SQCC Square Chain Corporation (CE)

THE OFFERING

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with the other information contained in this Offering Circular, before purchasing our Common Stock. Any of the following factors could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects, and could result in a partial or complete loss of your investment. Some statements in this Offering Circular, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.

Risks Relating to Our Financial Condition

Our independent registered accounting firm has expressed concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The report of our independent registered accounting firm expresses concern about our ability to continue as a going concern based on the absence of significant revenues, our significant losses from operations and our need for additional financing to fund all of our operations. It is not possible at this time for us to predict with assurance the potential success of our business. The revenue and income potential of our proposed business and operations are unknown. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, we may be unable to continue our operations and you may lose some or all of your investment in our common stock.

We have limited operational history in an emerging industry, making it difficult to accurately predict and forecast business operation.

As we have less than ten years of corporate operational history and have yet to generate revenue under our new business model, it is extremely difficult to make accurate predictions and forecasts on our finances. This is compounded by the fact that we operate in both the alternative investments and blockchain technology sectors, which is a rapidly transforming technological sector. There is no guarantee that we will properly execute our business model in either sector.

As a growing company, we have yet to achieve a profit and may not achieve a profit in the near future, if at all.

We have not yet produced a net profit and may not in the near future, if at all. While we expect our revenue to grow, we have not achieved profitability and cannot be certain that we will be able to sustain our current growth rate or realize sufficient revenue to achieve profitability. Further, many of our competitors in the field of blockchain technology have a significantly larger user base and revenue stream, but have yet to achieve profitability. Our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions, increasing revenue throughout the year and keeping operating expenses below our revenue levels in order to achieve positive cash flows, none of which can be assured.

We may require additional capital to support business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features and products or enhance our existing products, improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in continued equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure in the future, could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be impaired, and our business may be harmed.

We expect our quarterly financial results to fluctuate.

We expect our net sales and operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to a number of factors, including changes in:

As a result of the variability of these and other factors, our operating results in future quarters may be below the expectations of our stockholders.

Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry

The Company has an evolving business model

As digital assets and blockchain technologies become more widely available, the Company expects the services and products associated with them to evolve. As a result, to stay current with the industry, the Company’s business model may need to evolve as well. From time to time, the Company may modify aspects of its business model relating to its product mix and service offerings. The Company cannot offer any assurance that these or any other modifications will be successful or will not result in harm to the business. The Company may not be able to manage growth effectively, which could damage its reputation, limit its growth and negatively affect its operating results. Such circumstances would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern or to pursue this segment at all, which would have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects or operations of the Company.

We will need to raise additional capital to continue operations over the coming year.

We anticipate the need to raise approximately $4,000,000 in capital to fund our operations through December 31, 2019. We expect to use these cash proceeds, primarily to acquire other blockchain based companies, joint ventures, retain additional key personnel and remain in full legal and accounting compliance with the SEC. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to raise these required funds or generate sufficient revenue to remain operational.

Our monetization strategy is dependent on many factors outside our control.

There is no guarantee that our efforts to monetize Square Chain Corporation, nor any of the companies we plan on acquiring, will be successful. Furthermore, our competitors may introduce more advanced consumer and business to business applications that deliver a greater value proposition to customers. Customers may stop using our business applications for many reasons, including the addition of advertising, preventing any monetization from occurring. The development of our busness plan may take longer than expected and cost more money than projected. As blockchain technology and the businesses developed around this technology are new technology, we anticipate there will be many changes and developments to occur around this technology that may disrupt our business model. All these factors individually or collectively may preclude us from effectively monetizing our business.

Government actions or digital distribution platform restrictions could result in our products and services being unavailable in certain geographic regions, harming future growth.

Due to our connections to the blockchain industry, governments and government agencies could ban or cause our network or future apps to become unavailable in certain regions and jurisdictions. This could greatly impair or prevent us from registering new customers at our online portal in affected areas and prevent current customers from accessing the network. In addition, government action taken against our service providers, suppliers or partners could cause our network to become unavailable for extended periods of time.

Failure to identify and acquire technology and assets in the blockchain sector could greatly harm our business model.

Our business model is reliant on our ability to identify and acquire technology and assets within the blockchain sector. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in identifying viable companies or successful in acquiring any companies.

We may be unable to manage growth, which may impact our potential profitability.

Successful implementation of our business strategy requires us to manage our growth. Growth could place an increasing strain on our management and financial resources. To manage growth effectively, we will need to:

If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed, and our stock price may decline.

We may not be able to compete successfully with other established companies offering the same or similar services and, as a result, we may not achieve our projected revenue and user targets.

If we are unable to compete successfully with other businesses in our existing market, we may not achieve our projected revenue and/or targets. We compete with both start-up and established financial and technology companies. Compared to our business, some of our competitors may have greater financial and other resources, have been in business longer, have greater name recognition and be better established in the traditional joint b investments and blockchain technology sectors.

We expect to operate in a highly competitive industry, and if we are not able to compete effectively, our business and operating results will be harmed.

We expect that many companies, large and small, will enter the market for blockchain applications. Blockchain users may also develop their own applications.

We anticipate that the software for blockchain services will continue to become more sophisticated and effective and that demand for our services could be adversely affected.

Our target market may be dominated by large, well-financed, and technologically sophisticated entities that have focused on blockchain solutions. We expect large integrated technology companies to become more active in our markets, both through acquisition and internal investment. As costs fall and technology improves, increased market saturation may change the competitive landscape in favor of competitors with greater scale than we possess. In addition, a few smaller companies may provide blockchain software using a model similar to ours; the offerings of these smaller companies may reduce the perceived competitive advantage of our services and impact our market share. If we fail to distinguish our offerings from the other options available, the demand for and market share of those offerings may decrease.

We anticipate that certain of our future competitors will have greater name recognition, longer operating histories, and significantly greater resources than we do. As a result, our competitors may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards, or client requirements. In addition, current and potential competitors have established, and may in the future establish, cooperative relationships with vendors of complementary products, technologies, or services to increase the availability of their products to the marketplace. Current or future competitors may consolidate to improve the breadth of their products, directly competing with our integrated offerings. Accordingly, new competitors or alliances may emerge that have greater market share, larger client bases, more widely adopted proprietary technologies, broader offerings, greater marketing expertise, greater financial resources, and larger sales forces than we have, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage. Further, in light of these advantages, even if our services are more effective than the product or service offerings of our competitors, current or potential clients might accept competitive products and services in lieu of purchasing our services. Increased competition is likely to result in pricing pressures, which could negatively impact our sales, profitability, or market share. In addition to new niche vendors, who offer stand-alone products and services, we face competition from existing enterprise vendors, including those currently focused on software solutions, which have information systems in place with clients in our target market. These existing enterprise vendors may now, or in the future, offer or promise products or services with less functionality than our services, but that offer ease of integration with existing systems and that leverage existing vendor relationships.

Competing blockchain platforms and technologies.

The development and acceptance of competing blockchain platforms or technologies may cause consumers to use alternative distributed ledgers or an alternative to distributed ledgers altogether. This may adversely affect the Company and its exposure to various blockchain technologies. Such circumstances would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern or to pursue this segment at all, which would have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects or operations of the Company.

If we do not continue to innovate and provide services that are useful to users, we may not remain competitive, and our revenues and operating results could suffer.

Our success depends on providing services that our prospective users find valuable. Our competitors will constantly develop products and services that may become more efficient or appealing to our clients. As a result, we must continue to invest significant resources in research and development in order to enhance our existing services and introduce new high-quality services that clients will want. If we are unable to predict user preferences or industry changes, or if we are unable to modify our services on a timely basis, we may lose clients. Our operating results would also suffer if our innovations are not responsive to the needs of our clients, are not appropriately timed with market opportunity, or are not effectively brought to market. As technology continues to develop, our competitors may be able to offer results that are, or that are perceived to be, substantially similar to or better than those generated by our services. This may force us to compete on additional service attributes and to expend significant resources in order to remain competitive.

Failure to manage our rapid growth effectively could increase our expenses, decrease our revenue, and prevent us from implementing our business strategy.

After funding, we expect to experience a period of rapid growth. To manage our anticipated future growth effectively, we must continue to maintain, and may need to enhance, our information technology infrastructure and financial and accounting systems and controls, as well as manage expanded operations in geographically distributed locations. We also must attract, train, and retain a significant number of qualified sales and marketing personnel, professional services personnel, software engineers, technical personnel, and management personnel. Failure to manage our rapid growth effectively could lead us to over-invest or under-invest in technology and operations; result in weaknesses in our infrastructure, systems, or controls; give rise to operational mistakes, losses, or loss of productivity or business opportunities; and result in loss of employees and reduced productivity of remaining employees. Our growth could require significant capital expenditures and may divert financial resources and management attention from other projects, such as the development of new services. If our management is unable to effectively manage our growth, our expenses may increase more than expected, our revenue could decline or may grow more slowly than expected, and we may be unable to implement our business strategy.

We depend on key employees and face competition in hiring and retaining qualified employees.

Our employees are vital to our success, and our key management and other employees are difficult to replace. We currently do not have employment contracts with our key employees. We may not be able to retain highly qualified employees in the future which could adversely affect our business.

Our lack of adequate D&O insurance may also make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers.

We may in the future be subject to additional litigation, including potential class action and stockholder derivative actions. Risks associated with legal liability  are difficult to assess and quantify, and their existence and magnitude can remain unknown for significant periods of time. To date, we have not obtained directors and officers liability (“D&O”) insurance. While neither Nevada law nor our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws require us to indemnify or advance expenses to our officers and directors involved in such a legal action, we have entered into an indemnification agreement with our President and intend to enter into similar agreements with other officers and directors in the future. Without adequate D&O insurance, the amounts we would pay to indemnify our officers and directors should they be subject to legal action based on their service to the Company could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Furthermore, our lack of adequate D&O insuranc e may make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers, which could adversely affect our business.

We may experience significant losses from operations.

Even if we do generate operating income in one or more quarters in the future, subsequent developments in our industry, customer base, business or cost structure or an event such as significant litigation or a significant transaction may cause us to again experience operating losses. We may not become profitable for the long-term, or even for any quarter.

Because competition for our target employees is intense, we may not be able to attract and retain the highly skilled employees we need to support our planned growth.

To continue to execute on our growth plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for these personnel is intense, especially for senior sales executives and engineers with high levels of experience in designing and developing software and Internet-related services. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. We have from time to time in the past experienced, and we expect to continue to experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have. In addition, in making employment decisions, particularly in the Internet and high-technology industries, job candidates often consider the value of the equity awards they are to receive in connection with their employment. Volatility in the price of our stock or failure to obtain stockholder approval for increases in the number of shares available for grant under our equity plans may, therefore, adversely affect our ability to attract or retain key employees. Furthermore, the requirements to expense equity awards may discourage us from granting the size or type of equity awards that job candidates require to join our company. If we fail to attract new personnel or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects could be severely harmed.

