Shares to be sold by GHS pursuant to the Equity Financing Agreement dated April 4, 2018.

(2)

There is no current market for the securities. Although the registrant’s common stock has a par value of $0.001, the registrant believes that the calculations offered pursuant to Rule 457(f)(2) are not applicable, and, as such, the registrant has valued the common stock in good faith and for purposes of calculation of the registration fee. In the event of a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction involving the registrant’s common stock, the number of shares registered shall automatically be increased to cover the additional shares of common stock issuable pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

(4)

Shares of common stock currently issued and outstanding to be sold by certain Selling Security Holders (as hereinafter defined).

The fee is calculated by multiplying the aggregate offering amount by .0001245, pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933.

 

 

 

 

The offering price of the common stock has been arbitrarily determined and bears no relationship to any objective criterion of value. The price does not bear any relationship to our assets, book value, historical earnings or net worth. The registrant hereby amends this Registration Statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the registrant shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this Registration Statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 or until the Registration Statement shall become effective on such date as the Commission, acting pursuant to said Section 8(a), may determine.

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

 

APPLIFE DIGITAL SOLUTIONS, INC.

 

There has been no market for our securities, and a public market may not develop, or, if any market does develop, it may not be sustained. Our common stock is not traded on any exchange or on the over-the-counter market. After the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we hope to have a market maker file an application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), for our common stock to be eligible for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board or the OTCQB or OTCQX tiers of OTC Markets Group’s over-the-counter market, the OTC Link, LLC. We do not yet have a market maker who has agreed to file that application.

 

We are not a “blank check company,” and we have no plans or intentions to engage in a business combination following this offering. We are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and will therefore be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.

 

Our business is subject to many risks, and investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See the section titled “Risk Factors” herein, beginning on page 7 .

 

NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR DETERMINED IF THIS PROSPECTUS IS TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

 

The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed. This prospectus is included in the registration statement that was filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Selling Security Holders and the Company may not sell these securities until the registration statement becomes effective. This prospectus is not an offer to sell these securities, and the Selling Security Holders and the Company are not soliciting an offer to buy these securities, in any state where the offer or sale is not permitted.

 

The date of this prospectus is _____________, 2018.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

Except as otherwise indicated, as used in this prospectus, references to the “Company,” “APPlife,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc.

 

The following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus, and it may not contain all of the information that is important for you to consider. Before making an investment decision in our shares, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the section titled “Risk Factors” and our financial statements and related notes, included elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus.

 

Corporate Background

 

APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed March 5, 2018, in Nevada and has offices in San Jose, California and Shanghai, China.  Our office in San Jose, California allows us to take advantage of the marketing opportunities available in the United States as well as keeping close proximity to sources of capital whether it is debt or equity.  Our offices in Shanghai, China allows us to take advantage of a high concentration of skilled tech coders and developers at lower capital costs than in more developed countries such as the United States or Europe.  The Company’s mission is using digital technology to create APPs and websites that make life, business and living easier, more efficient and just smarter.  

 

We are a development stage company with a limited operating history, operations, and revenues and we will need to raise capital to implement our planned operations. If we are unable to do so, an entire investment in our stock could be lost.

 

Where You Can Find Us

 

Our offices are currently located at 338 North Market Street, #161, San Jose, CA 95110.  Our telephone number is 86 136 5179 3584.  

 

 

RISK FACTORS

 

You should carefully consider the risks described below before investing in our securities. Additional risks not presently known to us or that our management currently deems immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the risks described below were to occur, our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. In such an event, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information contained in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes. The risks discussed below include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements.

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

 

We have a limited operating history, and our ability to generate revenue sufficient to support our operations is uncertain.

 

We were formed on March 5, 2018 and have only recently begun operations.  We have a limited operational history upon which you can evaluate our potential for future success. Additionally, we are subject to additional risks associated with early-stage businesses, many of which will be beyond our control. These risks include uncertainty about our maintain or increase our revenues, our ability to limit our operational expenses, other operational difficulties, lack of sufficient capital, competition from more advanced companies selling similar floor safety products, and unanticipated problems, delays, and expenses relating to the implementation of our business plan. We


5


Table of Contents


cannot ensure that we will operate profitably in the future, or that we will have adequate working capital to meet our obligations as they become due.

 

We cannot guarantee continued sales of our products or services.

 

The Company’s business is focused on providing digital technology to create Apps and websites. We cannot provide any assurance that our products and services will sell or continue to sell at rates they have historically.  Our products and services may become less attractive compared to competing products and services, and our business would be harmed.

 

We may be unable to effectively implement our business model and expand.

 

Our business model and growth and marketing strategy is predicated on its ability to introduce our products and services to the market. We cannot assure that we will be able to execute our business plan, introducing our products and services into new markets, that customers will embrace our products compared to competing products and services already well established in those markets, that any of the target markets will adopt our products and services, or that prospective customers will agree to pay the prices for our products and services in those new markets we plan to charge. In the event prospective customers resist our products and services and paying the prices we will charge, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.

 

  We may incur significant debt to finance our operations.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will not incur debt in the future, that it will have sufficient funds to repay its indebtedness, or that the Company will not default on its debt, jeopardizing its business viability. Furthermore, the Company may not be able to borrow or raise additional capital in the future to meet the Company’s needs or to otherwise provide the capital necessary to conduct its business.

 

The Company is dependent on the performance of certain personnel.

 

The Company’s success depends substantially on the performance of its CEO and key employee, Matt Reid.  Given the Company’s relatively early stage of development, the Company is dependent on its ability to retain and motivate high quality personnel. Although the Company believes it will be able to engage qualified personnel for such purposes, an inability to do so could materially adversely affect the Company’s ability to market, sell, and enhance its products. While Mr. Reid is currently devoting his full-time working efforts to the Company, other employees of the Company may only be available to the Company on a part-time basis. The loss of one or more of its key employees or the Company’s inability to hire and retain other qualified employees, including but not limited to research and development staff, sales staff, field staff, and corporate office support staff, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

 

The Company has not established consistent methods for determining the consideration paid to management.

 

The consideration being paid by the Company to its CEO, Mr. Reid, has not been determined based on arm’s length negotiation. While management believes that Mr. Reid’s current compensation arrangement is fair for the work being performed, there is no assurance that the consideration to management reflects the true market value of his services. Additionally, in the future, the Company may grant net profits interests to its executive officers in addition to stock options, which may further dilute shareholders’ ownership of the Company.

 

There is no guarantee that the Company will pay dividends to its shareholders.

 

The Company does not anticipate declaring and paying dividends to its shareholders in the near future. It is the Company’s current intention to apply net earnings, if any, in the foreseeable future to increasing its capital base and marketing. Prospective investors seeking or needing dividend income or liquidity should therefore not purchase the Shares. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever have sufficient earnings to declare and pay dividends to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock, and in any event, a decision to declare and pay dividends is at the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Table of Contents


 

A small group of Company employees and their related parties hold a majority of the control of the Company.

 

As of September 27, 2018, the Company’s CEO, Mr. Reid, owns approximately 86.9% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. By virtue of such stock ownership, Mr. Reid is able to control the election of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and to generally exercise control over the affairs of the Company. Such concentration of ownership could also have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of the Company that might otherwise be beneficial to stockholders. There can be no assurance that conflicts of interest will not arise with respect to such management or that such conflicts will be resolved in a manner favorable to the Company.

 

Management cannot guarantee that its relationship with the Company does not create conflicts of interest.

 

The relationship of management and its affiliates to the Company could create conflicts of interest. While management has a fiduciary duty to the Company, it also determines its compensation from the Company. Management’s compensation from the Company has not been determined pursuant to arm’s-length negotiation.

 

The Company may sustain losses that cannot be recovered through insurance or other preventative measures.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of its business. The Company plans to maintain comprehensive liability and property insurance at customary levels. The Company will also evaluate the availability and cost of business interruption insurance. However, should uninsured losses occur, the Shareholders could lose their invested capital.

 

We may be subject to liabilities that are not readily identifiable at this time.

 

The Company may have liabilities to affiliated or unaffiliated lenders. These liabilities would represent fixed costs we would be required to be pay, regardless of the level of business or profitability experienced by the Company. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to pay all of its liabilities. Furthermore, the Company is always subject to the risk of litigation from customers, suppliers, employees, and others. Litigation can cause the Company to incur substantial expenses and, if cases are lost, judgments, and awards can add to the Company’s costs.

 

In the course of business, the Company may incur expenses beyond what was anticipated.

 

Unanticipated costs may force the Company to obtain additional capital or financing from other sources or may cause the Company to lose its entire investment in the Company if it is unable to obtain the additional funds necessary to implement its business plan. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient capital to implement its business plan successfully. If a greater investment is required in the business because of cost overruns, the probability of earning a profit or a return of shareholder investment in the Company is diminished.

 

The Company will rely on management to execute the business plan and manage the Company’s affairs.

 

Under applicable state corporate law and the By-Laws of the Company, the officers and directors of the Company have the power and authority to manage all aspects of the Company’s business. Shareholders must be willing to entrust all aspects of the Company’s business to its directors and executive officers.

 

There is no assurance the Company will always have adequate capital to conduct its business.

 

The Company will have limited capital available to it. If the Company’s entire original capital is fully expended and additional costs cannot be funded from borrowings or capital from other sources, then the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and business performance would be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company is required to indemnify its directors and officers.

 


7


Table of Contents


The Company’s By-Laws provide that the Company will indemnify its officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law. If the Company were called upon to indemnify an officer or director, then the portion of its assets expended for such purpose would reduce the amount otherwise available for the Company’s business.

