The Company

and marketing the lower priced merchandise to the retail
public and wholesalers. It is anticipated that we can sell
the products at a substantial discount below wholesale
prices for similar products.
Our principal executive offices are located at 6990 South Park
Centre Drive, Suite 315, Salt Lake City, Utah 84121. Our
telephone number is( 801)567-0111 ext. 6315.

Khan, Inc.
<PAGE> 4
Risk Factors
Risks related to our financial condition
-----------------------------------------
We have no operating history so it will be difficult for
you to evaluate an investment in our common stock.
We were formed on March 28, 2000, and since that time our business
activities have been limited to amending the Articles of the Corporation on
April 25, 2000 to correct the spelling of "Khan", and contacting companies
that acquire and warehouse inventory from factory overruns and retailers with
overstocks in California. There is no assurance that we will be successful in
acquiring factory overruns or overstock merchandise for sale at discount
prices.
Unless we can raise capital in this offering, we may be
unable to continue in business.
We do not have an established source of revenue sufficient to cover our
operating costs to allow us to continue as a going concern. Our ability to
continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully
complete this offering, operate profitably and/or raise additional capital
through other means.
The proceeds from this offering will meet our anticipated needs
for only 12 months, and we will likely require additional sources
of financing. Additional financing may be difficult to achieve
and may dilute your interest.
We currently anticipate that the net proceeds from the offering,
together with available funds, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated
needs for at least the next 12 months. We expect to generate losses until
such time as merchandise from manufacturers or retailers with overruns are
located and product is sold to retailers and wholesalers. We may also need
additional funding which may not be available when needed. Also, if we are
able to raise additional funds and we do so by issuing equity securities, you
may experience significant dilution of your ownership interest and holders of
these securities may have rights senior to those of the holders of our common
stock. If we obtain additional financing by issuing debt securities, the terms
of these securities could restrict or prevent us from paying dividends and
could limit our flexibility in making business decisions. In this case, the
value of your investment could be reduced.
Risks related to our business
-----------------------------
Our current officers and directors have minimal experience
in the wholesale and retail sales.
Kristine Ramsey, an officer and director, has approximately two years
experience as a merchandiser with Revlon. However, her experience is limited
and she has no experience in discount or overrun merchandise. William Roberts
has approximately one year experience as a
<PAGE> 5
sales representative/merchandiser to retailers for Keebler Corporation. He has
no experience in discount or overrun merchandise. The other officers and
directors have no experience in retail and wholesale sales.
The amount of time officers and directors have to devote
to our business is limited.
The amount of time which our officers and directors will devote to our
business will be limited. They may be unable to devote the time necessary to
fully develop the business due to the fact that they devote time to other
business interests they have. Our president also serves as an officer and
director in other entities engaged in various businesses. Thus, there exists
potential conflicts of interest, including, among other things, time, effort
and corporate opportunity involved with participation in other such business
entities.
We will encounter substantial competition
The discount market for wholesale and retail merchandise is highly
competitive and involves a high degree of risk and there is no assurance that
we will be able to operate profitably. In the retail segment of our business,
which will be minimal, we will experience substantial competition with other
entities such as McFruggles, All-A-Dollar and Discount Houses in the sale and
marketing of merchandise all of which have greater name recognition and
experience.
Risks related to this offering, our stock price, and corporate control
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Investors are relying on management's discretion in the use
of proceeds from this offering.
Investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding
the application of a significant portion of the proceeds from this offering.
Investors will rely on management's discretion in identifying merchandise
which may have potential value. If management uses the proceeds of this
offering for purposes which do not result in increasing our revenues, the
value of your investment could be reduced.
The price of the shares in this offering was
arbitrarily determined.
If you purchase shares of our common stock in this offering, you will
pay a price that was not established in a competitive market but was
determined arbitrarily by us. The price bears no relationship to our assets,
shareholders' value or any other recognized criteria of value, and it should
not be considered to be an indication of our actual value. The price of the
common stock that will prevail in any market that develops after the offering
may be higher or lower than the price you paid. The stock market, in general,
has been volatile and has experienced fluctuations that have often been
unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies like
ours. The market price of our common stock could be volatile and subject to
wide
<PAGE> 6
fluctuations.
We have no public market for our stock.
There is no public market for our shares of common stock. Although we
intend to apply for listing on the OTC bulletin board as soon a we meet
listing requirements, there is no assurance that we will be granted a listing.
If we are granted a listing, there is no assurance that a market for our
common shares will develop. If a market develops, there can be no assurance
that the price of our shares in the market will be equal to or greater than
the price per share investors pay in this offering; in fact, the price of our
shares in any market that may develop could be significantly lower. Investors
in this offering may have difficulty liquidating their investment.
Our officers and directors control a significant
portion of our stock.
Officers, directors and existing stockholders, whose interests may
differ from other stockholders, will have the ability to exercise significant
control over us. Our officers and directors and entities affiliated with them
will, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately 33% of our common stock
following this offering in the event the maximum offering is sold. These
stockholders will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters
requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors,
the approval of significant corporate transactions, and any change of control
of Kubla Khan, Inc.
You will suffer an immediate and substantial dilution to
your investment if you purchase shares in this offering.
Investors purchasing shares in this offering will incur immediate and
substantial dilution in their investments. The initial public offering price
per share will exceed our net tangible book value per share. See "Dilution"
for a calculation of the extent to which your investment will be diluted.
There is no assurance that the $ 75,000 offering amount in
this self-underwritten offering will be sold. There is
no minimum proceeds in this offering; any proceeds will be
immediately available to us. An inability to achieve proceeds
of $75,000 could have a material adverse impact on our
ability to develop our business.
The shares are being sold by the President, William S. (Bill) Roberts,
in a self-underwritten public offering of 75,000 shares. No individual or
firm is committed to purchase or take any of the shares. There is no
assurance that any portion of the shares will be sold. There is no minimum in
this offering and funds are available to us immediately upon receipt. Your
investment will not be returned if we do not raise the full $75,000. If we do
not succeed in achieving proceeds of $75,000, we may not have sufficient funds
to effect our business plan for
<PAGE> 7
the next 12 months and we will need to reduce the amount of inventory we
purchase.
Forward-looking Statements
Many statements made in this prospectus under the captions "Prospectus
Summary", "Risk Factors", "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of
Operations", "Business" and elsewhere are forward-looking statements that are
not based on historical facts. Because these forward-looking statements
involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these
forward-looking statements including those discussed under "Risk Factors."
The forward-looking statements presented in this prospectus are based on
events through the date on which the statements are made.
Use of Proceeds
The net proceeds to be realized by us from this offering, after
deducting estimated offering related expenses of $8,000, will be approximately
$67,000 if all shares are sold. It is possible that we will not sell any
shares in the offering.
We propose to use the net proceeds as follows, in order of priority:
Assuming sale Assuming sale Assuming sale
of 100% or of 50% or of 25% or
Description 75,000 shares 37,500 shares 18,750 shares
------------ -------------- ------------- -------------
Estimated Offering Expense......$ 8,000 $ 8,000 $ 8,000
Merchandise Inventory........... 40,000 15,000 7,000
Storage Unit.................... 2,000 2,000 1,000
Rent............................ 6,000 3,000 1,500

