PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights certain information about us and this offering contained elsewhere in this prospectus. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our securities and it is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. Before you decide to invest in our securities, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including “Risk Factors” beginning on page 4, and the financial statements and related notes included in this prospectus.

 

Overview

 

We have developed and commenced commercializing a financial technology product, CORO which uses advanced distributed ledger technology for improved security, speed, and reliability. CORO is a global money transmitter that allows customers to send, receive, and exchange currencies faster, cheaper and more securely, initially consisting of the ability to send, receive and exchange U.S. dollars and gold. Our mission through CORO is to democratize access to gold as sound money. CORO makes it simple, convenient and affordable to use gold as money. The CORO mobile app was completed and released in select U.S. markets in August 2020. Following the initial commercial release, CORO has expanded into new markets and is now licensed, approved and operating in 23 U.S. states plus the District of Columbia. CORO intends to expand the release of the app throughout the U.S. in 2021. The Company will also pursue money transmission licenses in foreign countries such as Mexico and Canada.

 

We believe CORO is the world’s first global payment application that includes gold, the oldest and most trusted money. CORO technology facilitates money transmission and exchange with faster speeds, better security, and lower costs than existing options in the marketplace. An important component of the CORO payment system is our Financial Crime Risk Management (FCRM) solution. We have developed our FCRM platform, with integrated Anti-Money Laundering / Know Your Customer onboarding and transaction monitoring to provide a fully integrated compliance solution for CORO’s compliance department. The solution meets the rigorous demands of government regulators, while supporting our customers. The FCRM technology has been completed and is incorporated within the CORO mobile payment system.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities includes a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should consider carefully the specific factors discussed below, together with all of the other information contained in this prospectus. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected by these risks. 

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

We have a limited operating history under our current business focus, and we may not succeed.

 

We have a limited operating history, in particular under our current business focus, and we may not succeed. We released CORO, our first product under our current business focus, in select US markets in August 2020. You should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies that, like us, are in their early stages. For example, unanticipated expenses, problems, and technical difficulties may occur and they may result in material challenges to our business. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our operating strategies. If we fail to do so, such failure could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operation. We may never generate significant revenues or achieve profitability.

 

We may not succeed in commercializing CORO or any future product.

 

We commenced commercializing our CORO product in August 2020 and we have begun generating revenues. We may face difficulties or delays in the commercialization of CORO or any future products, which could result in our inability to timely offer products or services that satisfy the market.

 

We may encounter significant competition and may not be able to successfully compete.

 

There are many financial technology companies developing money transmission products, and more competitors are likely to arrive. Some of our competitors have considerably more financial resources than us, and the backing of traditional large financial institutions. As a result, we may not be able to successfully compete in our market, which could result in our failure to successfully commercialize CORO, or otherwise fail to successfully compete. There can be no assurances that we will be able to compete successfully in this environment.

 

The distributive ledger technology on which CORO relies may be the target of malicious cyberattacks or may contain exploitable flaws in its underlying code, which could result in security breaches and the loss or theft of funds. If such attacks occur or security is compromised, this could expose us to liability and reputational harm and could seriously curtail the utilization of CORO, resulting in customers reducing their use of CORO, or stopping their use of CORO altogether.

 

The structural foundation, the software applications and other interfaces or applications upon which CORO relies are unproven, and there can be no assurances that CORO and the creating, transfer or storage of data and funds will be uninterrupted or fully secure, which could result in impermissible transfers, and a complete loss of a customer’s data and funds. CORO may be subject to a cyberattack, software error, or other intentional or negligent act or omission that results in the theft of funds, funds being lost, destroyed or otherwise compromised. Further, CORO (and any technology on which we rely) may also be the target of malicious attacks from hackers or malware distributors seeking to identify and exploit weaknesses in the software, which could result in the loss or theft of data and funds.  If such attacks occur or security is compromised, this could expose us to liability and reputational harm and could seriously curtail the utilization of CORO, resulting in customers reducing their use of CORO or stopping their use altogether, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

4

 

 

We may not be able to raise capital as needed to develop our products or maintain our operations.

 

We expect that we will need to raise additional funds to execute our business plan and expand our operations. Additional financing may not be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. If we cannot raise needed funds on acceptable terms, our business and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

We may face risks of Internet disruptions, which could have an adverse effect on the use of our products.

 

A disruption of the Internet may affect the use of our products. Generally, our products are dependent upon the Internet. A significant disruption in Internet connectivity could disrupt network operations until the disruption is resolved.

 

Exchange rates are continuously changing and can be volatile. CORO customers will be exposed to this risk.

 

The price of gold is continuously changing and has exhibited periods of volatility throughout history. Customers that choose to maintain gold balances (which would be in XAU, the International Organization of Standardization’s currency code for gold.) but have personal liabilities in U.S. dollars (USD) will be exposed to this potential volatility and could incur significant gains or losses when converting from XAU back to USD. This may make CORO less appealing to prospective customers.

 

CORO is not a market maker and thus will not guarantee a fixed bid/ask spread or guarantee that a bid or an ask will be available to customers. CORO will be reliant on the financial institutions with whom it interacts to facilitate its services.

 

CORO will be dependent upon the bid/ask spread as provided by large gold dealers and London Bullion Market Association, or LBMA members. In times of market turbulence, it is possible that the bid/ask spread could widen significantly thus increasing the cost of transacting between XAU and USD. This may make CORO less appealing to prospective customers.

 

Changes in general economic and business conditions, internationally, nationally and in the markets in which we operate, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

 

Our operating results may be subject to factors which are outside of our control, including changes in general economic and business conditions, internationally, nationally and in the markets in which we operate. Such factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

 

In addition, disruptions in the credit and financial markets, declines in consumer confidence, increases in unemployment, declines in economic growth and uncertainty about earnings could have a significant negative impact on the U.S. and global financial and credit markets and the overall economy. Such events could have an adverse impact on financial institutions resulting in limited access to capital and credit for many companies. Furthermore, economic uncertainties make it very difficult to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. Changes in economic conditions, changes in financial markets, deterioration in the capital markets or other factors could have an adverse effect on our financial position, revenues, results of operations and cash flows and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our operations will significantly rely on our team of managers, advisors, and technical personnel.

 

The successful operation and development of our business will be dependent primarily upon the operating and management skills of our managers, advisors, and technical personnel. The loss of the services of any one of our key personnel, in particular our Chief Executive Officer, David Dorr, and Chief Operating Officer, Brian Dorr, could have a material adverse impact on our ability to realize our objectives, including our ability to complete development of, launch and commercialize our planned products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

5

 

 

If we fail to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights, we could lose our ability to compete.

 

Our intellectual property, which currently includes our trademark for “CORO” (registration pending) and our license for use of Hashgraph (see “Business—Hashgraph License”), and proprietary rights are essential to our ability to remain competitive and successful in the development of our products and our business. We expect to rely on a combination of trademark, copyright, and trade secret laws as well as confidentiality agreements and procedures, non-competition agreements, and other contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property, other proprietary rights, and our brand. Our intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by third parties. We may not be able to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of our technical knowledge or other trade secrets by employees or competitors. If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property or proprietary rights, our competitors could use it to enhance their products, compete against us, and take our market share. Our inability to adequately protect our intellectual property could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Other companies may claim that we infringe their intellectual property.

 

We do not believe that our technologies infringe, or will infringe, on the proprietary rights of any third party, but claims of infringement are becoming increasingly common and third parties may assert infringement claims against us in the future. It may be difficult or impossible to identify, prior to receipt of notice from a third party, the trade secrets, patent position or other intellectual property rights of a third party. If CORO or any future products we may sell were found to infringe on other parties’ proprietary rights and we are unable to come to terms regarding a license with such parties, we may be forced to modify our products to make them non-infringing or to cease to offer such products altogether, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We have an evolving business model.

 

As financial technologies become more widely available, we expect the services and products associated with them to evolve. In order to stay current with the industry, our business model may need to evolve as well. From time to time, we may modify aspects of our business model relating to our product mix and service offerings. Any such modifications we may make may not be successful and may result in harm to our business. We may not be able to manage growth effectively, which could damage our reputation, limit our growth and negatively affect our operating results.

 

The Covid-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic is having widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global society, economies, financial markets, and business practices. The continuing impacts of COVID-19 are highly unpredictable and could be significant, and may have an adverse effect on our business, operations and our future financial performance.

 

The impact of the pandemic on our business, operations and future financial performance could include, but is not limited to, that:

 

We may experience delays in expanding commercialization of our product;

 

The rapid and broad-based shift to a remote working environment creates inherent productivity, connectivity, and oversight challenges.

 

Volatility in the equity markets could affect the value of our equity to shareholders and have an impact on our ability to raise capital.

 

If we fail to comply with anti-money laundering laws, it may harm our business.

 

We are subject to various anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing laws and regulations that prohibit, among other things, our involvement in transferring the proceeds of criminal activities. Regulators in the U.S. and other regulators globally continue to increase their scrutiny of compliance with these obligations, which may require us to further revise or expand our compliance program, including the procedures we use to verify the identity of our customers and to monitor transactions. In addition to laws in the United States, other countries in which we plan to operate also have anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing laws and regulations, and we may be required to make changes to our compliance program in various jurisdictions in response. Such changes could have the effect of making compliance more costly and operationally difficult to manage, lead to increased friction for customers, and result in a decrease in business. Non-compliance with anti-money laundering laws may subject us to significant fines, penalties, lawsuits, and enforcement actions, result in regulatory sanctions and additional compliance requirements, increase regulatory scrutiny of our business, restrict our operations or damage our reputation and brand.

