The Board of Directors and Committees
Board Composition
Subject to certain exceptions, under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”), a listed company’s board of directors must consist of a majority of independent directors. We are exempt from this requirement because we are considered a “controlled company” pursuant to Section 801(a) of the AMEX Company Guide as one of our shareholders, KGE Group Limited, owns more than 50% of our voting power. Our Board of Directors has determined that three of the six members of our Board of Directors are independent under the listing standards of AMEX, as follows: Zheng Jinfeng, Zhao Bao Jiang and Kelly Wang.
Audit Committee
We established our audit committee in July 2007. The audit committee consists of Zheng Jinfeng, Zhao Bao Jiang, and Kelly Wang, each of whom is an independent director. Kelly Wang is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K. The purpose of the audit committee is to represent and assist our board of directors in its general oversight of our accounting and financial reporting processes, audits of the financial statements and internal control and audit functions. The audit committee’s responsibilities include:
· | The appointment, replacement, compensation, and oversight of work of the independent auditor, including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting, for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services. |
· | Reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor various topics and events that may have significant financial impact on our company or that are the subject of discussions between management and the independent auditors. |
Our Board of Directors does not maintain a separate nominating or compensation committee. Functions and duties customarily performed by such committees are performed by a majority of our independent directors in compliance with the requirements for listing on AMEX. Such responsibilities include:
· | The design, review, recommendation and approval of compensation arrangements for our directors, executive officers and key employees, and for the administration of any equity incentive plans, including the approval of grants under any such plans to our employees, consultants and directors. |
· | The review and determination of compensation of our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer. |
· | The selection of director nominees, the approval of director nominations to be presented for shareholder approval at our annual general meeting and filling of any vacancies on our board of directors, the consideration of any nominations of director candidates validly made by shareholders, and the review and consideration of developments in corporate governance practices. |
Section 16(A) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers to file reports of holdings and transactions in our stock with the SEC. Based on a review of written representations from our executive officers and directors, other than (i) a joint Form 3 and one transaction on a joint Form 5 for shares beneficially owned by KGE Group Limited, Luo Ken Yi, Tang Nianzhong, and Ye Ning and (ii) a Form 3 for each of Li Guoxing, Bai Fei, Wang Zairong, Feng Shu, Zheng Jinfeng, Zhao Bao Jiang, and Kelly Wang, we believe that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, our directors, officers and owners of more than 10% of our common stock complied with all applicable filing requirements.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Our board of directors has adopted a code of ethics, which applies to all our directors, officers and employees. Our code of ethics is intended to comply with the requirements of Item 406 of Regulation S-K. Our code of ethics is posted on our Internet website at www.caebuilding.com. We will provide our code of ethics in print without charge to any stockholder who makes a written request to: Chief Financial Officer, China Architectural Engineering, Inc., 105 Baishi Road, Jiuzhou West Avenue, Zhuhai 519070, People’s Republic of China. Any waivers of the application and any amendments to our code of ethics must be made by our board of directors.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chairman of the Board, Luo Ken Yi, determined the compensation for our current executive officers that was earned and paid in fiscal 2007 and 2006 and our Board of Directors approved the compensation. Compensation for our current executive officers is determined with the goal of attracting and retaining high quality executive officers and encouraging them to work as effectively as possible on our behalf. Key areas of corporate performance taken into account in setting compensation policies and decisions are growth of sales, cost control, profitability, and innovation. The key factors may vary depending on which area of business a particular executive officer’s work is focused on. Compensation is designed to reward executive officers for successfully meeting their individual functional objectives and for their contributions to our overall development. For these reasons, the elements of compensation of our executive officers are salary and bonus.
Salary is paid to cover an appropriate level of living expenses for the executive officers and the bonus is paid to reward the executive officer for individual and company achievement. Accordingly, the amount of salary received by our executive officers has traditionally been lower than the amount of the bonus. For fiscal 2007, Luo Ken Yi, Ye Ning and Tang Nianzhong received a salary of $57,423, $49,220, and 49,220, respectively, as compared to $53,786, $46,102, and $38,418, respectively, for fiscal 2006.
With respect to the amount of a bonus, Luo Ken Yi evaluates our company’s achievements for the fiscal year based on performance factors and results of operations such as revenues generated, cost of revenues, net income, and whether we obtain significant contracts. Luo Ken Yi also conducts a monthly and annual evaluation of the achievement level of an executive based on individual performance measurements, such as contribution to the achievement of the company’s goals and individual performance metrics based on their positions and responsibilities. Bonuses are paid at the end of each fiscal year. For the fiscal 2007, Luo Ken Yi received a bonus of $nil, as compared to a bonus of $159,245 received for fiscal 2006. Each of Ye Ning and Tang Nianzhong received a bonus of $nil and $nil, as compared to bonuses of $72,354 and $79,402, respectively, for fiscal 2006. Since all three executives became shareholders of a public company, they decided not to accept any bonus in 2007.
We believe that the salaries paid to our executive officers during 2007, 2006, and 2005 are indicative of the objectives of our compensation program and reflect the fair value of the services provided to our company, as measured by the local market in China, Hong Kong, the United States and those other areas where our executive officers may work. We determine market rate by conducting a comparison with the local geographic area averages and industry averages these countries. Since we have become a publicly reporting company, we have no specific plans to provide raises. Although no specific plans have yet been discussed, we may adopt such a plan to provide raises to our executive officers in the future. Adopting higher compensation in the future may be based on the increased amount of responsibilities to be assumed by each of the executive officers as we expand our operations and continue as a publicly reporting company.
Executive compensation for 2008 will follow the same evaluation methods as were used for 2007. We may adjust our bonus evaluations upwards, but, in such case, we do not intend to increase it by more than 10%. That determination would likely be made towards the end of the fiscal year. We may also expand the scope of our compensation, such as the possibility of granting options to executive officers and tying compensation to predetermined performance goals.
Our board of directors does not currently have a compensation committee. We anticipate that our board of directors will establish a compensation committee in fiscal 2008 that will be comprised of non-employee members of our board of directors. Our current expectation is that the compensation committee of our board of directors will perform, at least annually, a strategic review of the compensation program for our executive officers to determine whether it provides adequate incentives and motivation to our executive officers and whether it adequately compensates our executive officers relative to comparable officers in other companies with which we compete for executives. Those companies may or may not be public companies or companies located in the PRC or even, in all cases, companies in a similar business. Until such time as a formal compensation program and committee is established, which we expect will occur in 2008, the independent directors of our board of directors will approve the structure. After the compensation committee is formed, it will determine the structure. Our board has established a compensation program for executive officers for 2008 that is designed to attract, as needed, individuals with the skills necessary for us achieve our business plan, to motivate those individuals, to reward those individuals fairly over time, and to retain those individuals who continue to perform at or above the levels that we expect. For 2008, bonuses for executive officers will be based on company and individual performance factors, as described above, and will be based on a formula such that the amount of the bonus will be equal to the lower of a pre-determined dollar amount or a percentage of revenues and net income.

