Credex Corporation. is offering 41,007,500 shares of its common stock at a price of $0.20 per share. This is our initial public offering and no public market exists for our shares. The offering is being conducted on a self-underwritten basis, which means our officer and director will attempt to sell the shares. This Prospectus will permit our officer and director to sell the shares directly to the public, with no commission or other remuneration payable to him for any shares he may sell. He will sell the shares and intends to offer them to friends, relatives, acquaintances and business associates. In offering the securities on our behalf, he will rely on the safe harbor from broker-dealer registration set out in Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

 

We intend to open a standard, non-interest bearing, escrow account to be used only for the deposit of funds received from the sale of the shares in this offering. Such funds will be released to us and/or a joint venture partner of ours in order to make certain payments in connection with the acquisition of certain timber assets and the preparation of reports relating thereto, in accordance with an escrow agreement described in this prospectus.

 

Credex Corporation is a development stage company and currently has no operations. Any investment in the shares offered herein involves a high degree of risk. You should only purchase shares if you can afford a loss of your investment. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY READ THIS ENTIRE PROSPECTUS AS WELL AS DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE, ESPECIALLY THE SECTION OF THIS PROSPECTUS ENTITLED “RISK FACTORS”, BEGINNING ON PAGE 4, BEFORE BUYING ANY SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK. Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion for Credex Corporation, which includes a statement expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights certain information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. It is not exhaustive and may not contain all of the information that you should consider before making your investment decision. We encourage you to read this prospectus and the documents to which we refer in their entirety before making a decision to invest, including the information set forth under the heading “Risk Factors.” Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, references in this prospectus to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “Credex,” “our” or other similar terms mean Credex Corporation.

 

Overview

 

Credex, a Florida corporation, was formed on September 2, 2005. The Company was formed for the purpose of raising the necessary funds for purchasing, servicing, managing and reselling of non-performing (defaulted) unsecured credit card debt portfolios to be acquired from financial institutions and distressed debt wholesalers. Since its inception, the Company derived no revenues and no income from such business and as result as of December 31, 2012, had an accumulated deficit of $309,281.

 

5
 

 

On November 12, 2013, the Company decided to pursue a new business opportunity and entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with Kirida Resources Inc. (“Kirida”), to pursue and implement forestry management programs in emerging market countries. Kirida is a Canadian company that has options to manage forests in Papua New Guinea, Liberia and Cameroon. Kirida has a team of professional forestry management experts to implement harvesting programs as per international environmental standards with reforestation programs and product certifications. The Company is currently reviewing forestry management and harvesting projects with Kirida. Based on its review, the Company intends to decide whether to pursue certain opportunities based on several factors including revenue potential.

 

Other than the MOU, we currently have no agreements and do not anticipate entering into any such agreements until we complete this offering. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to develop our business operations. See “Business” and “Use of Proceeds.” We are a development stage company with no revenues or operating history. Our address is 848 Rainbow Blvd, # 2096 Las Vegas, Nevada 89107. The telephone number is 801-243-5661. While our address is in Nevada, our sole officer and director currently operates our business from Utah without an office and through the use of phone and email.

 

The Company has attempted to attract private placement investments in the past. Thus far, the Company has not been able to implement its plans or begin operations because it has not been successful in raising the equity capital necessary to implement such plans.

 

There is no current public market for our securities. As our stock is not publicly traded, investors should be aware they probably will be unable to sell their shares and their investment in our securities is not liquid.

 

At the present time, we are classified as a “shell company” under Rule 405 of the Securities Act Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. As such, all restricted securities presently held by the affiliates of our company may not be resold in reliance on Rule 144 until: (1) we file Form 10 information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) when we cease to be a “shell company”; (2) we have filed all reports as required by Section 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Act for twelve consecutive months; and (3) one year has elapsed from the time we file the current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting our status as an entity that is not a shell company.

 

We are an Emerging Growth Company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act. We shall continue to be deemed an emerging growth company until the earliest of: (A) the last day of the fiscal year of the Company during which it had total annual gross revenues of $1,000,000,000 (as such amount is indexed for inflation every 5 years by the SEC to reflect the change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, setting the threshold to the nearest 1,000,000) or more; (B) the last day of the fiscal year of the Company following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common equity securities of the Company pursuant to an effective registration statement under this title; (C) the date on which the Company has, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1,000,000,000 in non-convertible debt; or (D) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer”, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1939, or any successor thereto.

 

As an emerging growth company, we are exempt from Section 404(b) of Sarbanes Oxley. Section 404(a) requires issuers to publish information in their annual reports concerning the scope and adequacy of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. Section 404(b) requires that the independent registered public accounting firm of such issuers, in the same report, attest to and report on the assessment on the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. As an emerging growth company, our independent registered public accounting firm will not attest to or report on the effectiveness of our internal controls.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR BUSINESS

 

We are a development stage company and have no operating history. An investment in the shares offered herein is highly risky and could result in a complete loss of your investment if we are unsuccessful in our business plan.

 

Credex was incorporated on September 2, 2005 and we have not yet commenced any business operations. Until we are actually in the marketplace for a demonstrable period of time, it is impossible to determine if our business strategy will be viable or successful. Any such failure could result in the possible closure of our business or force us to seek additional capital through loans or additional sales of our equity securities to continue business operations, which would dilute the value of any shares you purchase in this offering.

 

Because our auditors have issued a going concern opinion, there is a substantial uncertainty that we will continue operations in which case you could lose your investment.

 

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion because of the Company’s losses, limited working capital and the absence of any current revenue-generating operations. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty about our ability to continue in business. As such we may have to cease operations and you could lose your entire investment.

 

We cannot predict when or if we will produce revenues, which could result in a total loss of your investment if we are unsuccessful in our business plans.

 

We have not yet implemented our business plan or offered our services. Therefore, we have not yet generated any revenues from operations. In order for us to continue with our plans and open our business, we must raise our initial capital to do so through this offering. The timing of the completion needed to commence operations and generate revenues is contingent on the success of this offering. There can be no assurance that we will generate revenues or that revenues will be sufficient to maintain our business. As a result, you could lose all of your investment if you decide to purchase shares in this offering and we are not successful in our proposed business plans.

 

Our business will be dependent on our ability to secure agreements with owners of forests. If we are unable to secure such agreements our business will be adversely affected.