Office Equipment................ 2,500 0 0
-------------- ------------- -------------
Total.....................$ 75,000 $ 37,500 $ 18,750
============== ============= =============
The working capital reserve may be used for general corporate purposes
to operate, manage and acquire inventory. We presently have no commitments or
agreements, and we are not involved in any negotiations, with respect to any
acquisitions of merchandise.
The amounts set forth in the use of proceeds table merely indicate the
proposed use of proceeds, and actual expenditures may vary substantially from
these estimates depending upon market and economic conditions once operations
are commenced. We may, in the future, seek additional funds through loans or
other financing arrangements.
<PAGE> 8
Pending expenditures of the proceeds of this offering, we may make
temporary investments in short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing
securities, money market accounts, insured certificates of deposit and/or in
insured banking accounts.
We presently do not pay our officers and directors any amount of salary.
In the event we are successful in completing this offering, we propose to then
begin paying our officers approximately $15.00 per hour for future services
while they work for us. Any full time employees, including officers if they
work full time, will be paid salaries competitive in the industry subject to
our ability to do so.
Determination of Offering Price
As of the date of this prospectus, there is no public market for our
common stock. The offering price of the shares was determined arbitrarily by
us and should not be considered an indication of the actual value of our
company or our shares of common stock. It was not based on any established
criteria of value and bears no relation to our assets, book value, earnings or
net worth. In determining the offering price and the number of shares to be
offered, we considered such factors as the price paid by our initial
investors, our financial condition, our potential for profit and the general
condition of the securities market. The offering price of $1.00 per share was
decided on by us because we believe that the price of $1.00 per share will be
the easiest price at which to sell the shares. The price of the common stock
that will prevail in any market that develops after the offering, if any, may
be higher or lower than the price you paid. There is also no assurance
that an active market will ever develop in our securities. You may not be
able to resell any shares you purchased in this offering following this
offering. Our common stock has never been traded on any exchange or market
prior to this offering.
Dilution
The following table summarizes the comparative ownership and capital
contributions of existing common stock shareholders and investors in this
offering assuming all 75,000 shares are sold.
Shares owned Total consideration Average
------------------ -------------------- price per
Number % Amount % share
---------- ------ ------------- ----- ----------
Present shareholders 36,744 32.88% $ 7,500 9.09% $ 0.20
New investors 75,000 67.12% $ 75,000 90.91% $ 1.00
The table appearing above has been prepared assuming that none of the
present shareholders purchases additional shares in this offering.
Our pro forma net tangible book value if all shares are sold is $
74,500 or approximately $0.67 per share. Pro Forma net tangible book value
per share represents our total tangible assets
<PAGE> 9
less our total liabilities divided by the number of shares of our common stock
outstanding.
Pro forma net tangible book value dilution per share represents the
difference between the amount paid per share by purchasers of common stock in
this offering and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of common
stock as adjusted to give effect to this offering. After giving effect to the
sale of 75,000 shares of common stock offered at $ 1.00 per share, our
adjusted net tangible book value would be approximately $74,500 or
approximately $ 0.67 per share of common stock. This represents an immediate
increase in pro forma net tangible book value of approximately $0.47 per share
to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of approximately $0.33 per
share to new investors in this offering.
* Initial public offering price per share................. $ 1.00
* Net tangible book value per share after offering.........$ 0.67
* Decrease of net tangible book value after offering.......$ 0.33
* Dilution per share to new shareholders...................$ 0.33
* Increase to current shareholders.........................$ 0.47
Selling Security Holders
There are no selling security holders in this offering.
Plan of Distribution
How this offering will be sold
------------------------------
Kubla Khan, Inc. will sell shares of its common stock according to this
prospectus directly to any and all suitable investors in approved states in
which these securities are registered or are exempt from registration. This
is a self-underwritten offering with 75,000 shares offered . William S. (Bill)
Roberts, our President, will sell the shares. He will not receive commissions
or other offering remuneration of any kind for selling shares in this
offering.
No commitment for purchase of shares; no escrow of funds
--------------------------------------------------------
No one has committed to purchase or take any of the shares offered. In
the event that the 75,000 shares having a gross subscription price of $ 75,000
are not sold within 180 days from the date of this prospectus, we may extend
this offering for an additional 90 days. We are not escrowing funds and there
is no minimum in this offering. All proceeds raised will be immediately
available for our use upon receipt. No funds will be returned to investors if
we do not achieve $75,000 in proceeds.
The shares are offered subject to prior sale, when, as, and if delivered
to and accepted by us, and subject to approval of some matters by legal
counsel. We reserve the right to withdraw,
<PAGE> 10
cancel or modify such offer and to reject any offer in whole or in part.
Delivery of the shares will be made to investors as soon as practicable upon
acceptance of cash.
How to subscribe
----------------
In order to purchase shares in this offering, you must subscribe to
purchase a minimum of at least 100 shares. No maximum purchase amount has
been set by us.
If you desire to subscribe for shares in this offering, you must
complete a subscription agreement and pay the entire subscription amount in
wire transferred funds, cash, check or money order upon subscribing. You must
deliver the subscription agreement directly to William S. (Bill) Roberts.
Checks must be made payable to "Kubla Khan, Inc."
By signing the subscription agreement, you are making a binding offer to
buy shares. The subscription agreement also constitutes your agreement to
indemnify us against liabilities incurred because of any misstatements and
omissions you make in the subscription agreement. All subscriptions are
subject to acceptance by us.
You are urged to consult your own counsel and accountant with respect to
the merits of an investment in the shares.
Purchases by officers, directors and principal shareholders
-----------------------------------------------------------
Our officers, directors and principal shareholder and persons
associated with them may purchase some of the shares being offered according
to this prospectus, not to exceed 33% of the shares sold in this offering.
Any securities purchased by our officers, directors, and principal
shareholders will be purchased for investment purposes only and not for the
purpose of redistribution. Moreover, it is not intended that the proceeds from
this offering will be utilized, directly or indirectly, to enable anyone,
including officers and directors, to purchase the shares offered.
Purchases of shares by officers and directors will result in management
increasing its control of Kubla Khan Inc. Consequently, this offering could
close with a greater percentage of shares being held by present management and
with lesser participation by the other investors than would otherwise be the
case.
Legal Proceedings
There are no legal proceedings or pending litigation to which we are a
party or against any of our officers or directors as a result of their
capacities with Kubla Khan and we are not aware of any threat of such
litigation. We are not aware of any proceeding involving us that a
governmental authority may be contemplating.

