PROXY STATEMENT
for
Special Meeting of Stockholders
to be held on May 12, 2006
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION
Your proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of City Network, Inc., a
Nevada corporation (the "Company", "we", "us" or "our"), for use at the Special
Meeting of stockholders to be held on May 12, 2006, at 10:00 a.m. (local time),
at B2F. No. 726, Jhongjheng Rd., Jhonghe City, Taipei County 235, Taiwan, ROC
[Chinese address provided], and at any adjournment or postponement thereof (the
"Special Meeting"), for the following purposes:
1. To approve the issuance of Common Stock in connection with
transactions with Cornell Capital Partners, LP and its affiliates,
including shares (i) issuable upon conversion of the Company's secured
convertible notes; (ii) issuable upon the exercise of warrants issued
to the investor with the notes, as those terms are defined herein;
(iii) securing the Company's secured convertible notes; (iv) issuable
to pay for liquidated damages, in lieu of cash payments, in connection
with the Company's obligation to register conversion shares and
warrant shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and (v)
issued as compensation for such transactions, to the extent such
issuances require stockholder approval under The American Stock
Exchange rules; and
2. To transact any other business as may properly be presented at the
Special Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.
The Board of Directors has set March 15, 2006 as the record date (the
"Record Date") to determine those holders of our common stock, (the "Common
Stock") who are entitled to notice of, and to vote at the Special Meeting. The
list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting may be examined at
our office during the 10-day period preceding the date of the Special Meeting.
The Company expects that the Notice of Special Meeting of Stockholders,
Proxy Statement and Proxy Card will first be mailed to stockholders on or about
April 26, 2006.
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING
WHO CAN VOTE?
You can vote your Common Stock, if our records show that you owned the
shares on the Record Date. As of the close of business on the Record Date, a
total of 30,934,366 shares of Common Stock (not including treasury shares) are
entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Each share of Common Stock is entitled
to one vote on matters presented at the Special Meeting.
HOW DO I VOTE BY PROXY?
Follow the instructions on the enclosed proxy card to vote on each proposal
to be considered at the Special Meeting. Sign and date the form of proxy (proxy
card) and mail it back to us in the enclosed envelope.
The enclosed proxy, when properly signed and returned to us, will be voted
by the proxy holders at the Special Meeting as specified on the form of proxy.
Proxies signed by stockholders but lacking any such specification will be voted
for the proposal set forth on the proxy card in the Notice of Special Meeting of
Stockholders.
WHAT IF OTHER MATTERS COME UP AT THE SPECIAL MEETING?
The matters described in this proxy statement are the only matters we know
of that will be voted on at the Special Meeting. If other matters are properly
presented at the Special Meeting, the proxy holders will vote your shares as
they see fit.
CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE AFTER I RETURN MY PROXY CARD?
Yes. A proxy card may be revoked by a stockholder at any time before its
exercise at the Special Meeting by giving our Secretary a written notice
revoking your proxy card or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by
attendance at the Special Meeting and voting in person.
CAN I VOTE IN PERSON AT THE SPECIAL MEETING RATHER THAN BY COMPLETING THE PROXY
CARD?
Although we encourage you to complete and return the proxy card to ensure
that your vote is counted, you can attend the Special Meeting and vote your
shares in person, allowing you to change your voting instructions on the proxy
card.
HOW ARE VOTES COUNTED?
We will hold the Special Meeting if holders of at least one-third of the
Common Stock entitled to vote at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy. If
you sign and return your proxy card, your shares will be counted to determine
whether we have a quorum, even if you abstain or fail to vote on the proposal
listed on the proxy card.
The proposal will be approved, if the number of votes cast in favor of the
proposal exceeds the number of votes cast against the proposal and a quorum
exists at the Special Meeting. An abstention will have no effect on the outcome
of the vote. Unless otherwise stated, the enclosed proxy will be voted in
accordance with the instructions thereon.