 

If we are unable to secure agreements with the owners of forests, we may not be able to execute our business plan. We have no agreements of any kind at this time. If we are unable to secure and retain these agreements our business, financial condition and/or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. We also cannot provide assurances that if we are able to establish such agreements that we will be able to maintain these agreements, on acceptable terms, if at all, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Another important component of our success will be the ability to establish and maintain relationships with service providers, including loggers, among other parties. Any inability to establish these relationships or adverse changes in these relationships, including the inability of these parties to fulfill their obligations to us for any reason, could adversely affect our business.

Our success depends, in significant part, on global and regional timber markets and any factors that may have an adverse effect on such markets could have a material adverse effect on our proposed business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our plan is to develop and produce timber. Accordingly, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be directly affected by the demand for forestry products. Demand is subject to fluctuation, and adverse trends in the market could adversely affect our business. In addition, general economic conditions, consumer trends, work stoppages, natural disasters and terrorism could have a material adverse effect on our business. A protracted global recession could have a significant negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted.

 

The timber industry is highly competitive, which could adversely affect the company’s financial performance.

 

The timber industry is highly competitive. We will face significant competition from established national, regional and local forestry providers. There can be no assurance that if we are able to establish our business that will be able to compete successfully in the future with existing or potential competitors or that competition will not have an adverse effect on its business and financial condition.

 

We may not be able to adapt our business quickly enough to changing customer requirements and industry standards.

 

The timber industry is characterized by evolving industry standards, frequent production enhancements and changing customer demands. We may not be able to adapt quickly enough and/or in a cost-effective manner to changes in industry standards and customer requirements and preferences, and any failure to do so could adversely affect our business. We may be unable to devote financial resources to new technologies and systems in the future. Any failure on our part to modify or adapt to these trends could render our business competitively disadvantaged, which could adversely affect our business.

 

Any failure to comply with existing laws, rules and regulations as well as changing laws, rules and regulations and other legal uncertainties, could adversely affect our business.

 

We will be subject to a wide variety of statutes, rules, regulations, policies and procedures in various jurisdictions, which are subject to change at any time. For example, those laws, rules and regulations relating to deforestation, reforestation, reclamation and environmental conservation, which in some cases regulate the amount of, scope and nature of logging activity. New legislation of this nature is introduced from time to time in various (and is pending in certain) jurisdictions in which we to operate. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in fines and/or proceedings against us by governmental agencies and/or consumers, which if material, could adversely affect our business and results of operations. In addition, the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or manner in which we plan to operate and may require us to change certain aspects of our business plans to ensure compliance, which could decrease demand for timber, reduce revenues, increase costs and/or subject us to additional liabilities.

 

We may need to obtain additional financing if we fail to generate revenue in the anticipated timeframe. If we do not obtain such financing, we may have to reduce or cease our activities and investors could lose their entire investment.

 

9
 

 

Our business plan will be funded by the $8,201,500 raised in this offering. There is no assurance that we will operate profitably or generate positive cash flow in the future. We may require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in receiving revenues at the levels we anticipate. We currently do not have any arrangements for further financing other than the offering described in this prospectus, and we may not be able to obtain financing on commercially reasonable terms or terms that are acceptable to us or on any terms at all. Because of the worldwide economic downturn or because of other reasons, we may not be able to raise any additional funds that we require on favorable terms, if any. The failure to obtain necessary financing, if needed, may impair our ability to continue in business.

 

You may suffer significant dilution if we raise additional capital.

 

If we raise additional capital, we expect it will be necessary for us to issue additional equity or convertible debt securities. If we issue equity or convertible debt securities, the price at which we offer such securities may not bear any relationship to our value, the net tangible book value per share may decrease, the percentage ownership of our current stockholders would be diluted, and any equity securities we issue in such offering or upon conversion of convertible debt securities issued in such offering, may have rights, preferences or privileges with respect to liquidation, dividends, redemption, voting and other matters that are senior to or more advantageous than our common stock.

 

If we obtain debt financing, we will face risks associated with financing our operations.

 

If we obtain debt financing, we will be subject to the normal risks associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, and the risk that we will not be able to renew, repay, or refinance our debt when it matures or that the terms of any renewal or refinancing will not be as favorable as the existing terms of that debt. If we enter into secured lending facilities and are unable to pay our obligations to our secured lenders, they could proceed against any or all of the collateral securing our indebtedness to them or our other assets including the funds in the escrow account.

 

Our success is dependent on a limited number of key executives and Kirida Resources.

 

The success of our business strategy and our ability to operate profitably depends on the continued employment of our senior management team and the services of Kirida Resources. The loss of the services of one or more of these key parties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain our existing senior management or Kirida Resources, attract additional qualified executives or joint venture partners or adequately fill new senior management positions or vacancies created by expansion or turnover. We do not have employment agreements with our senior management team and we do not maintain key-person life insurance policies on their lives. The loss of any of our senior management or Kirida Resources or key personnel could seriously harm our business.

 

Mr. Heaton, the sole officer and director of the company, currently devotes approximately 5 hours per week to company matters. The company’s needs could exceed the amount of time or level he may have. this could result in a conflict of interest and his inability to properly manage company affairs, resulting in our remaining a start-up company.

 

We have not formulated a plan to resolve any possible conflict of interest with Mr. Heaton’s other business activities. In the event he is unable to fulfill any aspect of his duties to the Company or we are required to search for a replacement for Mr. Heaton we may experience a shortfall or complete lack of sales resulting in little or no profits and eventual closure of our business.

 

10
 

 

Our management has no experience in a public company setting. management decisions and choices may not take into account standard operating procedures required for a public company. as a result, we may have to suspend or cease activities which will result in the loss of your investment.

 

Mr. Heaton, our sole officer and director, has no experience as the principal executive officer or principal financial officer of a public company. Consequently our activities, earnings and ultimate success could suffer irreparable harm due to management’s lack of experience. As a result we may have to suspend or cease activities which will result in the loss of your investment.

 

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

 

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

 

If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, although we will lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1 billion, if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, or if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any December 31.

 

Because we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards for an “emerging growth company” our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business (JOBS)Act. This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates. Consequently, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates. Because our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates, investors may have difficulty evaluating or comparing our business, performance or prospects in comparison to other public companies, which may have a negative impact on the value and liquidity of our common stock.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS OFFERING

 

The trading in our shares will be regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15g-9 which establishes sales practices with respect to a “penny stock.”

 

The shares being offered are defined as a penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and rules of the SEC. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 (excluding the value of their primary residence) or annual income exceeding $200,000 ($300,000 jointly with spouse), or in transactions not recommended by the broker-dealer. For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver certain disclosures required by the SEC. Consequently, the penny stock rules may make it difficult for you to resell any shares you may purchase, if at all.