 

We may encounter difficulties managing any growth, and if we are unable to do so, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

 

If we are able to successfully launch our apps and websites, as our operations grow, the simultaneous management of development, production and commercialization across our target markets will become increasingly complex and may result in less than optimal allocation of management and other administrative resources, increase our operating expenses and harm our operating results.

 

Our ability to effectively manage our operations, growth and various projects across our target markets will require us to make additional investments in our infrastructure to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures and to attract and retain sufficient numbers of talented employees, which we may be unable to do effectively. We may be unable to successfully manage our expenses in the future, which may negatively impact our gross margins or operating margins in any particular quarter.

  

Our success also depends in part on our management’s expertise managing a public company, and our management has no expertise in this area. If our management is not able to manage the company properly as a public company, our business would be harmed.

 

Matt Reid, our CEO and director, has no experience in management positions with public companies. If our management is not able to successfully manage the Company as a public company, including complying with various regulatory, disclosure and reporting obligations of public companies, our business would be harmed.

   

Due to the fact that our sole officer and director is located in China, your rights as an investor in the United States may be limited in the following ways.

 

Our sole officer and director, Matt Reid, resides in China and operates the Company from China. As a result, as an investor you may have difficulty with the following:

 

 

·

effecting service of process within the United States against our non-U.S. resident officer and director;

 

 

 

 

·

enforcing U.S. court judgments in the United States based upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against the above-referenced foreign person;

 

 

 

 

·

enforcing U.S. court judgments in a Chinese court based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against the above foreign person; and

 

 

 

 

·

bringing an original action in a Chinese court to enforce liabilities based upon the U.S. federal securities laws against the above foreign person.

     

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property

We may become involved in intellectual property disputes, which may disrupt our business and require us to pay significant damage awards.

Third parties may sue us for intellectual property infringement, which, if successful, could disrupt our business, cause us to pay significant damage awards or require us to pay licensing fees.  We may also be required to pay penalties, judgments, royalties or significant settlement costs.  If we fail or are unable to develop non-infringing technology our business could suffer.  

 

Third parties may misappropriate our proprietary technologies, information, or trade secrets despite a contractual obligation not to do so.


8


Table of Contents


 

Third parties (including joint venture, collaboration, development partners, contract manufacturers, and other contractors and shipping agents) may have custody or control of any proprietary processes and technologies developed by us. If proprietary technologies developed by us were stolen or misappropriated, they could be used by other parties who may be able to use the technologies for their own commercial gain. In the event that any proprietary technologies are developed and then misappropriated, it could be difficult for us to challenge the misappropriation or prevent reverse engineering, especially in countries with limited legal and intellectual property protection.

  

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock

 

We may, in the future, issue additional common shares, which would reduce investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 117,641,185 shares are issued and outstanding as of September 27, 2018. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then-existing shareholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors, and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.

 

Our common shares are subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC, and the trading market in our securities will likely be limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 

 

·

That a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and

 

·

The broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quality of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 

 

·

Obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and

 

·

Make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 

 

·

Sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

 

·

That the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

 

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.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Table of Contents


 

There is no current trading market for our securities and if a trading market does not develop, purchasers of our securities may have difficulty selling their shares.

 

There is currently no established public trading market for our securities, and an active trading market in our securities may not develop, or, if developed, may not be sustained. We intend to have a market maker apply for admission to quotation of our securities on the OTC Bulletin Board or another over-the-counter quotation board (the OTCQB or OTCQX tiers of OTC Markets Group’s over-the-counter market) after the registration statement relating to this prospectus is declared effective by the SEC. We do not yet have a market maker who has agreed to file such application. If for any reason our common stock is not quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (or another over-the-counter quotation board) or a public trading market does not otherwise develop, purchasers of the shares may have difficulty selling their common stock should they desire to do so. No market makers have committed to becoming market makers for our common stock and none may do so.

 

State securities laws may limit secondary trading, which may restrict the states in which and conditions under which you can sell the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

Secondary trading in common stock sold in this offering will not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, the common stock in any particular state, the common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted thus causing you to realize a loss on your investment.

 

We may issue shares of preferred stock in the future that may adversely impact your rights as holders of our common stock.

 

Because our CEO and director, Mr. Reid, owns a majority of our outstanding common stock, he could authorize our Board of Directors to determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred shares without further stockholder approval. As a result, our Board of Directors could then authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders preferred rights to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividends before dividends are declared to holders of our common stock, and the right to the redemption of such preferred shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of the common stock. To the extent that we do issue shares of preferred stock, your rights as holders of common stock could be impaired thereby, including, without limitation, dilution of your ownership interests in us. In addition, shares of preferred stock could be issued with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult, which may not be in your interest as a holder of common stock.

 

We may seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships by issuing capital stock.

 

We may finance our operations and develop strategic relationships by issuing equity or debt securities, which could significantly reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. Furthermore, any newly issued securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stock. Moreover, any issuances by us of equity securities may be at or below the prevailing market price of our stock and in any event may have a dilutive impact on your ownership interest, which could cause the market price of our stock to decline.

 

We have used an arbitrary offering price.

 

The offering price of $0.0875 per share of common stock was arbitrarily determined by the Company and is unrelated to specific investment criteria, such as the assets or past results of the Company’s operations. In determining the offering price, the Company considered such factors as the prospects, if any, of similar companies, the previous experience of management, the Company’s anticipated results of operations, and the likelihood of acceptance of this offering. Please review any financial or other information contained in this offering with qualified persons to determine its suitability as an investment before purchasing any shares in this offering.

There may be deficiencies with our internal controls that require improvements, and if we are unable to adequately evaluate internal controls, we may be subject to sanctions by the SEC.

 

We are exposed to potential risks from legislation requiring companies to evaluate internal controls under Section 404a of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. As a smaller reporting company and emerging growth company, we will not be required to provide a report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting until our second annual report, and we will be exempt from the auditor attestation requirements concerning any such report so long as we are an emerging growth company or a smaller reporting company. We have not yet evaluated whether our internal control procedures are effective and therefore there is a greater likelihood of undiscovered errors in our internal controls or reported financial statements as compared to issuers that have conducted such evaluations. If we are not able to meet the requirements of Section 404a in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we might be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC.

 

Risks Associated with this Offering

 

There has been no independent valuation of the stock, which means that the stock may be worth less than the purchase price.

 

The per share purchase price has been determined by us without independent valuation of the shares. We established the offering price based on management’s estimate of the value of the shares. This valuation is highly speculative and arbitrary.

 

There is no relation to the market value, book value, or any other established criteria. We did not obtain an independent appraisal opinion on the valuation of the shares. The shares may have a value significantly less than the offering price and the shares may never obtain a value equal to or greater than the offering price.

 

Investors may never receive cash distributions, which could result in an investor receiving little or no return on his or her investment.

 

Distributions are payable at the sole discretion of our board of directors. We do not know the amount of cash that we will generate, if any, once we have more productive operations. Cash distributions are not assured, and we may never be in a position to make distributions.

 

Even if a market develops for our shares, our shares may be thinly traded with wide share price fluctuations, low share prices and minimal liquidity.

 

If a market for our shares develops, the share price may be volatile with wide fluctuations in response to several factors, including: potential investors’ anticipated feeling regarding our results of operations; increased competition; and our ability or inability to generate future revenues.

 

In addition, if our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or another over-the-counter quotation board, our share price may be affected by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. Our share price might be affected by general economic, political, and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates, commodity prices, or international currency fluctuations. In addition, even if our stock is approved for quotation by a market maker through the OTC Bulletin Board or another over-the-counter quotation board, stocks traded over this quotation system are usually thinly traded, highly volatile and not followed by analysts. These factors, which are not under our control, may have a material effect on our share price.

 

If a Market in our common stock does not develop, we may not receive any funds from GHS Investments, LLC under the Equity Financing Agreement.

 

We may not be able to draw down on any funds from the Equity Financing Agreement with GHS Investments, LLC.  If we are unable to draw down under the Equity Financing Agreement, we may have to seek funds elsewhere.  If we are unable to successfully find another source of capital, we may then have to cease operations, and investors could then lose their entire investment.

We are an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act of 2012, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are choosing to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, although we will lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1 billion, if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, or if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any May 30.

 

Our status as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act of 2012 may make it more difficult to raise capital as and when we need it.

 

Because of the exemptions from various reporting requirements provided to us as an “emerging growth company” and because we will have an extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards, we may be less attractive to investors and it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital as and when we need it. Investors may be unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry if they believe that our financial accounting is not as transparent as other companies in our industry. If we are unable to raise additional capital as and when we need it, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

 

THE OFFERING

 

On April 4, 2018, we entered into an Equity Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) with GHS Investments LLC (“GHS”). Although we are not required to sell shares under the Financing Agreement, the Financing Agreement gives us the option to sell to GHS, up to $5,000,000 worth of our common stock, in increments, over the period ending twenty-four (24) months after the date this Registration Statement is deemed effective (the “Open Period”). $5,000,000 was stated to be the total amount of available funding in the Financing Agreement, because this was the maximum amount that GHS agreed to offer us in funding. There is no assurance a market in our common stock will develop or if one does ever develop that the market price of our common stock will increase in the future. The number of common shares that remain issuable may not be sufficient, dependent upon the share price, to allow us to access the full amount contemplated under the Financing Agreement. If no market develops and/or the price of our common stock does not increase, we will not be able to place puts for the full commitment under the Financing Agreement. Upon execution of the Financing Agreement we issued GHS a $67,500 Promissory Note as a commitment fee.

