(d)The Subscriber understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or to assist the Subscriber in complying with the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States or of any foreign jurisdiction.

(f)The Subscriber acknowledges his understanding that the offering and sale of the Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

3

(l)The Subscriber understands that an investment in the Shares is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk and the potential loss of his entire investment.

(q) The Subscriber is aware that no federal or state agency has (i) made any finding or determination as to the fairness of this investment, (ii) made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares or the Company, or (iii) guaranteed or insured any investment in the Shares or any investment made by the Company.

4

When issued and paid for as herein provided, the Shares shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable. Neither the sales of the Shares pursuant to, nor the Company’s performance of its obligations under, this Agreement shall (a) result in the creation or imposition of any liens, charges, claims or other encumbrances upon the Shares or any of the assets of the Company, or (b) entitle the other holders of the Common Stock of the Company to preemptive or other rights to subscribe to or acquire the Common Stock or other securities of the Company. The Shares shall not subject the Subscriber to personal liability by reason of the ownership thereof. 

 

(d)No General Solicitation or Advertising in Regard to this Transaction. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates nor any person acting on its or their behalf (a) has conducted or will conduct any general solicitation (as that term is used in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D) or general advertising with respect to any of the Shares, or (b) made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under any circumstances that would require registration of the Common Stock under the Securities Act. 

 

(e)No Conflicts.

The business of the Company is not being conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity, except for possible violations that either singly or in the aggregate do not and will not have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, properties, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company. The Company is not required under federal, state or local law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or issue and sell the Common Stock in accordance with  the terms hereof (other than any SEC, NASD or state securities filings that may be required to be made by the Company subsequent to the Closing, any registration statement that may be filed pursuant hereto, and any shareholder approval required by the rules applicable to companies whose common stock trades on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board); provided that, for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, the Company is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements of the Subscriber herein.

(g)No Misleading or Untrue Communication. The Company, any person representing the Company, and, to the knowledge of the Company, any other person selling or offering to sell the Shares, if any, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, have not made, at any time, any written or oral communication in connection with the offer or sale of the same which contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

 

SECTION 5.

5.1risk factors. AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT RISK AND IS SUITABLE ONLY FOR PERSONS WHO ARE CAPABLE OF BEARING THE RISKS, INCLUDING THE RISK OF LOSS OF A SUBSTANTIAL PART OR ALL OF THEIR INVESTMENT. CAREFUL CONSIDERATION OF THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS, AS WELL AS OTHER INFORMATION IN THIS AGREEMENT, IS ADVISABLE PRIOR TO INVESTING. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD READ ALL SECTIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ARE STRONGLY URGED AND EXPECTED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN LEGAL AND FINANCIAL ADVISERS BEFORE INVESTING IN THE SHARES. 

  (a)The Company is a new, start-up company with no operating history; therefore, purchasing The Company’s common stock is very risky.   

 

The Company was formed in May 2018 and is in a development stage. The Company’s initial subsidiary will focus on the designing, distributing and develops environmental solutions focused on water applications for the oil and gas industry, including the development of mobile treatment centers for the treatment of water on oil and gas projects (the “Services”), although the Company may alter or change its business plan at any time. If the Company is unable to successfully develop or execute its business plan, then the Company will not be successful as a business. It will be difficult for you to evaluate an investment in the Company since the Company has no operating history. As a start-up company, the Company is especially vulnerable to any problems, delays, expenses and difficulties the Company may encounter while implementing its business plan. The Company has not proven the essential elements of profitable operations, and you will bear the risk of complete loss of your investment if the Company is not successful.  The Company is a highly speculative venture involving a high degree of financial risk. 

 
(b)The Seller cannot predict when or if the Company will produce revenues and may never be profitable, which could result in a total loss of your investment. 

 The Company has not yet generated any revenues from operations and anticipates incurring substantial losses for the foreseeable future. These losses could increase significantly as the Company begins development and marketing efforts. The losses will principally arise from costs incurred in research and development programs and from general and administrative costs.  The Company expects to incur operating losses in the future, and the Company has projected that these losses will increase significantly, whether or not the Company generates revenue, as the Company expands its operational efforts. The Company may never be profitable and there is no guarantee that any such relationship will be successful or will help the Company attain profitable operations. 