 

We are deemed as a “shell company” under the Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, so resale of our shares is not permitted under Rule 144(i) until 12 months after the Company is no longer considered a shell company.

 

We are deemed as a shell company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act defines a “shell company” as a registrant that has “nominal operations” and “assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets.” Our shell company status prevents investor to resell our shares under Rule 144(i) unless and until 12 months after we are no longer considered a shell company. We cannot predict that if and when we may no longer be considered as a shell company. Investors may be unable to liquidate their investment under Rule 144(i) for an indefinite long period of time.

 

Due to the lack of a trading market for our securities, you may have difficulty selling any shares you purchase in this offering.

 

We are not registered on any public stock exchange. There is presently no demand for our common stock and no public market exists for the shares being offered in this prospectus. Shares are able to be quoted on the Over-The-Counter Electronic Bulletin Board (OTCBB). The OTCBB is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last sale prices and volume information in over-the-counter (OTC) securities. The OTCBB is not an issuer listing service, market or exchange. Securities already quoted on the OTCBB that become delinquent in their required filings will be removed following a 30 to 60 day grace period if they do not make their required filing during that time. If no market is ever developed for our common stock, it will be difficult for you to sell any shares you purchase in this offering. In such a case, you may find that you are unable to achieve any benefit from your investment or liquidate your shares without considerable delay, if at all. In addition, if we fail to have our common stock quoted on a public trading market, your common stock will not have a quantifiable value and it may be difficult, if not impossible, to ever resell your shares, resulting in an inability to realize any value from your investment.

 

You will incur immediate and substantial dilution of the price you pay for your shares.

 

12
 

 

Upon completion of this offering the net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders (58,992,500 shares) will be increased without any additional investment on the part of existing shareholders. The purchasers of shares in this offering will incur immediate dilution (the difference between the net tangible book value per share and the offering price per share). As a result, after completion of the offering, the net tangible book value of the shares held by purchasers in this offering would be substantially less than the $0.20 price paid per share. See “Dilution.”

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

The offering price of the shares has been determined arbitrarily by us. The price does not bear any relationship to our assets, book value, earnings, or other established criteria for valuing a privately-held company. In determining the number of shares to be offered and the offering price, we took into consideration our cash on hand and the amount of money we would need to implement our business plans. Accordingly, the offering price should not be considered an indication of the actual value of the securities.

 

CAPITALIZATION

 

The following table shows our cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities and capitalization as of September 30, 2013 on an actual basis and on an as adjusted basis to reflect the sale of shares of our common stock offered, after deducting the estimated offering expenses.

 

This table should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the accompanying notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in the 2012 Form 10-K, the First Quarter Form, 10-Q, the Second Quarter Form 10-Q and the Third Quarter Form 10-Q.

DILUTION

 

Dilution represents the difference between the offering price and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this offering. Net tangible book value is the amount that results from subtracting total liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution arises mainly as a result of our arbitrary determination of the offering price of the shares being offered. Dilution of the value of the shares you purchase is also a result of the lower book value of the shares held by our existing shareholders.

 

As of September 30, 2013, the net tangible book value of our shares was $38,005 or $0.00064 per share, based upon 58,992,500 shares outstanding.

 

14
 

 

Upon completion of this offering, but without taking into account any change in the net tangible book value after completion of this offering other than that resulting from the sale of the shares and receipt of the total net proceeds of $8,181,500, the net tangible book value of the 100,000,000 shares to be outstanding will be $8,416,036, or approximately $0.081995 per share. Accordingly, the net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders (58,992,500 shares) will be increased by $0.08135 per share without any additional investment on their part. The purchasers of shares in this offering will incur immediate dilution (the difference between in the net tangible book value per share and the offering price of $0.20 (per share) of $0.118005 per share.

 

The following table illustrates the per share dilution to the new investors:

 

Public Offering Price Per Share  $0.20 
Net Tangible Book Value Prior to the offering  $0.00064 
Net Tangible Book Value After Offering  $0.081995 
Immediate Dilution per Share to New Investors  $0.118005 

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have never declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We currently expect to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and growth of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our Board, subject to compliance with applicable law and any contractual provisions, including under any agreements for indebtedness we may incur, that restrict or limit our ability to pay dividends, and will depend upon, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, earnings, capital requirements and other factors that our Board deems relevant.

 

 

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

 

The information appearing under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the 2012 Form 10-K, the First Quarter Form 10-Q, the Second Quarter 10-Q and the Third Quarter Form 10-Q, is hereby incorporated by reference.

 

BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

Credex, a Florida corporation, was formed on September 2, 2005. The Company was formed for the purpose of raising the necessary funds for purchasing, servicing, managing and reselling of non-performing (defaulted) unsecured credit card debt portfolios to be acquired from financial institutions and distressed debt wholesalers. Since its inception, the Company derived no revenues and no income from such business and as result as of December 31, 2012, had an accumulated deficit of $309,281.

 

15
 

 

On November 12, 2013, the Company decided to pursue a new business opportunity and entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with Kirida Resources Inc. (“Kirida”), to pursue and implement forestry management programs in emerging market countries. Kirida is a Canadian company that has options to manage forests in Papua New Guinea, Liberia and Cameroon. Kirida has a team of professional forestry management experts to implement harvesting programs as per international environmental standards with reforestation programs and product certifications. The Company is currently reviewing forestry management and harvesting projects with Kirida. Based on its review, the Company intends to decide whether to pursue certain opportunities based on several factors including revenue potential.

 

Other than the MOU, we currently have no agreements and do not anticipate entering into any such agreements until we complete this offering. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to develop our business operations. See “Business” and “Use of Proceeds.” We are a development stage company with no revenues or operating history. Our address is 848 Rainbow Blvd, # 2096 Las Vegas, Nevada 89107. The telephone number is 801-243-5661. While our address is in Nevada, our sole officer and director currently operates our business from Utah without an office and through the use of phone and email.

 

The Company has attempted to attract private placement investments in the past. Thus far, the Company has not been able to implement its plans or begin operations because it has not been successful in raising the equity capital necessary to implement such plans.

 

There is no current public market for our securities. As our stock is not publicly traded, investors should be aware they probably will be unable to sell their shares and their investment in our securities is not liquid.

 

At the present time, we are classified as a “shell company” under Rule 405 of the Securities Act Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. As such, all restricted securities presently held by the affiliates of our company may not be resold in reliance on Rule 144 until: (1) we file Form 10 information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) when we cease to be a “shell company”; (2) we have filed all reports as required by Section 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Act for twelve consecutive months; and (3) one year has elapsed from the time we file the current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting our status as an entity that is not a shell company.