 

During the Open Period, the Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver a Put Notice to GHS which shall state the dollar amount the Company intends to sell to GHS on a designated closing date. The purchase price of the common stock will be set at eighty percent (80%) of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the date on which the Company delivers a put notice to


12


Table of Contents


GHS. In addition, there is an ownership limit for GHS of 9.99% and a minimum of ten (10) trading days between put notices.

 

In order for the Company to be eligible to deliver put notices to GHS, the following conditions must be met: (i) a registration statement shall be declared effective and remain effective; (ii) at all times during the period beginning on the related put notice date and ending on and including the related closing date of the put, the Company’s common stock shall have been listed or quoted for trading on OTC Markets or its equivalent and shall not have been suspended from trading thereon for a period of two (2) consecutive trading days during the open period; (iii) the Company has not defaulted or be in breach of the Financing Agreement; (iv) no injunction shall be issued or remain in force in connection with the purchase of the Company’s shares; (v) officers shall not participate in any trading of the common stock during the ten (10) trading days following each closing date; and (vi) the issuance of the shares will not violate any shareholder approval requirements of OTC Markets. If any of the events described above occurs during a pricing period, then GHS shall have not obligation to purchase the shares delivered in the Put Notice. Further the terms of the Financing Agreement required that a registration statement be effective no more than 180 days following the date the initial registration statement was filed. The Company was unable to meet this deadline, however GHS has waived this deadline and will allow the Company to continue working through comments on this registration statement until its effectiveness is granted.

 

GHS is not permitted to engage in short sales involving our common stock, or to engage in other activities that could manipulate the market for our common stock, during the period commencing April 4, 2018 and continuing through the termination of the Financing Agreement. In accordance with Regulation SHO, however, sales of our common stock by GHS after delivery of a put notice of such number of shares reasonably expected to be purchased by GHS under a put will not be deemed short sales.

 

In order for the Company’s exercise of a put to be effective, we must deliver the documents, instruments and writings required under the Financing Agreement. GHS is not required to purchase the put shares unless:

 

 

·

Our registration statement with respect to the resale of the shares of common stock delivered in connection with the applicable put shall have been declared effective;

 

·

we shall have obtained all material permits and qualifications required by any applicable state for the offer and sale of the registrable securities; and

 

·

we shall have filed all requisite reports, notices, and other documents with the SEC in a timely manner.

 

As we draw down on the equity line of credit reflected in the Financing Agreement, shares of our common stock will be sold into the market by GHS. The sale of these shares could cause our stock price to decline. In turn, if our stock price declines and we issue more puts, more shares will come into the market, which could cause a further drop in our stock price. The Company determines when and whether to issue a put to GHS, so the Company will know precisely both the stock price used as the reference point, and the number of shares issuable to GHS upon such exercise. You should be aware that there is an inverse relationship between the market price of our common stock and the number of shares to be issued under the equity line of credit. We have no obligation to utilize the full amount available under the equity line of credit.

 

Neither the Financing Agreement nor any of our rights or GHS’s rights thereunder may be assigned to any other person.

 

In addition, there are 3,611,552 shares being registered by Additional Selling Security Holders of the Company.

 

There is no market for our common stock and shares may be sold at privately negotiated process by the Additional Selling Security Holders share until a market develops and our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or the OTCQB or OTCQX tiers of OTC Markets Group’s over-the-counter market, and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares being sold by the Selling Security Holders. No underwriting arrangements have been entered into by any of the Selling Security Holders. The Selling Security Holders and any intermediaries through whom such securities are sold may be deemed “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to the securities offered, and any profits realized or commissions received may be deemed “underwriting compensation.”

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock sold to GHS, for general corporate and working capital purposes, acquisitions of assets, businesses or operations, or for other purposes that the Board of Directors, in good faith, deems to be in the best interest of the Company.  The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the Additional Selling Security Holders.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

We have not set an offering price for the shares registered hereunder, as the only shares being registered are those sold pursuant to the GHS Financing Agreement and by the Additional Selling Security Holders. The Additional Selling Security Holders may sell all or a portion of the shares being offered pursuant to this prospectus at fixed prices and prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices or at negotiated prices.

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have not declared or paid dividends on our common stock since our formation, and we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Declaration or payment of dividends, if any, in the future, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our then current financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. There are no contractual restrictions on our ability to declare or pay dividends. Consequently, you will only realize an economic gain on your investment in our common stock if the price appreciates. You should not purchase our common stock expecting to receive cash dividends. Since we do not anticipate paying dividends, and if we are not successful in establishing an orderly public trading market for our shares, then you may not have any manner to liquidate or receive any payment on your investment. Therefore, our failure to pay dividends may cause you to not see any return on your investment even if we are successful in our business operations. In addition, because we may not pay dividends in the foreseeable future, we may have trouble raising additional funds which could affect our ability to expand our business operations.

 

MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK

 

Market Information

 

There has been no market for our securities. Our common stock is not traded on any exchange or on the over-the-counter market. After the effective date of the registration statement relating to this prospectus, we hope to have a market maker file an application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, FINRA for our common stock to be eligible for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board or another quotation board (such as the OTCQB). We do not yet have a market maker who has agreed to file such application. There is no assurance that a trading market will develop, or, if developed, that it will be sustained. Consequently, a purchaser of our common stock may find it difficult to resell the securities offered herein should the purchaser desire to do so when eligible for public resale.

 

We have issued 117,641,185 shares of common stock since the Company’s inception on March 5, 2018, all of which are restricted shares. As of September 27, 2018, we had no outstanding shares of preferred stock, options, warrants, notes payable convertible into capital stock, or other securities that are convertible into shares of common stock.

Assumes all of the shares under the Equity Financing Agreement and the Additional Selling Security Holders shares of common stock offered in this prospectus are issued and sold, and no other shares of common stock are issued or sold during the offering period. Based on 117,641,185 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of September 27, 2018, 2,000,000 shares of common stock being sold by GHS Investments, LLC, and 119,641,185 shares of common stock issued and outstanding after completion of the offerings.

  

SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS

 

We are registering 2,000,000 shares for GHS Investments, LLC under the Equity Financing Agreement and 3,611,552 shares for existing security holders (the “Additional Selling Security Holders”).  GHS Investments, LLC may offer and sell up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock, which consists of shares of common stock to be initially purchased by GHS pursuant to the Financing Agreement. If issued presently, the shares of common stock registered for resale by GHS would represent 1.67% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of September 27, 2018.

 

GHS will be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act. Any profits realized by the selling stockholder may be deemed to be underwriting commissions.

 

The following table sets forth the shares beneficially owned, as of September 27, 2018, by the GHS Investments, LLC and the Additional Selling Security Holders prior to the offering contemplated by this prospectus, the number


16


Table of Contents


of shares each Selling Security Holder is offering by this prospectus and the number of shares which each would own beneficially if all such offered shares are sold.

 

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person or his/her spouse has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power.

  

The percentages below are calculated based on 117,641,185 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of September 27, 2018.

 

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FISCAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

 

The following discussion of our plan of operation should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 18 of this prospectus. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. We undertake no obligation to update such statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they are made.

 

Overview

 

APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed March 5, 2018, in Nevada and has offices in San Jose, California and Shanghai, China.  Our office in San Jose, California allows us to take advantage of the marketing opportunities available in the United States as well as keeping close proximity to sources of capital whether it is debt or equity.  Our offices in Shanghai, China allows us to take advantage of a high concentration of skilled tech coders and developers at lower capital costs than in more developed countries such as the United States or Europe.  The Company’s mission is using digital technology to create and invest in APPs and websites that make life, business and living easier, more efficient and just smarter.  

 

Plan of Operation

 

During the next twelve months, the Company plans to complete the current projects we have already begun coding. Our marketing and business management/executive team will operate from both Shanghai China and our offices in San Jose. We will continue to explore new concepts and opportunities to invest in projects that meet our criteria. Our business model is to develop and build out our Drinx and Rooster Apps and web based business over the next year.  We plan to engage multiple resources and partners to market our first two completed projects B2BCHX and Smartrade.  We anticipate that Drinx and Rooster will launch and be marketed within the next twelve months.  In additional to our App development, we intend to find projects that can be assisted by our marketing and capitalization capabilities where we can play an active role in the project’s success.

   

Results of Operations

 

Revenue

 

Since inception through the year ended June 30, 2018, we did not generate any revenue. The Company has been in the process of marketing and developing its apps, hiring developers and coders, incurring professional fees for registering its common stock related to the equity financing with GHS and identifying other apps and partnerships to generate revenues as the Company expands its operations.

Table of Contents


 

  Operating Income (Loss)

 

During the year ended June 30, 2018 we had operating expenses of $171,090.  This loss was due primarily to the professional fees paid to consultants, a promissory note issued to GHS related to the equity financing and other general and administrative expenses incurred.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

We incurred $1,497 of other expense, all due to interest expense. 

 

Net loss

 

We reported a net loss of $172,587 for the year ended June 30, 2018.

We anticipate generating losses and, therefore, may be unable to continue operations in the future. If we require additional capital, we would have to issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party.

 

Going Concern

 

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no revenue generating operations and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $172,587. In addition, there is a working capital deficiency of approximately $187,587 and a stockholder’s deficiency of $87,587 as of June 30, 2018. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Our cash was $11,490 for the period ended June 30, 2018.  We recorded a net loss of income of 172,587 for the period ended June 30, 2018.  We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased operations and the development of our apps and business operations.  We anticipate generating revenues with our B2BCHX app, but only minimal revenues for our other apps over the next twelve months.  Consequently, we are dependent on the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to sustain our operations and implement our business plan.  If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will be required to delay or forego some portion of our business plan, which would have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results from operations and financial condition.  There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary amounts of capital or that our estimates of our capital requirements will prove to be accurate.