Risks Related to this Offering and our Common Stock 

 

There is not an active, liquid market for our common stock, and investors may find it difficult to buy and sell our shares.

 

Our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange. Accordingly, investors may find it more difficult to buy and sell our shares than if our common stock was traded on an exchange. Although our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB, it is an unorganized, inter-dealer, over-the-counter market which provides significantly less liquidity than the Nasdaq Capital Market or other national securities exchange. Further, there is little reported trading in our common stock. These factors may have an adverse impact on the trading and price of our common stock.

 

Further, we have applied to have our common stock listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If our application is not approved, we will not complete this offering. In the event this offering is completed and our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, there is no assurance an active trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained or that we will remain eligible for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

  

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations.

 

In the event a more active market for common stock develops, we anticipate that the market price of our common stock will be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:

 

  variations in our quarterly operating results;

 

  announcements that our revenue or income are below analysts’ expectations;

 

  general economic slowdowns;

 

  sales of large blocks of our common stock; and

 

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

 

Our common stock has in the past been, and may in the future be considered a “penny stock” and thus be subject to additional sale and trading regulations that may make it more difficult to buy or sell.

 

Our common stock, which is traded on the OTCQB has in the past been, and may (if it is not then listed on a national securities exchange such as the Nasdaq Capital Market) in the future be considered a “penny stock.” Securities broker-dealers participating in sales of “penny stock” are subject to the “penny stock” regulations set forth in Rules 15g-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

   

7

 

 

We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future.

 

We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, we currently anticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. Investors should take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect the value of any investment in the Company.

 

Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

 

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders of preferred stock the right to our assets upon liquidation, or the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of preferred stock or to create any series of preferred stock, we may create such series and issue such shares in the future.

  

Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute then-existing shareholders’ percentage ownership of the Company.

 

Given our plans and expectations that we will need additional capital and personnel, we anticipate that we will need to issue additional shares of common stock or securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options or warrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.

 

Ownership of our common stock is highly concentrated.

 

Our executive officers, directors, and principal stockholders will beneficially own an aggregate of approximately 75% of our outstanding common stock (see “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management”) after giving effect to the sale of the shares offered hereby. As a result, such principal stockholders will be able to exert significant control over the election of the members of our board of directors, our management, and our affairs, and other corporate transactions (such as mergers, consolidations, or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets) that are submitted to shareholders for approval, and their interests may differ from the interests of other stockholders.

 

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering and may experience additional dilution in the future.

 

You will incur immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering. After giving effect to the sale by us of shares offered in this offering at an assumed public offering price of $5.15 per share, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, investors in this offering can expect an immediate dilution of approximately $4.57 per share. See “Dilution” below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase our common stock in the offering.

 

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering, and may not use the proceeds effectively.

 

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that may not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our common stock. Our failure to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

These forward-looking statements reflect our management’s beliefs and views with respect to future events, are based on estimates and assumptions as of the date of this prospectus and are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements. We discuss many of these risks in greater detail in this prospectus under “Risk Factors.” Moreover, new risks emerge from time to time. 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.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable laws or regulations.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the securities we are offering will be approximately $13.6 million (or approximately $15.7 million if the underwriters exercise in full their over-allotment option), after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering costs payable by us.

 

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including expanding the commercial launch and marketing of our CORO product, customer acquisition and working capital.

 

This expected use of the net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions. Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, we currently anticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan.

 

DILUTION

 

If you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering. Our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2020 was $1,287,101 or $0.05 per share of common stock. After giving effect to the sale by us of 320,000 shares of common stock between October 1, 2020 and January 25, 2021 for gross proceeds of $1,600,000, our pro forma net tangible book value at September 30, 2020 would have been $2,887,101 or $0.11 per share.

 

“Net tangible book value” is total assets minus the sum of liabilities and intangible assets. “Net tangible book value per share” is net tangible book value divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding.

 

After giving effect to the sale by us in this offering of 2,912,621 shares at an assumed public offering price of $5.15 per share (the closing price of our common stock on January 22, 2021) and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses that we will pay, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2020 would have been approximately $16,507,101, or $0.58 per share of common stock. This amount represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.47 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $4.57 per share to purchasers in this offering.

 

The following table illustrates the dilution:

 

Assumed public offering price per share   $ 5.15  
Net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2020   $ 0.05  
Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2020   $ 0.11  
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to this offering   $ 0.47  
Pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering   $ 0.58  
Dilution per share to new investors   $ 4.57  

  

The above table is based on 25,052,746 shares of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2020.

  

If the underwriters exercise in full their over-allotment option, our net tangible book value per share after giving effect to this offering would be approximately $18,599,601 or $0.65 per share, which amount represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.54 per share to existing stockholders and dilution to new investors of $4.50 per share.

We anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital to execute our business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we raise funds through the sale of common stock or securities convertible into common stock, it may result in substantial dilution to our then-existing stockholders.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

  

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, we recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification. The updated guidance states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also provides for additional disclosures with respect to revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The standard was effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and we adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We account for all compensation related to stock; options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. We use the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the date of the related agreement.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. We conduct our long-lived asset impairment analyses in accordance with ASC 360-10-15, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC 360-10-15 requires the Company to group assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities and evaluate the asset group against the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows. If the undiscounted cash flows do not indicate the carrying amount of the asset is recoverable, an impairment charge is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its fair value based on discounted cash flow analysis or appraisals.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

15

 

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which amended current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our balance sheet.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

BUSINESS

 

Coro Global Inc. is a Nevada corporation formed in 2005. Since 2018, we have been in the business of financial technology, also known as Fintech. From March 2018 to January 2020 the Company was known as Hash Labs Inc., a name chosen because of the advanced distributed ledger technology we license which is called hashgraph. Effective January 9, 2020, we changed our name to Coro Global Inc. to align our company name with our primary product.

 

Our CORO Product Overview

 

We have developed and commenced commercializing a financial technology product, CORO which uses advanced distributed ledger technology for improved security, speed, and reliability. CORO is a global money transmitter that allows customers to send, receive, and exchange currencies faster, cheaper and more securely, initially consisting of the ability to send, receive and exchange U.S. dollars and gold. Our mission through CORO is to democratize access to gold as sound money. CORO makes it simple, convenient and affordable to use gold as money. The CORO mobile app was completed and released in select U.S. markets in August 2020. Following the initial commercial release, CORO has expanded into new markets and is now licensed, approved and operating in 23 U.S. states plus the District of Columbia. CORO intends to expand the release of the app throughout the U.S. in 2021. The Company will also pursue money transmission licenses in foreign countries such as Mexico and Canada.

 

We believe CORO is the world’s first global payment application that includes gold, the oldest and most trusted money. CORO technology facilitates money transmission and exchange with faster speeds, better security, and lower costs than existing options in the marketplace. An important component of the CORO payment system is our Financial Crime Risk Management (FCRM) solution. We have developed our FCRM platform, with integrated Anti-Money Laundering / Know Your Customer onboarding and transaction monitoring to provide a fully integrated compliance solution for CORO’s compliance department. The solution meets the rigorous demands of government regulators, while supporting our customers. The FCRM technology has been completed and is incorporated within the CORO mobile payment system.

 

CORO Money Transmitter Business

 

CORO is a mobile application that allows customers to send and receive USD or XAU. CORO operates on a private permissioned network which increases the level of security and compliance.

 

In order to use CORO, customers are required to pass an identity verification and stringent anti-money laundering/know-your customer check, to prevent bad actors from joining and assist in ensuring regulatory compliance. Our FCRM platform will manage onboarding, screening and monitoring of CORO’s customers.

 

CORO provides its customers with the benefits of speed, security, transparency, and ease of use, as well as the opportunity to transact in dollars or gold on the fastest distributed ledger technology (DLT) on the market.

We believe CORO is solving the following two important problems:

 

  The ability to send and receive currency faster, cheaper, more securely and across borders with ease. Current fees for sending payments from one country to another are in the double digits as a percentage of the amount being sent. CORO aims to lower the price of sending and receiving money, dramatically opening up financial services to a wider audience.

 

  The ability to use gold as money has not existed in decades. Much like physical cash is disappearing because it became inconvenient to use in modern transactions, physical gold is also not convenient for everyday transactions. We believe CORO will solve this by allowing customers to send and receive gold as money. As a registered money service business and licensed money transmitter, Coro Corp. (the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary) will be required to maintain custody accounts for U.S. dollars (USD) and gold (XAU) on behalf of its customers.

 

CORO maintains segregated custody accounts to facilitate the flow of funds. One custody account is maintained by the independent vaulting custodian for storage of users’ physical gold. The CORO users’ gold is fully insured at all times. The users’ gold account balances are represented in XAU, the International Organization of Standardization’s currency code for gold where 1 XAU is equal to 1 troy ounce of gold. A separate segregated custody account is a U.S. dollar account held at a FDIC insured U.S. Bank. U.S. dollar account balances are represented in USD, the International Organization of Standardization’s currency code for U.S. dollars.

