(formerly known as E-World USA Holding, Inc.), is being filed for the sole purpose of correcting a typographical error in the name of the trading market described in Item 5 of Part II of the Original Filing. There are no changes to the disclosures in the Original Filing, except that this Amendment No. 1 amends and restates Item 5 of Part II of the Original Filing in its entirety.

 

Except for the foregoing, this Amendment No. 1 does not update or modify any of the information contained in the Original Filing. Other than as specifically set forth herein, this Amendment No. 1 continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing. No attempt has been made in this Amendment No. 1 to modify or update the disclosures presented in the Original Filing or to modify or update those disclosures that may be affected by subsequent events.

PART II

 

Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Small Business Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

 

Trading History

 

Our common stock is qualified for quotation on the OTC Pink Open Market under the symbol “EWLU.”

 

There have been no trades in our Common Stock as of the date of this Report, as we are not current in our SEC filings. While the Company is committed to bringing its SEC reporting obligations current, no assurance can be provided as to if or when trading in the Company’s securities will be permitted.

 

Dividends

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon then existing conditions, including our financial condition and results of operations, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, business prospects and other factors that the Board of Directors considers relevant.

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

 

·

we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

 

 

·

our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution, unless otherwise permitted under our articles of incorporation.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

 

None.