If we acquire companies or technologies in the future, they could prove difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value, and adversely affect our operating results and the value of our common stock.

As part of our business strategy, we may acquire, enter into joint ventures with, or make investments in complementary companies, services, and technologies in the future. Acquisitions and investments involve numerous risks, including:

As a result, if we fail to properly evaluate acquisitions or investments, we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of any such acquisitions, we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate, and management resources and attention may be diverted from other necessary or valuable activities.

We may choose to expand by strategic acquisitions of technology and assets. Completion of the any proposed acquisition is subject to various closing conditions, involves significant costs, and will require considerable attention from our management. Failure to complete the acquisition could adversely affect our stock price and our future business and operations.

The completion of the any proposed acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of various closing conditions, including the approval by target stockholders, and we cannot assure you that such conditions will be satisfied and that the acquisition will be successfully completed. In the event that the acquisition is not consummated, we will have spent considerable time and resources, and incurred substantial costs, including costs related to the acquisition, many of which must be paid even if the merger is not completed. If the acquisition is not consummated, our reputation in our industry and in the investment community could be damaged and, as a result, the market price of our common stock could decline.

We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisition.

The success of any acquisition will depend on, among other things, our ability to combine our businesses in a manner that does not materially disrupt existing relationships and that allows us to achieve operational synergies and capitalize on the increased brand recognition and customer base of the combined company. If we are not able to achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected. In particular, the acquisition may not be accretive or accelerate sales in near or long term.

The integration process could result in the loss of key employees; the disruption of our ongoing businesses; or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures, or policies that could adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with third parties and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. Integration efforts between the two companies will also divert management’s attention from our core business and other opportunities that could have been beneficial to our shareholders. An inability to realize the full extent of, or any of, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition, as well as any delays encountered in the integration process, could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations, which may affect the value of the shares of our common stock after the completion of the acquisition.

Further, the actual integration may result in additional and unforeseen expenses. Operational improvements and actual cost synergies, if achieved at all, may be lower than we expect and may take longer to achieve than we anticipate. If we are not able to adequately address these challenges, we may be unable to realize the anticipated benefits of the integration of any acquisition.

Risk Related to the Blockchain Business

We expect to derive revenue from a limited number of products and do not have a broadly-diversified product base.

We expect that a majority of our revenue will be derived from the sale of blockchain products. We also anticipate that a substantial portion of our future revenue, if any, will also be derived from these products and related services. If the sale of these products and services is impeded for any reason and we have not diversified our product offerings, our business and results of operations would be negatively impacted. This includes a diversification from hardware products to software solutions and related services; which transformation, if not successfully executed, could lead to reduced revenue.

The sales cycle for our products and technology may be long, and we may incur substantial expenses for sales that do not occur when anticipated.

The sales cycle for our products, which is the period of time between the identification of a potential customer and completion of the sale, is typically lengthy and subject to a number of significant risks over which we have little control. If revenue falls significantly below anticipated levels, our business would be seriously harmed.

Purchasing decisions for our products and systems may be subject to delays due to many factors that are not within our control, such as: (1) The time required for a prospective customer to recognize the need for our products; (2) The significant expense of many data products and network systems; (3) Customers’ internal budgeting processes; and (4) Internal procedures customers may require for the approval of large purchases.

As our operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels, a small fluctuation in the timing of sales can cause our operating results to vary significantly between periods.

We have a great dependence on a limited number of suppliers and the loss of their manufacturing capability could materially impact our operations.

In the event that the supply of components or finished products is interrupted or relations with any of our principal vendors is terminated, there could be increased costs and considerable delay in finding suitable replacement sources to manufacture our products.

We depend significantly upon our proprietary technology and intellectual property and the loss of or the successful challenge to our proprietary rights could require us to divert management attention and could reduce revenue and increase our operating costs.

From time to time, we may receive claims that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others, including claims regarding patents, copyrights, and trademarks. Because of constant technological change in the segments in which we compete, the extensive patent coverage of existing technologies, and the rapid rate of issuance of new patents, it is possible that the number of these claims may grow. In addition, former employers of our former, current, or future employees may assert claims that such employees have improperly disclosed to us the confidential or proprietary information of these former employers. Any such claim, with or without merit, could result in costly litigation and distract management from day-to-day operations. If we are not successful in defending such claims, we could be required to stop selling, delay shipments of, or redesign our products, pay monetary amounts as damages, enter into royalty or licensing arrangements, or satisfy indemnification obligations that we have with our customers. We cannot assure you that any royalty or licensing arrangements that we may seek in such circumstances will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. We have made and expect to continue making significant expenditures to establish our intellectual property rights and to investigate, defend and settle claims related to the use of technology and intellectual property rights as part of our strategy to manage this risk. In addition, we license and use software from third parties in our business. These third-party software licenses may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms or at all, and may expose us to additional liability. This liability, or our inability to use any of this third-party software, could result in shipment delays or other disruptions in our business that could materially and adversely affect our operating results.

We will rely principally on trade secrets to protect much of our intellectual property in cases where we do not believe that patent protection is appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. Although our employees are subject to confidentiality obligations, this protection may be inadequate to deter or prevent misappropriation of our confidential information. We may be unable to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property or otherwise take appropriate steps to enforce our rights. Failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could adversely affect our competitive business position. If we are unable to prevent third parties from infringing or misappropriating our copyrights, trademarks or other proprietary information, our competitive position could be adversely affected. In the course of conducting our business, we may inadvertently infringe the intellectual property rights of others, resulting in claims against us or our customers. Our contracts generally indemnify our customers for third-party claims for intellectual property infringement by the services and products we provide. The expense of defending these claims may adversely affect our financial results.

Our patents and those of our partners may not provide us with competitive advantages.

Our partners may hold, and we may develop, several patents in the United States and in other countries, which cover multiple aspects of our technology. If these patents expire, this will affect revenues, profitability, or increase competition. In addition to the issued patents, there may also be several patents pending in the United States, Europe and other countries. There can be no assurance that we or our partners will continue to develop proprietary products or technologies that are patentable, that any issued patent will provide us with any competitive advantages or will not be challenged by third parties, or that patents of others will not hinder our competitive advantage.

We are subject to warranty and product liability risks.

A malfunction of or design defect in our products which results in a breach of a customer’s data security or physical harm or damage from our products could result in tort or warranty claims against us. We seek to reduce the risk of these losses by attempting to negotiate warranty disclaimers and liability limitation clauses in our sales agreements. However, these measures may ultimately prove ineffective in limiting our liability for damages.

In addition to any monetary liability for the failure of our products, an actual or perceived breach of network or data security at one of our customers could adversely affect the market’s perception of us and our products and could have an adverse effect on our reputation and the demand for our products. Similarly, an actual or perceived breach of network or data security within our own systems could damage our reputation and have an adverse effect on the demand for our products.

If we are unable to sell additional products and services to our end-customers, our future revenue and operating results will be harmed.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to expand the deployment of our platform with existing end-customers. This may require increasingly sophisticated and costly sales efforts that may not result in additional sales. The rate at which our end-customers purchase additional products and services depends on a number of factors, including the perceived need for additional security products and services as well as general economic conditions. Further, existing end-customers have no contractual obligation to and may not renew their subscription and support and maintenance contracts after the completion of their initial contract period. Our end-customers’ renewal rates may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including their satisfaction with our services and our end-customer support, the frequency and severity of subscription outages, our product uptime or latency, and the pricing of our, or competing, services. Additionally, our end-customers may renew their subscription and support and maintenance services for shorter contract lengths or on other terms that are less economically beneficial to us. We also cannot be certain that our end-customers will renew their subscription and support and maintenance services. If our efforts to sell additional products and services to our end-customers are not successful or our end-customers do not renew their subscription and support and maintenance agreements or renew on less favorable terms, our revenues may grow more slowly than expected or decline.

A network or data security incident may allow unauthorized access to our network or data, harm our reputation, create additional liability and adversely impact our financial results.

Increasingly, companies are subject to a wide variety of attacks on their networks on an ongoing basis. In addition to traditional computer “hackers,” malicious code (such as viruses and worms), phishing attempts, employee theft or misuse, and denial of service attacks, sophisticated nation-state and nation-state supported actors now engage in intrusions and attacks (including advanced persistent threat intrusions) and add to the risks to our internal networks and the information they store and process. Despite significant efforts to create security barriers to such threats, it is virtually impossible for us to entirely mitigate these risks. Furthermore, as a well-known provider of security solutions, we may be a more attractive target for such attacks. A breach in our data security could compromise our networks or networks secured by our products, creating system disruptions or slowdowns and exploiting security vulnerabilities of our products, and the information stored on our networks could be accessed, publicly disclosed, altered, lost, or stolen, which could subject us to liability and cause us financial harm. Although we have not yet experienced significant damages from unauthorized access by a third party of our internal network, any actual or perceived breach of network security in our internal systems could result in damage to our reputation, negative publicity, loss of channel partners, end-customers and sales, loss of competitive advantages over our competitors, increased costs to remedy any problems, and costly litigation. Any of these negative outcomes could adversely impact the market perception of our products and services and investor confidence in our company and could seriously harm our business or operating results.

If we are unable to hire, integrate, train, retain, and motivate qualified personnel and senior management, our business could suffer.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to continue to attract, integrate, and retain qualified and highly skilled personnel. We will be substantially dependent on the service of engineering personnel because of the complexity of our platform. Additionally, any failure to hire, train, and adequately incentivize our sales personnel or the inability of our recently hired sales personnel to effectively ramp to target productivity levels could negatively impact our growth and operating margins. Competition for highly skilled personnel, particularly in engineering, is often intense. Our geographical location, being outside the San Francisco Bay Area, may put us at a disadvantage. In addition, the industry in which we operate generally experiences high employee attrition. Although we have entered into employment offer letters with our key personnel, these agreements have no specific duration and constitute at-will employment. We do not maintain key person life insurance policies on any of our employees. The loss of one or more of our key employees could seriously harm our business. If we are unable to attract, integrate, or retain the qualified and highly skilled personnel required to fulfill our current or future needs, our business, financial condition, and operating results could be harmed.

Our future performance also depends on the continued services and continuing contributions of our senior management to execute on our business plan and to identify and pursue new opportunities and product innovations. The loss of services of senior management or the ineffective management of any leadership transitions, especially within in our sales organization, could significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our development and strategic objectives, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Further, we believe that a critical contributor to our success and our ability to retain highly skilled personnel has been our corporate culture, which we believe fosters innovation, teamwork, passion for end-customers, focus on execution, and the facilitation of critical knowledge transfer and knowledge sharing. As we grow and change, we may find it difficult to maintain these important aspects of our corporate culture. Any failure to preserve our culture as we grow could limit our ability to innovate and could negatively affect our ability to retain and recruit personnel, continue to perform at current levels or execute on our business strategy.

Defects, errors, or vulnerabilities in our products or services, the failure of our products or services to block a virus or prevent a security breach, misuse of our products, or risks of product liability claims could harm our reputation and adversely impact our operating results.