 

Customers who download the CORO app and pass the verification process are able to:

 

  Deposit USD into their CORO account. Under this process, customers fund their CORO USD account by entering their bank information in the mobile app and authorizing the transfer of the desired amount to our U.S. banking custodian by ACH.  

 

  Exchange USD for XAU. Under this process, customers are able to exchange USD into XAU at the current XAU to USD global exchange rate minus CORO’s transaction fees. CORO processes the exchange through its gold dealer and the independent gold vaulting custodian.

 

  Exchange XAU into USD. Under this process customers are able to exchange XAU into USD at the current global XAU to USD exchange rate minus CORO’s transaction fees. CORO processes the exchange through its gold dealer and the independent gold custodian. USD received from the exchange are deposited back in CORO’s U.S. bank custody account held on behalf of the customer.

 

  XAU withdrawal. From time to time customers may wish to withdraw their gold from their CORO accounts. CORO’s customers will be able to select the amount for withdrawal, subject to a minimum of 1 XAU which equals 1 troy ounce of gold, and CORO will process the withdrawal through its gold dealer. The gold vaulting custodian will ship the physical gold directly to CORO’s customers. This feature is currently in development and expected to be released in the second half of 2021.

 

  USD withdrawal. From time to time customers may wish to withdraw their U.S. dollars from their CORO account. Customers are able to connect a U.S. bank account to their CORO account. Customers are able to transfer any or all of their U.S. dollar funds in their CORO account back to their U.S. bank account at any time. This transfer is done by ACH and is transmitted by CORO’s U.S. bank custodian.

 

We operate as a licensed money transmitter company by allowing users of our mobile app to send and receive monetary value currently in two formats: USD and XAU.

  

CORO Process

 

The CORO platform operates as follows:

 

  CORO’s distributed ledger tracks and records the movements of gold and USD between the users and increases the integrity of the system. The CORO users’ gold ownership is recorded on the ledger, which enhances the cybersecurity protecting the users’ account information and improves the ability to audit and demonstrate title of the users’ gold with the gold vaulting custodian. Both sender and receiver must enroll and complete an AML/KYC process to become users of the CORO app.

 

17

 

 

  To send USD, a user transmits from within the app to any other users of the CORO app.

 

  To send gold, if the user does not already have a XAU balance, a user first exchanges USD held in its CORO account into XAU. The user can then send XAU via the mobile app to other CORO users. CORO has engaged a gold dealer to provide gold to CORO users. When users exchange USD into gold, the gold dealer delivers the purchased amount of gold to an insured gold vaulting custodian. The corresponding USD is transmitted from the CORO custodial bank account to the gold dealer.

  

  CORO has arranged physical custody of the gold with an insured gold vault custodian. CORO manages administration and record keeping for transactions performed through the CORO app. CORO users and the gold vaulting custodian also have identical sets of the records so that in the event the Company or the app were to cease operations for any reason there is clear title documentation for CORO users to arrange delivery of their gold from the gold vaulting custodian.

 

  Coro Corp. currently acts as agent for the user in the purchase, sale and custody of the gold through the CORO app.

 

  Physical gold purchased from the gold dealer and held by the gold vaulting custodian is a custodial asset for the user’s benefit in a “bailor / bailee” relationship. The CORO user (bailor) has ownership of the gold and the gold vaulting custodian (bailee) has authorized physical possession of the gold on the bailor’s behalf.

 

  If a user decides to withdraw gold, the user will be able to send an order to the gold dealer through the CORO app. The gold vaulting custodian will ship the gold to the user’s residence. This feature is currently in development and expected to be released in the second half of 2021.

 

  If a user decides to exchange XAU into USD, the user sends an order to the gold dealer through the CORO app and the gold vaulting custodian moves the physical gold from the allocated gold custodial account to the gold dealer. At the same time, the gold dealer generates a USD transfer to the user via CORO’s USD custodial bank account.

  

Legal rights

 

CORO users will have direct ownership of their allocated gold as follows; such gold ownership will be effected contractually through bailment with the vault custodian. Bailment is the act of placing property in the custody and control of another, by an agreement in which the holder (bailee) is responsible for the safekeeping and return of the property. In bailment law, ownership and possession of the gold are split and they merge at the moment of delivery. CORO users have a bailor/bailee relationship with the custodian for the storage of their physical gold. CORO users (bailors) have ownership of the gold and the gold vault custodian (bailee) has authorized possession of the gold.

 

CORO users will only buy allocated gold with direct ownership. Gold bars are allocated and identifiable for CORO users inside independent custody vault. The gold belongs to the users and is their absolute property. This is evidenced by:

 

  Customer gold is neither an asset nor liability on Coro Corp.’s balance sheet;

 

  The gold vaulting custody agreement is under bailment;

 

  Payment of a custody fee (which has previously been decisive in proving the bailor/bailee relationship in law);

 

  User’s gold in custody is fully insured for theft or loss;

 

18

 

 

  Full allocation of CORO users’ property is documented each day by daily reconciliation and verified by the monthly custodial audit and quarterly independent 3rd-party audit;

 

  All transactions and users’ balances are recorded on a distributed ledger which improves accuracy, transparency and security; and

 

  CORO users can monitor the total value and weight of gold they own on the CORO mobile app in real time.

 

CORO Gold Ownership

 

When a CORO customer purchases gold through the CORO mobile payment application, the CORO user becomes the legal owner of the gold. CORO instantly routes gold purchase transactions through a gold dealer. Within the CORO app, customers’ U.S. dollars are exchanged for an equivalent amount of gold at the prevailing spot rate. CORO’s spot rate is derived from a number of gold market sources including but not limited to, our gold dealer the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, or CME and the LBMA. The CORO spot rate also includes our spread. Gold purchased by the customer is identified and evidenced by a serial number, or otherwise identified and evidenced with a specific identifier in accordance with the methods used by the auditors of the independent gold vaulting custodian, such as with SKUs/bar codes, and then allocated within CORO’s custody account with the independent gold vaulting custodian. The independent vaulting custodian maintains a bailment arrangement with CORO’s customers, so that the customers have direct ownership of their gold at all times. Our CORO customers’ gold is fully insured by the vaulting custodian. The vaulting custodian will have a daily record of each customer’s gold holdings. Allocated gold is, by definition, unencumbered. In the event of Coro Global Inc. or Coro Corp.’s dissolution or failure, CORO’s customers would not risk becoming creditors of the Company since their ownership of their gold is direct. Coro Corp. through the CORO app and the independent vaulting custodian maintain an inventory list of the allocated customer gold which is updated in real time and reconciled daily. The CORO user’s gold inventory will be physically counted weekly and audited by an independent auditor of the independent gold vaulting custodian on a quarterly basis. The customer’s gold ownership is also recorded, confirmed and evidenced on CORO’s accounting ledger and shared with the independent vaulting custodian. Coro Corp. and the gold vaulting custodian have the right of substitution within the allocated gold. Right of substitution means that when a customer withdraws their gold, Coro Corp. and the gold vaulting custodian may choose which gold to provide the customer, thus the serial number at purchase may be different than the serial number at withdrawal. Right of substitution makes the logistics of gold storage, deposit and withdrawal more pragmatic and is the primary method used for the independent safe custody of all commodities.

   

Government Regulation

 

In the United States, money transmission activities are strictly regulated both at the federal level by FinCEN and at the state level by financial institution regulators. Registration with FinCEN is mandatory for all money transmitters and state regulators impose strict requirements to obtain and maintain a license to operate in their jurisdictions. In addition, state regulations covering money transmission provide enhanced protections for the consumers in case of fraud or bankruptcy and require regular examination and review of licensees’ activities.

 

Coro Corp. is registered with and regulated by FinCEN, a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. FinCEN regulates Coro Corp. as both a money services business, or MSB, and a Dealer in Precious Metals. As a regulated financial institution, Coro Corp. must assess the money laundering risk involved in its transactions, and implement an anti-money laundering program to mitigate such risk. In addition, we must comply with recordkeeping, reporting, and transaction monitoring requirements under FinCEN regulations. 

 

As a registered money services business, Coro Corp. is required to be licensed in the states where it operates. Coro Corp. is in the process of obtaining individual money transmission licenses state-by-state in the jurisdictions where it plans to provide its services. To date, we have been licensed to operate CORO in the following U.S. states and jurisdictions Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, Delaware, Idaho, Iowa, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Washington, Washington D.C., and Wisconsin. We have launched CORO in the above-mentioned U.S. states and jurisdictions.

 

19

 

 

In addition to an application process that includes providing a detailed business plan and criminal and financial background check on all officers and controlling parties of the applying company, licensed money transmitters are subjected to strict requirements such as providing annual audited financial statements, filing quarterly reports, and maintaining at all times a minimum net worth and a surety bond approved by the state’s Commissioner. Due to its main office being located in the State of Florida, Coro Corp. filed an initial application for Money Transmitter license (FT2) with the Florida Office of Financial Regulations on October 4, 2019 and obtained its license on March 18, 2020. Since then, Coro Corp. has filed money transmitter license applications in 31 additional states, some of which are still under review by the respective state banking departments. We anticipate that we will receive nationwide money transmitter licensure to operate CORO by the end of 2021.  

 

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) does not regulate Coro Corp. because Coro Corp. only transacts with physical gold in the spot market when buying or selling gold for its customers. The Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) grants the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over the regulation of futures contracts, option contracts and leverage contracts, but this authority specifically does not extend to “deferred” or “forward” delivery contracts which are essentially “cash transactions providing for later delivery of the underlying commodity.”

