receipt where internal supervisory review is conducted at the same location at which subscription documents and monies are received.

3.2 Promptly after receiving subscription monies as described in Section 3.1, the Escrow Agent shall deposit the same into the Bank Account. Amounts of monies so deposited are hereinafter referred to as “ Escrow Amounts ”. The Escrow Agent shall cause the Bank to process all Escrow Amounts for collection through the banking system.

  2  

 

 

3.3 The Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept for credit to the Escrow Account or for deposit into the Bank Account checks which are not accompanied by the appropriate Subscription Information, which at minimum shall include the name, address, tax identification number and the number of shares/units. Wire transfers representing payments by prospective purchasers shall not be deemed deposited in the Escrow Account until the Escrow Agent has received in writing the Subscription Information required with respect to such payments.

 

3.4 The Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept in the Escrow Account any amounts representing payments by prospective purchasers, whether by check or wire, except during the Escrow Agent’s regular business hours.

 

3.5 Only those Escrow Amounts, which have been deposited in the Bank Account and which have cleared the banking system and have been collected by the Escrow Agent, are herein referred to as the “ Fund ”.

 

3.6 If the proposed offering is terminated before the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall refund any portion of the Fund prior to disbursement of the Fund in accordance with Article 4 hereof upon instructions in writing signed by both the Issuer and the Placement Agents.

In such event, the Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Placement Agents of its distribution of the Fund.

 

4.2 Subject to Section 4.3 below, if at any time up to the close of regular banking hours on the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent determines that the amount in the Fund is at least equal to the Minimum Dollar Amount and represents the sale of not less than the Minimum Securities Amount, the Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Placement Agents of such fact in writing.

4.3 (This provision applies only if a Collection Period has been provided for by the appropriate indication on the Information Sheet.) If the Escrow Agent or the Placement Agents has on hand at the close of business on the Termination Date any uncollected amounts which when added to the Fund would raise the amount in the Fund to the Minimum Dollar Amount, and result in the Fund represent the sale of the Minimum Securities Amount, the Collection Period (consisting of the number of business days set forth on the Information Sheet) shall be utilized to allow such uncollected amounts to clear the banking system.

5.3 The Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept from the Placement Agents (or the Issuer) any Subscription Information pertaining to prospective purchasers unless such Subscription Information is accompanied by checks, or wire transfers meeting the requirements of Section 3.1, nor shall the Escrow Agent be required to keep records of any information with respect to payments deposited by the Placement Agents (or the Issuer) except as to the amount of such payments; however, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Placement Agents within a reasonable time of any discrepancy between the amount set forth in any Subscription Information and the amount delivered to the Escrow Agent therewith.

Upon the deposit by the Escrow Agent of the Fund with the Clerk of any court, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability hereunder.

Investor agrees to buy and the Company agrees to sell to Investor such number of shares (the “ Shares ”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “ Common Stock ”), as set forth on the signature page hereto, for an aggregate purchase price (the “ Purchase Price ”) equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of Shares the Investor has agreed to purchase and (y) the purchase price per share as set forth on the signature page hereto.

 

The offer and sale of the Shares has been registered pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1, Registration No. 333-210250 (the “ Registration Statement ”). The Registration Statement will have been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ Commission ”) prior to issuance of any Shares and acceptance of any Investor’s subscription. The prospectus, however, is subject to change. A final prospectus and/or prospectus supplement will be delivered to the Investor as required by law.

 

The Shares are being offered by Axiom Capital Management Inc. and Cuttone & Co., Inc. (the “ Placement Agents ”) as placement agents on a “best efforts basis”. The completion of the purchase and sale of the Shares (the “ Closing ”) shall take place at a place and time (the “ Closing Date ”) to be specified by the Company and Placement Agents in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”). Upon satisfaction of all the Minimum Offering set forth in the preliminary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement when it is declared effective by the Commission, at the Closing (i) the Purchase Price deposited by the Investor subsequent to the declaration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Company’s escrow account per wire instructions as provided on the signature line below shall be released to the Company, and (ii) the Company shall cause the Shares to be delivered to the Investor (A) through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC system in accordance with the instructions set forth on the signature page attached hereto under the heading “DWAC Instructions,” or (B) if requested by the Investor on the signature page hereto or if the Company is unable to make the delivery through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company’s DWAC system, through the book-entry delivery of Shares on the books and records of the transfer agent. If delivery is made by book entry on the books and records of the transfer agent, the Company shall send written confirmation of such delivery to the Investor at the address indicated on the Signature Page hereof). Each of the Placement Agents and any participating broker dealers (the “ Members ”) shall confirm, via the Placement Agency Agreement, selected dealer agreement or master selected dealer agreement, as applicable, that it will comply with Rule 15c2-4 under the Exchange Act.

Exhibit 14.1

 

CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS

OF
MOXIAN, INC.

