On December 21, 2016, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Andatee China Marine Fuel Services Corporation (the “Company”) approved the Company’s execution of a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with An Fengbin, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board (the “Purchaser”), with respect to the sale of 12,000,000 shares of its common stock (the “Common Stock”) at $0.05 per share (which represents an average closing price of the Company’s common stock over the ten day period preceding the Board approval of the investment) for the gross proceeds of $600,000. The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act), and the Company sold the securities in reliance upon an exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) and Rule 506 under the Securities Act. There were no discounts or brokerage fees associated with this offering. Nearly all of the proceeds from this investment will be used to pay the Company’s Delaware franchise tax liabilities, fees and expenses, with the remainder to be used for immediate general corporate and working capital purposes.

 

In addition, the Board approved the Company’s continued due diligence efforts with respect to several potential acquisition targets to explore feasibility of such acquisitions for further review and consideration by the Board.

 

Finally, the Board approved an appointment of Mr. Ji Ma as an independent member of the Board effective immediately. From 2013 to present, Mr. Ma served as Director of Sales BC at Manulife Private Wealth in Vancouver, Canada. From 2010 to 2013, he has served as Sales and Marketing Specialist at Manulife National Accounts.

Mr. Ma is an MBA candidate at Smith School of Business at Queen’s University (Ontario, Canada); he holds a Bachelor of Business Administration degree from Thompson Rivers University (British Columbia, Canada). Mr. Ma is a Certified Financial Planner, Chartered Life Underwriter, Chartered Financial Analyst (Level 1) and Chartered Investment Manager. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Ma and any other persons pursuant to which he was appointed as discussed above. Nor are there any family relationships between Mr. Ma and any executive officers and directors. Further, there are no transactions involving the Company and such persons which transaction would be reportable pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