 

To prevent fraud and illegal activities at our money transmission business, we do the following:

 

  Ensure that no accounts for prospective customers are activated until each new customer has undergone comprehensive AML/KYC screening;

 

  Conduct routine security audits of our DLT environment; and

 

  Implement other security measures, as necessary, to further support our diligence in this regard.

 

CORO Revenue Model

 

Customers of the CORO product are or will be charged (i) a 0.5% annual custody and storage fee on their XAU balances, (ii) a 0.5% fee to exchange USD for XAU or exchange XAU for USD, (iii) a 0.5% fee for sending XAU to other CORO customers (which fee we waived through 2020 and may waive through the remainder of 2021) and (iv) a 0.5% fee to exchange XAU for delivery of physical gold (when we commence providing this service, which we have not yet done) . We collect and charge or, with respect to the fee for sending XAU to other CORO customers and the fee delivery of physical gold, anticipate that we will collect and charge such fees from CORO customers.

  

CORO Business Milestones

 

We began development of the CORO mobile application, database, infrastructure and the associated distributed private permissioned DLT network, in September of 2018. Following nearly two years of design, development and testing the CORO mobile application and DLT powered gold payment system was completed and released to the public on August 5, 2020. Having completed the commercial release of CORO, the Company has established new milestones for 2021. These milestones include: 1.) implementation of the digital marketing and customer acquisition program; 2.) continuously improving CORO app performance, functionality and user experience; and 3.) acceleration of the state money transmission licensure program in the U.S. to achieve nationwide licensure, as well as filing money transmission license applications with regulators in Mexico and Canada;

 

We have relied and continue to rely upon both employees and contractors. CORO’s commercialization and continued enhancement is being led by David Dorr, the Founder and recently appointed CEO of the Company, and Brian Dorr, the Co-founder and recently appointed COO of the Company. They will continue the coordination of our technology development resources and team of consultants. We intend to increase our technology development team during 2021, as we continue to improve the functionality and performance of the CORO mobile application.

 

As of January 22, 2021 the CORO app has had 6,372 downloads of which 875 have become verified users. There are 5,373 individuals on our waiting list in states where we are pending approval of our money transmission licenses. Upon our receipt of money transmission licenses in those states, these individuals will then have the opportunity to become verified users.

Hashgraph License

 

CORO is built on a new generation of DLT utilizing the Hashgraph consensus algorithm, (“Hashgraph”). We believe Hashgraph is superior to the current generation of DLT. Hashgraph is owned by Swirlds, Inc., (“Swirlds”). In July 2020, we entered into an amended and restated software license agreement with Swirlds to license Hashgraph.

 

DLT is disrupting and transforming existing markets in multiple industries. However, we believe there are four fundamental obstacles to be overcome before DLT can be widely accepted and adopted across every industry and geography. These obstacles are:

 

Performance: The technology is built on Hashgraph, which provides near-perfect efficiency in bandwidth usage and consequently can process upwards of 500,000 transactions per second. To put the speed of our network in perspective, Visa’s network handles an estimated 35,000 transactions per second.

 

Security: Hashgraph achieves the highest standard for security in the field of distributed consensus: asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerance (aBFT). Other networks that use coordinators, leaders, or communication timeouts tend to be vulnerable to Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks against those vulnerable areas. Hashgraph is resilient to these types of attacks and achieves the theoretical limits of security. Achieving this level of security at scale is a fundamental advance in the field of distributed systems as it is the gold standard for security in this category.

 

Regulatory Compliance: The Hashgraph technical framework includes an Opt-In Escrow Identity mechanism that gives customers a choice to bind verified identities to otherwise anonymous accounts, which is designed to provide governments with the oversight necessary to ensure regulatory compliance. This is optional, and each user will be able to decide what kinds of credentials, if any, to reveal.

 

Hashgraph accomplishes being fair, fast, efficient, inexpensive, timestamped, and DDoS resistant.

 

Our Hashgraph private-permissioned network provides the strongest foundation for CORO. We believe it will enable the CORO product to achieve unprecedented speed with fractional cost per transaction, all while maintaining or exceeding current bank-grade security.

 

Intellectual Property

 

In addition to our right to the use of Hashgraph as discussed above, our intellectual property currently includes our trademark “CORO” for a mobile application for certain financial and computer software services. We have a pending trademark registration application for “CORO” in the United States and several additional countries.

 

Marketing, Communications and Growth Strategy    

 

During the first half of 2020 we made a significant investment of time and resources in completion of a comprehensive growth strategy for marketing, communications and customer acquisition. Our strategy follows a growth marketing approach, with rapid experimentation across marketing channels and product development paths to determine the most effective and sustainable way to acquire and retain customers. Our go-to market strategy fuses data analysis and behavioral research to identify key customer segments. Under this strategy, user experience/user interface design optimization, highly targeted advertising, thought leadership, and PR tactics are implemented to acquire customers efficiently and build trust, which is our main brand pillar. Our growth plan was divided into 2 main stages – the pre-commercial launch stage and the post-launch stage. Our pre-launch stage was dedicated to garnering interest and enthusiasm from prospective CORO customers via digital marketing efforts. We have now embarked upon the post-launch stage, which is divided into traction, transition and growth sub-stages. During the traction sub-stage which we are now in, we are simply building momentum for growth.

 

21

 

 

We are focusing on finding product/market fit and growing our brand. Finding product/market fit means that we are getting early users, gathering their feedback and optimizing our product based on that feedback. Once we see signs that our business has gained market share and mindshare from our target audience we will scale our efforts and move into the transition sub-stage. During the transition sub-stage, we will take the information we gathered during traction and build up towards growth mode.

 

We will optimize and scale marketing channels that work for us. We will optimize customer acquisition costs and gain more insights into their lifetime value. We will also focus on scaling our marketing team. When we enter the growth sub-stage, we will be ready to deploy our growth engine and prove that it works. Our goal here will be to maximize our value proposition and achieve exponential growth.

 

Using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, we conducted extensive research and discovery to set success metrics, recognize future growth initiatives, develop audience profiles, and assess the competition landscape and market conditions.

 

Under our marketing and sales strategy, we have taken the following steps:

 

  Engaged specialized branding, media, web design, and digital marketing agencies to work in synchrony with the in-house marketing team;

 

  Designed a visual identity that can be easily activated across a variety of digital and media touchpoints;

 

  Developed a website to serve as an education resource for media, influencers and general public and as a point of entry for customers; and

 

  Developed integrated launch and growth marketing campaigns to reach key audiences for awareness and demand for the product.

 

Employees

 

As of January 22, 2021, we have 2 full-time employees and retain approximately 16 consultants. We consider our relationship with our employees and consultants to be good.

 

Properties

 

We sub-lease, on a month-to-month basis under an arrangement with Brickell 21 Financial Centre, office space located at 1200 Brickell Avenue, Suite 310, Miami, FL 33131. Our current monthly rent is approximately $1,200. We believe these facilities are suitable and adequate to meet our current business requirements.

  

Legal Proceedings

 

We are not party to any material legal proceedings, and our property is not the subject of any material legal proceedings.

Under Mr. Goode’s employment agreement as in effect on December 31, 2018, after one year of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, we agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; after two years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, we agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; and after three years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, we agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance. As of December 31, 2018, we accrued $300,995 in accordance with ASC 718-10-55-65 for the portion earned as the terms of such an award do not establish an ownership relationship because the extent to which (or whether) the employee benefits from the award depends on something other than changes in the entity’s share price. Therefore, the awards should be accounted for as a liability award. ASC 718 requires that public companies measure share-based awards classified as liabilities at fair value at each reporting date. In accordance with 718-30-35-3, a public entity shall measure a liability award under a share-based payment arrangement based on the award’s fair value re-measured at each reporting date until the date of settlement. Compensation cost for each period until settlement shall be based on the change (or a portion of the change, depending on the percentage of the requisite service that has been rendered at the reporting date) in the fair value of the instrument for each reporting period. Through May 31, 2019, the date Mr. Goode’s employment agreement was amended as discussed below, the Company recorded an additional expense of $1,861,170.

 

(3) On May 31, 2019, we recorded the reclassification of the derivative liability of $2,162,408 for the issuance of these share to additional paid in capital and common stock. We recorded $687,246 for the additional value of the common stock for the vesting of the award during the year ended December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, the unvested amount of the awards was $900,598. During the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company recorded an expense of $729,305.

 

(4) On June 22, 2020, the Company issued to Niquana Noel, the Company’s then-Chief Operating Officer, for services provided, six-month warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $0.01. The warrants were exercised and the Company recognized an expense of $249,500 ($5.00 per share), the fair value for our common stock. Ms. Noel resigned as our Chief Operating Officer effective December 31, 2020.

As of January 25, 2021, a total of 25,413,746 shares of our common stock and 0 shares of our preferred stock were issued and outstanding.

 

Common Stock

 

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders of the Company’s common stock representing a majority of the voting power of the Company’s capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation.

 

Holders of our common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The Company’s common stock has no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no withdrawal provisions applicable to the Company’s common stock. 

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, in one or more series, subject to any limitations prescribed by law, without further vote or action by the stockholders. Each such series of preferred stock shall have such number of shares, designations, preferences, voting powers, qualifications, and special or relative rights or privileges as shall be determined by our board of directors, which may include, among others, dividend rights, voting rights, liquidation preferences, conversion rights and preemptive rights.