Table of Contents


We presently do not have any significant credit available, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity.  Due to our operating losses, our operations have not been a source of liquidity.  We will need to obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable.  In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding.

 

To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to existing stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to holders of common stock and the terms of such debt could impose restrictions on our operations. Regardless of whether our cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet our operational needs, we may seek to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash, which may also result in dilution to existing shareholders. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing.

 

No assurance can be given that sources of financing will be available to us and/or that demand for our equity/debt instruments will be sufficient to meet our capital needs, or that financing will be available on terms favorable to us. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may not be able to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or may be required to reduce the scope of our planned marketing efforts and development of our apps, any of which could have a negative impact on our business and operating results. In addition, insufficient funding may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, which could require us to:

 

· Curtail the development of our apps, 

· Seek strategic partnerships that may force us to relinquish significant rights to our apps, or 

· Explore potential mergers or sales of significant assets of our Company. 

 

Investing Activities

 

On May 3, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 21% of Smartrade Exchange Services, Inc. (“Smartrade”) for $450,000 in various tranches based on defined milestones. Payment shall be made in five installments, each are 45 days apart, over six months beginning on October 15, 2018, as each milestone is completed. On the date the agreement, Smartrade issued 4.66% of its common stock, on a fully diluted basis, to the Company. In exchange, the Company shall pay $100,000 to Smartrade on October 15, 2018. In addition, the Company also holds one of five seats on Smartrade’s board of directors.

 

Smartrade is a cryptocurrency exchange platform that allows retail customers to buy and sell cryptocurrencies for their personal accounts.  As part of the investment, we became the exclusive marketing and development partner for Smartrade.  We believe that this will provide additional revenue to the Company as Smartrade expands into other markets, including the United States, as well as adopting more cryptocurrencies to buy and sell for its customers pending necessary regulatory approvals.  

 

Financing Activities

  

During the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) to June 30, 2018, the Company engaged GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS”) to provide funding.  GHS paid expenses on behalf of the Company and charged a commitment fee in the form of promissory note.  The notes carry an 8% annual interest rate and the balance of notes payable at June 30, 2018 was $73,000.  Interest expense accrued during the period was $1,497.

 

Professional Fees

 

Professional fees were minor for the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) through June 30, 2018. However, the Company expects professional fee costs to increase as the Company is a public reporting company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which requires that it maintain relationships with both PCAOB registered audit firms and securities counsel to assist with the SEC reporting requirements. In addition, the Company may also

attempt to purchase other entities or assets and operations of other entities if the advantageous situation presents itself. This could require the Company to incur substantial professional fees.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and operating results require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form S-1, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences may be material.

 

Management believes the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates are those related to revenue recognition. Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters. The Company’s management has reviewed these critical accounting policies and related disclosures.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company will recognize revenue from the sale of products and services in accordance with ASC 605,  ”Revenue Recognition,”  only when all of the following criteria have been met:

 

 

i)

Persuasive evidence for an agreement exists;

 

 

 

 

ii)

Service has been provided or when customers take possession of products;

 

 

 

 

iii)

The fee is fixed or determinable; and,

 

 

 

 

iv)

Collection is reasonably assured.

 

Service income is derived progressively based on the amount of work rendered. A contract site typically comprises of hundreds to thousands of units that requires the application of the chemical solutions. Revenue from service income is recognized progressively based on the number of units completed.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

We are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are choosing to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

We do not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our net results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

 

Seasonality

We do not expect our sales to be impacted by seasonal demands for our products and services.

 

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Products

 

As of the period from inception, through the today’s date, we did not generate any revenue and incurred expenses and operating losses, as part of our developmental stage activities in developing three apps, B2BCHX, DRINX and ROOSTER.  B2BCHX is our first fully developed app that is available in iTunes App Store and Google Play.  B2BCHX allows business owners around the world to order background checks on Chinese companies to prevent fraudulent business transactions.  The retail price for each report is US$79.99.

 

Our DRINX app is in development and we believe the beta version will be ready by the middle of the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.  DRINX app allows anyone to purchase a virtual drink ticket anywhere and at anytime for friends and colleagues.  We anticipate the sources of revenue will come from advertising and sponsorships from alcohol companies promoting products on the app, user fee of $0.99 to send each drink and discounts provided by the bars and restaurants for purchases made by the app.

 

Our ROOSTER app is in development and we believe the beta version will be ready by the second quarter of fiscal year 2019.  ROOSTER allows men to order their entire toiletry kit delivered on a monthly or bi-monthly schedule through the dashboard of the app.  We anticipate the sources of revenue will come from subscriptions averaging $500 per year and advertising and sponsorships.        

 

We have experienced a net loss of $172,587 for the period ended June 30, 2018, used net cash in operating activities of $10,010 and an accumulated deficit of $172,587 at June 30, 2018.

 

The Company anticipates that it would need a minimum of approximately $1,500,000 over the next 12 months to continue as a going concern and bring the Company’s apps to market and generate revenue within that time frame.  Specifically, in order for the Company to fully implement its plans to create apps and spend the necessary marketing expenditures for them we will need: (1) $750,000 for marketing expenses, (2) $500,000 for general administration and overhead expenses, (3) $180,000 for legal and accounting expenses, and (3) $70,000 for developers and engineers and app and server maintenance expenses.  If we are not able to raise enough funds, we may be forced to look for capital through debt or equity, which would dilute our common stockholders.

 

Competition

 

Although there are countless app and website developers and companies out there, we believe we have advantages over competitors.  First our dual location of offices. Our business, management and marketing based in the U.S and our development team is located in Shanghai. Our creative team works in both places.  Access to talent at a much more reasonable cost in Shanghai allows flexibility and that allows creativity to be explored more freely and makes completing projects with new or unique features much more likely. We can also finish faster and for less money and then focus dollars on marketing and obtaining customers.  Second, our planned access to investment capital and filing to trade as a public company will allow us to not only build and develop our own concepts and ideas like any other app development company, but we will also be able to explore opportunities to invest in and participate in the growth and development of other companies that are not our own in-house projects, which will hopefully give us the advantage of accelerated growth.

 

Marketing Strategy

 

Our marketing strategy is carefully built and tailored for each of our individual projects. Multiple projects in varying industries allows us to cast a wide net in attracting customers from different marketplaces globally. 

 

Our completed project B2BCHX will be marketed as an anti-fraud or fraud prevention service when doing business with a Chinese company. The Company believes that globally, clients of Chinese businesses have no way to verify information or do a background check in a cost-effective way.   B2BCHX helps prevent fraud by providing customers with a background check in an inexpensive, easy to read, one-page report. They can use the information


21


Table of Contents


for confidence when sending money, to verify what they have been told by the company staff or to try to track down a company that has not fulfilled the obligations to the customer.

 

The variations on the types of businesses we can develop allows our product to be sold across multiple market spaces. We are not limited to a single market or model.

 

The strategic partnerships with each of our individual in house projects are invaluable. For our Drinx app, we have agreed to terms with a well known, long term New York City restaurateur and club owner, Lesly Bernard. His knowledge and market experience will allow New York City to be our base city in the Drinx service and expand from there.  With Rooster we have agreed to terms with a well known Hollywood hair and stylist to male celebrities,  Natalia Bruschi. Her client lists include the top male stars from film and television and our agreed  terms allow us to use her marketing materials to sell Rooster product.

 

We have also engaged an IR/PR team to help create marketing campaigns and create editorial content for each of our businesses as we launch. We have begun using these services for Smartrade and soon B2BCHX. We are planning the launches of Drinx and Rooster to coincide with a well timed and placed marketing campaign.

 

Employees

 

We currently have one full time employee who does have a formal employment agreement. We plan to hire additional employees as needed as the Company grows.

Matthew Reid, 48, CEO, CFO, President, Secretary and Director.  Matthew Reid is an experienced founder who has worked in the venture capital and private equity industry for the past 15 years where he has focused on sales, management, marketing and business development.  He has owned and operated several successful businesses ranging from a commercial real estate mortgage company to a media investment group.  Mr. Reid holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from New York University.  

 

Board Composition

 

Our By-Laws provide that the Board of Directors directors which shall constitute the whole board shall not be less than one (1) nor more than seven (7) or such other maximum number of directors as permitted by the Nevada General Corporation Law.  The maximum or minimum number of directors cannot be changed, nor can a fixed number be substituted for the maximum and minimum numbers, except by a duly adopted amendment to the articles of incorporation or by an amendment to this bylaw.

 

No Committees of the Board of Directors; No Financial Expert

 

We do not presently have a separately constituted audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee or any other committees of our Board of Directors. Nor do we have an audit committee or financial expert. Management has decided not to establish an audit committee at present because our limited resources and limited operating activities do not warrant the formation of an audit committee or the expense of doing so. As such, our entire Board of Directors acts as our audit committee. We do not have a financial expert

serving on the Board of Directors or employed as an officer based on management’s belief that the cost of obtaining the services of a person who meets the criteria for a financial expert under Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K is beyond our limited financial resources and the financial skills of such an expert are simply not required or necessary for us to maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting in light of the limited scope and simplicity of accounting issues raised in our financial statements at this stage of our development.

 

Auditors

 

Our principal registered independent auditor is as follows:

 

Rose, Snyder & Jacobs LLP

15821 Ventura Blvd., Suite 490, Encino, CA 91436

Phone: (818) 461-0600

 

Code of Ethics

 

The Company does not have a written code of ethics that applies to the Company’s officers.