Each of the above persons will serve as director until our next annual

All officers of Kubla Khan serve at the pleasure of the board of
directors and will hold office until the next annual meeting of the Board of
Directors. There is no person who is expected to make any significant
contribution to the business of Kubla Khan other than the current officers and
directors. We do not have employment agreements with any of our officers or
directors.
The officers and directors each have experience in businesses most of
which are unrelated to the type of business proposed by us. We believe that
the diverse areas in which the officers and directors acquired their
experience is important in building a well rounded management base. Our
management has extensive experience in the following areas:
* sales;
* marketing;
* investment and capital markets
Business experience of officers and directors
---------------------------------------------
WILLIAM S. ROBERTS, our President and Chairman of The Board of
Directors, earned his accounting degree in March of 1968. Bill began his
career in the securities industry as Controller, Trader and Registered
Representative with American Funds and Trusts, Inc., Salt Lake City, Utah.
From 1972-1979, he was Vice-President, Financial Principal and CFO of two
stock brokerage firms, after which time he was a retail stock broker with a
number of stock brokerage firms in Salt Lake City, Utah. He was later
President of AAOGI Investment Corp., a NASD member securities firm which was
subsequently sold. Upon leaving the stock brokerage business, he concentrated
on his own corporate advisory firm guiding and directing companies to help
them achieve their goals of going public. Prior to 1968, Bill was area sales
manager for Keebler Corporation (cookies, crackers, and candies) in Nevada in
the Reno and Lake Tahoe area. Most recently Bill was employed by Amembal
Capital Corporation, Salt Lake City, Utah, as National Account Manager Senior
Associate in the capital equipment leasing industry.
Over 20 years ago, Bill signed a consent decree with the US Securities
and Exchange
<PAGE> 12
Commission in regards to an SEC investigation of Le Barron Securities, Inc.
without admitting or denying guilt. Bill was Vice-President and Financial
Principal of Le Barron Securities, Inc. The penalties imposed under this
decree were spread over an 8 month period of time. For the first four months,
Bill was barred from being associated in the securities industry. For the
following four months, Bill was allowed to be involved in the securities
industries as a Registered Representative but barred from being a Registered
Principal. At the end of the eight months, Bill was allowed to resume full
involvement in the securities industries.
WALLACE PIDCOCK, our Vice-President and Director since 1993 has been
Director of Security for Smith Food and Drug Store in the Las Vegas, NV area.
From 1989-1993 he was Security Investigator and was employed in celebrity
protection for the Desert Inn and Casino. From 1986-1989 he was employed as a
Private Investigator. From 1973-1986, Wallace worked for Southern Pacific
Railroad as a brakeman.
KRISTINE D. RAMSEY will act as our Secretary, Treasurer and Director.
From 1996-1998, Kristine acted as a merchandiser with both Maybelline and
Revlon involved in merchandise resets. From 1998-2000 she was employed with
Chipsea Nursery as a merchandiser Since August, 2000, she has been
merchandising flowers on a part time basis as a merchandise representative.
Kristine will be the party most involved with the day to day operations of the
business.
Involvement in other public companies
-------------------------------------
Mr. Roberts since 1998 has been the Secretary, Treasurer, and Director
of Industries International, Inc. which is a Nevada corporation attempting to
develop a golf course in Moapa Valley (Overton), Nevada. It is anticipated the
company will very shortly be filing a 10SB Registration Statement in order to
allow trading of securities to the public.
There are no other involvements of any of our officers and directors in
any public companies.
Significant employees
---------------------
We do not intend to hire an office staff. We believe that the company
can be effectively managed by its officers and directors. There may be
occasions, such as retail selling events, when it will be necessary for the
company to hire temporary help at wages consistent with those paid for similar
functions performed in the industry.
Officers and directors, while performing the functions of employees,
will be compensated on a per hour basis at the rate of $15.00 per hour for
their time. It is anticipated that the majority of those functions will be
performed by Kris Ramsey who will devote approximately 100% of her time to
Kubla Khan; Bill Roberts will devote approximately 25% of his time to Kubla
Khan.
<PAGE> 13
Involvement in certain legal proceedings
----------------------------------------
In March of 1996, the secretary and treasurer, Kristine Ramsey, filed a
Chapter 7 Petition in Bankruptcy which was discharged on June 25, 1996. With
the exception of the bankruptcy filed by Kristine, during the past five years,
no present or former director, executive officer, or person nominated to
become a director or executive officer of Kubla Khan, Inc:
* has filed a petition under federal bankruptcy laws or any state
insolvency law, nor had a receiver, fiscal agent or similar
officer appointed by a court for the business or property of