 

We are an Emerging Growth Company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act. We shall continue to be deemed an emerging growth company until the earliest of: (A) the last day of the fiscal year of the Company during which it had total annual gross revenues of $1,000,000,000 (as such amount is indexed for inflation every 5 years by the SEC to reflect the change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, setting the threshold to the nearest 1,000,000) or more; (B) the last day of the fiscal year of the Company following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common equity securities of the Company pursuant to an effective registration statement under this title; (C) the date on which the Company has, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1,000,000,000 in non-convertible debt; or (D) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer”, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1939, or any successor thereto.

 

16
 

 

As an emerging growth company, we are exempt from Section 404(b) of Sarbanes Oxley. Section 404(a) requires issuers to publish information in their annual reports concerning the scope and adequacy of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. Section 404(b) requires that the independent registered public accounting firm of such issuers, in the same report, attest to and report on the assessment on the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. As an emerging growth company, our independent registered public accounting firm will not attest to or report on the effectiveness of our internal controls.

 

Memorandum of Understanding

 

The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Memorandum of Understanding with Kirida (the “MOU”) on November 12, 2013. The MOU was entered into for the purpose of financing, developing plans and ultimately creating a new jointly owned company to harvest, process, develop, produce and export timber-related products in Papua New Guinea and/or West Africa (“Project”). Under the MOU, the parties will initially seek a permit for a minimum of 100,000 acres with a minimum timber valuation of $25 million.

 

Under the MOU, the initial financing (largely generated by the net proceeds of this offering) will be used to complete a Timber Valuation Report and Forestry Management Plan (the “Report”), for certain consulting fees, financing costs, joint venture related costs, investor relation costs and other vendor payments.

 

The Report will be produced for the Project by Kirida’s forestry management team in collaboration with B.A. Blackwell & Associates Ltd, a Canadian forestry consultant. Kirida will compile all available Project data, create a Phase 1 report, conduct a site visit to perform timber production & processing review, conduct inventory assessment and finalize a Phase 2 report. To assist Kirida in its services, Kirida will pay Earth Wind and Power Corp (“EWP”), a Canadian consulting firm and shareholder of the Company up to $50,000 upon completion of financing of $5 million or more.

 

The Company agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to issue shares of its common stock to raise funds for the Project in three phases: $60,000 for the evaluation phase (Phase 1); $500,000 for the acquisition, design and business plan phase (Phase 2); and $5,000,000 for the production phase (Phase 3). Credex and Kirida will form a new legal entity in a jurisdiction to be determined to own the Project (the “Owner”). Credex will receive 90% of the equity of the Owner. Service Merchants Corp (a majority shareholder of Credex) will receive 10% of the equity of the Owner. Kirida will be entitled to receive up to 42% equity of the Owner upon the Owner acquiring an asset with a minimum value of $25 million.

 

The net profits of the Owner will be allocated on a basis of each of its equity holder’s ownership percentage.

 

Funds raised through this offering or any financing arranged by Kirida will be deposited in escrow and disbursed for Project costs by the escrow agent as agreed by Kirida and Credex.

 

The Project will be terminated and, if applicable, the Owner will be dissolved upon the earliest to occur of: completion of the Project and receipt of all sums due to Credex and Kirida, and payment for all performed and contributed services and/or products in connection with the Project; and/or; the mutual agreement of the parties.

 

17
 

 

If either party elects to terminate the MOU before all obligations are completed then the following applies: (a) if Credex elects to terminate the MOU, funds in escrow will be disbursed on a 58-42% basis between Credex and Kirida; (b) if Kirida elects to terminate the MOU, Kirida will pay Credex $50,000 to compensate for the work undertaken by Credex in furtherance of the Project; and (c) if there is an early termination by either of the parties all assets acquired pursuant to the MOU will be split on a 58-42% basis between Credex and Kirida, respectively.

 

Kirida will act as a project manager and will be responsible for the operational side of the Project and management and accounting of all financial expenditures and revenue collecting.

 

Any dispute arising out of the MOU will be resolved by binding arbitration.

 

Kirida Resources Inc.

 

Kirida is a Canadian company that has options to manage forests in Papua New Guinea, Liberia and Cameroon. Kirida has a team of professional forestry management experts to implement harvesting programs as per international environmental standards with reforestation programs and product certifications. Kirida has executed an agreement with local Cameroon permit holders to acquire and commence a sustainable and certified forestry management plan for 200,000 hectacres of forest.

 

The goal of Kirida’s forestry management program is to develop economically and environmentally sustainable reforestation programs.

 

Reforestation Programs

 

Papua New Guinea: Reforestation programs include teak plantations that could potentially provide forestry and revenue opportunities.

 

Cameroon: Reforestation program includes replanting harvested tree species to support vegetation growth and habitat.

 

Liberia: Reforestation program includes palm plantations to provide palm oil and, potentially, palm-based bio-diesel products.

 

The Papua New Guinea Timber Market

 

The Independent State of Papua New Guinea (“PNG”), is a country in Oceania that occupies the eastern half of the island of New Guinea (the western portion of the island is a part of the Indonesian provinces of Papua and West Papua) and numerous offshore islands. It is located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. The following information was collected from the Papua New Guinea Forest Authority (PNGFA) website http://www.forestry.gov.pg/site/index.php.

 

PNG’s real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was about K8,084.4 million in 2005. The contribution to this real GDP from the agriculture, forestry and fishing sector was estimated at K3,114.6 million or 38.5%. Using the relative values of exports generated by the forestry sector in 2005, this suggests that forestry’s contribution to real GDP in 2005 was as high as K742.2 million or 9.2 percent of total real GDP.

 

18
 

 

The forest industry has mainly been log export oriented. About two million cubic metres of tropical logs are exported annually making PNG the world’s second largest exporter of tropical logs after Malaysia. In 2005, the export of forest products represented 4.7 percent or K476.3 million of the value of all exports from PNG (K10,147.5 million) making forest products the largest non-mineral export from PNG in terms of value.

 

The forestry sector employs directly about 7,000 people with half working in logging operations and the other half employed in other activities such as veneer processing, timber processing, carpentry, supporting workshop/engineering services.

 

Downstream processing of forest products in PNG has for the last several years, been the fastest growing manufacturing sector of the economy. Log exports have declined by over 33 percent since the Asian currency crisis of 1997, and declined again in 2004 compared to 2003; this at a time when other exporting countries are increasing production and exports. On the other hand, exports of downstream processing products have increased by over 200 percent since 1997 (in US dollar value) and by almost 10 percent in 2004 compared to 2003.