 

Potential Conflicts of Interest

 

Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executives or directors.

 

Director Independence

 

Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities. As a result of this review, our board of directors determined that our directors do not meet the independence requirements, according to the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Involvement in Legal Proceedings

 

None of our officers or directors has filed a personal bankruptcy petition, had a bankruptcy petition filed against any business of which they were a general partner or officer at the time of bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time, or has been convicted of or been the subject of any criminal proceedings or the subject of any order, judgment or decree involving the violation of any state or federal securities laws within the past ten (10) years.

 

Compliance with Section 16(a) Of the Exchange Act

 

Upon the effectiveness of this registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we intend to file a Form 8-A registration statement under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Section 16(a) of that act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common shares and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

 

The following table lists, as of September 27, 2018, the number of shares of common stock of our Company that are beneficially owned by (i) each person or entity known to our Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock; (ii) each officer and director of our Company; and (iii) all officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock by our principal shareholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using beneficial ownership concepts under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power.

 

The percentages below are calculated based on 117,641,185 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of September 27, 2018. As of September 27, 2018, we did not have any outstanding options, warrants exercisable for, or other securities convertible into shares of our common stock.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION


24


Table of Contents


GHS and the Additional Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of its shares of Company common stock on OTC Markets or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares of our common stock are traded, or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed prices, prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices, or at negotiated prices. GHS and the Additional Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 

 

·

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

·

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

·

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

·

privately negotiated transactions;

 

·

broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; or

 

·

a combination of any such methods of sale.


Additionally, broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commissions in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction, a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

GHS is an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with such sales. Any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents, and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them, may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act of 1933. GHS has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Company’s common stock. Pursuant to a requirement by FINRA, the maximum commission or discount to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker-dealer may not be greater than 8% of the gross proceeds received by us for the sale of any securities being registered pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by the selling stockholder. The selling stockholder may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer, or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of any of the shares of our common stock by the Additional Selling Stockholders. We will receive proceeds from the sale of our common stock to GHS under the Financing Agreement. Neither the Financing Agreement with GHS nor any rights of the parties under the Financing Agreement with GHS may be assigned or delegated to any other person.

 

We have entered into an agreement with GHS to keep this prospectus effective until GHS (i) has sold all of the common shares purchased by it under the Financing Agreement and (ii) has no further right to acquire any additional shares of common stock under the Financing Agreement.

 

The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the


25


Table of Contents


distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the selling stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholder. 

 

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

The following description of our capital stock is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation, which has been filed as an exhibit to our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

 

Common Stock

 

We are authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of which 117,641,185 shares are issued and outstanding as of September 27, 2018. Each holder of shares of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to the vote of stockholders, including the election of Directors. The holders of shares of common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or cumulative voting rights. There is no provision in our Articles of Incorporation or By-laws that would delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of our Company.

 

Warrants and Options

 

Currently, there are no warrants or options outstanding; nor are there any other equity or debt securities convertible into common stock other than disclosed in the “Convertible Note” paragraph above.

 

Security Holders

 

As of September 27, 2018, there were 117,641,185 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, which were held by 39 stockholders of record.

 

Non-cumulative Voting

 

Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors.

 

Transfer Agent

 

We have engaged Action Stock Transfer Corp., as transfer agent to serve as agent for shares of our common stock. Our transfer agent’s contact information is as follows:

 

Action Stock Transfer Corp.

2469 E. Fort Union Blvd., Suite 214, Salt Lake City, UT 84121

(801) 274-1088

 

Admission to Quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board or Another Over-the-Counter Quotation Board

 

We intend to have a market maker file an application for our common stock to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or the OTCQB or OTCQX tiers of OTC Markets Group’s over-the-counter market. However, we do not have a market maker that has agreed to file such application. If our securities are not quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or another over-the-counter quotation board, a security holder may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our securities. The over-the-counter quotation boards differ significantly from national and regional stock exchanges in that they

 

 

(1)

are not situated in a single location but operate through communications of bids, offers and confirmations between broker-dealers, and


26


Table of Contents


 

 

 

 

(2)

securities admitted to quotation are offered by one or more Broker-dealers rather than the “specialists” common to stock exchanges.

 

To qualify for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board or another over-the-counter quotation board, an equity security must have one registered broker-dealer, known as the market maker, willing to list bid or sale quotations and to sponsor the company listing. If our securities meet the qualifications for trading securities on the OTC Bulletin Board or another over-the-counter quotation board, our securities would be eligible to trade on that over-the-counter quotation board, but there is no guarantee that our securities would ever trade. We may not now or ever qualify for quotation on any over-the-counter quotation board. We currently have no market maker who is willing to list quotations for our securities.

 

 

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Prior to this offering, there was no public market for our common stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares of our common stock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market prices of our common stock and could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.

We have outstanding an aggregate of 117,641,185 shares of our common stock prior to this offering, and we will have outstanding 119,641,185 shares of our common stock after conclusion of this offering assuming (1) we sell all of the shares being registered on behalf of GHS (2,000,000 shares). All of the shares registered in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, unless those shares are purchased by our affiliates, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

 

The remaining 114,029,633 unregistered shares of common stock outstanding after this offering will be restricted as a result of securities laws. Restricted securities may be sold in the public market only if they have been registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, or another exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

 

Rule 144

 

Rule 144 allows for the public resale of restricted and control securities if a number of conditions are met. Meeting the conditions includes holding the shares for a certain period of time, having adequate current information, looking into a trading volume formula, and filing a notice of the proposed sale with the SEC.

 

In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements and have filed all required reports for a least 90 days before the sale, and (iii) we are not and have never been a shell company (a company having no or nominal operations and either (1) no or nominal assets, (2) assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or (3) assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets). If we ever become a shell company, Rule 144 would be unavailable until one year following the date we cease to be a shell company and file Form 10 information with the SEC ceasing to be a shell company, provided that we are then subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and have filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that we were required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports.

 

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:

 


27


Table of Contents


 

-

1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding; or

 

 

 

 

-

The average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

  

At the expiration of the one-year holding period, a person who was not one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock without restriction. A person who was one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would remain subject to the volume restrictions described above.

 

Sales under the Rule 144 by our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

 

LEGAL MATTERS

 

We know of no existing or pending legal proceedings against us other than as disclosed below, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or any of their respective affiliates, or any beneficial stockholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

 

EXPERTS

 

Except as disclosed herein, no expert or counsel named in this prospectus as having prepared or certified any part of this prospectus or having given an opinion upon the validity of the securities being registered or upon other legal matters in connection with the registration or offering of the common stock was employed on a contingency basis or had, or is to receive, in connection with the offering, a substantial interest, directly or indirectly, in the registrant or its subsidiary. Nor was any such person connected with the registrant or any of its parents, subsidiaries as a promoter, managing or principal underwriter, voting trustee, director, officer or employee.

 

The financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2018, have been included herein in reliance on the report of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of that firm as experts in auditing and accounting. The legal opinion rendered by Brunson Chandler & Jones, PLLC, regarding our common stock registered in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, is as set forth in its opinion letter included in this prospectus. The address of Brunson Chandler & Jones, PLLC, is Walker Center, 175 S. Main Street, 14 th Floor, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84111. We have issued Brunson Chandler & Jones, PLLC, 245,098 shares of our common stock in consideration of legal services rendered and those shares are being registered under this registration statement.

 

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

Rose, Snyder & Jacobs LLP is our independent registered public accounting firm. There have not been any changes in or disagreements with this firm on accounting and financial disclosure or any other matter.

 

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and the Shareholders of

APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc. (the Company) as of June 30, 2018, and the related statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) to June 30, 2018, and the related notes to the financial statements (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 June 30, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) to June 30, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

 

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 incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, during the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) to June 30, 2018. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated 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 audit. 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 audit 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 audit, 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 audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

 

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  

 

Organization

 

APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed March 5, 2018 in Nevada and has offices in San Jose, California and Shanghai, China. The Company’s mission is using digital technology to create APPs and websites that make life, business and living easier, more efficient and just smarter. 

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has generated losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception.  The Company has historically financed its operations from equity financing. The Company anticipates that additional equity financings to fund operations in the future. Should management fail to adequately address the issue, the Company may have to reduce its business activities or curtail its operations.  

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and classification of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to include cash and investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company has adopted guidance issued by the FASB that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold of more likely than not and a measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In making this assessment, a company must determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based solely on the technical merits of the position and must assume that the tax position will be examined by taxing authorities.  The Company’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Interest and penalties totaled $0 for the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) to June 30, 2018.  The Company files income tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and the state of California.  

 

Use of Estimates

 

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the financial statements include estimates by management in the valuation of certain assets and liabilities. Significant matters requiring the use of estimates and assumptions include, but are not necessarily limited to, fair value of the Company’s stock, stock based compensation, and valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in


36


Table of Contents


making these estimates. Management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, based on information that is available at the time they are made. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)  

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provision of FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired.  Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights.  Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on the estimated grant date fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).  

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505, Equity–based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”).  Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable:  (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued.  The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, increased by potentially dilutive common shares ("dilutive securities") that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities include stock options and warrants granted, convertible debt, and convertible preferred stock.  There were no potentially dilutive securities for the period ended June 30, 2018.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) to measure and disclosure the fair value of its financial instruments. ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels.  The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are described below:

 

Level 1 Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.  

 

Level 2 Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.  

 

Level 3 Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.  

 

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.


37


Table of Contents


1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)  

 

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.  If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements for cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments.  

