General Information

Pursuant to NASDAQ Stock Market Rule 5635, if the Company intends to issue (i) securities in a transaction which could result in the issuance of more than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the issuer’s common stock on a pre-transaction basis, or (ii) equity-based compensation to officers, directors, employees or consultants, for less than the greater of market or book value for such stock, then the issuer generally must obtain the prior approval of its stockholders before such issuance.

The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) unanimously approved, a series of agreements designed to reduce the overhang of the Company’s Series A, B, C, AA, BB and JJ warrants and to simplify the Company’s capital structure (the “Warrant Recapitalization”).  Fame Good International Limited (“Fame Good”), which is controlled by Xu Jie, the Company’s Chairman of the Board and controlling stockholder, owns Series A and B warrants and has agreed to participate in the Warrant Recapitalization on the same terms as the other Series A and B warrant holders.  Also, certain of the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders have previously served or currently serve as advisors to the Company.  These Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders will participate in the Warrant Recapitalization.  Under NASDAQ Stock Market Rule 5635 and related interpretations, the issuance of shares to Fame Good and to certain holders of the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants is considered to be equity-based compensation.  Also, as part of the Warrant Recapitalization, the Company will issue Common Stock that exceeds 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock.  These issuances of Common Stock require the approval of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to NASDAQ Stock Market Rule 5635.

On November 15, 2010, the stockholder holding 17,887,446 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 70.6% of the Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date, approved the issuances of Common Stock described above by written consent.  Accordingly, all necessary corporate approvals in connection with these issuances of Common Stock have been obtained and this Information Statement is furnished solely for the purpose of informing the stockholders of the Company in the manner required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  The general effect of the stockholder action is described below under the caption “ACTION:  APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK IN CONNECTION WITH THE WARRANT RECAPITALIZATION TRANSACTION.”

 
 

 

The Company knows of no other matters other than that described in this Information Statement which have been recently approved or considered by the holders of the Common Stock.

The Company has asked brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward this Information Statement to the beneficial owners of the Common Stock held of record by such persons and will reimburse such persons for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in forwarding such material.

Dissenters’ Right of Appraisal

Under the laws of the State of Nevada, our stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to the transactions described in this Information Statement.

Outstanding Shares and Voting Rights

The vote required to approve the issuances of Common Stock described in this Information Statement was the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company’s voting stock, which is the Company’s Common Stock.  Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Common Stock held.  As of the Record Date, the Company had 25,351,950 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

Section 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides in substance that unless the company’s articles of incorporation provide otherwise, any action permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power.  It also states that in no instance where action is authorized by written consent need a meeting of stockholders be called or notice given.

In order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in soliciting and obtaining proxies to approve the actions described herein and to effectuate such actions as early as possible to accomplish the purposes of the Company as hereafter described, the Board of Directors decided to seek the written consent of the stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power to approve such actions.

ACTION:
APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK IN CONNECTION WITH THE
WARRANT RECAPITALIZATION TRANSACTION

Overview of the Warrant Recapitalization

The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) unanimously approved transactions designed to reduce the overhang of the Company’s Series A, B, C, AA, BB and JJ warrants and to simplify the Company’s capital structure (the “Warrant Recapitalization”).  In connection with the Warrant Recapitalization, the Company expects to issue an aggregate of 7,153,065 shares of Common Stock (the “New Shares”) to warrant holders in exchange for warrants representing the right to purchase an aggregate amount of 12,137,234 shares of Common Stock.  Once all of the New Shares have been issued, the Company will have approximately 32,505,015 shares of Common Stock outstanding.  After the completion of the Warrant Recapitalization, the Company will have one Series A warrant outstanding representing the right to purchase 128,755 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.  The Company will no longer have any Series B, C, AA, BB or JJ warrants outstanding.

As part of the Warrant Recapitalization, the Board approved, subject to stockholder approval, the issuance of (i) a total of 1,956,952 shares of Common Stock to Fame Good in exchange for outstanding Series A and B warrants, and (ii) a total of 2,220,456 shares of Common Stock to the holders of the Company’s Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants in exchange for outstanding Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants.  The issuances of shares to Fame Good and the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders are subject to stockholder approval under NASDAQ Rules.

The Warrant Recapitalization will close in two steps.  The first step includes the issuance of Common Stock to the holders of Series A and B warrants, except Fame Good.  Since stockholder approval was not required for this step, the Company closed this step on December 13, 2010 and issued 2,975,657 shares of Common Stock on such date.  The second step will include the issuance of the shares of Common Stock to Fame Good and to the holders of Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders.  Since this step requires stockholder approval, this step will close on approximately ______________, which is the date when the stockholder approval described herein will become effective.

Shares of Common Stock to be issued to Fame Good

With respect to its Series A and Series B warrants, the Company entered into a warrant exchange agreement pursuant to which the Series A and Series B warrant holders agreed to exchange such warrants for the issuance by the Company of 0.5 shares of Common Stock per share of Common Stock underlying the warrant.  The warrant exchange agreement with the Series A and B warrant holders is attached hereto as Annex A.