 

The majority of the timber is exported. PNG logs are exported to 11 countries, all in the Asian region. More than 80 percent of log exports go to just China/Hong Kong, Korea and Japan. China is the principal market for round logs from PNG; it imported over one million cubic meters of logs from PNG in 2002 rising to 1.7 million cubic meters in 2005 accounting for 74.6 percent of PNG’s log exports. The major markets for processed and semi-finished products are Australia, New Zealand and various South Pacific countries. Veneer is predominantly exported to China and South Korea.

 

There are 29 forest concessions currently in production, covering a total area of 3.5 million hectares. Privately owned companies control all commercial timber production from natural forest areas. Companies that are directly or indirectly owned or controlled by Malaysian multinational companies dominate commercial timber production. Five companies control over 80 percent of the market.

 

The forestry sector has a high cost structure associated with both the technical nature of operations and administration of industry associated with the administration regime under the current legislation.

 

The cost structure associated with the technical aspects of forest relate to the vast land areas that are required to be covered with diverse terrain, weather pattern, ecological systems, type and quality of timber resources, and the highly depreciable nature of plants and equipment used to harvest the forest resources. The technical issues provide significant business cost changes to the industry.

 

Coupled with the above technical challenges the administration of the industry requires constant consultation with the various levels of governments, non-government organizations and most importantly the customary landowners. The lengthy consultation coupled with diverse and often opposing views of how the forest resources should be developed and managed by the stakeholders further compound costs of doing business in the industry.

 

Log scaling is an important aspect of logging and all log scalers operating in the PNG forest industry must be licensed. The procedure for obtaining a licence is detailed below.

 

An application is lodged to the Managing Director, in PNG Forest Authority regulation form 206 Application for Log Scalers License. With the application a log scaler’s certificate must be attached, two passport size photographs, a performance bond fee of K500 made to the National Forest Service in a bank check and a two-year license fee or registration fee of K200 also made out in a bank check to the National Forest Service.

 

19
 

 

Upon receipt of the application, it is registered and a license number is allocated. For the current log scalers a renewal fee of K200 is acceptable, if the employee has not left the company and has continually worked with the company. If the scaler has decided to leave the company, he automatically terminates his log scaler license and cannot use the same license in another company as the BOND IS NON-TRANSFERRABLE. He must apply for a new log scalers license with that company and must be approved by the Managing Director of the National Forest Service before he can scale logs. For new log scalers applications will make a payment of K700 (Bond K500 and K200 registration fee).

 

The Managing Director signs the application if the applicant meets all the requirements in obtaining a log scaler’s licence. An identification card is issued and forwarded together with the signed copy of the approval letter by the Managing Director to the applicant with a copy to the company manager, and the Papua New Guinea Forest Service Project Supervisor on site. This license is valid for two years only and must be renewed. Notification of approval is by regulation form 205, Log Scalers Licence.

 

A log scalers license can be terminated if the log scaler does not comply with the log scaling practices as prescribed in the Directions for the Identification, Scaling and reporting on logs harvested from Natural Forest Logging Operations-April 1996 or is negligent in the performance of his duties. As a consequence the bond may be forfeited to PNGFA and the log scalers license terminated. However, before the scalers license can be terminated or cancelled, a notice in regulation form 207, Notice of Intention to cancel Log Scalers License is forwarded to the Scaler and he must respond within 14 days in writing to the Chief Scaler as to why his license should be terminated or cancelled. If the grounds for the cancellation of the Log Scalers License warrants cancellation then the license is immediately cancelled.

 

Project Supervisors are required to carry out monthly log scaling checks on every log scaler in the projects they monitor to see that all log scalers comply with the directions imposed by the PNGFA.

 

Cameroon Timber Market

 

The following information about the Cameroon timber market has been collected from a case study on Cameron by the International Tropical Timber Organization in 2009.

 

Cameroon has an estimated a total land area of 475,442 square kilometers. Cameroon's economy is based on agriculture and livestock (44% of GDP), industry (16%) and services (40%) (CIA, 2008). The contribution forestry (accounted within agriculture and livestock) to the GDP is estimated at 6.5%.

 

The total area covered by dense productive forests is estimated at 16,467,570 hectacres. The tropical humid forests are mainly exploited for timber, firewood and non-timber forest products, while forests in the north are mainly used for firewood and non-wood products.

 

In general the forest resources are the property of the State; however, forest exploitation is conducted in the field by private individuals and industrial enterprises that received timber harvesting titles from the government. There are 9 types of legal timber harvesting titles in Cameroon that can be grouped as follows:

 

20
 

 

The exploitation permits, which include three types of titles: the timber exploitation permit, the special products exploitation permit and the firewood exploitation permit. The exploitation permits are granted for one year and are non-renewable, they allow exploitation or collection of well-defined quantities of forest products in a given area. These products may be special products, or volumes of raw timber not in excess of 500 square meters, or firewood and poles extracted for profit.

 

The authorizations which consist of two types of titles: the personal cutting authorization and the wood recovery authorization (rescue cutting and wood collection). A personal cutting authorization is issued for the benefit of an individual for non-profit personal use to collect quantities of wood that cannot exceed 30 cubed meters gross. Timber recovery authorizations may be issued as part of a development project likely to cause disruption or destruction in a forest. These permits are only issued after a prior environmental impact assessment has been conducted by the applicant in compliance with norms set by the environmental authority.

 

The community forests are granted for a maximum area of 5 000 hectacres. Logging takes place on behalf of the community, governed, by sales of standing volumes, personal logging authorization, or by permit, in accordance with a simple management plan approved by the forest authority. Industrial exploitation using heavy machineries for skidding and log transportation is forbidden in community forests. Only artisanal and semi-industrial techniques for which felled trees are sawn on the felling spot are allowed.

 

The sales of standing volume are granted within the non-permanent forest estate and consist of licenses to log in an area not exceeding 2 500 hectacres or a specified volume of standing timber for sale.

 

Municipal forests (or council forests) have a management plan approved by the forestry administration. The management plan is established at the behest of the heads of municipalities, and any activity must comply with it. Forest products of any kind from operations in council forests belong exclusively to the municipality.

 

Forest concessions are assigned after notice from an inter-ministerial committee, and following a public call for tender. Concessions from one company may not exceed a total area of 200,000 hectactres. After awards, the company signed a tentative agreement for a temporary contract of 3 years during which a plan for sustainable management must be prepared by the company and approved by the forestry administration. Concessions are granted for a period of 15 years and they are renewable.

