Rule 14a-8 Stockholder Proposal Deadline

 

The 2016 Annual Meeting date represents a change of more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Company’s 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As a result, under Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the deadline for the receipt of any stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2016 Annual Meeting is required to be a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail the proxy materials. Taking into consideration the time and process for addressing any deficiencies in proposals that may be submitted, the Company has determined that May 31, 2016 should be the deadline for receipt of proposals pursuant to Rule 14a-8. Such proposals should be delivered to: 15 Huangpu Science and Technology Park, Jiang’an, Wuhan, China, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Such proposals will need to comply with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in the Company’s proxy materials, and may be omitted if not in compliance with applicable requirements.
