EXPLANATORY NOTE TO 10K/A
The purposes of this Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report on Form 10K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 (the “Report”) of Shengtai Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 28, 2010 (the “Original Filing”), to: (1) amend Part III, Item 11 to revise the Summary Compensation Table and include disclosures on the decrease of base salaries of Mr. Qingtai Liu and Mr. Yongqiang Wang, and (2) update the Exhibit Index and file Exhibits 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7. All other information contained in the Report remains unchanged.
Except for the amendments described above, the information in this Amendment No. 1 has not been updated to reflect events that occurred after September 28, 2010, the filing date of the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment No.1 should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, including any amendments to those filings.
PART III
Item 11. Executive Compensation.
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
We endeavor to provide our “named executive officers,” as defined in Item 402 of Regulation S-K, with a competitive base salary that is in- line with their roles and responsibilities when compared to peer companies of comparable size in the same or similar locality.
It is not uncommon for PRC private corporations in that locality to have base salaries as the sole and only form of compensation. The base salary level is established and reviewed based on the level of responsibilities, the experience and tenure of the individual and the current and potential contributions of the individual. The base salary is compared to the list of similar positions within comparable peer companies and with consideration of the executive’s relative experience in his or her position. Base salaries are reviewed periodically and at the time of promotion or other changes in responsibilities.
We plan to implement a more comprehensive compensation program, which takes into account other elements of compensation, including without limitation, short and long term compensation, cash and non-cash, and other equity-based compensation such as stock options. This compensation program shall be comparative to our peers in the industry and aimed to retain and attract talented individuals.
We have formed a Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors comprised solely of independent directors to oversee the compensation of our named executive officers. The members of our Compensation Committee are Fei He (Chairman), Yaojun Liu and Winfred Lee. The Board has determined that all members of the compensation committee are independent directors under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market or NYSE Amex, as applicable. The compensation committee administers the Company’s benefit plans, reviews and administers all compensation arrangements for executive officers, and establishes and reviews general policies relating to the compensation and benefits of our officers and employees. The compensation committee operates under a written charter that is made available on the website mentioned above.