when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally
available for that purpose after payment of any dividends to the holders of

Disclosure of Commission Position of Indemnification for
Securities Act Liabilities
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling
persons according to the provisions described above, 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
unenforceable.
In the event a claim for indemnification against such liabilities other
than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by any of our directors,
officers or controlling persons in the
<PAGE> 16
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being sold in this offering, 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 is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
Organization Within the Last Five Years
No promoters have been involved with Kubla Khan either directly or
indirectly since its inception on March 28, 2000.
Description of Business
Business development
--------------------
Kubla Khan, Inc. was organized as a Utah corporation on March 28, 2000.
On April 25, 2000, the Company amended the articles to correct the spelling of
the name from Kubla Kahn to Kubla "Khan". Kubla Khan was incorporated to
develop relationships with companies which purchase factory overruns from
manufacturers and distressed merchandise from retailers at discounts. As a
result, it is hoped that these companies can offer us new high quality
products in quantity whereby the costs to us is substantially discounted
(generally around 30% of the standard wholesale cost for the same product).
It is anticipated that we will primarily sell to retailers, however, we also
intend to engage in retail sales on a limited basis.
Our business
------------
Principal products or services and their markets
Our primary business objective is to satisfy and fulfill the demand of
retailers for high quality merchandise at below wholesale costs. We will
purchase new, high quality items in quantity whereby we can sell these items
immediately to retailers for an amount which includes a substantial profit to
us. We will maximize net profits by minimizing fixed overhead such as salary
and employee benefits.
Distribution methods
We anticipate selling nationwide, but our initial focus will be in the
Utah area.
Milestones
We have set the following milestones to effect our business plan.
<PAGE> 17
Event Date
------ ----
* Complete sale of offering 6 -9 mos. from effective date
* Continue to research and solidify
relationships with manufacturers and
retailers with available overstock Now and ongoing

* Rent storage facility When needed
* Begin sales of inventory Upon purchase of first
inventory
* Test some limited retail sales 12 months
* Increase volume of inventory purchase

Competitive business conditions, methods of competition,
our competitive position
We will be in direct competition with other entities that market on a
discount basis and have greater name recognition and assets than we have.
Dependence on a few major suppliers
At the present time we are attempting to establish working arrangements
with suppliers in California but as of this date there are no signed
contracts.
Number of employees
It is anticipated that the company will primarily be operated by
Kristine D. Ramsey and William S. Roberts.
Reports to securities holders