Because our products and services are complex, they have contained and may contain design or manufacturing defects or errors that are not detected until after their commercial release and deployment by our end-customers. For example, from time to time, certain of our end-customers have reported defects in our products related to performance, scalability, and compatibility. Additionally, defects may cause our products or services to be vulnerable to security attacks, cause them to fail to help secure networks, or temporarily interrupt end-customers’ networking traffic. Because the techniques used by computer hackers to access or sabotage networks change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques and provide a solution in time to protect our end-customers’ networks. Furthermore, provider of blockchain solutions, our networks, products, including cloud-based technology, and services could be targeted by attacks specifically designed to disrupt our business and harm our reputation. In addition, defects or errors in our subscription updates or our products could result in a failure of our services to effectively update end-customers’ hardware and cloud-based products. Our data centers and networks may experience technical failures and downtime, may fail to distribute appropriate updates, or may fail to meet the increased requirements of a growing installed end-customer base, any of which could temporarily or permanently expose our end-customers’ networks, leaving their networks unprotected against the latest security threats. Moreover, our products must interoperate with our end-customers’ existing infrastructure, which often have different specifications, utilize multiple protocol standards, deploy products from multiple vendors, and contain multiple generations of products that have been added over time. As a result, when problems occur in a network, it may be difficult to identify the sources of these problems.

The occurrence of any such problem in our products, whether real or perceived, could result in:

Further, our products may be misused by end-customers or third parties that obtain access to our products. For example, our products could be used to censor private access to certain information on the Internet. Such use of our products for censorship could result in negative press coverage and negatively affect our reputation.

The limitation of liability provisions in our standard terms and conditions of sale may not fully or effectively protect us from claims as a result of federal, state, or local laws or ordinances, or unfavorable judicial decisions in the United States or other countries. The sale and support of our products also entails the risk of product liability claims. Although we may be indemnified by our third-party manufacturers for product liability claims arising out of manufacturing defects, because we control the design of our products, we may not be indemnified for product liability claims arising out of design defects. We maintain insurance to protect against certain claims associated with the use of our products, but our insurance coverage may not adequately cover any claim asserted against us. In addition, even claims that ultimately are unsuccessful could result in our expenditure of funds in litigation, divert management’s time and other resources, and harm our reputation.

We will rely on our channel partners to sell substantially all of our products, and if these channel partners fail to perform, our ability to sell and distribute our products and services will be limited, and our operating results will be harmed.

A substantial amount of our revenue will be generated by sales through our channel partners, including distributors and resellers. We will provide our channel partners with specific training and programs to assist them in selling our products, but there can be no assurance that these steps will be effective. In addition, our channel partners may be unsuccessful in marketing, selling, and supporting our products and services. We may not be able to incentivize these channel partners to sell our products to end-customers and, in particular, to large enterprises. These channel partners may also have incentives to promote our competitors’ products and may devote more resources to the marketing, sales, and support of such competitive products. Our agreements with our channel partners may generally be terminated for any reason by either party with advance notice prior to each annual renewal date. We cannot be certain that we will retain these channel partners or that we will be able to secure additional or replacement channel partners. In addition, any new channel partner requires extensive training and may take several months or more to achieve productivity. Our channel partner sales structure could subject us to lawsuits, potential liability, and reputational harm if, for example, any of our channel partners misrepresent the functionality of our products or services to end-customers or violate laws or our corporate policies. If we fail to effectively manage our sales channels or channel partners, our ability to sell our products and services and operating results will be harmed.

Our research and development efforts may not produce successful products or platform features that result in significant revenue, cost savings or other benefits in the near future, if at all.

Developing our products, platform features and related enhancements is expensive. Our investments in research and development may not result in significant design improvements, marketable products or platform features, or may result in products or platform features that are more expensive than anticipated. Additionally, we may not achieve the cost savings or the anticipated performance improvements we expect, and we may take longer to generate revenue, or generate less revenue, than we anticipate. Our future plans include significant investments in research and development and related product opportunities. We believe that we must continue to dedicate a significant amount of resources to our research and development efforts to maintain our competitive position. However, we may not receive significant revenue from these investments in the near future, if at all, or these investments may not yield the expected benefits, either of which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

A portion of our revenue may be generated by sales to government entities, which are subject to a number of challenges and risks.

Sales to government entities are subject to a number of risks. Selling to government entities can be highly competitive, expensive, and time-consuming, often requiring significant upfront time and expense without any assurance that these efforts will generate a sale. The substantial majority of our sales to date to government entities have been made indirectly through our channel partners. Government certification requirements for products like ours may change, thereby restricting our ability to sell into the federal government sector until we have attained the revised certification. If our products are late in achieving or fail to achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, or our competitors achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, we may be disqualified from selling our products to such governmental entity, or be at a competitive disadvantage, which would harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. Government demand and payment for our products and services may be impacted by public sector budgetary cycles, contracting requirements, and funding authorizations, with funding reductions or delays adversely affecting public sector demand for our products and services. Government entities may have statutory, contractual, or other legal rights to terminate contracts with our distributors and resellers for convenience or due to a default, and any such termination may adversely impact our future operating results. Governments routinely investigate and audit government contractors’ administrative processes, and any unfavorable audit could result in the government refusing to continue buying our products and services, a reduction of revenue, or fines or civil or criminal liability if the audit uncovers improper or illegal activities, which could adversely impact our operating results in a material way. Finally, for purchases by the U.S. government, the U.S. government may require certain products to be manufactured in the United States and other relatively high cost manufacturing locations, and we may not manufacture all products in locations that meet such requirements, affecting our ability to sell these products to the U.S. government.

Our ability to sell our products is dependent on the quality of our technical support services and those of our channel partners, and the failure to offer high-quality technical support services could have a material adverse effect on our end-customers’ satisfaction with our products and services, our sales, and our operating results.

After our products are deployed within our end-customers’ networks, our end-customers depend on our technical support services, as well as the support of our channel partners, to resolve any issues relating to our products. Our channel partners often provide similar technical support for third parties’ products and may therefore have fewer resources to dedicate to the support of our products. If we or our channel partners do not effectively assist our end-customers in deploying our products, succeed in helping our end-customers quickly resolve post-deployment issues, or provide effective ongoing support, our ability to sell additional products and services to existing end-customers would be adversely affected and our reputation with potential end-customers could be damaged. Many larger enterprise, service provider, and government entity end-customers have more complex networks and require higher levels of support than smaller end-customers. If we or our channel partners fail to meet the requirements of these larger end-customers, it may be more difficult to execute on our strategy to increase our coverage with larger end-customers. Additionally, if our channel partners do not effectively provide support to the satisfaction of our end-customers, we may be required to provide direct support to such end-customers, which would require us to hire additional personnel and to invest in additional resources. It can take several months to recruit, hire, and train qualified technical support employees. We may not be able to hire such resources fast enough to keep up with unexpected demand, particularly if the sales of our products exceed our internal forecasts. As a result, our and our channel partners’ ability to provide adequate and timely support to our end-customers will be negatively impacted, and our end-customers’ satisfaction with our products and services will be adversely affected. Additionally, to the extent that we may need to rely on our sales engineers to provide post-sales support while we are ramping our support resources, our sales productivity will be negatively impacted, which would harm our revenues. Our or our channel partners’ failure to provide and maintain high-quality support services could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Claims by others that we infringe their proprietary technology or other rights could harm our business.

Companies in the enterprise security industry own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks, domain names, and trade secrets and frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement, misappropriation, or other violations of intellectual property or other rights. Third parties have asserted and may in the future assert claims of infringement of intellectual property rights against us.

Third parties may also assert such claims against our end-customers or channel partners, whom our standard license and other agreements obligate us to indemnify against claims that our products infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties. In addition, to the extent we hire personnel from competitors, we may be subject to allegations that they have been improperly solicited, that they have divulged proprietary or other confidential information, or that their former employers own their inventions or other work product. Furthermore, we may be unaware of the intellectual property rights of others that may cover some or all of our technology or products. As the number of products and competitors in our market increases and overlaps occur, infringement claims may increase. While we intend to increase the size of our patent portfolio, our competitors and others may now and in the future have significantly larger and more mature patent portfolios than we have. In addition, litigation may involve patent holding companies or other adverse patent owners who have no relevant product revenue and against whom our own patents may therefore provide little or no deterrence or protection. In addition, we have not registered our trademarks in all of our geographic markets and failure to secure those registrations could adversely affect our ability to enforce and defend our trademark rights. Any claim of infringement by a third party, even those without merit, could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, could distract our management from our business, and could require us to cease use of such intellectual property. Furthermore, because of the substantial amount of discovery required in connection with intellectual property litigation, there is a risk that some of our confidential information could be compromised by disclosure during this type of litigation. A successful claimant could secure a judgment or we may agree to a settlement that prevents us from distributing certain products or performing certain services or that requires us to pay substantial damages, royalties, or other fees. Any of these events could seriously harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Our proprietary rights may be difficult to enforce or protect, which could enable others to copy or use aspects of our products without compensating us.

We rely and expect to continue to rely on a combination of confidentiality and license agreements with our employees, consultants, and third parties with whom we have relationships, as well as trademark, copyright, patent, and trade secret protection laws, to protect our proprietary rights. We have filed various applications for certain aspects of our intellectual property. Valid patents may not issue from our pending applications, and the claims eventually allowed on any patents may not be sufficiently broad to protect our technology or products. We cannot be certain that we were the first to make the inventions claimed in our pending patent applications or that we were the first to file for patent protection, which could prevent our patent applications from issuing as patents or invalidate our patents following issuance. Additionally, the process of obtaining patent protection is expensive and time-consuming, and we may not be able to prosecute all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner. Any issued patents may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, and any rights granted under these patents may not actually provide adequate defensive protection or competitive advantages to us. Additional uncertainty may result from changes to patent-related laws and court rulings in the United States and other jurisdictions. As a result, we may not be able to obtain adequate patent protection or effectively enforce any issued patents.

Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. We generally enter into confidentiality or license agreements with our employees, consultants, vendors, and end-customers, and generally limit access to and distribution of our proprietary information. However, we cannot be certain that we have entered into such agreements with all parties who may have or have had access to our confidential information or that the agreements we have entered into will not be breached. We cannot guarantee that any of the measures we have taken will prevent misappropriation of our technology. Because we may be an attractive target for computer hackers, we may have a greater risk of unauthorized access to, and misappropriation of, our proprietary information. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as the laws of the United States, and many foreign countries do not enforce these laws as diligently as government agencies and private parties in the United States. From time to time, we may need to take legal action to enforce our patents and other intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity. Such litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could negatively affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. Attempts to enforce our rights against third parties could also provoke these third parties to assert their own intellectual property or other rights against us or result in a holding that invalidates or narrows the scope of our rights, in whole or in part. If we are unable to protect our proprietary rights (including aspects of our software and products protected other than by patent rights), we may find ourselves at a competitive disadvantage to others who need not incur the additional expense, time, and effort required to create the innovative products that have enabled us to be successful to date. Any of these events would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Our use of open source software in our products could negatively affect our ability to sell our products and subject us to possible litigation.