Brokers holding Common Stock in street name, who do not receive
instructions from the beneficial owners of those shares, are entitled to vote on
"routine" proposals such as the election of directors and the ratification of
our independent auditors. Under The American Stock Exchange rules, however,
brokers who do not receive instructions from the beneficial owners of such
shares are not entitled to vote on "non-routine" proposals, including the
proposal submitted by this Proxy Statement. This is called a "broker non-vote,"
which will have no legal effect on the vote on that matter.
2
WHO PAYS FOR THIS PROXY SOLICITATION?
We do. In addition to sending you these materials, some of our employees
may contact you by telephone, by mail, by fax, by email, or in person. None of
these employees will receive any extra compensation for doing this.
WHY ARE WE SEEKING STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL FOR THE PROPOSAL?
In connection with transactions with Cornell Capital Partners, LP and its
affiliates, we are seeking approval of the issuance of Common Stock that could
exceed 20% of the outstanding amount. The American Stock Exchange Company Guide
requires stockholders to approve any such issuance at a price less than market
value.
The Common Stock issuable pursuant to the transactions further described
under "Proposal 1" of this Proxy Statement, which, for this purpose, we
anticipate The American Stock Exchange will consider a single transaction, will
exceed, in the aggregate, 20% of our outstanding Common Stock and include shares
to be issued below market price. Therefore, our Board of Directors seeks
stockholder approval of the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to such
transactions.
IF THE PROPOSAL IS APPROVED, HOW WILL THE COMPANY USE THE PROCEEDS OF THE
TRANSACTIONS?
We anticipate that substantially all of the proceeds from these
transactions will be used to repay outstanding notes and for listing,
registration, and legal fees. We expect no significant amount of proceeds will
be available to us for other purposes.
3
OUTSTANDING SHARES AND VOTING RIGHTS
Stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are
entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting and any adjournment
or postponement thereof. Persons who are not stockholders of record on the
Record Date will not be allowed to vote at the Special Meeting. At the close of
business on the Record Date there were 30,934,366 shares of Common Stock
outstanding. We issued no other voting securities as of the Record Date. Each
share of issued and outstanding Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each
matter to be voted upon at the Special Meeting.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK
Our current authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, of which 30,934,366 shares were outstanding as of March 10, 2006,
and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, none of which were outstanding as of
March 10, 2006.
Each holder of our Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share held
of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Subject to the
preferential rights of the preferred stock, the holders of our Common Stock
shall be entitled to receive dividends, when and if declared by our board of
directors, out of our assets legally available therefor. In the event of our
liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after distribution in full of the
preferential amounts, if any, to be distributed to the holders of shares of our
preferred stock, our Common Stock holders shall be entitled to receive all of
our remaining assets of whatever kind available for distribution to
stockholders, ratably in proportion to the amounts of Common Stock held by them
respectively. Our Common Stock holders, as such, have no preemptive, or
preferential right or subscription right to any Common Stock or to any
obligations convertible into Common Stock, or to any warrant or option for the
purchase thereof, except to the extent, if any, provided by our written
agreement.

owner of more than five percent of the Common Stock; (ii) each of our directors;
(iii) each of our executive officers; and (iv) all directors and executive
officers as a group. Unless otherwise indicated, the stockholders listed in the
table have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares
indicated.

Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and generally includes
voting or investment power with respect to the shares shown. Subject to
community property laws where applicable, to our knowledge, the

respect to all Common Stock shown as beneficially owned by them. A person
is deemed to be the beneficial owner of securities that can be acquired by
such person within 60 days upon the exercise of options, warrants or
convertible securities (in any case, the "Currently Exercisable Options").
Each beneficial owner's percentage ownership is determined by assuming that
the Currently Exercisable Options that are held by such person (but not
those held by any other person) have been exercised and converted.