 

The investment in Smartrade Exchange Services, Inc is held at cost. See note 2.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Topic 825)". ASU 2016-01 revises the classification and measurement of investments in certain equity investments and the presentation of certain fair value changes for certain financial liabilities measured at fair value. ASU 2016-01 requires the change in fair value of many equity investments to be recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial statements.

 

 

2. INVESTMENT IN SMARTRADE EXCHANGE SERVICES, INC.  

 

On May 3, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 21% of Smartrade Exchange Services, Inc. (“Smartrade”) for $450,000 in various tranches based on defined milestones. Payment shall be made in five installments, each are 45 days apart, over six months beginning on October 15, 2018, as each milestone is completed. On the date the agreement, Smartrade issued 4.66% of its common stock, on a fully diluted basis, to the Company. In exchange, the Company shall pay $100,000 to Smartrade on October 15, 2018. In addition, the Company also holds one of five seats on Smartrade’s board of directors. The investment in Smartrade is being recorded at cost on the Company’s balance sheet.

 

 

3. NOTES PAYABLE  

 

During the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) to June 30, 2018, the Company engaged GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS”) to provide funding.  GHS paid expenses on behalf of the Company and charged a commitment fee in the form of promissory notes, which are secured by all assets of the Company.  The notes carry an 8% annual interest rate that mature through January 14, 2019 and the balance of notes payable at June 30, 2018 was $73,000.  Interest expense accrued during the period was $1,497.

 

 

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS  

 

Due to Officer

 

During the period from March 5, 2018 (inception) to June 30, 2018, the Company received advances from their officer to pay for operating expenses. The balance due to the office at June 30, 2018 totaled $9,580. There are no definitive repayment terms and no interest is accruing on these advances.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)  

 

Due to Smartrade

The Company has a balance payable totaling $100,000 to a private company in which they hold 4.66% ownership. See note 2

 

 

5. CONCENTRATIONS  

 

Cash Concentration

 

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at a financial institution which may, at times, exceed federally insured limits.  At June 30, 2018, the Company had no uninsured balances and has not experienced any losses in such accounts.  

 

 

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES  

 

Legal Matters

 

From time to time the Company may be involved in certain legal actions and claims arising in the ordinary course of business.  The Company was not a party to any specific legal actions or claims at June 30, 2018.

 

Other Contingencies

 

Upon the completion of an initial public offering, the Company will issue stock options equivalent to 3% of the fully diluted common stock to a vendor for services.

 

Equity Financing Agreement

 

On April 4, 2018, we entered into an Equity Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) with GHS Investments LLC (“GHS”). Although we are not required to sell shares under the Financing Agreement, the Financing Agreement gives us the option to sell to GHS, up to $5,000,000 worth of our common stock, in increments, over the period ending twenty-four (24) months after the date this Registration Statement is deemed effective (the “Open Period”). $5,000,000 was stated to be the total amount of available funding in the Financing Agreement, because this was the maximum amount that GHS agreed to offer us in funding. There is no assurance a market in our common stock will develop or if one does ever develop that the market price of our common stock will increase in the future. The number of common shares that remain issuable may not be sufficient, dependent upon the share price, to allow us to access the full amount contemplated under the Financing Agreement. If no market develops and/or the price of our common stock does not increase, we will not be able to place puts for the full commitment under the Financing Agreement. Upon execution of the Financing Agreement we issued GHS a $67,500 Promissory Note as a commitment fee.

 

During the Open Period, the Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver a Put Notice to GHS which shall state the dollar amount the Company intends to sell to GHS on a designated closing date. The purchase price of the common stock will be set at eighty percent (80%) of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the date on which the Company delivers a put notice to GHS. In addition, there is an ownership limit for GHS of 9.99% and a minimum of ten (10) trading days between put notices.

 

 

 

7. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY  

 

Common Stock

 

As of June 30, 2018, there were 17,239,093 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Item 14. Indemnification of Officers and Directors

 

Pursuant to Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, we have the power to indemnify any person made a party to any lawsuit by reason of being a director or officer of the Registrant, or 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 such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner 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. Our Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.

 

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

 

iii.

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

 

2.

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

 

3.

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

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;

 

 

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.

 

 

5.

 

That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser: Each Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than Prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of 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.

 

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

If the notice is not given within twenty (20) days after receipt of the request, the person or persons requesting the meeting may give the notice. Nothing contained in this paragraph of this Section 3 shall be construed as limiting, fixing or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the board of directors may be held.

 

Section 4. NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS’ MEETINGS .  All notices of meetings of stockholders shall be sent or otherwise given in accordance with Section 5 of this Article II not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting being noticed.  The notice shall specify the place, date and hour of the meeting and (i) in the case of a special meeting the general nature of the business to be transacted, or (ii) in the case of the annual meeting those matters which the board of directors, at the time of giving the notice, intends to present for action by the stockholders.

If no such address appears on the corporation’s books or is given, notice shall be deemed to have been given, if sent by mail or telegram to the corporation’s principal executive office, or if published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where this office is located. Personal delivery of any such notice to any officer of a corporation or association or to any member of a partnership shall constitute delivery of such notice to such corporation, association or partnership. Notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or sent by telegram or other means of written communication. In the event of the transfer of stock after delivery or mailing of the notice of and prior to the holding of the meeting, it shall not be necessary to deliver or mail notice of the meeting to the transferee.

If any notice addressed to a stockholder at the address of such stockholder appearing on the books of the corporation is returned to the corporation by the United States Postal Service marked to indicate that the United States Postal Service is unable to deliver the notice to the stockholder at such address, all future notices or reports shall be deemed to have been duly given without further mailing if the same shall be available to the


stockholder upon written demand of the stockholder at the principal executive office of the corporation for a period of one year from the date of the giving of such notice.

 

An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice of any stockholders’ meeting shall be executed by the secretary, assistant secretary or any transfer agent of the corporation giving such notice, and shall be filed and maintained in the minute book of the corporation.

 

Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice.

 

Section 6. QUORUM .  The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except as otherwise provided by statute or the articles of incorporation.  The stockholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to do business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by at least a majority of the shares required to constitute a quorum.  

 

Section 7. ADJOURNED MEETING AND NOTICE THEREOF .  Any stockholders’ meeting, annual or special, whether or not a quorum is present, may be adjourned from time to time by the vote of the majority of the shares represented at such meeting, either in person or by proxy, but in the absence of a quorum, no other business may be transacted at such meeting.  

 

When any meeting of stockholders, either annual or special, is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at a meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At any adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any business, which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

 

Section 8. VOTING .  Unless a record date set for voting purposes be fixed as provided in Section 1 of Article VIII of these bylaws, only persons in whose names shares entitled to vote stand on the stock records of the corporation at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is given (or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held) shall be entitled to vote at such meeting. Any stockholder entitled to vote on any matter other than elections of directors or officers, may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or vote them against the proposal, but, if the stockholder fails to specify the number of shares such stockholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the stockholder’s approving vote is with respect to all shares such stockholder is entitled to vote. Such vote may be by voice vote or by ballot; provided, however, that all elections for directors must be by ballot upon demand by a stockholder at any election and before the voting begins.  


When a quorum is present or represented at any meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy shall decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of the statutes or of the articles of incorporation a different vote is required in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. Every stockholder of record of the corporation shall be entitled at each meeting of stockholders to one vote for each share of stock standing in his name on the books of the corporation.

 

Section 9. WAIVER OF NOTICE OR CONSENT BY ABSENT STOCKHOLDERS .  The transactions at any meeting of stockholders, either annual or special, however called and noticed, and wherever held, shall be as valid as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum be present either in person or by proxy, and if, either before or after the meeting, each person entitled to vote, not present in person or by proxy, signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to a holding of the meeting, or an approval of the minutes thereof.  

 

The waiver of notice or consent need not specify either the business to be transacted or the purpose of any regular or special meeting of stockholders, except that if action is taken or proposed to be taken for approval of any of those matters specified in the second paragraph of Section 4 of this Article II, the waiver of notice or consent shall state the general nature of such proposal.  All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

 

Attendance of a person at a meeting shall also constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person objects, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, and except that attendance at a meeting is not a waiver of any right to object to the consideration of matters not included in the notice if such objection is expressly made at the meeting.

 

Section 10. STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING .  Any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. All such consents shall be filed with the secretary of the corporation and shall be maintained in the corporate records. Any stockholder giving a written consent, or the stockholder’s proxy holders, or a transferee of the shares of a personal representative of the stockholder of their respective proxy holders, may revoke the consent by a writing received by the secretary of the corporation prior to the time that written consents of the number of shares required to authorize the proposed action have been filed with the secretary.  


Section 11. PROXIES .  Every person entitled to vote for directors or on any other matter shall have the right to do so either in person or by one or more agents authorized by a written proxy signed by the person and filed with the secretary of the corporation.  A proxy shall be deemed signed if the stockholder’s name is placed on the proxy (whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission or otherwise) by the stockholder or the stockholder’s attorney in fact.  A validly executed proxy which does not state that it is irrevocable shall continue in full force and effect unless revoked by the person executing it, prior to the vote pursuant thereto, by a writing delivered to the corporation stating that the proxy is revoked or by a subsequent proxy executed by, or attendance at the meeting and voting in person by the person executing the proxy; provided, however, that no such proxy shall be valid after the expiration of six (6) months from the date of such proxy, unless coupled with an interest, or unless the person executing it specifies therein the length of time for which it is to continue in force, which in no case shall exceed seven (7) years from the date of its execution. Subject to the above and the provisions of Section 78.355 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, any proxy duly executed is not revoked and continues in full force and effect until an instrument revoking it or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date is filed with the secretary of the corporation.  