Our products contain software modules licensed to us by third-party authors under “open source” licenses. Some open source licenses contain requirements that we make available applicable source code for modifications or derivative works we create based upon the type of open source software we use. If we combine our proprietary software with open source software in a certain manner, we could, under certain open source licenses, be required to release the source code of our proprietary software to the public. This would allow our competitors to create similar products with lower development effort and time and ultimately could result in a loss of product sales for us.

Although we monitor our use of open source software to avoid subjecting our products to conditions we do not intend, the terms of many open source licenses have not been interpreted by United States courts, and there is a risk that these licenses could be construed in a way that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our products. From time to time, there have been claims against companies that distribute or use open source software in their products and services, asserting that open source software infringes the claimants’ intellectual property rights. We could be subject to suits by parties claiming infringement of intellectual property rights in what we believe to be licensed open source software. If we are held to have breached the terms of an open source software license, we could be required to seek licenses from third parties to continue offering our products on terms that are not economically feasible, to re-engineer our products, to discontinue the sale of our products if re-engineering could not be accomplished on a timely basis, or to make generally available, in source code form, our proprietary code, any of which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

In addition to risks related to license requirements, usage of open source software can lead to greater risks than use of third-party commercial software, as open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or assurance of title or controls on origin of the software. In addition, many of the risks associated with usage of open source software, such as the lack of warranties or assurances of title, cannot be eliminated, and could, if not properly addressed, negatively affect our business. We have established processes to help alleviate these risks, including a review process for screening requests from our development organizations for the use of open source software, but we cannot be sure that our processes for controlling our use of open source software in our products will be effective.

We license technology from third parties, and our inability to maintain those licenses could harm our business.

We incorporate technology that we license from third parties, including software, into our products and services. We cannot be certain that our licensors are not infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties or that our licensors have sufficient rights to the licensed intellectual property in all jurisdictions in which we may sell our products. In addition, some licenses may be non-exclusive, and therefore our competitors may have access to the same technology licensed to us. Some of our agreements with our licensors may be terminated for convenience by them. If we are unable to continue to license any of this technology because of intellectual property infringement claims brought by third parties against our licensors or against us, or if we are unable to continue our license agreements or enter into new licenses on commercially reasonable terms, our ability to develop and sell products and services containing such technology would be severely limited, and our business could be harmed. Additionally, if we are unable to license necessary technology from third parties, we may be forced to acquire or develop alternative technology, which we may be unable to do in a commercially feasible manner or at all, and we may be required to use alternative technology of lower quality or performance standards. This would limit and delay our ability to offer new or competitive products and services and increase our costs of production. As a result, our margins, market share, and operating results could be significantly harmed.

Our failure to adequately protect personal information could have a material adverse effect on our business.

A wide variety of provincial, state, national, and international laws and regulations apply to the collection, use, retention, protection, disclosure, transfer, and other processing of personal data. These data protection and privacy-related laws and regulations are evolving and being tested in courts and may result in ever-increasing regulatory and public scrutiny as well as escalating levels of enforcement and sanctions. Further, the interpretation and application of foreign laws and regulations in many cases is uncertain, and our legal and regulatory obligations in foreign jurisdictions are subject to frequent and unexpected changes, including the potential for various regulatory or other governmental bodies to enact new or additional laws or regulations, to issue rulings that invalidate prior laws or regulations, or to increase penalties significantly. For example, the recently adopted E.U. General Data Protection Regulation imposes more stringent data protection requirements and provides for greater penalties for noncompliance. Our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, or to protect personal data, could result in enforcement action against us, including fines, imprisonment of company officials and public censure, claims for damages by end-customers and other affected individuals, damage to our reputation and loss of goodwill (both in relation to existing end-customers and prospective end-customers), any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial performance, and business. Evolving and changing definitions of personal data and personal information, within the E.U., the United States, and elsewhere, especially relating to classification of IP addresses, machine identification, location data, and other information, may limit or inhibit our ability to operate or expand our business, including limiting strategic partnerships that may involve the sharing of data. Even the perception of privacy concerns, whether or not valid, may harm our reputation and inhibit adoption of our products by current and future end-customers.

If we do not effectively hire and train our direct sales force, we may be unable to add new customers or increase sales to our existing customers, and our business will be adversely affected.

We will be substantially dependent on our direct sales force to obtain new customers and increase sales with existing customers. There is significant competition for sales personnel with the skills and technical knowledge that we require. Our ability to achieve significant revenue growth will depend, in large part, on our success in recruiting, training and retaining sufficient numbers of sales personnel to support our growth, particularly in international markets. New hires require significant training and may take significant time before they achieve full productivity. Our recent hires and planned hires may not become productive as quickly as we expect, and we may be unable to hire or retain sufficient numbers of qualified individuals in the markets where we do business or plan to do business. In addition, a large percentage of our sales force is new to our Company. If we are unable to hire and train a sufficient number of effective sales personnel, or the sales personnel we hire are not successful in obtaining new customers or increasing sales to our existing customer base, our business will be adversely affected.

Our future technology alliance partners may expose us to a range of business risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse impact on our business and financial results.

We intend to enter into technology alliance partnerships with third parties to support our future growth plans. Such relationships include technology licensing, joint technology development and integration, research cooperation, co-marketing activities and sell-through arrangements. We face a number of risks relating to our technology alliance partnerships that could prevent us from realizing the desired benefits from such partnerships on a timely basis or at all, which, in turn, could have a negative impact on our business and financial results.

Technology alliance partnerships require significant coordination between the parties involved, particularly if a partner requires that we integrate its products with our products. This could involve a significant commitment of time and resources by our technical staff and their counterparts within our technology alliance partner. The integration of products from different companies may be more difficult than we anticipate, and the risk of integration difficulties, incompatible products and undetected programming errors or defects may be higher than the risks normally associated with the introduction of new products. It may also be more difficult to market and sell products developed through technology alliance partnerships than it would be to market and sell products that we develop on our own. Sales and marketing personnel may require special training, as the new products may be more complex than our other products.

We will invest significant time, money and resources to establish and maintain relationships with our technology alliance partners, but we have no assurance that any particular relationship will continue for any specific period of time. Generally, our agreements with these technology alliance partners are terminable without cause with no or minimal notice or penalties. If we lose a significant technology alliance partner, we could lose the benefit of our investment of time, money and resources in the relationship. In addition, we could be required to incur significant expenses to develop a new strategic alliance or to determine and implement an alternative plan to pursue the opportunity that we targeted with the former partner.

If our products do not effectively interoperate with our customers’ IT infrastructure, installations could be delayed or cancelled, which would harm our business.

Our products must effectively interoperate with our customers’ existing or future IT infrastructure, which often has different specifications, utilizes multiple protocol standards, deploys products from multiple vendors, and contains multiple generations of products that have been added over time. As a result, when problems occur in a network, it may be difficult to identify the sources of these problems. If we find errors in the existing software or defects in the hardware used in our customers’ infrastructure or problematic network configurations or settings, we may have to modify our software or hardware so that our products will interoperate with our customers’ infrastructure. In such cases, our products may be unable to provide significant performance improvements for applications deployed in our customers’ infrastructure. These issues could cause longer installation times for our products and could cause order cancellations, either of which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, government and other customers may require our products to comply with certain security or other certifications and standards. If our products are late in achieving or fail to achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, or our competitors achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, we may be disqualified from selling our products to such customers, or may otherwise be at a competitive disadvantage, either of which would harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We may not be able to compete successfully with other established companies offering the same or similar services and, as a result, we may not achieve our projected revenue and user targets.

If we are unable to compete successfully with other businesses in our existing market, we may not achieve our projected revenue and/or customer targets. We compete with both start-up and established blockchain technology companies. Compared to our business, some of our competitors may have greater financial and other resources, have been in business longer, have greater name recognition and be better established in the blockchain or technological markets.

Government regulation of the Blockchain industry and digital assets is evolving, and unfavorable changes could substantially harm our business and results of operations.

We are subject to general business regulations and laws as well as Federal and state regulations and laws specifically governing securities and digital assets. Existing and future laws and regulations may impede the growth of the Internet, e-commerce or other online services, and increase the cost of providing online services. These regulations and laws may cover taxation, tariffs, user privacy, data protection, pricing, content, copyrights, distribution, electronic contracts and other communications, consumer protection, broadband residential Internet access and the characteristics and quality of services. It is not clear how existing laws governing issues such as property ownership, sales, use and other taxes, libel and personal privacy apply to the Internet and e-commerce. Unfavorable resolution of these issues may harm our business and results of operations.

The failure to enforce and maintain our intellectual property rights could enable others to use names confusingly similar to Square Chain Corporation and other names and marks used by our business, which could adversely affect the value of the brand.

The success of our business depends on our continued ability to use our existing trade name in order to increase our brand awareness. In that regard, we believe that our trade name is valuable asset that is critical to our success. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not submitted our trademark application for our name, Square Chain Corporation In the event we elect to submit an application to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, there is no guarantee that they will grant us a trademark. The unauthorized use or other misappropriation of our trade name could diminish the value of our business concept and may cause a decline in our revenue.

We expect to incur substantial expenses to meet our reporting obligations as a public company. In addition, failure to maintain adequate financial and management processes and controls could lead to errors in our financial reporting and could harm our ability to manage our expenses.

We estimate that it will cost approximately $50,000 annually to maintain the proper management and financial controls for our filings required as a public reporting company. In addition, if we do not maintain adequate financial and management personnel, processes and controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial performance on a timely basis, which could cause a decline in our stock price and adversely affect our ability to raise capital.

Due to our involvement in the blockchain industry, we may have a difficult time obtaining the various insurances that are desired to operate our business, which may expose us to additional risk and financial liabilities.

Insurance that is otherwise readily available, such as general liability, and directors and officer’s insurance, may become more difficult for us to find and more expensive, because we are a service provider to companies in the digital asset sector. There are no guarantees that we will be able to find such insurances in the future, or that the cost will be affordable to us. If we are forced to go without such insurances, it may prevent us from entering into certain business sectors, may inhibit our growth, and may expose us to additional risk and financial liabilities. In 2018, Square Chain Corporation expects to begin offering health, dental and vision insurance to its employees at an estimated monthly cost of $1,000-$2,000. Square Chain Corporation will carry general liability insurance. We do not currently hold any other forms of insurance, including directors’ and officers’ insurance. Because we do not have any other types of insurance, if we are made a party of a legal action, we may not have sufficient funds to defend the litigation. If that occurs a judgment could be rendered against us that could cause us to cease operations.