PROPOSAL 1
TO APPROVE THE ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK IN CONNECTION WITH TRANSACTIONS WITH
CORNELL CAPITAL PARTNERS, LP AND ITS AFFILIATES, INCLUDING SHARES (I) ISSUABLE
UPON CONVERSION OF THE COMPANY'S SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES; (II) ISSUABLE UPON
THE EXERCISE OF WARRANTS ISSUED TO THE INVESTOR WITH THE NOTES; (III) SECURING
THE COMPANY'S SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES; (IV) ISSUABLE TO PAY FOR LIQUIDATED
DAMAGES, IN LIEU OF CASH PAYMENTS, IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION
TO REGISTER CONVERSION SHARES AND WARRANT SHARES WITH THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION; AND (V) ISSUED AS COMPENSATION FOR SUCH TRANSACTIONS, TO
THE EXTENT SUCH ISSUANCES REQUIRE STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL UNDER THE AMERICAN STOCK
EXCHANGE RULES.
SUMMARY OF CURRENT TRANSACTIONS
On March 16, 2006, we entered a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
"Purchase Agreement") with Cornell Capital Partners, LP ("Cornell Capital" or
the "Investor") and Highgate House Funds, Ltd. ("Highgate"), an affiliate of
Cornell Capital, for us to issue up to $650,000 in the aggregate principal
amount of secured convertible notes (the "New Notes") to the Investor. We plan
to close this transaction as soon as practicable, once we obtain stockholder
approval of the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the transactions. If
stockholder approval is not obtained, the Purchase Agreement provides for a
closing on June 14, 2006, but the Investor will not be required to buy more than
$275,000 principal amount of New Notes.
The New Notes become due on the three-year anniversary of their issuance
date (the "Maturity Date") and accrue interest at 7% annually. The New Notes are
convertible into Common Stock at a per share conversion price equal to the lower
of (a) $0.268, as adjusted for anti-dilution (the "Fixed Conversion Price"), and
(b) 95% of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Common Stock, as
reported by Bloomberg, LP, for the 30 trading days immediately before the date
on which the Investor converts (such price, the "Market Conversion Price" and,
with the Fixed Conversion Price and the Market Conversion Price, the "Conversion
Price").
We may, in our sole discretion at any time, redeem any or all of the New
Notes by paying the principal amount being redeemed with accrued interest, and a
20% premium on the principal, if the closing bid price of the Common Stock is
less than the Fixed Conversion Price at the time we give the redemption notice.
The New Notes will be secured by (a) substantially all of our assets and
the assets of our direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, City Network
Technology, Inc., City Network, Inc. - Taiwan, and City Construction Co., Ltd.,
(b) 4,445,455 shares of Common Stock held in escrow and securing our Original
Notes, as further described below under "Summary of Prior Transactions", and (c)
if we issue over $275,000 in aggregate principal amount of the New Notes
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, a pledge of 2,000,000 additional shares of
Common Stock to be issued by us and held in escrow (all such pledged shares, the
"Pledged Shares"). Any Pledged Shares released to the Investor will be subject
to demand registration rights.
Upon closing the transactions completed by the Purchase Agreement, we will
issue five-year warrants (the "New Warrants") to the Investor to purchase up to
1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.001 per share.
We entered a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investor pursuant to
which we are required to file a registration statement with the SEC (the
"Registration Statement") registering the Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the New Notes and exercise of the New Warrants, in full. If the Registration
Statement is not filed within 30 days after the date we issue the New Notes (the
"Filing Date"), or is not declared effective by the SEC within 120 days of the
6
Filing Date, we must pay liquidated damages, in cash or Common Stock, at the
Investor's option, in an amount equal to 2% of the value of the New Notes for
each 30 day delay. The liquidated damages are capped at 20% of the aggregate
face value of the New Notes. We will be in default of the New Notes, if we do
not file the registration statement within 60 days after closing, or it is not
declared effective within 180 days after the Filing Date.