 

Section 12. INSPECTORS OF ELECTION .  Before any meeting of stockholders, the board of directors may appoint any persons other than nominees for office to act as inspectors of election at the meeting or its adjournment. If no inspectors of election are appointed, the chairman of the meeting may, and on the request of any stockholder or his proxy shall, appoint inspectors of election at the meeting. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If inspectors are appointed at a meeting on the request of one or more stockholders or proxies, the holders of a majority of shares or their proxies present at the meeting shall determine whether one (1) or three (3) inspectors are to be appointed. If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, the vacancy may be filled by appointment by the board of directors before the meeting, or by the chairman at the meeting.  

 

The duties of these inspectors shall be as follows:

 

(a) Determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity, and effect of proxies;  

(b) Receive votes, ballots or consents;  

(c) Hear and determine all challenges and questions in any way arising in connection with the right to vote;  

(d) Count and tabulate all votes or consents;  

(e) Determine the election result; and  

(f) Do any other acts that may be proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders.  


 

ARTICLE III

 

DIRECTORS

 

Section 1. POWERS .  Subject to the provisions of the Nevada General Corporation Law and any limitations in the articles of incorporation and these bylaws relating to action required to be approved by the stockholders or by the outstanding shares, the business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of the board of directors.  

 

Without prejudice to such general powers, but subject to the same limitations, it is hereby expressly declared that the directors shall have the power and authority to:

 

(a) Select and remove all officers, agents and employees of the corporation, prescribe such powers and duties for them as may not be inconsistent with law, with the articles of incorporation or these bylaws, fix their compensation, and require from them security for faithful service.  

(b) Change the principal executive office or the principal business office from one location to another; cause the corporation to be qualified to do business in any other state, territory, dependency, or foreign country and conduct business within or without the State; designate any place within or without the State for the holding of any stockholders’ meeting, or meetings, including annual meetings; adopt, make and use a corporate seal, and prescribe the forms of certificates of stock, and alter the form of such seal and of such certificates from time to time as in their judgment they may deem best, provided that such forms shall at all times comply with the provisions of law.  

(c) Authorize the issuance of shares of stock of the corporation from time to time, upon such terms as may be lawful, in consideration of money paid, labor done or services actually rendered, debts or securities cancelled, tangible or intangible property actually received.  

(d) Borrow money and incur indebtedness for the purpose of the corporation, and cause to be executed and delivered therefor, in the corporate name, promissory notes, bonds, debentures, deeds of trust, mortgages, pledges, hypothecations, or other evidences of debt and securities therefor.  

 

Section 2. NUMBER OF DIRECTORS .  The number of directors which shall constitute the whole board shall not be less than one (1) nor more than seven (7) or such other maximum number of directors as permitted by the Nevada General Corporation Law.  The maximum or minimum number of directors cannot be changed, nor can a fixed number be substituted for the maximum and minimum numbers, except by a duly adopted amendment to the articles of incorporation or by an amendment to this bylaw.  

 

Section 3. QUALIFICATION, ELECTION AND TERM OF OFFICE OF DIRECTORS .  Directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of the stockholders to hold office until the next annual meeting, but if any such annual meeting is not held or  


the directors are not elected at any annual meeting, the directors may be elected at any special meeting of stockholders held for that purpose, or at the next annual meeting of stockholders held thereafter. Each director, including a director elected to fill a vacancy, shall hold office until the expiration of the term for which elected and until a successor has been elected and qualified or until his earlier resignation or removal or his office has been declared vacant in the manner provided in these bylaws. Directors need not be stockholders.

 

Section 4. RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS .  Any director may resign effective upon giving written notice to the chairman of the board, the chief executive officer, the president, the secretary or the board of directors of the corporation, unless the notice specifies a later time for the effectiveness of such resignation, in which case such resignation shall be effective at the time specified. Unless such resignation specifies otherwise, its acceptance by the corporation shall not be necessary to make it effective. The board of directors may declare vacant the office of a director who has been declared of unsound mind by an order of a court or convicted of fraud or a felony. Any or all of the directors may be removed without cause if such removal is approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director before his term of office expires.  

 

Section 5. VACANCIES .  Vacancies in the board of directors, may be filled by a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Each director so elected shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders and until a successor has been elected and qualified.  

 

A vacancy in the board of directors exists as to any authorized position of directors which is not then filled by a duly elected director, whether caused by death, resignation, removal, increase in the authorized number of directors or otherwise.

 

The stockholders may elect a director or directors at any time to fill any vacancy or vacancies not filled by the directors, but any such election by written consent shall require the consent of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. If the resignation of a director is effective at a future time, the board of directors may elect a successor to take office when the resignation becomes effective.

 

If after the filling of any vacancy by the directors, the directors then in office who have been elected by the stockholders shall constitute less than a majority of the directors then in office, any holder or holders of an aggregate of ten percent (10%) or more of the total number of shares at the time outstanding having the right to vote for such directors may call a special meeting of the stockholders to elect the entire board. The term of office of any director not elected by the stockholders shall terminate upon the election of a successor.

 

Section 6. PLACE OF MEETINGS .  Regular meetings of the board of directors shall be held at any place within or without the State of Nevada that has been designated from  


time to time by resolution of the board. In the absence of such designation, regular meetings shall be held at the principal executive office of the corporation.

Section 8. OTHER REGULAR MEETINGS .  Other regular meetings of the board of directors shall be held without call at such time as shall from time to time be fixed by the board of directors. Such regular meetings may be held without notice, provided the notice of any change in the time of any such meetings shall be given to all of the directors. Notice of a change in the determination of the time shall be given to each director in the same manner as notice for special meetings of the board of directors.  

 

Section 9. SPECIAL MEETINGS .  The chairman of the board, the chief executive officer, or the president or any two directors may call special meetings of the board of directors for any purpose or purposes at any time.  

 

Notice of the time and place of special meetings shall be delivered personally or by electronic mail to each director or sent by first-class mail or telegram, charges prepaid, addressed to each director at his or her address as it is shown upon the records of the corporation. In case such notice is mailed, it shall be deposited in the United States mail at least four (4) days prior to the time of the holding of the meeting. In case such notice is delivered personally, or by electronic mail or telegram, it shall be delivered personally or by electronic mail or to the telegraph company at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the time of the holding of the meeting. Any oral notice given personally or by telephone may be communicated to either the director or to a person at the office of the director who the person giving the notice has reason to believe will promptly communicate it to the director. The notice need not specify the purpose of the meeting nor the place if the meeting is to be held at the principal executive office of the corporation.

 

Section 10. QUORUM .  A majority of the authorized number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except to adjourn as hereinafter provided. Every act or decision done or made by a majority of the directors present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present shall be regarded as the act of the board of directors, subject to the provisions of Section 78.140 of the Nevada General Corporation Law (approval of contracts or transactions in which a director has a direct or indirect material financial interest), Section 78.125 (appointment of committees), and Section 78.751 (indemnification of directors). A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal of directors, if  


any action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for such meeting.

 

Section 11. WAIVER OF NOTICE .  The transactions of any meeting of the board of directors, however called and noticed or wherever held, shall be as valid as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice if a quorum be present and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the directors not present signs a written waiver of notice, a consent to holding the meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. The waiver of notice of consent need not specify the purpose of the meeting. All such waivers, consents and approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting. Notice of a meeting shall also be deemed given to any director who attends the meeting without protesting, prior thereto or at its commencement, the lack of notice to such director.  

 

Section 12. ADJOURNMENT .  A majority of the directors present, whether or not constituting a quorum, may adjourn any meeting to another time and place.  

 

Section 13. NOTICE OF ADJOURNMENT .  Notice of time and place of holding an adjourned meeting need not be given, unless the meeting is adjourned for more than twenty-four (24) hours, in which case notice of such time and place shall be given prior to the time of the adjourned meeting, in the manner specified in Section 8 of this Article III, to the directors who were not present at the time of the adjournment.  

 

Section 14. ACTION WITHOUT MEETING .  Any action required or permitted to be taken by the board of directors may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the board shall individually or collectively consent in writing to such action. Such action by written consent shall have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote of the board of directors. Such written consent or consents shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the board.  

 

Section 15. DETERMINATION OF MAJORITY OF AUTHORIZED NUMBER OF DIRECTORS .  One (1) director shall constitute a majority of the authorized number of directors when the whole board of directors consists of one (1) director pursuant to Article III, Section 2.  

 

ARTICLE IV

 

COMMITTEES

 

Section 1. COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS .  The board of directors may, by resolution adopted by a majority of the authorized number of directors, designate one or more committees, each consisting of one or more directors, to serve at the pleasure of the board. The board may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committees, who may replace any absent member at any meeting of the committee. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the board, shall have all the authority of the board, except with regard to:

(g) the appointment of any other committees of the board of directors or the members thereof.  

 

Section 2.

ARTICLE VI

 

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMLOYEES,

AND OTHER AGENTS

 

Section 1. ACTIONS OTHER THAN BY THE CORPORATION .  The 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 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, has no reasonable cause to believe his 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, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act 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 that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.  


Section 2. ACTIONS BY THE CORPORATION .  The 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 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 therefrom, 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.  

 

Section 3. SUCCESSFUL DEFENSE .  To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1 and 2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he must be indemnified by the corporation against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.  

 

Section 4. REQUIRED APPROVAL .  Any indemnification under Sections 1 and 2, unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to Section 5, must be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The determination must be made:  

 

(a) by the stockholders;  

(b) by the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the act, suit or proceeding;  

(c) if a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the act, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or  

(d) if a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the act, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.  