Forms of Attack Against the Ethereum Network

Exploitation of Flaws in the Ethereum Network’s Source Code

As with any other computer code, the Ethereum Network source code may contain certain flaws. Several errors and defects have been found and corrected, including those that disabled some functionality for users, exposed users’ information, or allowed users to create multiple views of the Ethereum Network. Such flaws have been discovered and quickly corrected by the Core Developers or the Ethereum community, thus demonstrating one of the advantages of open source codes that are available to the public: open source codes rely on transparency to promote community-sourced identification and solution of problems within the code.

Greater than Fifty Percent of Network Computational Power

Malicious actors can structure an attack whereby such actor gains control of more than half of the Ethereum Network’s processing power or “hashrate.” Computer scientists and cryptographers believe that the immense collective processing power of the Ethereum Network makes it impracticable for an actor to gain control of computers representing a majority of the processing power on the Ethereum Network.

If a malicious actor acquired sufficient computational power necessary to control the Ethereum Network (which amount would be well in excess of fifty percent), it would be able to engage in double-spending, or prevent some or all transactions from being confirmed, and prevent some or all other miners from mining any valid new blocks. The malicious actor or group of actors, however, would not be able to reverse other people’s transactions, change the fixed number of Ethers generated per new block, or transfer previously existing Ether that belong to other users.

Cancer Nodes

This form of attack involves a malicious actor propagating “cancer nodes” to isolate certain users from the legitimate Ethereum Network. A target user functionally surrounded by cancer nodes would be put on a separate “network,” allowing the malicious actor to relay only blocks created by the separate network and thus opening the target user to double-spending attacks. By using cancer nodes, a malicious actor also can disconnect the target user from the Ethereum economy entirely by refusing to relay any blocks or transactions. Ethereum software programs make these attacks more difficult by limiting the number of outbound connections through which users are connected to the Ethereum Network.

Manipulating Blockchain Formation

A malicious actor may attempt to double-spend Ether by manipulating the formation of the Blockchain rather than through control of the Ethereum Network. In this type of attack, a miner creates a valid new block containing a double-spend transaction and schedules the release of such attack block so that it is added to the Blockchain before a target user’s legitimate transaction can be included in a block. All double-spend attacks require that the miner sequence and execute the steps of its attack with sufficient speed and accuracy. Users and merchants can dramatically reduce the risk of a double-spend attack by waiting for multiple confirmations from the Ethereum Network before settling a transaction. The Ethereum Network still may be used to execute instantaneous, low-value transactions without confirmation to the extent the recipient of Ether determines that a malicious miner would be unwilling to carry out a double-spend attack for low-value transactions because the reward from mining would be higher than the small profit gained from double-spending. Users and merchants can take additional precautions by adjusting their Ethereum Network software programs to connect only to other well-connected nodes and to disable incoming connections. These precautions reduce the risk of double-spend attacks involving manipulation of a target’s connectivity to the Ethereum Network.

General Business Risks

Nevada law may make it more difficult and time-consuming to acquire the Company, thereby reducing our vulnerability to an unsolicited proposal for our takeover.

Under Nevada law,  a qualified corporation shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into or engage in any business combination with any interested stockholder or any affiliate or associate of the interested shareholder for a period of three (3) years after the date the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless: (i) Prior to the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; or (iii) On or after the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Our business and operations may experience rapid growth. If we fail to manage our growth, our business and operating results could be harmed and we may have to incur significant expenditures to address the additional operational and control requirements of this growth.

We may experience rapid growth in our sales and operations, which may place significant demands on our management, operational and financial infrastructure. If we do not manage our growth, the quality of our products and services could suffer, which could negatively affect our brand and operating results. To manage this growth, we will need to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. These systems enhancements and improvements will require significant capital expenditures and allocation of valuable management resources. If the improvements are not implemented successfully, our ability to manage our growth will be impaired and we may have to make significant additional expenditures to address these issues, which could harm our financial position. The required improvements may include: Enhancing our information and communication systems to attempt to optimize proper service to our customers, and Enhancing systems of internal controls to ensure timely and accurate reporting of all of our operations

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our brand and operating results could be harmed. We may in the future discover areas of our internal controls that need improvement. We cannot be certain that any measures we implement will ensure that we achieve and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

We have no operating history under our new business model utilizing blockchain technology in an emerging and rapidly evolving market. This makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and may increase the risk that we will not be successful.

We have no operating history under our new business model utilizing blockchain technology. You must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we will encounter as an early-stage company in a new and rapidly evolving market. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties, which could materially harm our business and operating results.

We cannot be certain that additional financing will be available on reasonable terms when required, or at all.

From time to time, we may need additional financing. Our ability to obtain additional financing, if and when required, will depend on investor demand, our operating performance, the condition of the capital markets, and other factors. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all. We may need to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, those securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to the rights of our Common Stock, and our existing stockholders may experience dilution.

Rapid technological changes.

The industries in which the Company intends to compete with are subject to rapid technological changes. No assurances can be given that the technological advantages which may be enjoyed by the Company in respect of their technologies cannot or will not be overcome by technological advances in the respective industries rendering the Company’s technologies obsolete or non-competitive.

Lack of indications of product acceptability.

The success of the Company will be dependent upon its ability to develop commercially acceptable products and to sell such products in quantities sufficient to yield profitable results. To date, the Company has received no indications of the commercial acceptability of any of its proposed products. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict whether its products can be marketed and sold in a commercial manner.

Reliance upon third parties.

The Company does not intend on maintaining a significant technical staff nor does it intend on manufacturing its products. Rather it will rely heavily on consultants, contractors, and manufacturers to design, develop and manufacture its products. Accordingly, there is no assurance that such third parties will be available when needed at affordable prices.

Protection of intellectual property.

The success of the Company will be dependent, in part, upon the protection of its various proprietary technologies from competitive use. Certain of its technologies are the subject of various patents in varying jurisdictions. In addition to the patent applications, the Company relies on a combination of trade secrets, nondisclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to protect its intellectual property rights. Nevertheless, these measures may be inadequate to safeguard the Company’s underlying technologies. If these measures do not protect the intellectual property rights, third parties could use the Company’s technologies, and its ability to compete in the market would be reduced significantly.

In the future, the Company may be required to protect or enforce its patents and patent rights through patent litigation against third parties, such as infringement suits or interference proceedings. These lawsuits could be expensive, take significant time, and could divert management’s attention from other business concerns. These actions could put the Company’s patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly, and any patent applications at risk of not issuing. In defense of any such action, these third parties may assert claims against the Company. The Company cannot provide any assurance that it will have sufficient funds to vigorously prosecute any patent litigation, that it will prevail in any of these suits, or that the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, will be commercially valuable. During the course of these suits, there may be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions and other interim proceedings or developments in the litigation, which could result in the negative perception by investors, which could cause the price of the Company’s common stock to decline dramatically.

Our financial performance, our industry’s overall performance, changing consumer preferences, technologies and advertiser requirements, government regulatory action, tax laws and market conditions in general could have a significant impact on the future market price of our Common Stock. Some of the other factors that could negatively affect our share price or result in fluctuations in our share price include:

We do not expect to declare or pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We do not expect to declare or pay dividends in the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will invest future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, holders of our Common Stock will not receive any return on their investment unless they sell their securities, and holders may be unable to sell their securities on favorable terms or at all.

Our financial statements are unaudited and have not been reviewed by an independent accountant.

Management has prepared the Company’s financial statements. These statements have not been audited. No independent accountant has reviewed these financial statements.

Because we do not have an audit or compensation committee, shareholders will have to rely on our directors, none of whom is not independent, to perform these functions.

We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of an independent director. Indeed, we do not have any audit or compensation committee. The Board of Directors performs these functions as a whole. No members of the Board of Directors are an independent director. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions.

Because we lack certain internal controls over financial reporting in that we do not have an audit committee and our Board of Directors has no technical knowledge of U.S. GAAP and internal control of financial reporting and relies upon the Company’s financial personnel to advise the Board on such matters, we are subject to increased risk related to financial statement disclosures.

We lack certain internal controls over financial reporting in that we do not have an audit committee and our Board of Directors has no technical knowledge of U.S. GAAP and internal control of financial reporting and relies upon the Company’s financial personnel to advise the Board on such matters. Accordingly, we are subject to increased risk related to financial statement disclosures.

Our control shareholder holds a significant percentage of our outstanding voting securities, which could reduce the ability of minority shareholders to effect certain corporate actions.

Our control shareholder is the beneficial owner of 100.00% of our Series B Preferred Stock, which, along with his ownership of common stock, controls 94.7% of the voting securities prior to the Offering and 64.0% of our outstanding voting securities after the Offering, assuming all 100,000,000 shares of common stock in this Offering are sold. As a result of this ownership, he possesses and can continue to possess significant influence and can elect and can continue to elect a majority of our Board of Directors and authorize or prevent proposed significant corporate transactions. His ownership and control may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a future change in control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or changes in our management and, therefore, may depress the trading price of our stock.

Our certificate of incorporation and by-laws include certain provisions that could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change of control of our company or changes in our management, including, among other things:

Upon completion of this offering, we will not be subject to the current and periodic reporting requirements.

As a Regulation A, Tier 1 issuer, you will not be subject to the periodic and current reporting requirements under Rule 257(b) of Regulation A.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements involves the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions, and our consolidated financial statements may be materially affected if such estimates, judgments or assumptions prove to be inaccurate.

Financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) typically require the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. Often, different estimates, judgments and assumptions could reasonably be used that would have a material effect on such financial statements, and changes in these estimates, judgments and assumptions may occur from period to period over time. Significant areas of accounting requiring the application of management’s judgment include, but are not limited to, determining the fair value of assets and the timing and amount of cash flows from assets. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are inherently uncertain and, if our estimates were to prove to be wrong, we would face the risk that charges to income or other financial statement changes or adjustments would be required. Any such charges or changes could harm our business, including our financial condition and results of operations and the price of our securities. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for a discussion of the accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are the most critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements and our business.

If securities industry analysts do not publish research reports on us, or publish unfavorable reports on us, then the market price and market trading volume of our Common Stock could be negatively affected.

Any trading market for our Common Stock will be influenced in part by any research reports that securities industry analysts publish about us. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by securities industry analysts. If no securities industry analysts commence coverage of us, the market price and market trading volume of our Common Stock could be negatively affected. In the event we are covered by analysts, and one or more of such analysts downgrade our securities, or otherwise reports on us unfavorably, or discontinues coverage or us, the market price and market trading volume of our Common Stock could be negatively affected.

Future issuances of our Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock, or the expiration of lock-up agreements that restrict the issuance of new Common Stock or the trading of outstanding stock, could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline and would result in the dilution of your shareholding.

Future issuances of our Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock, and/or conversion of the Notes convertible into Common Stock, or the expiration of lock-up agreements that restrict the sale of Common Stock by selling shareholders, or the trading of outstanding stock, could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline. We cannot predict the effect, if any, of the exercise of conversion of the Notes into Common Stock or other future issuances of our Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock, or the future expirations of lock-up agreements, on the price of our Common Stock. In all events, future issuances of our Common Stock would result in the dilution of your shareholding. In addition, the perception that locked-up parties will sell their securities when the lock-ups expire, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

Our shares are subject to the penny stock rules, making it more difficult to trade our shares.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If the price of our Common Stock is less than $5.00, our Common Stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our Common Stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.