UNDERWRITING

 

Maxim Group LLC is acting as representative of the underwriters of the offering. We have entered into an underwriting agreement dated          , 2021 with the representative. Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, we have agreed to sell to each underwriter named below, and each underwriter named below has severally agreed to purchase, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, the number of shares of common stock listed next to its name in the following table:

 

Underwriter   Number of Shares  
Maxim Group LLC              
Total        

 

The underwriters are committed to purchase all the shares offered by us, other than those covered by the over-allotment option to purchase additional shares described below, if they purchase any shares. The obligations of the underwriters may be terminated upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the underwriting agreement. Furthermore, pursuant to the underwriting agreement, the underwriters’ obligations are subject to customary conditions, representations and warranties contained in the underwriting agreement, such as receipt by the underwriters of officers’ certificates and legal opinions. 

 

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

 

The underwriters are offering the shares subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by their counsel and other conditions specified in the underwriting agreement. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

 

We have granted the underwriters an over-allotment option. This option, which is exercisable for up to 45 days after the date of this prospectus, permits the underwriters to purchase up to an aggregate of additional shares of common stock (equal to 15% of the common stock sold in the offering), at the public offering price per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions, solely to cover over-allotments, if any. If this option is exercised in full, the total price to the public will be $    and the total net proceeds, before expenses, to us will be $     .

 

Discounts, Commissions and Reimbursement

 

The following table shows the public offering price, underwriting discount and proceeds, before expenses, to us. The information assumes either no exercise or full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option.

 

    Per Share     Total with no
Over-Allotment
    Total with
Over-Allotment
 
Public offering price   $                 $                $              
Underwriting discount (7%)(1)   $     $     $  
Proceeds, before expenses, to us   $     $     $  

 

(1) The underwriting discount will be 7%, except that the underwriting discount will be 3.5% with respect to investors introduced by the Company.

 

The underwriters propose to offer the shares to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus. In addition, the underwriters may offer some of the shares to other securities dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of $ per share. If all of the shares offered by us are not sold at the public offering price, the representative may change the offering price and other selling terms by means of a supplement to this prospectus.

 

We have also agreed to pay up to $100,000 of expenses of the representative relating to the offering, including for road show, diligence, and legal expenses. 

 

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding the total underwriting discount , will be approximately $400,000.

Discretionary Accounts

 

The underwriters do not intend to confirm sales of the securities offered hereby to any accounts over which they have discretionary authority.

 

Lock-Up Agreements

 

Pursuant to “lock-up” agreements, our executive officers and directors and holders of 3% or more our outstanding common stock, have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, without the prior written consent of the representative not to directly or indirectly offer to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the transfer or disposition by any person at any time in the future of) our common stock, enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of our common stock, make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or any of our other securities or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, subject to customary exceptions, for a period of four months.

 

Right of First Refusal

 

We have granted the representative a right of first refusal, for a period of 18 months from the consummation of this offering, to act as lead managing underwriter and book runner or minimally as a co-lead manager and co-book runner and/or co-lead placement agent with at least 80% of the economics for any and all future public or private equity, equity-linked or debt (excluding commercial bank debt) offerings during such 18 month period of the Company, including but not limited to, fees to be paid to the representative, that are (a) at a minimum equal to or better than the terms mutually agreed upon in the underwriting agreement or (b) equal to or better than the terms offered in writing by another investment bank.

 

Upon termination or expiration of our engagement agreement with the representative, unless the Company terminates such agreement for “Cause,” if the Company subsequently completes any public or private financing at any time during the 18 months after such termination with any investors contacted by the representative in connection with the offering (the “Maxim Contacted Investors”), then the representative shall be entitled to receive the compensation as set forth herein, provided that such Maxim Contacted Investors (a) do not have a prior existing business relationship with the Company, its directors or officers, and (b) were not contacted by the Company prior to having been contacted by the representative.

 

Electronic Offer, Sale and Distribution of Securities

 

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by one or more of the underwriters or selling group members. The representative may agree to allocate a number of securities to underwriters and selling group members for sale to its online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the underwriters and selling group members that will make internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on these websites is not part of, nor incorporated by reference into, this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved or endorsed by us, and should not be relied upon by investors.

 

Stabilization

 

In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in stabilizing transactions, over-allotment transactions, syndicate-covering transactions, penalty bids and purchases to cover positions created by short sales.

 

32

 

 

Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase shares so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum, and are engaged in for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the shares while the offering is in progress.

 

Over-allotment transactions involve sales by the underwriters of shares in excess of the number of shares the underwriters are obligated to purchase. This creates a syndicate short position which may be either a covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short position, the number of shares over-allotted by the underwriters is not greater than the number of shares that they may purchase in the over-allotment option. In a naked short position, the number of shares involved is greater than the number of shares in the over-allotment option. The underwriters may close out any short position by exercising their over-allotment option and/or purchasing shares in the open market.

 

Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of shares in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. In determining the source of shares to close out the short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared with the price at which they may purchase shares through exercise of the over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more shares than could be covered by exercise of the over-allotment option and, therefore, have a naked short position, the position can be closed out only by buying shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that after pricing there could be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

 

Penalty bids permit the representative to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the shares originally sold by that syndicate member are purchased in stabilizing or syndicate covering transactions to cover syndicate short positions.

 

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our shares of common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our shares of common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock in the open market may be higher than it would otherwise be in the absence of these transactions. Neither we nor the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

 

Passive market making

 

In connection with this offering, underwriters and selling group members may engage in passive market making transactions in our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act, during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of the shares and extending through the completion of the distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, then that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded.

 

Other Relationships

 

Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates may in the future provide various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates for which they may receive customary fees.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For The Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 — BUSINESS, GOING CONCERN AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Coro Global Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on April 13, 2020. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and which are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2020, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. 

 

Principle of Consolidation

 

The accompanying financial statements present on a consolidated basis the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Coro Corp., which was organized in the State of Nevada on September 14, 2018.

 

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Nature of Business Operations

 

Coro Global Inc. is a Nevada corporation that was originally formed on November 1, 2005. On September 14, 2018 the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Coro Corp. The Company is focused on dynamic global growth opportunities in the financial technology (Fintech) industry. Effective January 9, 2020, the Company changed its name to Coro Global Inc. The Company has developed a Fintech product that uses advanced distributed ledger technology for improved security, speed, and reliability. In August 2020 the Company released its CORO payment product and commenced its commercialization.

 

Covid-19 Pandemic

 

The Company’s operations have been materially and adversely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. The Company is located in Dade County, Florida which was subject to a “stay at home” order effective March 26, 2020, and which was lifted effective May 20, 2020. The effect of Covid-19 on the business, has since been limited to experiencing delays in obtaining registrations and/or licenses from various state governmental agencies due to staff being temporarily suspended or working remotely.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company reported a net loss of $4,128,438 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and has an accumulated deficit of $43,254,249 as of September 30, 2020. The operating losses raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We will need to raise additional capital in order to continue operations. The Company’s ability to obtain additional financing may be affected by the success of its growth strategy and its future performance, each of which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond the Company’s control. Additional capital may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms.

 

F-6

 

 

Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail or cease our operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of these financial statements, cash and cash equivalents includes highly liquid debt instruments with maturity of less than three months.

 

Restricted cash are funds that belong to the Company’s clients and is held at financial institutions.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Currently our operating accounts are approximately $838,292 above the FDIC limit.

 

Advertising

 

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. The Company incurred $69,471, $194,852, $0 and $0, respectively for advertising costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

 

The Company follows the accounting guidance which provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized initially and in subsequent periods. Also included is guidance on measurement, recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives being 3 years up to 5 years.

 

Asset Category   Depreciation/
Amortization
Period
 
Computer equipment     5 Years  
Computer software     3 Years  

 

Computer and equipment costs consisted of the following:

 

    September 30,
2020
    December 31,
2019
 
Computer equipment   $ 12,477     $ 9,964  
Accumulated depreciation     (3,746 )     (2,242 )
Balance   $ 8,731     $ 7,722  

 

Depreciation expense was $508, and $499 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Depreciation expense was $1,504, and $1,486 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification. The updated guidance states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also provides for additional disclosures with respect to revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The standard was effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and the Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Cash and Equivalents, Deposits In-Transit, Receivables, Prepaid and Other Current Assets, Accounts Payable, Accrued Salaries and Wages and Other Current Liabilities.

 

The carrying amounts of these items approximated fair value.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 820-10-35 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements).

  

Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

 

F-8

 

 

Level 2—Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3—Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

 

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. ASC 360-10 relates to assets that can be amortized and the life can be determinable. The Company reviews property and equipment and other long-lived assets for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the asset’s carrying amount to future undiscounted net cash flows the assets are expected to generate. Cash flow forecasts are based on trends of historical performance and management’s estimate of future performance, giving consideration to existing and anticipated competitive and economic conditions. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the projected discounted future cash flows arising from the assets or their fair values, whichever is more determinable.

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which amended current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our balance sheet.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Basic and diluted loss per share amounts are computed based on net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Convertible shares, if converted, totalling 0 were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the assumed conversion and exercise would be anti-dilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

 

Management Estimates

 

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for employee compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company accounts for nonemployee compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the earlier of a commitment date or completion of services based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the measurement date.