Adopted: September 7, 2016

 

The Board of Directors of Moxian, Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted this Code of Ethics (this “Code”) to provide value for both our members and stockholders; and

 

  To encourage honest and ethical conduct, including fair dealing and the ethical handling of conflicts of interest;

 

  To prompt full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure;

 

  To comply with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;

 

  To prompt internal reporting of violations of this Code;

 

  To protect the Company's legitimate business interests, including corporate opportunities, assets and confidential information; and

 

  To deter wrongdoing.

 

All directors, officers, employees and independent contractors of the Company are expected to be familiar with the Code and to adhere to those principles and procedures set forth in the Code. For purposes of the code, all directors, officers, employees and independent contractors will refer to collectively as “employees” or “you” throughout this code.

 

I. Honest and Ethical Conduct

 

All directors, officers, employees and independent contractors owe duties to the Company to act with integrity. Integrity requires, among other things, being honest and ethical. This includes the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships. Deceit and subordination of principle are inconsistent with integrity.

 

All directors, officers, employees and independent contractors have the following duties:

 

  To conduct business with professional courtesy and integrity, and act honestly and fairly without prejudice in all commercial dealings;

 

  To work in a safe, healthy and efficient manner, using skills, time and experience to the maximum of abilities;

 

  To comply with applicable awards, Company policies and job requirements, and adhere to a high standard of business ethics;

 

 

 

  To observe both the form and spirit of laws, governmental rules, regulations and accounting standards;

 

  Not to knowingly make any misleading statements to any person or to be a party to any improper practice in relation to dealings with or by the Company;

 

  To ensure that Company resources and properties are used properly;

 

  To maintain the confidentiality of information where required or consistent with Company policies; and

 

  Not to disclose information or documents relating to the Company or its business, other than as required by law, not to make any unauthorized public comment on Company affairs and not to misuse any information about the Company or its associates, and not to accept improper or undisclosed material personal benefits from third parties as a result of any transaction or transactions of the Company.

 

II. Conflicts of Interest

 

A “conflict of interest” arises when an individual's personal interest interferes or appears to interfere with the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest can arise when a director, officer or employee takes actions or has personal interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Company work objectively and effectively.

 

There are a variety of situations in which a conflict of interest may arise. While it would be impractical to attempt to list all possible situations, some common types of conflicts may be:

 

To serve as a director, employee or contractor for a company that has a business relationship with, or is a competitor of the Company;

 

To have a financial interest in a competitor, supplier or customer of the Company;

 

To receive improper personal benefits from a competitor, supplier or customer, as a result of any transaction or transactions of the Company;

 

To accept financial interest beyond entertainment or nominal gifts in the ordinary course of business, such as a meal or a coffee mug;

 

To present at a conference where the conference sponsor has a real or potential business relationship with the Company (e.g. vendor, customer, or investor), and, the conference sponsor offers travel or accommodation arrangements or other benefits materially in excess of the Company’s standard; or

 

To use for personal gain, rather than for the benefit of the Company, an opportunity that discovered through the role with the Company.

 

  2  
 

 

Fidelity or service to the Company should never be subordinated to or dependent on personal gain or advantage. Conflicts of interest should be avoided.

 

In most cases, anything that would constitute a conflict for a director, officer or employee also would present a conflict if it is related to a member of his or her family.

 

Interests in other companies, including potential competitors and suppliers, that are purely for management of the other entity, or where an otherwise questionable relationship is disclosed to the Board and any necessary action is taken to ensure there will be no effect on the Company, are not considered conflicts unless otherwise determined by the Board.

 

Evaluating whether a conflict of interest exists can be difficult and may involve a number of considerations. Please refer to other policies, such as employee handbook, for further information. We also encourage you to seek guidance from your manager, Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, when you have any questions or doubts.

 

III. Disclosure

 

Each director, officer or employee, to the extent involved in the Company's disclosure process, including the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, the (the “Senior Financial Officers”), is required to be familiar with the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures applicable to him or her so that the Company's public reports and documents comply in all material respects with the applicable securities laws and rules. In addition, each such person having direct or supervisory authority regarding these securities filings or the Company's other public communications concerning its general business, results, financial condition and prospects should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other Company officers and employees and take other appropriate steps regarding these disclosures with the goal of making full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure.

 

Each director, officer or employee, to the extent involved in the Company’s disclosure process, including the Senior Financial Officers, must: 

 

Familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements applicable to the Company as well as the business and financial operations of the Company.

 

Not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Company to others, whether within or outside the Company, including to the Company's independent auditors, governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations.

 

  3  
 

 

IV. Compliance

 

It is the Company's policy to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. It is the personal responsibility of each employee, officer and director to adhere to the standards and restrictions imposed by those laws, rules and regulations in the performance of their duties for the Company, including those relating to accounting and auditing matters and insider trading.

 

The Board endeavors to ensure that the directors, officers and employees of the Company act with integrity and observe the highest standards of behavior and business ethics in relation to their corporate activities.

