Securities Transfer Corporation

2901 N. Dallas Parkway, Suite 380

Plano, Texas 75093

Attention: Proxy Department

 

If you hold your shares through an account with a bank or broker, your ability to vote by the Internet depends on their voting procedures. Please follow the directions that your bank or broker provides.

 

 

May I vote at the meeting?

 

If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote in person at the meeting. If you hold your shares through an account with a bank or broker, please follow the directions provided to you by your bank or broker. If you wish to vote in person at the meeting, please contact your bank or broker to learn the procedures necessary to allow you to vote your shares in person. Even if you plan to attend the meeting, we encourage you to vote your shares by proxy. You may vote by proxy through the Internet, by telephone or by mail.

 

Can I change my mind after I return my proxy?

 

You may change your vote at any time before the polls close at the conclusion of voting at the meeting. You may do this by (1) signing another proxy card with a later date and returning it to us prior to 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on August 24, 2023, (2) voting again via email prior to 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on August 24, 2023, (3) voting again via fax prior to 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on August 24, 2023, or (4) voting at the meeting if you are a registered shareholder or have followed the necessary procedures required by your bank or broker.

Proxies that are signed and returned but do not contain instructions will be voted in favor of Proposals 1, 2 and 3 in accordance with the best judgment of the named proxies on any other matters properly brought before the meeting.

 

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card or instruction form?

 

It indicates that your Ordinary Shares are registered differently and are in more than one account. To ensure that all shares are voted, please either vote each account by telephone or on the Internet, or sign and return all proxy cards. We encourage you to register all your accounts in the same name and address. Those holding shares through a bank or broker should contact their bank or broker and request consolidation.

 

Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my proxy or instruction form?

 

If you are a registered shareholder and do not provide a proxy, you must attend the meeting in order to vote your shares. If you hold shares through an account with a bank or broker, your shares may be voted even if you do not provide voting instructions on your instruction form. Brokerage firms have the authority to vote shares for which their customers do not provide voting instructions on certain routine matters. The ratification of Audit Alliance LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 is considered a routine matter for which brokerage firms may vote without specific instructions. However, election of directors is no longer considered a routine matter for which brokerage firms may vote without specific instructions. When a proposal is not a routine matter and the brokerage firm has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares with respect to that proposal, the brokerage firm cannot vote the shares on that proposal. Shares that a broker is not authorized to vote are counted as “broker non-votes.”

 

How can I attend the meeting?

 

The meeting is open to all holders of the Company’s Ordinary Shares as of July 21, 2023.

 

 

May shareholders ask questions at the meeting?

 

Yes. Representatives of the Company will answer questions of general interest at the end of the meeting. You may also submit questions in advance via email to yf@abitgrp.com or a letter to the offices of the Company at Room 1202, Block B, Jiahui Center, 6 Jiqing Li, Chaoyangmenwai Street, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China 100020. Such questions will also be addressed at the end of the meeting.

 

How many votes must be present to hold the meeting?

 

Your shares are counted as present at the meeting if you attend the meeting and vote in person or if you properly return a proxy by internet, email, fax or mail. In order for us to conduct our meeting, one-third (1/3) of our outstanding Ordinary Shares as of July 21, 2023 must be present in person or by proxy. This is referred to as a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of establishing a quorum at the meeting.

 

How many votes are needed to approve the Company’s proposals?

 

Proposal 1. The nominees receiving the highest number of “For” votes will be elected as directors. This number is called a plurality. Shares not voted will have no impact on the election of directors. The proxy given will be voted “For” each of the nominees for director unless a properly executed proxy card is marked “Abstain” as to a particular nominee or nominees for director..

 

Proposal 2. The ratification of the appointment of Audit Alliance LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 requires that a majority of the votes cast at the meeting be voted “For” the proposal. A properly executed proxy card marked “Abstain” with respect to this proposal will not be voted.