(c) Commencement and development of operations will depend on the successful production, industry approval, and acceptance of the Services. If the technology surrounding the Services is not successful or the Services are not deemed desirable and suitable by the oil and gas industry or other potential customers, and if the Company cannot successfully commercialize the Services and establish a customer base, the Company may not be able to generate any revenues, which would result in a failure of the business and a loss of any investment you make in the Company. 

6

 The successful completion of development, testing, marketing and acceptance of the Services is critically important for the Company to succeed. Furthermore, even if the Company successfully develops and sells the mobile treatment center, and there is market demand for the Services, the Company may not be able to commercially develop the Services for mass production, which would limit any revenues the Company could generate from the Services.  

In either event, the Company’s sales would be limited, and the Company may never realize any revenues or profits. In addition, there are no assurances that if the Company alters or changes the system or its application in the future, that the demand for the system would then develop, and this would adversely affect the business and any possible revenues.

 (d)The Company may not be able to secure additional financing to meet its future capital needs due to changes in general economic conditions. 

The Company anticipates needing significant capital to fulfill its contractual obligations, complete the research, development and testing of the mobile treatment centers and Services, and execute its business plan, generally.   The Company may use capital more rapidly than currently anticipated and incur higher operating expenses than currently expected, and the Company may be required to depend on external financing to satisfy its operating and capital needs. The Company may need new or additional financing in the future to conduct its operations or expand its business. Any sustained weakness in the general economic conditions and/or financial markets in the United States or globally could adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital on favorable terms or at all. From time to time the Company has relied, and may also rely in the future, on access to financial markets as a source of liquidity to satisfy working capital requirements and for general corporate purposes. The Company may be unable to secure debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, or at all, at the time when the Company needs such funding. If the Company does raise funds by issuing additional equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership percentages of existing stockholders would be reduced, and the securities that the Company issues may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of its common stock or may be issued at a discount to the market price of its common stock which would result in dilution to its existing stockholders. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt, the Company may be subject to debt covenants, which could place limitations on its operations including its ability to declare and pay dividends. The Company’s inability to raise additional funds on a timely basis would make it difficult to achieve its business objectives and would have a negative impact on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

(e) The Company will sell its Services in a highly competitive market and industry, which will result in pressure on its profit margins.  

The oil and gas industry is subject to significant competition and pricing pressures and has many larger groups with significantly more resources developing water solutions. The Company will experience significant competitive pricing pressures as well as competitive services and technologies. One or more of the Company’s competitors could develop a significant research advantage which allows them to provide superior services or pricing, which could put the Company at a competitive disadvantage. Continued pricing pressure or improvements in other products or development of new services and shifts away from the Services would adversely impact its customer base or pricing structure and have a material and adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. 

 

(f) The Company may be exposed to material liability claims, which could increase its costs and adversely affect its reputation and business. 

 

The Company could be subject to liability claims if the use of the Services is alleged to have resulted in injury. The cost of defense can be substantially higher than the cost of settlement even when claims are without merit. The high cost to defend or settle liability claims could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and operating results.

7

(g) The Company currently does not have insurance coverage for any claims against it. 

The Company faces the risk of loss resulting from product liability, securities, fiduciary liability, intellectual property, antitrust, contractual, warranty, environmental, fraud and other lawsuits, whether or not such claims are valid. In addition, the Company does not have liability, fiduciary, directors and officers, property, natural catastrophe and comprehensive general liability insurance. To the extent the Company secures insurance, it may not be adequate to cover such claims or may not be available to the extent the Company expects. If the Company is able to secure insurance, its costs could be volatile and, at any time, can increase given changes in market supply and demand. The Company may not be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage in the future at acceptable costs. A successful claim that exceeds or is not covered by its policies could require the Company to pay substantial sums, which would negatively affect its operating results. 

(h) The Company may have difficulty managing growth in its business.  

Because of its small size, growth in accordance with the business plans, if achieved, will place a significant strain on the Company’s financial, technical, operational and management resources. As the Company expands its activities, research and development, marketing, and general operations, there will be additional demands on its financial, technical and management resources. The failure to continue to upgrade its technical, administrative, operating and financial control systems or the occurrence of unexpected expansion difficulties, including the recruitment and retention of experienced personnel, talent and consultants, could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations and its ability to timely execute its business plan. 

(i) The Company will require additional capital to fund its current business plan.  

The Company’s success is dependent on future financings. The business will require substantial additional capital expenditures to develop, acquire, improve, operate and expand. The Company projects the need for significant capital spending and increased working capital requirements over the next several years. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such financing on terms which are acceptable, if at all. The failure to secure future financing with favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on its business and operations. 

