KINGTONE
WIRELESSINFO SOLUTION HOLDING LTD
General
We
are a holding company and conduct our operations through a contractually-controlled entity in the People’s Republic of China
(“PRC”) named Xi’an Kingtone Information Technology Co., Ltd., a PRC limited liability company (“Kingtone
Information”) that develops and provides mobile enterprise solutions in the PRC. In May 2010, we consummated an initial
public offering of our American Depository Shares, or ADSs, for gross proceeds of $16 million, and our ADSs were listed on the
NASDAQ Capital Market under the ticker symbol “KONE”.
On
January 25, 2018, the Company executed an Asset Exchange Agreement (“AEA”) with C Media Limited, a corporation organized
under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“C Media”), whereby Kingtone agreed to purchase all the capital stock and equity
interests of LK Technology Ltd, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries MMB Limited and Mobile Media (China) Limited and all
respective subsidiaries from C Media in exchange for (i) 185,412,599 ordinary shares of Kingtone, par value $0.01 per share (“Ordinary
Shares”), (ii) 1,000,000 preferred shares of Kingtone (“Preferred Shares”) and (iii) all issued and outstanding
capital stock or equity interests of the Company’s subsidiary, Topsky Info-Tech Holdings Pte Ltd., and its wholly-owned
subsidiary Xi’an Softech Co., Ltd., including all entities effectively controlled by Xi’an Softech Co., Ltd. through
contractual arrangements and variable business entities.
In
order to consummate the contemplated transactions described above, the Company must obtain shareholders’ consent (i) to
authorize 1,000,000 Preferred Shares, (ii) to authorize additional Ordinary Shares so that total authorized Ordinary Shares is
equal to 250,000,000 shares, (iii) to list such Ordinary Shares on NASDAQ, and (iv) to approve the transactions contemplated in
the Asset Exchange Agreement. Additionally, NASDAQ must approve the contemplated transactions prior to consummation thereof. C
Media has the right to terminate the AEA if the closing has not occurred (other than through the failure of C Media to comply
fully with its obligations under the AEA) on or before July 31, 2018. A special meeting of the shareholders was held on May 22,
2018 when the proposals above were passed by the shareholders.
The
Preferred Shares to be created and authorized shall initially have a per-share voting weight of 399 votes of Ordinary Shares.
In the event of the public resale of a Preferred Share to a third party, such Preferred Share’s voting weight will be reduced
to one vote per share. The Preferred Shares will have the same economic rights, rights to dividends and other distribution rights
as the Ordinary Shares, and holders of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company
shareholders. The Preferred Shares will be transferable by Mr. Xuesong Song to any third party through one or more private transactions
(subject to applicable law).
C
Media Limited, through its subsidiaries in China, is one of the leading mobile service and technology providers of long distance
travel and the railway Wi-Fi market in China. C Media’s core mobile application product Luokuang, is made as a Location
Based Service-social contents and service distribution platform. Luokuang obtains travel users by the typical entrance for long-distance
travel. It accesses long-distance travel users continually by offering free Wi-Fi services by system deployed on the train. As
of the end of 2017, C Media has signed contracts to deploy Luokuang on about 700 trains which subsequently has access to approximately
500 million passenger trips per year. The number of trains currently in operation with Luokuang by C Media is 286 (about 430 train

PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
The
selling shareholder and any of his pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time,
sell any or all of their ordinary shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or quoted
or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling shareholder may use any one or more
of the following methods when selling shares:
|
●
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits investors;
|
|
●
|
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position
and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
|
|
●
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
|
|
●
|
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
|
|
●
|
privately
negotiated transactions;
|
|
●
|
to
cover short sales made after the date that this registration statement is declared effective
by the SEC;
|
|
●
|
broker-dealers
may agree with the selling shareholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a
stipulated price per share;
|
|
●
|
a
combination of any such methods of sale; and
|
|
●
|
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
|
The
selling shareholder may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the selling shareholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions
or discounts from the selling shareholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser)
in amounts to be negotiated. The selling shareholder do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary
in the types of transactions involved.
The
selling shareholder may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares owned by them and,
if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell ordinary shares
from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision
of the Securities Act amending the list of selling shareholder to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest
as selling shareholder under this prospectus.
The
selling shareholder also may transfer the ordinary shares in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other
successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The
selling shareholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters”
within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers
or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts
under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to
the sale of ordinary shares will be paid by the selling shareholder and/or the purchasers. The selling shareholder have represented
and warranted to the Company that they acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of
the selling shareholder’ business and, at the time of their purchase of such securities the selling shareholder had no agreements
or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
The
selling shareholder and any other person participating in a distribution of the ordinary shares covered by this prospectus will
be subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Regulation M of the Exchange
Act may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities by the selling shareholder and any other person. In addition, Regulation
M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus
to engage in market-making activities with respect to our securities for a period of up to five business days before the distribution.
The
Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive
any proceeds from the sale of ordinary shares.
LEGAL
MATTERS
Certain
legal matters under BVI law will be passed upon for us by Conyers Dill & Pearman, 29th Floor One Exchange Square, 8 Connaught
Place, Central, Hong Kong.
ENFORCEMENT
OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
Kingtone
Wirelessinfo Solution Holding Ltd is a BVI company and our principal executive offices are located in China. A majority of our
directors and officers reside outside the United States. In addition, almost all of our assets and the assets of our directors
and officers are located outside the United States. As a result, you may have difficulty serving legal process within the United
States upon us or any of these persons. You may also have difficulty enforcing, both in and outside the United States, judgments
you may obtain in the United States courts against us or these persons in any action, including actions based upon the civil liability
provisions of United States federal or state securities laws. Furthermore, it is uncertain whether the courts of the BVI would
enter judgments in original actions brought in those courts predicated on United States federal or state securities laws.
EXPERTS
The
consolidated financial statements of Kingtone Wirelessinfo Solution Holding Ltd, as of September 30, 2017 and 2016 and for the
years ended September 30, 2017, 2016 and 2015 included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended September 30, 2017
and incorporated by reference herein and in the registration statement, have been audited by BDO China Shu Lun Pan Certified Public
Accountants LLP,an independent registered public accounting firm, as set forth in their report thereon, and incorporated by reference
elsewhere herein. Such financial statements are incorporated herein by reference in reliance upon such report given on the authority
of said firm as expert in auditing and accounting.
The
offices of BDO China Shu Lun Pan Certified Public Accountants LLP are located at 10th Floor, Building 7, Yard 16, Xisihuan Zhong
Road, Hai Dian District, Beijing, P.R.China.
INDEMNIFICATION
Insofar
as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons
controlling the company pursuant to provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, or otherwise,
we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person
of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the BVI courts to be contrary
to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime.
Under
the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association, subject to the BVI Business Companies
Act, 2004 (as amended) (the “Act”), the Company shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer (excluding the auditors), or who is or
was serving at the Company’s request as a director or officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise. Each such indemnified person shall be indemnified out of the Company’s assets against any liability, action,
proceeding, claim, demand, judgments, fines, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever which they or any
of them may reasonably incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions other than such liability
that they may incur by reason of their own actual fraud or willful default. In addition, to be entitled to indemnification, an
indemnified person must not have acted in such a manner as to have incurred the liability by virtue of having committed actual
fraud or willful default but no person shall be found to have committed actual fraud or willful default unless or until a court
of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.
No
indemnified person will be personally liable to the Company for damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer;
provided
, however, that the foregoing provision will not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer for:
(a)
acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law,
(b)
for the violation of any provision of the Act, as amended from time to time, that expressly provides for liability of directors
or officers notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary.

ITEM
9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information
set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or
high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and
(iii)
To include any additional or changed material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
this Registration Statement;
provided,
however
, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration
Statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold
at the termination of the offering.
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing
of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference
in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion
of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
will, unless in the opinion of its 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.

to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it
