EXPLANATORY NOTE
This registration statement
(this “Registration Statement”) is filed by GLOBAL MOFY AI LIMITED, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the
Cayman Islands (the “Registrant”) to register securities issuable pursuant to the Global Mofy AI Limited October 2025 Equity
Incentive Plan (as amended and restated, the “October 2025 Equity Incentive Plan”). The securities registered hereby consist
of 5,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares, US$0.00003 par value per share of the Registrant, which represent the number of Class A Ordinary
Shares that were authorized under the October 2025 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate number of additional shares which
may be offered and issued to prevent dilution from share splits, share dividends or similar transactions as provided in the October 2025
Equity Incentive Plan. Any Class A Ordinary Shares covered by an award granted under the October 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (or portion
of an award) that terminates, expires, lapses or repurchased for any reason will be deemed not to have been issued for purposes of determining
the maximum aggregate number of Class A Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the October 2025 Equity Incentive Plan.

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Cayman
Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification
of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy,
such as to provide indemnification against the consequences of committing a crime, or against the indemnified person’s own fraud,
dishonesty, willful default or willful neglect.
Our
Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that the Company shall indemnify each existing or former secretary,
director (including alternate directors) and other officer of the Company (including an investment adviser or an administrator or liquidator)
and their personal representatives against:
| |
(1) |
all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred or sustained by the existing or former director (including alternate directors) or officer in or about the conduct of the Company’s business or affairs or in the execution or discharge of the existing or former secretary’s, director’s (including alternate directors’) or officer’s duties, powers, authorities or discretions; and |
| |
(2) |
without limitation to paragraph (1), all costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by the existing or former secretary, director (including alternate directors) or officer in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative proceedings (whether threatened, pending or completed) concerning the Company or its affairs in any court or tribunal, whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere, |
provided that no such existing
or former secretary, director (including alternate directors) or officer, however, shall be indemnified in respect of any matter arising
out of his own dishonesty.
In addition, we have entered
into indemnification agreements with our prior directors and executive officers that provide such persons with additional indemnification
beyond that provided in our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.
Insofar as indemnification
for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling us under the foregoing
provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits.
Reference is hereby made to
the Exhibit Index, which is incorporated herein by reference.
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: |
| |
(a) |
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; |
| |
(b) |
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; and |
| |
(c) |
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; |
provided, however,
that paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post- effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 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.