 

Proposal 3. Transacting any other business properly coming before the meeting requires that a majority of the votes cast at the meeting be voted “For” the proposal. A properly executed proxy card marked “Abstain” with respect to this proposal will not be voted.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, nor has any been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past five years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement. Except as set forth in our discussion in “Related Party Transactions,” our directors and officers have not been involved in any transactions with us or any of our affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Director Independence

 

The Board of Directors has reviewed the independence of our directors, applying the NASDAQ independence standards. Based on this review, the Board of Directors determined that each of Lionel Choong, Tao Xu and Chuan Zhan are independent within the meaning of the NASDAQ rules. In making this determination, our Board of Directors considered the relationships that each of these non-employee directors has with us and all other facts and circumstances our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining their independence. As required under applicable NASDAQ rules, we anticipate that our independent directors will meet on a regular basis as often as necessary to fulfill their responsibilities, including at least annually in executive session without the presence of non-independent directors and management.

 

Board Leadership Structure

 

Mr. Conglin Deng serves as the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of the Company. As a smaller public company, we believe it is in the company’s best interest to allow the company to benefit from guidance from key members of management in a variety of capacities. We do not have a lead independent director and do not anticipate having a lead independent director because we will encourage our independent directors to freely voice their opinions on a relatively small company board. We believe this leadership structure is appropriate because we are a relatively small public company.

 

Risk Oversight

 

Our Board of Directors plays a significant role in our risk oversight. The Board of Directors makes or approve all relevant Company decisions. As such, it is important for us to have our Chief Executive Officer serve on the Board as he plays a key role in the risk oversight of the Company. As a smaller reporting company with a small board of directors, we believe it is appropriate to have the involvement and input of all of our directors in risk oversight matters.

 

 

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF All

NOMINEES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

 

PROPOSAL TWO

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF AUDIT ALLIANCE LLP

(ITEM 2 ON THE PROXY CARD)

 

What am I voting on?

 

A proposal to ratify the appointment of Audit Alliance LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has appointed Audit Alliance LLP to serve as the Company’s fiscal year 2023 independent registered public accounting firm. Although the Company’s governing documents do not require the submission of this matter to shareholders, the Board of Directors considers it desirable that the appointment of Audit Alliance LLP be ratified by shareholders.

 

Has the Company changed its independent registered public accounting firm during its two most recent fiscal years?

 

Yes, Centurion ZD & Co. served as the Company’s independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Effective June 30, 2022, the Company appointed Audit Alliance LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 and accepted the resignation of Centurion ZD & Co., effective on the same date. Audit Alliance LLP is headquartered in the Republic of Singapore and will be subject to the inspections by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board of the United States. During the Company’s prior fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and September 30, 2020, through the resignation of Centurion on June 30, 2022, there were no disagreements between the Company or its predecessor, Moxian, Inc., and Centurion on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Centurion, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report on the Company’s or its predecessor’s consolidated financial statements for such periods. In addition, Centurion’s reports on the financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and September 30, 2020 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and September 30, 2020 through the resignation of Centurion on June 30, 2022, there were no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form 20-F.

 

What services will Audit Alliance LLP provide?

 

Audit services provided by Audit Alliance LLP for fiscal 2023 will include the examination of the consolidated financial statements of the Company and services related to periodic reports made with the SEC.

 

Will a representative of Audit Alliance LLP be present at the meeting?

 

One or more representatives of Audit Alliance LLP may present at the meeting. The representatives will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire and will be available to respond to questions from shareholders.

 

What if this proposal is not approved?

 

If the appointment of Audit Alliance LLP is not ratified, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors will reconsider the appointment.

 

 

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE RATIFICATION OF

AUDIT ALLIANCE LLP AS THE COMPANY’S FISCAL 2023 INDEPENDENT

REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

 

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE INFORMATION

 

What if a nominee is unwilling or unable to serve?

 

The nominee listed in the Proxy Statement has agreed to serve as a director, if elected. If for some unforeseen reason a nominee becomes unwilling or unable to serve, proxies will be voted for a substitute nominee selected by the Board of Directors.

 

How are directors compensated?

 

All directors hold office until the expiration of their respective terms or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Employee directors do not receive any compensation for their services as a director. Our non-employee directors on our Board of Directors receive the director’s fees set forth in their appointment letters, which vary between $0 and $36,000 annually. In addition, non-employee directors are entitled to receive reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with their services provided in such capacity. We may provide incentive grants of stock, options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for, our securities.

