Background Completed our IPO and simultaneous NASDAQ listing in 2008. Incorporated in Virginia and headquartered in New York. Started as a shipping agency service provider. Expanded our shipping agency network with the establishment of wholly - owned subsidiaries in China, HK, Australia and Canada. Historical profitability was negatively impacted by high operating costs and unfavorable currency translation (received US dollars and made payments in RMB) and slowdown in the Chinese economy. Initiated actions as part of a restructuring to return to profitability by cutting overhead and streamlining our shipping agency operation during fiscal year 2013. 9

 
 

Business Reorganization Received a $3 million investment in April 2013; and executed a 5 - year strategic agreement with the Zhiyuan Investment Group -- a company owned by our largest shareholder. Leveraging the support of the Zhiyuan Investment Group, we expanded our services platform by launching 2 new service lines: (i) shipping and chartering; and (ii) inland transportation management in fiscal year 2014. Reorganized our shipping agency business in fiscal year 2014 to focus on services with strong margins and profitability. Cut overhead and G&A expenses. Results : Expanded our service platform by adding 3 new services, improved profit margins and achieved six consecutive quarters of net income since 1QFY2014 . Established strategic partnership with Zhenghe Shipping and Mr. Deming Wang and subsequently acquired LSM, a ship management company from Mr. Wang in September 2014, which further expanded our service platform to offer ship management services. 10

 
 

New, Diversified Service Platform Inland Transportation Management Services (launched during the quarter ended December 31, 2013) Shipping and Chartering Services (launched during the quarter ended September 30, 2013) Shipping Agency (reorganized in fiscal year 2014 ) and Ship Management Services (added during the quarter ended September 30, 2014) 11

 
 

Current Strategic Focus Further diversify our revenue streams and identify growth opportunities to, among other items, reduce dependency on key customers Continue to improve our operating margin; maintain stringent cost control to enhance overall profitability Generate sustainable revenues from the inland transportation management services Further improve the gross margin of our shipping agency business 12

 
 

Near - term Strategic Plan  Expand our revenue streams and reduce our dependency on revenues generated from services in China  Proposed acquisition of Rong Zhou – a small oil/chemical tanker  Built in China in 2010  NK class  Hong Kong Flag  Good condition  In operation since 2012  FMV: $11.9 million (as of February 22, 2015)  Seller is asking for $10.5 million (cash and SINO common shares)  SINO plans to finance the proposed acquisition with proceeds from the public offering, and if necessary, debt financing and/or common shares. 13

 
 

Accretive Acquisition  Based on our due diligence, Rong Zhou (RZ) generated unaudited revenues of over $5 million and pretax income in excess of $2 million in calendar 2014  RZ is operating in a market segment in which specialty vessels are in demand; rates are relatively stable and likely to increase in 2016  SINO will manage the vessel internally; no significant overhead expected  RZ is expected to generate EBITDA of  $0.5 million in fiscal year 2015  $2.3 million in fiscal year 2016  Conclusion : SINO believes the acquisition of RZ will increase its revenues and net profitability, as well as enhancing its ability to generate sustainable earnings, strengthen its balance sheet and reduce its dependency on related parties. 14
