On June
17, 2009, pursuant to a Stock Subscription Agreement dated the same date, we
sold 5,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock to our Chief Executive
Officer, Min-Tan Yang. The stock was sold for $0.18 per share for an
aggregate purchase price of $900,000. Mr. Yang paid for the stock in
cash. The stock was issued without registration under the Securities
Act of 1933 in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act. The Stock Subscription Agreement is attached to this report as
Exhibit 10.1. As a result of Mr. Yang’s purchase, the number of
shares of our common stock beneficially owned by him increased from 11,255,538
shares to 16,255,538 shares. Mr. Yang’s percentage share of the Company’s voting
stock increased from 45% to 54%. Under our articles of incorporation
and Florida corporation law, certain significant actions of the Company, such as
merger, sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, and amendment of
our articles of incorporation, require the approval of the holders of 50% or
more of our Common Stock. As a result of this increase in Mr. Yang’s ownership
percentage, he now beneficially owns a sufficient number of shares to approve
these transactions by himself.
The
purpose of the stock sale to Mr. Yang was to provide capital to finance the
costs of a privatization transaction pursuant to which we expect to deregister
from the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934. The deregistration transaction was approved by our Board of
Directors on June 11, 2009, and earlier by a committee of the Board made up of
independent directors who have no economic interest in the
transaction. The privatization and deregistration transaction is
described in further detail in the Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule
14C filed with the Commission on the same date as this report. As a
necessary step of the privatization transaction, CEO Yang and our Chairman of
the Board, Suang-Yi Pai, in their capacity as shareholders owning 67% of our
common stock, signed a written consent on June 17, 2009 that approved amendments
to our articles of incorporation that would effect a 5,000 for 1 reverse stock
split of the Company’s common stock, followed by a 1 for 5,000 forward stock
split. In compliance with a waiting period under Florida law, the
written consent provides that the amendments may not be filed with the Florida
Secretary of State until 25 days after the final Information Statement relating
to the privatization transaction has been filed with the Commission and made
available to shareholders.