Our management has broad discretion as to the use of certain of the net proceeds from this Offering.

We intend to use up to $400,000 of the net proceeds from this Offering (if we sell all of the shares being offered) for working capital and other general corporate purposes. However, we cannot specify with certainty the particular uses of such proceeds. Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds designated for use as working capital or for other general corporate purposes. Accordingly, you will have to rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of these proceeds. Our management may spend a portion or all of the net proceeds from this Offering in ways that holders of our Common Stock may not desire or that may not yield a significant return or any return at all. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. Pending their use, we may also invest the net proceeds from this Offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. Please see “Use of Proceeds” below for more information.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Offering Circular contains various “forward-looking statements.” You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “estimates” or “anticipates” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. These statements may be impacted by a number of risks and uncertainties.

The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance taking into account all information currently available to us. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations are subject to risks and uncertainties and can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. You should carefully consider these risks before you make an investment decision with respect to our Securities. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results, performance or transactions, see the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

USE OF PROCEEDS

If we sell all of the shares being offered, our net proceeds (after our estimated offering expenses of $400,000) will be $3,600,000. We will use these net proceeds for:

If 25% of the Shares offered are sold:

If 50% of the Shares offered are sold:

If 100% of the Shares offers are sold:

The precise amounts that we will devote to each of the foregoing items, and the timing of expenditures, will vary depending on numerous factors.

As indicated in the table above, if we sell only 25% or 50% of the shares offered for sale in this Offering, we would expect to use the resulting net proceeds for the same purposes as we would use the net proceeds from a sale of 100% of the shares, and in approximately the same proportions, until such time as such use of proceeds would leave us without working capital reserve. At that point we would expect to modify our use of proceeds by limiting our expansion, leaving us with the working capital reserve indicated.

The expected use of net proceeds from this Offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve and change. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures, specifically with respect to working capital, may vary significantly depending on numerous factors. The precise amounts that we will devote to each of the foregoing items, and the timing of expenditures, will vary depending on numerous factors. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this Offering.

In the event we do not sell all of the shares being offered, we may seek additional financing from other sources in order to support the intended use of proceeds indicated above. If we secure additional equity funding, investors in this Offering would be diluted. In all events, there can be no assurance that additional financing would be available to us when wanted or needed and, if available, on terms acceptable to us.

DILUTION

If you purchase shares in this Offering, your ownership interest in our Common Stock will be diluted immediately, to the extent of the difference between the price to the public charged for each share in this Offering and the net book value per share of our Common Stock after this Offering.

Our historical net book value as of September 30, 2018 was  $(172,799) or $(0.0009)  per then-outstanding share of our Common Stock. Historical net book value per share equals the amount of our total assets less total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding, all as of the date specified.

The following table illustrates the per share dilution to new investors discussed above, assuming the sale of, respectively, 100%, 50% and 25% of the shares offered for sale in this Offering (after deducting estimated offering expenses of $400,000, $200,000 and $100,000, respectively):

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, the Company’s President, CEO, CFO, Secretary and Chairman of the Board, Mr. Jeffrey J. Parker, provided advances to the Company for working capital purposes for a total of $73,978 in related party advances currently outstanding due upon demand. On March 27, 2018, the Company issued an 5% unsecured promissory note to Mr. Parker in the amount of $73,978. As of June 7, 2018, $73,978 was outstanding with accrued interest of $719.51 which is reflected as accounts payable and notes payable – related party in the accompanying unaudited balance sheets. Please  see  Note- 9.2 Related party balances for further information.

On April 15, 2018, the Company issued 7,500,000 shares of its common stock to Jeffrey J. Parker for his acceptance of the roles of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman of the Board. Mr. Parker was not required to purchase the shares thus his cost basis is $0. On the date of issuance, the Company’s common stock closed at $.05, which equates to a valuation of $375,000. If the same number of shares were to be purchased through the Company’s offering statement, the cost basis to the purchaser would be $.05 per share for a total of $375.000.

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

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of our operations together with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Offering Circular. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations, whose actual outcomes involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those stated in or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors”, “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and elsewhere in this Offering Circular. Please see the notes to our Financial Statements for information about our Critical Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The Company has not had material revenues from operations in each of the last two fiscal years.

Under its most recent business model, the Company operated as a travel related services company throughout Asia, , including online travel platforms and services, online hotel and flights booking and reservation services, managing and operating hotels including Zhuhai Tengda Business Hotel and Tengda Mansion.

In March 2018, the Board of Directors elected to shift the Company’s business model to concentrate on business opportunities within blockchain technology. Square Chain Corporation  has designed a multi-faceted business model to take advantage of the significant emerging opportunities being developed utilizing blockchain technology. The opportunities we have identified to date cross many industries such as finance, shipping and healthcare just to name a few, which will help minimize our exposure to any single sector. We have associated ourselves with leading experts in the field of blockchain technologies, allowing for a broad overview of exciting applications being developed. Our ability to identify applications having significant market potential early in their development will allow for investment opportunities for Square Chain Corporation that will help drive our growth. The Company’s plan to enter the new and exciting blockchain technology sector will be through acquisitions, joint ventures, equity stakes and eventually through in-house development.

The Company’s plan to enter the new and exciting blockchain technology sector will be through acquisitions, joint ventures, equity stakes and eventually through in-house development.

Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve Months

The Company believes that the proceeds of this Offering will satisfy its cash requirements for the next twelve months. To complete the Company’s entire development plan, it may have to raise additional funds in the next twelve months.

The Company may make significant changes in the number of employees at the corporate level, as well as retaining the services of software developers as contract labor or employees.

Investments.  The Company intends to make substantial investment in its blockchain business segment either through acquisitions, joint ventures, retaining software developers or a combination thereof.

Marketing and sales.  The Company will incur substantial marketing and sales expenses which will consist primarily of salaries, and benefits for our employees engaged in sales, sales support, marketing, business development, and customer service functions. Our marketing and sales expenses also include marketing and promotional expenditures.

Cost of revenue.  The Company expects that the cost of revenue for its operations will consist primarily of expenses associated with the development and distribution of our products. These include expenses related to providing products and services and salaries and benefits for employees on our operations teams.

Research and development.  The Company will continue to engage in research and development expenses. These will consist primarily of salaries, and benefits for employees who are responsible for building new products as well as improving existing products. We will expense all of our research and development costs as they are incurred.

General and administrative.  The majority of our general and administrative expenses will consist of salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation for certain of our executives as well as our legal, finance, human resources, corporate communications and policy employees, and other administrative employees. In addition, general and administrative expenses include professional and legal services. The Company expects to incur substantial expenses in marketing the current Offering, in closing sales, and in promoting and managing its operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

In the ordinary course of our business, we are not exposed to market risk of the sort that may arise from changes in interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates, or that may otherwise arise from transactions in derivatives.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the fair value of the Company’s common stock, stock-based compensation, the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.

Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management, in consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

Upon completion of this offering, we will not be subject to current and periodic reporting requirements. As a Regulation A, Tier 1 issuer, we will not be subject to the periodic and current reporting requirements under Rule 257(b) of Regulation A.

BUSINESS

Square Chain Corporation (“Square Chain”), sometimes referred to herein as “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” and/or “Square Chain Corporation” was incorporated under the laws of the State of Arizona on November 14, 1994 under the name of Piranha Interactive Publishing, Inc. On November 22, 1996, the Company reincorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada and effected a forward split of its common stock on a basis of approximately 242 shares of the Nevada corporation for each share of the Arizona corporation. On October 28, 2009, the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation effectively changing the name of the corporation to Piranha Ventures, Inc. On November 21, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the corporation to Realgold International, Inc. On May 16, 2013, the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada changing its name from Realgold International, Inc. to Asia Travel Corporation. On March 8, 2018, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Nevada to effectively change the name of the Company to Square Chain Corporation.

The trading symbol for our Common Stock is ‘SQCC.” Our previous trading symbol was “ATSR” prior to our filing a name change with the State of NV and an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority in March 2018.

Our Business

Under its most recently discontinued business model, the Company carried out business operations through its prior wholly owned Hong Kong subsidiary Asia Travel Ltd (Hong Kong) (formerly named “Realgold Venture Pte Limited”) and its affiliated entities in China including Zhuhai Tengda International Travel Agency Co., Ltd and Zhuhai Tengda Business Hotel Co., Ltd. Through its subsidiary and affiliated entities, Square Chain Corporation provided travel related services throughout Asia, including online travel platforms and services, online hotel and flights booking and reservation services, managing and operating hotels including Zhuhai Tengda Business Hotel and Tengda Mansion. Asia Travel Corporation’s business model is unique as it generates revenues from diverse revenue streams by providing various travel services and acquiring various assets, which distinguishes Asia Travel Corporation from other travel service providers and put it at the competitive edge.

In March 2018, the Board of Directors elected to shift the Company’s business model to concentrate on business opportunities within blockchain technology. Square Chain has designed a multi-faceted business model to take advantage of the significant emerging opportunities being developed utilizing blockchain technology. The opportunities we have identified to date cross many industries such as real estate, finance, shipping/logistics and healthcare. We have associated ourselves with leading experts in the field of blockchain technologies, allowing for a broad overview of exciting software applications with significant opportunities for in-house development. The applications we have identified early in their development will drive our growth.

Through the operations of its blockchain business segment, Square Chain Corporation believes it can develop direct business relationships and opportunities to participate in operating projects that directly benefit from blockchain technology .

Unlike most companies pivoting into the blockchain space, Square Chain Corporation is not pursuing ownership in cryptocurrencies or tokens. Likewise, Square Chain has no plans to pursue, or participate, in any type of an ICO. We do not have the management systems in place to manage the custodial obligations coins and tokens present. Furthermore, the Company has no plans to enter the increasingly crowded arena of cryptocurrency mining.

Our goal is to develop blockchain applications internally, participate in third party blockchain application development and invest in companies developing blockchain applications that solve real world industry pain points for specific businesses. Our revenue will be derived from the sale of our blockchain applications through B to B software distribution channels, monetizing investments in blockchain applications developed by third parties and participating in business opportunities via joint ventures or partnerships with existing companies that can benefit from blockchain applications we provide.

The company has identified an industry that has the potential to take advantage of the capabilities and goals of blockchain technology. We have had preliminary discussions with an expert and current 30-year participant in the direct response television industry (DRTV) to conduct a study to determine potential blockchain applications that can solve operational pain points in his business, as well as the industry in general. The areas of interest for this study that can determine a successful DRTV program include:

Within these areas of interest of a successful DRTV program, we will be particularly interested in the areas of inbound call centers and the integrity of the ordering process, customer data integrity, fulfillment logistics, including inventory management, global supply chain issues and payment systems.