required to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934. We will file annual, quarterly and other reports with
the Securities and Exchange Commission which will also be available at
www.sec.gov.
Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
We have had only limited operations since our inception in March 2000.
We have limited assets of $7,444 most of which are comprised of a prepaid
legal retainer, organizational costs and deferred offering costs. We also owe
$592 to one of our officers/stockholders.
Prior to this offering, we have dedicated time to initiating contacts
and developing relationships with various entities which purchase factory
overruns from manufacturers and distressed merchandise from retailers at a
discount. Our goal has been to seek merchandise/inventory that is both high
quality and below existing wholesale prices. Upon completion of this
offering, and the for the following twelve months, Management intends to
* aggressively pursue these relationships in an effort to acquire
high quality merchandise overruns and distressed merchandise for
immediate resale to retailers; we will attempt to develop these
relationships in the Western US, primarily in California; we
intend to resell this merchandise in the Western US, primarily in
Utah
* to purchase such merchandise at quantities and at prices that will
average approximately 30% of the standard wholesale cost for such
product in the industry; we hope to resell our merchandise for an
approximate 50% profit to us.
* pursue some limited retail sales on a "test the market" basis
* limit overhead by (a) paying only nominal rent to William (Bill)
Roberts for use of an office in his home; (b) by limiting payroll
and administrative expenses and (c) by the use sales incentives
bonuses of 2.5% of net profits to two of our officers each
month.
During the next twelve months, our cash requirements will include the
following:
* $500 per month office rent;
<PAGE> 19
* compensation to two of our officers of approximately $15.00 per
hour not to exceed an aggregate of $10,000 in the next twelve
month period unless generated from operating revenues;
* legal and accounting expenses associated with compliance with SEC
reporting obligations, estimated at $ 5,000
* miscellaneous overhead of approximately $3000;
* cash to purchase our inventory.
We will require a minimum of $27,000 for the next 12 month for day to
day operating expenses which does not include the $40,000 we need for our
initial inventory purchases. We believes that the anticipated $67,000 in net
proceeds from this offering will be sufficient to cover both our general
operating expenses as well as implementing our business plan through the
purchase of inventory. If we do not receive the full amount of proceeds, we
will be required to purchase less inventory and find other ways to cut
expenses in order to remain operational.
Even if we are able to raise the full $75,000 in the offering, there is
no guarantee that the funds available to us will be sufficient to achieve our
goal of penetrating the highly competitive market of retail and wholesale
sales. We will use every effort to minimize our expenses during our first year
of operations and have no plans for additional employees until or unless
warranted due to business needs.
If we do not succeed in seeing limited revenues or, at minimum, the
potential of limited revenues, in the next twelve months, we may be forced to
discontinue operations unless we are able to raise additional capital.
Management is not experienced in developmental companies and may not have
correctly estimated its inventory needs for a start up company such as Kubla
Khan nor anticipated purchase prices and resale prices accurately. Even if we
succeed in purchasing inventory at what we believe is a discounted price, we
could have difficulty in reselling the same for prices which would be
profitable to us. Profit margins on resales of goods could prove to be
insufficient to cover our operating expenses. We may need additional funds
even if we begin generating revenues; we may also need additional financing
for expansion. It may be difficult for us to succeed in securing additional
financing. We may be able to attract some private investors, or officers and
directors may be willing to make additional cash contributions, advancements
or loans. In the alternative, we could attempt some form of debt or equity
financing. However, there is no guarantee that any of the foregoing methods
of financing would be successful. If we fail to achieve at least a portion of
our business goals in the next twelve months with the funds available to us,
there is substantial uncertainty as to whether we can continue operations.
<PAGE> 20
Description of Property
At the present time we have no property. We intend to pay $500 per month
rent to William (Bill) Roberts (president and CEO) for the use of office space
in his home.
Certain Relationship and Related Transactions
Office rent
-----------
We pay rent of $500.00 per month for office space which is in the
residence of Mr. William S. Roberts and consists of one room with
approximately 300 square feet and a telephone. Mr. Roberts has agreed to the
use of his residence until such time as we require additional office space.
Purchase of common stock
-----------------------
Three of our officers/directors, as well as one individual who is not an
officer or director, purchased stock at inception; 36,744 common shares were
purchased by the four current shareholders for $7,500.
Advances by officers/directors
------------------------------
Officers and directors have advanced money for their own travel expenses
($592 at June 30, 2000) which will be reimbursed without interest once the
offering is completed. No compensation has been accrued or deferred by any
officer or director.
Resolving conflicts of interest
-------------------------------
The board of directors has determined that its directors are to disclose
all conflicts of interest and all corporate opportunities to the entire board
of directors. Any transaction involving a conflict of interest engaged in by
Kubla Khan, Inc. shall be on terms not less favorable than that which could be
obtained from an unrelated third party.
Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
No market for our shares
------------------------
As of the date of this prospectus and for the foreseeable future, there
is no public or private market for our shares. In the event that we are
successful in raising capital through this offering, there will still be only
a limited market (if any at all) for our shares. Only in the event that we
are successful in making this initial public offering of our common stock do
we anticipate that we will ever have any public market for our securities. In
the event there is no market for our shares, you could suffer a total loss of
all monies paid to us for your shares. No
<PAGE> 21
assurance can be given that we will be able to successfully complete this