 

While community forests and municipal forests are exclusively granted to local communities or local municipal council grouping persons of Cameroonian nationalities, industrial logging concessions are granted both to Cameroonian an foreign entities.

 

In total there are 105 companies involved in industrial timber harvesting and/or log processing in Cameroon, of these 90 companies have been granted logging rights the 15 others are only involved in timber processing and/or export. Many of these enterprises belong to a few business holdings of European or Asian interests. A typical example is the Wickwood group (China) which owns seven logging enterprises. Most of the industrial enterprises tend to be integrated to include not only timber harvesting but also log processing. The integration sometimes takes place at the level of a group, in that case many individual logging enterprises belonging to the same business group would supply logs to one or two timber processing mills.

Liberia Timber Market

 

The following information about the Liberian timber market has been collected from http://www.indexmundi.com/liberia/economy_profile.html and a case study on Liberia by the International Tropical Timber Organization in 2005.

 

Liberia is a low income country heavily reliant on foreign assistance for revenue. Civil war and government mismanagement destroyed much of Liberia's economy, especially the infrastructure in and around the capital, Monrovia. Many businesses fled the country, taking capital and expertise with them, but with the conclusion of fighting and the installation of a democratically-elected government in 2006, several have returned. Liberia has the distinction of having the highest ratio of direct foreign investment to GDP in the world. Richly endowed with water, mineral resources, forests, and a climate favorable to agriculture, Liberia had been a producer and exporter of basic products, primarily raw timber and rubber and is reviving those sectors. Local manufacturing, mainly foreign owned, had been small in scope.

 

Its government has taken steps to reduce corruption, build support from international donors, and encourage private investment. Embargos on timber and diamond exports have been lifted, opening new sources of revenue for the government and Liberia shipped its first major timber exports to Europe in 2010. The country reached its Heavily Indebted Poor Countries initiative completion point in 2010 and nearly $5 billion of international debt was permanently eliminated. This new status will enable Liberia to establish a sovereign credit rating and issue bonds. Liberia's Paris Club creditors agreed to cancel Liberia's debt as well. The IMF has completed the sixth review of Liberia's extended credit facility, bringing total disbursements to over $379 million. The African Development Bank approved a grant of $48 million in 2011 to support economic governance and competitiveness. Rebuilding infrastructure and raising incomes will depend on generous financial and technical assistance from donor countries and foreign investment in key sectors, such as infrastructure and power generation. The country has achieved high growth during 2010-12 due to favorable world prices for its commodities.

 

Liberia is blessed with a rich forest resource, a substantial part of which, however, has been lost or degraded in recent years during civil war. Once the country emerges from its political problems, a newly reconstituted and restructured forest sector, built on the pillars of accountability and transparency, could play a major role in economic growth and sustainable development. But its success will depend very much on strong political will and international support.

 

Liberia's public forest estate (“PFE”) covers an estimated 1.41 million hectares, comprising 1.31 million hectares of natural-forest production PFE and 101,000 hectares of protection PFE. More forest could be committed to the PFE from the presently uncommitted area of about 2 million hectares. None of the PFE is currently thought to be under Sustainable forest management (“SFM”). The existing protection PFE comprises less than 3% of the country's forests.

 

Ever since the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), which took place in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, countries have been trying to come to an international agreement on how to protect and sustainably manage the world’s forests. Finally, in 2007, the 192 member states of the United Nations Forum on Forests (UNFF) – including Liberia - adopted the Non-legally Binding Instrument on All Types of Forests (NLBI), which is also commonly known as the “Forest Instrument”. This significant international consensus was reached to boost the implementation of sustainable forest management and thus to maintain and enhance the economic, social and environmental values of all types of forests, for the benefit of present and future generations.

 

22
 

 

Through this agreement, the countries committed themselves (on a voluntary basis) to carry out a wide range of policies and measures promoting stakeholder participation in forest management and decision making, benefits for local communities, valuation of all goods and services from forests, good governance of the forest sector, forest financing, strengthening of forestry education and many other areas that are important to ensure the protection and sustainable management of forest resources and to combat deforestation and forest degradation. Liberia has agreed to become one of the first countries to implement the Forest Instrument. Much of the timber-processing capacity and other infrastructure was destroyed during the civil war and is yet to be rebuilt.

 

Dependence On One Or A Few Major Customers

 

We do not currently have any customers. However, we feel that, because of the potential wide base of customers, there will be no problem with dependence on one or few major customers if we are able to implement our business plan.

 

Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements Or Labor Contracts

 

The Company presently has no patents. Although the Company may in the future file for patent protection on products developed or to be developed by it, there can be no assurance that any patents will be issued or, if issued, that such patents will provide the Company with meaningful protection. Further, the technology used by the Company in the future is likely to be within the state-of-the-art and may not be more advanced than the technology used by or available to certain of its potential competitors. The Company may be unable to prevent its competitors and others from incorporating features of the Company’s products and services into their own offerings. Any litigation or adverse proceeding resulting from patent or trademark infringement could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could seriously harm our business operations and/or results of operations.

 

Need For Any Government Approval Of Principal Products Or Services

 

The Company will be subject to numerous laws in the jurisdictions in which it operates.

 

Bankruptcy Or Similar Proceedings

 

There has been no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding involving the Company.

 

Reorganization, Purchase Or Sale Of Assets

 

There have been no material reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets involving the Company.

 

Effect Of Existing Or Probable Governmental Regulations On The Business

 

The Company will be subject to numerous national, international, regional, state and local laws. The Company does not know when or whether additional legislation may pass or whether any such legislation would relate to the types of services currently planned to be provided by the Company or which the Company intends to develop. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict the effect, if any, that any such future regulation may have on its business.

 

23
 

 

Research And Development Activities During The Last Two Years

 

We have not expended funds for research and development costs since inception.

 

Costs And Effects Of Compliance With Environmental Laws

 

We anticipate material costs and expenses related to compliance with environmental laws.

 

Number Of Total Employees And Number Of Full Time Employees

 

We currently have one employee, our executive officer, Russell Heaton. He devotes 5 hours per week, to our business and currently is responsible for our general strategy, fund raising and customer relations. Once the offering is complete we will hire additional staff if we generate enough revenue to support the expense. The number of additional staff will depend upon our growth.

 

Description Of Property

 

We do not currently own any property. The mailing address of the Company is 848 Rainbow Blvd, #2096, Las Vegas, NV 89107. We consider our current principal office space arrangement adequate and will reassess our needs based upon the future growth of the Company.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We are not involved in any pending legal proceeding nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation against us.