On December 13, 2010, the Company closed on the warrant exchange with the Series A and B warrant holders, except Fame Good.  On such date, the Company issued a total of 2,975,657 shares of Common Stock in exchange for outstanding Series A and B warrants.  Once the written stockholder consent described herein becomes effective, the Company will issue 1,956,952 shares of Common Stock to Fame Good.  Fame Good will participate in the warrant exchange on the same terms as the other Series A and B warrant holders.

NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c) requires a company to obtain stockholder approval in connection with equity-based compensation pursuant to which stock may be acquired by officers, directors, employees or consultants for less than market or book value.  Under NASDAQ interpretations of this rule, NASDAQ does not attribute any value to the Series A and B warrants that are being exchanged for shares of the Company’s Common Stock.  Mr. Xu Jie, the Company’s Chairman, is the director and controlling stockholder of Fame Good and, as such, will be deemed to be a participant in the Warrant Recapitalization.  Thus, under NASDAQ Stock Market Rule 5635 and related interpretations, the issuance of shares of Common Stock to Fame Good is considered to be equity-based compensation and requires stockholder approval.

Shares of Common Stock to be issued to Series C, AA, BB and JJ Warrant Holders

With respect to its Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants, the Company entered into a warrant exchange agreement, pursuant to which it offered to exchange all or part of the warrants for the issuance by the Company of (i) 1.372921615 shares of Common Stock per share of Series C warrant stock; (ii) 0.8203 shares of Common Stock per share of Series AA and Series BB warrant stock; and (iii) 0.8288 shares of Common Stock per share of Series JJ warrant stock.  When the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant recapitalization closes, the Company expects to issue an additional 2,220,456 shares of Common Stock to the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders.  The warrant exchange agreement with the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders is attached hereto as Annex B.

NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c) requires a company to obtain stockholder approval in connection with equity based compensation pursuant to which stock may be acquired by officers, directors, employees or consultants for less than market or book value.  Under NASDAQ interpretations of this rule, NASDAQ does not attribute any value to the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants that are being exchanged for shares of the Company’s Common Stock.  Certain of the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders have previously served or currently serve as advisors to the Company.  These Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders will participate in the Warrant Recapitalization.  Under NASDAQ Stock Market Rule 5635 and related interpretations, the issuance of shares to these holders of the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants is considered to be equity-based compensation and requires stockholder approval.

NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(a)(1)(A) requires a company to obtain stockholder approval in connection with the issuance of securities in a transaction amounting to more than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the issuer’s common stock on a pre-transaction basis.  As of the Record Date, the Company had 25,351,950 shares of Common Stock outstanding.  The New Shares, when issued, will represent approximately 28.2% of the pre-transaction Common Stock.  Since the shares to be issued to Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders are above the 20% threshold, stockholder approval is required.

Applicable percentage ownership is based on 25,351,950 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date (November 24, 2010). Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of Common Stock that are currently issuable upon conversion or exercisable within 60 days of September 24, 2010, are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding such convertible securities or warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of such person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

(2)
These holders received shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A, Series B and Series J Warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock in a private placement transaction on February 7, 2007. In addition, we issued Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to certain of these holders in connection with the exercise of Series J Warrants, which expired on November 7, 2008. Until the preferred stock is converted or the warrants exercised, these holders have only limited voting rights with respect to the preferred stock and no voting rights with respect to the warrants. Because the preferred stock and warrants are presently convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, the holders are deemed to beneficially own such shares of Common Stock. It is for this reason that the percentages shown add to more than 100%.

(3)
Based on a Schedule 13G filed by The TCW Group, Inc. (“TCW”) with the SEC on February 10, 2009. TCW owns 563,176 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 858,369 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which collectively are convertible into 1,421,545 shares of our Common Stock. In addition, TCW holds Series A and B Warrants, which entitle it to purchase 515,021 and 515,021 shares of our Common Stock, respectively. The preferred stock and warrants are not convertible or exercisable, however, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion or exercise would exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock owned by TCW at such time, the number of shares of Common Stock which would result in TCW beneficially owning in excess of 9.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock. TCW may waive this ownership cap on 61 days’ prior notice to us. As a result of this ownership cap, TCW beneficially owns 2,871,936 shares of our Common Stock. TCW is deemed to beneficially own these securities, although record ownership of the securities is in the name of TCW Americas Development Association L.P. The address of TCW is 865 South Figueroa Street, Los Angeles, California 90017.

The preferred stock and warrants are not convertible or exercisable, however, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion or exercise would exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock owned by Citigroup at such time, the number of shares of Common Stock which would result in Citigroup beneficially owning in excess of 9.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock. Citigroup may waive this ownership cap on 61 days’ prior notice to us. As a result of this ownership cap, Citigroup beneficially owns 2,674,929 shares of our Common Stock. Citigroup is deemed to beneficially own these securities, although record ownership of the securities is in the name of Old Lane Cayman Master Fund, L.P., Old Lane US Master Fund, L.P. and Old Lane HMA Master Fund, L.P.