initial public offering of our common stock and develop and sustain a public
market for our common stock.
Effect of Penny Stock Reform Act and Rule 15g-9
The shares will be subject to the Penny Stock Reform Act which may affect
your ability to sell your shares in any secondary market.
(a) Penny Stock Reform Act. In October 1990 Congress enacted the
Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 to counter fraudulent practices common in penny
stock transactions. Under Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act a security will be
defined as a "penny stock" unless it is:
* listed on approved national securities exchanges;
* a security registered or approved for registration and traded on a
national securities exchange that meets specific guidelines, where
the trade is effected through the facilities of that national
exchange;
* a security listed on NASDAQ;
* a security of an issuer that meets minimum financial requirements;
or
* a security with a price of at least $5.00 per share in the
transaction in question or that has a bid quotation, as defined in
the Rule, of at least $5.00 per share.
Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny
stocks" are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to
a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver
a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny
stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must
provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny
stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the
transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each
penny stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that, prior to a
transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written
determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser
and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These
disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading
activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny
stock rules. We anticipate that following a successful completion of this
offering, our shares of common stock will be subject to the penny stock rules.
Under the Penny Stock Reform Act, brokers and/or dealers, prior to
effecting a
<PAGE> 22
transaction in a penny stock, will be required to provide investors with
written disclosure documents containing information concerning various aspects
involved in the market for penny stocks as well as specific information about
the subject security and the transaction involving the purchase and sale of
that security. Subsequent to the transaction, the broker will be required to
deliver monthly or quarterly statements containing specific information about
the subject security. These added disclosure requirements will most likely
negatively affect the ability of purchasers herein to sell their securities in
any secondary market.
(b) Rule 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act imposes additional
sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons
other than established customers. For transactions covered by the rule, the
broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser
and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior to the
sale. Consequently, the rule may also affect the ability of purchasers in this
offering to sell their securities in any secondary market.
Possible issuance of additional securities
------------------------------------------
We may need additional financing to grow our proposed business. If we
are able to raise additional funds and we do so by issuing equity securities,
you may experience significant dilution of your ownership interest and holders
of the new securities issued may have rights senior to those of the holders of
our common stock. If we obtain additional financing by issuing debt
securities, the terms of these securities could restrict or prevent us from
paying dividends and could limit our flexibility in making business decisions.
In this case, the value of your investment could be reduced.
Other provisions
----------------
The shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, when issued,
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
You will have no preemptive rights with respect to any shares of our
capital stock or any other securities convertible into our common stock or
rights or options to purchase any such shares.
Shares subject to conversion
----------------------------
There are no shares reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding
warrants, nor are there currently any outstanding warrants.
Shares subject to Rule 144
--------------------------
All of our currently outstanding shares, 36,744 common shares, are
"restricted or control securities". The shares may be sold in compliance with
the requirements of Rule 144,
<PAGE> 23
after a minimum one year holding period has been met. All of the common
shares held by the officers, directors and principal shareholders, were issued
on March 28, 2000. This means that the shares will be eligible for resale
under Rule 144 one year from the date of issuance, provided a public market
for the shares exists, and provided all of the applicable terms and provisions
of Rule 144 are met.
OTC bulletin board
------------------
We intend to apply to have our shares cleared for trading on the OTC
bulletin board. We have not, as of the date of this prospectus, approached
any broker-dealer regarding application for listing on the OTC bulletin board.
Holders
-------
We currently have only 4 shareholders.
Dividends
---------
We have never paid dividends on our common stock. The Board of
Directors presently intends to pursue a policy of retaining earnings, if any,
for use in our operations and to finance expansion of our business. Any
declaration and payment of dividends in the future, of which there can be no
assurance, will be determined by our Board of Directors in light of conditions
then existing, including our earnings, financial condition, capital
requirements and other factors. There are presently no dividends which are
accrued or owing with respect to our outstanding stock. No assurance can be
given that dividends will ever be declared or paid on our common stock in the
future.
Executive Compensation
As of the date of this prospectus, none of our officers or directors
have received any cash compensation from Kubla Khan, Inc.; nor have our
officers and directors received any other type of compensation in the form of
restricted stock awards, options or other long or short term compensation.
Following a successful completion of this offering, and while the
officers and directors are working as employees of Kubla Khan, they will be
compensated at the rate of $15.00 per hour. Additionally, as an incentive to
maximize gross profit margins, we will pay to William S. Roberts and Kristine
D. Ramsey a monthly bonus of 2.5% of our net profits for the month to each.
With the exception of the first $10,000, these bonuses shall only be paid out
of net operating profits (if any) and shall not accrue from one month to the
next.