 

Section 5. ADVANCE OF EXPENSES .  The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the corporation as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director  


or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. The provisions of this section do not affect any rights to advancement of expenses to which corporate personnel other than directors or officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.

 

Section 6. OTHER RIGHTS .  The indemnification and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a court pursuant to this Article VI:  

 

(a) does not exclude any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, for either an action in his official capacity or an action in another capacity while holding his office, except that indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to Section 2 or for the advancement of expenses made pursuant to Section 5, may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that his acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and was material to the cause of action; and  

(b) continues for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.  

 

Section 7. INSURANCE .  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 serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise for any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article VI.  

 

Section 8. RELIANCE ON PROVISIONS .  Each person who shall act as an authorized representative of the corporation shall be deemed to be doing so in reliance upon the rights of indemnification by this Article VI.  

 

Section 9. SEVERABILITY .  If any provisions of this Article VI are held to be invalid or unenforceable, this Article VI shall be construed as if it did not contain such invalid or unenforceable provision and the remaining provisions of this Article VI shall remain in full force and effect.

If the board of directors does not so fix a record date:

 

(a) The record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

(c) The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board adopts the resolution relating thereto, or the sixtieth (60th) day prior to the date of such other action, whichever is later.

Section 3. REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS .  The corporation 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, and to hold liable for calls and assessments

Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-1 for APPLife Digital Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel for APPLife Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with the registration of 3,611,552 issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company held by certain selling security holders (the “Selling Stockholder Shares”) and 2,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Offering Shares”) to be issued to GHS Investments, LLC, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 being filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”).

 

In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have assumed, with your permission and without independent verification or investigation:

 

1.  That all signatures on documents we have examined in connection herewith are genuine and that all items submitted to us as original are authentic and all items submitted to us as copies conform with originals;

 

2.  Except for the documents stated herein, there are no documents or agreements between the Company and/or any third parties which would expand or otherwise modify the respective rights and obligations of the parties as set forth in the documents referred to herein or which would have an effect on the opinion;

 

3.  That as to all factual matters, each of the representations and warranties contained in the documents referred to herein is true, accurate and complete in all material respects, and the opinion expressed herein is given in reliance thereon.

 

We have examined the Registration Statement and various other documents, books, records, instruments and certificates of public officials, directors, executive officers and agents of the Company, and have made such investigations as we have deemed reasonable, necessary or prudent under the circumstances.  Also, in rendering this opinion, we have reviewed various statutes and judicial precedent as we have deemed relevant or necessary.

 

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

 

1.  The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Nevada.

 

2.  The Selling Stockholder Shares covered by the Registration Statement have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 


3.  The Offering Shares covered by the Registration Statement to be sold pursuant to the terms of the Registration Statement, when issued upon receipt by the Company of the agreed-upon consideration therefore, will be duly authorized, and, upon the sale thereof as contemplated in the Registration Statement, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following exceptions, limitations and qualifications:  (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors; (ii) the effect of general principles of equity, whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought; and (iii) the unenforceability under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions providing for the indemnification of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy.  We expressly disclaim any obligation to update our opinions herein, regardless of whether changes in such facts or laws come to our attention after the date hereof.

 

We hereby consent to be named in the Prospectus forming Part I of the aforesaid Registration Statement under the caption “Experts,” and the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In providing this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder, including Item 509 of Regulation S-K.

 

Very truly yours,

If the Company amends the Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by the Staff or SEC, one or more registration statements on Form S-1 to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement (each, an “ Additional Registration Statement ”).

 

SECTION III RELATED

OBLIGATIONS

 

At such time as the Company is obligated to prepare and file the Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2, the Company will affect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, with respect thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

 

3.1 The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective and shall keep such Registration Statement effective until the earlier to occur of the date on which (A) the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable Securities; or (B) the Investor has no right to acquire any additional shares of Common Stock under the Equity Financing Agreement (the “ Registration Period ”). The Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to respond to all SEC comments within ten (10) business days from receipt of such comments by the Company. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective no later than three (3) business days after notice from the SEC that the Registration Statement may be declared effective. The Investor agrees to provide all information which is required by law to provide to the Company, including the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities, and the Company’s obligations set forth above shall be conditioned on the receipt of such information. 

 

3.2 The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post- effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Investor thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the event the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement is at any time insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall amend such Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover all of the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) calendar days after the necessity therefor arises (based on the then Purchase Price of the Common Stock and other relevant factors on which the Company reasonably elects to rely), assuming the Company has sufficient authorized shares at that time, and if it does not, within thirty (30) calendar days after such shares are authorized. The Company shall 


use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

 

3.3 The Company shall make available to the Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement and its legal counsel without charge (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC at least one (1) copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and, with regards to such Registration Statement(s), any correspondence by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC and any correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC to the Company or its representatives; (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, the Company shall make available copies of the prospectus, via EDGAR, included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto; and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities. 

 

3.4 The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such states in the United States as the Investor reasonably requests; (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period; (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3.4, or (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. 

 

3.5 As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify Investor in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (“ Registration Default ”) and use all diligent efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and take any other necessary steps to cure the Registration Default (which, if such Registration Statement is on Form S-3, may consist of a document to be filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act (as defined below) and to be incorporated by reference in the prospectus) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and make available copies of such supplement or amendment to the Investor. The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (the Company will prepare notification of such effectiveness which shall be delivered to the Investor on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), additionally, the Company will promptly provide to the Investor, a copy of the effectiveness order prepared by the SEC once it is received by the Company; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate, (iv) in the event the Registration Statement is no longer 


effective, or (v) if the Registration Statement is stale as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file its financials or otherwise

 

3.6 The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor holding Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding concerning the effectiveness of the registration statement. 

 

3.7 The Company shall permit the Investor and one (1) legal counsel, designated by the Investor, to review and comment upon the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least one (1) calendar day prior to their filing with the SEC. However, any postponement of a filing of a Registration Statement or any postponement of a request for acceleration or any postponement of the effective date or effectiveness of a Registration Statement by written request of the Investor (collectively, the “ Investor’s Delay ”) shall not act to trigger any penalty of any kind, or any cash amount due or any in-kind amount due the Investor from the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and the Investor. The event(s) of an Investor’s Delay shall act to suspend all obligations of any kind or nature of the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and the Investor. 

 

3.8 At the request of the Investor, the Company’s counsel shall furnish to the Investor, within three (3) business days, an opinion letter confirming the effectiveness of the registration statement. Such opinion letter shall be issued as of the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement, in a form suitable to the Investor. 

 

3.9 The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Investor unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, or (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to the Investor and allow the Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order covering such information. 

 

3.10 The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement on the Principal Market. If, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding sentence, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be listed on each other national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or system. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3.10. 

 

3.11 The Company shall cooperate with the Investor to facilitate the prompt preparation and delivery the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such 


Registrable Securities to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investor may reasonably request.

 

3.12 The Company shall provide a transfer agent for all the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed pursuant hereto. 

 

3.13 If requested by the Investor, the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practical incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Investor reasonably determines should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post- effective amendment as soon as reasonably possible after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by the Investor. 

 

3.14 The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. 

 

3.15 The Company shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder. 

 

3.16 Within three (3) business day after the Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities, with copies to the Investor, confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC. 

 

3.17 The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. 

 

SECTION IV OBLIGATIONS

4.1 At least five (5) calendar days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from the Investor for the Registration Statement.

The Investor covenants and agrees that, in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities by it pursuant to the Registration Statement, it shall comply with the “Plan of Distribution” section of the then current prospectus relating to such Registration Statement. 

 

4.2 The Investor, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder, unless the Investor has notified the Company in writing of an election to exclude all of the Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement. 


4.3 The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of written notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.6 or the first sentence of Section 3.5, the Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.6 or the first sentence of Section 3.5.

SECTION VI INDEMNIFICATION

 

In the event any Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement under this Agreement:

 

6.1 To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, under this Agreement, will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Investor who holds Registrable Securities, the directors, officers, partners, employees, counsel, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls, any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ 1934 Act ”) (each, an “ Indemnified Person ”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “ Claims ”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“ Indemnified Damages ”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which the Investor has requested in writing that the Company register or qualify the Shares (“ Blue Sky Filing ”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (I) through (iii) being, collectively, “ Violations ”). Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6.3 the Company shall reimburse the Investor and each such controlling person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6.1: (I) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which is due to the inclusion in the Registration 


Statement of the information furnished to the Company by any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on (a) a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company or (b) the Indemnified Person’s use of an incorrect prospectus despite being promptly advised in advance by the Company in writing not to use such incorrect prospectus; (iii) any claims based on the manner of sale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor or of the Investor’s failure to register as a dealer under applicable securities laws; (iv) any omission of the Investor to notify the Company of any material fact that should be stated in the Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Investor or the manner of sale; and (v) any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

6.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which Investor is participating, the Investor agrees to severally and jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6.1, the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act and the Company’s agents (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an “ Indemnified Party ”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation is due to the inclusion in the Registration Statement of the written information furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6.3, the Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however , that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6.2 and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall only be liable under this Section 6.2 for that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6.2 with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus were corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented. This indemnification provision shall apply separately to each Investor and liability hereunder shall not be joint and several. 

 

6.3 Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel 


with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party, the representation by counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The indemnifying party shall pay for only one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Persons or the Indemnified Parties, as applicable, and such counsel shall be selected by the Investor, if the Investor is entitled to indemnification hereunder, or the Company, if the Company is entitled to indemnification hereunder, as applicable. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding affected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

6.4 The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (I) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law. 

 

SECTION VII CONTRIBUTION

 

7.1 To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by    law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (I) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6; (ii) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.