Reclassifications

 

Certain 2020 balances have been reclassified in the 2019 financial statement presentation. The reclassification of accrued interest did not have any effect on the financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

 

2. DEFERRED STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - RELATED PARTY

 

Effective May 18, 2018, the Company appointed J. Mark Goode as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. He was also appointed a member and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

The Company entered into an employment agreement on May 18, 2018 with Mr. Goode, which provides for an annual salary and certain other benefits. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Goode’s annual base salary is $96,000, which may increase to up to $216,000 upon Mr. Goode meeting certain milestones set forth in the employment agreement related to the Company’s performance and is subject to increases as set from time to time by the Board. Upon the execution of the employment agreement, Mr. Goode received 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company valued at $1,250,000 ($2.50 per share). Pursuant to the initial terms of the employment agreement, after one year of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; after two years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; and after three years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance. As of December 31, 2018 the Company accrued $300,995 in accordance with ASC 718-10-55-65 for the portion earned as the terms of such an award do not establish an ownership relationship because the extent to which (or whether) the employee benefits from the award depends on something other than changes in the entity’s share price. Therefore, the awards should be accounted for as a liability award. ASC 718 requires that public companies measure share-based awards classified as liabilities at fair value at each reporting date. In accordance with 718-30-35-3, a public entity shall measure a liability award under a share-based payment arrangement based on the award’s fair value re-measured at each reporting date until the date of settlement. Compensation cost for each period until settlement shall be based on the change (or a portion of the change, depending on the percentage of the requisite service that has been rendered at the reporting date) in the fair value of the instrument for each reporting period.

 

On May 31, 2019, the Company entered into amendment no. 1 to the Company’s employment agreement with Mr. Goode. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company’s obligation to issue additional shares of common stock as compensation to Mr. Goode was amended, such that, the Company issued to Mr. Goode and his designee 750,000 shares of common stock upon execution of the amendment, and the Company will have no further obligation to issue to Mr. Goode shares under the employment agreement. Mr. Goode would have been or will be required to return such 750,000 shares to the Company as follows:

 

  Mr. Goode would have been required to return 500,000 of such shares to the Company if he was not serving as chief executive officer of the Company pursuant to the employment agreement as of May 17, 2020 (the second anniversary of the agreement); and

 

  Mr. Goode will return 250,000 of such shares to the Company if he is not serving as chief executive officer of the Company pursuant to the employment agreement as of May 17, 2021 (the third anniversary of the agreement).

On May 31, 2019 the Company recorded the reclassification of the derivative liability of $2,162,408 for the issuance of these share to additional paid in capital and common stock. The Company recorded $622,057 for the additional value of the common stock for the vesting of the award. As of September 30, 2020 the unvested amount of the awards was $278,483.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, 500,000 shares of Mr. Goode common stock vested. The remaining 250,000 shares issued to Mr. Goode under his employment agreement remain subject to forfeiture.

 

3. NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY

 

On July 15, 2016, the Company issued a 7% promissory note to a significant shareholder in the principal amount of $100,000. The note had an initial one-year term. On April 9, 2019, the maturity date of the note was extended to June 30, 2019. On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with The Vantage Group Ltd. (“Vantage”), which held the note, pursuant to which Vantage exchanged a portion of this note, in the amount of $50,000, for 10,000 newly issued shares of common stock of the Company. The Company repaid the remaining balance of $50,000. Vantage is owned by Lyle Hauser, formerly the Company’s largest stockholder.

On April 7, 2020, the maturity date of outstanding notes held by Lyle Hauser, consisting of (i) a promissory note, dated on or about January 14, 2019, in the original principal amount of $70,384, as amended by amendment No. 1 thereto, dated April 9, 2019, amendment No. 2 thereto, dated July 3, 2019, amendment No. 3 thereto, dated October 1, 2019, and amendment no. 4 thereto, dated January 17, 2020; and (ii) an original issue discount promissory note, dated on or about February 28, 2019, in the original principal amount of $110,000 (of which $100,000 had been repaid, leaving an outstanding balance of $10,000), as amended by amendment No. 1 thereto, dated April 9, 2019, amendment No. 2 thereto, dated July 3, 2019, amendment No. 3 thereto, dated October 1, 2019, and amendment No. 4 thereto, dated January 17, 2020, was extended to June 30, 2020. In consideration for the extension of the maturity date of the notes, the Company issued to the designee of Lyle Hauser 33,000 shares of common stock. From April 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020, the Company repaid $73,382 of the notes due to Lyle Hauser. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the note dated January 14, 2019 had a balance of $0 and accrued interest of $5,438. On July 27, 2020 the maturity date of the note dated January 14, 2019 was extended to September 30, 2020.

 

On February 28, 2019, the Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $110,000 to Lyle Hauser with an original issue discount of $10,000, for a purchase price of $100,000. The note has a 0% interest rate until maturity and had an original maturity date of March 31, 2019, which was extended to June 30, 2020. Following the maturity date, the note would bear a 9% annual interest rate until paid in full. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 the Company repaid a total of $110,000. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the note had a balance of $0 and $110,000, respectively.

 

The Company evaluated the modification under ASC 470-50 and concluded the deletion of the conversion qualifies for debt modification which triggered debt extinguishment; however, there was no impact to the income statement as there was no unamortized discounts or other fees paid on the under the prior debt terms.

4. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

In September 2017, the Company entered into and closed an asset purchase agreement with Vantage.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In December 2018, we entered into a software license agreement with Swirlds to license Hashgraph for the Coro platform, and on June 23, 2020, the agreement was amended and restated (as amended, the “Swirlds Agreement”). Pursuant to the Swirlds Agreement, the Company extended its license from Swirlds of Hashgraph technology for use in the Company’s Coro payment platform. The term and fees of such license will be as set forth in any applicable order form. In connection with the Swirlds Agreement, the Company and Swirlds executed an order form (the “Order Form”), which amends, restates and supersedes the order form between the Company and Swirlds dated December 13, 2018, whereby the Company will license 15 nodes from Swirlds, at a license fee of $15,000 per node, for a term of one (1) year, for a license fee of $225,000. Pursuant to the Order Form, the license of the nodes will automatically renew for additional one (1) year terms unless and until either party terminates the Swirlds Agreement or provides notice of non-renewal of the license then in effect. Should the license for any of the foregoing 15 nodes renew for any additional year, the license fee per node will drop to $3,000 per node per year.

 

Additionally, pursuant to the Order Form, the Company will pay Swirlds quarterly fees based on the aggregate value of all transaction fees the Company collects in that quarter from customers whose transactions were processed on the Coro payment platform using Swirld’s Hashgraph algorithm. The Company will also pay quarterly network transaction fees on all transactions (other than transactions for fiat), that are conducted by a Coro network user. If such quarterly network transaction fees equal less than $5,000, the Company will pay Swirlds $5,000 for that quarter.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Coro Global Inc. (formerly Hash Labs, Inc.)

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Coro Global Inc, (former Hash Labs, Inc.) and its subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern Matter

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Coro Global Inc.

(Formerly known as Hash Labs Inc.)

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements

For The Years Ended December 31, 2019 and 2018

 

NOTE 1 — BUSINESS, GOING CONCERN AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements present the balance sheets, statements of operations, changes in stockholder’s deficit and cash flows of the Company. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

Principle of Consolidation

 

The accompanying financial statements present on a consolidated basis the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Coro Corp., which was organized in the State of Nevada on September 14, 2018.

 

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Nature of Business Operations

 

Coro Global Inc. is a Nevada corporation formed in 2005. Since 2018, we have been in the business of financial technology, also known as Fintech. From March 2018 to January 2020 the Company was known as Hash Labs Inc., a name chosen because of the advanced distributed ledger technology we license which is called hashgraph. Effective January 9, 2020, we changed our name to Coro Global Inc. to align our company name with our primary product.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company reported a net loss of $4,850,379 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The operating losses raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We will need to raise additional capital in order to continue operations. The Company’s ability to obtain additional financing may be affected by the success of its growth strategy and its future performance, each of which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond the Company’s control. Additional capital may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms.

 

Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail or cease our operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

 

F-20

 

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of these financial statements, cash and cash equivalents includes highly liquid debt instruments with maturity of less than three months.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Currently our operating accounts are approximately $8,000 above the FDIC limit.

 

Advertising

 

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. The Company incurred $8,994 and $0, respectively for advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

 

The Company follows the accounting guidance which provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized initially and in subsequent periods. Also included is guidance on measurement, recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives being 3 years up to 5 years.

 

Asset Category   Depreciation/ Amortization Period
Computer equipment   5 Years
Computer software   3 Years

 

F-21

 

 

Computer and equipment costs consisted of the following:

 

    December 31,
2019
    December 31,
2018
 
             
Computer equipment   $ 9,964     $ 9,964  
Accumulated depreciation     (2,242 )     (249 )
Balance   $ 7,722     $ 9,715  

 

Depreciation expense was $1,993 and $249, respectively for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification. The updated guidance states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also provides for additional disclosures with respect to revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The standard will be effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and the Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Cash and Equivalents, Deposits In-Transit, Receivables, Prepaid and Other Current Assets, Accounts Payable, Accrued Salaries and Wages and Other Current Liabilities.