Kubla Khan, Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nature of business - Kubla Khan, Inc. was incorporated on March 28, 2000, in
the state of Utah. The Company has not conducted any operations as June 30,
2000 and has incurred only expenses for travel for the review of various
business opportunities and marketing strategies.
Intangibles - Organizational costs consisting of legal fees of $1,000 are
being amortized to expense over 60 months starting in April, 2000.
Income taxes - The Company has no deferred tax assets or liabilities. A tax
loss carryforward of $648 has occurred, and is available for carryforward to
offset future profits for the next 20 years. No tax benefit for the loss
carryforward has been established due to the Company's lack of operating
history and it's ability to demonstrate that it can realize a profit from
future operations.
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those
estimates.
Per share information - Per share information has been computed using the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Note 2 - Advances from Officers/Stockholder
--------------------------------------------
The officers of the Company have paid their own travel costs, which will be
eventually reimbursed by the Company without interest. No compensation has
been accrued for their services through June 30, 2000.
Note 3- Common Stock/Prepaid Legal Fees/Deferred Offering Costs
------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company issued 36,744 shares for $7,500 in cash from four shareholders.
The Company advanced $7,000 to its legal counsel, who has spent $1,000 in
organizing the Company and incurred $1,000 in fees on a securities
registration statement which amount is reflected in the balance sheet as
deferred offering costs. The remaining $5,000 is being held as a retainer
against future legal expenses or can be refunded to the Company at their
request.