Mr. Anderson will receive a cash payment equal to one-half percent (0.50%) of Employee Sales up to $20 million per annum. Mr. Anderson’s commission rate is adjusted to one-quarter percent (0.25 %) for Employee Sales in excess of $20 million per annum. Mr. Anderson will receive his commission payments in three installments, as follows: (i) the first payment will be 50% of the total commissions for a contract and will be paid once we receive the first payment from the customer, provided that, however, the first payment on each contract cannot exceed a total of US$100,000; (ii) the second payment will be 80% of total commissions, on a cumulative basis, of a such contract, including any amounts paid in the first payment, and will be paid once we receive payment of at least 50% of the total payments due under the contract; and (iii) the third and final payment will be for the remaining 20% of the total commissions for the contract and will be paid once we receive the last payment from the customer.
Mr. Anderson will also receive each year a number of shares of our common stock that is equal to (i) twice the amount of Mr. Anderson’s total commissions on US sales for the year divided by (ii) the closing trading price of our common stock on December 31 on such year; provide that, however, the US sales for purposes of this calculation will be capped at $50 million. All shares received by Mr. Anderson will be subject to a twelve-month lock up restriction. Mr. Anderson will be eligible to receive an annual bonus at the sole discretion of the Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors.

We have a policy to pay our non-employee directors $20,000 per year as cash consideration for serving on the Board of Directors. We further agree to reimburse all reasonable travel and other expenses incurred for attendance at a board or committee meeting, and we agree to pay the fees and documented reimbursements within a reasonable time and in accordance with our current payment practices. Directors are also eligible to participate in our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. To date, we have not granted any options to Directors, but may do so in the future.
2007 Equity Incentive Plan
We adopted the China Architectural Engineering, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Plan in July 2007. The equity incentive plan became effective upon adoption and will terminate upon the earliest of (i) the expiration of the 10-year period measured from the date we adopted the plan, (ii) the date on which all shares available under the plan have been issued as vested shares, or (iii) the termination of all outstanding options in connection with a change in our ownership or control. The equity incentive plan authorizes the issuance of options to purchase shares of common stock under the Option Grant Program and the grant of stock awards under the Stock Issuance Program. Under the Option Grant Program no option will have a term in excess of 10 years measured from the date the option is granted and no participant can receive more than 2,000,000 shares in any calendar year. Under the Stock Issuance Program, shares of our common stock may be issued through direct and immediate issuance without any intervening options grants.
Administration of the equity incentive plan is carried out by our Board of Directors or any committee of the Board of Directors to which the Board of Directors has delegated all or a portion of responsibility for the implementation, interpretation or administration of the equity incentive plan. Our employees, officers and directors (including employees, officers and directors of our affiliates) are eligible to participate in the equity incentive plan. The administrator of the equity incentive plan will select the participants who are granted stock options or stock awards and, consistent with the terms of the equity incentive plan, will establish the terms of each stock option or stock award. The maximum period in which a stock option may be exercised will be fixed by the administrator. Under the equity incentive plan, the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be subject to stock options or stock awards is 5,000,000. As of December 31, 2007, we have not granted any securities under the equity incentive plan.