(j) The business plan is based, in part, on estimates and assumptions that may prove to be inaccurate and accordingly their business plan may not succeed.  

The discussion of the business incorporates management’s current best estimate and analysis of the potential market, opportunities and difficulties that the Company faces. There can be no assurances that the underlying assumptions accurately reflect opportunities and potential for success. Competitive and economic forces on marketing, distribution and pricing of the Services make forecasting of sales, revenues and costs extremely difficult and unpredictable. 

 (k) The Company must successfully adapt and manage an evolving business.  

The Company expects operating expenses and staffing level to increase substantially in the future. In particular, the Company intends to hire skilled personnel, including persons with experience in the water management and oil and gas industry. Competition for such personnel can be intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to find or keep additional suitable senior managers or technical persons in the future. The Company also expects to expend resources for future expansion of its accounting and internal information management systems and for a number of other new systems and procedures. If the Company’s revenues do not keep up with operating expenses, its information management systems do not expand to meet increasing demands, the Company fails to attract, assimilate and retain qualified personnel, or the Company fails to manage its expansion effectively, there would be a materially adverse effect on its business, financial condition and operating results  

(l) If the Company is unable to retain key executives and other personnel and/or recruit additional executives and personnel, the Company may not be able to execute its forecasted business strategy and its growth may be hindered.  

8

The Company’s success largely depends on the performance of its management team and other key personnel and its ability to continue to recruit qualified senior executives and other key personnel. The Company’s future operations could be harmed if any of its senior executives or other key personnel ceased working for it. Competition for senior management personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain its personnel or attract additional qualified personnel. The loss of a member of senior management may require the remaining executive officers to divert immediate and substantial attention to fulfilling his or her duties and to seeking a replacement. The Company may not be able to continue to attract or retain such personnel in the future. Any inability to fill vacancies in its senior executive positions on a timely basis could impair the Company’s ability to implement its business strategy, which would harm its business and results of operations.  

(m) The Company’s operations may be impaired as a result of disasters, business interruptions or similar events.  

A natural disaster such as a hurricane, tornado, fire, flood, or a catastrophic event such as a terrorist attack, an epidemic affecting its operating activities, major facilities, or a computer system failure could cause an interruption or delay in its business and loss of inventory and/or data or render the Company unable to produce or run the mobile treatment centers and perform the Services. The Company does not currently have a disaster recovery plan, other than with respect to its information technology systems, and its proposed business interruption insurance may not adequately compensate the Company for losses that may occur. In the event that a hurricane, natural disaster, terrorist attack or other catastrophic event were to destroy any part of the Company’s facilities or interrupt its corporate headquarters or any of its mobile treatment centers for any extended period of time, or if harsh weather conditions prevent it from performing its services in a timely manner, its business, financial condition and operating results could be seriously harmed. 

(n) Because the Company is subject to numerous laws and regulations, and the Company may become involved in litigation from time to time, the Company could incur substantial judgments, fines, legal fees and other costs. 

 

The industry is highly regulated. The Services will be regulated by various federal, state and local agencies as well as those of each foreign country in which the Company distributes the Services. These governmental authorities may commence regulatory or legal proceedings, which could restrict the permissible scope of the Company’s service offerings.

 
        (o) The Company may, in the future, issue additional common or preferred shares, which would reduce investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute your share value. 

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of the Company’s common stock held by its then-existing shareholders. The Company may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of its common stock held by its investors and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for the Company’s common stock.

(p) The Company may seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships by issuing capital stock. 

The Company has financed its operations, and the Company expects to continue to finance its operations, acquisitions and develop strategic relationships, by issuing equity or debt securities, which could significantly reduce the percentage ownership of the Company’s existing stockholders. Furthermore, any newly issued securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the Company’s existing stock. Moreover, any issuances by the Company of equity securities may be at or below the prevailing market price, if any, of the Company’s common 

9

stock and may have a dilutive impact on your ownership interest, which could cause the market price of the Company’s stock to decline.

(q) The Company may issue shares of preferred stock in the future that may adversely impact your rights as holders of its common stock. 