 

Market For Common Equity

 

No public market currently exists for shares of our common stock. Our common stock is eligible for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “CRDX”. The Company has no equity compensation plans and there are no shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into, common stock of the Company. The Company has approximately 15 shareholders.

 

Penny Stock Rules

 

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 quoted on the FINRA system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).

 

24
 

 

A purchaser is purchasing penny stock which limits the ability to sell the stock. The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny stocks for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his/her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in us will be subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock.

 

The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document, which:

 

- contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stock in both public offerings and secondary trading;

 

- contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the Exchange Act;

 

- contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including “bid” and “ask” price for the penny stock and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;

 

- contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;

 

- defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and

 

- contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format) as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, to the customer:

 

- the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;

 

- the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;

 

- the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and

 

- monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling their securities.

Regulation M

 

Our CEO, who will offer and sell the shares, is aware that he is required to comply with the provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

A shareholder of the Company, Globex Transfer, LLC, a stock transfer agent, was engaged in December 2010 to provide stock transfer services. As of December 31, 2012, expenses towards stock transfer agent fee of $800 were included in the outstanding balance payable of $2,139. As of December 31, 2012, $7,700 was due to Service Merchant Corp, a related party who has paid for audit fees and professional fees for the year 2012.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

Common Stock

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. The holders of our common stock:

 

*have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available if and when declared by our board of directors;

 

28
 

 

*are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs;

 

*do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights; and

 

*are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote.

 

Non-Cumulative Voting

 

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

 

Cash Dividends

 

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not paid any cash dividends to stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.

 

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

A total of 58,992,500 shares have been issued to the existing stockholders, 29,406,250 of which were registered for resale on a registration statement on Form S-1 No. 333-170829, declared effective on April 13, 2011, and the balance of which are restricted securities, as that term is defined in Rule 144 of the Rules and Regulations of the SEC promulgated under the Securities Act. Under Rule 144, such shares can be publicly sold, subject to volume restrictions and certain restrictions on the manner of sale, commencing six months after their acquisition.

 

Rule 144(i)(1) states that the Rule 144 safe harbor is not available for the resale of securities “initially issued” by a shell company (other than a business combination related shell company) or an issuer that has “at any time previously” been a shell company (other than a business combination related shell company). Consequently, the Rule 144 safe harbor is not available for the resale of such securities unless and until all of the conditions in Rule 144(i)(2) are satisfied at the time of the proposed sale.

 

If all shares offered hereby are sold, there will zero authorized but unissued shares of the Company. Any sale of shares held by the existing stockholders and/or the sale of shares purchased in this offering (which would be immediately resalable after the offering), may have a depressive effect on the price of our common stock in any market that may develop, of which there can be no assurance.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS

 

The following discussion is a general summary of material U.S. federal income tax considerations with respect to your acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common stock, and applies if you (1) purchase our common stock in this offering, (2) will hold the common stock as a capital asset and (3) are a “non-U.S. Holder”. You are a non-U.S. Holder if you are a beneficial owner of shares of our common stock other than:

 

  a citizen or resident of the United States;

 

    a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

 

    an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source;

 

    a trust, if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or

 

    a trust that has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

This summary does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to you in the light of your particular circumstances or if you are a beneficial owner subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws (such as if you are a controlled foreign corporation, passive foreign investment company, company that accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax, foreign tax-exempt organization, financial institution, broker or dealer in securities, insurance company, regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, person who holds our common stock as part of a hedging or conversion transaction or as part of a short-sale or straddle, U.S. expatriate, former long-term permanent resident of the United States or partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes). This summary does not discuss non-income taxes, any aspect of the U.S. federal alternative minimum tax or state, local or non-U.S. taxation. This summary is based on current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), Treasury regulations, judicial opinions, published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and all other applicable authorities (all such sources of law, “Tax Authorities”). The Tax Authorities are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.

 

If a partnership (or an entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our common stock, you should consult your tax advisor.

 

WE URGE PROSPECTIVE NON-U.S. HOLDERS TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSIDERATIONS OF ACQUIRING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.

Dividends

 

In general, any distributions we make to you with respect to your shares of common stock that constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount, unless you are eligible for a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty and you properly file with the payor an IRS Form W-8BEN, or successor form, claiming an exemption from or reduction in withholding under the applicable income tax treaty (special certification and other requirements may apply if our common stock is held through certain foreign intermediaries). A distribution will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under the Tax Authorities. Any distribution not constituting a dividend will be treated first as reducing your basis in your shares of common stock and, to the extent it exceeds your basis, as capital gain.

 

Dividends we pay to you that are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if certain income tax treaties apply, are attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment maintained by you) generally will not be subject to U.S. withholding tax if you provide an IRS Form W-8ECI, or successor form, to the payor. Instead, such dividends generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax, net of certain deductions, at the same graduated individual or corporate rates applicable to U.S. persons. If you are a corporation, effectively connected income may also be subject to a “branch profits tax” at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty). Dividends that are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States but that, under an applicable income tax treaty, are not attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment maintained by you may be eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. tax under such treaty, provided you comply with certification and disclosure requirements necessary to obtain treaty benefits.

 

Sale or Other Disposition of Our Common Stock

 

You generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of your shares of our common stock unless:

 

    the gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, under certain income tax treaties, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment you maintain);

 

    you are an individual, you are present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition and you meet other conditions, and you are not eligible for relief under an applicable income tax treaty; or

  

31
 

 

    we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes (which we believe we are not and do not anticipate we will become within the shorter of (i) the five-year period ending on the date of the disposition or (ii) your holding period for our common stock) and you hold or have held, directly or indirectly, at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition of our common stock and your holding period for our common stock, more than 5% of our common stock. A United States real property holding corporation is any corporation if the fair market value of its U.S. real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market values of its U.S. real property interests, its interests in real property located outside the United States, and any other of its assets which are used or held for use in a trade or business. For purposes of identifying a U.S. real property interest, real property includes personal property associated with the use of the real property. Personal property will be associated with the use of the real property only where both the personal property and the U.S. real property interest with which it is associated are held by the same person or by “related persons.” Personal property associated with the use of real property includes personal property that is predominantly used to exploit unsevered natural products in or upon the land (including mining equipment used to extract ores, minerals, and other natural deposits from the ground). It is unclear whether we are, have at any time within the last five years been, or will be a United States real property holding corporation. If we are or were a United States real property holding corporation within the applicable period, then any gain recognized by non-U.S. Holders on the disposition of our common stock may be subject to Tax, including any applicable withholding tax.