The Investor may not convert any principal amount under the New Notes or
exercise the New Warrant if, upon such conversion or exercise, the Investor
would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock following
such conversion or exercise. Until 18 months after the date of the Purchase
Agreement, the Investor will have a right of first refusal on any transaction in
which we issue capital stock.
We paid Yorkville Advisors LLC, an affiliate of Cornell Capital, a
structuring fee equal to $10,000, upon signing the definitive documents for the
transactions, and are required to pay a commitment fee out of the gross proceeds
of the New Notes of up to $40,000, or 10% of the principal amount greater than
$250,000, upon the issuance of the New Notes.
Upon closing of the sale of the New Notes, $275,000 of the proceeds will he
used to repay the principal of and interest accrued on the Original Notes, which
otherwise are due in 2006. Accordingly, we are paying off the Original Notes,
because they are due this year, whereas the New Notes will not become due for
three years. We are not now subject to any penalties under the Original Notes
and will not be subject to any penalties under the Original Notes, unless we
fail to consummate the sale of New Notes by June 14, 2006, in which case,
thereafter, 2%-per-month registration delinquency penalties would begin to
accrue pursuant to the prior transaction.
If stockholders do not approve the proposal being submitted by this proxy
statement, and the Investor elects to buy only $275,000 of New Notes, no sale
proceeds will be available to us for any other purpose. In that case, we would
pay American Stock Exchange listing fees, SEC registration fees, and legal fees
from current cash balances. If stockholders approve the proposal, the Investor
will buy $650,000 principal amount of New Notes. We anticipate that, after
applying $275,000 of sale proceeds to repay the Original Notes, the remaining
proceeds will be used to pay American Stock Exchange listing fees, legal fees,
and SEC registration fees, and, accordingly, no significant proceeds will he
available to us to fund operations or for other purposes.
A copy of the Purchase Agreement has been filed as an exhibit to our
Amendment No. 1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 16, 2006 (filed
April 4, 2006).
SUMMARY OF PRIOR TRANSACTIONS
On August 10, 2005, we entered a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
"Original Purchase Agreement"), with Highgate and, pursuant thereto, in August
2005 and December 2005, issued two secured convertible notes, in aggregate
principle amount of $250,000 (the "Original Notes"). We will use approximately
$275,000 in net proceeds from the New Notes to repay the Original Notes,
including accrued interest. We will not pay a redemption premium upon our
repayment of the Original Notes.
In connection with the Original Purchase Agreement, Highgate received a
warrant to purchase up to 25,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Original
Warrant"), and we entered a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement (the "SEDA")
with Cornell Capital. Monitor Capital, Inc. received 44,455 shares of Common
Stock to act as a placement agent for us in connection with the SEDA. Cornell
Capital received 977,273 shares of Common Stock as compensation for entering the
SEDA. Upon the issuance of the New Notes, Cornell Capital and we will terminate
the SEDA, and Cornell Capital will return to us its 977,273 shares for
cancellation.
WHY WE NEED STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL - THE AMERICAN STOCK EXCHANGE COMPANY GUIDE
RULE 713
In connection with the transactions with Cornell Capital, we are seeking
approval of the issuance of Common Stock that could exceed 20% of the
outstanding amount. The American Stock Exchange Company Guide requires
stockholders to approve any such issuance at a price less than market value.
The Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the foregoing transactions
or convertible notes or warrants issued pursuant thereto (collectively, the
"Transaction Shares"), which, for this purpose, we anticipate The American Stock
Exchange will consider a single transaction, will exceed, in the aggregate, 20%
of our outstanding Common Stock and include shares to be issued below market
price. Therefore, our Board of Directors seeks stockholder approval of the
issuance of such Transaction Shares.