The Company’s founders will have the right to authorize its Board of Directors to issue preferred shares and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred shares without further stockholder approval. As a result, the Company’s Board of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders preferred rights to the Company’s assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividends before dividends are declared to holders of common stock, and the right to the redemption of such preferred shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of the common stock. To the extent that the Company does issue such shares of preferred stock, your rights as holders of common stock could be impaired thereby, including, without limitation, dilution of your ownership interests in the Company. In addition, shares of preferred stock could be issued with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult, which may not be in your interest as a holder of common stock.

(r) There is no current trading market for the Company’s securities and if a trading market does not develop, purchasers of its securities may have difficulty selling their shares. 

The Company is not currently a public company and is not quoted or trading on any market. There is currently no established public trading market for the Company’s securities, and an active trading market in its securities may not develop or, if developed, may not be sustained.  The Shares will be restricted securities under the securities laws when issued pursuant to this Purchase Agreement, and purchasers of the Purchased Shares will likely have difficulty selling their common stock should they desire to do so. 

(s) The Company may never pay dividends to shareholders, which could reduce the monetary gain you may realize on your investment. 

 The Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on its capital stock.  The Company may retain its future earnings, if any, to support operations and to finance expansion and therefore The Company may not pay any cash dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of the Company’s operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the board of directors considers relevant.  There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.  If the Company does not pay dividends, its common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment will only occur if its stock price appreciates.

RE:Employment Agreement 

Dear Fred:

Kou You Kai Ltd. (the “Company”) is pleased that you have chosen to work as an employee of the Company and have been serving since May 16, 2018. The purpose of this letter is to formally memorialize your existing employment agreement with the Company on the following terms:

(1)Position.  You will serve as Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company, and may also serve as an officer in one or more of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. You will report directly to Tsunenobu Arai, the President and Director of the Company.  By signing this letter agreement (“Agreement”), you represent and warrant to the Company that you are under no contractual commitments that will be inconsistent with your obligations to the Company, excepting those obligations discussed herein, which by virtue of this Agreement, are deemed consistent with your obligations to the Company. Your start date shall be effective as of May 16, 2018.  

(2)Duties. Your duties as Chief Financial Officer and Secretary will be to oversee the Company’s operations, help facilitate the Company’s audit and ongoing reporting obligations, manage the filing of an IPO, evaluate acquisition candidates, and other management and administrative functions as deemed appropriate by Mr. Arai and the Board of Directors. You shall use your best efforts to promote the interests of the Company and its business and affairs and shall not provide management services to any other company or otherwise engage in business activities that would reasonably be expected to materially interfere with the performance of your duties, services and responsibilities hereunder. 

(3)Salary and Benefits.  You will be paid a salary at the monthly rate of $10,000 per month, payable in monthly installments in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices for salaried employees.  This salary will be subject to adjustment pursuant to the Company’s employee compensation policies applicable to senior executives, as in effect from time to time. You agree that the amount of this salary will be accrued by the Company until the Company’s becomes profitable. All accrued wages shall not bear any rate of interest. You will also be entitled to participate in all benefits generally available to the Company’s employees, including without limitation medical, life, dental and vision insurance programs. 

1

(4)  Stock Issuance.  You will be issued shares of common stock and preferred stock in consideration of your duties outlined herein. Initially, you shall be issued 275,000 shares of common stock and 51 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. You may be granted shares of common stock in the Company based on your performance. Such stock awards shall be determined at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

(5) Proprietary Information Agreement.  Like all Company employees, you will be required, as a condition to your employment with the Company, to sign the Company’s standard proprietary information and/or confidentiality agreement upon commencement of your employment.

 

(6) Termination of Employment. 

 

 (a)By Death.  Your employment shall terminate automatically upon your death.  The Company shall pay to your beneficiaries or estate, as appropriate, any compensation then due and owing, including payment for accrued salary and bonus, unused vacation, expense reimbursement, if any, and any other benefits provided under this Agreement, including without limitation the ability to exercise any vested and exercisable options held by you.  Thereafter, all obligations of Company under this Agreement shall cease.  Nothing in this Section 6(a) shall affect any entitlement of your heirs to the benefits of any life insurance plan or other applicable benefits. 

