Information Concerning the Board of Directors, Board Committees and Corporate Governance

 

Board Composition

 

Our Board of Directors consists of five directors. Our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, or an inter-dealer quotation system that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent. Under NASDAQ Rule 5605(a) (2) (A), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she also is an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Under such definition, our directors David Chen-Te Yen, Parashar Patel, Syuan-Jhu Lin and Tzu-Yung Hsu would not be considered independent because they also serve as either executive officers or employees of the Company. Our director Wan-Fang Liu would be considered independent. We are not currently required to comply with the director independence requirements of any national securities exchange. Prior to having our securities listed on any national securities exchange, we would be required to appoint directors who meet the independence requirements of the applicable exchange.

 

Committees of the Board

 

Since our Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, our Board of Directors has no immediate plans or need to establish an audit committee with a financial expert or a compensation committee to determine guidelines for determining the compensation of its executive officers or directors. For similar reasons, we have not adopted a written policy for considering recommendations from stockholders for candidates to serve as directors or with respect to communications from stockholders.

 

Board Meetings and Stockholder Communications

 

The Board of Directors conducted all of its business and approved all corporate actions during the year ended December 31, 2011 by the unanimous written consent of its members, in lieu of holding formal board meetings. Holders of the Company’s securities can send communications to the Board via mail or telephone to the Chief Executive Officer at the Company’s principal executive offices. The Company has not yet established a policy with respect to Board members’ attendance at the annual meetings. A stockholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our Chief Executive Officer at the address appearing on the first page of this annual report.

 

Family Relationships

 

None. 

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

We are not aware of any current conflicts of interest between our officers and directors, and us. However, certain potential conflicts of interests may arise in the future.

 

From time to time, one or more of our affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that we own and operate. These persons may continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with ours with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which our affiliates are associated. Our affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither we nor our stockholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.

 

Further, because we may transact business with some of our officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of our officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities. We believe that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated third parties.

 

Term of Office

 

Our directors are appointed for staggered three-year terms. Our officers are appointed by our Board of Directors and hold office until removed by the Board. All officers and directors listed above will remain in office until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. There are no agreements with respect to the election of directors.

3
 

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based solely on a review of copies of such forms submitted to the Company, we believe that all persons subject to the requirements of Section 16(a) filed such reports on a timely basis in 2011, with the exception of Mr. Chung Hua Yang, who filed his initial report on Form 3 on January 31, 2012 with respect to his ownership of shares of our Common Stock as of January 12, 2012, the date of his appointment as our Chief Financial Officer.

 

Code of Ethics

 

The Company has adopted a written code of ethics that applies to the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and any persons performing similar functions. The Company will provide a copy of its code of ethics to any person without charge upon written request addressed to 1021 Hill Street, Suite 200, Three Rivers, Michigan 49093.

 

ITEM 11.   EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

 

The following table shows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, certain compensation awarded or paid to, or earned by, our Chief Executive Officer, our President and our Chief Financial Officer.

In July 2010, two of our stockholders, David Chen-Te Yen and Yuan-Hao Chang, loaned us $300,000 and $200,000, respectively. David Chen-Te Yen is our President and the Chairman of our Board of Directors, and owns approximately 42.1% of our Common Stock. These loans were evidenced by demand promissory notes bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum, compounded daily. The $300,000 loan from David Chen-Te Yen was repaid in December 2010; accrued interest of $8,482 remains unpaid at December 31, 2011. The $200,000 loan from Yuan-Hao Chang was repaid on November 1, 2011; accrued interest of $20,077 remains unpaid at December 31, 2011.

 

At December 31, 2011, David Chen-Te Yen and Mr. Yuan-Hao Chang, our Public Relations Consultant, had advanced the Company $32,744 and $63,964, respectively, to support our operations in Taiwan; and Mr. Patel had advanced the Company $3,283. These advances are due upon demand and are non-interest bearing.

 

Each member of our Board of Directors (two of whom, Mr. Patel and Mr. Yen are also executive officers of the Company) acquired shares or our Common Stock in our 2010 private placement, as follows: (i) David Chen-Te Yen, 20,000,000 shares for $400,000; (ii) Parashar Patel, 100,000 shares for $2,000; and (iii) Syuan-Jhu Lin, Wan-Fang Liu and Tzu Yung Hsu, 1,500,000 shares each, for $30,000 from each director.

 

We have entered into employment agreements with Mr. Yang, our Chief Financial Officer, and Ms. Lin, who serves as the manager of the branch office we recently formed in Taiwan. Each of these agreements may be terminated on 30-days’ notice by either party. Mr. Hsu had a similar employment agreement that was terminated when he stepped down as manager of the branch in September 2011.

 

We paid compensation to three of our directors during 2011, which information is disclosed herein in the chart appearing under the caption “Director Compensation”.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2011, Mr. Chang, our consultant, purchased $978 of art work from the Company.

 

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

 

We do not currently have formal policies and procedures for the review, approval, or ratification of transactions with related persons. However, our Board carefully reviews all transactions between the Company and related persons to determine whether the relationship is in the best interest of the Company and that the terms of any agreement are no less favorable to the Company then they would be if the relationship was with an unrelated third party.

 

Except as otherwise indicated herein, there have been no related party transactions, or any other transactions or relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K. 

 

Our Board of Directors consists of five directors. Our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, or an inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent. Under NASDAQ Rule 5605(a) (2) (A), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she also is an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Under such definition, our directors, David Chen-Te Yen, Parashar Patel, Syuan-Jhu Lin and Tzu-Yung Hsu would not be considered independent as they also serve as either executive officers or employees of the Company. Our director Wan-Fang Liu would be considered independent. We are not currently required to comply with the director independence requirements of any national securities exchange. Prior to having our securities listed on any national securities exchange, we would be required to appoint directors who meet the independence requirements of the applicable exchange.

 

ITEM 14.   PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

 

Our Board of Directors was directly responsible for interviewing and retaining our independent accountant, Yichien Yeh, CPA, and his predecessor, Gruber and Company, LLC, considering the accounting firms’ independence and effectiveness, and pre-approving the engagement fees and other compensation to be paid to, and the services to be conducted by, the independent accountants. Our Board did not delegate these responsibilities. During 2011 and 2010, our Board of Directors pre-approved all of the services described below.