 

The carrying amounts of these items approximated fair value.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 820-10-35 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements).

  

Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2—Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3—Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

  

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. ASC 360-10 relates to assets that can be amortized and the life can be determinable. The Company reviews property and equipment and other long-lived assets for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the asset’s carrying amount to future undiscounted net cash flows the assets are expected to generate. Cash flow forecasts are based on trends of historical performance and management’s estimate of future performance, giving consideration to existing and anticipated competitive and economic conditions. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the projected discounted future cash flows arising from the assets or their fair values, whichever is more determinable.

 

F-22

 

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which amended current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our balance sheet.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Basic and diluted loss per share amounts are computed based on net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Convertible shares, if converted, totaling 0 and 145,712,968 common shares, respectively were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the assumed conversion and exercise would be anti-dilutive for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

Management Estimates

 

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for employee compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company accounts for nonemployee compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the earlier of a commitment date or completion of services based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the measurement date.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain 2018 balances have been reclassified in the 2019 financial statement presentation. The reclassification of accrued interest did not have any effect on the financial statements.

  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

2. DEFERRED STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - RELATED PARTY

 

Effective May 18, 2018, the Company appointed J. Mark Goode as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. He was also appointed a member and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

The Company entered into an employment agreement on May 18, 2018 with Mr. Goode, which provides for an annual salary and certain other benefits. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Goode’s annual base salary is $96,000, which may increase to up to $216,000 upon Mr. Goode meeting certain milestones set forth in the employment agreement related to the Company’s performance and is subject to increases as set from time to time by the Board. Upon the execution of the employment agreement, Mr. Goode received 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company valued at $1,250,000 ($2.50 per share). Pursuant to the initial terms of the employment agreement, after one year of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; after two years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; and after three years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance. As of December 31, 2018 the Company accrued $300,995 in accordance with ASC 718-10-55-65 for the portion earned as the terms of such an award do not establish an ownership relationship because the extent to which (or whether) the employee benefits from the award depends on something other than changes in the entity’s share price. Therefore, the awards should be accounted for as a liability award. ASC 718 requires that public companies measure share-based awards classified as liabilities at fair value at each reporting date. In accordance with 718-30-35-3, a public entity shall measure a liability award under a share-based payment arrangement based on the award’s fair value re-measured at each reporting date until the date of settlement. Compensation cost for each period until settlement shall be based on the change (or a portion of the change, depending on the percentage of the requisite service that has been rendered at the reporting date) in the fair value of the instrument for each reporting period.

 

On May 31, 2019, the Company entered into amendment no. 1 to the Company’s employment agreement with Mr. Goode. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company’s obligation to issue additional shares of common stock as compensation to Mr. Goode was amended, such that, the Company issued to Mr. Goode and his designee 750,000 shares of common stock upon execution of the amendment, and the Company will have no further obligation to issue to Mr. Goode shares under the employment agreement. The shares will be expensed over the term of the employment agreement. Mr. Goode will be required to return such 750,000 shares to the Company as follows:

 

  Mr. Goode will return 500,000 of such shares to the Company if he is not serving as Chief Executive Officer of the Company pursuant to the employment agreement as of May 17, 2020 (the second anniversary of the agreement); and

 

  Mr. Goode will return 250,000 of such shares to the Company if he is not serving as o of the Company pursuant to the employment agreement as of May 17, 2021 (the third anniversary of the agreement).

 

On May 31, 2019 the Company recorded the reclassification of the derivative liability of $2,162,408 for the issuance of these share to additional paid in capital and common stock. The Company recorded $687,003 for the additional value of the common stock for the vesting of the award during the year ended December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019 the unvested amount of the awards was $900,598.

3. NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY

 

On July 15, 2016, the Company issued a 7% promissory note to a significant shareholder in the principal amount of $100,000. The note had an initial one-year term. On April 9, 2019, the maturity date of the note was extended to June 30, 2019.  On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with The Vantage Group Ltd. (“Vantage”), which held the note, pursuant to which Vantage exchanged a portion of this note, in the amount of $50,000, for 10,000 newly issued shares of common stock of the Company. The Company repaid the remaining balance of $50,000. Vantage is owned by Lyle Hauser, an adviser to the Company and its then-largest stockholder.

  

The changes in this note payable to related party are reflected in the following at December 31, 2019 and 2018:

On January 14, 2019, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with Lyle Hauser. Pursuant to the exchange agreement, Mr. Hauser exchanged an outstanding convertible promissory note of the Company in the aggregate amount of $70,382 (including accrued interest) held by Mr. Hauser for a new non-convertible promissory note of the Company in the principal amount of $70,382. The new note had an original maturity date of March 31, 2019, which has been extended to June 30, 2020 (see Note 10), and bears interest at the rate of 7% per year, due upon maturity. As of December 31, 2019, the note had a balance of $70,382 and accrued interest of $5,438.

 

On January 14, 2019 the Company entered into an exchange agreement with Vantage. Pursuant to the exchange agreement, Vantage exchanged the remaining amount due on a convertible promissory note of the Company, equal to $17,780 (including accrued interest) held by Vantage for a new non-convertible promissory note of the Company in the principal amount of $17,780.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company repaid $3,220 to the then-CEO, and borrowed an additional $75. During the year ended December 31, 2018 the remaining amount of $3,145 was repaid. The advances carried a 0% interest rate and were to be repaid when funds were available.

 

 The Company evaluated the modification under ASC 470-50 and concluded the deletion of the conversion qualifies for debt modification which triggered debt extinguishment; however, there was no impact to the income statement as there was no unamortized discounts or other fees paid on the under the prior debt terms.

 

4. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

In September 2017, the Company entered into and closed an asset purchase agreement with Vantage.

6. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The Company assesses the fair value of the convertible debenture using the Black Scholes pricing model and records a derivative liability for the value. The Company then assesses the fair value quarterly based on the Black Scholes Model and increases or decreases the liability to the new value and records a corresponding gain or loss (see below for variables used in assessing the fair value).

 

Due to the variable conversion rates, the Company treats the convertible debenture as a derivative liability in accordance with the provisions of ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (ASC 815). ASC 815 applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative and to any freestanding financial instruments that potentially settle in an entity’s own common stock. The fair value of the conversion options was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and the following significant assumptions during the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

    December 31,
2018
 
Risk-free interest rate at grant date     0.45 %
Expected stock price volatility     244 %
Expected dividend payout     -  
Expected option in life-years     1  

 

The change in fair value of the conversion option derivative liability consisted of the following during the year ended December 31, 2018:

 

    December 31,
2018
 
Conversion option liability (beginning balance)   $ 19,406  
Reclassification to additional paid in capital     (25,494 )
Loss on changes in fair market value of conversion option liability     6,088  
Net conversion option liability   $ -

F-29

 

 

FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management has determined that a full valuation allowance of $5,514,632 and $4,966,666 against its net deferred taxes is necessary as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The change in valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 is $547,966 and $1,191,315, respectively.

 

At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, the Company had approximately $21,758,000 and $19,956,000, respectively, of U.S. net operating loss carryforwards remaining.

 

As a result of certain ownership changes, the Company may be subject to an annual limitation on the utilization of its U.S. net operating loss carryforwards pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. A study to determine the effect, if any, of this change, has not been undertaken.

 

Tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, and 2015 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Neither our Articles of Incorporation nor Bylaws prevent us from indemnifying our officers, directors and agents to the extent permitted under the Nevada Revised Statute (“NRS”). NRS Section 78.7502 provides that a corporation shall indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with any defense to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 78.7502(1) or 78.7502(2), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein.

 

NRS 78.7502(1) provides that a corporation may 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 corporation, by reason of the fact that he 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 him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he 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 his conduct was unlawful.

 

NRS Section 78.7502(2) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he 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 amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals there from, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

 

II-1

 

 

NRS Section 78.747 provides that except as otherwise provided by specific statute, no director or officer of a corporation is individually liable for a debt or liability of the corporation, unless the director or officer acts as the alter ego of the corporation. The court as a matter of law must determine the question of whether a director or officer acts as the alter ego of a corporation.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. 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, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed hereby in the Securities Act and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

(i) If the registrant is relying on Rule 430B (§230.430B of this chapter):

 

(A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) (§230.424(b)(3) of this chapter) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

(B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) (§230.424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) of this chapter) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) (§230.415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) of this chapter) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 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 effective date, 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 effective date; or

 

(ii) If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C (§230.430C of this chapter), 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 (§230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of 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.

 

II-7

 

 

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 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 (§230.424 of this chapter);

 

(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.

 

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC 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

A proper purpose shall mean a purpose reasonably related to such person’s interest as a stockholder. In every instance where an attorney or other agent is the person who seeks the right to inspection, the demand under oath shall be accompanied by a power of attorney or such other writing that authorizes the attorney or other agent to so act on behalf of the stockholder. The demand under oath shall be directed to the Corporation at its registered office in Nevada or at its principal executive office.

 

6.2 INSPECTION BY DIRECTORS. Any Director shall have the right to examine the Corporation’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records for a purpose reasonably related to his or her position as a Director.

 

ARTICLE VII— GENERAL MATTERS

From time to time, the Board shall determine by resolution which person or persons may sign or endorse all checks, drafts, other orders for payment of money, notes or other evidence of indebtedness that are issued in the name of or payable to the Corporation, and only the persons so authorized shall sign or endorse those instruments.