 

Gain that is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax, net of certain deductions, at the same rates applicable to U.S. persons. If you are a corporation, the branch profits tax also may apply to such effectively connected gain. If the gain from the sale or disposition of your shares is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States but, under an applicable income tax treaty, is not attributable to a permanent establishment you maintain in the United States, your gain may be exempt from U.S. federal income tax under the income tax treaty. If you are described in the second bullet point above, you generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% on the gain realized, although the gain may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses realized during the same taxable year.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Requirements

 

We must report annually to the IRS and to each non-U.S. holder the amount of any dividends or other distributions we pay to you and the amount of tax we withhold on these distributions regardless of whether withholding is required. The IRS may make available copies of the information returns reporting those distributions and amounts withheld to the tax authorities in the country in which you reside pursuant to the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or exchange of information treaty.

 

The United States imposes a backup withholding tax on any dividends and certain other types of payments to U.S. persons. You will not be subject to backup withholding tax on dividends you receive on your shares of our common stock if you provide proper certification of your status as a Non-U.S. Holder or you are one of several types of entities and organizations that qualify for an exemption (an “exempt recipient”).

 

32
 

 

Information reporting and backup withholding generally are not required with respect to the amount of any proceeds from the sale of your shares of our common stock outside the United States through a foreign office of a foreign broker that does not have certain specified connections to the United States. If you sell your shares of common stock through a U.S. broker or the U.S. office of a foreign broker, however, the broker will be required to report to the IRS the amount of proceeds paid to you, and also backup withhold on that amount, unless you provide appropriate certification to the broker of your status as a Non-U.S. Holder or you are an exempt recipient. Information reporting will also apply if you sell your shares of our common stock through a foreign broker deriving more than a specified percentage of its income from U.S.-related activities or having certain other connections to the United States, unless such broker has documentary evidence in its records that you are a Non-U.S. Holder and certain other conditions are met, or you are an exempt recipient. Any amounts withheld with respect to your shares of our common stock under the backup withholding rules will be refunded to you or credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, by the IRS if the required information is furnished in a timely manner.

 

Recently Enacted Withholding Legislation

 

Recently enacted legislation will generally impose a withholding tax of 30% on dividends and the gross proceeds of a disposition of our shares paid to a foreign financial institution unless such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. government to withhold on certain payments and collect and provide to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution (which would include certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners). This legislation will also generally impose a withholding tax of 30% on dividends and the gross proceeds of a disposition of our shares paid to a non-financial foreign entity unless such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification identifying the direct and indirect U.S. owners of the entity. These withholding taxes could potentially be imposed on dividends paid on our common stock after December 31, 2013, and on gross proceeds from sales or other dispositions of our common stock after December 31, 2014. Under certain circumstances, a holder of common stock may be eligible for a refund or credit of such taxes. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the possible implications of this legislation on your investment in shares of our common stock.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

This is a self-underwritten offering. We may sell the securities covered by this prospectus from time to time. Registration of the securities covered by this prospectus does not mean, however, that those securities will necessarily be offered or sold. This prospectus permits our officer and director to sell the shares directly to the public, with no commission or other remuneration payable to him for any shares he may sell. There are no current contracts or agreements in place with a broker-dealer to sell the shares. Our officer and director, Russell Heaton, will sell the shares and intends to offer them to friends, relatives, acquaintances and business associates. In offering the securities on our behalf, he will rely on the safe harbor from broker dealer registration set out in Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

Our officer and director will not register as a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in reliance upon Rule 3a4-1, which sets forth those conditions under which a person associated with an issuer may participate in an offering of the issuer’s securities and not be deemed to be a broker-dealer.

The securities may be either offered to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters, or directly by underwriters. Generally, the underwriters’ obligations to purchase the securities will be subject to conditions precedent and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities if they purchase any of the securities. We may grant underwriters who participate in the distribution of securities an option to purchase additional securities in connection with the distribution.

Underwriters may sell the securities to or through dealers, and the dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters or commissions, which may be changed from time to time, from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority prescribes limits on the amount of compensation that a broker-dealer may receive in its capacity as an underwriter, and any broker-dealer that we would engage would be subject to such limitations. Any underwriting compensation paid by us to underwriters or agents in connection with the offering of the securities, and any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers, will be stated in the related prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment, as applicable. Dealers and agents participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the applicable securities laws.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the By-Laws of the Company, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act, and is, therefore unenforceable.

 

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or other control person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it, is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

 

Our By-Laws allow for the indemnification of the officers and directors in regard to their carrying out the duties of their offices. The board of directors will make determination regarding the indemnification of the director, officer or employee as is proper under the circumstances if he/she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Florida Business Corporation Act.

 

37
 

 

Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act, as amended (“FBCA”), grants a corporation organized thereunder the authority to indemnify each of its directors, officers, employees, or agents of the corporation or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise in connection with any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation) if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Unless pursuant to a determination by a court, the determination of whether a director, officer or employee has acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct must be made by (i) the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such proceeding, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, majority vote of a committee duly designated by the board of directors (in which directors who are parties may participate) consisting solely of two or more directors not at the time parties to the proceeding, (iii) independent legal counsel selected by the board of directors prescribed in (i) or the committee prescribed in (ii) or selected by majority vote of the full board if a quorum or committee cannot be obtained, or (iv) the shareholders by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of shareholders who were not parties to such proceeding or, if no such quorum is obtainable, by a majority vote of shareholders who were not parties to such proceeding.

 

The FBCA further provides that a corporation may make any other or further indemnity by resolution, bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, except with respect to certain enumerated acts or omissions of such persons. Florida law prohibits indemnification or advancement of expenses if a judgment or other final adjudication establishes that the actions of a director, officer or employee constitute (i) a violation of criminal law, unless the person had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, (ii) a transaction from which such person derived an improper personal benefit, (iii) willful misconduct or conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation in the case of a derivative action by a shareholder or (iv) in the case of a director, a circumstance under which a director would be liable for unlawful distributions under Section 607.0834 of the FBCA. The FBCA does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as federal securities laws.

 

The articles of incorporation and/or the by-laws of the corporation provides that the corporation will indemnify any and all persons whom it has the power to indemnify from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities or other matters referred to in the FBCA.

 

As to indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 for directors, officers or persons controlling Credex Corporation, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy and unenforceable.