Indemnifications of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitations of Liability
Under Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, we can indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Our certificate of incorporation provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, our directors shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the directors’ fiduciary duty of care to our company and our stockholders. This provision in the certificate of incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of nonmonetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of the law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.
Our bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Our bylaws further provide that our Board of Directors has discretion to indemnify our officers and other employees. We are required to advance, prior to the final disposition of any proceeding, promptly on request, all expenses incurred by any director or executive officer in connection with that proceeding on receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of that director or executive officer to repay those amounts if it should be determined ultimately that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified under the bylaws or otherwise. We are not, however, required to advance any expenses in connection with any proceeding if a determination is reasonably and promptly made by our Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested Board members that (i) the party seeking an advance acted in bad faith or deliberately breached his or her duty to us or our stockholders and (ii) as a result of such actions by the party seeking an advance, it is more likely than not that it will ultimately be determined that such party is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to the applicable sections of our bylaws.
We have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
9
We may enter into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers that are, in some cases, broader than the specific indemnification provisions permitted by Delaware law, and that may provide additional procedural protection. We have not entered into any indemnification agreements with our directors or officers, but may choose to do so in the future. Such indemnification agreements may require us, among other things, to:
· | indemnify officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise because of their status as officers or directors; |
· | advance expenses, as incurred, to officers and directors in connection with a legal proceeding, subject to limited exceptions; or |
· | obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance. |
At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers or employees in which indemnification is sought, nor are we aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.
ITEM 12. | SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS |
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage of ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options and warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or become exercisable within 60 days of April 24, 2008 are deemed outstanding even if they have not actually been exercised. Those shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.
The following table sets forth certain information with respect to beneficial ownership of our common stock based on 51,783,416 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, by:
· | Each person known to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of the outstanding common stock of our company; |
· | Each executive officer; |
· | Each director; and |
· | All of the executive officers and directors as a group. |
The number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of April 24, 2008, excludes (i) 173,700 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, (ii) 6,006,749 shares of our common stock issuable upon the conversion of issued and outstanding bonds, subject to adjustment, (iii) 1,100,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants issued in connection with our issuance of bonds, subject to adjustment, and (iv) 5,000,000 shares of common stock that may be issued and granted under our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite the stockholder’s name, subject to community property laws, where applicable. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each stockholder listed in the table is c/o China Architectural Engineering, Inc., 105 Baishi Road, Jiuzhou West Avenue, Zhuhai, 519070, People’s Republic of China.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Full Art International, Ltd.
Full Art International, Ltd. (“Full Art”) is our wholly-owned subsidiary and has interlocking executive and director positions with China Architectural Engineering, Inc.
October 2006 Share Exchange
On October 17, 2006, we completed the Share Exchange pursuant to the share exchange agreement entered into with Full Art and KGE Group, Limited, which was the sole shareholder of Full Art. At the closing, Full Art became our wholly-owned subsidiary and 100% of the issued and outstanding securities of Full Art were exchanged for shares of our common stock. An aggregate of 45,304,125 shares of our common stock were issued to KGE Group and its designees. KGE Group owns 33,122,554 shares, which is approximately 64.0% of our issued and outstanding stock.

WestPark Capital, Inc.
WestPark Capital, Inc. was the placement agent for the $3,713,400 equity financing conducted by us on the close of the Share Exchange. For its services as placement agent, WestPark received an aggregate fee of approximately $445,608, which consisted of a commission equal to 9.0% of the gross proceeds from the financing and a non-accountable fee of 3% of the gross proceeds. Richard Rappaport, our President and one of our controlling stockholders prior to the Share Exchange, indirectly holds a 100% interest in WestPark Capital, Inc., an NASD member. Anthony C.

Each of Messrs. Rappaport and Pintsopoulos resigned from all of their executive and director positions with us upon the closing of the Share Exchange.
WestPark also acted as the managing underwriter for our initial public offering. Upon the closing of the offering in September 2007, we issued to WestPark warrants to purchase up to 73,700 shares of our common stock. The warrants are exercisable at a per share exercise price of $4.20, subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments for stock splits and similar transactions, and will expire after five years. The holders of shares of common stock acquired upon exercise of the warrants have the right to include such shares in any future registration statements filed by us and to demand one registration for the shares. In addition, we agreed to indemnify the underwriters against some liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof. We paid WestPark a non-accountable expense allowance of $77,385 and an underwriters’ discount of $296,643.