Part II - Information Not Required in Prospectus
Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Pursuant to Utah Code Annotated Section 16-10a-841, our Articles of
Incorporation and bylaws provide for the indemnification of present and former
directors and officers and each person who serves at our request as our
officer or director. We will indemnify such individuals against all costs,
expenses and liabilities incurred in a threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding brought because such individual is our director or
officer. Such individual must have conducted himself in good faith and
reasonably believed that his conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best
interest. In a criminal action he must not have had a reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful. This right of indemnification is not
exclusive of other rights the individual is entitled to as a matter of law or
otherwise.
Article XX of our Articles of Incorporation specifically limits personal
liability of our officers and directors to the corporation pursuant to Utah
Code Annotated 16-10a-841.
Our bylaws also contain provisions for indemnification set forth under
Article VIII which also provides for indemnification of those individuals who
serve at the at the request of the board of directors on any committee as well
as employees .
We will not indemnify an individual adjudged liable to us due to his
negligence or wilful misconduct toward us, or if he improperly received
personal benefit although a conviction based on a guilty plea or nolo
contendre is not in itself deemed adjudication that such individual is liable
to us. Determination on an individual's rights under those circumstances will
be determined under the procedures set forth under our bylaws.

Item 26. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
The following unregistered securities have been issued since the Kubla
Khan Inc.'s inception in March 28, 2000.
At inception four individuals contributed $7,500 to Kubla Khan Inc. for
an aggregate of 36,744 unregistered common shares. The shares were issued
under the exemption provided for under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933 as an issuance "not involving a public offering". We believe that each
of these purchasers (i) was aware that the securities had not been registered
under federal securities laws, (ii) acquired the securities for his/her/its
own account for investment purposes and not with a view to or for resale in
connection with any distribution for purpose of the federal securities laws,
(iii) understood that the securities would need to be indefinitely held unless
registered or an exemption from registration applied to a proposed disposition
and (iv) was aware that the certificate representing the securities would bear
a legend restricting their transfer. We believe that, in light of the
foregoing, the sale of our securities to the respective acquirers did not
constitute the sale of an unregistered security in violation of the federal
securities laws and regulations by reason of the exemptions provided under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder.

Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
Kubla Khan, Inc. according to the
<PAGE> 38
provisions described above, or otherwise, Kubla Khan Inc., has 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
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities, other than the payment by Kubla Khan, Inc. of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of Kubla Khan, Inc. 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, Kubla Khan, Inc. 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 Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
a. to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the

b. to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after

recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement;
c. to include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the
registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, 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 any registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of
the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