Upon funding, we will commence a white paper study project by hiring a blockchain consulting group already identified to conduct a thorough review of the DRTV business mentioned above. The study will include extensive discussions with the DRTV’s management team to gain a detailed perspective about their business operations, including in depth details of particular pain points that can be improved upon through blockchain technology. We have determined that this white paper study will take 30 to 60 days and cost an estimated $12,000 - $18,000.

If the study concludes that blockchain technology applications can be developed to address these operational challenges, then we would begin the process of hiring a blockchain applications developer to develop an application, or multiple applications, incorporating the solutions. If the application(s) proves to be successful, then Square Chain could market the product(s) to other industry participants.

Secondarily, as part of this study, Square Chain is in exploratory discussions with the local identified company to participate in a DRTV product and product launch. This would allow us to actively participate in the entire DRTV process, offering us the insight to know the industry needs inside and out, and increasing the likelihood of a successful blockchain application(s) product(s) roll out to the industry.

The estimated cost for a DRTV project is $175,000. The components of this investment would include:

Square Chain Corporation will acquire the worldwide sales and marketing rights for the product to be sold for the initial test program and, assuming success of the initial test, will launch the product nationally and internationally through traditional DRTV sales and marketing channels. These channels include infomercials, US TV shopping networks, international TV shopping networks, Facebook and traditional retail stores.

The product has been identified and is in the cookware product category. The proposed partner for this project has been a well-known participant within the DRTV industry for over 30 years and has successfully managed many projects in this product category, as well as numerous other categories. This deep experience, along with extensive industry contacts will help the company to mitigate some of the risks associate with a traditional start-up company.

Upon funding the parties will move rapidly to conclude negotiations and start both the blockchain white paper study and the actual DRTV product launch.

The challenges we will encounter with our initial project and beyond will include:

Blockchain Incubator

As part of the Company’s business plan to identify key talent and emerging blockchain concepts, the company will continue to participate in blockchain related networking opportunities. There is a growing and thriving community of blockchain application developers in our local market looking to associate themselves with a company such as Square Chain to complete product development and bring these products to market.

At present, the Company is working closely with a local blockchain incubator to identify developers looking for employment opportunities in blockchain software and app development. The incubator is a blockchain technology education, co-work and development center. It is their mission to provide an amazing space for innovation in the world’s most exciting and fast-moving industry. They are a collaborative space for blockchain technology educators, innovators, and startups.

The company plans to develop a network of entrepreneurs, advisors, and limited partners who are on the front lines of this fast-moving sector of Fintech. Management firmly believes that Blockchain technology is a profound invention that offers a better, faster, cheaper way to move money and exchange assets without counterparty risk.

In-House Blockchain Application Development

Concurrent to becoming a member of the incubator, the Company will conduct an extensive search for in-house Ethereum blockchain software application developers. The company intends to develop in-house applications to take advantage of the ever-expanding opportunities for blockchain platforms in several industries as highlighted below.

One of the Company’s conceptual blockchain applications is focused on the construction industry.  The construction industry lags behind other industries in research and development (R&D) investment. R&D investments for mature US companies are typically around 3.5% of sales. For some industries such as aerospace that number can be 7% to 14%. However, the construction industry only reinvests 0.5% of sales. The reasons for the low reinvestment vary but are generally due to costs and complexity. Most construction firms are small (less than 10 employees) and operate on thin profit margins. So, technology spending is often seen as an unaffordable luxury.

The Company’s conceptual construction blockchain application will be an integrated family of software applications that support the entire building lifecycle from conception, to construction, to facility management. The suite will support the needs of small contractors by offering: online collaboration, digital takeoff, estimating, and project and property management capabilities, all presented in a format that’s easy to understand and use.

Upon funding, the company plans to hold discussions with business leaders in industry categories where we feel blockchain can have the most immediate impact, like our DRTV project. Our approach working within other industries will likely mirror our outcome with the DRTV project. This unique approach will allow for revenues to be derived from both the opportunities created by developing blockchain applications for sale within the target industry, plus the more traditional revenue streams of the existing business models. To help minimize risks, the company will partner with reputable and successful partners with a long history of working within the targeted industries and will utilize their management expertise.

Third Party Blockchain Application Development

The Company may elect to co-develop, fund late stage development or acquire certain blockchain applications. There are currently several blockchain software applications being developed utilizing the Ethereum open-source, public, blockchain-based distributed computing platform and operating system featuring smart contract functionality. As these applications approach their final stages of development, we will conduct a comprehensive business analysis of each to determine which we feel best suits our company goals.

One such product under current review is dedicated to payment systems that allows users to take advantage of blockchain’s invaluable traits. The history of being able to purchase, receive and use blockchain based tokens has been a difficult and bumpy one. Though much progress has been made, there are still only a few on-ramps (exchanges, word of mouth) into owning blockchain tokens. Not only that, but those who seek to purchase tokens from exchanges are a self-selecting group - generally technical and early adopters.

The vision for this product is to make it as easy as possible to create applications that use cryptocurrency, particularly for mobile. As a result, above the protocol layer, the team will build an open source mobile iOS and Android SDK. These SDK’s will be built with a plugin system in mind - since it is infeasible for the team to support every cryptocurrency, the aim is to make it as simple as possible to add your own.

This way, developers will have easy access to the infrastructure provided by this program. There will be a well defined set of interfaces in the mobile SDK’s that developers will have to adhere to. This includes methods like createWallet(), createTransaction(), signTransaction() and sendTransaction(). The networking of accessing Relay Nodes will be taken care of, and the developer can focus on building their mobile application that leverages whichever cryptocurrency they wish.

The Relay Node software is also part of the middleware layer. This includes easy creation of a REST API endpoint to receive and relay transactions sent by the mobile SDK’s. It will be a simple npm install and run on a server of your choice.

To generate revenue from this type of investment, Square Chain would have to negotiate a royalty-based fee paid upon each software license the application developer sells or monetize the investment through the liquidation of its ownership stake sometime in the future.

As part of its investment in third party application developers, Square Chain Corporation will endeavor to negotiate a board of director’s position, advisory board position or other type of management oversight role to help ensure the success of these opportunities. This can be accomplished by seeking out and retaining, through our various networks, the appropriate subject matter experts to oversee the investments we anticipate.

Risks to Our Business Model

A common risk of our multi-faceted business model is being able to identify products that will sell and create revenue for Square Chain Corporation. Our approach to working with managers and software developers with many years of experience and a deep understanding of their respective areas of expertise, including the ability to identify successful products and emerging trends, will help us to mitigate certain risks associated with our strategy. We will not move forward on developing a software application, an investment in a third-party software developer, or a DRTV product launch unless we feel very confident of the product or the partners we may seek to establish a relationship with for future or current projects.

Retaining Key Personnel

Upon funding, the Company will look to retain key personnel that fit into the culture of the company. Positions to be filled include software developers, marketing and sales, executive assistant, graphic artists and a Treasurer.

In addition, the Company will form an Advisory Committee to be filled by leaders within the blockchain sector. The Company is in discussion with several forward thinking blockchain advocates well known on the lecture circuit.

Acquisitions

As part of the Company’s growth strategy, it will seek to identify investment and acquisition candidates that will be immediately accretive to earnings. In looking at potential “target” companies, the Company:

Target Markets

Square Chain Corporation’s investment strategy will focus on best in class software applications utilizing blockchain technology platforms. Our focus will be across several industry sectors that are incorporating blockchain technology into their business practices and processes. According to a 2015 World Economic Forum survey of 800 executives and information and communications technology sector experts, 57.9 percent of the respondents believe that 10 percent of the global GDP information will be stored on blockchain technology by 2025, thus creating significant long-term investment opportunities for Square Chain Corporation.

The blockchain market size is expected to grow from USD 241.9 Million in 2016 to USD 7,683.7 Million by 2022, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 79.6%. The major growth drivers of the market include the increasing demand for distributed ledger technology, reduced total cost of ownership, rising cryptocurrencies market cap and initial coin offerings, increasing demand for simplified business processes and creating transparency and immutability, faster transactions and increasing adoption of Blockchain-as-a-Service.

Examples of target markets include:

DRTV

Applications for Blockchain in Ecommerce

The blockchain ecommerce marketplace is becoming an economic ecosystem in its own right. As the online sales industry continues to both grow and adopt distributed ledger technology, the number of ways sellers can serve their customers — and their bottom line — will multiply. For now, here are just a few applications for blockchain technology in ecommerce.

Smart Contracts

Smart contracts represent the most popular add-on feature of any blockchain. Basically, a smart contract is a relatively small computer program that can be stored on a blockchain, and which can automate certain tasks according to preset rules.

The power if these special blocks of code makes it easy to automate nearly any ecommerce-related process, freeing up staff to market and grow the business.

Inventory Control

One application that can use smart contracts is inventory control. By incorporating smart contracts into the blockchain, not only can inventory items be decremented from inventory as with some standard shopping carts, but replacement stock can be ordered when pre-defined thresholds are reached. A host of other functions can be automated to ensure that an online store never runs out of product, and at the same time ensuring that excess inventory is not accumulated.

Product Description Database

Making product descriptions and related images available to customers is a time-consuming and costly part of running an online store. Blockchain technology allows this information to be efficiently shared between suppliers, your online store, and with content creators.

Loyalty Rewards Software

Again, thanks to the power and versatility of smart contracts, customer loyalty reward programs can be totally automated within a blockchain. Since records of every purchase are stored in the chain, it is easy to have a smart contract offer a discount, or to issue reward points to customers as they surpass certain spending thresholds.

Supply Chain Tracking

An online store can live or die depending on the reliability of its supply chain. Not only does the store operator need to know what stock is in the pipeline and when it will arrive, but it is also crucial for them to make sure vendors are supplying the exact products ordered. The problem of fraud in the supply chain can result in inferior products being delivered, or even those with safety-related issues.

By using the blockchain to track the supply chain, ecommerce companies can ensure that vendors do not substitute products without notice, and that transparency is maintained throughout the process.

Advantages of Blockchain in Ecommerce

Cyberthreats, stifling competition, and ever changing user expectations are daily realities for every online retailer. For all but the largest sellers, the battle can not only become one of profitability, but survival. Ecommerce sites that are still standing in the years ahead will be those that adapted to these challenges early on — like now.

Although there is no shortage of ecommerce solutions on the market, blockchain technology is uniquely suited to solve many of the ills facing e-retailers. Let’s look at three of the greatest advantages blockchain offers the ecommerce industry, before we move on to see how these can be applied in real applications.

Security

Distributed ledger technology (DLT) offers the highest level of security available for online database platforms. Although there have been instances where vulnerabilities in smart contact coding resulted in fraud, there have been no verified breaches of a major blockchain backbone framework.

Since one data breach can cost an online retailer millions in revenue, and loss of future market share, blockchain offers a level of security that retailers cannot afford to do without.

Integration with Business Processes

Blockchain is not limited to processing online payments. Part of the reason for the growth of DLT is its power to interface with new and existing systems. For the ecommerce vendor, this can mean tie-ins between the online store and a multitude of internal and external systems, processes, and partners.