7
CONSEQUENCES OF THE FAILURE TO OBTAIN STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL
Without such stockholder approval, Cornell Capital may elect to buy New
Notes in the principal amount of only $275,000, the entire proceeds of which
would be used to repay the Original Notes. In that case, we would not need to
issue 2,000,000 shares that would have been required to secure the principal
amount of New Notes exceeding $275,000. However, the 4,445,455 shares currently
in escrow pursuant to the prior transaction will remain in escrow to secure the
principal amount of New Notes up to $275,000. Thus, if stockholders approve the
transactions being submitted, so that $650,000 in New Notes is sold to the
Investor, a total 6,445,455 shares will secure the New Notes, but, if the
transactions are not approved, only $275,000 in New Notes will be issued, which
will be secured with 4,445,455 shares.
FACTORS AFFECTING CURRENT STOCKHOLDERS - POTENTIAL DILUTION AND MARKET
CONSEQUENCES
While the Board of Directors unanimously approved the issuance of all of
the Transaction Shares and resolved that these transactions are in its and its
stockholders' best interests, our stockholders should consider the following
possible factors as well as other information contained in the Proxy Statement
in evaluating this Proposal.
The issuance of the Transaction Shares could substantially dilute the
interests of our other stockholders, but sales of the Transaction Shares could
encourage short sales by the stockholders and others, placing further downward
pressure on our stock price. The effect on our stock price could increase the
number of shares required to be issued upon conversion of the New Notes or upon
exercise of the New Warrants or Original Warrant. The holders of the New Notes,
the New Warrants, and the Original Warrants have agreed to not hedge their
positions.
The Investor may not convert any principal amount under the New Notes or
exercise the New Warrants if, upon such conversion or exercise, the Investor,
together with its affiliates, would beneficially own at any time more than 4.99%
of the outstanding Common Stock following such conversion or exercise. This
restriction does not prevent the Investor from selling a substantial number of
shares in the market. By periodically selling Common Stock into the market, an
individual holder could eventually sell more than 4.99% of Common Stock while
never holding more than 4.99% at any specific time.
REQUIRED VOTE
Ratification and approval of issuance of the Transaction Shares under The
American Stock Exchange rules, requires that the number of votes cast in favor
of the proposal exceeds the number of votes cast against the proposal at the
Special Meeting, provided that a quorum exists.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE ABOVE PROPOSAL.

MISCELLANEOUS
2006 STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
Rule 14a-4 of the SEC proxy rules allows us to use discretionary voting
authority to vote on matters coming before an annual meeting of stockholders if
we do not have notice of the matter at least 45 days before the date
corresponding to the date on which we first mailed its proxy materials for the
prior year's annual meeting of stockholders or the date specified by an
overriding advance notice provision in our bylaws. Our bylaws do not contain
such an advance notice provision.
The Annual Meeting of Stockholders for the fiscal year ending December 31,
2006 is expected to be held in December 2006. The Proxy Statement and Proxy Card
will be sent to stockholders in an initial mailing on or about December 5, 2006.
Proposals of stockholders pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act intended to
be presented at our 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must be received by us
no later than August 4, 2006. Such proposals must comply with the requirements
as to form and substance established by the SEC for such proposals in order to
be included in the proxy statement.
A stockholder who wishes to make a proposal at our 2006 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders without including the proposal in our proxy statement and proxy
card for such meeting must notify us no later than October 20, 2006. Under our
current bylaws, for our 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, stockholders must
submit such written notice to our Secretary, on or before October 20, 2006 and
include as to each matter the stockholder wishes to be brought before the Annual
Meeting: (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before
the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual
meeting, (ii) the name and record address of the stockholder proposing such
business, (iii) the class and number of our shares which are beneficially owned
by the stockholder, and (iv) any material interest of the stockholder in such
business. Such proposals must also meet the other requirements of the rules of
the SEC relating to stockholder proposals.

OTHER BUSINESS
Management is not aware of any matters to be presented for action at the
Special Meeting, except matters discussed in the Proxy Statement. If any other
matters properly come before the meeting, it is intended that the shares
represented by proxies will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the
persons voting the proxies.