 

(b) By Disability.  For purposes of this Agreement, “disability” means you have a mental or physical impairment that is expected to result in death or that has lasted or is expected to last for a continuous period of three (3) months or more and that causes you to be unable to perform your duties under this Agreement or to be engaged in any substantial gainful activity.  If you experience such a disability, then, to the extent permitted by law, the Company may terminate your employment upon sixty (60) days' advance written notice.  Termination by disability shall be determined by a physician selected by the Board of Directors.  If such physician is unable to schedule an appointment with you within ten business days of the Board of Directors’ written request, the Board of Directors, at its sole discretion, is authorized to determine whether your disability has occurred.  The Company shall pay you all compensation to which you are entitled up through the last business day of the notice period, including payment for accrued salary, bonus and unused vacation, expense reimbursement, if any, and any other benefits provided under this Agreement; thereafter, all obligations of Company under this Agreement shall cease.  Nothing in this Section 6(b) shall affect your rights under any applicable Company disability plan. 

 

(c)By Company Not For Cause.  At any time, Company may terminate your employment without Cause (as defined in Section 6(d) below) by providing you written notice of such termination.  In such event, the Company shall pay you your full salary (including any accrued salary owed hereunder) and bonus due through the date of termination and continuing for the twenty-four-month period following such date of termination at the rate in effect at the time notice of termination is given (the “Not for Cause Severance Payment”), as well as all other unpaid amounts, if any, to which you are entitled as of the date of termination under any compensation plan or program of the Company, at the time such payments are due.  Your eligibility for the Not for Cause Severance Payment shall be conditioned on your agreement to a non-competition agreement for a period of twenty-four months with terms to be  

2

negotiated by the Board of Directors. In addition, if you are terminated from your employment without Cause, all stock awards as granted in Section 6 herein shall immediately vest.

 

(d)By Company For Cause.  At any time, unless such actions are cured as described below, and without prior notice for actions that are not curable, the Company may terminate your employment for Cause.  The Company shall pay you all compensation then due and owing, including payment for bonus, unused vacation, expense reimbursement, if any, and any other benefits provided in this Agreement, including without limitation the exercisability of any vested exercisable option held by you; thereafter, all of Company's obligations under this Agreement shall cease.  Termination shall be for "Cause" if:  (i) you act intentionally, recklessly or in bad faith, in a manner which causes material damage or potential material damage to the Company; (ii) you intentionally (and other than due to mental or physical disability or death) refuse to follow any specific written direction or order of the Board of Directors (unless cured as set forth below); (iii) you exhibit in regard to your employment material misconduct or dishonesty; (iv) you are convicted of a material crime involving dishonesty, breach of trust or fraud; or (v) you breach any material term of this Agreement.  For purposes of this Section 6(d), no act, or failure to act, on your part shall be considered to have been done or omitted “intentionally” unless done, or omitted to be done, by you not in good faith and without reasonable belief that your action or omission was in the best interest of the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not be terminated for Cause pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (v) above without (1) reasonable notice (of at least 10 days) from the Board of Directors setting forth the reasons for the Company's intention to terminate for Cause, and (2) an opportunity for you, together with your counsel, to be heard before the Board.  Your employment may be terminated by Company only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company then holding office (without counting your vote). No severance payment shall be paid if you are terminated for cause. 

 

(e) By Change of Control.  In the event of an acquisition of the Company or substantially all of the Company’s assets in connection with which your employment is either involuntarily terminated without cause or voluntarily terminated as a result of a material diminution in responsibilities, the Company shall pay you your full salary (including accrued salary) and bonus override through the date of termination and continuing for the twenty-four-month period following such date of termination at the rate in effect at the time notice of termination is given (the “Change of Control Severance Payment”), as well as all other unpaid amounts, if any, to which you are entitled as of the date of termination under any compensation plan or program of the Company, at the time such payments are due.  Your eligibility for the Change of Control Severance Payment shall be conditioned on your agreement to a non-competition agreement for a period of twenty-four months with terms to be negotiated by the Board of Directors. 

            

             (6)Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains all of the terms of your employment with the Company and supersedes any prior understandings or agreements, whether oral or written, between you and the Company.   

 

(7)Withholding Taxes.  All forms of compensation referred to in this letter are subject to reduction to reflect applicable withholding and payroll taxes. 

3

            (8)Amendment and Governing Law.  This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company.  The terms of this Agreement, and the resolution of any disputes arising pursuant hereto, will be governed by Wyoming law. 

Of course, as required by law, your employment with the Company is also contingent upon your providing legal proof of your identity and authorization to work in the United States.  

As I mentioned before, we are pleased with your decision to work as an employee for Kou You Kai, Ltd.  

 

	Very truly yours,

 

	 

	KOU YOU KAI, LTD.

	 

	By: /s/ Tsunenobu Arai