By providing a shared ledger that serves the company, the online store, and external entities, a wealth of opportunities becomes available for the vendor that are only possible with blockchain.

Cost Reduction

Cost reduction has become a buzzword for selling just about everything from software to socks, but blockchain delivers on this promise.

The ability to combine payment processing, inventory management, product images and descriptions, with other business processes means fewer systems to maintain, less need for IT support staff, and fewer administrative tasks to be performed.

Maintaining even a small online store is a 24/7/365 job. The power of blockchain enables online vendors to spend more time running their business and less time running their online store.

Real Estate

Technology and real estate experts alike say blockchain technology has an important place in the commercial real estate market (CRE) with its ability to streamline processes, reduce fraud and cut costs (and middlemen). Real Estate is the largest asset class in the world, and also one of the most inefficient. Our aim is to seek out best in class applications and technology solutions serving the $217+ trillion global real-estate market with 2017 volume of $1.4 trillion.

Until recently, blockchain was known more as the technology powering Bitcoin. However, industry players now realize that blockchain-based smart contracts can play a much larger role in CRE, potentially transforming core CRE operations such as property transactions (purchase, sale, financing, leasing, and management). Over time, blockchain adoption can have a broader impact, as it can be linked to public utility services such as smart parking, waste, water, and energy billing, and also enable data-driven city management.

According to Goldman Sachs estimates, blockchain driven property records could drive up to $4bn in cost savings due to reductions in headcount and actuarial risk in the US alone.

Finance

What blockchain can do for the financial and banking industry:

Blockchain technology can potentially disrupt the financial industry that we know and use today. Here are just a few examples of how blockchain technology can transform the finance and banking industry.

Fraud Reduction

Even though blockchain is new technology, its potential to reduce fraud in the financial world is getting a lot of attention since 45% of financial intermediaries such as stock exchanges and money transfer services suffer from economic crime every year. Most banking systems around the world are built on a centralized database that is more vulnerable to cyberattack because it has one point of failure rather than many—once hackers breach the one system they have full access. The blockchain is essentially a distributed ledger where each block contains a timestamp and holds batches of individual transactions with a link to a previous block. This technology would eliminate some of the current crimes being perpetuated online today against our financial institutions.

Payments

Blockchain disruption could be highly transformative in the payments process. It would enable higher security and lower costs for banks to process payment between organizations and their clients and even between banks themselves. In the current reality, there are a lot of intermediaries in the payment processing system, but blockchain would eliminate the need for a lot of them.

Trading Platforms

It’s exciting to contemplate the changes that might occur with our trading platforms if they relied on blockchain-based technology. There’s no doubt that the risk of operational errors and fraud would be dramatically reduced. NASDAQ and the Australian Securities Exchange are already exploring blockchain solutions to reduce costs and improve efficiencies.

Logistics and Transportation

Blockchain, the technology behind the digital asset and payment system Bitcoin - has the potential to transform the supply chain. From conducting payment and audits to tracking inventory and assets, blockchain technology will enable greater supply chain efficiency than ever before.

How Will Blockchain Technology Affect the Supply Chain?

If blockchain technology allows us to more securely and transparently track all types of transactions, imagine the possibilities it presents across the supply chain.

Every time a product changes hands, the transaction could be documented, creating a permanent history of a product, from manufacture to sale. This could dramatically reduce time delays, added costs, and human error that plague transactions today.

Some supply chains are already using the technology, and experts suggest blockchain could become a universal “supply chain operating system” before long. Consider how this technology could improve the following tasks:

Benefits in a Nutshell:

Regardless of the application, blockchain offers shippers the following advantages:

Milestones and Budget

We have the created the following milestones and budgets. It is important to note that achievement of these milestones and their budget targets is subject to substantial risk. Please  see  “ Risk Factors ” and “ Forward Looking Statements.”

Competition

Square Chain Corporation is pursuing a business strategy with unique characteristics compared to peer companies. Nevertheless, in addition to Square Chain Corporation, there are several other companies developing blockchain applications; and acquiring blockchain application developers.

Our potential competitors may have greater resources, better access to capital, longer histories, more intellectual property and lower cost operations.

They may secure better terms during the investment negotiation process, make strategic decisions more quickly than us and devote more capital to better performing investments than we do.

Other companies also may enter into business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions.

Growth Issues

Service Delivery Controls

When awarded contracts that require additional resources, Square Chain Corporation will utilize its list of available consultants with expertise in the required areas. The collaborative nature of our professionals, coupled with our low overhead approach of hiring consultants on an as- needed basis creates challenges in the delivery of quality services and deliverables. Square Chain Corporation realizes that not everyone will share our vision, values, and methods.

In addition, Square Chain Corporation understands that as more blockchain applications come online it becomes increasingly difficult to monitor projects and communicate information to our consultants.

Because Square Chain Corporation utilizes exhaustive interviewing, stringent candidate selection and referrals from trusted advisors there is a reasonable confidence that the majority of our concerns will be eliminated through these processes. Square Chain Corporation will enter into agreements with consultants and contractors who demonstrate a bold commitment to representing the core values of Square Chain Corporation in an effective manner.

Scalability

The ability to reproduce our proven system on a massive scale is a concern of Square Chain Corporation. Every site is unique and presents different challenges. Such factors can negatively impact the growth and consistency of our methods and will ultimately challenge our ability to replicate our initial success. This will directly impact how fast Square Chain Corporation can scale its operations.

Insufficient Capital

Currently Square Chain Corporation is confronted with the need to attract and retain a consistent investment source in order to grow our operations rapidly. If Square Chain Corporation is not funded properly it will prevent us from capturing the majority of the market.

To maintain our leadership role and first mover advantage in this space Square Chain Corporation is seeking funding from the capital markets which may include debt and equity offerings.

Sales Lead Time

Currently lead time for each project is estimated at ten (10) months. This reflects permitting, equipment ordering and delivery of and installation.

Marketing Strategy

Marketing Square Chain Corporation’s blockchain applications will be done through several different strategies. We plan to utilize third party software sales organizations primarily. For industry specific applications, we will incorporate industry trade show participation into our marketing program.

Seasonality

We do not expect any seasonality in our business.

Litigation

The Company has no current, pending or threatened legal proceedings or administrative actions either by or against the Company issuer that could have a material effect on the issuer’s business, financial condition, or operations and any current, past or pending trading suspensions

Employees

As of September 30, 2018, we had one employee, including officers and directors. We believe that we have been successful in attracting experienced and capable personnel. Our employee has entered agreements with us requiring him not to compete or disclose our proprietary information. Our employee is not represented by any labor union. We believe that relations with our employee are excellent.

Legal Proceedings

We may from time to time be involved in various claims and legal proceedings of a nature we believe are normal and incidental to temporary employee staffing business. These matters may include product liability, intellectual property, employment, personal injury cause by our employees, and other general claims. We will accrue for contingent liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Description of Property

We maintain an office in North Las Vegas, Nevada. We consider that this space is sufficient for our current needs.

Intellectual Property

We may rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret laws in the United States as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary technology, databases, and our brand. Despite these reliances, we believe the following factors are more essential to establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage:

We have a policy of requiring key employees and consultants to execute confidentiality agreements upon the commencement of an employment or consulting relationship with us. Our employee agreements also require relevant employees to assign to us all rights to any inventions made or conceived during their employment with us. In addition, we have a policy of requiring individuals and entities with which we discuss potential business relationships to sign non-disclosure agreements. Our agreements with clients include confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions.

Legal Proceedings

We may from time to time be involved in various claims and legal proceedings of a nature we believe are normal and incidental to our business. These matters may include product liability, intellectual property, employment, personal injury cause by our employees, and other general claims. We are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

INTEREST OF MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS IN CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, the Company’s President, CEO, CFO, Secretary and Chairman of the Board, Mr. Jeffrey J. Parker, provided advances to the Company for working capital purposes for a total of $73,978 in related party advances currently outstanding due upon demand. On March 27, 2018, the Company issued an 5% unsecured promissory note to Mr. Parker in the amount of $73,978. As of June 7, 2018, $73,978 was outstanding with accrued interest of $719.51 which is reflected as accounts payable and notes payable – related party in the accompanying unaudited balance sheets. Please  see  Note- 9.2 Related party balances for further information.

On April 15, 2018, the Company issued 7,500,000 shares of its common stock to Jeffrey J. Parker for his acceptance of the roles of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman of the Board. Mr. Parker was not required to purchase the shares thus his cost basis is $0. On the date of issuance, the Company’s common stock closed at $.05, which equates to a valuation of $375,000. If the same number of shares were to be purchased through the Company’s offering statement, the cost basis to the purchaser would be $.05 per share for a total of $375.000.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not intend to declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

SECURITIES OFFERED

Square Chain Corporation (“Square Chain Corporation,” “We,” or the “Company”) is offering up to $4,000,000 total of Securities, consisting of Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock” or collectively the “Securities”).

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Securities Being Offered

The following is a summary of the rights of our capital stock as provided in our articles of incorporation and bylaws. For more detailed information, please see our articles of incorporation and bylaws, which have been filed as exhibits to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular is a part.

General

Market capital structure:

Preferred stock

The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Preferred stock, par value $.001. The Company has designated two series of Preferred stock as of the date of this filing.

Series A

On November 2, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation designating 20,000 shares of convertible preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock whose par value is $.001. The Company shall be authorized to issue up to 20,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote as a separate and as a single class with the common stock with each share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to 1000 shares of common stock for voting purposes. Holders shall have the right to convert each share of Series A Preferred Stock into 1000 shares of common stock.

Accounting for the Series A Preferred Stock

The Series A Preferred Stock has been classified as permanent equity as there was no redemption provision at the option of the holders. The Company evaluated the embedded conversion feature in its Series A Preferred Stock to determine if there was an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. The Company concluded that the embedded conversion feature of the Series A Preferred Stock is not required to be bifurcated because the conversion feature is clearly and closely related to the host instrument. The Company believes the economic risks and characteristics of the Series A Preferred Stock itself and the common stock the embedded conversion feature allows the Investor to convert into have similar economic risks and characteristics.

Series B

On March 6, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the designation of a Series B Super Voting Preferred stock whose par value is $.001. Under the terms of the designation, shares of Series B Super Voting Preferred stock, the Company is authorized to issue 10,000 shares. Holders of the Series B Super Voting Preferred stock have no conversion features. Holders of Series B Preferred stock have voting rights equal to 20 times the sum of: i) the total number of shares of Common stock which are issued and outstanding at the time of voting, plus ii) the total number of shares of all Series of Preferred stocks which are issued and outstanding at the time of voting. All shares of the Series B Super Voting Preferred Stock shall rank (i) senior to the Corporation’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share and any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created.

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 990,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.001.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote as a separate and as a single class with the common stock with each share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to 1000 shares of common stock for voting purposes. Holders shall have the right to convert each share of Series A Preferred Stock into 1000 shares of common stock.

Accounting for the Series A Preferred Stock