 

Specifically, that directors, officers and employees must:

 

  Comply with the law;
     
  Act in the best interests of the Company;
     
  Be responsible and accountable for their actions; and
     
  Observe the ethical principles of fairness, honesty and truthfulness, including disclosure of potential conflicts.

   

Generally, it is against Company policies for any individual to profit from undisclosed information relating to the Company or any other company in violation of insider trading or other laws. Anyone who is aware of material nonpublic information relating to the Company, our customers, or other companies may not use the information to purchase or sell securities in violation of securities laws.

 

If you are uncertain about the legal rules involving your purchase or sale of any Company securities or any securities in companies that you are familiar with by virtue of your work for the Company, you should consult with the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, before making any such purchase or sale. Other policies issued by the Company also provide guidance as to certain of the laws, rules and regulations that apply to the Company's activities.

 

V. Reporting and Accountability

 

The Board of Directors has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. Any director, officer or employee who becomes aware of any violation of this Code is required to notify Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, promptly.

 

Any questions relating to how these policies should be interpreted or applied should be addressed to your manager, Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents. Any material transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest, as discussed in Section II of this Code, should be discussed with your manager, Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents. A director, officer or employee who is unsure of whether a situation violates this Code should discuss the situation with the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, to prevent possible misunderstandings and embarrassment at a later date.

 

  4  
 

 

Each director, officer or employee must:

 

  Notify the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, promptly of any existing or potential violation of this Code.
     
  Not retaliate against any other director, officer or employee for reports of potential violations.

 

The Company will follow the following procedures in investigating and enforcing this Code and in reporting on the Code: 

 

  The Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, as the case may be, will take all appropriate action to investigate any violations reported. In addition, the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, as appropriate, shall report each violation and alleged violation involving a director or an executive officer to the Chairman of the Board of Directors. To the extent he or she deems appropriate, the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall participate in any investigation of a director or executive officer. After the conclusion of an investigation of a director or executive officer, the conclusions shall be reported to the Board of Directors.
     
  The Board of Directors will conduct such additional investigation as it deems necessary. The Board will determine that a director or executive officer has violated this Code. Upon being notified that a violation has occurred, the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents, as the case may be, will take such disciplinary or preventive action as deemed appropriate, up to and including dismissal or, in the event of criminal or other serious violations of law, notification of appropriate law enforcement authorities.

   

VI. Corporate Opportunities

 

Employees, officers and directors are prohibited from taking (or directing to a third party) a business opportunity that is discovered through the use of corporate property, information or position, unless the Company has already been offered the opportunity and turned it down. More generally, employees, officers and directors are prohibited from using corporate property, information or position for personal gain and from competing with the Company. Sometimes the line between personal and Company benefits is difficult to draw, and sometimes there are both personal and Company benefits in certain activities. Employees, officers and directors who intend to make use of Company property or services in a manner not solely for the benefit of the Company should consult beforehand with your manager, the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents.

 

  5  
 

 

VII. Confidentiality

 

In carrying out the Company's business, employees, officers and directors often learn confidential or proprietary information about the Company, its customers, suppliers, or joint venture parties. Employees, officers and directors must maintain the confidentiality of all information so entrusted to them, except when disclosure is authorized or legally mandated. Confidential or proprietary information of our Company, and of other companies, includes any non-public information that would be harmful to the relevant company or useful or helpful to competitors if disclosed.

 

VIII. Fair Dealing

 

Our core value of operating is based on responsiveness, openness, honesty and trust with our members, business partners, employees and stockholders. We do not seek competitive advantages through illegal or unethical business practices. Each employee, officer and director should endeavor to deal fairly with the Company's customers, service providers, suppliers, competitors and employees. No employee, officer or director should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any unfair dealing practice.

 

IX. Protection and Proper Use of Company Assets

 

All employees, officers and directors should protect the Company's assets and ensure their efficient use. All Company assets should be used only for legitimate business purposes. Theft, careless and waste have a direct impact on our profit.

 

XI. Waivers and Amendments

 

From time to time, the Company may waive provisions of this Code. Any employee or director who believes that a waiver may be called for should discuss the matter with your manager, the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or their equivalents.

 

Any waiver of the Code for executive officers (including Senior Financial Officers) or directors of the Company may be made only by the Board of Directors and must be promptly disclosed to stockholders along with the reasons for such waiver in a manner as required by applicable law or the rules of the applicable stock exchange. Any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Code must be approved in writing by the Board or, if appropriate, its delegate(s) and promptly disclosed pursuant to applicable laws and regulations.

 

Any waiver or modification of the Code for a Senior Financial Officer will be promptly disclosed to stockholders if and as required by applicable law or the rules of the applicable stock exchange.

 

The Company is committed to continuously reviewing and updating its policies, and therefore reserves the right to amend this Policy at any time, for any reason, subject to applicable law.