 

7.2 EXECUTION OF CORPORATE CONTRACTS AND INSTRUMENTS. Except as otherwise provided in these Bylaws, the Board, or any officers of the Corporation authorized thereby, may authorize any officer or officers, or agent or agents, to enter into any contract or execute any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the Corporation, provided the Corporation conducts appropriate reviews of any contracts or instruments with related parties through which conflicts of interest may arise; such authority may be general or confined to specific instances.

 

7.3 STOCK CERTIFICATES.

 

7.3.1 The shares of the Corporation’s capital stock may be represented by certificates or uncertificated. Certificates of stock shall be issued in numerical order and shall be signed by any two officers of the Corporation as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors and may be sealed with the seal of the Corporation or a facsimile thereof. The signatures of such officers may be facsimiles if the certificate is manually signed on behalf of a transfer agent, or registered by a registrar, other than the Corporation itself or an employee of the Corporation. If an officer who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon such certificate ceases to be an officer of the Corporation before the certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if the person were an officer on the date of issue. The certificates for such shares, if used, shall be of such tenor and design as the Board of Directors from time to time may adopt. Each such certificate of stock shall state:

 

(a) That the Corporation is incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada;

 

(b) The name of the person to whom issued;

 

Page 18 of 27

 

 

(c) The number and class of shares and the designation of the series, if any, which such certificate represents; and

 

(d) The par value of each share represented by such certificate, or a statement that such shares are without par value.

 

7.4 UNCERTIFICATED SHARES. The Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of uncertificated shares by the Corporation and may prescribe procedures for the issuance and registration of transfer thereof, and with respect to such other matters relating to uncertificated shares as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate. No such authorization shall affect previously issued and outstanding shares represented by certificates until such certificates shall have been surrendered to the Corporation. Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of any uncertificated shares, the Corporation shall issue or cause to be issued to the holder of such shares a written statement of the information required to be included on stock certificates under the laws of the State of Nevada and these Bylaws. Notwithstanding the adoption of any resolution providing for uncertificated shares, each registered holder of stock represented by uncertificated shares shall be entitled, upon request to the custodian of the stock transfer books of the Corporation, or other person designated as the custodian of the records of uncertificated shares, to have physical certificates representing such shares registered in such holder’s name.

 

7.5 SPECIAL DESIGNATION ON CERTIFICATES. If the Corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, then the powers, designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock; providedhowever, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 78.242 of the NRS, in lieu of the foregoing requirements there may be set forth on the face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock a statement that the Corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights.

 

7.6 LOST CERTIFICATES. The Board of Directors may order a new certificate or certificates of shares to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates alleged to have been lost or destroyed, but in every such case the owner of the lost certificate or certificates shall first cause to be given to the Corporation a bond, with surety or sureties satisfactory to the Corporation in such sum as said Board of Directors may in its discretion deem sufficient as indemnity against any loss or liability that the Corporation may incur by reason of the issuance of such new certificate; but the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, refuse to issue such new certificate save upon the order of some court having jurisdiction in such matters.

7.7 FIXING RECORD DATE. In order that the Corporation may determine the shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, such date in any case to be not more than forty days and, in the case of a meeting of shareholders, not less than ten days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of shareholders. When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

 

7.8 CONSTRUCTION; DEFINITIONS. Unless the context requires otherwise, the general provisions, rules of construction, and definitions in the NRS shall govern the construction of these Bylaws. Without limiting the generality of this provision, the singular number includes the plural, the plural number includes the singular, and the term “person” includes both a corporation and a natural person.

 

7.9 DIVIDENDS.

 

7.9.1 The Board, subject to any restrictions contained in the NRS may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of its capital stock. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property, or in shares of the Corporation’s capital stock.

 

7.9.2 The Board may set apart out of any of the funds of the Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve.

 

7.10 FISCAL YEAR. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be fixed by resolution of the Board and may be changed by the Board.

7.12 CODE OF CONDUCT. The Corporation shall adopt a Code of Conduct codifying the ethical standards to which all Directors, Officers, employees and 10% shareholders of the Corporation shall adhere.

 

7.13 TRANSFER OF STOCK. Transfers of stock shall be made only upon the transfer books of the Corporation kept at an office of the Corporation or by transfer agents designated to transfer shares of the stock of the Corporation. Except where a certificate is issued in accordance with Section 7.5 of these Bylaws, an outstanding certificate for the number of shares involved shall be surrendered for cancellation before a new certificate is issued therefore. Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of the Corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate, and record the transaction in its books.

 

7.14 REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS.

 

7.14.1 The Corporation:

 

(a) shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner;

 

(b) shall be entitled to hold liable for calls and assessments on partly paid shares the person registered on its books as the owner of shares; and

 

(c) shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of another person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Nevada.

 

7.15 WAIVER OF NOTICE. Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the NRS or these Bylaws, a written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting solely for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

 

7.16 REPRESENTATIONS OF SHARES OF OTHER CORPORATIONS. The Chief Executive Officer or any vice president and the secretary or assistant secretary of this corporation are authorized to veto, represent and exercise on behalf of this corporation all rights incident to any and all shares of any other corporation or corporations standing in the name of this corporation. The authority herein to said officers to vote or represent on behalf of the Corporation or corporations stay be exercised either by such officers in person or by any person authorized so to do by proxy or power of attorney duly executed by said officers.

ARTICLE VIII— NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION

 

8.1 NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

 

8.1.1 Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders pursuant to the NRS or these Bylaws, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the NRS or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:

 

(a) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent; and

 

(b) such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.

 

8.1.2 However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

 

8.1.3 Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:

 

(a) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

(b) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

(c) if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and

 

(d) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

 

Page 22 of 27

 

  

8.1.4 An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

 

8.2 DEFINITION OF ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

ARTICLE IX— INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

 

9.1 POWER TO INDEMNIFY IN ACTIONS, SUITS OR PROCEEDINGS OTHER THAN THOSE BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION. Subject to Section 9.3 of this Article IX, the Corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, as now or hereafter in effect, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that such person (or the legal representative of such person) is or was a Director or officer of the Corporation or any predecessor of the Corporation, or is or was a Director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director or officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person 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 such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person 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 reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

 

9.2 POWER TO INDEMNIFY IN ACTIONS, SUITS OR PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION. Subject to Section 9.3 of this Article IX, the Corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, as now or hereafter in effect, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person (or the legal representative of such person) is or was a Director or officer of the Corporation or any predecessor of the Corporation, or is or was a Director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

Page 23 of 27

 

  

9.3 AUTHORIZATION OF INDEMNIFICATION. Any indemnification under this Article IX (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a Director or officer at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the Directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such Directors designated by a majority vote of such Directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such Directors, or if such Directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iv) by the stockholders (but only if a majority of the Directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, if they constitute a quorum of the Board, presents the issue of entitlement to indemnification to the stockholders for their determination). Such determination shall be made, with respect to former Directors and officers, by any person or persons having the authority to act on the matter on behalf of the Corporation. To the extent, however, that a present or former Director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

 

9.4 GOOD FAITH DEFINED. For purposes of any determination under Section 9.3 of this Article IX, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Section 9.4 shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, officer, employee or agent. The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be.

 

Page 24 of 27

 

  

9.5 INDEMNIFICATION BY A COURT. Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 9.3 of this Article IX, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any Director or officer may apply to a Court in the State of Nevada for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of this Article IX. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the Director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standards of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 9.3 of this Article IX nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the Director or officer seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.5 shall be given to the Corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the Director or officer seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

 

9.6 EXPENSES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE. To the fullest extent not prohibited by the NRS, or by any other applicable law, expenses incurred by a person who is or was a Director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that if the NRS requires, an advance of expenses incurred by any person in his or her capacity as a Director or officer (and not in any other capacity) shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article IX.

 

9.7 NONEXCLUSIVITY OF INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article IX shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Articles of Incorporation, any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested Directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of this Article IX shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article IX shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of this Article IX but whom the Corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the NRS, or otherwise. The Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its Directors, officers, employees or agents respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the NRS, or by any other applicable law.

 

Page 25 of 27

 

  

9.8 INSURANCE. To the fullest extent permitted by the NRS or any other applicable law, the Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was a Director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article IX.

 

9.9 CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Article IX, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its Directors or officers, so that any person who is or was a Director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was a Director or officer of such constituent corporation serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a Director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article IX with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. For purposes of this Article IX, references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a Director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such Director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article IX.

 

9.10 SURVIVAL OF INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred by this Article IX shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators and other personal and legal representatives of such a person.

 

9.11 LIMITATION ON INDEMNIFICATION. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article IX to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 9.5 hereof), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any Director or officer in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of the Corporation.

 

Page 26 of 27

 

  

9.12 INDEMNIFICATION OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article IX to Directors and officers of the Corporation.

 

9.13 EFFECT OF AMENDMENT OR REPEAL. Neither any amendment or repeal of any Section of this Article IX, nor the adoption of any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws inconsistent with this Article IX, shall adversely affect any right or protection of any Director, officer, employee or other agent established pursuant to this Article IX existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision, including without limitation by eliminating or reducing the effect of this Article IX, for or in respect of any act, omission or other matter occurring, or any action or proceeding accruing or arising (or that, but for this Article IX, would accrue or arise), prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision.