 

How does the Board determine which directors are independent?

 

The Board of Directors reviews the independence of each director yearly. During this review, the Board of Directors considers transactions and relationships between each director (and his or her immediate family and affiliates) and the Company and its management to determine whether any such relationships or transactions are inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent in light of applicable law, listing standards and the Company’s director independence standards. The Company believes that it maintains a majority of independent directors who are deemed to be independent under the definition of independence provided by NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2).

 

What role does the Nominating Committee play in selecting nominees to the Board of Directors?

 

Two of the primary purposes of the Board’s Nominating Committee are (i) to develop and implement policies and procedures that are intended to ensure that the Board of Directors will be appropriately constituted and organized to meet its fiduciary obligations to the Company and its shareholders and (ii) to identify individuals qualified to become members of the Board of Directors and to recommend to the Board of Directors the director nominees for the annual meeting of shareholders. The Nominating Committee is also responsible for considering candidates for membership on the Board of Directors submitted by eligible shareholders. The Nominating Committee’s charter is available on the Company’s website at www.moxianglobal.com and in print upon request. The Nominating Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors was the only entity or person to nominate and/or recommend any of the director nominees.

 

Are the members of the Nominating Committee independent?

 

Yes. All members of the Nominating Committee have been determined to be independent by the Board of Directors.

 

 

How does the Nominating Committee identify and evaluate nominees for director?

 

The Nominating Committee considers candidates for nomination to the Board of Directors from a number of sources. Current members of the Board of Directors are considered for re-election unless they have notified the Company that they do not wish to stand for re-election. The Nominating Committee also considers candidates recommended by current members of the Board of Directors, members of management or eligible shareholders. From time to time the Board may engage a firm to assist in identifying potential candidates, although the Company did not engage such a firm to identify any of the nominees for director proposed for election at the meeting. The Nominating Committee evaluates all candidates for director, regardless of the person or firm recommending such candidate, on the basis of the length and quality of their business experience, the applicability of such candidate’s experience to the Company and its business, the skills and perspectives such candidate would bring to the Board of Directors and the personality or “fit” of such candidate with existing members of the Board of Directors and management. The nominating committee does not have a specific policy in place with regard to the consideration of diversity when identifying director nominees; however, the nominating committee does consider diversity of opinion and experience when nominating directors.

 

What are the Nominating Committee’s policies and procedures for considering director candidates recommended by shareholders?

 

The Nominating Committee will consider all candidates recommended by shareholders. A shareholder wishing to recommend a candidate must submit the following documents to Room 1202, Block B, Jiahui Center, 6 Jiqing Li, Chaoyangmenwai Street, Chaoyang District, Beijing 100020, China

 

	●	a recommendation that identifies the name and address of the shareholder and the person to be nominated;
	●	the written consent of the candidate to serve as a director of the Company, if elected;
	●	a description of all arrangements between the shareholders and such nominee pursuant to which the nomination is to be made; and
	●	such other information regarding the nominee as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the SEC.

 

If the candidate is to be evaluated by the Nominating Committee, the Secretary will request a detailed resume, an autobiographical statement explaining the candidate’s interest in serving as a director of the Company, a completed statement regarding conflicts of interest, and a waiver of liability for a background check from the candidate.

 

What are the minimum qualifications required to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors?

 

All members of the Board of Directors must possess the following minimum qualifications as determined by the Nominating Committee:

 

	●	A director must demonstrate integrity, accountability, informed judgment, financial literacy, creativity and vision;
	●	A director must be prepared to represent the best interests of all Company shareholders, and not just one particular constituency;
	●	A director must have a record of professional accomplishment in his or her chosen field; and
	●	A director must be prepared and able to participate fully in Board activities, including membership on committees.

 

What other considerations does the Nominating Committee consider?

 

The Nominating Committee believes it is important to have directors from various backgrounds and professions in order to ensure that the Board of Directors has a wealth of experiences to inform its decisions. Consistent with this philosophy, in addition to the minimum standards set forth above, business and managerial experience and an understanding of financial statements and financial matters are very important.
